"Mr. Mays is farmer" says the
Lakeland Telegram, though we doubt
if he lays his hand to the pillow ex-
cept in a fgurative sense" This re-
fers to Mr.. Dannett Mays of Month
cello, who is considering the advisa-
bility of running for congress in the
Second district against Frank Clark,
who is only "the friend of the far
mer." The notion that Mr.. Mays is
farmer is mistake; he is a plan
ter; has broad acres which he lets out
to renters. He lives in town and
wears store clothes, and at this sea-
son of the year goes bird shooting,
once and occasionally. But Mr.. Mays,
while planter, is really a farmer
on large scale-a sort of elongated
farmer, who loves Washington and
the society of men who know how to
work the tillers of the soil to an Off
cial finish.

RELIGION NOT HIS
PROPER FIELD.

Thoughtful men of science have
no faith in magic or MIRACLES says
DR.. Charles W. Eliot in a recent ar
ticle on the Future of Religion"
But perhaps this is because men of
science are too superstitious. The
superstition of scientists is Science.
And Science in the past century has
changed thousand times more than
religion has changed. 1t has changed
more often. And it rs subject to
more changes from it's present form.
Yet always at given hour men
will talk of Science" and "men of
science" as if this wavering luminous
cloud were central and unchanea-
BILE sun.
Men of science, as class, had for
long time no faith in ultraviolet
rays or heavier than air flying ma
chimes or the telephone or the wire
less telegraph. We can safely leave
the development and exposition of re-
Egious subjects to people of religi-
Gus temperament, at least until men
of science become more dependable
in their own field.
DIR. Eliot belongs to a class of
thoughtful men of science" who deny
the most stupendous fact of history
the divinity of Jesus Christ. Until
he accepts this one fact, around which
centers the religious faith of Chris
tendon and which "men of science"
have been unable to disprove, there
will be found nothing inconsistent in
religion that accepts both science
and religion.

Washington.-A model of the Pana.
ma canal which probably will be more
than five hundred feet long will be
the governments largest and most
elaborate individual exhibit at the
Panama-Pacifc exposition at San
Francisco in 1915. From this model,

get a clearer and more comprehensive
idea of the canal and of its workings
than by an actual visit to the canal
itself. Almost at a glance one will get
from the huge model a bird's-eye view
of the canal in all its details.

Immediately behind their plans, but
behind the $5,OO0,0OO are limitless re-
sources. These men are out to ex-
terminate the loan sharks-every va
riety and kind of them in large CT
ties and small.
This is not to be a mere charity,
but real philanthropy, in the literal
meaning of that word. 1t seems to
be work inspired by "love of man."
A man will be loaned money if he
has the Endorsement of another wage
Garner of good repute, and is able
to satisfy the bank that the money
is wanted for some legitimate pur-
pose. The money is not to be given
in charity, but lent in philanthropy.
The stockholders will be allowed only
six per cent return on their stock
investment, and the interest rate on
loans will be the lowest possible.
The banks will also sell certificates
to working people on small weekly or
monthly payments-the certificates
bringing five per cent to the holder.
The smallest loan can be secured, and
the smallest saving can be registered.

of the loan-sharks; the poor made
poorer, the sad made to sorrow more,
the respondent made more despairing
the horrors of peonage and bondage
for people who needed comfort and
help! And the one excuse of the loan
vultures was "No one else will lend
these poor any money, even when
they must have money" Men always
think their pet evil is a necessary

Now there will not be that miser-
