All the signs of the time point to deep
ening of religion. Eucken says our contempt
raneous religious life is of the shallowest
things imaginable. Many are becoming dissat-
isfied with it and are seeking something more
likely to answer the needs Of being so many

Paul says of the Jewish laws of morality
and ceremonialism that they are the School
master" to lead him to Christ" There is a
sense in which this thought Of Paurs may be
applied to the world as whole. It's functions
seem to be to awaken and stimulate the sense
of needs which the Infinite alone can satisfy.
The world stirs our love of beauty. It's sun
sets and sunrises, its far vistas, it's night of
stars, its day of wonderful skies and clouds, its
feast of sound (which are all music to healthy

birds, the call of the human voice and orchestral

Him "who hath made all things beautiful"
The world arouses in us desire for wisdom.
Human intellects often amaze us by their power.
The accumulated knowledge of the race is stu

less the worlds wisdom arouses in something

does little more than create in us desire which
can only be met by the perfect wisdom of the
Absolute.
So also is it with friendship Contact with
others cultivates love for them and desire
for their companionship. We grow more and

and improves, the more it has to offer, the more
powerful are its appeals the deeper will be the

drainage grill will be built at the point where the
stream shoots into it's underground tunnel. huge
concrete monoliths will be built in a semi-circe
above the drainage board. These pillars Will pre-
vent the clogging up of the river tunnel by drift
wood
This means that, in case of large flood. the
cultivated land inside the reservoir will be
inundated According to the law, farmers will
be COMPENSATED for whatever damage done them
at such times If they do not agree to such a
proposition, the land will be condemned, taken
over by the state, and by it leased to farmers.
This land can be used for farm purposes dur
ing most of the time, because floods generally
occur before spring planting. 1t is simply a
case where the farmer agrees TO loan his land TIC
the state for flood prevention purposes on con-
dition that he is to be paid certain nominal sum
for such use.
The estimated cost of this project is only
seventeen million dollars. Even if it ultimately
costs twenty five million, the protection will be
cheap when the great damage caused by newt
able floods are taken into consideration.
Against this indebtedness, bonds will be is
sued covering thirty years years. All property
which comes within the protected area will be
assessed in proportion to the degree of protec
ton enjoyed. The idea is to have those directly
benefited by the plan pay for it.
To dredge the channels and build dykes, as
was first proposed, would have cost several times
much as the "dry reservoir" plan. Where this
latter plan can be completed in three years, the
former would have required twenty years tc
build. Strengthening the channels would have
necessitated many costly changes in railways ane
bridges; the adopted plan will leave them where
