COST CUTTING
ON THE CANAL
AMERICANS PAID $500 EACH TO
HAVE THE BIG DITCH DUCT
MIGHT HAVE REQUIRED 500
HAskIN BOOK, WHICH JOURNAL
IS DISTRIBUTING, TELLS ABOUT
1T.

The contribution of the average
American to the building of the Pan
anna canal was 81. If it had not been
for the unparalleled efficiency devel-
oped 1t might have required 81 out OF
your pocketbook instead of 81. AS the
work progressed the difficulties in
creased and the amount of material to
be removed was added to in such a
way that 1t began to look as though
It would require the removal of noun
tains of money out of American pock-
etbooks to remove the mountains OF
earth and rock out of the canal.
But Colonel Goethals had estimated
that the total cost Of the canal was
going to be ss75,ooo,0o0, and he was
not willing to let such a small thing
as a hundred million cubic yards Of
material upset that estimate. So he
called for efficiency. He asked his
army to remove as much material for
one dollar as he had thought could be
removed for two dollars.
Eliminating lost motion there, TAX
ing in reef Of expense here the pro
cess was kept up day in and day out,
month in and month out, until Colonel
Goethals was able to see one pound of
dynamite doing the work that former
ly had been done by two pounds, and
until ne was ADte 10 witness TWO yardS
OF material taken out OF Culsora cut
at what Il was estimaed one yard
would cost.
Here Is another wonderful story OF

kinsmen, your countryznen. 1t is told

LOOK at those windows"
Except two, the windows i'm the
house had been closed all
night to keep out the night air "
Fresh air, and lots of it, is just
as necessary at night as in the
day time, and night air from the
outside is better than night air
inside a closed, occupied room.
But day or night, air from with
out should be admitted into the
home. Every breath a man takes
he breathes out so much poison
Gus atmosphere, and as nearly
one thousand breaths are taken
every hour by each person, it re-
quires only about twenty min
utes for one person to make the
air of an ordinary room bad for
breathing; and the only way to
keep the air fresh, is to let it in
through open windows, without,
however. making ones self un-
comfortable by unnecessary
drafts. Bad air makes the blood
impure, weakens the system and
predisposes it to disease. Crowd
ed rooms are most unhealthful.
Men and women have been known
to die over night, when crowded
into small places. Bedroom win
dows should be open little, top
and bottom, the year round; good
air means good health.

Of all thou holdest fast
While the years roll
There remains at the lrst
Never a dole;
All that thou givest thou hast;

Open each closed door,
Fling wide each blind;
Scatter like flame and more
Like flame thou shalt find.

No times recall,
That leaves no place bereft
Where it may fall.

CHRISTIANS
No 7 MADE
BY RULES
Dr., Ridley Disapproves of Attempt
by Any Congregation to Regu-
late Members Conduct.

DR.. Caleb A. Ridley, of the Central
Baptist Church, Thursday expressed
his severe disapproval of the attempt
on the part of any church to regulate
by hard and fast rule the private
conduct OF its members
His comment was aroused by the
proposed action of the First Baptist
Church. which is considering drastic
action on the locker club question as
it affects the church membership.
Resolutions submitted to the church
conference by the pastor, the Rev. c,
W. Daniel. provide that the members
shall use every effort to make the So
cisl clubs to which they may belong
conform strictly TO the law. and that
in the event Of failure. they withdraw
from the clubs
DR.. Ridley's Views.
DR.. Ridley said:
The First Baptist Church has a
right to do as it plea ses, and | have
no word to say regarding its resolu-
tons A Baptist Church is a democ-
racy and the majority rules 1t is
also a sovereign and no other congre-
cation has any right to interfere with
the transaction OF its business.
have no desire to express myself re-
garding its action in passing the res
olutions you refer to.
"Now. as to my own personal atti-
tude, and also that OF my church,
think I am free to speak. Personally
l do not believe that resolutions how
ever good or important, will rightly
regulate moral conduct. The conduct
of Christian men and women should
ne an outflow rather than a mechani-
cal move under pressure. Christ's
appeal was always to the man within
us. II the Gospel will not regulate
the conduct of men without thumb
screws. then the conduct when regu-
lated is anything but Christian. My
candid conviction is that the kingdom
interests are not so well served by
penalizing as by preaching. | shall
more fully express myself on the sub
iect next Sunday night in my own
pulpit"
Or. Daniel Protests Delay.
The resolutions presented at the
First Baptist Church are vet to be
acted upon. The meeting OF the con-
ference Wednesday night was so
poorly attended because OF the bad
weather that it was decided to post
pone the matter until next Wednes-
day night. An effort was made TO
have the resolutions referred to the
regular conference OF the church in
April. but DR.. Daniel protested
against this delay.
81 don't believe the question IS one
that requires that length of time for
deliberation," he said. Delay will be
disastrous However, don't propose
to dictate to the church or TO attempt
TO run the affairs OF the church
