more and more emphatic in their
belief that TO SOW wild oats is to
reap wild oats, and that young
man today should be as clean and
pure as the young woman whom
he expects to marry and make
happy. Fathers and mothers were
never so wide awake to this fact
as they are today The conscience
of the people is being enlighten-
ed, and made more sensitive TO
many lurking evils which form
er generations winked at, We
owe il to our children to pass on
our experience and observations
and thus save them from much
that would otherwise mar their
whole lives. Society was never
more awake to the fact that many
things that have been tolerated
in the past must be put out OF
business for the good of the
home, the natior and wholesome
conditions.
Men who put a wrong interpre-
tation on the one great Man OF
the ages may not see the potency
of Christianity in all these things.
They may talk of the failure of
Christianity in the face of the
terrible war now being waged by
the so-called Christian nations,
their vision is beclouded by their
own false interpretations, and
their wish becomes the father of
their thought thus expressed. We
have had wars all through the
, Christian period, but Christiani-
1 ty went on regardless of these hui
man passions and tragedies. One
might Just as well say that Christ
t was failure ON the cross be-
} cause His enemies seemed 10 tri-
umph. We know who was real

Equivalent for their labor The

of men who enjoy and revel IA
wealth while the laboring man is
worrying how he is going TO make

a system cannot stand as the
people realize their power and ex

There is great need, today, for

mocracy will mean a democracy
that will have less and less use
for an institution like the sa-
loon that menaees the happiness

workers of the world. People
properly fed and living beyond
want and the pinch of poverty
are a people who do not have, as
a rule, the craving for a stimu-
liant that will brace them for
the struggle. i have seen the
worst forms of drunkenness in
the homes of the poor where the
economic strain was too much for
them. In this line as well as
in other we are prone to go with

Wherever you find any form Of life,
whether fishes, birds, worms, insects,
plants or human beings, there is the
immmenCe Of wounds, disease and
death. Existence itself is the valley
OF the shadow of death" And this
forces upon us the conclusion that
nature cares very little for our safety
and very much for the quality OF our
fiber She does not mind If we die
or are hurt, but she Is anxious TO keep
up our courage The air Is full Of
microbes, our food sWarms with
germs our blood and our environ

our morals. The way from the cradle
to the grave is past a thousand bat
teries. And at last some marksman
gets us. Nature intends us to die. And
you will miss the whole meaning Of
life if you do not learn that the true
aim is not at all to escape the pain, to
