WHERE THE OCEAN is sAITEsT.
Enough salt TO Make Mile a Half
Coat

In the American Magazine Cleve-
land Moffett desCTibes important dis
coveries recently made by Oceanog-
raphers, fishing at a depth Of three or
four miles. In the following e,Aract
taken from his article Mr.. Moffett de-
scrlbes discoveries oceanographers
have made as to the salt in the sea:
Another regular task of the ocean
ographers is to take observations Of
the saltness OF the sea. which varies
greatly in different localities They do
this by sending. down on the trawl line
brass specimen bottles arranged to fill
and close at any desired depth. Thus
II has been learned that the north At
lantlc is considerably salter than the
north Pacific, and that the safest of
all the great seas are the Mediterra-
mean, the Red, and especially the Ad-
riatic. Also, on either side of the
equator, in both Atlantic and Pacific.
there have been discovered trade
wind patches that are excessively
salt. Some patient statistician has cal
culated that II all the salt in the sea
were evaporated and spread over this
country. II would cover the entire
United States with salt more than a
mile and half deep"

II is "A mistake for the church to in
sist that men shall use the TECHNOLOGY
which may have served its purpose for
another generation. II is "A still greater
mistake TO insist that the men OF to-
day must have the same kind of spir-
itual experiences as those who lived
under entirely different conditions.
The men OF today must be permit
ted to express their religious asplra-
tions in their own way. They will do
so. anyway. 1t Is merely a question
whether the church will be broad
enough TO accept these thoroughly
consecrated Christian men or whether
thcp shall be compelled to seek a
home somewhere else Wise leaders In
the church will make allowance for
the way in which those newly inter
ested in religion came first to be at
tracted TO religious truths and prac-
tice.
II is one thing to have been taught
religion from ones childhood and
never to have experienced the sensa-
tion OF being hurried into the king
dom OF God: II is quite another cx-
perience TO have been damned into

In rebuttal OF testimony offered
by railroad witnesses, Mr.. Iopk ms,

soCiation, an organization with a
membership Of 25O,00O, introduced a
compilation Of rates. Mr. Hopkins
