charity, it is often not a sembance of
real sacrifice of real love. Great giving
always involves the parting with that
which is dear to us. The father knows
it when he takes voluntarily the hard
earned savings of a lifetime and
spends what might make his old age
comfortable and free from care on
the education of son or a daugh-
ter. 1t is the divestiture of thing we
want for the sake of another-this is
the proof of real affection.-The

MISSIONARIES OF MAMMoN

Christian leaders and teachers
speak of the connection of missions
and commerce as though it were a
good thing. They tell how the mis-
sionary opens up q new country for
foreign trade. We ought to go very
light on such talk. That is dam
gerous connection; not one to be

proud of. The native has often had
far too much reasons to think that the
Christian nations are interested chiefly
in getting his money. in involving him
in their wars. The missionaries have
one message-the message of Jesus.
1t is the message of salvation, of world
brotherhood, of world cooperation,
not of world competition. They will
help bring to pass Christ's dream for
the world as they are true to this mes
sage.-The Christian Herald.

THE TEST OF FRIENDSHIP

What is it to be loyal to a friend /?
1t is willingness to give up for that
friend something that we ourselves
want. We sometimes give our cast
off clothing, or a baubIe of which we
have become tired, to the poor or to
an acquaintance. 1t is charity, it is

DIGGING UP AHAB's PALACE

The ruins of Samaria are now a
perfect fountain of stones which have
been poured down the surrounding
slopes of the hill, from which rise
hundreds of the stumps of columns
marking the lines of ancient streets
and colonnades A new carriage road
crosses the southern slope and a rail
road almost encircles it, both leading
from the plain of Esdraelon to She
chem. An American exploration So
ciety has actually bought the hill and
has been making excavations which
promise most interesting and valuable
results. The foundation of what seems
to have been Ahab's palace has been
laid bare along with many later struc-
tures.-The Christian Herald.

Teller Foundation had sought to con-
troll its activities in return for con-
tributions. This charge was vigorous
ly disputed by the Rockefellers.
DR.. Aliens new institute is said to
have the support of wealthy business
men here and in other cities who are
interested in popularizing efficiency and
accuracy in municipal government mat
tiers.
Some OF the Supervising members

HYPHENATE IS
TRAITOR-H
Princeton Head Urges the U. 5.
to Start Defence by End
ing DislOyalty.

Buffalo, Dec. Am an address before
the University Club, Of Buffalo. this
evening President John Grier Hibben,
Of Princeton University, made strong
plea for military preparedness, urged
the fuller enlistment of young men IN
the militia, and condemned as a traitor
whoever expresses the spirit Of hy-
phensted loyalty"
"Why should we prepare ourselves
against the indefinite and seemingly
remote possibility of war? Because
our history as nation imperativeiy
constrains US TO heed those counsels
of wisdom which our past distinctly
suggests" he declared.
"By the extension Of the military
training camps throughout our coun-
try, by an increased interest in the
organization of the state militia. by
short term enlistments in the regular
army, so that there will be minimum
Of men in actual service and maxi
mum in the reserve corp, our line OF
progress is definitely determined for
US, to create an invisible army which
will need only the country's peril to
summon it into being.
There must be preparedness for
all that the future holds in store for
us by demand throughout our coun-
try for an undivided loyalty on the
part of the entire body of our citizens,
and an unconditional and unreserved
acknowledgment that America Is their
one and only Fatherland. Public sentl-
ment must run so strong and so high
as to make it impossible for any one who
has taken the oath of citizenship TO
divide his allegiance between the
claims Of this country and those OF
the country upon which he turned his
back long years past.
LET us not shrink from calling
things by their right names, and brand
as traitor whoever lives in our midst,
enjoying the protection and prosperity
Of our country, and yet dares TO ex-
press by word or deed the spirit Of
hyphenated loyalty. There are welcome
and room within our borders for all
sorts and conditions of men. but no
place and no quarter for traitors"
