DETROIT PASTORS
PRAISE FORD FOR
PEACE EFFORTS

Two Detroit pastors paid tribute
20 Henry Ford from their puipits
Sunday for his efforts for peace,
while a third took occasion TO make
an argument for national prepared
ness.
The Rev. Percival ]. Huget declared
that he had little hope OF the peace
crusade on which Mr.. Ford has
started accomplishing anything, but
that Mr.. Ford was entitled to great
credit for the attempt.
"To some people it is joke"
said he. Ito others n beautiful de.
fusion, to yet others an impertinence
and TO some a great and holy hope.
At any rate, Mr.. Ford is making an
earnest effort TO stop the slaughter
and bring peace 10 the world and
that certainly Is better than doing
nothing !"
How can the mission of Detroit's
peace ship justify itself?" asked the
Rev. Frederick A White, pastor OF
the Grand River-ave. Baptist church
There is an excellent reason. The
nations nf Europe have been pre-.
pairing for war for decades, but
they haven't provided for the ma
chinery to stop IT, In any machine
man ever has made TWO things are
essential. one the motor to make IL
30 and the other the brake to make
II stop. Mr.. Ford goes over to The
Hague to provide court of appeal
for these warning nations, TO act
as the brake"

Cass-aye. Methodist church. said
that for the country 20 be UMPIRE

Just about as sensible as 1t would
be for Detroit to dismiss its police
and depend on murderers and burg
lars TO be good. He epitomized the
creed OF preparedness as follows:

invade our territory our peace

not compare With hers.
IL learned why at the demonstra-
ton. First, Hilda measured out one

the baking powder. Three level tea
spoonfuls Is the right proportion. but
the maid dug in the spoon and took
up all IL would hold--probably three
level teaspoonfuls-an added II to
the flour. When she did this again

out, filled as before, for the third
time, the audience gasped as one
woman. However, no one felt she
had right TO speak just then. but il
looked as though there would be
something doing when the mullins
came out OF the oven. for IL did not
seem possible they could turn out as
did the prize winning pan. But they
did, were just as delicious and not a
trace of baking powder could be de-
tected when they were eaten"
But, do you not know II is very
dangerous thing TO Put such large
quantity of baking powder into one

instructor. Serving hot breads

enemies, he saw an enemy even in his
shadow.
At four o'clock he turned in and
slept like log.
In the morning he found his oppor-
tuntty. For half an hour the forecastle
was empty Of all save himself. Fever
ishly he pried back the boards, found
the brace beam, and gently laid the
box there. 1t was a mighty curious
looking box. Once he had stocked up
the Chinese coast from the Philip
pines, and he judged it to be Chinese
In origin. He tried to pry open the
cover and feast his eyes upon the
treasure; but under the leather and
ivory and mother of pearl was imper-
vious steel. 1t would take an az or
a crowbar to stir that lid. He sighed.
He replaced the boards, and became
to all appearances his stolid self
again.
But all the way down to the BAHIA
mas he was moody, and when he an
swered any questions it was with
words spoken testify and jerkily.

while keeping weather eye forward,
at the ratty old pilot house
1t was ten clock, land time. when
he rammed his Guilty into pocket
and resolutely walked forward. If
any one watched him they would think
he was only looking down the cut
water. The thought of money and
the pleasures it will buy makes cum
ming the stupidest of doIts; and Steve
was ordinarily dolt. But tonight his
brain was keen enough for all pur-
poses. 1t was hazardous job to get
the box off the fiuke without letting
it slip back into the sea. Steve, how
ever, accomplished the feat, climbed
back On the rail and sat down, wait
ing. A quarter of an hour passed. No
one; had seen him. With his coat Sc
curely wrapped about his precious
lind he made for the forecastle. His
mates, save those who were doing
their watch, were all in their hunks.
An oil lamp dimly Illuminated the for
ward partition. Steve's bunk was al
most in darkness. Very deity he rolled
back the bedding and secreted the
box under his pillows, and then
stretched himself out with the pre-
tense of snoozing till the bell called
him to duty.
He was rich; and the moment a
man has money he has troubles:
there is always some one who wants
to take it away from you. His bunk
was on the port side, and there was
plenty of hiding space between the
iron plates and the wooden partition.
He intented to loosen three or four
planks, and then when the time came,
slip the box behind them. Some time
during the morning the forecastle
would be empty, and then would be
his time.
But he suffered the agonies of dam
nation during the four hours watch.
Surprising some fool should go rum
maging about his bunk and discover
the box? Suppose But he dared
not suppose. There was nothing to do
but wait. If he created any curiosity
on the part of his mates he was lost.
He would have to divide with them
all, from the captain down to the cooks
boy. 1t was heart-rending thought.
From being the most open and frank
man aboard, he became the most cum
ming. From being a man without
