What Did tho Kaiser Tell Beveridee?
From the NeM Renuhlic

On the cover of Golfers Weekly for
March q is displayed the announcement:
"A Visit to the Kaiser by Senator Albert
]. Beverage" Above it is a facsimile of
Ny. Beveridge's letter to Mr.. Mark Sulli-
van. assuring him ard the public that
every statement In the article was true
and officially sanctioned by the Imperial
careless fashion OF readers. you say to
yourself: Here is a piece of journalism
an interview between a senator and an
emperor" Then you turn to the article.
You learn that Mr.. Beveridge visited
William II, and ak with him In the
garden for two hours; that the monarch
does not look older than his age suggests:
that his complexion is pale. with a faint
tinge of color: that his voice is vibrant
and strong. And you are told what Ad-
miral Won Tirpitz and Field Marshal Won
Hindenburg said to Mr.. Beveridge. OF
what the kaiser said In those two hours
there is no hint. Perhaps Mr.. Beveridge
may not b quoted. A any rate, only a
very gullible person would suppose that
the announcement OF "A Visit to the
Kaiser" implies that you nave anything
to report. 1t is sufficient to prove that
there was a visit TO the kaiser. And
that truth Golfers has established for all
time, at the expense of its readers.

Defective Financial Policy.

The failure of the Church Of Christ
today in It's conquest Of the world.
in accordance with the program Of
the Lord for the evangeliZation, en-
listment and education of every crea-
ture. has been caused largely by de-
fective financial policy. 1t was so in
the days of Joash, when an effort was
made through the cooperation of the
priests to secure the temples restora-
ton. The ,long-drawn-out delay was
caused by the defective methods used
10 secure the necessary funds. Personal
solicitation among friends failed be-
cause of the limitation Of their ability
10 give II placed a heavy burden upon
a few instead of all the people. II the
priests had been thorough and sys-
ternatic in their efforts, all would have
been reached and the amount needed
raised. How long their negligence
continued we do not know, but we do
know that in the twenty-third year Of
his reign Joash put an end to the do
nothing policy.
The real weakness of the plan was
that 1t pls ced the obligation to solicit
funds upon the wrong persons. 1t was
not the duty of the priests to solicit
funds. They were the representatives
of Jehovah and as such their work was
in the temple for the people and not
with the people.
Another great difficulty was in the
apathy of the people. Their hearts
were still truant to God. Their cheers
for Joash were not vows of devotion
to Jehovah. Under Athaliah's admin
fstration the moneys for the temple had
been diverted TO personal pleasure and
use. Before the people who had been
robbing God Of the tithes would restore
tc Him and His cause the share that
belonged to Jehovah. they must first
get right with God. A reformation was
needed in the hearts Of the people be-
fore they would gladly give for the
restoration of the temple.
The priests had apparently failed to
use the gifts secured in such manner
as to receive from the people the large
funds needed to carry on the work of
restoration of the temple and the wor-
ship of Jehovah. The truth is that
many church members do not under
stand what it costs TO meet the current
expenses of their church. There is
scarcely a Christian enterprise in the
world that liz not hampered for the lack
Of funds to carry on it's work. Con-
structive work and enlargement in mis-
sionary work. college and social serv-
Ice are hindered and hampered for the
lack Of funds that today are waiting

funds. who have forgotten their stew
ardship and, like the people in the days
OF Joash. considered that 1t was their
personal possession.
