THE NATIONS DINNER TABLE

When the dinner bell of this nation
rings there have been slaughtered for
the repast $4,000 beeves, $1,000 hogs,
$500 sheep, 1000 hundredweight of
poultry and other meats, and there
have been 100000 bushels of cereals
and 540,000,000 pounds of vegetables
prepared for the feast. Multiply these
quantities by one thousand, repre-.
senting approximately the number of
meals per annum, and we have the
annual contents of the nations larder.
But with all our immense quantity,
superb quality and wide range of pro
ducts, the American housewife like
the wife of King Nebuchadnezzar,
longs for variety and she goes market
ing in foreign lands. She buys abroad
100000 600 per annum of farm pro-
ducts that can and should be produced

In discussing the commercial
achievements of this great age, we
shall approach the subject as the
historian chronicling events. This Sc.
ries will endeavor to record in writ.
ing the supremacy of American men
and industries in the worlds affairs
and perptuate an appreciation of our
marvellous industrial achievements by
presenting simple facts, figures and
comparisons that are overpowering In
their convictions.
America holds her proud place
among the nations Of the earth today
on account Of her supremacy In trans
portation facilities. The mighty minds
of the age are engaged in the prob
lens Of transportation, and thu great
est men In the history of the worlds
commerce are at the head of the
transportation systems of the United
States.
In the discussion of transportation,
let us consider separately our Rail-
ways, Telegraph and Telephones, Ex-
press, Public Highways, Steamships,
Street Railways, Interurban and other
forms of transportation, and this ar
ticle will deal with railways.
The United States has the largest
mileage, the best service, the cheap
est rates, pays labor the highest
wages, and we have the most efficient
ly managed of the railways of the
world. They stand as a monument to
the native genius of our marvellous
builders, and most of the railroads in
foreign countries have been built |
under American orders.

RECEIVERS FAMILY HEIRLOOM
Man Also Gets Apprenticeship Papers
Of Grandfather Binding Him to
Temperance.

Santa Fe, N. M.-Supt. ]. H. Wag,
ner of the public schools of this city
mas just come into possession of inter.
esting heirlooms that had passed out
OF his family, but which he relocated
In eastern Indiana, where they had
been taken from Lancaster county,
Penn. They include an old-fashion ID
walnut chest, made over a hundred
years ago, when each piece of furni-
ture represented the work of an indi.
vidual craftsman, instead of being a
mere collection of pieces made by ma
chinery and assembled in a ware
house; colonial walnut bureau and
other pieces of furniture.
In one of the bureaus was found
an old indenture of apprenticeship,
binding out Mr. Wagner's grandfather
as a millwright apprentice. Contrary
to prevailing opinion, there were pro.
nounced temperance ideas in those
days, for the indenture bound young
to keep away from public tav.
ems and gambling places.
These heirlooms had been sold at
public auction years ago, but were re-
covered through the agency of friends.
The walnut chest still has upon 1t
shipping instructions via the old Erie
and Maumee canals, In the days be-
ore the railroads.

the accepted distance from the earth
to the moon. We had in 1911, the
last year in which figures for all
countries are available, on the
earth's surface, 639,9S1 miles of rail-
way divided as follows; United States
241, 199, Europe 207 432 and other
countries 1880. The United States
has 38 per cent of the worlds mileage,
| seven per cent Of the estimated pop
ulation and about five per cent of the
area. The total capital invested in the
railways of the world is $4,000 0O0,-
600, divided as follows: United States
$13,O00,000,O00 Europe $25,650, 900 900
and other countries 11,35O,000,000
Reduced to mileage basis the cap
italization is as follows: The world
$4,000, United States $4,000, Europe
$l24,0O0, and other countries $4,000.
A comparison of rates is equally as
interesting and the United States
takes the lead in economy and serv.
Ice. The average rate per ton per
hundred mile haul Is as follows:
United States Tee, Great Britain $3.50,
France $1.44, Germany $144, Russia
92c, Austria-Hungary $3.50, Italy $3.50
and Switzerland 1882.
The average yearly pay of all rail.
road employees in the principal coun.
tries is as follows: United States
$757, Germany 1892, Italy s345. Aus.
tria 1922 Great Britain 1919, France
$3.50 and Russia 1904.
About 80 per cent, or 1876, 1000 miles,
of the railways of the world are
government owned. About half the
railway mileage of Europe is govern.

School Of Religion Needed.

OF course, the Sunday School is the
center for all this work, although the
activities of the church should extend
through the entire week and the Sun
day School should cease to be so
named. 1t should be called the School
of Religion or the Church School or
something else that indicates it to be
an all-the-week activity. During this
time various and sundry clubs, classes,
musical organizations, culture courses,
as well as distinctly religious meetings,
should be held. Tricky settled neigh
borhoods, as we shall see, offer fine
opportunities for the development of
things spiritual.
The third task to which the church
is committed is that of Outstanding
the social order; that of infusing the
spirit of Jesus into every nook and
corner of our life. Nothing is foreign
to the interest of the church.

POLITICAL PARTIES COMBINE,
Coalition of British Cabinet Com.
posed of Ablest Leaders.

London.-The resignation OF the
veteran sailor Lord Fisher from his
post OF first sea lord of the admiralty
because he and his nominal civilian
superior, Winston Spencer Churchill,
nrst lord of the admiralty, have been
unable to work together, is probably
the first step toward a sweeping re-
organization of the British govern
ment
A coalition cabinet composed of
the strongest men of both political
parties, Is believed to be the probable
solution of the governments diff
culties. There is no question of a
complete change of the government,
but the retirement of several mem
bers of the liberal cabinet to make
way for the strongest men of the
conservative party is confidently ex-
pected.
Premier Asquith will remain at the
head OF the government In any event,
with Lord Kitchener and Sir Edward
Grey, respectively, the war and for
sign ministers, in undisputed posses
sion OF their present posts, while
David Lloyd-George, the chancellor of
;he exchequer and Mr.. Churchill
probably will take new positions

WATERED SECURITIES
BY Peter Radford.

Much has been said and more writ
ten about the evils of watered stock in
big business concerns and the farm
ers Of this nation believe that every
dollar written into the life of any
business organization, should be able
to say Il know that my Redeemer
liveth," but farming is the biggest
business ON earth, and there is more
water in its financial transaction than
that of any other industry. There Is
as much water In farmers note
drawing eight or ten per cent interest
when other lines of industry secure
money for four or five per cent per
annum, as there Is in business pay
ing reasonable compensation upon
the face value of securities repre-
senting an investment of only fifty
cents on the dollar. The only diff
ference Is, the water Is In the interest
rate In one instance and in the secur-
tiles in the other.
The promoter ofttimes takes chances
and his success Is contingent upon
the development Of the property in
volved but the usurer, as a rule, takes |
no chances and his success cripples !
the property involved. There may be
industries that cry louder but none |
that suffer more severely from finan.
cial immortality In both law and GUS
tom than that of agriculture.
The farmers of America today are
paying $200,000,0OO per annum in
usury on real estate and chattel
loans, and this interest capitalized
at five per cent represents $4,000, OOO,-
900 of fictitious values which the farm
er Is paying interest ON. This sum of
money Is almost equal to the annual
value Of crops produced in the United
States.
The earning power of the farmers
note based upon his interest rate very
nearly divides likes the earth's sur
face-three-fourths water and one
fourth land. The largest body of wa
ter that floats upon the financial hem
sphere now rests upon the farms
and its waves are dashing and its |
pillows are rolling against seven mil
ion homes threatening ruin and dis
aster to the prosperity of the nation.
Viii our public servants who under
'tand how to drain the liquid off in
lustrial properties turn the faucet and )
ct the water of the farms?

1t is an admitted economic fact that
there can be no permanent prosperity

MISSION Of THE
RURAL CHURCH
SHOULD BE UNIVERSITY OF RE-
LIGIoUS LEARNING.
Duty Of Christianity to EvanseIlze the
World.
BY Rev. Jno. A. Rice, D. D.

Pastor st. John M. e. Church. South,
st. Louis. Mo.
Some years ago, the question was
asked: What Is a college? The at
tempt to answer it shook the educa
tional world in America from center
to circumference Another question is
now beginning to be asked; What is
a church? Without undertaking to
give definition of it, let me ask, in
this initial paper, what the church
is for? The New Testament reveals
three distinct tasks to which 1t is
committed
First, that of evangelization. The
church is divinely commissioned to
reach for the lowest and the least
man in the least land and offer him
sonship to the Eternal God; offer him
a divine power, which lifts him out
of the bog and places him upon the
highest levels of human life, where
God and the soul are in fellowship
This alone were an immense priv
ilege.

NeighborIy Love Essential.

If religion pervades and colors the
whole life then ours is serious bust
ness, for 1t will let no corner of the
world escape it's influence. The sooner
We learn that Christianity is not a
thing to be practiced in a corner the
better for the world. The question of
the eighteenth century, touching Chris
tianity, was, Can it be made to square
with the human reason? OF the nine
teenth, Can it be made to square with
the results Of scientific research? Of
the twentieth, What can it do? We
must learn to enforce not only love of
God, whom we cannot see, but love to
our neighbors, with whom we are living
In constant contact. Neither without
the other is Christianity whatever else
1t may be. Everything that interests
his neighbors must interest him, IL he
Is a genuine follower of the Christ.
1t is the mission of the church-the
rural as well as the city--to evange-
lie the whole world, to train to the
highest degree of efficiency those
whom 1t evangelizes and to seek to
make the spirit of Jesus the absolute
rule in all human relations.

The church is commissioned also
to teach and train those who are
rich with its evangelistic message
The term, Religious Education, has
come to mean a specific thing in our
country namely, the training of the
people in the local church in those
deep matters which pertain to the
art of living. | am not now speaking
of the work of education in schools,
colleges and universities, but the work
of education at our doors, In the con
gregation. Every agency in reach
should be employed to the utmost in
this important mission. Indeed, the
local church could be made a sort of
university for all the people, in which
the simple, practical arts and virtues
Of everyday life should be taught and
Only recently has this
special phase of the church's work re-
ceived anything like adequate atten-
ton. The New Testament word for
It Is Publication.

Coffee Drinking School Children

The State Board of Health of Texas
has been making inquiries into the ef-

Children who drink coffee for break
fast" says one report, come to school
exhilirated they work strenuously in
the morning and are overlooking with
energy and vitality, BUT THEY DO
NOT LAST under the school routine;
they become fatlgued more quickly
than the other pupils, and by the close
of school in the afternoon they are
exhausted to the point of stupidity.
They are nervous and therefore un-
stable in their department"
1t has also been found by other in
vestigators that children who drank
coffee averaged from one and one
half to more than four pounds less in
weight, and from one-half inch to
more than one inch less in height,
coffee. They were also found to have
an average of three pounds less in
hand strength than the children who
never drank coffee
NOTE.-Many parents have found
IL TO their children's advantage to give
