It was a horrible situation. For,

He felt Thompson's hand crap his.
And now the roof was pressing
against their heads even as they sat-
and the hot grains were mounting.
It was an atrocious sensation to feel
them creeping upward. The lower
parts of their bodies were completely
buried. With hands above their heads
they waited for the end. And already
they were in the wise, between the
unfolding roof and the wheat.

They drew together and consulted.
It seemed probable that the elevator
would ground; if so, it would be an
easy matter to get through the win

sill, and there was a space of about
five feet between the top. of the pile
and the roof. Plenty of air came
through chinks in the walls. But it
was pretty warm for lying on.

To their establishment the wheat
rose above the level of the window.
They were now lying in a little de-

CHURCH AND STATE.

The recent trend to unite churc and state with the control of pol lies, and through the attempt to dor mate public affairs through the il fluence of the public. is condelnne by Peter Radford, lecturer for tn National Farmers Institute, who sai, in part:
 The greatest peril to the churcn today is politics. The temptation of the ministry to throw down the cross of Christ and pick up the club of the policeman, to sub stitute the penalties of the law for the power of the altar and to legislate religion into human hearts, never was greater.
 The world never needed a reli- liglous ministry more nor political preachers less than it does today We need ministers to teach us now to live; we know how to vote.
 Politics and religion will not blend. No free government can long exist. or the church perform it's mission to society. when preachers and politicians temporal rily exchange callings, and civil ization that will countenance such conduct will soon decay.
 A preacher can no more preach a political sermon without con- verting his pulpit into a political rostrum than he could sell intoxi- eating liquor from the altar with. out converting the church into bar-room. He can no more purify politics by playing the game taan he can sanctify gambling by run ming a lottery
 II is my opinion that when this world is saved 1t will be through religious sermons and not through political speeches. Salvation must come to US from the Bible, and not from the Statute Book. So impressive were these state ments that the Gospel Tempest" re- me words Of the lecturer ind commenting thereon, added The kind Of mini5try needed in the gorld today is a S}iritfilled ministry. aYing the welfare\of souls at heart;

TWENTY-SlX MILLION SHOTS
 FIRED DAILY BY GERMANS

London. March -Twenty-six mil lion shots are being fired daily by the Germans alone, according to esti- mates credited 10 "one of the worlds foremost authorities on copper whose discussion of the importance of this metal is published in the TIMES, with his name withheld
 His estimate of 26,000,000 German shots every twenty-four hours, is based on the belief that the German firing line extends in all about 750 m"es and the "conservatiyes" guess that f,S00.000 Germans are taking part in the arrangements daily. to the extent al least of firing 20 shots each. This would be a low average he be- ieves, as during real engagements hundreds of shots are fired by each man.
 Since a rifle cartridge unloaded. weighs l84.5 grains, the total wastage of brass in this form would amount to 6S757S pounds, or roundly 305 tons per day These figures made no al lowance for the machine guns, which spit out bullets every second.
 Owing to the mud and water in which so many of the battles have been fought, the writer believed it was doubtful that five per cent of the cartridges used were recovered for remelting
 Not even Germany's huge prepar- ations could have provided for sucl a waste of copper for any length of time" he declared

SOME EXCERPTS.

Naturally the state press is givins some attention to the action of tho governor on the race bill. and almos unanimously that editorial expression is condemnation of the governor Even that press which had disap proved the race bill declare the gover nor had "wobbled around the gud geon8 until his action was unworthy of approval in the press
 Fort Smith Times-Record says:
 With name like George Washington Hays We don't be, lcve the governor would misstate the facts as to the order of his various notations on the racing bill but t is a pity that firmness and decision as well as yeracity and good intentions did not go wit,i 'a2 name
 The Texarkanan says.
 Governor Hays seems 10 have succeeded in getting himself into nice fix on the Sawyer racing bill His mistake seems to have hean in having too many determi- nations instead Of just one-eith- CT to sign or to veto the bill
 The Pine Bluff Commercial says:
 Supporters and opponents of the Sawyer racing bill are throw ing anathemas at the governor because of his administration acrobatics in connection with the measure And because of his pe- culiar method of affixing his sig nature to the bill the scrap over the question as to whether it is or is not a law will not be ended until the state supreme court de- cides, according to the decla~a- ton of those for and against the bill. Whatever the final result the governor has lost friends on both sides. No administration of ficial can take such a vague stand and get away with it.

Bubbles Fight Breakers.

Compressed air has great possibilities
in developing safety at sea. 1t is prov
ing far more reliable than oil in sub
DUNG rough waters, although oil has
been used for this purpose since the
beginning of navigation.
A compressed air apparatus upon a
pier will facilitate the landing of a YES
sci in stormy weather. The apparatus
includes a reservoir for the compressed
air, a machine for pumping it and set
of pipes leading from the reservoir to
the bottom of the ocean in front of the
pier. The air is pumped through the
pipes to the bottom of the ocean, from
which place it bubbles up to the sur
face. These air bubbles turn the strong,
heavy waves into mere spray, having
no power for damage.
Compressed air facilities are likely
to be added to all well equipped docks
in the future, as well as to lighthouses.
1t is also capable of being applied to
long stretches of coast where damage
is frequently done by the waves in
storm. Several large vessels have al
ready been equipped with compressed
air apparatus, which have materially
lessened the discomforts of rough voy-
ages.
