But salvation is not person and it is not thing
II is a life to be lived.
Few there are. who await savior who shall. only
reveal the truth them and deal justly BY them-an
awakened conscience.
Whatever the next world may have to offer, there IS
but one way Of salvation in this world whether It be
for man, OF race, OF nation 1t is this;
With courage born of good conscience and Of faith
In eternal right summon your uneonquerable will; re-
sst evil promote the common welfare, Try to remove
obstacles to progress; seek the truth always, fairly
acknowledge it. whatever the cost, be guided by IT;
and finding Joy in service, and due reward in duty
done, in mercy DO justice to all mankind
There is no such thing death OF defeat fer men,
OF races OF nations that spend themselves that way
That way alone means freedom. That way alone
makes profit. That way alone insures safety. That
way alone leads to content. Only by that way need
rest be sought. And If men and nations could only
keep that way each day would record new victories
and the arrival Of fresh reinforeements.
There is but one worthwhile purpose in life which
IS to help improve the conditions Of living for the
masses Of the people, help to equaze opportunity, help
to free the soul Of the world from Of its feter
and if possible leave the world little better than
found It.

To have the officers take the interest

TO DEBATE MABTON
FRIDAY, DEC. 18th
High School to Argue in Favor
of Adjustment of the
Monroe Doctrine

Friday evening, the 17th, the sec
ond of the series Of high school de-
bates will be held in the high school
gymnasium, the local team competing
against the Mabton debaters on the
affirmative side of the question OF
abandoning the Monroe Doctrine. The
Kennewick debaters, Barton Sherk,
Ruth Cresswell and William Sly, won
from Richland by default in the con-
test scheduled for Nov. II, having
then the negative side OF the subject
and have since worked on the other
aide. The Monroe Doctrine is sub
iect widely discussed during the last
year, many questions relating to the
European war also having a bearing
upon our maintenance of this cen.
tury-old doctrine. Few men even OF
those who keep carefully in touch
with public affairs are able to give
an intelligent statement of just what
the Monroe Doctrine really is, and
hardly any two statesmen agree as
to the character and limits of it's ap-
plications. Consequently there has
been much agitation for the discon-
tinuance of this policy. 1t is probable
that those attending the debate at the
high school the 18th, will come away
with much more clearly defined idea
OF the Monroe Doctrine than they now
possess,
