Lesson text Daniel /.
Nearly three hundred years after
the time of JOash NcbuchadneZZar
overran the land of judah and ma-2
it tributary to Babylon. Besides pos
sesSing himself Of much valuable
spoil, the AsSyrian king took num-
Der of the choicest young men OF
Judah back home with him TO be
educated as Courtiers in the royal
palace. Four of these are mentioned
in this lesson, chief among them
Daniel, who was renamed Beltesha~-
zar, and the others We're given the
names Of Shadrach, Meshach an"
AbCdn2go. by their Assyrian names
we know them as three Hebrews who
WithstOud the test of the fiery fur
mace. But Daniel was the man who
specially made his mark in his new
surroundings ann eXcrted an influ-
Cnce on the king and people Of the
conqucring race that was wonderful,
were il not for the fact that ne was
a fcN entity conscientious man and
God was with him at all times. The
outstanding feature of Daniels char
acter was that at all times and under
all circumstances he maintained the
integrity Of his convictions without
regard To the cost At no time was
anybody able to move lim in the
least from that course OF conduct
which the law of God laid down for
his direction. We can imagine what
a task this was for a young man, a
captive in strange country, in cur-
tact with a strange religion, and placed
directly under the eyes of the king
himself whore ordinary prudence
would have suggested the wisdom Of
discarding his own opinions and
catering to the favor of his new
sovereign. But Daniel was built of
different material. He believed In
doing right because it was right, and
no hope Of reward or fear fo punish
ment could move him from his course,

Also, by sidetracking the wine the
temptation to excess, so hard to re-
strain in young men, was put out of
the way. We cannot make out of this
lesson direct argument in favor of
either Vegctarianism or total abstin-
cnce, but it does teach us the duty Of
standing inflcXibly by conscientious
convictions, even in matters deemed by
most men of so little Importance as
meat and drink. Eating meat and
drinking wine under the conditions of

hut eating meat and drinking wine

that too in a strange city far away
from home influences, was an en-
tirely different thing. The tempta-

idolatrous customs of the people of

boys succeeded because they stood by
the religion Of their fathers, even in
matters which, in a different day and

Where agriculture reigns supreme
And men cooperate;
A people born with wondrous power
That bids us onward move;
Cooperation Is our theme,
Our slogan-"To improve"
We share whatever we have learned
With forward moving men,
Who gave us of their ripened thought
That we may learn of them.
Improvement grows from year to year
Along the farming line;
For better methods-higher aims,
Our forces we combine.
We love the country made by God,
Its homes made fair by man;
We claim with pride our sturdy sons
Who boast the cheek of tan;
We love our homes wherein we dwell.
Our farms on which we toll;
Well raise the best crops in the land
From Camas Prairie soil,

Let high our anthem soar;

INVESTIGATING RAPID AH-
VANCE OF GASOLINE IN FLA.

Pensacola, Dec. 3O-That Attor-
ney General West of Florida is con-
Quoting quiet investigation into
the rapid advance in the price of
gasoline became known in Pensacola
yesterday. 1t is understood the at
torney general has asked for price
quotations from this as well as all
other Florida cities and is trying to
ascertain if all of the companies
selling the stuff that make the autis
whi7 are working in unison in ad-
vancing prices.
A few weeks ago gasoline was
selling at fifteen cents per gallon,
with slightly higher figure when
bought at retail. ow the wholesale
price is twenty cents per gallon
with the retailers selling it at
twenty-five cents. Another advance
in price may be expected soon. No
reason is given as to why the price
has advanced, but the change in
prices is general throughout the
country and no particular section is
being favored with low price gaso-
line
Three companies are doing busi-
ness in Pensacola and three should
be plenty of competition, but de-
spite this fact all advance the price
practically simultaneously
The department Of justice at
Washington also Is taking cogni-
zance of the antics of gasoline, ac
cording to the following Associated
Press dispatch last night.
Department of Justice officials
said tonight that the continued rise
in the price of gasoline probably
will be made the subject of an inves-
tigation to determine whether there
is any violation Of The Sherman law,
Since no formal complaint has reach
ed Washin eton it Is intimated the
Investigation could be begun on the
