-
The message of the hour is based
upon the words which are found in
the book of Job, fourteenth chapter
and fourteenth verse. IF a man die.
shall he live AGAIN." Our subject is
Immortality the Great Hope" IF a
man die, shall he live again?" Can
the t ombbe broken? Is it all of life
to live? Does death end all? Is there
no life beyond the grave? Was the
Sadducee correct in his sheer at the
teachings of Jesus when he said: Eat.
drink and be merry. for tomorrow we
die" If there was no Easter. we
would say yes, but the message of
Easter is now, has Christ risen from
the dead and become the first fruits
of them that slept. l will show you
the glory of Greece, said an ancient
10 his friend, and so saying he took
him to Scion, the Spartan law given.
And is this all, asked the man? Yes,
replied the ancient, for when thou hast
seen Scion, thou hast seer all. Scion
made Greece what he thought Greece
became. He was a typical Grecian.
Christ is Christianity.
In his inspired sermon the Apostle
Paul says, l will show you Christ risen,
then, l will show YOU the Christian
risen in Christ. l will show you Christ,
the victor of the grave. Then, | will
show YOU the Christian victor through
Christ. He who sees Scion sees
Greece. He who sees Christ sees
Christianity and all the glorious hope
of Immortality which Christ brings to
the human race. IF a man die, shall
he live again." Easter answers this
question in the affirmative.

ON SUNLIGHT.

It is astonishing how few people
there are who properly estimate the
hygienic value of the suns rays. A
valuable lesson on this point may be
learned by observing the lower ami
mails, none of which ever neglect an
opportunity to bask in the sun. And
the nearer man approaches to his
primitive condition the more he is in
clined to follow the example of ami
mails. It is a natural instinct which
civilization has partially DESTROYED in
the human race.
Sunlight is essential to life. If
by some terrible catastrophe the sun
was suddenly extinguished it is i'm
possible to conceive the misery that
would follow. In the event of such
a fearful calamity it would require
but a very short time to depopulate
the earth. 1t is questionable wheth-
er defective lighting sis not product
i've of as much physical deterioration
in the crowded tenement districts as
defective ventilation. Certainly it is
only secondary in degree. Sunlight
is as free as it is necessary, and why
human beings endowed with reason
should attempt to exclude it from
their dwellings is a thing which
passes comprehension. Let there be
light is as imperative now as when
the fiat went forth at the dawn of
creation.
We should not be afraid to let the
sunlight penetrate our dwellings, es-
pecially the morning sun. Thrifty
housewives are prone to regard the
action OF the suns rays on their in
terror decorations as disastrous in the
extreme, but it's exclusion from their
dwellings is far more disastrous to
the health Of the inmates. There is,
of course, a happy medium in all
things, and therefore, it is not neces-
sary to have the suns rays streaming
in every door and window during the
whole day; but the entire dwelling
should be, as far as possible, thrown
open to the health giving beams of
the sun for an hour in the morning.
This will, at the same time, thorough
ly ventilate the dwelling.
1t has been shown by exact re-
searches that the suns rays kill bac-
terra, and statistics have shown that
in sunny weather there are fewer in
fectious diseases, like influenza, than
The Kansas City sun. (Kansas City, Mo.) 1908-1924, 1915-04-10

in dull weather. The large number
of cloudy days during the present sea
son has probably been responsible fol
the large number of cases of la grin
in this community.
Sunshine exercises a wonderful in.
fluence over our mental condition.
We often notice that on days when
there is no sunshine, especially when.
at the same time, it is cold and damp,
we feel depressed in spirit. On sun
ny days, however, we feel better able
to work and to take outdoor exercise.
Particularly in old age is sunshine
precious. We see our old house dog
or cat lying in the sunshine and TAX.
ing a sun bath. In the same way in
stinct tells old people that the sun
is good for them and thus they eager
ly watch for it to shine and like to
sit in 1t, especially on cold days.
The effect Of sunlight is not mere.
ly to warm and raise the heat of the
body; its rays have chemical and
electric functions also. When we are
exposed to the sunlight for a long
time and get an inflamed skin, this
is due mainly to the chemical rays.
The relief which strong sunlight af-
lords neuralgia and inflammatory
pain is due, likewise, to its chemical
action.
The ancient Romans made use of
the healing action of sunshine and
many of them took sunbaths on the
roofs of their houses. There we're
also public Jul baths much visited by
the population.
Exposure to the sun for a certain
length of tire causes dilation OF the
blood vessels, and later on, abundant
perspiration. This not only stimulates
the skin but relieves the kidneys. The
quality of the blood is also improved
by the action of sunlight upon the
body.
Not only persons in good health but
particularly those suffering from ner-
vous diseases and insomnia, rheuma-
tism, and the chilliness which is the
result Of sluggish circulation, will be
greatly benefited by frequent sun
baths.
Sunshine is a finer stimulus than
wine, electricity or massage, and not
withstanding the high estimate we
have learned to place upon its reju-
venating and healing powers, we are
now on the verge of greater dis.
coveries concerning it.

Wright, with the assistance Of Fishery w.

moments OF the story and enlarged upon
the character OF s.Preachin' Bilr', making
. character OF him that will be long re-
membered by theatre-goers. Naturally
the love between Sammy Lane" and
"Young Matt" is the pivot upon which
the play revolves.
Occasionally some play strikes . note
that rings out clear and true in the midst
Of the commonplace, and impressss its
auditors with the thought that it was
written not for gain, not for pastime
but because some man had something to
say to other man and he took this means
Of expression. 1.-THE Shepherd OF the
