WAR NO CHRISTIAN TEST.
Rev. John MacMurray Defends Re
ligion Against Critics.

Christianity and "churchianity" must
not be confused in their relationship to
the European war. Rev. John MacMur-
ray declared in his sermon at the Union
NJ E. Church last night.
Men say that Christian civilization
has failed in the present crisis in Eu-
rope" he said. TT has not failed. 1t
has never been tried Europe knows
little of real Christian civilization.
Asia far less The bloody wars of the
centuries to propagate and preserve
the so-called Christian faith have been
a travesty on the message and methods
of Jesus, the prince of peace.
The present savage war in Europe,
rapidly apparently involving the whole
world. is only a Darwinian reversion to
type: the chief actors are only going
back to the habits Of their remote an
cestors in the jungles.
Christianity has little to do with the
war in Europe except through its Red
Cross and other humanitarian work of
relief for distress caused by the war.
Too much so-called Christianity is up
i'll the the air of foggy speculation or
wrapped in dead mummy forms. Men
confuse Christianity and churchianity."

HOME OF THE DINOSAUR.
Como Bluff, Wyo., Classic Ground
for Those Interested in Fossils.

Como Bluff, Wyoming. is classic
ground to those interested in the fossil
remains of animals that inhabited this
region long ages ago, for it was here
that the first dinosaur bones were dis
covered in the Rocky mountain region.
Some of the dinosaurs were the largest
land animals that ever walked the
earth, and some were diminutive.
They differed greatly in size. shape.
structure and habits Some were plant
eaters: others fed on flesh. Some
walked on four feet: others with small,
weak fore limbs walked entirely upon
the strongly developed hind legs. Some
had reptilelike feet; others were bird
footed. Some had toes provided with
long, sharp claws; others had fiat
tened hooflike nails.
There We're dinosaurs with small
heads and others with large heads. Some
We're large and cumbersome: others were
small light and graceful. and SO much re-
Semoled birds in their structu..e that only
the skilled ana atomist can distinguish their
remains. Some OF enormous size were
clad in coats of bony armor. which
gave them most bizarre appearance.

BUYS ARTILLERY RANGE.
U. S. Obtains 10000 Acres al
Tobyhanna, Pa.

The War Department has purcha ased
for $4,000 tract of about $4,000 acres
of land at Tobyhanna. Pa, which will
be used as a field artillery target range
for both militia and regular troops.
Money for the purchase was appropri-
ated by Congress two years ago.
1t is probable that at least one similar +
range will be acquired in the south,
pI ouably IN Georgia or Alabama, and
another in California for troops on the
Pacific coast. This will be dependent
upon the development of the militia in
those sections. There are already
ranges for the joint use of militia and
regular troops at Fort Riley, Kan, and
at Sparta, Wis.
