NORTH MOLINO LETTER.

North Moline, Mo, Dec. 6.-Beau-
tiful weather; ideal.
Rev. Fred. White preached his last
sermon at Mt. Zion Sunday night.
He has resigned and goes to another
field. We certainly wish him every
success.
There were several Thanksgiving
dinners, among them at the home of
Mrs. John Cawthorn, who had fine
goose roast. Several of the close rela-
tives to eat with her. Mrs. j. F.
Flynt entertained her father and
mother, Mr.. and Mrs. Roberts, of
Columbia, her uncle and aunt, Mr..
and Mrs. Milton Roberts, and daugh=
ter, Miss George Roberts,
Mr.. and Mrs. Felix Martin and
granddaughter, Miss Ruby Martin,
went to Vandalia Thursday and re-
NAMED until Saturday. They ate
Thanksgiving supper with r. s. Mar
/ tin and family. When invited TO the
dining room they beheld a long table
that fairly groaned, so to speak,
with good things to eat.
The Bethel ladies, we understand
took in over $40 at their bazaar. We
are glad of their success.

NO MORE RELIGIOUS
THAN ARE MEN.
That's What The Women Were Told
by a Famous Magazine Writer in
st. Louis.

Are women more religious than
men?
mo" said Charles Stelzle, famous
magazine writer and field secretary
of the Federal Council of the
Churches of Christ in America.
And DR.. Stelzle had the nerve of
his convictions, for he told hundreds
of women mo" to their faces on last
Sunday in st. Louis.
Perhaps DR.. Stelzle thought he
would be immune from assassination
because he used to be st. Louis pas
tor. But whatever he thought he
certainly told the women they "are
not more religious than men, in spite
of the declaration of the poets and
the philosophers" He told the WON
en- few other things, as follows:
1T is undoubtedly true that WON.
en- are more moral than men, but
their morality usually is more con
lventional than a mans. The fac
that there are three times as many
women in the churches as there ar,
men doesn't prove that women arr
more religious than men. This SIT
uation is due to the fact that tn,
church has been practically the onl,
Organization which thus far has Civ
en- woman a chance to express he
social instincts. Men have had thi
chance in other organizations.
with the development of women
movements, which have in them
selves strong religious motives, an
which may rival the church in thei
appeal to women, the day may com
when the men inside the churche
will become anxious about the won
en- who are outside, just as toda
: some women are anxious about til
men who are outside the church
zone reason there are at Leaf
three times as many men in the pei
, itentiary as there are women is b.
: cause most women lead sheltere
: lives. Men often go to Jail to she
l ter some woman. They are protec
, ed from the rougher things in lif
1t is not because men are natural
more criminal in their tendencie
l. The woman who has always be-
;. shielded should have the largest syr
{ pathy for her sister who has gol
J, wrong, usually because she has be,
d subjected to temptation which the a
l. erage woman knows nothing about

The Chief Scout Librarian of the
Boy Scouts of America has propOs-
ed what he calls Good Book Week"
for December 40, with the hope
that parents may be reused to a real
ization of the importance of buying
good books for their boys, If they
buy any at all. The movement has
received hearty approval from libra
rians, book sellers, public school
teachers, pastors. special writers for
newspapers, magazines and religious
journals, and as a result the Good
Book Week" movement has spread
over the entire country. The Boy
Scout Moment has prepared list of
more than 400 of the best books for
boys, books that have the element OF
appeal in the way of adventure and
stirring action, and are full of infor-
nation and inspiration. The impor-
lance of a child's reading cannot be

In our opinion says an exchange,

In our opinion says an exchange,
a mans credit rating should be based
upon the taxable property he con-
fesses under oath to the assessor.
1t is a pity, but it seems to be true,
that a prevailing fault among other
wise good American citizens is to
avoid the payment of their JUST
share of taxes, which are used TO de-
fray the expenses of government Two
remedies for this condition suggest
themselves-one the passage of a
law penalizing these periurers by
voiding any paper they may possess
on which taxes are not paid Another
by imposing the much derided and
ubiquitous" single tax on land. If
every foot of land in the country were
taxed the process of evasion would be
very much hampered, because the
land is always in evidence. But this
latter method of taxation is most un-
popular and it would be almost next
to impossible to get on the statute
books. AS to the former method, il
enacted into law, it would make some
of the money lenders sit up and take
notice If, for instance, one Johr
Smith were to step forward and show
that whereas he had duly borrowed
say $4,000, from James Jones ct :
certain period, and that the latte
had practically disavowed the obi
cation in making his returns to the
tax assessor and that consequently
according to law said obligation wal
wiped out in consequence.
