Duty Of Christianity to Evangelze the

Some years ago, the question was
asked What Is a college? The at
tempt to answer It shook the educa.
tional world in America from center
to circumference. Another question is
now beginning to be asked: What is
a Church? Without undertaking to
give a definition of it, let me ask, in
this initial paper, what the chsrch
is for? The New Testament reveals
three distinct tasks to which 1t is
committed.
First, that of evangelization. The
church is diyinely commissioned to
reach for the lowest and the least
man in the least land and offer him
sonship to the Eternal God; offer him
a divine power, which lifts him out
Of the bog and places him upon the
highest levels OF human life, where
God and the soul are in fellowship.
This alone were an immense priv.
ilege.

Aluminium In Automobiles.

Metallic aluminium now completes
strongly with other sheet metals and
with wood in the manufacture of au-
tomobile bodies, according to reports
by the United States Geological Sur
vey, Department of the Interior.
This position in the market has been
attained through improvement in
foundry methods for casting metallic
aluminium and increase in knowledge
of suitable alloys. Large sections OF
aluminium castings are now used in
making touring cars and the inclosed
bodies of certain other motor cars, a
use which was not practicable ten
years ago. Cast aluminium is also
used for making automobile dashes.
Bodies made of it are lighter than
those made of other sheet metal and
have a rigid surface that will not dent
easily when handled. They are also
safer in case of accident. The alum
mum surface retains paint we'll, and
the increased rigidity makes the car
more durable.

gested that in order to develop the
parcel post along these lines the pos
tage rate must be reduced from 5 tC
cent for the first pound and hall
cent for subsequent pounds up to 80
Food shipments at these rates, he
said, could be confined to the 800.
mile zones of the cities, and would
enable the heavier products to move

The object of the two departments
is to bring the producer and consumer
in close touch and thus avoid the

A Wise Gambler and His Gold.

At this moment the United States
is more deeply submerged in gold
than was ever the fate or fortune OF
any other country. The supply OF
gold which comes here rs the result
of Europe's buying Of war munitions
has become so stupendous that it car
ries with it possibilities of gravest
import. However, It's reassuring to
learn from the able bankers of the
Federal Reserve Board and the advis-
DRY committee that danger to the
United States from this food of gold
can be averted if our people can be
prevented from overspeculating and
overexpanding. The immense a
mount of new gold poured into this
country tends powerfully to boost the
price of every commodity. 1t also
creates the basis for financial specu-
lation of the widest kind. 1t encur-
ages business of all kinds to overreach
itself during period of temporary
prosperity. What our country must
do in order to avoid a collapse in our
gold supply after the war quite as
violent as the limitations of it has been
during the war is to capitalize in sol.
id and substantial things this unwont-
ed surplus. The gambler who mere
ly goes on and speculates with his
big winnings is quite certain in time
to lose them. He can very readily
protect his winnings by ceasing to
gamble. In the same way the United
States today may protect its new
found gold, but it will not protect
that GOLD if it pursues a policy of
commercial and industrial intlation.-

Responding to second challenge,
the announcement will be made:
