The Church and the Community
lsy Frank g. eeardsIey.l

Washinfton said: "Of all the disposi.
tions and habits which lead to politi.
cal prosperity, religion and morality
are Indispensable supports. A volume
could not trace all their connections
with private and public felicity. Let
it be simply asked. where il the
security for prosperity, for reputation,
for life, II the sense Of religious obli-
cation desert the oaths which are the
instruments of investigation in courts
Of justice. And let US with caution
indulge the superstition that morality
can be maintained without religion. -
Men sometimes affirm that they are
in favor OF religion. but sre opposed
to the church. Such a position is not
wen taken for we cannot have reli-
gfon without the church. The two
are inseparable. You can no more
sustain the interests Of religion with
out the institutions of religion than
you can promote education without
educational institutions, without
schools and colleges and universities.
If religion is to be maintained, the
institutions of religion, or our
churches must be maintained. From
purely material considerations and
from motives Of public policy no city
can aHorQ 10 neglect It's churches.
Men who seldom attend church AMI
rarely contribute dollar towards its
support, would not care, nevertheless.
to rear their families in a community
where there were no churches. for
these institutions not only add to
property values but they are the
strongest safeguards to life, liberty
and the pursuit Of happiness"

Desirable and Attractive.
From the standpoint of it's churches
Keokuk is a desirable AMI an attrac
tive place in which to live. for ours is
a city not only Of fine homes, excel
lent schools, and splendid public
buildings, but Of beautiful churches
There are few cities Of its size which
are provided with more oommodious
and more beautiful churches or finer
Y. NJ. and Y. W. c. A. buildings. In
these we should take just pride and
should see to it that they are MAIN
tanned at the highest possible degree
of efficiency for in a larger sense
than we usually realize they are
ministering to our happiness and well
being.

An Automobile Problem.

Washta Journal: An Iowa editor is

not be space to park the machines

be the worst trouble. When every

every automobile owner do a livery

The church 10 community builder
In the making Of community, next
to the home it is almost the drst In
stitution to be established. When our
Pilgrim fathers left the old world to
venture upon their hazardous enter
prise across the seas. they brought
the church with them, and from that
day to this the church has occupied
a conscipuous place in the building
OF the nation. The student Of his
tory is familiar with tho part which
the church played in the thirteen
original colonies. After the Revolu-
tionary war. among the formative
forces which operated in the building
and the middle west the church was
an important factor. Across the
mountains, through the forests, and
out into the great prairies. wherever
new territories and new settlements
were springing up the institutions Of
religion were carried. Side by side
with the pioneer settlers the home
mis- stonary and the circuit-rider trav-
eled to lay the foundations OF the
christian religion. Wherever a COM
munity was established. amidst the
homes of the first settlers. the little
house Of worship was erected to pro-
vide for the public worship of God.
1t would be simply impossible to
overestimate the influence of this fac
tor in the life of the nation. AS John
Henry Barrows has said: THE cap
tains of industry and the leaders of
commercial expansion have not done
SO much to make ours the greatest
nation as have the christian pioneers
who have carried the gospel through
forest and over mountain and prairie
from Maine to California, from
Minnesota to Florida"
Church Valuable Asset.
The church has not only played
an important part in the building of
the community. but it remains one
of the most valuable assets in the
life Of the community. In summing
up the advantages of city our at
tention is apt to be conferred almost
exclusively upon material interests,
such as the size of it's bank deposits,
the volume of its business, the num-
Der Of its mercantile Establishments,
wholesale and retail, the size and
number Of its manufacturing plants
together with the number of men
which they employ, etc. To under
estimate the value of these elements
in the life of community would be
both idle and foolish, for they lie at
the very basis of our material pros
perfty, and yet no community should
be measured by these things alone.
for there are cultural ano spiritual
interests which contribute to the life
of the community just as truly as the
commercial and the material.

Alabama Coal,

The earliest known record Of the ex.
istence Of coal in Alabama was made
in 1884, but the first statement OF pro-
duction in the state is contained in the
United States census report for 1S4l,
in which the amount mined is given az
Gas tons. The mines Of Alabama were
probably worked to a considerable ex-
tent during the Civil war, but there are
no specific records until 1870, for
which the United States census re-
ports a production Of 1900 tons. The
development Of the present great in
dustry really began in 1881 and 1882,
when attention was directed to the
large iron deposits near the city OF
Birmingham. In 1914, according to
the United States geological survey,
the production was 15,593,422 tons.

Pot Shcotino at Professors.

Professional Harvard awoke the 9TH
er morning to find itself in the lime
light, and many professor who
dropped into peaceful slumber the
night before is scratching lis head
nervously and asking what can be
done, remarks the Boston Traveller.
Two rather frisky Harvard under
graduates had taken it into their
heads to give the members Of
the Harvard faculty bad three or
four days, so Elmer Ellsworth Ragler,
Jr., spent his leisure moments in q
month by drawing cverzealous like
nesses Of some Of the colleges most
reyered professors, and prefacing
each sketch with a bit Of satire. Rob
ert c. Bacon, '16, who received his
degree. in midyear, published and copy
righted the book, which went on sale
to rushing business.
Fagler has been in the eye Of the
Harvard college Office before, for his
clean-cut editorials in the Crimson,
often or a TaClcal nature, nave WaUe
him more or less a marked man, ana
his drawings and writings in the
Lampoon have been feature Of three
seasons. Bacon has just retired as
business manager Of the Lampoon.
Harvard Inside Out is the name
of the harbinger Of disquietude that
b,. ,1roo5,. creafe5 furore at Har-
ward, and everybody that is some
body st Harvard, save Prof. Adolphus
Terry, gets a jab from Eagler. The
foibIes, eccentricities and vanities Of
more than a score Of Harvard pro-
fessors have been hit off by the youth
full writer, and the undergraduates and
public are having more than a quiet
laugh and awaiting results.
