WILL AND THEODORE.

A notable spectacle will be staged at the
Union League club in New York City next
week when two illustrous citizens and former
presidents, William Howard Taft and Theo-
dore Roosevelt will shake hands while moving
picture cameras click and enthusiastic behold
ers make the wekin ring with cheers. It is
said to be six years now since these two men
have met on the same platform and have
spoken civilly to each other. Their falling out
made history, for it defeated Mr.. Taft of sec
ond term, very possibly defeated Mr.. Roosevelt
of third term and made Mr.. Wilson president
1t is not of record that Mr.. Taft has said any
bitter things Of Mr.. Roosevelt; and being men
of generous impulses, naturally loyal to friend
ship, it is probable that both of them are glad
enough to let bygones be. The bigger men are,
as rule, the less they live in the past and the
quicker they are to forget and forgive. Liv-
ing in the present and building for the future
keeps wise men busy enough nowadays without
nourishing old envies and hates. These two ex-
presidents are big men, though quite unlike:
and we have no doubt that when Senator Root
Introduces" them, seems now to be the
plan, Mr.. Tafts expansive smile will be sim
cere and Mr.. Roosevelt will display his teeth
in genuine delight.

DECLINE OF VILLA.

It isn't among the probabilities that Pancho
Villa will come all the way back in Mexico.
Not the power of Carranza, not the influence or
the arms of the United States, not the weak
ness of Pancho himself-none of these consid.
erations can hinder revolution in Mexico
But Panchos popularity among the bandit
braves isn't everlasting. Mexico is tickle, and
revolution soon is retired on pension of for
getfulness.
Villas ascent reached the pinnacle of fame
and glory when he baited the United States In
to an armed pursuit. That was the climax OF
the Villa career. The sublimest heights of bad

UNITED Press Leased Wire Service]
CHICAGO, Sept. 2S.-A school for
teaching bread making to Chicago
housewives, was opened here today
by the Woman's Association of Com
merce. to meet the increase in bread
prices which are in effect today,
Mrs. Florence King is leading the
movement "We will not only show
women how to make cheap bread, but
we also will sell our surplus at five
cents loaf and show the bakers we
can make money" she said.
Women should bake corn bread.
1t is more wholesome and cheaper
than white bread. The use of rice
in bread making should be encour-
aged as rice has not increased in
price"
Local flour dealers came to the de-
tense of the bakers today, saying
flour has increased from SO to $3.50
a barrel recently. They said other
ingredients have also gone up and
that this forces bakers to charge
more.

Christianity and War.

DR.. Ttsujiro Inon in The Young
Mems Magazine: "Can christianity
answer for itself in face of the great
war is question widely asked in the
east.
Twenty months have gone by
since the war broke out, and Euro
pean thinkers are now studying many
post bellum problems of spiritual as
well as economical and political
character. What has most deeply
impressed us about the present war
is the great decline in the influence
of religion.
"AIl the states of Europe are now
tearing one another savagely. What
does christianity teach? 1t teaches
Love your neighbors!' and Love
your enemies.' But what is the war
showing? They are numbering their
neighbors. and studiously endeavor-
ing to kill their enemies. On Christ
mas day they ceased fighting. This
was the only day on which christian
ity had any influence with them.
Nearly all the European wars
fought in medieval times were con-
nected with the christian religion.
The crusade was not the only reli-
gious war. But the present war has
nothing to do with religion. and this
is worthy of special mention.
1.-THE various scholastic theories
which have come into vogue since
the nineteenth century also point to
the steady decline of the christian in
fiuence There are churches today as
there were before. These have ma
terial existence. Spiritually they
mean nothing. The christian religion
cannot exist in world where they
are killing one another with fire.
