bit the cat because the cat bit the o

and hit the dog because it bit the cat

the fire and burned the stick because
it hit the dog, etc. Then came the
water and put out the fire that almost
burned the stick because it bit the
dog, etc. Then came the OK and
drank the water because it extin-

"O4h mig gill yOiiIl INllGy'
LOVE.-Love is the expression of
the human mind or soul. It's the I'M
ion of two in one. Love is represent
ed by a factor and a component in
man and woman. Love is not the
mind, but holds the same relation to
the mind that light holds to the eye.
It is the light that makes the eye of
service to man; so with love. It pre-
serves the mind, so it can be trans
mitted from one generation to an
other. Without mind man would be
like blind person cropping in the
dark, not knowing what he is doing
or why he is doing it. In the days of
Judaism love was represented by the
all-seeing eye. The keystone in the
arch of Solomon's temple represent
ed the mind. with the eye in the CEN
ter The mind, being material like
the eye, takes love to illuminate it
and make it useful to man. Don't
trifie with love. If you want to see
the result of tri1ing, pay Dunning a
visit. Mind produces two senses,
knowledge ana UNDERSTANDING. WIN |
those two senses man cannot go
astray. The Day Book has many adj
vocates Of .pOlygamy and plural mar
riages. They are only the apeings of
our college sirfessors and other
mouth organs that try to fool the |
people.
st. Paul says: Without love we are |
nothing"
Our system Of economics, religion
and education is evidence that we
have no learned men among us. We |
have the ethical and literary, but the
learned are few. The Romans play
ed a mean trick on the people in for
bidding the priests to marry. The |

priests have no more mind than a bat,
as they sold their birthright to be
priest. He has no love; does not know
what love is; consequently he has no
mind, as love is the evidence of mind.
No person can know what love really
is until he is married to loving wife
and has children of his own. Born of
love, then he learns what love is. He
is not only willing to work for their
keeping, but sacrifice his life in their
defense.
It should be the aim of all men to
produce the man according to law
and the original plan. The Christians
aim is to reform man. They have
plans only, as they are devoid of
mind, and they think man is spiritual
They don't know and can't under
stand Gods ways. All manual work
ers interested in the future welfare
of your brothers, don't cOuntenance
polygamous or plural marriages.

that the majority of the girls who fall

SHOWS THE NECESSITY
OF COLLECTIVE ACTION
Declares Glass Distinction Is Being
Removed Constantly, and Gives
Real Measure Of Men.

Secretary of War Newton n. Baker
made an address on Preparedness"
yesterday at the presentation exercises
at Gailaudet College at Kendall Green.
The exercises were held in the chapel
which was packed to the doors with
friends and relatives of the students
This preparedness is not so much
cannon and firearms. but a redressing
of the soul and redistribution of the
things that are needed for the bet
terment of the national life.
''All over the country" he said, you
Will find this outbreak for prepared
ness. 1t is not military. You hear of
men going to Plattsburg and other
camps, and when they return. ask them
what they learned. and they will not
tell you that they learned to keep step,
how to salute and other things mill
tary. put that they learned something
about idealiZing America. In the
homes this emotional outbreak takes
the form of q demand for higher
form of Justice.
Each, of you here will be part of
America when the nation is weighed
in the balance. You now are going out
to become part of the nation. The
nation is dependent upon the intellect
and vigor of our character.
