\ FEW THOUGHTS FOR THE

Editor News-Times:
one Of the surprises of the day is
the stand certain Christians are
taking on the issues of the present

with their religious profession that
one wonders how they can harmon
lie the two. They are about as con-
sistent as the Endorsement Of the
liquor traffic by the teetotaler In for
mer years there may have been room
for honest differences Of opinion on
the issues of a campaign. but in
this there is absolutely no consis-
tent reason a Christian can give for
voting against the reelection of
Pres't Wilson.
