The Forum writers seem to display
too much Vindictiveness. A motto in
West Side church reads: Speak
the truth in love-" We should make
due allowance for the different edu-
cations and trainings we have receiv-
ed. There are but few that deliber-
ately want to take the wrong view of
things. One writer claims that ac-
cording to the evolution theory
something must have come from
nothing" The eVolutionist begins
with nebula or star dust that is Wis
IDLE with telescope, and seeks to eX-
plain how the different formations
from nebula up to man came about
AS to where nebula came from they
may differ.
The theologians believe there is
the changed form of things. This
something they call God, and they
claim that God didn't come from
nothing, didn't make himself, but al
ways was. Some evolutionists claim
the same for nebula, that nebula al
ways was. Some claim that God
made the nebuIa, but none that ever
heard of claim that the nebula came
from nothing. This something from
nothing is a bible idea only. The
first chapter in Genesis claims that
God talked Hebrew to empty space
and not only nebula but suns, planets,
vegetable and animal life were Great
ed. The theologians have right to
patent on the something from MOTH
ing idea.
The writer further claims that to
follow Christ is the right thing to do.
If we all lived as he is said to have
lived the earth would soon become
depopulated, and if we follow His pre-
cepts and sayings we would starve to
death. Take no thought for the

IT. q. NOBLE ENTERTAINS.

The residents of Sachem's Head and other visitors to that attractive summer resort on Sunday last, were most delightfully."- entertained by H. C.. Noble, who had secured for the clos ing days of the season the services of William F'leischer, the well known cornet soloist of this city, to dispense concert solos from the portico of one of his cottages on Colonial Boulevard. Strains of sweet music produced by the cornet in the skillful hands of MT. F'leischer were unexpectedly wait ed among the cottages, greatly to the surprise and delight of all who were fortunate enough to hear them. Mr. Fleischer's rendition was at it's best and it's richness was something long to be remembered.

why he had changed his mind and finally he confessed that his favorite nephew was going out with the Guard If those who insist upon the arbi- trament of war were those who suf- fered by it, there would be more justice in that form of settling in ternatonal disputes. But now, thanks again to the leadership of President Wilson, there is sitting at New Lon don, in our own state, commission of statesmen, who are considering these difficulties with Mexico, and the prospects are that their deliberations will result in the establishment of normal conditions. Already our boys are beginning to move toward home. If all goes well-and what true Ameri- can could wish therwise-they will all come back-not like the boys from the trenches in Europe-maime ed, blinded, mere wrecks and relics of humanity, creeping brokenly home but suntanned and vigorous, the bet ter for their outing, safe and sound to peaceful American homes.
 T may be wrong about it-I may have entirely missed the spirit of American institutions, but think that it is a much finer and more splendid thing to win a victory by the processes of peace than by the brutalities of war.
 "There are some people who do not seem conscious of the underlying pur- pose of the policies of the president These are people who see only the surface of things. These are the par tially civilized people who recognize only the standards of force and ad- mire no diplomacy except the .diplo- macy of the old world. They have forgotten what America means to the world-but the president has not for gotten.
 "This country was not founded as an empire. This country was not founded to be built up into a great autocratic military power, preying upon people weaker than ourselves; this country was not founded for the purpose of following the ideals of Europe America was the embodi- ment of a much finer ideal. The fathers intended that this should be a land where all men were free and equal before the law; country, which by it's example of successful self-gov- ernment, should lift up the hopes of all humanity everywhere.
