ny all kinds of rumors but this thing has become so serious that we now feel it is due to the wage earner and the small investor to warn him of exact con ditions so far as the DuPont company is concerned.
 Recently when this company joined with the state of Virginia in lending money to put the new town on it's feet, this fact was shouted from the house. tops as an evidence that permanency on the present large scale was assured. As matter of fact this loan was made because of the immediate requirements of the town and it's workers. The com pany made this investment in the same way that it helped along with santa- tion and other immediate needs.
 Just now the fact that the company is building more cottages in South Hope well is being advertised extensively by real estate agents who point out in their own peculiar way that this insures good returns to anyone who will purchase vacant land in that vicinity. The com- pany is putting up cottages because it has immediate need for them and the need IS urgent enough to warrant the expenditure, but they are all of the lightest. temporary character. The com pany certainly does not regard this building operation as anything more than a meeting of present requirements and it would regret very much if the con- struction placed on it's action should lead to loss by those before whose eyes the real estate people are dangling such glittering prospects.
 In making this statement the company has no thought of putting a damper on such legitimate business and such le- gitimate investments as necessarily fol- low it's great activities, but it does feel seriously it's duty to the less we'll in formed Very truly yours,

 but the spirit giveth life" T quote from second Corinthians, chapter 4, which is a Magma Charta of spiritual freedom and splendor. We need not the decalogue to teach us, if we have the indwelling Christ. The world needs Christ, not the decalogue.

 of grace and to enforce the law. I as

 But it is shame on us all that we should have to fetch a man from far
 away to preach the gospel to us. The pastors could do it better, if they would turn from everything else to the cultiva- ton of the spirit and power of grace. Wesley, Whitefield, Sturgeon, Torrey, Moody and all the others-what were they but messengers of the exceeding grace of God? It is lamentable to think that any Christian pastor should turn away from this spiritual witness, which makes and cleanses and renews our land and should get worried because someone says the gospel is better than the law. The Savior said, "Ye are the salt of the earth'' Dr. Whitten thinks that the salt
 of the earth is the law of Moses, not
 the Living Church. To me the big words
 are Gospel, Spirit, Life.

Many of Columbus Raiders
 HdUe Been Accounted For

General Pershing's Camp at San Geronimo Ranch, Chihuahua, Mex, April S.-CBy aeroplane and motor courier to Columbus, N. NJ, April IDA good DOT tion of the bandits with whom Villa raided Columbus, N. M, March g, already has been accounted for by the expedition ary force.
 At least 46 of them and probably 50 or 50 killed in the Guerrero fight About two dozen others wounded and left be- hind by Villa have been held by the American authorities at points along the line of communication. Reports have come in indicating that some others de serted Villa Most of these claimed that they were forced to join his band.
 In addition about $50 others were scat tered over the mountains of this section in the fight at Guerrero.
 A few of the reports of Villas alleged hiding place probably are spread by Villa sympathizers in an attempt to mislead the army, but the military authorities are not relying on native information.
 More cavalry infantry and supplies are on the way along the 350-nile line, which the army has penetrated into Mexico.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1916-04-08

The expedition still is driving with the speed at which it started across the bor- der though now in a more routine spirit. The men and horses are hardened. They have reduced the days work to familiar system. The problem is to make this sys- tenn cover as wide a field daily as pos sible and to keep pushing all the time.
 The first aeropane scouting over the mountains where the Villa forces fled after they were dispersed in the battle of Guerrero was done near this camp yes- terday. The aviator, while carrying mes sages. participated in a search with a troop of cavalry for the hiding places of small band of Villa men who had es- capped into a ridge of low mountains.
 The aviator located some Mexicans near the American camp from which the cav airy had started. The peculiar garb of the Mexicans was easily distinguishable from the plane from that of the American soldiers, he said. These Mexicans were not Villa men, but residents of the coun- try about the camp.
 The aeroplane scout made out that, ex- cept for possible hiding places in caves or under precipices, the mountains over which he flew were not occupied by the Villa forces.

Why do We not want to read

and great reason is that it cuts

the reader the naked facts. And
this the profit system man doss
not like, The lne man theory
preacher and believer does rot
like it because it exposes the
preachers speculating scheme of
money getting off the Bible, and
and puts the believer on an
equal footing with the preacher
and for this reason he does not
like the CREsSET. But in order
to get the special reasons we
want every reader of the CREs'
SET to canvass their surround
ings and get all the reas asons.why
their ne;ghb )rs does not like to
read the CREsSET and send
them 10 20 US for publication

Here is the kind Of men who
love war. The same spirit that
reoeiled in heaven contro.e these
men and make them say that we
have strength and council for
the war. This all have we con.
sidered well, and we can only
say in the language of me of old:

that God hath made man upright;
but they have sought out many

ed all manner of weapons of war.
And for this reason we again,

A time to love, and a time to
hate; a time of war, and time Of

! We must say that this is the
itimc for one nation to rend all
that they can from another ma
tion. Just like it is in Europe
today. And this cause the time
to speak and tell them that it is
satan that forces war upon the
people and not God, and that
there should be preparedness for
peace and this peace must come
under the Leadership Of God S
eternal Truths. For this reason
we SPEAK and say to our readers
