III. The Afirmations OF Jesus.

Exactly what did Jesus mean when
he said. Il Am the Bread of lifc?"
There are other similar aiiirmations
which he makes in his teaching. He
says: Il ann the Good Shrpherd-I
am the Light of the World / ann the
Way. the Truth ami the I.ifc-I am
the True Vine" The affirmation IN

Ccption of himself which Jesus had.
1t takes him out of the class of or
Ginary men. His attirmationS reveal
his divine ancestry and work. We
cannot think of him as an ordinary
man and believe the words that he
uttered. We cannot think of him as

l. Curiosity.

Curiosity is one of the potent fac
tors in progress. Without the curios-
~ which leads him to ask many ques-
tons, the child would not grow in
knowledge so rapidly as he does.
Every teacher understands that cur
ioSity is legitimate element to use
IN his work. When the multitude fol-
lowed Jesus to Capernaum they did
SO partly because he had fed them and
they We're satisfied But they also
desired to see some of his marvellous
works. They said therefore unto
him. what then doest thou for sign,
that we may see, and believe thee?
What workest thou?" The curiosity
of the crowd can be utilized today. by
those who understand, to lead them on
to larger things. I'll may not be based
upon Il very high ideal of life. 1t
may not show very great interest.
Somebody has raised the question,
how far curiosity has to do with
church attendance today. If the pas
| tor announces a striking subject there
are about so many people in the COM
munity who will be curious to know
what he is going to say upon it. Or
| If he announces reasonable subject
the element of curiosity to hear his
message may also enter in.

DAKOTA FATHER GOES
TO ENLIST WITH SONS

The hsppiest man in the United
States pulled out OF the city yester-
day, says the Charlotte, n. c., OBJ +
server of Nov. 3. He had received, T
while here official permission to enlist |
in the company in which his sons are
serving. Company G. OF the 116th
sanitary train. commanded By Major
F. e. Wheelon. A telegram to Pres
ident Wilson did the work.
He is Alfred G. Davis, farmer of
Polette. North Dakota, and he APP
peared unheralded at the regimental
headquarters of the 164th at Camp
Greene Thursday morning.
I'm looking for my two sons, who
are in Company @, OF the Second
North Dakota" said he.
He.was informed that the Second
North Dakota was extinct, smashed,
mashed and otherwise distributed to
the four winds and the various sec
tions of the army. He gulped rather
suspiciously, blinked few times, but
came back gamely with smile, and
opined:
This travelling sure costs money.
but how do get to where my boys
are?"
Then he told his story.
You see the boys, Lyle is 20, and
Clarence is 90, have been my pals
ever since their mother died 10 years
ago. have brought the boys up
since they were kids, and when they
enlisted in Rolla's Company q,
wanted to go with them. but I could
not get away. Now I've cleared UP all
my affairs, my wife is dead, my
daughter is teaching school back
home and have nothing to hold me.
I'm old, maybe, and perhaps they
might turn me down on account of
lmy teeth being poor but sure want
to be with those two kids of mine
when they go over the top want
to do my bit too.
"Out in North Dakota they call me
Shorty Davis and when they need a
fellow to fix up horses and put them
in shape it's me they call on. Maybe
Tcould wrastle horses for Uncle Sam.
| can cook, too, and maybe can get
in there. One thing you can take for
gospel--I'm going to France"
Davis talked it over with North
Dakota man and then filed tele-
gram to President Wilson asking that
he cut the red tape and arrange for
him joining the company his sons are
in. Friday morning Davis received
telegram from Maj. F e. Wheelor
advising him that If he reported al
once he would be enlisted as cook in
his sons company.
Happy? A poor word. His face
and eyes and, whole being seemed t.
radiate happiness.
!, HThose youngsters OF mine have
eaten my chuck all their lives out OF
the old North Dakota farm, and
guess they'll get chance to eat dad
dy's grub a little while longer" h,
said as he piled on the north bouns
train.

Prof. HertzOg Praises
This Perfect Laxative
DR.. CaIdtUeIEs Syrup Pepsin
az, Ideal Remedy for
Constipation
Constipation

In every family thern is more or
less occasion for a lax, tive remedy.
1t is to meet this need that DIR. Cald-
wells Syrup Pepsin is prepared, and
that this combination of simple laxa-
tive herbs with pepsin fulfills its pur-
pose is proven by its place in thou
sands of American homes.
Prof. +. j. C. Hertzog, the we'll
known linguist, 2341 North Orianna
st. Philadelphia, Pa, wrote to Dr..
Caldwell that he has used DIR. Cald-
wells Syrup Pepsin in his household
with excellent results and that he and
his family consider 1t indeed friend
in need, and always keep bottle of 1t
on hand.
Constipation is the direct cause of
much serious illness and is a condi-
ton that should never be neglected.
Harsh cathartics and violent purga-
tives should never be employed to re-
lieve constipation, because the very
violence of their action shocks the en-
tire system. A mild laxative. such as
DR. Caldwells Syrup Pepsin is far
preferable, being mild and gentle in
its action, without gripping or other
pam or discomfort; its freedom from
all opiate or narcotic drugs makes it
an ideal remedy for children.

Wants Senate to GiUe
Fall Week to Discussion
of Wilson'S Peace Policy

Washington, Jan. %. Senator
Cummins, of Iowa, submitted q reso-
luton to the Senate to-day which
would devote the Senate beginning
next Monday to q free and full dis
cussion of the Presidents peace policy
expressed in his message yesterday.
All other business would be excluded
until every Senator had an oppor-
tunity to speak not more than an
hour. Chairman Stone, of tie For
eign Relations Committee, objected to
immediate consideration and action
was deferred until tomorrow.
The resolution cited that inasmuch
as the Presidents address called for
no official legislative action and that
the President had invited free and
frank expression of opinion for
guidance in a matter involving the
integrity of the nation and peace of
the world, 1t was the bounded duty of
the Senate to thoroughly consider the
proposals and to advise the President
regarding them.
In the present pressure of public
business" said Senator Stone, "I shall
have to object to setting aside a whole
week. for that's what 1t would take
merely to hear speeches or opinions
regarding the Presidents address
made yesterday. Such a thing is
wholly out of the question at this
time"
Senator Cummins insisted that his
resolution Lad a right to lie over for
a day without reference and said he
would object to its going to the COM
mittee. Senator Stone then withdrew
his motion and the question will come
up tomorrow and probably will pre-
cipitate general debate of all the is
sues involved

"Splendid Policy, NoHy
Expressed" Is English
View of Senate Talk

London, Jan. 23. = The Manchester
Guardian commenting on President
Wilson's speech to the Senate, calls
1t a splendid policy, nobly expressed"
The Guardian says:
THE speech in form was addressed
to the Senate, but it equally concerns
ourselves and our adversaries in the
war. The President has no inten-
ton of taking any part in the actual
negotiations of terms of peace, that
he leaves wholly to tie belligerents
He simply comes forward now to
state in unmistakable terms, both for
his own people and for the other peo-
pie OF the world every one of whom
is directly concerned, what kind of
peace it is which he will consent to
call upon his countrymen to approve
and sustain"
After quoting the chief points in
the Presidents speech, in regard to
tie conditions on which peace must
be based, the Guardian continues:
Not Palatable to Some
ut is a splendid policy, nobly ex-
pressed. How will it be received? :?
By the peoples everywhere we cannot
doubt, by men of good will and en-
everywhere not less joy
fully and with a clear perception that
this is no vision of Utopia, but a well
thought out and justly framed scheme
of q man in great position and
versed in great affairs
Asking how the belligerents will re-
gard it, the paper thinks it's principles
and phrases will be hardly palatable
to autocratic rulers or easily recon-
ciled to their traditions and methods
of government. But yet, if the peo-
pie hear them gladly, perhaps the
find in them a path of safety. AS for
ourselves they are our terms, or if
they are not they ought to be and
the mass of the nation will do we'll to
see that their rulers render to them
every possible favor and support"
Referring to the Presidents noble
words" the Guardian says:
"These are words (which will find an
echo in many hearts and words are
deeds"

Committeeman smiled and made whis-
pered comment about stripping the
decks" for action. Then he briefly
outlined the events leading up to the
Inauguration of the inquiry and out
lined the scope it probably would
take.
Announcing that Mr.. Noble would
be the first witness, he said, among
other things, that he would question
him as to the capacity of certain in
dividuals cooperating together" in the
stock market to profit thereby at the
expense of those unable to cooper
ate.
Describes Exchange
Mr.. Noble first was asked to de-
scribe for the benefit of the commit
tee the organization of the Stock EX-
change, the personnel of it's manage
ment and its rules and regulations.
Mr.. Noble described in detail "the
activities of the market on the floor
of the Exchange on a sample day."
He characterized the New York Ex-
change as great world market en-
phasiZing that a substantial proper
ton of its business came from abroad.
The Exchange itself, he said, made
no record of the daily transactions as
they occurred, this being done by the
exchange ticker. If errors were made
they were usually checked by 'inter-
ested brokers" and correction would
be sent out by the ticker. The Stock
Exchange clearing house, however,
did receive at the end of each day
from each brokerage house a state
ment of its purchases and sales, ex-
planned the witness.
Then the Stock Exchange has alb
solute knowledge of what occurs on
the floor?" asked Whipple.
That is right" Noble replied.
"Apd +bis ie accaSsibIa to tho oop,
mittee?"
"Yes"

French Comment on Speech
Sympathetic bat Skeptical;
Conceptions Are Agreeable

Paris, Jan. 23. (5:45 a. m. )-Presi-
dent Wilson's address to the Senate
is printed in full in the most promi-
nent place by all the morning papers
and comment as a whole is sympathe-
tic but skeptical. The Petit Parisien
says:
1T seems that President Wilson, as
in his previous note, has mistakenly
placed the states attacked and the ag-
gressors on the same footing, when
the distinction was an easy one which
he was in conscience bound to make.
With that stipulation we can only sub
scribe to the formula which the Pres.-
dent sets forth as a basis of future
peace. None of his conceptions can
offend us. They are ours. They were
ours long before 1917. We certainly
will not oppose them. 1t gives us
only pleasure to see these plans for
liberty and justice eloquently upheld
by Mr.. Wilson. But what will Ger
many and Austria say?"
The Matin says:
In entire agreement with Presi-
dent Wilson as to the principles enun-
)ciated by him, We nevertheless shall
believe, until more fully informed,
that there is q portion of humanity
upon which these principles must be
imposed by force: for it would be
erroneous to suppose they could be
led to accept them from conviction"
Requires New Type of Man
The Journal says:
Mr. Wilson is obSesSed with the
idea of inaugurating for the world q
golden age of universal brotherhood.
His whole message is dominated by
that noble chimera, and that must be
