FROM THE PEOPLE
FROM w. f. WHITFORD.

Editor News: In a recent issue
of your valuable paper appears an
article under the heading ga protest
against a protest" signed by CELSIUS.
It would take much of your valua-
BILE space to reply to his 'lpse dlxlt,
without a single proof, whatever, be-
ing cited.
Only one of his broad assertions l
wish to notice: prof. Whitford states
in his protest, and | suppose will
teach in the class room; this glorious
Republic was formed on the Bible.
Then proceeds to protest against my
teaching $50 palpably erroneous
doctrine to the children of Arkansas :
After setting up his own Clubhouse,
-"I suppose will teach"-he proceeds
to "protect" thus knocking his own
structure.
But he denys that this nation was
founded on the Bible He cites the
Constitution, as if it was a bit OF
history: and gloats over the fact that
mo mention of Bible or God or OF
religion" Is that proof Yet that
is on par with his whole article
Dear reader, let us take Ben
Franklin on this subject, for he was
not only the greatest newspaper man
in his time, but he was the greatest
philosopher and scientist in his age;
as member of the convention that
framed this Constitution, he is IN bet
ter position to tell US, than this
CELSIUS" We will rest our cause
with the words of this man, IN that
convention:
"Nr. President; The small pro
Dress we have made after four weeks
close attention and continual reason
ings with each other,-our different
sentiments on almost every question,
several of the lsst producing as many

crAlv proof of the imperfection OF hu-
man understanding. We indeed seek
to feel our want of political WISDOM
since we have been running about IN
search of it. We have gone back 10
ancient history for models OF govern
ment, and examined the different
forms of those republics which, nav
mo been formed with the seeds OF
their own dissolution, now no longer
exist. And we have viewed modern
states all round Europe, but find none
of their constitutions suitable to our
circumstances.
"In this situation of this Assem-
blv. cropping as it were in the dark
to find political truth, and scarce
able to discern it when presented
to us, how has it happened sir, that
we have not hitherto once thought
of humbly applying to the Father OF
lights and illuminate our understand
ines? In the beginning of the con-
test with Great Britain, when we were
sensible of danger, we had daily pray
or in this room for the Divine pro-
lection. Our prayers were heard, and
they were graciously answered. All
of us who were engaged in the strug-
gle must have observed frequent
instances of experimenting Provi-
dence in our favor To that kind

tunity of consulting in peace on the

While this system of gasolene as
tribution is the latest offering from the
Sparks Wilmington Company, ITS eX-
bibit embraces a complete line OF us
other products. There are the Sparton
motor horns, made in eight models
four hand operated and four electric
driven. The hand operated models
have a new type OF lever. Already
forty-two motor car companies have
selected Sparton as standard equip
ment.
The Sparton radiator is a honeycomb
type. These are now in use on many
cars. Sparton fans are regular equip

gasolene motor cars.
Increase of business in the last year
has made necessary an addition to the
factory at Jackson, Mich, which doubles
the size OF the present plant. But, with
all this press Of business, the company
has found the time to act in the promo
ton of the safety first idea for auto
mobile driving. Under the immediate
direction OF Captain William Sparks,
president Of the company and founder
of the Lincoln Highway Association,
Spsrton safety signs have sprung up
from coast TO coast along the Lincoln
Highway, marking every dangerous
curve and bridge FOR the guidance Of
motor tourists Parts Of New England,
too, sre marked of with these signs,
and the company is planning additional
work OF this nature for the coming sea

facturer has given more serious atten-

but actually restful to its passengers.

one might call it, while partly the re
suit Of the increased demand brought
about by the war, is the result OF
years of study to produce a car of the
sort demanded by foreign motorists.
an connection with our study We
have arrived at one definite conclu-
sion, that genuine and adequate SER
vice must back up every car sold
abroad. We have found that this is
absolutely essential, though it is a
phase of successful foreign business
that too many American makers have
overlooked. Tho trick is to extend
the same sort Of service to far-off
Asia as you do TO the commuter of
New jersey.
Indeed, some late improvements Of
our general service plan for the do
nestle field are the direct by-products
of our exporting business. In other
words. the Interstate has imported
some beneficial service ideas and plans
