IS OPPOSED TO
UNITING OF CHURCHES

Under the heading, so Many
Churches" the Rev. w. H. Bridge,
rector of St. Marks Episcopal church,
yesterday dealt with a subject of com
mon interest, especially at this time. He
very frankly faced the disadvantages of
the multiplicity of churches, stating that
it meant that most ministers were not
paid living wage; that most churches
were furnished in a way that would be
! a discredit to private residence, and
that architecturally they did not set an
example of artistic beauty to the com
munity. He lamented also the weakness
that arose from the lack of united wit
ness, but claimed that there was some-
thing other than narrowness, jealousy
and greed accounting for the existence
of our many different Christian
churches.
In his opinion each church exists to
interpret some distinctive and necessary
truth, just as each nation, each family,
each social group, exists, not necessarily
in antagonism, but to fulfill distinct
purpose "Thang God for diversity; /;
predatory Standardization means the
stoppage of progress A church, there
fore has right to exist, not merely
because it is like every other church,
but because it is different.
1T would be pretty dull world if
everybody had a face like mine" Rev.
Bridge claimed that we do not want
uniformity either in faces or churches,
or in nationalities, as the charm Of life
is diversity
Further along this line, Rev. Bridge
said EACH great church has its mes
sage for the race and its duty is to de-
velope that message and to correlate it
with the messages of all Others True
catho1icity is to be obtained, not by
watering down Christianity to the low
est common denominator, but by livingl
up to the highest common measure.
The fact is that no mind, or group Of
minds. has proprietary right to the
whole truth about Christianity or any
thing else.
"The idea of the sudden annihilation
of existing churches in favor of kind !
Of community christianity by cutting out
all the peculiar features of the various
churches. is about as absurd as the ami
nilation of family relationship in favor
If community fellowship. One man may |
be as good as another; but one husband |
IS not as good as another, TO most wives
"I love my community. because | love
nv family. I love all Christian fellow
ships because | am loyal to my own. I
What | don't learn in a narrow circle. !

STARTLING SHORTAGE FOUND IN
IDAHO ENDOWMENT FUNDS

| BOISE, Idaho, Sept. 15-A net
shortag eof $284,795 has been founc
IN the irreducable endowment funds
OF Idaho by State Auditor Clarence
Van Deusen, who, in compliance with
authority vested in him by the last
Legislature, which made an appropria-
tion for that purpose, has been trac-
ing and checking the records in the
land department. The shortage found
is contained in the first of a series
of reports to be filed with Governor
Alexander. This shortage, he says,
will be greatly increased when he has
an opportunity to prove out the es-
cheated estates. Enormous losses
vii also be shown, he says, in the un-
derappraisement of lands.
In recapitulation the state auditor
shows funds short the following sums

The state is held responsible for

these funds, says the state auditor,
and will probably be required to ap-
propriate, in addition to the short
age. 100000 accrued interest.
He estimates a further loss of
$4,000 because of failure to- credit
from the funds and $4,000
on mortgage foreclosure. The report
covers the period from 1885 to June
30, 1918, inclusive.

day, accompanied by his 19-year-old son,
Marion, who had just arrived from
Canada, and was here to register under
the new man-power law The young
man is anxious to get into the service
at once, and would prefer to enlist in
the aviation corps. 1t will be necessary,
in all probability, however, for him to
wait now for his classification and call.
Young. Porter has been running a
tractor on his fathers 100 acre farm in
Alberta and was unable to reach home
to register last Thursday He states that
the crop on the land will run about SO
per cent of normal.

For centuries GOLD MEDAL HARLEM
Oil has been standard household remedy
for kidney, liver, bladder and stomach
trouble, and all diseases connected with
the urinary organs. The kidneys and blad-
der are the most important organs of the
body. They are the filters, the purifiers of
yoVr blood. If the poisons which enter
your system through the blood and stom-
ach are not entirely thrown out by the
kidneys and bladder, you are doomed.
WEAKNESS, sleeplessness, nervousness,
dependency, backache, stomach trouble,
headache, pain in loins and lower abdo-
men, gall stones, gravel, difficulty when
urinating, cloudy and bloody urine, rheu-
matism, sciatica and lumbago, all warn you
to look after your kidneys and bladder.
All these indicate some weakness of the
kidneys or other organs or that the enemy

INCREASE IN WESTERN
CANADA LAND VALUES
But Forty and Fifty Bushels of
Wheat to the Acre.

During the past year there has been
a greater demand for farm lands in
Western Canada than for a number of
years past. The demand is for good
farm lands improved or unimproved.
And at an increase of from ten to If
teen dollars an acre more than the
same lands could be had for couple
of years ago.
The rise in the price Of every kind
Of produce grown on these Western
lands, in some cases to double and IN
others to treble the price prevailing be-
fore 1914, have attracted and are at
tracing in ever-increasing proportions
the men who are anxious to invest
their money, and apply their energies
In the production of wheat for which
the allied nations are calling with
voices which grow louder and more
anxious as the months roll on, and the
end Of the war still seems distant.
Beef, and more especially bacon, are
required in ever greater quantities,
and the price Of all these things has
soard, until 1t is not a question OF
what shall we produce, but how mucn
can we produce. Even should this
world calamity be brought to a close
in six months from now, 1t will be
years before normal pre-war prices
prevail, and meantime self-interest II
not patriotism is turning the minds OF
thousands back to the land. The IN
evitable consequence has been the rise
in values Of land, especially wheat
land.
The Calgary Herald, commenting on
these conditions says:
"From inquiries made from leading
dealers in farming and ranching prop
critics, and from the information gath
cred in other ways, it is known that
the value of all land-wheat land,
mixed farming properties, and even
good grazing land-has risen in the
last two years 40 per cent. Wheat
lands in some districts have practical
ly doubled In price. One dealer in
farm lands recently sold three sections
for $40 an acre. one extra good quar-
ter. went as high as 500, and another
brought 500. These are, Of course,
large prices, but that they will be
equaled or even surpassed in the near
future is beyond question. There is a
feature about this rush to the land
from which the most solid hope can
be drawn for the success of the move

House of Lords Dies Hard.

1t Is now about sixty years since
Thomas Darlington Macaulay wrote
again and again that the house of
lords seemed to be on it's last legs. He
used a longer and more dignif1ed
phrase, but that is its substance when
translated into the vernacular. APP
parently his conviction then was as
strong as that Of any of those who
now hope for the abolition of the
lords. To be sure, the circumstances
have changed greatly, but the lords die
so hard that this little historical rem
tniscence is not without its value now
that the same cry is heard again and
when some think the contamination
near at hand.

more regular.
Crops are being harvested, especial
~ in Southern Alberta, which would
have seemed impossible to the old-time
farmer, with his old-fashioned ideas
of breaking and seeding. And at the
price now set by the government for
wheat and which possibly may be in
creased during the coming season, the
return to the practical skilled agricul-
turist must necessarily be very large.
