INVEST Stacker
PENNIES IN WAR
STAMPS OF u. S.

Hartford, Jan. 12-"Rring out the
Stacker pennies; invest them in thrift
stamps and war savings certificates"
is the slogan adopted for the Con-
necticut War Savings Committee for
a movement which, it is hoped, will
result in adding many thousands of
dollars to Connecticut's allotment of
26,000,000 in the national war saw
ings campaign.
Local bankers estimated that there
are at least 100000 pennies tied up
in children's banks throughout the
state. These lie idle from one years
end to another. and bear no interest.
Bankers admit that much money is
withdrawn from circulation in tho
shape of pennies every year which, if
diverted into other channels, would
have a decidedly beneficial effect on
the finances of Connecticut.
At the present time there is in evil
dence a shortage of pennies that
threatens to result seriously unless
idle coppers are again put into circu-
lation. Bankers hold the six-cent
trolley fare partly responsible, but
| but they also declare that the hoard
| ing of pennies by children is also
partly responsible for the scarcity OF
of these coins.
War saving committee chairmer
throughout Connecticut will soon be
| asked to instruct children to take
their pennies to the post offices and
| banks, where they may be exchanged
| for thrift stamps and war saving.

MORE THAN ONE
BILLION A YEAR
FOR OVERHEATING

That the average weight of a we'll
fed population is above the bodily
weight best suited to health is dis
tinctly borne out by the mortality
investigations of the insurance COM
panies. When men are divided into
groups according to their weight the
lowest mortality is not found in the
groups of average weights but among
those men who are from Is to 80
pounds underweight This is not so
apparent among young men, but after
40 the difference becomes more mark
ed and among men of so and upwards
the death rate is 10 per cent. higher
higher for those of average weight
than for those whose weights fall into
the group which are Is to 80 pounds
underweight.
The injury to health and vitality
increases with the amount of excess
weight carried This increased NOR
tally from overweight is greatest in
the middlep eriod of life. Men from
40 to As years of age who weigh IS
pounds to 80 pounds above the aver
age have mortality just about twice
as great as men of the same age who
are from Is to 80 pounds under the
average weights-that is, whose bod
lily frame carries no accumulated fat.
Thus we see that on the average
the well-fed American carries at least
20 per cent. more avoirdupois than
physical efficiency demands; and that
an estimate of a 10 per cent. food
waste from over eating is very con-
sentative. indeed. The luxury of be-
ing well fed costs our nation more
than a billion dollars a year in food
waste, while its cost in lives cut
short and in impaired working eff
cheney is loss which if it could be
measured in dollars would amount
to several billions per annum.-From

TODAY'S ANNIVERSARY

With the United States at the pres
ent time engaged in building hundreds
of ships with which to carry on the
war, it is interesting to recall that the
first American built vessel to make a
deep-sea voyage, the Trial was
launched 276 years ago today, Jan. r..
1912 The builder was Captain Thos
Coytmore, who was also the first COM
mander of the vessel. The Trial was
constructed at Boston, and was of 165
tons burden. Few people would care
to trust their lives to such craft for
even a short voyage in these days, but
the Trial was considered a good shi,
in those days and brought rich re-
turn to her owners.

ANSWER TO
QUESTION mo. /.
Warsaw Mo. r, 8, Box 2b

Feb. Is, 1918.
Mr., Rev. L. s. Garrett, Ed.
Of the WORLDS CREssET, dear
Bro. in Christ, will you please
explain through the CREssET
where Cain got his wife. and
who she was. For the question
has been asked in our church
hire and the minister did not
give any answer on the subject
at all.
And l am asking you to give
me an answer through your pa.
per for I believe If anyone can
give the true answer it is you,
for l find everything just as you
say true. Bible truths.
So l will look for an answer
soon in your paper, I am as
ever your sister in Christ.
Mrs. Fanny Swerngin.
The question is asked many
times; WHO WAS CAIN S wIFE?"
And wa learn that there is many
answers, Some say Cain took
his sister with him aad she be.
came his wife, Some say that
Cain married a Gorilla. others
say an Ape etc, The most satis'
factory answer to the majority
is that be took his sister to wife.
But when we look deep down in
10 the eternal truths OF G)d's
word. we learp that at the the
time of Gains banishment be
die not have a sister. Now the
greatest mystery to US IL, why
great and good men can be full
of nothing, running over and
satisfied, Looking at the chrono!.
ogy given in the Bible by man we
notice, and all readers ought to
see 1t, that in the marginal
readings at the top of the space
given in connection with the
first chaptar of Gensi>; you can
see this 4OO4 years before Christ
We see this same time given in
connection With the second ch.
we then turn to the fourth and
fifth chapter: and we see there
the same 4004 years, this looks
so unreasonable to US that we
cannot help but point out
the unreasonableness of it to
our readers: just to think that
inside of one year, God created
the heaven and The earth: and
created a can male and female
and then after the seventh day
Gods day of rest tHe formed a
man from ths dust of the ground
and then placed him in the
garden. and made him an help
meet. And to this time is added
Cain and Abel's birth.
And this is not yet the wors!
feature, for We see that in this
same lenth of time they incl nd
ed the groweth OF Cain anc
Abel from birth to manhood
This would be. according tt
all knowledge an imp0ssibjlity
except in the case of God Great
ing the man on the sixth day OF
forming the man after The
seventh day. But as we under
stand, after this work was
accomplished BY the Lord
Then nature had to take it'
place, And more than one oI
two years either had to pass
before man could mature int;
manhood or in other words
come to years OF maturity: witt
those facts before US as simple
as they seam to be.
They are facts, that complete

ed into the land Of Nod, he did
not have a sister, This reason
comes from a biblical standpoint
For Cain and Abel we're born
and we're brothers and grew up
into manhood and Gin killed
his brother Abel and we're ban
ished into the land OF Nod be'
fore Eve had another child and
after Cain was banished' Seth
was born. As we learn in this
anguage. ..,
And Adam knew his wife
again; and she, bare a son. and
called his name Seth: For God,
said she hath aqo,intoa mo
another seed instead "f Al, |,
whom Cain slew tGen 4-25 J
Again looking at the margin,
ais reading we see that mans
chronology p'aces the birth ~
Seth in the "a me year that Cain
killed Abel. this good reason and
good sound sonse will teach anv
nne. could not be true,
And we say again that the
three sons could not be born in
the same year of 365 days and
grow into manhood and raise
lucks and grain or vegetables
and bring an Offering to the Lord
And In the same time children
horn to Seth, Oh how foolish 1t
is to follow such an idea of
man when God tells you that
Adam was q hundred and thirty
years uld when Seth Wa - born.
Please read:
And Adam lived an hundred
and thirty ,years and begat a
son iu his own likeness after his
image; and called bis name Seth
Gen. 5-3
Now in the 25 v. chap. yon
see the language used in this
form that Cain had killed Abel
already before Seth was horn
and that Seth was Tie next born
after Cain and Abel. No room
for daughters or sisters until
after Cain had been banished
and Seth was born. Then there
we're daughters born, S0 Cain
could not have taken his sister
as a wife with him having no
sister to take. Hence we must
look in another direction to find
where Cain got his wife. There
fore seeing bv the word of God
as recorded in the lat. ch, OF Gen.
that God created man Male and
Female, gave him dominion over
all the earth and said to him be
fruitful multiply and replenist
the earth.
This leaves a thousand years
i of our time before God formed
the man Adam. We can plainly
see where Cain got his wife
when he was banished out into
the land OF Nod; be had this
created people to select bis wife
from whom God had told to bt
fruitful and IN lltiply which they
were doing May the reader con
, prehend how beautiful all these
subjects link together under tht
