road or street is on the State Trunk
. Highway System. Each trunk high
, way has different number and the
marking is TO enable the traveller to
pick up a number and easily follow
the especial state trunk highway or
highways which takes him to his
destination.
The State Trunk Highway System
comprises 5000 miles of road. Stretches
of varying length are maintained by
IA patrOlman, there being nearly 500
of these patrolmen now working in
maintaining the system. Each county
is responsible for the maintenance of
the system within its limits but the
cost OF this maintenance, up to a
certain amount per mile, is repaid
the county by the state ont of the
proceeds of automobile license fees.
Already the system of main roads
of Wisconsin is much improved by
this maintenance and as the patrol
men gain experience and the whole
organization gets in working order
the results are bound to be wonder
fully marked.
For the convenience of the travel
ing public the legislature provided
that map of the Trurk Highway
System should be published showing
the same numbers on the various
roads that are displayed on the
telephone poles along them. With
this map anyone desiring to get be
tween any two points in Wisconsin
can readily select his route and read
lily follow 1t OH the road itself These
maps may be had from local station
ers or will be sent by Superintendent
of Public Property. Madison, Wiscon-
sin, on receipt of ten cents Stamps
not accepted.

men need special stimulation for
1 special tasks, and for the purpose of
getting out of life what there is in it
The question is, chow shall l get
this help?"
The world has offered variety
of ways. AS suggested in the text,
one of the ways that men use is
Intoxicating liquor. This makes them
forget and stimulates the imagination
and temporarily at least, makes the
subject have good time.
Another way is morphine. This
gives sweet dreams and visions. An
unusual exhileration. If that were all
that there was to it, it would not
seem so bad
Another stimulus which the world
offers is gambling. The gambler sits
all night long gambling never grow
ing weary as the game progresses.
He is lifted above himself.
Another stimulus used is "the
movie" We have come to the day
when we have "movie fiends" just
the same as morphine fiends'
People who get all of their thrills
from the movie and spend large por-
tions of their afternoons and even
ings in this way
Another stimulus is the dance hall

or room. Young people are often
heard to say that they can dance all
night and never get tired. Of course
they are tired later but they get the
stimulation.
/ have not taken the trouble to
segregate what may be good or bad
in the things suggested above but
am only pointing out that the world
has been using all kinds Of methods
to get out of dead level existence
Now the suggestion of Paul is that
the finest way of all is to be filled
with the Spirit of God. One might
conclude then that if one used any of
the things above suggested to stimu-
late he must be sure that it does not
prevent that best of all stimulants,
"being filled with Gods Spirit
After all there is nothing finer than
to be in harmony with the God who
inspires passion for humanity One
who makes US go farther than just
having a good time. If one will al
low the spirit of God to rule in his
life, he is bound to have the vision
which makes the pathway of life
radiant with glory.

to the anguish of the world, but it ha.

! Philip said: SHOW us the Father
Master, and we will be satisfied" The
Master who was able to give unto hin
permanent peace was by his side, but he
was blind to his real need, as the world
today is blind to the source of real COM
fort and peace. The only way possible
for Philip at that time, or any one in
the present day to see the Father is
through the Master, Jesus the Son of
the living God
| The mistreatment and suffering of
women and children in Belgium and
| France, the blood-shed and death of our
noble men on the battlefront; yea, the
misery and anxiety during the Flu" cpl
demic in our own borders is all the
result of SIN. Millions of the innocent
are suffering untold misery because of
the sin of the guilty. The only way to
get permanent relief from the anguish
of the world is to let Him who came to
save us from our sins reign in our hearts
Individually and nationally. Thou shall
call His name Jesus, for it is He who
shall save His people from their sins"
The greatest need of the world today
is not food nor clothing, it is not the
doctor nor the nurse but it is the saving
power of the gospel of Jesus Christ. We
are willing and ready, if need be, to give
our all for our country, freedom and
democracyl;. so let us with the same de-
termined will present our bodies living
sacrifice for the church and the Son Of
the living. God
Though. you are hungry and cold, you
may have real peace by letting Jesus be
the king of your heart You may be
sick, wounded bleeding and dying and
yet possess lasting peace if Jesus is the
ruler of your life Even if you are
standing by the grave of a loved one, or
reading the shocking message of the
sacrifice, even of the death, of your son
or husband, you may be comforted if
you are obedient to Him who said: "Let !
not your hearts be troubled, you be-
lieved in God believe also in me-" 1t |
makes no difference whether you are
from hunger and cold, or
and bleeding on the battlefield |
or heart broken as you see your friends |
and loved ones sacrificed for our coun-
try's good, the only assurance that we
have of salvation from the anguish of
the world and the enjoyment of lasting
peace is a complete surrender to and a
full acceptance of Him who gave His
life to save us from SIN.

The New Solvent.

After the war, what? The ques-
ton is persistent. We have been
watching results of the war keenly
for three or four years. We have wit
messed nations accomplishing the i'm
possible until we have ceased to think
of anything as impossible And thru
all the mighty upheavings the solvent
of thousand problems has been the
same, the resurgence of human symp-
athy, rediscovery of the worth of
man. Under the pressure Of the wars
bitterness and the wars threat, men
have learned sympathy. If the war
has torn the heart of the race, it has
also warmed and enlarged it. 1t has
wrung from it this great confession,
that more important than national
and industrial progress, more import
ant than all elaborate schemes of
statesmen and diplomats and high fin
anciers, is human life itself. Today
man says to man, because you I'M
derstand me and | have an interest
of fellowship in you, we establish a
relationship which no system shall
destroy. | don't care whether you
are millionaire or a laborer, a
or a Swede, an aristocrat
or peasant; you are first man like
myself. Our relation is governed by
he bigness of your manhood. If you
are weak, am your servant; if you
ire strong, you are mine. Let US
'e as man to man with mighty bond
# sympathy between US.
So says the world today; and ere
We know it a solvent for all our bitter
problems is discovered, a new basis
f international dealing, new form
la with which capital and labor may
1eet and greet. And this, adds the
heologian, is surely the coming of
he Son of Man.

Tough and spent the time at Detroit.
He wrote to his sister telling of his
trip and enclosed letter from the
mother of a soldier with whom he
visited at Detroit. The other son,
Henry, is in the Puget Sound navy
yard at Camp Perry, and has writ
ten interestingly of his work there.
Mr.. FELTON,, the well known mill man,

Detroit, Mich, Oct. 22.-Dear
Mother: We left Boston Monday
night, October IA, on the. eleven fiji
teen train, on ten-day furlough to
Detroit. We arrived here Tuesday
evening week ago and they have
certainly treated me fine here at my
friends home. We can't go out on
the streets here without someone in
car asking US if we want ride.
The influenza is pretty bad here.
Everything was closed up. Saturday
night at twelve o'clock I think
things will be opened up again at
Boston when we get back there L
hope so anyway. The epidemic was
pretty nearly stamped out when we
left and they were figuring on open
ing things up again. We have been
having fine weather while we have
been here. | sure have made good on
the eats since l came. Believe me
this home cooking sure goes good
after the ship chow for over year
without change. Believe me ten
days freedom is certainly great De-
troit is a fine little town. There is
an awful lot of factories here and
everything you see is business. There
are automobiles galore. We were out
to the eagle plant where Ford is MAX |
ing sub chasers for Uncle Sam. Then
there are auto factories, factories for
aeroplanes, testing house for aero
planes, etc. Everything is business
and that business is for winning the
war. Nearly all the girls one meets /
here are doing something. They are
restless if they aren't doing some
kind of work. have met some awful
nice people since l have been here.
A girl entertained us last night. She
S the only child and she wants to
know someone in the service She
says: ooh, if l only had brother in
he service She is doing office
work in town. She and her friend
md her parents certainly showed US
fine time. They had eats. They
wanted us to eat more, more. Believe
ne she could certainly male a piano
ak and she was some singer too.

read and books must be provided.
