The Dreamer Who Saved
the World
International Sunday School Lesson for December
Is Joseph Sold by His Brothers
- Genesis 37:18-28
BY WILLIAM It. ELLIS

There is a choke in our throats, q
mist before our eyes, thrill in
every fiber of our being, as we real
ize, in waves and surges of feeling,
that the war is over and that the
world has been saved. Even the
thoughtless and the irreverent Gf
there be any such left) cry Thank
God" Now we have come to
point where we can look back and
see the Providence which has ruled
in all the strange and tragic events
of these dark years. Already there
emerge above the darkness and tha
ruin dim foregleams of the pur-
poses of the Supreme Ruler who
makes the wrath of man to praise
him, and who has declared My
ways are not your ways, nor my
Thoughts your thoughts" None is
SO infidel as not 70 believe that
throughout the war the Almighty
has been doing business with man
kind.
AS if to re-enforce this great
truth of an overruling Providence,
which lies like the light of sunrise
behind the darkness of the worlds
night. millions are this week call
ed to consider the same theme as
il is set forth in the romantic story
Of Joseph, the dreamer whose
dreams came true. The closing
chapters of the book of Genesis,
Harrisburg telegraph. [volume] (Harrisburg, Pa.) 1879-1948, 1918-11-29

which began with the story of Crea-
tton, are devoted to the affairs of
this one man. Does that seem like
an mcongruous descent from the
great and sublime to the small and
the unimportant? Far from it. The
providence of God is as truly con-
eerned in the affairs of one life as
in the establishment of the uni
verse. Reverently it may be said,
that the Greater himself reveals
his height in ordering the life of
mortal, into whose frame he has
breathed a free ard sovereign spirit,
All the final aims of God have to
do with mans life. 1t is for the
sake of humanity, in whose estate
God himself has chosen to find his
highest glory, that the worlds were
brought into being; and it is for the
sake of humanity that he has over
turned nations and systems and the
ancient order in a world cataclysm.
AS we follow the course of Joseph
we find ourselves in a plain path
of divine leading.
BY Way we knew Not
Bad men and good men are both
tools in the hands of God The mad
and ruthless ambitions of a German
kaiser: and the lofty, altruistic pur-
poses of an American president,
alike serve the benign purposes of
an overruling Providence. Joseph,
Harrisburg telegraph. [volume] (Harrisburg, Pa.) 1879-1948, 1918-11-29

the less said about them the bet
ter. Earlier chapters of the Bible
story reveal their character. They.
may seem poor stuff upon which to
build a nation of promise. This
proportion of ten to one is sug-
gestive. Is it not about the normal
proportion between the rough
necks" and the "highbrows" For
hundred thousand "Atlantic Month
lies" there are a million "Cosmopoli-
tans" sold. For one person who
reads 1bsen there are ten, plus,
who read George Ade. For one
man at the prayer meeting there
are ten or more at the prize-ight
or the musical comedy. Neverthe-
less as Joseph should have been on
terms of real friendship with his
brothers so the church folk should
be comradely with the nonchurch
crowd. Let us hope that the shock
of the war will shake pious folk out
of the bad and priggish habit of
consorting only with pious folk. A
real indictment lies at the door of
religious people that they do not
know, understand or sympathize
with their neigh bors who are not
religious. The church has too often
allowed herself to drift off into n
backwash of life, apart from the
main currents. Joseph should have
been an influence in shaping the life
of his ten brothers; and the church
should be a power, now more than
ever, in changing the minds and
motives of the men outside her
membership. The world is not
safe unless it is impelled and guild
ed by the great convictions. War
has been a schoolmaster to show
the church how to lift the generality
Of mankind up to new and nobler
levels. In this day of democracy,
the leaven belongs in the lump.
Joseph's story bristles with truth
for our times. But it's main mes
sage is one with the wars great
lesson, which is that God rules, and,
in spite o. all, gets his will done
among men. When he needs a man
in Egypt, he may have to send him
by the slave route; but that road led
to the highest place in the world.
We know that we are in Gods
hands, and on the way to somewhere
and something good, we know not
what, but God is in control. His
purposes are better than our plans.
Our path, as during the past four
years, may run down through the
Dark Valley; but it leads to Gods
good goal.

On the top floor of 641 Washington
street, New York city, is one of the
most interesting kitchens in the world,
presided over by Chinese woman
doctor. She recently spent six months
In trip to China to study and ana
lyze the soy bean. DR.. Yamei Kin, for
that is her name, says that the protein
contained in the soy bean is equal to
that Of meat and rs Of great vaide to
persons who cannot safely eat meat
1t Is replacer of meat-a sort of
vegetable cheese. 1t forms no acid. II
Is an alkaline form Of protein. Com
b.ned with hash or any form of meat
ieavings 1t forms wonderful food
for diabetes, as the curd contains no
starch. When you eat "chop suey,"
"chow mein" and other dishes in CHI
nese restaurants, the salty black
sauce served with the food is made
from soy beans. It Is by no means
simply condiment 1t is as nutri-
.tiOus as meat gravy. Excellent
cheese can also be made from them.
Doctor Kin says that she can make,
roQuefort cheese that smells and
looks like the real thing. She says
further that as the public becomes edu-
Gated to the obliging ''soy" 1t will take
its place at the head Of the process
sion of American products. In all the
world there is not more misunder-.
stood vegetable than the soy beam,

SEEKS SERVICE FOR REVENGE
Harold Bowen Saw "Red" When He
Heard Brother Had Been Wound
ed In France.

Sioux Falls, S. D.--When Harold
Bowen of Hartford, 8. D., was advised
that his brother, William Bowen, had
been wounded while on the firing line
in France with other American troops,
he Immediately commenced to see
red" and fastened to Sioux Falls in
an effort to be assigned to early serv-
ice in France so he could avenge the
wOunding of his brother.
Harold Bowen was a selective draft
man, and stood well down the list. He
appealed to the local exemption board
in Sioux Falls and begged to be accept
ed into the service at once, out of his
turn, in order that he could get to
France with the least possible delay so
he could kill few Germans.
His plea was accepted by the men,
bers of the exemption board, and
young Bowen departed to undergo
training at Camp Lewis, WASH. pre-
liminary to being sent to the battle
line in France.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agricultural
Substitutions for the horse have so
far failed to diminish his number on
farms, where he is mostly bred. The
railroad did not verify the common
prophecy of the horses gloomy future
nearly century ago, and many years
elapsed before the heyday Of the BIZ
cycle arrived with it's expected menace
to the horse. That machine Of pleas
ure and toll diverted attention from
the first real antagonist of the horse,
the electric street railway, and this
ice could not have been developed by
horses to the extent that 1t has been
carried by electricity. yet there was an
enormous displacement of horses
when they no longer pulled street cars.
1t Is roughly estimated that 100000
horses would be required to move the
street cars now in city service, and
that farmers would need to keep a
stock of perhaps 100000 horses to
produce this supply. Yet, horses kept
on increasing.
Apparently the most effective foe of
the horse has appeared in the last ten
years in the motor vehicle, although
Its Importance in this respect is pop
ularly exaggerated. According to sta
tistics collected by the United States
department of agriculture, the total
state registrations of motor cars were
$4,000 in 1905, about 100000 in 1910,
over 100000 in 1912, over 100000 in
1915, and 1872, 996 in 1916.
Automobiles do not merely displace
horses but many are used by men in
occupations dependent on either horses
or automobiles for personal movement,
such as real estate agents, builders,
and some merchants and manufactu-
rers, and there Is also the large public
automobile passenger service in cities
and, again, the large number Of auto
mobiles owned by farmers in place Of
driving horses.
With motor trucks and commercial
vehicles the case is different. Here is
clearly complete substitution of fuel
power for horse power. 1t is the Opin-
ion that every motor truck on the av-
erage displaces three horses. The state
records often merge the registration
of motor trucks and commercial We
hicles with that Of automobiles, but,
to the extent that the separation Is
made, 1t is known that 1862 Of the
former were registered in 1916. Prob
ably the displacement of horses by mo-

represents a stock on farms Of few
million horses, and to these must be
added the stock eliminated by the au-
tomobile.
Last of all, the farm tractor has ap-
peared, with conjectural possibilities,
but as yet with no perceptible dis
placement of horses.
Unusual and large demands for
horses for war purposes have been
made since the autumn of 1914. Dur
ing the ten years preceding, from 49,
900 to 10000 horses were exported an
nually, while the imports were from
5000 to $4,000, so that the net exports
were no appreciate draft on domes-
tic production. In the first year Of the
war 2S9340 horses were exported, in
the second 357, 553, and In the third
278,674 horses, and within less than a
year the needs Of the army Of this
country have called for large number
of horses.
Notwithstanding the various forces
that have been working against in
crease of horses at their breeding
places. or rather, in common expecta-
ton, to reduce their numbers at a
strong rate, the fact is that horses on
farms increased at the average yearly
rate of $4,000 since 1900 and more
than that since 1910, or 216,00O per
year. Per capita of the population.
farm horses tended to increase from
0.19 Of l horse in 1850 to O.24 in 1890
and 1900, after which the decline has
been to 0.20h In 1918, or still above
1850. At the same time, however, by
means Of machinery the farm horse
has constantly gained as producer.
Strange though 1t may seem. the av-
erage price Of a horse at the farm,
all ages and conditions included. is
less than it was four years ago, and
even eight years ago. Since 1897
horse prices at the farm for January
had risen from $31.51 to $111.46 by
1911. the highest average in the de-
partment of agrlculture's record Of So
years. but decline followed to $1O1 60
In 1916 and then gain to $1042S In
1918. apparently caused by the war.
