LANSING SPEAKS
TO PRESBYTERIANS
(By Associated rress)

~
Lake Geneva, Wis, Sept. 8
ITO bring men back to the spirit
ual standard, to make Christ,s
principles a vital and impelling
force in the reconstruction of
society, and to teach men to
think true and live true, is the
mighty task to which the church
is called is the. opinion OF Secre-
tary Of State Robert. Lansing,
expressed in an address at the
New Era Conference, of the Pres
byterian church, now being held
here to lay out five year pro-
gram for the organization, cover
ing the new problems and condi-
tons in which the world finds
itself following the great war,
"This is a time of remodeling
and reconstructing," Secretary
Lansing said. "Out of the ruins
of the old world order shattered
by the war there must be erected
a new structure based upon
sounder principles than those
which were the foundation of the
old. New ideas and new con-
ceptions of society's obligations
to the individual have been re-
leased, and there is manifested
radicalism in their advocacy
which threatens the disruption of
the present social order.
"The peril lines in the exalta-
ton of physical might, the false
doctrine of the right to do be-
cause of the power to do and as
sumption of selfish desire as to
the ultimate motive of human
action. The world can only meet
this grave situation by renewing
and Strengthening its. spiritual
life, by turning away from mater
ialism and implanting in mems
souls those. great fundamental
principles which Christ taught
and which He manifested His life
on earth" I.
The character of the New Era
the Secretary of State added will
depend upon whether materialism
or spirituality denominates man
kind and cit is for living, ag-
gressive Christianity to win in
this supreme conflict and to van
quish which now seem so potent
in the world"

Sheep Killing Dogs Cause
$500 Damage In Mason

Dogs got into the sheep on the
farm of Mike Slattery in Mason
county and killed over 20. The
same dogs got into the flock on
the farm of John R. Downing and
killed five. They probably would
have killed more had Mr.. Down
ing not moved the sheep to an
other farm. These same dogs
visited that section again and
finding no sheep they got into
turkey focks in that district and
killed several. Neighbors decid-
ed they would lay for the dogs.
They were trailed to Maysville.
Deputy Sheriff Frank Armstrong
and Policeman Dudley Bloomhuff
were notified that the dogs had
been run into the Postal Tele-
graph office. The officers took
charge of the dogs and killed
them. 1t is reckoned that these
two dogs have cost Mason coun-
ty at least $500 in sheep claims.

ARGENTINA CORN PACT
HAS BEARISH INFLUENCE

CHICAGO, February S.--Announce-
ment of the signing of 100000, 900
grain pact between Argentina and the
entente allies has had an important
bearish influence this week on the
corn market here. and so too has a
decided falling-off in domestic feeding
demand Compared with a week ago
corn prices this morning were is to
5M down. oats were half-cent lower
to II advance. and provisions varying
from 81 cents decline to a rise of
80 cents.
Among the chief depressing aspects
of the Argentine agreement was the
absence of any specification as to
minimum prices. Weakness which re-
suited in the corn market here was
only Offset in part by later advices
asserting that the Argentine govern
ment would prohibit export. unless at
a much higher level than current quo .
tations and that Industrial troubles
in Argentina were greatly curtailing
shipments from that country. On the
other hand tenacity of domestic pro-
ducers in refusing to let go of hold
ings was more than counterbaIanced
by evidence that feeding require
ments had shrunk and by the begin
ming of a movement at Washington
to arrange government price basis
for commodities.
Speculative buying gave relative
steadiness to oats.
Immense export business took viz
tuaify all the weakness out of pro-
visions. 1t was said stocks were be-
coming rapidly absorbed
