World Conquest, From Jerusalem
Stand dpoint
Missions."-Acts 14S-2O.
By WILLIAM T. ELLIS

Cynics say, "If you want to keep
your religion, stay away from Jeru-
salem" The observation is as un-
true as most cynicisms. To a super
ficial view. there is much that is re-
pellent in the professionalism and
bigotry and superstition and strife
which are outstanding Characters
tics of the formal religion to be
found to-day in the holy city. At
first glance, as one sees the anemic
Jews, with their long cloaks and fiat
hats and ostentatious curls hanging
down in front of their ears, and the
ubiquitous monks and priests of the
warning Christian sects, from the
frowsy Abyssinians to the stately
AuguStinians, the feeling is that
here the husk of religion persists
without its vital kernel. There
seems to be more ecclesiasticism
than spirituality in Jerusalem to-
day.
Nevertheless, deep devotion also
has it's home here. These poor
Jews, who make an American smile
at first, have many of them a real
passion for their God and their peo-
pie. Most of the weekly wailing at
the stones of Solomon's Temple is as
much a matter of rote as the repe-
tition Of the creed in Christian
churches; but more than little of
it from the heart, else I am no read
er of faces. Never, at religious
gathering in America, have 1 seen
manifest more spiritual hunger and
ardor and joy than was written on
the countenances of the marooned
Russian pilgrims when their church
was reopened.
Students and saints beyond num-
ber have been moved to their depths
in this city, hallowed by its asso-
Citations with prophets and with the
Messiah himself. Yesterday, in the
Mosque of Omar, on the site of the
Jewish Temple, I felt myself in
strange unity with the reverent
Moslems who were there. praying
to the God of Abraham and David
and Christ. Tides of feeling sweep
through ones soul as he treads the
ways where once walked Jesus and
his disciples; and as he muses. in
Gethsemane or climbs the slope of
the Mount of Olives.
The Place of Beginnings.
This old city, which within forty
years has become greater without
its walls than within, is a place of
beginnings. The currents of pill
grimage which has swept back
here throughout the centuries all
took their rise on this spot. From
all the world has returned a fulfil
ment of the departing word of
Jesus-he assembled from the very
mountain where, a few nights ago,
stood and beheld the city bathed
in moonlight-"Ye shall be my wit
nesses, both in Jerusalem and in all
Judea, and in Samaria, and unto the
uttermost part of the earth" The
spread of the Good News. begin
ming at Jerusalem" has now encom-
passed the earth
All about this land are ruins,
some of them older than the history
of the Children of Israel. What
makes Jerusalem different, a defer
of time, a survivor of the centuries,
and the sentimental center of the
world? Here the Word was spoken,
lived and vindicated. Jerusalem is
an undying memorial to the Law
and the Gospel. London, Rome,
Paris, New York have no such hold
upon the affection of humanity as
the malodorous, messy. unsanitary.

ALMOST A SHADOW, AFRAID
TO EAT

my son-in-law was so bad from
stomach trouble that he was re-
duced to almost a shadow and was
afraid to eat anything, as all food
caused bloating of gas which pressed

much. Our druggist persuaded him
to try Mayr's Wonderful Remedy

WILSON'S WORDS
CLEAR UP DOUBT
CALIFORNIA THROWS ovER ITS
LEADER, JOHNSON, AND
RALLIES TO LEAGUE.
WEST GIVES HIM OVATION
All Doubtful Features Of Pact Are
Explained Away BY President, and
Former Doubters Hasten to Give
Him Their Support.

(By Independent News Bureau. form

Aboard President Wilson's Special
Train-A continuous ovation along the
Pacific coast and then on his eastward
way back toward the capital was given
to President Wilson as he came
toward the end OF his month daylong
speaking tour in behalf Of the League
of Nations. California, particularly
the delightful city of Los Angeles. went
wild in its enthusiasm for him and his
advocacy Of the League, and 1t was
in that state, perhaps, that he did his
most successful missionary work.
Hiram Johnson, CALIFORNIA; former
governor, now her United States sena-
tor, and considered by her as the most
likely Republican candidate for the
presidency in 1920, had before the ar.
rival of President Wilson, convinced
a great number of citizens that the
League as ut present formulated was
not a good thing He had told them
that the United States, because of 1t,
would be drawn into every petty
European quarrel; he argued that we
would lose our sovereignty by joining
with the European nations. He had
blamed the president for asserting to
the possession by Japan Of the PENN
sula of Shan Tung in China.

himself was making In opposition to
the League and so powerful was the
volume OF public opinion which reach

Shan Tung question, because OF the

ly exists along the Pacific coast was
the most serious which The president

people that he had been powerless to

It to Japan for entering the war and
remaining in it. That treaty had to
be carried out. anyway 1t was not
China that was losing Shan Tung. but
Germany, which had seized the terri
tory from China In 1898 and held it
ever since. Japan had promised, the
president explained, to return Shan
Tung as soon as the peace treaty was
ratified and it was only through the
ratification of the treaty with the
League of Nations inclusion, that
China could ever expect to get her
former property back. And she surely
would get it back, he declared, through
the ratification of the League. There

such as the sending OF troops to any
part of the world to maintain or re-
store order could be taken by the
Council of the League without unani-
nous vote OF the council members,
therefore our vote could at once mega
tive any such proposition as sending
our soldiers where we did not want
them sent. Besides, Mr.. Wilson argued,
"If you have to Quench fire in Cali
fornia you don't send for the fire de-
partment Of Utah" But, he argued.
there probably never will be another

LISTEN TO AMBITIONS VOICE
Desirable Companion May Fail to Call
Again If She Is Not Accorded
Recognition.

Most young people seem to think
that ambition is quality that is born
In one and which cannot be materially
changed, but the greatest ambition may
be materially injured in many differ
ent ways. The habit of procrastina-
ton, of postponing, the habit of pick
Ing out of the easier tasks and putting
off the difficult ones, for example, will
very seriously impair the ambition.
Whatever affects the ideals affects the
ambition.
Ambition often begins very early to
knock for recognition. If we do not
heed its voice, If it gets no encourage
ment after appealing to us for years.
1t gradually ceases to trouble us, be-
cause, like any other unused quality or
function. it deteriorates or disappears
when unused.
Be careful how you discourage or
refuse to heed that inner voice which
commands you to go forward, for If
you do it win become less and less in
sistent until finally it will cease to
prod you, and when ambition is dead
deterioration has set in.-From "Ambi-
ton and Success" by Orison SWEET
