POINTS FOR WORLD WINNING

At the Worlds Sunday School asso-
citation mass meeting at Buffalo the
following were stated as cardinal con
siderations for the new world Sunday
school program.
|. We can never make the world
safe for democracy until we have
reached the 4O0,0OO,OOO of the worlds
children and have trained them in the
principles of the Bible.
2. The organization to accomplish
the task of reaching this vast consti-
tucncy is the World Sunday School as
sociation, with membership of 49,
600, ,000-3, 100000 workers in 100000
Sunday schools.
3. This association can only func-
tion in this great task AS the Ameri-
can Sunday schools shall make it pos
sible both with money and workers.
A. This great objective can be real
ized in any generation when we shall
address ourselves adequately to the
task.
5. 1t can be done in this generation
if we shall will to do 80.
6. Every school in America is a
unit in this great association task.
7. This great work can not be ac-
complished upon the present budget
Of the association, which is $42,0000
per annum.
8. Any serious attempt at our task
would require a budget of at least
S250,000 per annum.
8. We shall need to supply 100
trained native secretaries and mission
aries for the Sunday school task in
the worlds great centers outside Of
America during the next few years.
10. The Tokyo convention, which
will fall within one year from the con-
clusion of peace, should be the occas-
ion for the launching Of this great
program and for the sounding Of the
note Of the world unity and brother
hood throughout Sunday schools which
will be heard the world around.
Mr.. Moody has said, "1f we can win
one generation we have put the devil
out of business" and DR.. f. B. Meyer
has shown the way. "If the world is
ever to be saved it must be saved
through its childhood"

to his mother. Grief over her death
is said to have hastencd his own.
Added to his family loss was the
realization that his political power rap
idly was passing. Senator Morton was
"wet" His district because dry. And
Morton wa sdefeated at the polls last
year as were many other politicians
who followed the chimer of booze to
the end. When he made frequent trip
to Jefferson City last winter to sit in
the hotel lobbies and talk to his form
er Legislative colleagues he discover
ed that his absence had passed almost
unnoticcd. That wounded his pride.
The value of Miss Miliigan's share
in the Morton estate has not been
determined. 4 bcquest of So 800 was

cousin, living at Monett, Mr.. The bal

vance Of a few thousand dollars in
order to secure the entire fortune.
Notice has reached the department
that one Of the latest attempts to
work the scheme is in Chicago. An
aged couple there received COM
munication informing them that if
they sent $4,000 to Madrid, Spain, to
assist in arranging for the release of
the prisoner, the rest fthe fortune"
would be theirs.
The state department warns all
those who might be made victims of
this hoax, and the public is warned to
place no credence in any letter of this
sort.

gan had been engaged several years.
The wedding date was put off from
time to time. They were to have been
married last fall. But in October the
senator's mother died Then the date
was set for last summer or this fall,
and the senator died.
Morton was So years old. Miss Mil
ligan is SO.
The devotion of Senator Morton to
his mother was one Of the bright spots
in a political career which was much
the same as that of the average "old
guard" machine politician. Some say
that the senator did not marry be-
cause he did mt desire to divide the
care and attentions he gave entirely

GIVES ESTATE TO FIANCEE

Richmond, MOTOR many years
State Senator John F. Morton, the
dominant Democratic leader of the
Third district, paid regular visits to
the home of William M. Milligan mem
Der of the state board Of agriculture.
In recent years people noticed the
trips to the Milligan home, one mile
north of town, were made regularly
two or three times a week. AS in
most small towns, people became cur

state senator was attracted to the
country home because of Miss Maude

died unexpectedly. When his will was

handwriting was unmistaknbly that of
WIN Chandler. Myra knew It at once.
She had had several notes from VIII
before he fell In love with Ella Flagg.
The envelope was addressed to Ella
Flagg.
Myra's black eyes blazed jealousy as
she held the missive up to the light
and discerned through the thin paper
the dainty decoration of lovely val
entine.
A little printed verse could be plain
ly read:
Amid these wilds wander In despair,
1 sigh for her, SO faithless, yet so fair
Ye streams. ye woods. ye breezes tell
The agonies of soul for her feel.
A bit of doggerel verse-yet it set
Myra's heart to beating rapidly.
VIII Chandler had sent this valen-
tine to Ella Flagg-what wonder-work-
ing thing was this Love which could
bridge the long years of estrange-
ment?
Year after year VIII Chandler had
sent a similar message to Ella FlaGg-
and Ella had never received 1t Still,
VIII had doggedly sent the valentines.
Nothing in between, but on the days
devoted to the kindly saint, VIII sent
some message to his old sweetheart
and Ella never got it!
Myra Watts might have explained,
but she didn't.
Today her eyes glowed fiercely as
| she hid the letters away in her bureau
at home.
"They ought to be my valentines" ,"
she defended herself. $50 I'll keep
'em here!"
That night Myra closed the post Of
flee at eight o'clock and started for
home. Her way led past the little
house where Ella Flagg lived with an
invalid mother. When Myra passed
Mrs. Jacob Hill's house that good lady
ran out with a paper hat bag in her
hand.
"Oh, Myra," she painted, "do you
mind leaving this at Ella Flagg's
house? She's promised to fix my
mourning bonnet tonight SOS I can go
to Uncle Benny's funeral tomorrow.
I'm much obliged" she called over her
shoulder as she hurried into the house.
/ Myra turned into the Flagg gate and
went around the path to the side door.
| There was a light in the sitting room
and Myra peeped through the glass
panels of the door before she knocked.
What she saw there stayed her hand.
Ella Flagg was all alone in the
room. Myra knew that Mrs. Flagg
was asleep in the adjoining bedroom.
Elias fair head was pressed disconso-
late;y into the cushions of the soft
and her thin shoulders were heaving
convulsively.
Clenched In one thin hand was a
crumpled envelope and Myra shrewdly

guessed it might be some old love let
ter from viii Chandler.
Myra's tough little heart suddenly
melted-was this evening a repetition
of many other endings of st. Valen-
tines day? Had Ella Flagg hoped
each year that she would receive some
message from her absent lover?
And then the full realization of the
misery she had caused brought a
dreadful feeling of wretchedness to
her heart.
81 must tell her." decided Myra sud
denly; 81 must tell her about the let
ters 1 have kept back-and when he
comes after her, 1 must tell him, too,
and 1 must help her get ready for
her wedding-it's my punishment"
Softly she opened the door and went
inside.
When VIII Chandler came home to
claim Ella Flagg for his bride, people
marveled that Myra Watts appeared as
Elias maid of honor, and they could
not understand what had healed the
breach between the old friends.
Myra might have told you that it
was a bundle of suppressed letters
and valentines which Ella Flagg had
burned that memorable night when
Myra made confession of her wrongdo-
ing; but she kept her secret, and so
did Ella, and VIII Chandler refused
to listen to her story because he was
so glad and eager to hold Ella in his
arms again.
And when another valentine day
came around Myra sorted the mail,
quickly, deftly, and in another spirit.
When at last she came to large en-
bossed envelope postmarked Cali
fornia, where VIII and Ella were Iiv-
ing with old Mrs. Flagg. beautiful
color suffused her dark face.
"Come out here and live with u.s."
wrote Ella on the back of the valen-
tine they sent. "Will knows Of q
splendid position for you, and 1t is
summer all the time in California"
Myra went, and she says it is sum-
mer all the time in her heart, too. ever
since that night when she unburdened
1t to her friend and brought happiness
to three sorrowing souls.

Argument of Those Who Say, "United

BY J. M. DICKINSON. Former Secretary Of War

President Wilson has been criticized for referring
to the United States as "they" the idea being that
in this country there is irreconciable conflict
between people who think of the United States as is

of the president puts him in the company of very dis
