speaking on The New Era and the
Old Gospel" at the First Baptist
Church, said "the reason the church
has failed in it's heavenly mission is
because we have not challenged the
world with a cause great enough to
evoke and command the devotion and
self-sacrifce of men. Real Christian
ity is not a feeble submission; il is
noble dedication of our best powers to
the building of the Kingdom of God"
At the Temple Baptist Church, the
Rev. DR.. J. J. Muir advocated the use
of the axe on bolshevists, in the same
manner as John the Baptist advo-
Gated the axe for trees which did
not bear good fruit. In this connec-
tion DR.. Muir said: at is the duty
of our people to sustain the Govern
ment in dealing with embryo revolu-
tions and their propagators."
Were there more young men of
Christian character, upright, clean in
morals and life, marrying the virtu-
Gus. godly girls of our land, we
should have better homes and fam
lies" declared the Rev. George A.
Miller at the Ninth Street Christian
Church in preaching last night on

Husband" DR.. Miller quoted from let
ters he had received from young
women.

CARS VANISH; CITY
PAYS MORE TO RIDE
Toledo Trolleys Spirited Away
As Result of Custer Caused
By Fare Boost.

TOLEDO, Ohio, Nov. 1o.-With not
a street car running in Toledo as the
result of an custer ordering them off
the streets because passengers were
paying from 8 to s cents to ride, the
same passengers today are paying 10
and 15 cents to ride in automobile
buses.
The Toledo Railways and Light
Company began midnight to spirit
the cars out of the city until not a
vehicle with wheels under il was left
within the Jurisdiction of the city Of
ficials who were responsible for the
custer ordinance passed last June
being submitted to the people.
Mayor Cornell Schreiber himself
Introduced the ordinance when the
company increased the fares from s
to 6 cents and 2 cents for a transfer,
to take care of an increase in car
mems wages. a.. g..
The cars were removed without
notice TO public and city officials
alike. All were taken into Michigan
and stored on sidetracks. The action
was taken Immediately after official
notification was given the company
by the board of elections that the
custer ordinance had been approved
by the voters.
/ Officials of the street car com
-pany, of which Henry L. Doherty, OF
New York. is the head, gave it OFT
that cars are not to be operated here
until permanent settlement has
been reached or is assured" All in
teruFban cars are being turned back
at the city limits.
The last card has not yet been
played" said Mayor Schrieber Lass
night. The public is not helpless
and the rights Of the public will be
fully protected.
I'm the meantime this is an appeal
to all truck owners. jitney bus own
ers, automobile owners, factory own
ers, and everyone to let a neighborly
spirit prevail. If all these will lend
aid in carrying the public the emerg-
ency will be met

THE Jerseyites no longer talk

Drive they seem to nave for
gotten about the obnoxious factories
which a year ago they sought so
energetically to have restricted from
sending across the river their odor-
ferrous fumes. And so with Brooklyn,
Harlem and the Bronx. All have
abandoned their particular sectional
or local complaint for the common
grievance. the universal affliction-the
landlord
Even the agelong combat over heat,
hot water, elevator service, redecora-
ton and everything else for which
the tenant paid. but which he re-
celved only according to conditions

the shelf. 1t is now one great
struggle for existence, a fight against
being raised out to the street, even
though you live on the tenth floori
But it is no longer n struggle: they
just get away with II. And in this
respect the landlord OF to-day re-
sembles the original OF the species.
Landlords had their start way back
in the benighted middle ages when
the king, in return for military SER
vice, divided up the land among his
barons, They, in turn, apportioned It
to the lesser nobility who were TO de-
liver up their tenants for military
| service in time OF need. which, OF
course, was all the time, for when
the various countries were not fight
ing one another the barons were
scrappinS among themselves. So the
tenant or serf. as he was then more
aptly called, had "A rather sorry life
OF il, similar in some respects to the
existence of the tenant to-day. He
shaved on the land and then turned
over 10 his master all except what he
| needed to keep body and soul to-
gethcr. In return he was expected
TO be ready at all times to give his
life for his master
Even to-day, in England, a modi-
He'd state of feadnlism exists among
the landed classes, who in q great
measure control the lives OF their
tenants. And in Austria and Hum
gary, the country gentry are Win
