Chautaupua Plans,


 With the arrival of Miss Louise F. Shields, representing the Ellison White Chautauqua, interest in the fes- tival coming to Mesa has taken on added interest and the children and citizens generally are busy preparing for the event. Miss Shields visited the high school and practically all of the grade schoos yesterday, and .at each gave a brief summary of what the weeks program includes. Julius Gran Nayphe, who opens the festival Saturday evening, she regards as one of the best numbers. Mrs Lela K Dye also arrived yesterday morning from Los Angeles and went on to Gilbert, where she will remain in the interest of the Chautauqua which is to open there on Monday evening" The same attractions playing in Mesa will be seen in Gilbert.

Harrisburg telegraph. [volume] (Harrisburg, Pa.) 1879-1948, 1919-11-28
BY WILLIAM T. ELLIS

The international committee which
selects the Sunday school lessons did
its work on the present series several
years ago; yet here comes to-day's
lesson as opportunely as though plan
ned last week. 1t lays finger OF
wisdom upon the sensitive center of
the labor question. Revealing the
spirit suck as blights our own day,
it shows Jesus as pointing the way
out of this old. old perpleXity.
First for the lesson story itself,
as we have it in the Weymouth
Version:
Now just before the Feast of the
Passover this incident took place.
Jesus knew that the time had come
for Him to leave this world and go
to the Father; and having loved His
own who We're in the world, He
loved them to the end. While sup
per was proceeding, the Devil hav-
ing by this time suggested to Judas
lSCariot, the son of Simon, the
thought of betraying Him, Jesus,
although He knew that the Father
had put everything into His hands,
and that He lad come forth from
God and was now going to God, rose
from table. threw off His ouper gar
ments, and took a towel and tied it
round Him. Then He poured water
into a basin, and proceeded to wash
the feet of the disciples and 70 wipe
them with the towel which He had
put around Him. When He came to
Simon Peter, Peter objected.
- Master he said, are you go
ing to wash my feet
" What l am doing answered Je-
sus, for the present you do not
know, but afterwards YOU shall
know
" Never, while the world lasts,
said Peter. shall YOU wash my feet
If l do not wash YOU" replied
Harrisburg telegraph. [volume] (Harrisburg, Pa.) 1879-1948, 1919-11-28

in some guise or other: the real
ldlers in this new western world
are so few as to be negligible. The
first test of a mans worth to the
world is what he contributes TO the
common well-being, by brain or
Drawn. The person who looks down
upon the manual laborers is as bad
a citizen as the Bolshevik who rails
at all others as bourgeois" Both
are silly, and exerting a nalign in
fluence out of all proportion to tEeir
personal importance. Anybody who
thinks or talks in terms of classes
to-day is adding to the worlds woe,
and intensifying its gravest present
problem. Would that a great leader
might arise to blaZon upon the days
horizon. in fullest significance, the
inspirited truth, One is your Master,
even Christ. and all ye are broth
rem"
Neither leisure nor pleasure is
alone worth living for. Work, real
work, hard work. taxing work, is
the human lot, our contribution to
our world. Into the thinking of the
oncoming generation there should be
instilled love for work, pride in
work. and veritable passion for
work. Among memorized poems
should be Henry van Dykes:
Let me but do my work from day
TO day,
In field or forest, at the desk or
loom.
In roaring market-place or tram
quill room:
Let me but find it in my heart to
say,
When vagrant wishes beckon me
astray,
This is my work; my blessing,
not my doom:
OF all who live | am the one by
whom
This work can best be done in my
own way
Then shall see it. not too greet
nor small
To suit my spirit and arouse my
powers;
Then shall I cheerfully greet the
laboring hours,
And cheerfully turn, when the long
shadows fall
At eventide, to play and love and
rest,

Jesus. YOU have no share with me.
Master, said Peter, wash not
only my feet, but also my hands and
my head
Any one who has lately bath-
ed said Jesus, does not need 70
wash more than his feet, but is clean
all over. And you my disciples are
clean, and yet this is not true of all
of you.
For He knew who was betraying
Him, and that was why He said,
You are not all of you clean.'
so after He had washed their
feet, put on His garments again, and
returned TO the table. He said to
them,
DO you understand what / have
done to you? You call me The Rab-
BIZ and The Master and rightly so,
for suck l am. If | then, your Mas
ter and Rabbi, have washed your
feet, it is also your duty to wash one
another's feet For l have set YOU
an example in order that YOU may do
what | have done to YOU. In most
solemn truth | tell YOU that a serv-
ant is not superior to his Master,
nor is a messenger superior TO him
who sent him.
Who Will Do Manual Work?
Most of the conditions of to-day's
labor troubles were there present,
This group of fishermen friends of
Jesus felt themselves superior to
manual labor of a menial sort. They
had been quarrelins among them
selves as to which was the greater.
and about their own rights and privi
leges. That phase OF the setting of
the incident is told by Luke coz:
24-27. These plain men had he
come proud and self-centered. They
were jealous for their personal and
class rights. They had grown so
selfish and sensitive" that on one

hospitable office of pouring water on
the dusty feet of the others. No
body, in sort, wanted to do O slaves
work.
Therefore Jesus did it himself.
The carpenter had no trade scruples
about entering domestic service. He
was not above any task, however
menial. Not his to insist upon his
rights" and his superiority: he
proved his greatness by STOPPING TO
the lowest labor. On all sides we
hear 1t said that our need of needs
is for everybody to work harder, and
at the nearest task. The servant
problem in homes is apparently only
going to be solved by return, to
the old-fashioned methods of women
doing their own work.
As matter of everyday observa-
ton, too many of us are, like the
apostles, standing on our dignity.
and hiring work done by others
which we should do ourselves. Half
the recruits to the overcrowded
classes OF underpaid clerks are inn
PEELED primarily by desire to wear
white collars: or conversely, by an
aversion TO overalls and soiled
nands.
One day in France l was talking
with group of young officers about
the NouulTS y dIleG-lIlS-Naf prop
lens, especially as affecting immi-
grafton and labor. Up spoke one
man, This war has taken the stig-
ma from manual labor. The men
have dug countless miles of trench
es. and have grown strong at it.
They will not object to digging
trenches at home, if properly paid.
Hard work is healthful. and most of
us would rather be busy out of doors
than cooped up in offices" War
taught youth the dignity of hard
work. 1t made them servants un-
abashed. They learned that
Honor and shame from no condi-

 The importance of using only long strand cotton can hardly be overesti- mated for it is a proven fact that the longer thel strand used in weaving any material the more enduring is the ma terial, andI the higher the price it com mands Realizing this, the Dreadnaught company uses only the best quality Of
 Sea Island and Egyptian cotton, both Of
 which are derived from the same species and are noted for their long strands.
 It would be much cheaper to use southern
 upland cotton, but the fabric would not stand up as we'll as sea island. The cot
 ton is carefully inspected before being
 used, even the number of threads in each
 strand being a matter of specification.
 Raw rubber is composed chiefly of the
 soft solid, elastic substance known as
 cacutchouc, and appears in thick sheets
 resembling honeycomb tripe. But in it's
 natural state rubber is not sufficiently tough for the usage of tire, so a num- Der of mineral substances are added The most important change, however is due to vulcanizing, which is accomplished by the addition of sulphur, and then sub jecting the, combination to a low degree of heat. Besides sulphur. zinz oxide is used to tougheu. while palm olive makes the whole supple and counteracts any ten dency toward brittleness.
