London Doctors Eager to Examine

OF course you have heard of Datas,
the human encyclopedia-the man
who can memorize and reel Off dates
quicker than the fire of a machine
gun; the man on whose head the doc
tors have placed price of $4,000?
''But am not anxious to sell it yet
for dissection" Datas told writer
for London Tit-Bits the other day.

Datas has lately been devouring
war facts and had just added couple
Of thousand In two and a half hours
to his repertoire when we met.
For an outlay Of twopence," he
said, II bought little book on a
bookstall, called Two Thousand Facts
About the War; I bought 1t and read

There is no doubt about 1t. I test

him-dates Of battles, air raids, names
Of ships sunk, famous generals ca

DECLARE WAR WITH
HUNS TERMINATED
NEW MEXICO SENATOR BACK OF
MEASURE WHICH WILL CUT
OFF FUNDS.
No Funds Made Available by Army
Bill Could be Used for Forces on
Foreign Soil in Furtherance of
War, Declares Fall.

Washington.-Wa with Germany
and Austria would be declared at an
end by an amendment to the army ap-
preparation bill introduced Monday by
Senator Fall, Republican of New Mex
leo, with a view to removing from con-
gress any blame for continuing war
conditions pending ratification of the
peace treaty.
The measure, which would require
approval of both senate and house, pro-
vdes that none of the funds made
available by the army bill could be
used for maintaining forces on foreign
soil In furtherance of the war.
In addition, the amendment would
direct the president To order the i'm
mediate return to the United States Of
all military and naval forces abroad in
connection with the war.
The amendment follows:

While a good many designers have

base their opinion in the great pop

in large patterns. 1t has been mar

have never been good to any extent

GRocERs MEET IN SALT LAKE
Advocate Legislation to Curb Price
Determinations.

Salt Lake City.-Following upon the
heels of the Rotary convention comes
the gathering of the retail grocers of
the nation in the Utah capital.
The part played by the retail groc-
ers In the war and the problems fac
ing them in the reconstruction were
the two principal themes discussed at
the opening sessions of the twenty
sixth annual convention of the Ma
tional Retail Grocers' association
which opened here June %.
Pleas for greater cooperation among
retail grocers, arraignment of the
packers, the advocacy of legislation to
curb price determinations, severe crit
icism Of the leash and carry and
chain store systems of retail merchan-
dising and warning to retailers that
with the signing Of the peace treaty a
downward trend in foodstuffs probably
will come within thirty days, were
some of the subjects presented.

EoRTY-FoUR HOUR WEEK GOAL
Federation Pledged to Obtain Shorter

Atlantic City, N. 1.-The American
Federation of Labor, at its closing SEES

eral 44-hour week for workers in all
crafts throughout the United States

ment, which, the delegates declared. is

decreased purchasing power of the dol

were urged to bridge the gap and

was imprisoned, and was led to faith
In Christ. He endcarcd himself to the
apostle by ministCring to him in his
bonds, service for which his training
as slave peculiarly fitted him. Yet
the time came when Paul felt he
should send him back to his owner, the
his hands the letter with which all the
world has become familiar, in order to
insure him kindly reception as q
Christian brother, In spite Of his past
defectiOns. Erasmus said of this let
ter, "Cicero never wrote with greater
eloquence," and Rennn declared that it
Is "a small but true masterpiece Of the
art Of letter writing"
We will not deal at this time with
the marvellous tact exhibited by Paul
in appealing to Philemon ON behalf Of
Oneslmus. but confine ourselves to the
terms used by the apostle In speaking
Of the slave whom he is sending home.
1t will help us to appreciate these
terms If we remind ourselves that, in
Pauls day, slaves were looked on as
things" rather than men. Wealthy
men sometimes owned as many as 10.-
600 or 10000, and a couple of hundred
in family was common. In the time
Of Augustus 400 slaves were put to
death because their master had been
murdered, presumably by one Of them.
How remarkable, then, the express
sion Paul uses, my son Onesimus
whom have begotten in my bonds"
1,n inP ~ ,i, \
refers to him as "my very heart" ".
IL r. W and says, IF thou count me
therefore partner, receive him as my
self" ". ~. Anything which could
make Pharisee talk so about slave
Is certainly worthy Of consideration
and the wonder Of 1t is increased as
we recall that Paul was Roman citi-
zen also.
Again, rs If punning on Onesimus'
name, he says that he was in time
past "to thee Improbable, but now
profitable to thee and to me-" What
was this power that had taken Onesi-
mus out of the refuse heap Of society
and made him useful to all to whom
he was related? Voltaire said, "Phil-
Osophy does not concern itself with
common minds. We have never under
taken to enlighten cobblers and maid
servants. We leave that to apostles"
Turning Point for John B. Cough.
Well, fortunately, the apostles knew
power, even the gospel which is unto
salvation to every one who believes.
We wonder what Voltaire could have
done for Onesimus, or to come to mod
ern times, for John B. Gough2 Cough
once lay In the gutter, drunk, with the
MONDAY sun pouring down on his face.

We hear much today Of social re-

might learn from the story Of Onesl-
mus this truth, which all the Christian
centuries illustrate. The history Of
missions in Greenland Is typical one.
Hans Egede went out first and labOred
faithfully on the theory that we should
first civlliZe then Christinnize. But he
finally gave up his task rs hopeless. He
was followed by John Back, who re-
versed the process and found the Sc
cret Of success. From his lips Il saw

Of Christ's agony in the garden. 1t

Land Reclamation.

There can be no wiser investment
that nation can make than to add
to its territory by taking from desert
and waters and desolation land that
is now useless. Nations make war
upon each other that they may have
new lands-lands in tropical Africa,
in remote Asia. They spend life and
go deeply into debt that they may
gain small domains already filled
with an unprogressive people. And
here, under our own flag, we have
land as rich as the Valley of the Nile,
not ours yet, for it does not serve
us, which we can conquer with
little thought a"d the lending Of
little money. This is conquest
worthy Of a democracy, giving free
men their chance to make themselves
economically free without the she'd
ding Of blood or the breaking Of
hearts.
