Poker Playing Preachers.

The advertisement from Manitoba mining
camp for preacher who is "a regular herman"
and who can protect himself In a game of
poker is probably bit fanciful, but it points
very accurately to one of the needs Of the day.
Churchmen who have carefully studied the
trend of thought agree that men are not to be
won back to the church by any Of the ultra
refnements of creed or dogma that gained head
in the days before the war shook society's
foundations The fundamental faith in God
the truths of revealed religion, are not to be
gainsaid, nor are they to be advanced by
metculous interference with the minor matters
Of life. Men are concerned more as to the re-
lations between themselves and their Maker
than over the pitiful points of belief on which
the differences in creed are founded.
Breaking down the barriers that have been
erected during centuries to dam the flow OF hui
r1anity's natural aspirations will not be an easy
task, but some of the artificial obstacles will
have to be removed The successful preacher
Of the future will not need an extensive knowl-
edge Of poker, but he will get along better if he
knows enough to sympathize with the man who
does play Religion will be more effective
when it teaches man that God made the world
beautiful and intended that man should enjoy
it, holding him to rational accountability for
his actions.
Faith in God should be an inspiration and
not depressing thought. Bigotry has made
the world hideous for ages, and it is nearly time
that it be cast out, and that man be permitted
to stand upright in the light of heaven and
answer to his God for the things he has done
as we'll as for the things he has left undone.

This era Of prosperity, o gay and festive
friend, like every good thing on the earth must
some day have an end, Of what avail in that
sad hour the pictures you have seen in flimsy
huttered frequence filmed upon the silly screen?
What pleasure from the fine cigars which now
you nadly, smoke if on that frownng, fatal
day you find that you are broke? .'
Behold fine example in another human
type, man whose judgment is discreet whose
years are rich and ripe For 50 rounds of sea-
sons he has, gone at break of day to labor in
his bank where gold and notes are filed away;
or if perchance they venture out to serve the
aims Of men, security is bonded for their COM
ing back again II
When Joseph Hopkins Willard needs some
coal to build fire or lacks a lively inner tube
to fortify tire, he is not thus dsmantled in a
lorn and hopeless wreck. He tells the minis
tiers of JOY thai he will send check. Perhaps
he has not always lived at your distinguished
speed, but still, my hasty lad, his word will buy
what he may need.
When Roosevelt engineered the ditch which
makes the oceans one, ]. Hopkins was upon the
job to see the thing, we'll done. As senator he
headed the committee in whose charge was
this impressive piece Of work, responsible and
large. They looked to him for suitable INSTALL

he cut stack of ice.

.THE FUTURE or EUROPE"

II the moral and material well-being Of the
United States Of America were 30 intimately
bound up in the fate of Europe, as our
hysterieal hyphenated contemporary processes to
believe we are in 4 parlous state Sober
thought does not lead to the conclusion so
handily attained by the World-Herald in its
zeal for the league covenant without = dot on
an Il" OF. \ cross on It" other than as put
there by the president.
No doubt Europe does face "red winter"
and that it will be long before order is restored
there but in this resides no argument that OUT
own land should forfeit its stability because
none exists in. Europe. France and England
with whom we are more intimately associated
for the moment, are not seriously confronted
by any threat of anarchy Politics and indus
try alike are settling down to normal conditions
there, and wise counsel prevails in both lands.
Were we entirely involved in the Leagne of
Nations the fact would be of little service to
Germany, specifically excluded from member
ship or to Russia, tossed on waves Of unreason
and without any form OF government recog-
nizable.
To the lesser nations of Europe as to the
greater, we present the spectacle of people
willing to help, but unwilling to jeopardize all
the fruits Of our efforts at self-government in
order to aid those who show little if any I'M
Outstanding of what self-government means.
and whose "red winter will be the result not
of our "myopic sehshness" but because the
high flung wave of ignorance and brute passion
has not yet receded.
The United States is under no form Of obi
AaJc
governments of that region, in spite of Senator
Hitchcocks assertion that we made such
pledge when the fourteen points" were en-
unciated. We dodge no responsibility when we
insist that these nations first make some show
of helping themselves. Americans have not
solved their yown problems, and may be ex-
cused from any imputaton of selhshness if
they stick to the tasks at home.

newspaper page, printers must put
together thousands of pieces Of
type, linotype slugs, and other pieces
Of metal--even the pictures are
metal engravings. 1t takes a long
time to do this and the page form is
bulky, heavy and flat. Suppose they
wanted to duplicate tor to make
curved duplicates for the round
rolls Of a rotary press-they'd have
to do it all over again. But stereo-
tipping is a quick, cheap way Of
making such duplicates.
"The first step consists in making
a papier-mache (pasteboard) mold
of the type form. This is done by
wetting sheet of pasteboard,
spreading it over a type form, and
placing the form and pasteboard in
press that is heated by steam or
electricity to bake the pasteboard.
The result is a matrix, or mat, that
contains a mold of all the type in
the form.
"The mat is then placed in a cast
ing box, and molten metal is poured
over it. After flowing into all the
depressions in the mat, the metal
hardens into a plate that is an exact
copy of all the type and will print
the same words and pictures. If
the casting mold is curved, the mat
is bent and the resulting plate is
curved for the rotary press. Many
plates may be made from one mat.
Distributors of newspaper ar
ticles, ads, or pictures, often use the
process to save extra typesetting.

Leaving Il to the Voters.

One of the beauties of the popular-vote
method of legislation is amply illuminated by
the outcome of the prohibition fight in Ohio
The voters were asked to decide on four inter
related questions: The ratification of the fed
eral constitutional prohibition amendment, per-
mission to sell us beer, to repeal the Ohio
prohibitory law, and an act to enforce prohibit
ton Ratification of the federal amendment
was refused, as was permission to make and
sell us beer; the statewide prohibition law
won a second time, but the law to/enforce it
failed AT this distance it is impossible to un-
derstand the local influences that made possible
these peculiar decisions by the voters, but the
result is plain. Ohio wants state but not ma
tion-wide prohibition; does not want diluted
beer, and declines to adopt law to enforce
prohibition. A more perfect exempacation Of
the ability of the voters to discriminate and
reach definite conclusions scarcely could be
cited

Notice that Everything Is Vile

If Americans remain blind to the shocking
state of their morals it is not for lack of warn
Sngs. In the bare knees of some young women
dancers at Port Chester charity performance
a reverend critic sees symptoms of "a menace
to the welfare of our nation much more subtle
and destructive than bodily sickness and dis
ease" and in Paris dancing master, protest
ing against American contortions." says:
paris is resolved not to suffer any longer
American immortality in the form of the SHIN
ny-shake and other revolving importations
from America"
Paris declaiming against the low morals of
American dancing is something. But it is from
Atlantic City convention of reformers that
the worst indictment comes. According to one
speaker, Sin public these days you can scarcely
tell the difference between a street woman and
a church woman" And other speakers dwelt
on the return to civilian life of millions Of SOL
der and sailor boys with their ideas of women
lowered by their experience overseas" and
pointed out that the instruction in the avoidance
of disease given to the American forces in the
war made the social problem all the more diff
cult because fear, the chief deterrent heretofore
had been>removed."
1t is sad catalogue Of decadence. 1t is con-
fceivable of course, that Paris should look
askance at an improper dance not Of Partisan
origin, and bare knees are admittedly shocking
on a suburban stage; these are sights for Broad
way. But are not the eyes of our Atlantic City
moraEsts unduly jaundced? Perhaps public
that has heard all the changes rung on the cor
ruption of American morals will not take this
jeremad as seriously as its authors might wish.

On the other hand, a girl could
shop for the busy housewives at the
local department stores. This note,
mailed to a list of busy matrons
would rapidly secure for her a
clientele:
Have you some errands for me?
Little errands, big errands, any that
will lift some of the burden of the
days from your shoulders. I am
ready to buy anything you wish.
Phone me to talk your shopping

When a girl has secured sufi-
cient number of customers she can,
by patronizing continuously certain
shops, obtain from them 10 per
cent discount ON all purchases. The
customer on her part, pays to the
shopper for this service fee of 5
per cent.

Miners Work and Wages.

Bloomfield. Neb, November IL,
To the Editor of The Bee:
In relation to the coal miners
strike: Before the initiation of
the present strike, how many days
per week did these men work, and
the number of hours per day? What
was the scale of wages paid?
What are their present demands?
What per cent of the total number
of men that are out are Of Ameri-
can birth? J. H. M.
Answer-The number. of days the
men actually worked varies widely,
all the way from none to six week.
1t Is stated by the miners that they
had about 1870 days work a year, but
the operators say the men volun-
tarily abstained from working long
er. Union miners are on the S-hour
day basis. The scale of wages varied
in relation to the kind of work per-
formed. In the Franklin County.
Illinois, district, machine miners
earned for the year ending with
October, an average of $1,700, and
hand miners $1,000 for the same
time. Men on time work averaged
81 per day, although many received
a much higher rate of pay. Roughly
speaking, the present demands are
for 6-hour day, 5-day week and
an increase approximately so per
cent in pay. 1t is impossible to an
swer your last questionable. Bee.
