are going to be happy in the com pany of all the folks there. Heaven is to be a place of harmony. If some good church folks, in some communi- ties, get there and some other good church folks in the same community who belong to different expression of faith get there too and they take with them their good behavior here, there will be trouble, and a plenty of it, in Heaven.
 Come let us reason together. " The church should lead in every good thing for the neighborhood If it is going to lead 1t must unite the ef- forts of the church people.
 1st. The church should be a place of worship and study of the Bible. It must be equipped for such activities where the religious education can be adapted to the religious development of each person in the community.
 End. The church should be a place where good lectures and concerts can be held It should be a place where institutes could be held to discuss any phase of community development.
 3rd. Home is good place to have good time for the member of the home, but the average person is wid- CT in his social life than the home. The church should give him good times outside of his home. The church should be big neighborhood home and the best place in the world to have a good time.
 The play life of a community should be directed by the church, not criticized by it. When a person or an organization does nothing but criti- cize it is a recognized fact that it has failed to make good in interesting the people of the neighborhood in the thing the organization stands for. If the church leads in all the good times in the neighborhood then there will be no bad times as the time of the people have been taken up with the good times.
 4th. The physical side of the indi- vidual should be directed. Perhaps the school has already taken over large part of this direction. If it has or if it hasn't the church should get into the game and lead the school in helping people to develop their bodies and keep in proper health the house in which they live while on earth. The physical thoughts and appetites lead us astray when we are left alone with our thoughts. The church should have its building open every day of the year and have something going on there that will help the community get bigger vision of it's physical, mental, social and religious relation to itself and the individuals who make up the neighborhood.
 Perhaps you say this is too big a task. We agree with you that it is too big a task for the divided church but not for the united church. Take a pencil and write down the names of all the good people in your commun- ity who would be interested in the upbuilding of the community and you will be surprised how many you have. Now make list of them who are really active members of your own church and see how few you have. Your church can never save your community as there are dozens and dozens of people there who will never join your church. They have been taught differently. However, they would join community, or neigh.

Editor Leech's Alleged Con-

Washington, Aug. 7.-(Special)-
Congressman John w. Baer, Of North
Dakota, introduced a resolution today
directing the judiciary committee of
the house to investigate the circum-
stances connected with imprisonment
by judicial decree of Editor Edward
T. Leech, of the Memphis Press, for
alleged contempt.
The Leech case is rapidly assuming
Times. New York World, Washing
ton Herald and many other papers
throughout the country have COM
mented on the courts action and
have questioned editorially the JUS
tice of the editors sentence. The
consensus of opinion among the edi-
tors seems to be that the case con-
stitutcs an abridgment of the rights
OF free press. A peculiar feature is
that many of the newspapers are
confusing the imprisoned editor with
Harper Leech, formerly of Clarks-
vile and Nashville, who preceded
Edward T. Leech as editor of the
Press. The similarity of names has
caused this natural mistake. Ed
ward T. Leech is n Colorado boy who
won his journalistic spurs in the city
of Denver
Former editors Of the Memphis
paper, it is alleged have had a
rough road to travel in their fight
against the influences that have cast
odium on Shelby county throughout
the state.

Washington. Aug. THE Shan
tung settlement of the peace treaty
will become medium of at least
diplomatic exchanges between the
United States and Japan.
Officialdom today was seriously
tconcerned over the very evident at
tempt on the part of the Japanese
governmcnt to make any surrender
Of control on the peninsula contingent
lpon acceptance of the 1915 agree
ment between Japan and China.
That President Wilson realized the
lNgnificance of this move was indi-
ated' by his statement, issued last
hight, insisting that the agreement
rsached in Paris was in every way
Il dependent of the understanding be-
ttteen Japan and China. 1t was
sttted in official circles that Presi-
dent Wilson was ready, should he
DEEM 1t necessary, to issue a. COM
plete statement of everything that
transpired when the Shantung agree
ment was reached by the "big four"
Double Dealing Anglers.
AS a result of what is alleged to
be attempted double dealing on the
part of the Japanese there was grow
ing in Washington today, even among
senators who support the president
and the peace treaty, a feeling that
unless Japan shall fatty place in
writing and make public to all the
world her actual promises in connec-
tion with Shantung, the United States
senate will have to record its opposi-
ton to all of the Shantung settle
ment. This already has been made
plain to President Wilson. Admin
istration officials said today that in
view of the open difference of opin-
lon between the president and Wis.,
count Uchida. the Japanese minister
of foreign affairs. regarding the in
fuences behind the Shantung agree
ment carried in the peace treaty, the
president may ask Japan to take a
position along the lines of the abso-
lute nrnmiSeS made in Paris
