blurred. We have lost our God be- cause we have brought Him too near.
 But still, persists the human wish to know when God knows us. and to this there are two approaches First, the recognition that certain voices in our world are the voices of God, an assumption with which man must start, if he is to have any growth of character in his life. These are voices speaking to us everyday which come from God-some biF Of caution, some appeal to rectitude, some little challenge to integrity. a subtle some thing that asks to be a little bet ter than we are a lifting up of soul above vicissitude and submergiHg ex- periences-thats God!
 The second approach is through the realization that the most valuable thing in life is a relationship-that is something that has to exist even be- fore love The relationship of one soul to another is the greatest thing in the world. the great fundamental fact of life That is the very meaning of prayer, that moment when you con- sciously strive to look at joy and vii eissitude and all life as God looks at it. Do not keep Him either too re- mote or too near. but come into re- lationship and communion with God that is prayer.

SQUARE DEAL BOTH WAYS NEEDED

CT, they had better give him one l used to know an old reunder when ] was a boy who had a motto that he very often quoted. Right wrongs mo- body" It's pretty good motto for la boz unions to observe.
 The coal miners are asking for 60 per cent. increase and a 30-hour week. don't imagine I should care to work in a coal mine for over tety hours a week at hundred CT dent. increase. But it does seem to me that any man who works at any job ought to do a good piece of work and put in a fair days work. Charles Schwab said the other day that an honest days work for an honest days pay would solve the problem of the high cost of liv- ing. I do not know whether those two clements would cut the high cost of of the hour. An honest days work for an honest days pay.
 Labor unions at the present time are engaged in a holdup of the country. At the point of the pistol they are making demand after demand and many of them are wrong
 am sympathetic with labor unions, and because I am so. I want to say that this day of their power isn't go- ing to stay unless they use it right. Publi copinion will smash anything in the long run that is unfair and un- |reasonab ble.
 He that doeth the will of God shall abide forever. Labor ought to have square deal. but capital ought also to have a square deal. and the long suffering public. which never had a square deal ought to have one.
 Labor ought to have a square deal, but it ought to give one. Exagger- ated self importance, poor work large demands, unfair and exorbftant, will finally bring it's harvest.

CONGREGATIONAL PASTOR
 CONTINUES SERMON SERIES

At the United Congregational church Sunday morning the Rev. Alexander Il. Abbott preached the second in a series of sermons under the general heading. Convictions of Modern Man. the topic for this special morn ings talk being mans idea of prayer.
 Prayer is nothing else but comrnun- ion with God. We need that experi- enee, and if that is infreeuent, nev- ertheless, we want it. Why is it that this experience is so very rare and that onIy-once in while are we de- iberately conscious of it? Some say this is q prayerless generation, but ihs world needs prayers.
 There are times when we don't feel iike praying, & when we are not in beat down. when one neither wants nor feels the need to pray, Not that we consciously lack sympathy or a re- Sponse to duty. but because of the shape our acliSns and from which we caHnot eScape-these interrupt our communion with God.
 One force which has an especial bearing is that philosophy of life which keeps God too remote-the re- suit of that law of cause aAd effect which so many follow unconsciously. applying its method to everything. That there is a new doctrine named evolution few sane people doubt. but
 
 see it's limitations; we thought we discovered God, only to find a descrip- tieH of the way life proceeded. The fault was in not making a distinction between the ordered and the Orderer between effects and Him who created them. It was like looking through the large end of telescope. instead of the small end. making God become more and more remote, the naturalre- suit being, that as we are too human to pray to dim, distant speck we gave I'D praying.
 Then, there is that philosophy of life that made God too near. because of certain majesty of life and certain spirit that goes all over the universe Can we fatter ourselves that we have escaped the danger of making God too tapgihlee We speak to the Gigantic Being and nothing answefs-we look for the God whose light is in the stars, and only the star remaiHs-we are looking through. the small end of khe telescope until all the lines which mako fer distinction af, chAxacter are

OCEAN CARGO RATES
TO FRANCE REDUCED
BY HARRY HANSEN.
CabIegram to The Evening Star and

PARIS, January 29.-American ex-
porters are now able to ship TO
France at the rate of $50 ton, ac-
cording to Vincent De Messimy OF
Chicago, counsel for the French ex-
porters. This is the result OF the
gradual drop in prices since the ar
mistice was signed, when the cost
was approximately $3.50 ton. One
third of the French tonnage is avail
able at this rate. Two-thirds are
requsitioned by the French govern
ment for the Importation of sugar,
cotton, flour. petroleum and other ar
ticles from America.
The French government has set the
price it will pay at s35 ton. to
which it still allows a carriers profit.
Thus the high price which the car
riers are able to obtain from individ-
ual firms indicates that it is the re-
suit of scarcity of tonnage. NJ. Mes
shiny believes that the high shipping
rate will result in many ships being
diverted to the New York cargo trade
and that this will lead to a gradual
lowering of the rates.
French exports today are at a low
point but reports from the south in
dictate that the mills are resuming
work fast, especially in the manu-
facture of high-grade silks.

between January and January 20

here An explanation has been given
the Daily Mail by the ministry of
shipping 1t is said that owing to an
oversight the ministry failed to give
the post office the usual notification
of fast ships sailing during the period
mentioned. The post office failed to
make inquiry and consequently the
ships sailed without mail.
