NOT AFRAID TO FIGHT

If there is one Twin City daily
that is not afraid to s'step on toes"
when toes need stepping on-no
matter whose they are, that is The
Minneapolis Daily News. r i IT,
w. A. Frisbie, it's editor, was for
several years Managing Editor Of
The Minneapolis Journal. He knows
the Northwest from a newspaper
standpoint from "A to z" and now
that he is with an INDEPENDENT
newspaper one never knows where
the scrap may break out next. 81.
But The Daily News is a fair
fighter. It believes in giving both
sides of a question. It never tries to
force an opinion down the threats

Accidents and

Dr. James F.. billiard preached ser mon of absorbing interest yesterday morning before a large congregation at the Southside Baptist church, having for his theme Accidents and Calamities." pr Dillard said in part:
 Every day records its ghastly list of horrible accidents and heart rending ca lamities. I recall the Charleston earth quake, the Johnstown flood, the St Louis cyclone and the sinking of the Titanic l knew cultured and Cody mother who took poison by accident a lovely and promising young man that shot himself accidentally and beloved physician who while on a mission of mercy ran over a man. What is the explanation?
 You will recall that Virgil in the Aenead tells of a storm at sea that de- stroyed many of the survivors from An cient Troy. The poet tells us that the explanation of this awful storm is found in the Jealousy and envy of Juno, the Queer of Heaven. On one occasion three sodesses, Juno, Minerva and Venus, had dispute about which was the most beautiful. They decided to leave it to the Judgment of Paris, the son of the King of Troy. This young man declared Venus to he the most beautiful. As a result of this decision Juno was not only angry at Paris, but also at all his fam ay and bs city and nation Juno fights for the owe throw of Troy and is sue cessful. When the survivors launch out Y, sea she goes to the Coo of the Winds .lnd DeTStlssGcs llln to send a storm with it's atteudalst horrors
 The ancient Hebrews, in common with ni4s5 othe@ peoples, thought that the explanation of the accidents and calami- ' es of life was to be found in the ac- .rities of evil spirits. chiefest among synom was Satan. Recall the story in th1 Siook or Job. X later conception was sound in the justice of God, and acci- geRts and e3lamites were looked upon as being sent by Holy God as a judgment lpon the slns of the people This was the ldea that the Disciples seemed to hold. out Jesus eontradicted it when he declared Chat ll;e eighteen upon whom the Tower of Siosn fell were not sin ners above all that dwelt in Jerusalem, IL seems never to have occurred to any the tower was poor foundation or de- fective workmanship.
 Jesus taught that we are living in a world of law and order: that these laws are the laws of God and are therefore scod. He taught. however. that not even .- sparrow coC.i fall to the earth with s~-t our Fathers knowledge, consequently all things shall finally work together for good.
