town over. The express made good
time and / reached Nevers at mid
night. The weather during the whole
of my trip was pleasantly warm.
| may say few words in regard
TO the Y. NJ. c. A. and the work they
have done here. Their splendid
work is too well known to go into
details, in spite of the statements of
a few chronic grouches. In Paris
they afford the soldiers and sailors
all kinds of accommodations and re-
creation, free of charge; all kinds of
sightseeing trips, cigarettes, tea,
chocolate, cakes, lectures, etc. Of
course, as they readily admit, they
are the medium of the folks back
home, but they deserve praise for
their efficient service.
The Red Cross has also been of in
estimable value to the army, espec-
tally through their hospitals and can
teens. For instance, at the Quai
d'Orsay there is a Red Cross lunch
room where a Wholesome breakfast
can be obtained for SO centimes and
dinner for IS centimes. They also
have dormitories accommodating
thousands of soldiers.
The Knights of Columbus deserve
a great deal of commentator. They
have done much for the moral and
physical welfare of the troops. They
are to be found throughout France
and in the zone o& occupation, eady
to cheer a fellow up or amuse him
with circus or a movie.
The hotels and restaurants charge
high prices for ordinary meals, due to
the high cost of produces. The
money expended on my furlough is
not to be regretted, as this is a
chance of lifetime.
The fellow who saved money here
is gradually losing it with the con-
tinual increase in the rate of ex-
change of the dollar and franc. Last
February the rate was 5 francs As
centimes on the dollar, and now it is
6 francs So confines, and although
the salary is proportionately in
creased, one loses more than 20 per
cent on last years savings.
The children here are very fond
of Americans, as they know he usu-
ally carries something edible about
him, and the usual greeting he re-
ceives is cigarettes, chocolat, gum,
tabac pour papa?" whether he be at
Brest, Verdun or Marseilles, and al
though they mean no harm, they have
really cometo be a source of bother
alton. This is due largely to the
Americans themselves, as they
spoiled the children in the beginning.

The teachings of the Church. OF
Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints con
corning the duty of its members, and
of all men, in relation to the secular
law, are set forth in Section 134 of the
y Doctrine & Covenants, which is one
! of the standard works of the church.
/ This is part of the law of the Church,
and has been adopted as a guide in
faith and practise by the members in
general conference assembled.
OF Governments and Laws in General.
Il. We believe that governments
were instituted of God for the benefit
Of man, and that He holds men &C
countable for their acts in relation to
them, either in making laws or adj
ministering them, for the good and
safety OF society.
81 We believe that no government
can exist in peace, except such laws
are framed and held inviolate as will
secure to each individual the free ex-
srciseg of conscience. the right and
control OF property. and the protection
OF life.
49, We believe that all govern
ments necessarily require civil Off
GERS and magistrates to enforce the
laws OF the same, and that such as
will administer the law in equity and
justice should be sought for and up
held by the voice OF the people (if a
republic). or the will OF the sovereign.
"a. We believe that religion is in
stituted of God, and that men are
amenable to Him, and to Him only,
for the exercise of it, unless their
religious opinions prompt them to in
friYige upon the rights and liberties of
others: but we do not believe that
human law has q right TO interfere in
prescribing rules of worship to bind
the consciences of men, nor dictate
forms of public or private devotion;
that the civil magistrate should
restrain crime, but never control con-
science; should punish guilt, but
never suppress the freedom of the
soul
IS. We believe that all men are
bound to sustain and uphold the res
pective governments in which they
reside, while protected in their in
herent and inalienable rights by the
laws Of such governments; and that
sedition and rebellion are unbecoming
every citizen thus protected, and
should be punished accordingly; and
that all governments have a right to
enact such laws as in their own judg- |
ment are best calculated TO secure the |
public interest at the same time, |
however, holding sacred the freedom |
of conscience.
IS. We believe that every man |
should be honored in his station:
rulers and magistrates as such, being /
placed for the protection of the inno- !
cent and the punishment of the |
guilty; and that to the laws, all men
owe respect and Difference, as with |
out them peace and harmony would !
be supplanted by anarchy and terror:
human laws being instituted for the !
express purpose of regulating our in |
terests as individuals and nations, be- !
tween man and man, the Divine laws |
given of heaven, prescribing rules on |
spiritual concerns, for faith and wor- |
ship, both to be answered by man to |
his Maker.
~ We believe that rulers, states !
and government have right, and are |
bound to enact laws for the protection !
