Hence, in our wars with the me-
tropolis we were also conscious that
we were fighting against the mighty
power Of Rome.
Naturally, religion, or better in
stitutionalized religion, became u
faith for women alone, and | must
say that our real devout women
were those who because Of their adj
vanced years had very little TO ex-
pect from this world and much 10
hope from the next.
This feeling of indifference for
enything which savoured of church
or priest leld TO very sad results. A
large number Of our people lived
unaware of final judgment and Of
future life; therefore, it was fool
ish not TO enjoy life while we lived.
| need not dwell upon the harvest
reaped from this mental attitude.
| must not give the impression,
however, that we Cubans are not
religious by nature, but rather that
our very nature was not spiritually
fed by the institutional church. We
were not given the Bible. The
simple story of the Gospel was not
told the people and Jesus, the
brother, the friend and the Savior
was not the abiding companion in
our daily experiences.
To these people came the mis-
sionaries from America soon after
1898. Some were Methodist, some
were Presbyterians, some Friends
and some were Baptists, but all
brought with them the Bible and
preached Christ in a language that
we could understand.

welcome TO these disciples Of the

began to circulate the story that tht
United States had sent us preachers

the new corners, yet they persisted
in their noble mission. They bull

today they are gathering the fruit
Of their untiring efforts.

Not Out OF. But Into

When prohibition is enacted the
brewers do not go out Of business,
they go into business. We voted
our saloons closed in Oregon. One
great brewery is going to manu-
facture furniture. Heretofore We
have raised the lumber in Oregon,
shipped il 10 Michigan, and bought
our furniture from there at a third
more than il ought to cost us. An
other brewery is going to become a
shoe factory. For seventy years
Orgeonians have purchased their
shoes in Boston, although we raise
the hides and everything needed for
shoes in Oregon. The convention OF
those two breweries into a fur
niture factory and a shoe factory
will cause them 10 employ from
twelve 10 sixteen times as many
men as they formerly employed, ana
incidentally the Western price on
shoes and furniture will be reduced
possibly by third.

Third Degree Features
 Alice Joyce at Alcazar

,aIn the apartment at the time in a drunken stupor, is Howard, who also is seeking money, the return of loan. Underwood kills himself and the po- lice find Howard wandering about the apartment and accuses hisn of the mur der. In his collage days he had been the subject of mesmeric tests, and the police by similar methods force from him a confession that he killed Under wood.
 Denied aid from his father Annie in- duces his fathers lawyer to take up his case. Mrs. Jeffries, Sr., fearful of in terfering lest she is exposed, is silent about the letter that Underwood wrote, but she finally produces it. It clears Howard by showing that his chum had taken his own life, but it does not dis close the woman who visited his apart ment the night of the tragedy.
 Then it is that Annie shows the mo- bility of her love and character. Hav- ing freed her husband, she is ready to blacken her own name by admitting that she visited Underwood's apart ment that night to shield her mother in-law because she had come to tlte as- sistance of Howard.
