TRUE DEMOCRACY ID BE SHOWN
 BY AMERICA

The choir in the Methodist chwcA Was assisted last evening by Dr, E. |. Wilson. of Spokane, Wash. Dr. Cha Nearing. of Portland. Oregon Mir. Ellsworth and Mrs. Bailey. The Solo iStS Dr. Wilson and Dr. Nearing were especially enjoyed, ami the chorus was exceptionally good. The church music last evening was rare treat to the people of Seward.
 There was congregation of about fifty people. and Rev. Cook felt the inspiration of the occasion and gave a fine talk on the subject. America an | Her World Responsibility" The Scrip tme reading was from the l7th chap tor of the book of Acts. and the text from the 18th verse: And hath mace of one blood all nations of men 10 dwell on all the face of the earth"
 The chapter from which the text was taken contains the account oc Paul'S visit to Athens and his very diplomatic address to the Athcnians. wherein he said to quote the para phrase Of recent writer; "Men of Athens, want to congratulate you on having such wonderful line of relig' ions. For as passed through your city | perceived that you not only had al ,arS erected to all the known gods but that you had erected one inscribed 'To The Unknown God".
 "Now it's a curious coincidence that the very God whom you have been worShiping without knowing Him. iS the very God represent
 Rev. Cook said that his text at this time was the one from which he had spoken upon the Sunday before tn" Fourth of July two years ago. "Thcn every energy was being bent toward sending our boys and men to France, and the Red Cross and other organiza- tions were busy preparing for the com fort og those same men and boys, while the children and men and women who could be of service at home were busy in war gardens"
 "Today." said Rev. Cook "the trea' tv of peace has been signed and the great and cruel war is at an end and America the Government of the Un- ited States, has become the leader in democracy for the world. It behooves the United States to show democ- racy that is safe for the world. There is a statement recently publuished 70 the effect that there are a million and a half native born white and two and a quarter million native born colored citizens of America. who can neither read nor write.
 While it is a time of rejoicing Y is also a time for all good citizens to be seriously thoughtful and for each individual to contribute what he can to the welfare of the community and thus let the genuine democratic in- fluence reach out until it has per meated the entire land"
