coastina in Wake Of Boat.

Passengers on one of the Hudson riv-
err ferries in New York were treated
In the summer of 1919 to the odd spec
tacle of a canoe sailing in their wake.
all the way across the river, without
any means of propulsion. What made
the canoe go was question that puz-
zled many. The more observant no.
ticed that the canoe did not keep to the
smooth water directly aft the ferry
boat, but rode off to one side, in the
rough waves that the paddle wheels
kicked up. They also noticed that the
canoe did not hug the ferryboat close,
and that often it pursued It's mysteri-
Gus course at q considerable distance

The most elaborate and the largest

map of the city of London, which was
some twenty years in the making, and
which Is more than thirty feet wide
and twenty feet from top to bottom.
The map is Of the metropolitan dis
trict of London, embracing an area of
lis square miles, and every house,
shop and piece of property in that
area is shown. Nearly 10000 separate
estates are listed.
Some curious and interesting facts
about London landlords are shown by
the great map. The wealthiest estate
is that of the duke of Westminster,
400 acres. with rent roll of $15,6600G,-
600 per year. This is not by any means
the largest estate in London however.

In Europe 100000 of people are
starving, babies are crying in vain to
dying mothers for food which cannot
be had. Suffering beyond our power
to comprehend rests like a mighty
pail over millions of homes. In Amer
lea we are piling up wealth greater
than the world ever knew. We already
have one-third of the worlds accu-
mulated wealth. We are living in riot
Gus luxury.
Out of Europe's awful war we reap
ed billions of wealth. We are rich be-
yond all the dreams of the past, and
vet our contributions to aid the suffer
ngs of Europe have been almost in
finitesimally small. We have been
niggardly in our gifts, but we have
sold our products of farm and factory
at enormous profits. Surely, it is true
that unto whom much has been given
of him shall much be required" I'm
less America opens wide it's heart and
ifs purse and pours it's wealth into
srccoring the suffering. feeding the
starving and ministering to the sick,
on scale commensurate with our
wealth, we will deserve the condemna-
ton of Almighty God, and the loss of
all our wealth and power.
Congress should more than match
| President Wilson's call for Europe's
help. Even $15O,OOO,OOO is beggard-
| ly sum for so vast task. Give it we
should do. and reverently thank God
for the privilege of thus serving hu-
mainly. If we fail we shall prove our
serves unworthy of the worlds re-
snect and unworthy of the wealth God
has given unto US.
America needs to have it's heart
touched. It needs to learn sacrifice
that it may serve and save others.
Against our vast wealth contrast
TIE awful poverty of much of Europe
Despite all the calls for money anc
all our taxes. despite all the claims OF
tbs DOOR at home, America could vel
afford to give half a billion or ever
more to feed and clothe the starving
and naked in Europe. and then bow
is head in shame that it has done 81
little.
Every man who opposes giving hell
quickly and in large measure is falls
to humanity and also to God Himself
Through time and eternity he woulC
deserve to have photographed upol
,, his undying memory the outstretcheC
