FAITH.

[ find it very difficult to decide where to commence these articles, but as I am writing them to increase your faith I suppose that can do no better than to commence with the word faith, yet when l commence quoting Scripture there seems to me to be no beginning nor ending to it and that one sentence of it calls for all the rest to convey a correct mean ing. It is we'll called the word of God, for if it is anything 1t is only one complete word and person needs to understand 1t all thoroughly to know how to please God.
 The meaning of the word faith is knowledge or wisdom. Paul under took to make the meaning of this word so plain in Hebrews XI that he took whole chapter to explain it and, after reading that, if we refuse to understand it, we deserve to be lost. He commences this chapter thus: Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things no seen" Evidence is proof or knowledge of certain things pre- sented by people, who know of that thing. Evidence means knowledge or wisdom But we see by the above quotation it is more than that, it is the substance itself of the things we hope for In other words, it is the thing we hope for and the thing itself we are seeking.
 In the second verse Paul tells us it was by faith God created the world. In Proverbs we are told God created the world by wisdom. Which is more proof that faith and wisdom are words of the same meaning used in the Scripture interchangeably to describe the same act.
 In another place we are told Faith cometh by hearing and hearing by the Word of God" That is the way children learn knowledge and wis dom, by hearing, reading, and I will add, mostly by experience, for as we grow older and wiser we learn that all We hear is not knowledge and we know we do not know thing until we have seen or experienced it.
 Without faith it is impossible to please God. Paul tells us in the sixth verse of this same chapter.
 eff you lack wisdom" James says, Ito ask in faith nothing wavering," and you will receive it, but if you waver or doubt you will receive noth- ing James, 1:5-7 So you see in commencing with the word faith I have started out just like Paul and James did
 Christ also has attached great i'm. portance to this word. In one place He said. If you have faith like unto a grain of mustard seed you can say unto yon mountain be ye removed and cast into the sea and it will be done.' That is if you only have the least possible amount of faith and use that faith it w@ continne to grow as does the mustard seed, until you will have all the faith you need even enough to move mountains by the mere word of command.
 Christ, in Matthew 12:3-33, says The kingdom of heaven is like unto : mustard seed which a man took anC sowed in his field: which indeed is

the least of all seed; but when it is grown, it is the greatest among herbs, and becometh tree, so that the birds of the air come and lodge in the branches thereof" This illus trates how little faith will grow into the greatest thing in all the world if you will only use the little first given you.
 Christ, in healing the eenturion's servant, made plain the meaning of the word faith in Matthew S:6-10, Lord, my servant lieth at home sick of the palsy, grievously tormented. And Jesus sayeth unto him, I will come and heal him. The centurion answered and said, Lord, I am not worthy that thou shouldst come un der my roof: but speak the word only, and my servant shall be healed. For I am a man of authority, having soldiers under me, and I say unto this man go, and he goeth: and to another, come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth it."
 When Jesus heard it, he mar yeled and said unto them that followed, "Verily, I say unto you, II have not found so great faith, no, not in Isreal" This passage is very important, not only for it's explanation of the word faith, but also because it teaches how to heal and work miracles. Jesus healed not, but he commanded the angels to heal and work the miracles which He did and the centurion was the only person Jesus had found who knew this, so Jesus marveled at the great knowledge of His methods of healing and working possessed by the cen turion which He called faith, which proves plainly that Jesus used the word faith for knowledge.
 Now if we will always bear in mind the fact that the word faith as used in the Scriptures means knowledge or wisdom we will have learned the most important word in the Bible, and we will have faith as a grain of mustard seed Then if we will use that faith it will grow as the grain of mustard seed into the greatest thing in all the world The only way to keep this seed growing is to do all we learn. When we learn thing and do not do that thing right then our tender young plant will cease grow ing, and if we continue to refuse to do that thing the plant will wither and die. But if, when we learn a thing we do that thing then we will learn another and another just as long as we continue doing until we have learned all.
 We learn:
 Faith cometh by hearing.
 Hearing by the Word of God
 Without faith it is impossible to please God.
 And by faith we are saved.
 To understand above substitute the l word knowledge for faith and read:
 Knowledge cometh. by hearing.
 Without knowledge it is impossible to please God.
 And by knowledge we are saved.
 If you are the servant of God how could you obey Him without knowing His commands. How could your owr } servant obey you without he knew

strange ways. When President-elect
Harding delivered :. his acceptance

haps it is just little too soon to say
that "Normalcy" is good English.

about the condition in which the street
railways of the country have been
placed by the changed value of money
and its purchasing powers, and the
inability of the lines to operate under
the fares fixed in their franchises, that
it is interesting to have clear defin-
alton of the question, especially when
it is made to clarity the understanding
among business organizations in the
United States. The United States
Chamber of Commerce asserts that
every phase of the life of COM
munity is affected by the success or
failure of its traction lines in pro-
viding service which is indispensi-
Bile to the public. Careful regulation
joined with concern for the busines IS
stability and success of traction lines
should prevail in each city of the
country. Adequacy of service at the
lowest rate compatible with continued
efficiency is the paramount consider
alton from the public view point OF
view, and neither factor can be sac
rificed to the other without public
detriment."

Normally.

Language is regarded as q fixture
by the average person, undertaking
and, in these days of the printing press
and reading craze, almost unalter-
able. Good English is good English
the world over. And yet the English
language is living, growing thing,
increasing in expressiseness and usa-
bleness every day.
The war created many new words,
words that before 1914 were unheard
and unknown. Yet in the space of a
few short years these words have be-
come familiar to millions and are in
daily use. They are good English
because the best authorities on Eng
lish use them. After all, this is the
final court of appeal so far as correct
English 10 concerned.

language grow. New inventions add

country's transportation system has
been placed in a critical position by
conditions over which operating COM

the public had generally made no
adequate provision" The committee
then proceeds to define methods of
a corrective nature. These remedies
have in turn been submitted to local
boards of trade and chambers of COM
merce, and the referendum will help
to formulate means of relief for local
transportation in all parts of the coun-
try in accordance with the suggestions
that will have general applicability.

The present referendum of the

Paving the Way.

Whatever may be the outcome of
the deflated prices for farm products,
one thing is certain. Out of the pres
ent situation will grow some meas
ures for the preservation of farm pro-
duct prices at such a mark that the
farmer of the future will be assured,
not only living wage for his long
hours Of hard work, but, in addition,
a reasonable return on the money he
has invested in his land and in his
business. 1t was only during the
years of the war that the farmer re-
ceived prices for his crops that gave
him these things. Never again will
the American farmer be content with
less than. his just portion; that is, 4
reasonable labor income and a just
return on his investment. Too long
has he been working for bare livli-
hood.
Not all farmers have suffered from
the discrimination that the world has
inflicted upon them. But the average
American tiller of the soil has spent
his life at hard labor to feed the
world and found, in his closing years,
that he was an actual dependent upon
his children. Instances where farmers
have iamassed competence have, been
the exception. not the rule.
Officials of the federal reserve sys-
tenn emphatically assert that farmers
are not being Disseminated against in
the matter of the extension of credits.
And that probably is right. There is
no money available for anybody. But
But determinedly working for defla-
ton, those directing the federal re-
serve system have hurt the farmer
more than anyone else. y
What is to be done to prevent q
recurrence Of this situation? Certain
ly Socialism, as promulgated through
the Nonpartisan league, won't help
because America will never permit
any political organization to control
this government whose entire motive
is the advancement of single class
of its citizenry to the expense of all
others. Liberty has no place for class
legislation.

THE INITIATIVE AND
REFERENDUM.

We have heard a good deal in politi-
cal life. about the initiative and refer
endum, but there has not been very
much concerning it published with re-
gard to economic affairs of the coun-
try. Nevertheless it is quite probable
that more real progress has been
made in this direction in the industrial
than in the political world. This is
illustrated by the fact that the Cham
Der of Commerce of the United States
has just submitted referendum number
50 to the local business organizations
throughout the country. which will
vote upon the report of the commit
tee on public utilities Of the National
