LACKED ORDINARY
POLITENESS.

In order to emphasize the malig-
nancy of the hatred of Woodrow Will
son 1t IS only necessary to recall that
the senate, under the leadership of
the notorious Lodge, never even ex-
pressed sympathy for the President
of the United States when he was so
sorely stricken while in the perform
ance of his duties as the chief execu-
tive Of the greatest civilized nation
on the globe.-Dalton Citizen.
And yet Lodge, up to few years
ago, was considered one of the most
refined and cultured men in the SEN
ate, which reputation, however, he
lost in his own state, Massachusetts,
even before he opened his war on
Wilson.

DUE TO WoRsHIPPINc
MANY FALSE GODS.

Fifteen banks in North Dakota
have gone to the wall because of de-
pleted reserves, due to the fact that
producers will not sell pork and grain
at prevailing prices, which are less
than the cost of production. And
with each bank that closes there are
hundreds of men forced into bank
ruptcy. and SO il goes Fortunate for
this section that we are not depend

our memory is not in error, she is a
pioneer in the so-called league idea
of government, which is a sort of
dressed-up affair for state socialism.

been through the motion picture
whose power for good is as great as
its power for harm. 1t is destined to
become more and more a powerful
influence in the cause of righteous
ness.
That no motion picture can take
the place of a minister is self-evident.
However, so great is the need that
an international church film organiza-
ton has been formed which furnishes
three types of reels weekly at reason
able rates. Of these, one is for Sun
day-school, one for night service, and
one for a community program for
the week.
For Sunday, such subjects as"Dav-
id and Goliath" The Story of Sam
uel," "The Ninety and Nine" and
"The Lord is My Shepherd" are
treated interestingly and reverently.
With them go the hymns to be sung,
in large type. The Sunday-school
reels are mostly missionary stories
and the week day ones are whole
some drama, comedy, travelogs and
education. Nor can the talking ma
chine and the record of church music
be neglected in communities where
musicians are scarce.
If the motion picture can be used
by travelling statesmen, by teachers to
illustrate a lesson, by doctors to
visualize an operation, surely it can
be used to show current events to
the boy from the farm or help the
whole family in its religious life

Among the important developments
of the day was the fact that the Car
rama garrison at Vera Cruz had re-
volted, according to news received

stated that the rebels. after revolving,

velopment was the announcement of
General Pablo Gonzales that his re-
volt was independent of the Sonora
revolution, and that he would not sup
port the revolution, but would operate
his armed force on his own account
and to attain purposes distinct from
those aimed at by the revolutionists.
