Church Has Failed to
Remake Human Nature,
Says Chicago Pastor

DIR. Curtis w. Reese OF Chicago.
speaking at the morning services OF
the First Unitarian church yester-
day, declared that human nature can
be changed and is being changed,
that the church has failed i'll its ct
forts to- remake human nature and
that it must, in the future, dedicate
itself to the reorganization of human
nature if it would be OF the service
to mankind that it should. 4
"Original human nature was a
bundle of unorganized impulses,
neither good nor bad" said DR..
Reese. "As human nature has prog
ressed these impulses have become
less elementary. For example, the
human impulse to flee from danger
has changed to an impulse to es-
cape by the most logical method,
"The violation of personality IS
The greatest crime to human nature.
The individual is sacred. That great
human Observation-Disclosures also
sacred.
"The greatest agent in the demo-
cratization of human nature is the
will of the man, not coercion. Edu-
cation, not repression, is the road to
progress. Heredity counts the least;
conscious building counts the most.
'In remaking human nature the
church has failed to understand the
effect of environment. Religion has
called for the absolute surrender of
will. The will of man should net
be surrendered either to God or man

channels OF the church, not broken

TO
Be SCENE OF BIG
SUFFRAGE FIGHT
Assembly Opens Tomorrow
And Organized Forces Plan
Battle on Three State
Issues.

Baton Rouge, La, May o.-The
general assembly of Louisiana which
opens tomorrow will have the op-
portunity to write history. Three
questions of paramount interest will
be placed before it.
First-Will Louisiana become the
36th necessary state to ratify the ma
tional woman suffrage amendment?
Second-Will horse racing be con-
tinued in .ouisiana, and if so, how?
Third-Will the $3,000,000 needed
by the state treasury be secured
through severance tax on national
resources or by direct taxation OF
the citizens of the state.
@ The suffrage fight promises to be
keen. Both sides are we'll organized
and both claim victory. The gov
ernor, John M. Parker, is for rati-
hcation and the following he has Sc
cured during the last two years is
admittedly large. But in Louisiana,
states rights are not easily forgotten
and that principle will rally many
staunch supporters.
LS0 ny tlC Oulg MCH buSl1cSS
league of New Orleans, dozens Of
organizations throughout the state
have adopted resolutions demanding
either that there be state racing
commission, a short season and pari
mutuel betting machines or that
racing be abolished by state legisla-
ton. The objections seem to be
-aised principally against operation
of handbooks in the cities and the
so-called "oralites" at the tracks at
Jefferson and the Fair grounds, New
Orleans. ..
The severance tax legislation is
not expected TO cause much opposi-
ton. 1t puts a 2 per cent tax on
every industry drawing from the
natural resources Of the state, oil,
gas, lumber, moss, salt, sulphur,
gravel, rosin, turpentine and few
other commodities. Altogether it is
estimated the taxes would total close
to the much needed $3,000,0O0.

FLOWERS WORN IN
OMAHA IN HONOR
OF MOTHERS DAY
Floral Shops Close Doors at
Noon When Supplies of
Flowers Gives Out.

Omaha yesterday turned its atten-
ton to that most loving, tender,
brave, self-sacrificing creation of
God--mother. 1t was Mothers
day." the one day in all the year
when mothers goodness, mothers
thoughtfulness, mothers never-fail-
ing love was not merely taken for
granted, but was lauded in press and
pulpit and in private home.
Mothers received kisses, boxes of
flowers, words of praise. Nearly all
ministers discoursed upon Mother"
the wonder, the physical and spirit
ual creator and preserver of the hu-
man race.
Carnations were worn in the but
tonholes by many. Many others, OBJ
serving the unprecedented heights
to which prices had been boosted
by the floral profiteers, determined
wisely that they could think of and
honor their mothers as we'll without
paying so cents for a carnation with
which to do it. .
One florist said Sunday morning.
that carnations were $3.50 dozen.
but he was sold out. Another closed
his shop before noon and put
sign on the door, "Flowers all sold
.out-sorry."
The day was observed at Fort
Omaha, where in the morning Miss
Florence Lake, Social hostess, as
sisted by Red Cross girls, gave
musicale in the assembly hut and
distributed carnations to the men,
who then wrote letters to their
mothers.
At the House of Hope. City Mis-
sion and other institutions there
were also special observations of

BLUFFS HUSBAND
IS FATALLY SHOT
BY ANGRY Wife
John Lowe, Negro, Wounded
Three Times by Woman
After Attempt to Keep
Her at Home.

John lowe, 4S years old, negro,
was shot and fatally wounded Sat-
urday night by his wife, Matte
Lowe, colored, at their home 1901
Avenue d, Council Bluffs.
Lowe was removed to the Emer-
gency hospital where physicians
said he could live but few hours.
Three bullets entered his body, all
taking effect in the abdomen. Mrs.
Lowe was arrested by the police
and placed in Jail charged with at
tempted murder.
The shooting followed an argu-
ment and alteration in which Lowe
attempted to compel his wife to re-
main at home instead of going to
town. When he struck at her she
took .48 Colt revolver from a
dressing table and fired three times.
The revolver was one which Mrs.
Loves SOP, George, had used while
a soldier overseas and which he had
sent home to his mother as pres
