VOTERS ENCOUNTER NO
DIFFICULTY CHOOSING
BETWEEN CANDIDATES

Washington.-The American people
are carefully making a close compari-
son right now between Senator Hard
ing and Governor Cox. The choice be-
tween these two men and the policies
they represent Is not difficult one
and the writer honestly believes the
American people have their minds
made up and are ready to vote.
Senator Harding and Governor Cox
are almost Numerically opposed to
each other in everything. Senator
Harding stands for Americanism and
Governor Cox espouses International
ism. Harding is cautious about what
kind of a league he and his party goes
into while Cox wants to wade right
into the European league as proposed
by President Wilson.
Senator Harding is careful, delib-
crate, dlgnified, sincere, serious and
constructive, while Governor Cox is
crafty, quick to seize upon any kind
of an artifice; he Is bombastic and
impulsiye.
Senator Harding has been life
time accommodating a moderate fortune
while, Governor Cox jumped into the
multimillionaire class In few years.
Harding lives modestly and quietly In
an unostentatious manner while Gov
ernor Cox lives in luxury on a large
estate in a home costing half a mil
lion dollars.

Senator Harding, observation leads
us TO believe, has created strong
impression Of earnestness, sincerity
and high sense of duty. His utter
snces are marked by studied mod

opinion, and has made no extrava-
CANT promises OF millennium TO be
created by pro :lsmatlon; he seeks
rather to express the national spirit
than to impose doctrine Of political

< SUNDAY SERMON

The subject which Duane Earl Cart CT chose for his Sunday sermon was Gods estimate of humanity as seen in the Bible" The scripture lesson was :ead from the first chapter of Johns gospel. John was the mystic among the gospel writers and shows evident trsres of Greek thought possibly de- .r,e.i from Philo, HelleniStic Jew bo,u about 20 B. C. The text may be fouad in the first chapter of Pauls letter to the Ephesians which in a n'cde:n version reads as follows: "He chose us as His own in Christ before the creation of the world, that we -n;ght be holy and without blemish in his presence For he pre-destined us to be adopted by Himself as sons through Jesus Christ"
 eve speak of the brotherhood of man." said Rev. Carter, "but when we look back over the history of the world and note how mans inhumanity to man has caused countless thousands to mourn, we see that the true broth erhood of man has not been carried out in practice. By dwelling upon this unfavorable view We are apt to be- come discouraged. It is necessary, therefore, to go back to Gods idea of man ana his destiny. The inspired text says that God chose us as his own be- . fore the creation of the world; that man, in order to come up to Gods esti- mate of him, must choose to do right and act justly, must of his own free will accept the conditions whereby he may become holy and without blemish clean in body, mind and spirit, and >thus pass from the class of Gods creatures, because created by him, in- to the class of Gods true and loyal children imbued with the spirit of Christ. Thus, and thus only, can the brotherhood of man be established and Gods estimate of humanity be brought to fruition."
