 The survey embraced 831 farmer truck owners in nine states-Ilinois, Indiana, Missouri, Iowa, Kansas, Ne braska, Wisconsin, Minnesota and South Dakota-and the high spots dis closed by the inquiry are:

He was a curious instrument of such abstract justice He served fate BIS if it had sworn out police court warrant. As nemesis he was clown, or at least a beadle or a bailifT. The manner in which he served inevit- ability will appear. MT. Sidney's crime, 1 soon saw, whatever manner or kind of crime 1t had been, was one f unacceptable consequence.
 "A man named Dravada," said Mor- gan, after we had looked at each oth- CT in interrogative hostility for an in- stant, 'has come to our agency with a very strange tale. From what l learn of the things he and his disrepu- table attorney have done, I can see that they are heading directly into the penitentary. l understand that the lawyer Is dead and that all their schemes are closed. Dravada has come to our agency, and I have come directly to you. I want you to under stand our methods of doing business. They are honest. The paper Dravada carries about him says that crime has been committed Are you familiar with that paper?'
 .'I have seen what a blackmailing lawyer said was copy of sheet in the, possession of Dravada."
 "I am not much of a literary man" said Morgan, taking from a black leather case manuscript which he handed to me, "but I've read The Moonstone,' and this looks to me like n couple of chapters copied out of 1t. Probably you are familiar with The Moonstone'"
 q have read it several times"
 "Then what do you make of that manuscript?'
 I looked at several of the pages. The manuscript was a copy of part of 'The Moonstone."
 q am right, then" said Morgan. Moonshine' it had better be called. That's the manuscript the maid stole out of your man Jed's room and that Dravada took after the lawyer had been killed. Here's my reasoning maybe you will be interested This man Jed and this fellow Dravada worked for Mr. Sidney In Montevldeo. Diayada is thief; Jed isn't much letter. Dravada got one sheet of manuscript that had something to do with a concealed crime. Jed got the rest of the manuscript, so Dravada says. Dravada has been trying to make Jed go 50-50 He has been try ing to get the rest of the manuscript. He'll murder Jed yet.
 Now here's the way look at it: A man like Jed does not go to the trou- ble of copying a couple of chapters of The Moonshine' and planting the copy in his room just to devil des- perate fellow like Dravada. He does

To the Jews the Ark was the symbol

David determined to establish his
kingdom under the protection of Al
mighty God. He did wisely. He had
great prosperity. The nation grew by
leaps and bounds. The land promised
to Abraham was conquered-"from the
River of Egypt to the Euphrates." or
all the rulers of Israel David's admin
istration excelled.
Even Solomon with all his wisdom
did not rule the people as wisely as
his father David. This Is easily &C
counted for when we remember that
David relied upon God for wisdom,
and honored God in all his acts. He
was a great go-to-church man. Hear

Again, "a day in Thy courts is better

Would to God that all the rulers, in
every office in our beloved country,
would emulate David, in this regard.
No administration can be truly wise
without God is honored. 1.-THE nation
that forgets God will perish" "The
wicked shall be turned into hell and
all the nations that forget God" These
are Bible quotations. Rulers owe it to
the Nation they rule as we'll as to God
to be devout worshippers. Nothing
else that they can do will be so help
full to the nation they rule. The serv-
ice of God is a mark of the highest
patriotism. Religion cannot, be main
tanned without houses Of worship, and
sanctuaries are of no value without
worshippers. David the King, not only
called all the people to the place of
worship but he went himself and took
prominent part. This is what our rul-
ers should do. Then would our nation
stand on a firm foundation and we
would have nothing to fear.
