on our citizenship. Our nation in it's
origin, in all it's history, in it's laws,
is not only religious but Christian.
Our political system is only form of
applied Christianity. It is the Ser

form. Partisan and demagogues
may be misusing our institutions and

laws represent an attempt to organize
Christianity in the interest of each
citizen. Despite the pessimist, the
American constitution and the Sermon

for all equal rights, liberty and the
pursuit of happiness. Today let us be
optimists. We are Americans and
the patriotism of Washington and
Webster and Lincoln should be ours.
We are Christians and the gentleness

President-elect to Begin Series
of Conferences Calculated to
Settle Selections.
HARDING A BUSY man
Hughes Choice For Secretary Of State
Viewed as certain-chas. Dawes
and J. D. Davis Considered for
Cabinet Portfolios.

St. Augustine, Fla.-While Presi-
dent-elect Harding was disposing of
another long list of miscellaneous ap.
pointments, it become known that in
the near future he would begin series
Of conferences calculated to bring to
head the whole question of cabinet
selections.
The names of three of those ex.
pected here within the next few days
attracted particular attention, be-
cause all of them are known to have
been under serious consideration for
cabinet places. They are Charles
Evans Hughes of New York; Charles
G. Dawes of Illinois, and ]: D. Davis
Of Pennsylvania. considered for the
portfolios of State, Treasury and La
Dor, respectively.

Hughes Choice Held Certain.

Mr.. Hughes is conceded by those
close to Mr.. Harding to be the Presl-
dent-elect's choice for Secretary Of
State, and the fact that he is COM
ing to Florida was accepted as one
more indication that he will get the
appointment.

who recently came into the lime light
by a spectacular denunciation Of the
Republican congressional committees
Investigation of the conduct Of the
war IL more of an enigma. It was I'M
dersrood in December that he was
foremost in Mr.. Harding's mind for
the Treasury position, but in recent
weeks the friends of other aspirants
have become so active as to becloud
the situation.
Mr.. Dawes is visiting relatives in
Florida, and it is pointed out that it
would be only natural for him to call
and pay his respects to the leader Of
his party.
No announcement has been made
of formal appointment for Mr.. Davis,
but he is expected to be in st. Angus
tine within few days. It is under
stood that Mr.. Harding has heard
t1attering reports of his capability, but
desired closer personal acquaintance
before reaching decision.

NAVY BALLOONISTS
LIKELY TO REACH
RAIL HEAD TODAY
Correspondents Train Ready
to Dash to Meet Them
When Flash Comes.

CoCHRANE, Ont. Jan 6.-News-
paper correspondents here are hndiag
IL as dificult to locate TIA three
American Naval balloonists on land
as 1t was in the air before they de.
scended on the icy shores Of Hudson
Bay.
The correspondents, rushing here
from the United States, prepared to
rush north to meet the returning
avlatOH, have found themselves
puzzled as 70 which trail to select. II
they pick the wrong trek, they are
likely to pass the airmen travelling
south, whereas IL they remain at
Cochrane, on the Trans Con tinendal
Railway through which the Ameri-
cans ultimately must pass, several
days may elaPse before they get the
full story OF the aerial adventure.
So at present the newspaper men
are camping in their special train,
uncertain whether 30 order It to
Matttce, where the aeronauts may
come out Of the wilds by following
the Mlssinaibi River or stay in this
town, into which runs the Abitibi
Trail TO Moose Factory.
Current opinion to-day was that
before nfghtfan word would be re-
ceived that the aviators had reached
some rail head.
The correspondents also are faced
with the possibility that because Of
weather conditions, the Redskins
guiding the Americans may take a
branch tail and emerge, not at Mat
tice or Cochrane, but at any one OF
half dozen other stations on the
railway line. Tho newspaper special
is being held with steam up, ready
to dash to the scene whenever the
flash is received that the auators
have finished their long tramp.
