poor and needy. II church or

compassion against the widow or
phan and the poor, How dweIleth

ZION TO be answered Every church
small or large should collect mon
ey every Sunday for which to as
sist the worthy poor both of its
flock and the community. Mo t
churches feels they are exempt
from this Iespons bile duty il they
only pay their pastor and pay off
the debts OF their church, but il
is very sad mistake as Jesus has
said The poor you have always
as much as TO say, You have them
as your charge and you are respon-
sible to see that they do not suffer.
That church which fails to perform
its duty in making the needy feel
that they can find a friend when IN
a pennies condition has fallen
short Of its missions. The chief
duty OF a church is 10 save souls
and next 10 importance IS TO feed
the h, ngry and clothe the naked.

The Barre daily times. (Barre, Vt.) 1897-1959, 1921-04-22

To the uninitiated it looks as if
Germany were being besieged with a
multiplicity of proposals and demands
and ultimatums until she must be all
in a muddle over the exact status of
what the allies demand in the line
of reparations but no doubt the di-
rect communications to Germany from
the allies are far more explicit and
definite than the mass of information
that is being eabled to the United
States. 1t should be borne in mind
By the readers of American newspapers
that much of the so-called proposals
is not from official sources among the
allies but is put out as probable courses
of action by various prominent jour
mails in Paris and London. Matter
that is not plainly labeled as official
should not be given great deal of
credit.
The Barre daily times. (Barre, Vt.) 1897-1959, 1921-04-22

The Connecticut legislature has
passed law permitting baseball, foot
ball and classical concerts on Sunday
afternoons and it declined to require
license for rowing a boat, riding a
horse or driving an automobile on Sun
day. However, 1t might well have ac-
cepted a proposed amendment which
would have prohibited the playing of
baseball or football or a classical con
cert if the same "interfered with pub
lie worship" Undoubtedly, the amend.
ment would have been accepted had not
its sponsors over-reached in adding
that the indulgence would be prohib-
tied if it interfered with "the comfort
peace, or quiet of any person" Mani
testify, the latter proposed amendment
would have been too broad and would
have opened the way to many shades
of Interpretation, some of which might
have been oyerdrawn. The amendment
regarding interference with public
worship was reasonable enough.

The Mexican problem of the United
States seems to have subsidized since the
Harding Hughes regime came into con-
troll at Washington. Perhaps there is-
no connection between the subsistence
and the change of government, but it
is an odd coincidence that the events
should have come at about the same
time. Mexico is still having her inter
nal disorders, according to the conf
Dental reports submitted in Washing
ton; but those disorders have not fol-
lowed the previous course of boiling
over into the United States territory
or Of imposing any serious burden on
the government at Washington. The
prompt and decisive stand taken by
the Harding. Hughes regime in connec-
ton with the Costa Rican-P Panama dis
pute may have had its effect on the
Mexicans.

The diminishing influence of Senator
LaFollette of Wisconsin in the Senate
is revealed by the losing fight which
he waged against the confirmation OF
the appointment of another Wisconsin
man, Esch, for appointment to the in
terstate commerce commission. LaFol-
lette put forth the strenuous efforts
for which he was noted in the years
when he was power in governmental
circles and the best he could muster for
support was two Democratic votes,
Tramwell of Florida and Watson of
Georgia, besides his own vote, against
total of 81 votes in favor Of confr-
nation. LaFollette has outlived his
usefulness in the Senate, and the soon

Panama and Costa Rica, especially
the former, seem to mistake the pur-
pose of the United States in relation
to the Central American governments;
but Costa Rica, through its desire to
avoid war, is willing to accept the big
brother intervention proposed by the
government at Washington. It is one
important work for the United States
to perform, to impress the other Amer
lean republics with the consciousness of
our sincerity of purpose.
