Revelation 81 :1-14 Is the passage
Of Scripture selected for devotional
reading. Instead of attempting to re-
view the lessons of the quarter II
would be of great interest and profit
to enter into detailed study Of this
Scripture. The following outline may
be helpful. /. The New Heaven and
the New Earth (vv. 1, %; II. The New
People wv. 3-8): III. The New Jeru-
salem wv. 914).
Another way would be to assign the
Golden Texts to different members of
the class asking them to give the part
of the particular lesson which illus
trates the teachings Of the text.
Still another way would be to sum-
Marie the different Scripture pass
ages giving the leading lessons of
each The following is given by way
Of suggestion:
I. The believers supreme obliga-
tion is to present himself as living
sacrifice to God. The grand reason
for so doing is that he has received
the mercles of God. The one so yield
ed will love his fellow believer sin
cerely.
II. The believers body Is Gods
property--the temple of the Holy
Ghost therefore we are under solemn
obligation to use 1t for His glory.
III. Since God the Father and
Jesus Christ work, 1t Is incumbent
upon all to work, and the man who
will not work should not eat.
w. God hates the greed that moves
men to dishonest methods in order to
get rich. His judgment shall fall upon
such.
v. True education will lead one to
Christ. The one only book which tells
about him is the Bible. No one can
call himself educated who Is ignorant
Of the Bible.
vi. God rested when His work of
creation was done. On this basis He
has established the law of labor and
rest. The obligation to cease from la
Dor Is that one may remember God.
WI The church is an organism as
the human body. In order that there
may be real helpful cooperation there
must be membership In that body.
VIII. Jesus should be welcomed as
T a guest into every home. He is an ex-
ample of an obedient son In the home.
TX. The most important question is
not "Who is my neighbour" but ITO
whom can I be neighbour Being
q neighbor is seeing those about who
need help and rendering such help in
loving sympathy.
X. The Christian is a citizen as well
as church member. Intelligent Chris
tians will show proper loyalty to the
state.
XII. When Christ shall reign as
King there shall be peace all over the
world between animals and men. The
supreme business Of the believer in
this dispensation is to preach the Cos
pei to all the world as witness.
XII. Jesus came and preached the
gospel to the poor, but shall come
again to Judge the world and reign as
King.

THAT TWENTY BILLION

That the payment Of twenty billion gold marks
by the Allies from Germany before May 1 was
Intended as a special payment, for which special provision
bad been made, is clear from the reading of Article 235
Article 235-In order to enable the Allied and
Associated Powers to proceed at once to the restor-
alton of their industrial and economic life. pending
the full determination of their. claims, Germany shall
pay in such installnaents and in such manner {whe-
thor in gold, commodities, ships. securities or other
wfse) as the Reparation Commission may fix, during :.
1919. 1870 and the first four months of 1921, the
equivalent Of 10000, 600, 900 gold marks. Out Of this
sum the expenses of the armies Of occupation sub
sequent TO the Arrnistice of November II, 1918, shall
first be met, and such supplies OF food and raw ma
terials Is may be judged by the GovArnnents of the
Principal Allied and Associated Powers to be essen,
til to enable Germany to meet her obligations for
reparation may also. with the approval of the said
Governments. be paid for out Of the above sum. The
balance shall be reckoned towards liquidation Of the
amounts due for reparation. Germany shall further
deposit bonds rs prescribed in paragraph IL tc) Of
Annex II hereto.
It was the obvious intent that the payment of this
SUM should be made from time to time. the whole to be
by May l Of this year, and that it was intended
in the first place to Offset the expenses of the Allies in
maintaining their armies Of occupation and otherwise
conducting their negotiations with the German govern
ment with reference to the subject Of Preparations.
Germany declares that this full sum has already
ben paid. The Allied reject that contention as summary
as they rejected the counter proposals placed before the
London conference. Thy hold such a claim to be too
absurd to be given consideration. According to the treaty
terms the Germans are entitled to be credited with any
OF the twenty billion remaining after the pre-
iimipary costs for which it was levied have been pro-
v1ded for. such excess to be applied on the future pay
mepts assessed against them in the general PREPARATIONS

MR. HAYS

cn1n. reading for the .poilsmen, heartsnins read
ing for everybody ese, is Postmaster General Hays
declaration Of his intentions in the mana cement Of his
department. His purposes are:
First. to make such rectihcatlons as in all decen-
ey and fairness must be made to assure a square deal:
secondly. to strengthen and brosden the civil service
At every point wherever possible to the end that merit
may govern; thirdly, with absolute fidelity to put the
entire postal service upon a purely business bass,
so sound and 80 serytceable that no political party
will ever again dare attempt to ignore or evade it
ultimately.
Mr.. H0s promises to run the imnsnse business
over which he preetdes, and which does business with
practically every resident Of the United States, on business
principles, to try to satisfy its multitude of customers, to
treat it's employees fairly. to make merit without regard
to politics the test Of entrance or promotion. That ia the

there should be no more room for politics or political
considerations In the Post Once Department than there
is In . big shoe factory or packing house. It Is hard
work to dnn this commonplace into the political head,
but ultimately It must penetrate. Mr.. Hay's prospectus
Is untmpeschaoie. He can depend upon the goodwill Of
the majority Of bnth parties in his efforts to put it into
practice. The more be succeeds, the better he Will please

LEGALITY But ONE ELEMENT

The owner of a i've thousand dollar property applies
for a ten thousand dollar loan on it. He is known to be
shiftiess and extravasant. He has piled up a big float
ing indebtedness, and he Is notorious for negligence in
meeting his bills: Will he get the>loan? He will not.
He can demonstrate that the loan is a perfectly
demonstrate by abstracts dating back to tie beginning
Of time. There is no prior claim against the property,
no lien Of any kind. The mortgage which he is prepared
to execute will be regular in form, and will comply with
every legal requirement There Is not a flaw anywhere
IN the Legality of the transaction, and yet he will not get
the money. Everyone knows that the property Is not
worth the Ahee Of the proposed mortgage. and that the
applicant himself is not worth anything.
Our present state administration has not been able
to market bonds. not because OF ilegality Of the issue,
but because Of the reputation Of the administration itself
are offered on a basis which makes them unattraetsve to
the prudent buyer, but the reputation of the people
handling them is the thing that has e1ectually taken
them of the market.
Legality Is but one element in the desirability Of
bonds. Once upon a time the state Of South Carolina
issued = block Of bonds which the Eate authorities, for
reasons Of their own. later declined to pay. In order to
avod, payment it WAS alleged at first that the bonds were
illegal. After much litigation the bonds were declared
to be perfectly valid, and still they were not paid. The
state rested ON its right as a sovereign power to pay its
Of South Dakota to accept some of these bonds as a gift.
One state can sue another, and South Dakota sued. There
was moro litigation. and judgment was rendered against
South Dakota. Whether payment has been made or
not IL not now recalled. The important point cis that the
holders Of legal bonds did not receive their money until
after yeav Of waiting and litigation because the issuing
state was not interested in keeping its credit good. And
the record which has been made in this state during the
past SIX years is not one to inspire confidence.
Grand Forks herald. [volume] (Grand Forks, N.D.) 1916-1955, 1921-03-29
THE SALE or n

Either the present state administration will be able
to sell the states industrial bonds or it will not. There
are interesting possibilities either way. That the effort
to sell bonds will be continued is taken as a matter Of
course. Activity in this direction appears to have been
discontinued for the time being, but this is due to the
rebuhs which have been met. Fresh effort will be put
forth as soon as new plans can be devised.
Suppose that these efforts fail, as the preceding
ones have failed. Past failure has been due to the un-
savory record of the administration rather than to ques-
tions as to the legal validity of the bonds. If the ad-
ministration fails to get rid of it's bonds it will have
less money to handle than if it were able to sell them.
But it will still have the handling of two years state
taxes, and of all the funds. principal and interest, be-
longing to the public institutions. of the state. 1t will
have millions to play with, and what it will do with
those millions has been shown by its behavior in the
past
Still further, while the bosses will have millions
to handle, those millions will be inadequate for their
purposes. Failure to soil bonds. and thus to replanish
their funds for political propaganda, will drive them to
new courses of desperation. Not only will there be
greater incentive to misaapproprtate the public funds on
hand, but these men will be driven to the adoption of
new 'expedients for the purpose of raising money from
private sources in order to keep their political machine
running.
Suppose that Mr.. Lemke and his associates are sue
cesstul in finding buyers for the states bonds. That
will ease the situation materially. There will be, moro
money with which to recompenae hungry political work
ers; more money to distribute among favored banks on
unsound collateral: more money with which to con-
tinue the operation Of political newspapers; more money
to throw right and. left for the prosecution Of the bold
est political game that has ever been played In America.
That will mean that during the next two years or
less the people Of North Dakota will be saddled with an
tntoaerable burden Of which they cannot rid themselves
for a generation. They will be kept paying principal
and interest OF bonds the proceeds of which will have
been squandered right and left.
II the bonds are not sold a greater proportion Of the
nooay available from other sources will be infused If
they are sold. there will be a greater sum available for
Improper PURPOSES In either event the people will pay
