NECESSITY Of TRUE
VISION SUBJECT Of
LOCAL MINISTER'S TALK
Rev. Gresham of the Christi
an Church Spoke to an
Interested Congregation.

(Synopsis of sermon by W. A.
Gresham, at the First Christian
Church, Sunday evening, on the sub
ject The Necessity Of True Wis
ion Text--Proy 29:1S, where
there is no vision, the people perish.")
a true vision is necessary in the
building Of character. The ideals
which constitute such vision must ap-
peal to the will The climatic aim in
all of Jesus teachings was to move the
will to act. For example, He who
heareth these words of Mine and do
eth them" "Whosoever will, may
come. IF any man willeth to do His
will. The hearers of Demosthenes
had their will moved to action when
after hearing him they declared, Let
us 30 fight Philip" Likewise. the
true aim of every sermon is to move
the will of the hearer to act upon the
message presented.
4 true vision is necessary also. in
enriching life. SefIshness results
from a lack of vision. Things near
are magnified to paramount import
ance when we lack comprehensive
view. For example. if | say that bap-
tism is the most important of New
Testament teachings. 1 am going be-
yond what the Scriptures warrant. as
much so as if [ minimized it by declar-
ing it less important than any other
command. Ezekiel's statement, 81
sat where they sat" is one full of
meaning Let the teacher sit where
the pupil sits and see how imperfectly
she understands the pupil--for truly
"A pupil need not become a teacher in
order to know what a good teacher is.
Likewise, let the parent sit where the
child is in order to see how the child's
view may connect best. with the par
cnt's idea In like spirit, the preacher
should sit where his congregation sits
and listen to his own sermon and see
how he likes it.
Because Jesus knew all men and
what was in man, He could sit where
Nicodemus sat and direct him into
loftier thinking. He could sit with
the woman at Jacobs well and enable
her to see herself as God saw her and
draw from her heart the confession
that He was the Messiah. He could
sit with the sinner in the multitude
and from the viewpoint of the sinner
lead his mind up to the mind of Christ
Such is the true art Of teaching today

stead of being coldly received in Or

confers with the leaders in Congress

message he consulted the members
of the Committee on Foreign Rela-

done with the idea that it is the nat

|Need EmergencyRate
|fFarmers Are toExist:
YOUNG SHOWS DEADLY EFFECT OF
INFLUX WITHOUT DUTIES OF
Foreign PRODUCERS

Washington, April 25.-That the
enactment of the emergency agricul.
tural tariff bill is essential if the
prosperity Of the farmers of the
country is to be restored is evidenced
by figures presented by Representa-
tive George M. Young, Of South Da-
kota, in charge of the bill for the
Ways and Means committee in the
House. He said:
The annaul consumption of flax
in the United States is $4,000, 900
bushels. We imported $4,000, 900
in 1920. In other words, we import
ed all of our needs excepting l,000,-
900 bushels. We raised in this coun.
try last year about 100000 bush
els. That leaves 10000, 900 bushels
of flax to flood this market and de-
press the price.
Il will give you a few figures to
just show how this works out to the
man who raises flax. The total acre
age of the United States was 1885,
900 acres in 1920. The total produc-
ton was 100000 bushels, giving
an average yield per acre of 60 bush
els. About one-third of that flax was
grown in North Dakota. The aver
age there was So bushels per acre.
The last quotations, which reached
me last night, in the Grand Forks
Herald, gives the price at SLIP for
flax. That would mean $6.47 per
acre as the gross return from flax
S6.47 per acre is scandalously below
the cost of production. The aver
age cost of raising flax in North Da-
kota was $3.50 per acre, according
to the United States Bureau of Mar
kets. The cost in Minnesota was
S2l.40 per acre.
The situation in respect to live
stock is of a highly emergency char
acter. During the winter of 1918
and 1919 there was very little snow
in the Northwest and in the noun
tain states, and in the following sum-
mer there was a very severe drought
which dried up the pastures and mea-
dows, and during the winter of 1919
20 there was need for buying hay and
other feed to winter the stock. 1t is
true that during the war the growers
of live stock had been able to do fair
ly well and to accumulate something,
but during that winter they had to
buy hay that used to cost 81 to Sc a
ton and pay $40 to SIS a ton. So
that in the spring of 1920 it was a
very rare stock raiser of the West

Tess Praises Harding
for New Note.
STRESslNG OF DOMESTIC PROBLEMS
Will FIND RESPONSE IN Con-
GRESS FOR SOLUTION

Washington, April 25.-H igh
praise of President Harding for
stressing the domestic problems to
be settled by Congress following up
on the passage of the Knox peace
resolution is voiced by Chairman ST.
neon D. FeSS, of the National Re-
publican Congressional Committee.
Il am especially mindful of the
words of our great president said
DR.. FeSs, when he announced that
We are out of the clouds, with both
feet upon the ground and facing the
front. How refreshing those words
are after eight years Of meaningless
shibboleths, endless appeals to preju-
dice, doctrinaire pronunciamentos up
on unrealitieS, un-American grants
of our rights in the name of human
ity, and quixotic and persistent dis
%coveries of the millenial dawn. Our
president has sounded a note Of COM
NOR sense and we have turned to
earth.
"As a matter Of fact" the doctor
continued, the problems of recon-
struction are real and their solution
must be equally Practicable. Our
war debts cannot be liquidated by
theory. They must be paid. There
is no relief from war burdens save
in the homely remedy of thrift and
economy. There is no relief from
war burdens save through the reduc-
ton of the cost of the government.
So long as it costs six times the pre-
war cost to mann the government
there is no chance Of relief from tax
alton burdens.
Economy is President Harding's
watchword, as it is that of the Repub-
lican Congress, and the command
has already gone TO all the depart
ment heads to cut to the bone the
cost Of executive administration.
War taxation, uneconomic and I'M
scientific, must not be tolerated when
war is over, Hence, the deadening
and paralyzing excess profits tax
must go, in order tina: enterprise may
again risk investment in continuance
and expansion of industry. These
cas- it must be an inspiration to ev-
cry citizen to know the president is
for. And so, too emergency tariff
legislation should be enacted on be-
half of agriculture, the cost of COM
modities of which has responded to
the demands of deHation while the
cost of the things the farmer buys
has not so responded, Thus, it may
be necessary to make investigation
to ascertain the cause Of the inequity
the consumer. Profteering
is a temptation which no longer
should be tolerated at the expense
Of the public"
