VETERANS WILL
HOLD Meeting
IN ROCK ISLAND
Home of Woman's Auxiliary Of
Patriotic Order Chosen
for State Session.

Rock Island was chosen for the
1922 convention of the United
Veterans of the Republic and auxil-
larry at the convention Just clos I'd
at the Great Northern hotel in Chi
cago. Commander in Chief Charles
Hamilton of Evanston will visit the
city soon to make preliminary ar
engagements for the meeting.
1t is probably because of the>ac-
tivities of the auxiliary to the unit
that Rock Island was selected for
the next national meeting. The
woman's organization originated
here and Mrs. Lillian Bedford is the
national president. At the conven-
ton last week she was given the
honor Of presenting the newly elect
ed commander in chief of the unit
with the gavel, and also Of obligat-
ing the delegates who came from
every. state in the union as honor
airy members of the auxiliary.
ThS local unit was represented by
Joseph A. Bledsoa and the auxiliary
by the national president, Mrs. Bed
ford, and three of the national Of
ficers, Mrs. Martha Mason, council
Tor. Mrs. Anna Cosner, first vice
president, and Mrs. Abbie Bledsoe,
the corresponding secretary.

Pure HEART is
SURE GUIDE TO
BEST MARRIAGE


Love is an appetite. like hunger,
and prone to identify itself with
the first attraction thar promises TO
crafty IT," declared DIR. Newton Ia.
Rifldell, who spoke last M at upon
Love. Marriage and Percentage.
The auditorium was filled ana Dr.
R.ddell discussed the theme with
emphasis upon the spiritual view
point with frequent Illustration and
humor.
Not the least important factor IN
attainment of the highest spiritual
development is true marriage, ne
said. and lesson OF his lecture
dealt In acquiring that object.
In part, DR.. Diddell said:
Marriage at its best is paradise
regained; marriage at its worst
need not be defined Marriage is
both natural and spiritual In the
one II has for its object the happi-
ness of the individual, the perpetu-
ity of the race and the continuity
of the social and civic duties that
form the basis of civilization. In
the other. It is a conjunction of
spiritual beings for their mutual
perfecting as a dual center of di-
vine manifestation In this mysti-
cal sense it Is a sacrament ana
vital part OF Gods plan OF saliva
ton.
asRedemption of marriage from
the base manifestations OF selfish
ness is one of the great works OF
Calvary and the Christian religion.
Not until the church comes to dis
crininate between divine mar
rage and mere legal union will 1t
begin to perform its part in the
saeramental and redemptfve pro-
cess of true marriage.
pure love is ennobling. 1t lifts
men and women to their best Love
differs in its expressions according
to the plane of life on which it Is
manifested; but on all planes II is
the creative principle that is back
OF all forms of life and conscious
ness.
Mistaken LaTe.
Magnetic attraction is often
mistaken for love. True adapta-
ton is a soul quality that harmon
ICES likes and dislikes- Its least
important aspect rs temperament,
personal appearance and manner
isms. No marriage is genuine that
does not spring from desire to
love and bless the object Of the
affections. Those who marry from
other motives, without this as the
primal cause, are guilty of violat-
ing the laws of life, ethics, society
and divinity. Divine marriage does
not compel men and women to
comply with all the requirements
of devotion, but it does require the
recognition of oneness in spirit
and truth, complete union of life
and enforcement from all other
affections and attachments that
might hinder this union
1T is grave mistake to assume
that love means the same to all
persons, or that its activities pro-
duce exactly the same results in
any two. The most affectionate
may be also the most faithless,
while cold and inexpensive ma
lures are not infrequently the
most constant and loyal The lat
ter are conjugal, and are horri-
fed at any suggestion of promis-
