CHURCH GOING AS VIEWED BY
THEODORE ROOSEVELT.

Comparatively few people of Wal
lace are regular attendants at church
and the percentage is not generally
greater in other communities, if re-
ports through newspapers and other
channels can be relied upon Auto
mobiles and the movies are to a great
extent blamed for this situation, but
we are not sure that they are respon-
! sible to the extent claimed Down
deep in the heart of most everyone
there is a profound Christian faith
and respect for the church, but when
il comes to manifesting these by at
tending religious services, the tend
ency of modern life to seek some
thing new. to regard old forms as a
bore is so widespread that unless
there is a minister OF unusual ability
and musical features out of the or
binary, the service is generally one
in which empty pews predominant. |
And yet the simple service of the av-
erage church is of real benefit and |
enjoyment to those who attend in the
proper frame of mind This was rec
ognized by Theodore Roosevelt, who
expressed his ehnrchgoing creed in J.

BUSINESS REVIVAL.
(New York Tribnnel

New York Tribune)
Many manufacturers still complain
that buying is of the hand to mouth
variety-that the retailer will buy on
ly what will move over his counters
with celebrity So the wholesaler has
to operate in the same way, and the
manufacturer worries. There is moth
ing surprising about this if we recall
what happened only little more than
a year ago. Then there were acute
market shortages of goods. The
wholesaler took what the manufact-
urer would give him-on the manu-
facturer's terms. The retailer was in
the same position with the wholesal-
er. IL had been going on for months
and months and seemingly would
never end. So, believing that, every
branch of business bought extrava-
gantiy at high prices and was able TO |
sell only sparingly at higher prices
still. All the time that there were
acute market shortages of goods there /
we're great speculative surpluses held

we're rising Then things turned

KANSAS LABOR COURT.

editor and Publisher New York;
On arriving at the age of 16 months
the Kansas law creating the court of
industrial relations. as an institution
for the amelioration of industrial
strife, is able to cut two important
recent notches on the handle of it's
gun whichc ould properly be describ-
ed as
First a unanimous decision of the
Kansas supreme court in the case of
the appeal of Alexander Howat, pres
ident of District IA of the United
Mine Workers of America, which was
a sweeping upholding of the indus
trial court law. (Handed down June
IL. 1920.
Second the report of the state mine
inspector which discloses that the
production of coal in Kansas in 1920,
being the first year of the operation
of the industrial court law, showed
an increase of approximately 1871
per cent over 1919 and an increase of
the average working days of the
mines of 60.7 days in 1920 over 1919.
These two outstanding facts have !
replaced hope with belief and faith |
with the fact of assured performance |
in the hearts and minds of Governor |
Henry J. Allen and the men in Kan
sas who have worked with him in
writing into the laws of Kansas a
plan whereby industry and the inter
EST of the public may be protected
against industrial warfare without
aking away from either of the com
'atants any right essential to their
veil being.

Light
MAUD Frazer Jackson)

How beautiful is light!
Light as it dawns and deepens into
day,
Light tender, wistful as it dies away;
Light of the moon appearing through
the trees,
Peacefully resting on the restless
seas;
Light in the clouds of grandeur and of
dread;
After long voyages home -shore lights
ahead;
Lamp-light that streams through
open cottage door.
Telling of joy and rest when toll is
DER;
freight within (while storms with
out we hear,
Shining on books beloved and friends
long dear;
When dark the night descends across
the plain
Lights of a village twinkling through
the rain;
Starlight that silent, whispers of
Gods throne;
Light of the eyes in love that meet
Glow of church windows in a scene
snow white
While songs of worship ring out in
the night;
Sunlight that softly seeks the hal
lowed place
Where sinners pray for Gods forgiv-
ing grace
o Thou, the true and everlasting
light,
Who art the source of all things pure
and bright,
These lesser rays on earthly paths
that shine
Speak of the cloudless sunlight--love
divine!
Father of lights. by spirit and by
word
Tighten our darkness we beseech
Thee, Lord!

Silver and the Pittman Act

Engineering and Mining Journa)
Although the American silver pro-
ducer is temporarily free from worry
over silver prices, to say he is disin-
terested would be a gross misstate-
ment, as the time is gradually but
surely coming when American silver
must be sold in an open market again.
Foreign silver prices have remained
fairly steady around 60c per ounce, at
which level the market is quiet but
not high enough, under present labor
and supply costs, to induce a heavier
production from foreign mines, par
ticularly those in Canada and Mexi-
co. In fact production from foreign
mines is declining. Decreased pro-
duction however, can not help being
ultimately beneficial to the silver
mining industry of the world, for,
one of these days, treatment of silver
as a Speculative football" will cease,
a genuine consuming demand for the
metal will appear, and mining can be
resumed on a pre-war scale.
Unfortunately, silver like gold, is
inextricably linked with monetary
systems and finance Its industrial
uses are secondary. Consequently, |
much depends upon the whims of gov
ernments as to how silver shall be !
OF late, numerous examples
leave no doubt as to how Europe, at |
least, is discarding silver Much can
be said for and against the European
attitude of sending silver to the melt
ing pot. For some countries desper-
alton is the root of the troubles; for
others it is the result of a disorgan-
zed paper and metal currency sys-
EN-.
On July 26, a shipment of silver
rom Germany valued at $500, 900 and
consigned to a local bank was receiv-
ID in New York. This silver is part
# a lot expected to total $4,000. 900
which the German government is
hipping to the United States to OBJ
ain much needed American credit. c
he silver shipments had caused the
rade much perturbation, as 1t was '
bought that the German attitude :
light include quick disposal of the o
fetal. with the probable result of dis p
rganizing the market. 1t will be re-
allied that Germany last year was a p
eavy seller of silver, with disastrous II
ssults to the market. However, it
opears that the $4,000, 900 in silver
be shipped to the United States is II
DE used as collateral to secure a OF
an, and hence will not be pressed q

the loan. Had a procedure such as fc
is been carried out last year, it is m
Sely that the heavy and unprece- W
nted decline in the silver market VI
1920 would have been cushioned be
ID much milder. The silver ship ri

the same period (1909-1913) was
about 221, 6OO,OOO ounces, which gives
some idea of the Importance of coin
age demands to the silver market. AL
though coinage of silver has fallen,
production has also shown a large de-
crease partially offsetting the de-
crease in coinage.
A British bullion broker calls at
tention to an important difference in
the present position of silver coinage
in India Whereas, on July 81, 1914,
midas silver reserves were about
116,5O0,000 ounces in coined rupees
the total is now about 227,OOOOOO
ounces, due to the great activity of
! the Indian mints in 1917, 1918, and
1919, and the extraordinary demand
for silver during that period. This
should have an important bearing on
the demand in India for silver coin
age India obtains its greatest pro-
portion of silver from London. North
America, Shanghai and other Asiatic
ports, Australia and Burma also send
their treasure to the Indian market
Despite the large accumulations of
silver in India, the imports of silver
into that country during the first four
months of the year were about 81
100000 ounces, compared with some
lOO,OOO,O0O ounces annually before the
war indicating a rate of importation
slightly less than that before the war.
This situation is ascribed to the still
pronounced prosperity of the country.
Exports of silver from the United
states are confined to foreign silver
as domestic silver is being sold to the
government at 81 per ounce under the
provisions of the Pittman act The
outward going volume of silver has
reached small proportions, and i'm
ports are also light Great Britain.
Shina and Hongkong are the chief
destinations of the exported silver.
Mexico is by far the heaviest contrib
itor Of silver imported into the Unit
ID States. From June 1, 1920, to July
. 1871 about 66,0OO,0O0 ounces of sill
'er was imported into the United
'tates' compared with 57OOO.OOO
unces exported. confirming the i'm
ression that domestic Industrial con-
umers Of silver are obtaining sup
lies from cheaper foreign deposits
ather than high priced domestic sill
er.
purchases of silver under the Pitt
ian act now total over $4,000. 900
unces, not quite one-third of the
100000 ounces, which will make
p the total purchases. The price of
'reign silver is far from that of do
estic' and there is nothing visible
MICH would make it appear that sill
II VIII rise above one dollar again
'fore the purchases have been com
eted. Criticism of the Pittman act,
Mich was particularly violent last
inter- has mOmentarily abated, but
another wave of criticism may roll
at any moment it behooves all sill
r producers interested in the well
re OF their industry to be ready
omptly to combat any uncalled for
tim for repeal of the act. Eternal
glance is the price of safety The
yer miners have nothing to be
named of in the Pittman act. On
contrary the fullest publicity can
fail to inform the unprecedented

legislation, and the just reward
