O L BY LAW.

1--WE have a prohibition clause in the Constitution"
asserts q writer in the Epworth Herald. 1T is prop
erly there and it ought to be thoroughly enforced, in
New York as well as in Maine and North Dakota
ats enforcement is not easy, and in many quarters
Il is not popular. The rebellious minority blames the
churches for the law, and not without abundance of
reason.
W may as well admit that the Christian faith
and its professors are disiiked today, positively and
definitely. by many Americans who heretofore have
scarcely given n thought to religion.
what troubles me is that we may be in danger Of
thinking that all the ends If the Gospel can be Sc
cured by law, and particularly by law which forever
says: Thou shalt not Jesus, our Lord, did not a.
ways teach men so. He left something to persuasion,
to forgiveness, to tolerance, to love.
81 do not plead for - wered standards or for a
church silent in the presence of grave evils But
there are churches with penal enactments in their
own laws, and the success of those enactments has not
been brilliant enough to arouse much faith in more
laws to make people conform to churchiy rules
'Tf we could see the picture OF the Christian church
in the mind OF today's non-Christian American, the
chances are that it would show q joy-kining. narrow
minded company of ignorant, bigoted meddlers in
other peoples affairs.
seThe picture is not true, and it has been drawn, in
large part, by unscrupulously cunning propagandists
who hate Christianity as did the silversmiths OF
Ephesus.

and beauty of our faith n larger opportunity to be

FRIsKINc THE E

Complaints from the homes Of citizens, of sneak
thieves entering and purloning women's apparel, null
tiply. And in the same ratio failure Of the police de-
partment to recover the raiment, detect the thieves
and cause arrest and punishment, is recorded. In
stances OF similar character have been so frequent as
to cause speculation as to whether or not there was
an organized band engaged in systematic footing.
The. strange feature of the many cases coming to no.
tce is that nothing else in the home is disturbed, no
other valuables taken, the stealing confined exclusive
ly to womens clothing and fnery. In many OF the in
stances the entire possessions were carried away, leav-
ing nothing to clothe the lady Of the house except
what she wore at the time of her absence from home.
Why the speciality in woman's wear? Is the un-
answered question that puzzles everybody. There
could be several explanations, any one OF which might
be the right answer. 1t is possible that there were a
number of women here or elsewhere short of cloth
ing and desired covering against the approaching un-
kind blasts OF winter. 1t could be an irresistible desire
for fnery on the part of those who have not, coupled
with an uncomfortable impulse to exploit those who
have. Again it could be the convenience with which
a lady's wardrobe can be transported, respecting both
bulk and weight, the assertion being made by those
best informed, that an entire complement can be
moved from place to place in an ordinary shirt box
under the arm of a courageous determined woman.
However, mysterious details and wise speculations
do not modify the fact that Casper women are being
despoiled of their priced habiliments and nothing is
being done about it.

MAKE A PUBLIC RECORD.

1t seems rather a sensible suggestion that automo-
biles which are frequently equal in value to a house
and lot, should be dealt with in the matter of record
ng purchase, ownership and transfer exactly the
same as is done in real property and certain kinds OF
chattei property. The requirement should be uniform
in all the states and recorded in city and state which
would by the same act legally sanction the sale.
Such a plan would reduce to the minimum the THEFT
Of cars by affording better facilities for tracing them
when they are stolen.
In property of the value OF an automobile the state
should afford equal protection to the owner as is done
in the case of the home. The purchaser of car these
days, unless it be a new car from an authorized agent,
is never certain of the title and never knows when he
will be called upon to surrender it to ~ owner having
a better title.
The widespread practice of stealing automobiles is
one of the growing crimes of civilization and the
states should step in and aid local police and sherifs
to protect the property of the people in any manner
possible for it to assist
