PAYING FOR THE WHISTLE.

Old Ben Franklin tells US in
his O-to-be-a-hog-raphy that
once when he was a small boy he
bought a whistle" and paid too
much for it. And that's how we
got our familiar expression about
paying for his whistle"
That is the prelude.
Now here is the music.
The little island of Guam is
one of "our possessions" like the
Philippines, Porto Rico, Hawaii,
etc. The governor Of Guam is
an American monarch by the
name of w. w. elmer, and just
to show off his power and au-
thority, Gov. Gilmer has issued
an order that no inhabitant of
Guam shall be permitted to
whistle. The fine for each and
every offense is five dollars. The
Governor says in his order that
the act of pickering up the lips
and blowing through the hole
makes IAN unnecessary and IT.
ritating noise, which must be dis
continued"
But of course those who are
rich and able to pay the fine can
whistle right on. The anti
whistling order was only meant
for the poor. Perhaps a rich
mans whistle would not sound
so irritating to the American
monarch, nohow.
That IS some more Of the
''self-determination'A that you
have been hearing so much
about. Being deprived of every
other liberty by the American
monarchs, the poor Guamians
were probably just "whistling to
keep up their courage" and now
they are deprived Of even that
privilege. Next thing they know
American liberty" will not al
low them to speak nor draw their
breath without paying a fine. Nc
doubt Guam thinks that in fall.

Sam she has paid too much fol

and function as we'll without a
body as with one-then there
would certainly be no need OF a
resurrection of any sort. More
than that, there would have been
no use for bodies in the first
place. Then why in the name OF
common sense did God ever make
human bodies at all? Why did
MT he Just make naked immortal
souls and let them float around
in space and live on the wind?
Just think how much cheaper
that would have been. No Wit
ties and clothes to buy, no houses
to build, no taxes to pay-why,
man, a Teller could actually save
something, couldn't he?

One fool who undertakes to up
hold the eternal torment" &C.
trine and argues against ami
hilation, tries to make a point
by saying that the word "anni-
hilation" is. not found in the
Scriptures from Genesis to Rev
Citations. Maybe not, but neither
is eternal torment" What are
you going to do about that, bud
dy? It is said to be a poor rule
that won't work both ways.
Huh?

New York State is greatly ex-

wolves of Wall Street to take va,

A SERMON ON THE RESUR
RECTION.

we will start the New Year with
a Sermon on the Resurrection"
I will use as my text a quotation
from a letter from John McDon-
aid, Of W~aitsburg, Washington.
It is a rather long text, but I
think you will agree that it has
got a good deal of fat on its
bones. Here it goes:
"What / want to know is In regard
to the body at the time of and after
the last resurrection. Shall we arise
from the dead when the final trum-
pet sounds with the same broken,
shrivelled, loathsome, diseased body
that was ours at the time of de-
mise? Or will it be the body that
was full Of life, vigor and health when
we Were young and hearty? Anothe7
unanswered difficulty looms up: We
are told by experienced men that the
human body is continually wasting
away and at the same time being re-
built by nourishment through partak-
= = -.
ing Of food. THIS changa is q slow
process, requiring about. even years
in the acquiring Of a new body. So
a man seventy years Of age would
have ten bodies ,or n very large in
deed. Think for a moment, if you can,
the spectacle he would make, with fin
ger nails and toe nails ten feet long,
and hair streaming out behind like
fifteen feet of fog, and tipping the
scales at half ton Or. more, after h.
had gophered himself out of his
grave"
And he goes on with a lot more
like that, but I have quoted
though = show the main drift
Of his thought. It is the same
question that has bothered the
minds of people in all ages. And
really it is not such a fool ques,
ton, either. It deserves an an
swer, but from the orthodos
standpoint it cannot be answer
ed. To those who believe and
teach that the identical same
body that is buried will be raised.
this is a sumner. For indeed
science does teach that we get &
new body every seven years, and
the bodies that we have in youth
are just as much our bodies as
the ones that we get as we grow
older. And it would seem that
the discarded bodies of youth
would have just as much righ'
to>be raised as the body we hap.
pen to have at death. And if al
the physical substance that ha'
ever been a part of our body
should be gathered up and RAISED
as one body, it shore to goodnes.
WouId be a whopper. It woul
be a young body and an old one
a healthy body and a diseased
one, all mixed up like a sack o.
} chicken-feed.
But there is a mighty sic.
! way of getting around all tina
trouble when. you once begin tt
understand the real teaching .:
scripture on the subject. Th'
Bible does NOT teach the resur
Erection of the same body that j
buried.

railroads can't do better this year than

witness agreed.
Daniel Willard, president OF the Bal
timore and Ohio. was called TO the
stand when Mr.. kruttschnitt was eX-
Cused temporarily.
MY views are generally in accord
with Mr.. kruttschnitts on the railroad
situation" Mr.. willard began. The
railroads. while under federal control,
were operated at loss, tho deficit be-
ing made up out OF the treasury. and
not being covered by increases in rates
and passenger fares. This has led to
Il great deal Of confusion OF thought
on the whole subject"
Mr. Willard said he did not Criticise
government operation as war measure.
but that private operation was more er-
ficient and economical
Mr.. Willard told of the condition OF
the roads when returned to their own

OF rolling stock was officially reported
as in bad order" In fact we found
forty per cent untitled TO carry grain
and other materials.
Of cars in bad ORDER he said. AS
