spects with Rabbi Blau. We feel
that he has given us an exposi-
ton of his own problem of faith
and a personal solution to HIS
problem. We believe that his
problem differs much from the
problem of the average man, be-
cause he has, first, philosophic
mind, and then he has given
years of academic study to the
problem. Everyday-man does not
do this. The mind of the average
man is not open to deep reflec-
ton on spiritual matters he
has neither the time nor the in
clination for them. In spite of
what Rabbi Blau says, most peo-
pie do have their religion done
up for them in neat parcels" just
as they have their politics done
up for them, just as they have
their business rules done up for
them, and just as they have their
literature-or what of it they
get-done up for them. 1t is not
their fault-the human mind is
just limited, and in the terrific
struggle for existence, it is all
that can be expected of them.
We have no quarrel with the
masses. We understand that
the business man does not have
time to inquire into the validity
of the different systems of phil
osophical thought; We know Just
why the ordinary man cannot if
ne would, stop to inquire into the
various theories of life that have
been propounded as true. It
takes a trained mind even to un-
derstand its own problems and
difficulties-and the mind today
is trained to the economic, not
the religious problems. We dare
say that it takes as much mental
energy to direct a great business,
as it does to write a philosophi-
cal treatise; we believe that it
takes as much mental energy to
direct great law suits, as it does
to write a book on one or the 9TH
er of the many aspects of the re-
ligious problem; men have not
the time to study these things of
the spirit deeply-and we for
our part do not blame them. Our
quarrel with the average man is,
that he forms some sort of a
spiritual point of view for HIM
SUPPLEMENTARY as it is-and
then he fails to live up to it, not
because he CANNOT-but be-
cause he finds it either inconven-
lent or costly. Our quarrel with
the men and women of today is
that they are suppressing the
nobler impulses which lead Cod
ward, to the material impulses

40 Crippled Chrildren from
Sparta Are Treated

Twenty-three crippled children
from the Sparta State Public School
School for Dependent Children are
now receiving medical treatment at
the Bradley Memorial hospital at the
University of Wisconsin. About 40
children have been cared for since
last July when the hospital first be-
gan the work.
This work for crippled children
that is now being done is the first
step in the activities that will be car
ried on in the new State General hos
pital that is now being built on the
university campus in conjunction
with the Medical school.
Most of the children sent from
Sparta are suffering from infantile
paralysis: Operations are performed
and the crippled children are fitted
with braces that are made in the uni
versity shops. Medical experts from
Milwaukee come to Madison once
every week to give the necessary
medical care Exercises and mas
sage treatments are given to the
cases which demand them. Cases of
hair lip and cleft palate are also be-
ing treated.
Besides the medical care, the chill
dren receive schooling from 8 to IL
every day that they are in the hos
pital. Various kinds of recreation
are given them by the hospital,
Madison theaters, and by the Uni
versity Employees association. Direc-
tions for exercising are sent with the
children when they return to Sparta
in order that the improvement may
continue.
The children who are received at
the hospital are of all ages from 3 to
20 years. The maximum number
which can be cared for at the same
time is about %. :

Washington. Aug. 15.-The ad-
ministration tax revision program
was attacked in statement pub
lished today by Chairman White,

methods adopted by the republi-
cans IN order to make false

"The sudden change in the re-
publican tax bill program decided
upon at the recent White House
conference, said Mr.. White, has
only added confusion and uncer-
tainty to the governments fiscal

Chairman Fordney, who wrote
the wonderful tariff bill OF which
the senate is expected to leave

revision of taxes regardless of the
amount of money needed for ex-
penditures. which create definite

(From the Eugene GUARD J

A Washington dispatch dated
August 4 says tina" t"Congressman
willis c. Hawley is charged with
being false to the republican
principles of protection. The ac'
cuser is Representative Frank
w. Mondell of Wyoming. republi-
can leader on the floor OF the
house.
Mr.. Hawley's indictments grows
out of speech he made during
debate on the Fordney tariff bill
in favor of free hides. In that
speech he calculated that the
proposed duty OF 15 per cent on
hides would be carried into the
cost Of production of shoes, and
mean about 40 cents pair to
the consumer. This tax laid on
the consumer. he held, is too
great to Justify the benefit that
would come to the producer of
hides"
1t seems from Washington news
paper reports that Mr.. Hawley, as
republican member of the ways
and means committee, made a
first hand study of the effect OF
the proposed duty on hides. He
obtained his data from the tariff
commission. He found a duty of
Is per cent ad valorem is the
equivalent of four cents pound
on the raw hide. At four cents
pound 1,550,000,000 pounds
would amount to $62,000,00
and Mr.. Hawley does not yield to
the contention of his colleagues
that this will be absorbed in the
trade and not reflected in the
prices of shoes.

Peace In Ireland
Threatened With
Deadlock, Report

London, Aug. 15.-England to-
day faced crucial period In the
negotiations looking to the es-
tablishment of peace in Ireland.
The action OF the British govern
lment yesterday in making public
letters exchanged between Prime
Minister Lloyd-George and Ea-
NOM Deyalera, Irish republican
leader, showed the people that a
virtual deadlock existed, although
the door was declared to have
been left open for further parleys.
Reports from Dublin which
might indicate what the Irish re-
publicans would do to counter the
unexpected move OF the go,.In-
ment in giving the correspond
ience to the press were anxiously
awaited.
II would appear that the prime
minister sought to lay the Irish
problem before the country on the
eve Of the meeting OF the Dali
Eireann, which conyenes tomor-
row.
The government terms were in
brief, as follows:-
Dominion status for Ireland,
with complete autonomy In finan-
cial matters. but without tariff or
trade restriction between the is
lands. Ireland would maintain de-
fense forces and police, but her
territorial forces would be kept
within reasonable limits
Ireland would maintain her
own postal system, but would
grant England air defense and
communication facilities. ireland
would have control of her own
educational and industrial affairs,
but the British navy would main.
tain Its hold on the seas around
the island. A share OF the Unit
ed Kingdoms debt would be as
sumed by Ireland. the exact
amount to be fixed by arbitration.
Mr.. DeValera. In reply, demand
ed full independence for Ireland
and suggested treaty OF associa-
tion with the British common
wealth group. Treaties regarding
trade and Limitation of armaments
were urged by the Irish republi-
can chieftain, together with mu-
tual agreements as to air, railway
and other communication The
Ulster problem would be left to
the Irish themselves for solution,
Mr.. DeValera declaring that the
employment OF force was not
contemplated"
The attitude of the Ulster gov
ernment was made plain by the
public at Belfast Of a let
ter to Mr.. Lloyd-George from Sir
James Craig, the Ulster premier.
Sir James expressed the loyalty OF
his government to the empire and
his readiness to confer
with Mr.. Lloyd-George and the
Slim Fein as to some means of |
settling Irish controversy but de-
,lared he would not support the |

get better combination Of both"
II Dempsey's identity were con-
cealed and he should be thrown
into gathering 1t is probable
that not one out OF hundred
persons would consider that he
makes his living In a prize ring.
AT least that is the opinion, OF
quite a few Of Dempsey's califor-
MIA admirers.
Dempsey has few pet ambi-
tions," as he terms them.
First OF all. he wants his mother
to be as happy as money and his
devotion can make her.
Second. he want to be champion
as long as he feels his physical
condition and skill entitle him to
that honor. M
Third, he wants to retire unde-
feated.
Fourth, he wants eventually to
settle down to business career
where he "can be Of useful SER
vice to mankind and reach out a
helping hand to struggling young
fellows"
The champion emphasized that
he wants to give the public the
greatest considerable at all times
and will fight any worthy aspir-
ant. except colored man, and
will fight Just as often as the
public demands.
Il am not going to balk at meet
Ing anyone Jack Kearns may
choose for me to fight" said
Dempsey. aKearns won't send me
against some fellow who would
not give me good battle. The
public won't stand for matches
with straw men"
Judging from the present OUT
look ! expect to be champion for
years. But I am going to give
the rising generation of boxers

title. If any Of them can beat
me, well and good. But. believe
me. II right living and a honest
