great deserts in Africa, Asia and else
where have more OF less steadily en-
croached upon the arabic land for the
last 10000 years. 1t is in the face Of
such facts as this that modern men are
girding themselves to master the ele-
mental forces and to conquer the nat
ural difficulties Of human existence II
upon this somewhat incIement planet.
Out of this new and modern mood of
men is being born everywhere a new
spirit of civil and social law. The
time is perhaps at hand when the val
idity of every statute will be judged
from chronological point of view.
Does it tend to put tools in the hands
of those who can use them9 That is
the crucial question, in a really mod
ern jurisprudence.
No prescriptive title, however long,
can have right to stand in the way
of civilization. And no majority, how
ever large, shall impose upon us a
law of inefficrency and futility.

possible system and efficiency and by
so doing reduce their hours of work
and add every possible means of bet
tering conditions for those to whom
they render service. The school was
opened to-day, after much cleaning up
last week, and the women at their
meeting expressed their unanimous
confidence and support to our teaching
force. All we need is to get little
closer together, more thoroughly under
stand our problems and each other,
and there will never be a discord in
our daily life Our ideal is the thing
we look to and we know it is right. The
future of our children is secure here,
our wealth Of the future is just what
we choose to make it. All the natur-
al resources are at our hands touch
and by proper understanding, with our
labors properly done we will make this
the safest and best place for the de-
velopment of large family that will
never know what exploitation will
mean. Comrades, we are doing these
things for you as we'll as ourselves, and
we want your support in every way.
Will you join us now and support us
with the money we need to build with
or are your dollars more valuable than
your ideal?

QUESTION or RIGHT
APRAcTICAL MATTER
lRH Charles Ferausonl

he most thought-compellIing event
modern times is the rise Of the gi-
aantic fabric Of big business" Big
business has thrown itself across the
frontiers Of all nations. In many, if
not IN most places. it has become more
powerful than the political states. Its
representatives enter. by the back
stairs, if not by the portico, INTO all
courts and chanceleries; and its inter-
nal structure is of such natural strength
that il tends TO control all the forces
Of civilization.
Ii must be remembered that this IA
bric Of big business is altogether a new
fhine. In times gone by, the working
organization Of society had always
narrower scope than the political SOW
ereignty, while now the territorial jur-
isdiction of business men is sometimes
wider than that of kings. So intimate
" also does the power of the economic
system enter into every mans private
life that it is in general much more I'M
portant to the individual that he have
4 place and a name, whether high or
low. in the vast hierarchy of business,
than that he have the suffrages OF
citizenship under a particular state.
Observe now, that this new order OF
IL, L,,s;neee with the tools of the II
sans in its hands, served as it is by
the resources - the unparalleled re-
sources - Of modern chemistry and
physics, has up to this time fallen very
far short of proving its moral right to
social power and authority.
The broadcast indictment against II
IS. that for the last IS years or so, the
cost Of living has steadily risen every
where throughout the circle of com
merce. The purchasing power OF a
days work has declined. In word
ii is becoming harder every day for
plain man to live.
Thus, it is not open to US 10 say that
we will let well enough alone. We
are compelled to take thought. We
must search for some principle of re-
generation, some divine banalite" so
automatic that sensible men everywhere
can agree upon it.
venture to suggest that this new
principle is expressing itself every
where in an ethical ideal of unprece-
dented simplicity. 1t is dawning upon
all thinking men that the question OF
Right and Wrong should submit itself
to practical test. To such men,
Right is what helps people to live hui
man lives, and Wrong is what hinders
them. In all countries the more yirlle
elements of society are disposed to test
the ethical character of institutions.
laws and customs by asking whether
they tend to raise the common STAN
dard Of living or to lower it.
More and more we are coming to
look upon civilization as simply a tre-
mendous enterprise in engineering. We
are beginning to see that this business
of subduing the earth and building the
cities is at the bottom both moral and
religious. that it involves not only the
advancement of the arts and sciences,
but also the refinement and exaltation
Of the spirits of men.
