you that the word temple in the Bible
has different meanings. This we learn
by taking notice of where it is found
and the way it is used. 1t sometimes
means a house as in this case in our
lesson, and sometimes it means our
body and sometimes the church, the
body of Christ. But it never means
sect of any kind, by any name. You
can find a very fine building and spir-
itual people, but you never find live
spiritual people with the wrong -ma-
teriaI or an old delapidated building.

new wing was added, giving the build
ing its present fo-m. To Rev. H. P.
Alexander, who served the church as
pastor from 1910 to 1914, is due the
chief credit for The remodeling and
enlarging of the church building.
In 1916 under the leadership Of the
present pastor, Rev. Gerrit Snyder, a
fine, modern manse was erected on
the church property. The proposed
new church is also largely his plan

the best accommodation for the
money invested, ne is now leading
the congregation in a needed equip

for many years to come. 1t is hoped
that with the other good things com
ing to Hays, this year, the new Pres
byterian church will also become a
gratifying reality. c. A. S.

less, who tried to interfere with the
railroad work. Alex Brungardt's
father and hundreds of others of our
farmers went out there that winter to
help on that road and pick up some of
the railPOad money, crops being poor,
just as they will have their boys do
for the Golden Belt Railroad here IN
these counties this winter and spring;
and lots of our old Russians often tell
of their railroad experiences in those
times.
So here's hoping it will be a pleas

PROSPECTIVE NEW CHURCH

New Presbyterian Church for Hays
The above cut is from the archi-
tect's drawing of the proposeu new
church building for the Presbyterian
congregation of Hays.
The first Presbyterian church is the
oldest Protestant organization in
Hays and the older part of the pres
ent church building was the first
church edi6ce erected in Hays.
The church was organized May 27,
1873, by Rev. Timothy Hill, with
eight charter members. Shortly after
its organization a stone manse was
erected on lots in the southeast part
of town, donated by Hill P. Wilson.
This building is still standing, and was
used for the minister's residence until
1914. It was sold by the trustees in
1916.
In 1879, a stone church was erected
on the present location, and served

FROM KIPLINC

If we knew the cares and trials,
Knew the efforts all in vain,
And the bitter disappointment,
Understood the loss and gain
Would the grim eternal roughness
Seem wOnder-just the same ?
Should we help where now we hinder d?
Should we pity where we blame?
All! We Judge each other harshly,
knowing not life's hidden force;
knowing not the fount of action
Is less turbid at its source;
Seeing not amid the evil
All the golden grains of good
And we'd love each other better
If we only understood
Could we judge all deeds by motives
That surround each others lives.
See the naked heart and spirit,
Know what spur the action gives.
Often we should find it better,
Purer than we judged we should.
We should love each other better
If we only understood.
Could we judge all deeds by motives.
See the good and bad within.
OFTEN we should love the sinner
All the while we loathe the sin;
Could we know the powers working
To overthrow integrity,
We should judge each others errors
With more patient charity

THE GOLDEN BELT RAILROAD

Extends its heartiest congratula
tions and New Years greetings to
the people Of Hays and Ellis county,
and hopes that your year may be
brighter and more prosperous, for re-
member that ''In each life some rain
must fall, some days be dark and
dreary, but that behind the clouds the
sun still shines with silver lining"
And the Golden Belt Railroad is
going to do its best to help make 1922
the banner year for old Hays, and if
the business men, the State Normal
and Big Greek, by their signatures to
the Bond Petitions to show the
Directors they are ready to help and
want the road built from Great Bend
across the Reservation to Hays-nO
new Normal School built at Dodge,
want Hays a division point and Office
of the Company, the road viii do its
part and help give Hays that 5000
population before another year, and
5000 by the Census Of 1880.
Our clouds show a beautiful silver
lining and after our long pull. The
Great Bend Commissioners have given
US permission to cross their streets to
get to railroad connections IN their
city, and the Hays Commissioners on
Tuesday gave the Company the same
privilege so We can build from Mum
jor across Big Greek TO our terminal

who have entered upon or who are
planning to enter upon the occupation
of the farm or the farm home. There
are seventy of these departments
now operating in Arkansas in forty
four counties. Work is given to both
young men and young women, while
girls take work in home-making. An
essential part of the work for the boys
is practice work on the home farm.
Along with the class work farm
enterprise is carried under the super
vision of the teacher. This project
involves the growing of som ecrop, or
the care and management of live
stock. Accurate records and accounts
are kept on these projects, and a re
port is made at the end of the year.
The value of the work will be seen
in better farm practice, better farm
business, and better farm living. The
combination of theory and practice as
used in these schools should give the
boy managerial experience and skill,
develop initiative, and make Inn econ
omically independent and socially eff
cient. Arkansas Gazette, Dec. %,
1921.
The head of the agricultural de-
partment of this school, Mr.. E. B.
Matthew, was for several years a
member of the faculty of the Fort
Hays Normal. He did excellent work
here, and is undoubtedly making
good in his present position.

WHERE DOES THE MONEY GO

In Hays, only about one-fOurtn of
the taxes collected goes to the sup
port of the public schools.
In this nation the annual bill for
public elementary education is $762,-
259,154. Each year the nation
spends on face lotions and the beau
tifying cosmetics, $75O,OOO,OOO.
Normal school training of teachers
in the United States, costs yearly,
S2O,414,689. The bill paid with jolly
alacrty for chewing gum is $5O,OOO,-
600.
Higher education totals yearly in
the institutions of learning in the U.
s., $137O55,415. Sundaes, sodas and
drinking fountain delights cost an
nually and gleefully, $35O,O0O,0OO.
All departments of education in
the whole nation costs annually less
than 100000 900. Joy rides and
pleasure resorts present a yearly bill
totaling So, 100000, 1000.
In the light of the above compari-
sons, is public education costing too
much? In the light of the compara-
tive returns on the investment is 1T
costing enough? c. A. S.

The Counsy Commissioners of
Ellis, Rush and Barton county gave

from railroad connection in Great

Hyacinth church, and to Hays if we
can get across the Fort Hays Reserva-
ton to get to Hays, by December 4,
1922-Only eleven months, 50 we will
have to build a township a month :;
and we are counting on having the
road built from there to Hays in time
for the State Teachers Association
meeting next October, and to take the
Oregon Soldier Boys, bound for their
national convention in New Orleans,
next October, over the Union Pacific
through Hays over the Golden Belt
and the Santa Fe without change of
cars, and they can go back by the
Southern route.

for labor, will be spent through the
places of business in Hays, Catharine, |

to be sent to eastern Mail Order

and we can under our payment plans.

The st. Johns river is not in the
last analysis, a river; but a series of
lakes. Just above the city of Jack
sOnville it widens to five or six miles;
at intervals it narrows down between
banks and looks, and is, a river with
sluggish, almost imperceptable cur
rent. Lake George, for instance, is
thirty miles long and half as wide, and
in that vicinity are other stretches of
deep water, which embrace islands of
large size on which are ancient orange
groves and fig trees of immense size.
These orange groves are supposed to
have originated with the Spaniards
centuries ago.

THE RED VIPER

On January y and 13 at the
Strand Theatre, will be shown that
most remarkable picture, "The Red
Viper" under the auspices of Casper
J. Middlekauff Post No. 173. This
picture was shown at Kansas City
during the week of the American Le-
gion National Convention. It is one
Of the most popular movies in Amer
lea.
The Red Viper is the story of the
strife, hopes and struggles of the
masses of immigrants who come to
our shores. The cast is headed by
Gareth Hughes as the youthful David
BelIpov, a Russian boy who on one
side is enthralled by the magnificent
Americanism of the late Colonel
Roosevelt and on the other side is
drawn into the tolls of radicalism
through the influence of his sweet
heart. At last the clouds of doubt
are lifted and waving high in the air
of truth and righteousness he behOIds
Old Glory with its message of free
dom for all. He makes his supreme
choice. Can he serve two masters?
Which shall it be-the girl of his
heart VINO believes in Un-American-
ism, or the flag of the Land of the
Free? He follows the flag and then
redeems the girl from her false ideas.
The story is one which carries with
it a message of inspiration, and at the
same time satisfies those who go to
the movies in the search of thrills. It
is wholesome and pure and comes
with the highest recommendations.
This picture has been popular in New
York and other large cities and is
drawing card wherever ut is shown.
