CHURCH ENDS War.
More General Religious Teach
ing Needed Says Hanson.
Future Generation Rests With
Sunday School, Is Belief.

Goodland, Kan, March s0.-More
general religious instruction Of young
people was advocated as a necessary
means of averting another world war,
in an address here last night before
the annual meeting of the Northwest
Kansas conference of the Methodist
Episcopal church by DR.. william C.
E Sunday school board
The responsibility of the future
generation rests on every Sunday
school teacher and on every home"
the world everywhere, the essential
teaching is the teaching of Jesus. The
solution of the world demands a
spiritual solution and we are inevita-
bly, facing another world war unless
the influence of religion can soften
the hearts of men.
For the first time in history,
Christianity is being tested among the
met the test among the individuals.
but today 1t is being tested in indus
trial and economic circles.
Doctor Hanson declared religious
instruction should not be left entirely
to the Sunday school DenominatfonaI
cooperation in conducting community
training schools, night classes, cam
paigns for increased and average at
tendance, daily vocation Bible schools
and conferences were recommended.
Denominations must overcome
their rivalry, and prejudices of ma
tons and races must be thrown aside
to save the world" he asserted. I'VE
need q generation of Christians taught
from childhood that the Sermon on
the Mount should be the doctrine of
the whole world"
He stated that there are twenty
seven million children in America
who are not attending any Sunday
school and that "eight million chill
dren under 10 years old are in non
Christian homes"
Sunday school attendance in the
United States in 1921 increased more
than one million, in Protestant
and more than 100000 Sun
day school pupils Joined the Metho-
dist Episcopal church, the speaker
said. Sunday schools now have re-
gained all they lost in membership
during the World war, he declared
there now being 364,550 Sunday
schools with a total enrolment OF
$50, 600 in this country.

FIERY, ITCHING SKIN
IS QUICKLY SOOTHED
WITH SULPHUR

Mentho-Sulphur, a pleasant cream,
will soothe and heal skin that is ir-
ritated or broken out with eczema;
that is covered with ugly rash or
pimples. or is rough or dry. Nothing
subdues fiery skin eruptions so quick
ly, says a noted skin specialist.
The moment this sulphur prepara-
ton is applied the itching stops and
after two or three applications. the
eczema is gone and the skin is de-
lightfully clear and smooth. Sulphur
is SO precious as skin remedy be-
cause 1t destroys the parasites that
cause the burning, itching or disfigure-
ment. Mentho-Sulphur always heals
eczema right up.
A small jar of Mentho-Sulphur may
be had at any good drug store.-Adv.

FOR RETAIL. BOARD
Merchants Should Be Ex-
amined for License Also.
Doctors, Lawyers and Others
Why Not Business Men9

Washington. Kan, March 30
Licensing of retailers by the state is
advocated by Dale A Resting, secre-
tary of the Kansas Retailers Assoc
citation.
Secretary Resting declares the large
number of business failures is due
principally to inefficiency which would
be eliminated by the licensing plan.
.Altho there is no present agitation
for licensing of retailers, Resing be-
lieves such a plan will be adopted in
Kansas and other states within a dec
ade.
We have a state charter board
which decides whether or not a COM
munity is large enough to support an
other bank" said Secretary Resing
why should not the same principle
be adopted in other lines of business
Under present conditions anyone
with a few hundred dollars and the
inclination can open a store. A farmer,
for instance, who may be expert as an
agriculturist, moves to town and
starts a little grocery. Oftentimes he
knows nothing about the business and
usually he fails. Because of his lack
of knowledge, the inefficient retailer
may try to sell on too small a mar
gin This means not. only ruin to
himself, but possibly to strong bust
ness men, his competitors"
Kansas according to Secretary
which licensing of retailers was sug-
gested. The now non-existent Kan
sas Retail Grocers' association passed
resolutions at a convention a few
years ago endorsing the principle.
Prof. Harold Whitehead, head of the
department of sales relations OF the
college of business administration of
Boston university, himself an expert
enced merchant, advocates a state
license for any person who intends to
open a retail store. He would require
a thoro examination to determine
whether the applicant understands the
of retailing. He would have
a board composed of experts to con-
duct the examination.
Ignorance of retailing principles is
responsible for more than Sc per cert
Of all failures Professor Whitehead \
stated. Fourteen per cent of failures
are due to faults of character. Thus
so per cent of failures are due to the
Individual. In other words, about 20
per cent of all failures in retail stores
ire due to the Ignorance, laziness, caro-
essness and other faults of the people
who are trying to run them. We
license engineers. accountants, law
yers, doctors, pharma cists, dentists, |
src balmers. bond statesmen, Insurance |
agents, plumbers and men in many |
