Religious Freedom.

The following article about the
Mennonites is an interesting commen-
tary on religious freedom in the United
States which was founded with the
distinct provision in it's laws that we
should have entire freedom of religious
belief Mennonites have been coming
to the United States for number of
years, believing that here they would
surely find religious freedom. The
world war taught them different and
now they are leaving the States for
a country that promises true freedom
of conscience.
One hundred and twenty-five Men
nonites, vanguard Of 10000 of their
sect, passed through Minneapolis late
yesterday on their way from Canada
to Chihuahua, Mexico. Mexico, their
leaders declared, is the only state
which allows complete religious liberty.
The emigration of the Mennonites fol-
lows the lead of a branch of the Latter
Day Saints, who some years ago found
ed a Mormon colony. =
For years Mennonites throughout
the United States and Canada have
endeavored to found colony where
they might all settle together. Their
effort has cost them thousands of dol
lars. In 1911 the Mennonites were
tleeced out of almost $1,000,OOO by a
Cincinnati real estate firm, who sold
them desert land in Arizona which
proved to be cactus and sand.
The sect has much in common with
the Dunkards, being opposed to war
and ostentatious display of ornaments.
Brightly colored clothing is forbidden,
and many male members of the sect
are opposed to the wearing Of neck
ties. A branch of the sect do not
wear buttons, fastening their clothes
together with hooks and eyes. Old
Colony Mennonites, to which branch
of the church the Canadian group be-
longs, forbid automobiles and tele-
phones. No more industrious farmers
are known in the United States than
the Mennonites, and in their Idaho
and Washington colonies they are un-
usually wealthy. !.
Arrangements have been made with
the Mexican government whereby they
are permitted their own schools, ac-
cording to Herman Hildebrant, the
leader.

The Cost of q Frowm.

A man went into store the other
day to buy some goods. The pur.
chases he had in mind amounted to
several hundred dollars.
But as he entered the store he met
the proprietor. The storekeeper was
evidently in bad humor, and answer
ed the customers salutation with a sur
ly nod. The visitor looked around a
little, made an excuse, and then left.
Perhaps the storekeeper had some
real trouble on his mind. Many
things might have been going wrong.
But the fact is sthat he lost large sale,
with a substantial profit, because he
forgot to greet his customer with a
smile and a pleasant salutation.
1t would have cost no more to smile
than to frown.

There are some people in the world
who are not happy if anybody else is.
The Anh-Lynch5mg Bill.

The anti-lynching bill has passed the
lower house Of congress, but this does
not necessarily mean thatSitg will Be-
come law. It may be talked todeath
in the senate. The flibuster is still an
effective weapon in the upper house.
There is opposition to the bill, of
course. The opposition is based upon
the ground that such a law would be
an unwarranted invasion Of states
rights. Nobody can justify lynchings.
But those who opposed such law on
the federal statute books should be-
stir themselves in the event that other
lynchings occur while the measure is
waiting action by the senate. # the
states had been doing their full duty
in Furnishing lynchers this bill never
would have appeared in congress.

The Bonus Problem.

Members Of congress and the admin
istration are between the devil and
the deep blue sea on the bonus ques-
tion. Ex-service men are clamoring,
for bonus, or adjusted compensation
while treasury officials say such legis-
lation cannot be provided unless there
is to be great increase in the burden
of taxation.
The people are tired of taxes. They
are demanding reduction, not increases.
Members of congress want to hold
their jobs, as do other people. What
would you do if you were congress
man?
