1T am como that they might have
life. and that they might have it
more abundantly."
This verse shows in bold contrast
the purpose of Jesus and that Of the
thief. The latter comes but to bring
destruction, while Jesus comes TO
bring not alone life. but life more
abundantly.
There has been and is stin preva-
lent n m~isconception OF religion. in
that It is regarded as something to
have to die with but all such be
levers forget that Jesus went
about doing good" trying to per
suade men to enter into the more
abundant life, not that we might die
but that we might live. Some te.
lay in coming to Christ because they
want to have a good time a while
longer. But let me ask who is hap
pier than the Christian Religion
fits into the needs OF all Of every
age.
II there be any amusements from
which Christians ought to abstain
themselves, It is because they find
their joy in something higher and
naturally the more objectionable
ones arc crowded out. 1 saw some
men the other day shooting dice in
great glee. and 1 thought of the
meaning OF this text. Jesus came
that men might find Joy in some
thing higher and more ennobling
than shooting eice. He came that
they might find Joy in serving him
and the interests OF his kingdom.
rather than the common and frivol-
Gus things OF life.
There is another class who look
upon religion as narrowing in Its
Influence. a word to them. These
forget that region is the broadest
OF all creeds. for It embraces all of
life here and hereafter. It is as deep
as the heart, wide as the world. and
high as heaven. Paul tells us that
Jesus came to bring life and immor-
tnlity to life. You will notice that
life comes before Immortality but
the text comes from a higher au-

Good Samaritans then and now

Good Samaritans then and now
The Christian minister of today
could perform no greater service
than to extricate Jesus from the
maze of confused theology which
past generations have compiled. 1t
almost makes one heart-sick to find
that the New Testament record re-
veals the fact that tho religious
men Of his day were his most subtle.
effective and base enemies. Rab'
binic PHILOSOPHERS. theologies and
traditions had so muddled and con
fused the plain law of Moses that
when Jesus gave 1t its original and
spiritual Interpretation, the Rabbits,
the chief priests and the whole
ecclesiastical hierarchy set on him
to defeat him.
And so il is today. Preachers
and teachers who give a spiritual
Interpretation Of the Bible r set
upon by the same vicious circle of
l~iberalists, who are forever defend
ing the faith of the fathers 10 the
exclusion Of the faith of the sons
The fundamentallst of today is the
same chap that said I'VE are of
Moses"
To many today Jesus is but a
historic figure mumified and EN-.
balmed in ancient reed and the
ology. To honest, fearless thinking
people Jesus is the greatest living
pswer. tho greatest reality today.
The samaritan asked the eternal
and universal question OF the ages
The Samaritan was n dog. The
child of an inter-marriage between
Jew and Gentle. The lawyer was a
blue blooded a~ristocratic Hebrew.
Jesus. the mildest spirit that ever
trod the soil of this planet gave
expression to the cutting u%tte-ance
go and do thou likewise"
The modern Samaritan will not
long satisfy himself with binding
the bruised, paying the bills of de
generates. he will clean UP the
Jericho road.
There VIII be no war in a world
OF goodwill. No strikes and lock-
outs in a world of economic Justice
No heresy trials in a world of

AS this regiment is quartered in

they are accepted.
Because of the ease with which

Department has directed the &C.

FREE SUSPECTS
IN Staying
Of MAID
Love Was Motive for Killing OF
Dorothy Kaufman, Police
Now Believe.
BY International News Service.

=" SCARSDALE, N Y, July 9.-New
mystery today curtained tha ap.
parently unsolvable motive" behind
the murder OF pretty twenty one
year-old Dorothy Kaufman, Men,
MONTE girl, stabbed to death at the
country estate of Magrude Craig
head here.
did the murderer rejected
sutton, perhaps religious fanatic
seek some letter or document In
Miss Kauffman's possession?"
Sheriff George Werner, in charge
Of the investigation, asked this queS.
ton today.
Imprint Is Found.
The bloody imprint of thumb
clearly marked on the lid OF q sta
tionary box in which Miss Kaufman
treasured love messages couched IN
deeply religious language, gave rise
to the new theory.
The box lid was found beneath the
bed in the room where Miss Kauff"
man had been stabbed to death.
The box, with it's love messages,
was in Miss Kauffman's trunk.
Miss Kaufman was known in
the Scarsdale district as girl who
never cared for men. Yet, in her
treasure box, Werner found not
only love notes. but the writings
of the girl Observation-Disclosures
verse, and essays on subjects deal.
ing with love.
A mysterious Roy appears to
have been closest to the girls
heart. Most OF her love poems
are written around this man. One
reads, in part:
But Roy dear is 80 loving and
kind,
"That Mary really doesn't mind,
Hand in hand, arm in arm they
"Sweethearts cooling like doves
Don't tell me Roy can't love"
Another phase of the inquiry has
directed Werner to seek the reason
why Miss Kaufman serving as
principal of the school at She'll
town, Md, gave up her position to
become a servant.
The girl told friends here that
''disagreeable conditions" had caused
her to give up her position.
Seek Mysterious Man.
It was learned today that a mys-
terious man had visited Miss Kauff-
man at the Craighead home daily.
He said the man came from THE
South" He told several persons In
Scarsdale and was stopping in
New York.
While authorities are seeking to
run down these leads they have not
abandoned the original theory that
the girl may have been slain by q
negro, although Miss Kaufman was
not attacked, nor was anything OF
value taken from the Craighead
home.
Five men-four negroes and one
white youth-taken into custody
since the murder-have all been
absolved Of the crime.

Both in direct decisions and by

he contended, would depend on the
extent of practice Of each physician
and the method of treatment en-
ployed. The Government argued
it's right to control the quantity Of
drugs, charged DIR. Miller with ex-
cessive use and with misuse of the
drugs, and secured his conviction.
The United States Supreme Court

to prevent abuses in legitimate use

the case Of prohibition these restric.

Campbell-W Willis act. This states the
number of prescriptions physician
may have for issuance, and the
maximum quantity of liquor to be
given a patient in given period.
At the last term OF the Supreme
Court, DIR. Simon Miller, of Vicks'
