ciety largely rests upon their desire

of the United States suddenly de-

were undesirable they could, within

every civilized man and woman on
the globe and yet the offenders might
not have violated single law.
The foundation of society is in a
minimum of statutory law strictly ad-

laws generally ignored. A great deal
more than we think, the cure for an

legislature.
The trouble with nearly every
American community is that it does
not administer the laws that it has.
The idea of nearly every American
community is that it fails because il
does not have proper laws. When
1T finds that the human equation hes
stopped one machine it builds a new
machine and hopes that because this
one is new it will run -hhere the other
did not.
When an i'll is discovered the ques-
ton is not what is wrong with the
people involved, but what is wrong
with the machine which they do no;
run. A new machine is ordered, but
the same people run it in the same
fashion to the same result.
Therefore the American nation il
! its Federal and state capacities makes
laws annually and biennially by the
tens of thousands and the America,

Some centuries before the Christian

government was not established by

protection of life and property are
required, but if the majority of people
wanted to break these laws the laws

chapter voted to lend support to the
institution.
A consignment of towels and wash
cloths was sent to the National Farm

has large enrolment of students who
receive their instruction gratis and the
expense of supplies is met in large
measure by contributions, similar to
that sent yesterday, by various organi-
cations throughout the country.
Final plans were made for supper
to be served in the clubrooms at $3.50
Sunday night. Immediately after sup
per an address will be made by Rabbi
Hirschberg of Temple Emmanuel, Mil

community are urged to attend.
