decision was born OF that instant.
With a cry he flung himself back

followed the sound Of his heavy

With the words he let 1all his

BY JAMES w. DEAN

EW YORK, April 12.-If you
read A. S. NJ. Hutchison's IF
Winter Comes somewhat in
haste simply to learn the story and
with not much attention to its very
excellent detail, you have about the
same impression one has in seeing
the stage play made from the novel
In the book characters were built
up and psychology developed through
slight but revealing situations. The
quality of subtlety achieved through
deft phrasing is only partly trans
posed TO the stage.
All of which is not intended as state
ment that IF Winter Comes" is not
a good play. 1t is an excellent play
but in the field of drama it falls short
Of the height gaineI by the novel in
the field of literature.
1t would not have been practicable
to have transferred all of the story's
action 20 the stage and so the play
proceeds at a faster clip than the
pace of the novel
Even though the play is speeded
up the poetry OF Hutchison's lines is
not lost. Many of the lines in the
book were poetry set in prose form.
AS Cyril Maude. playing the role of
Mark Sabre. speaks his lines many
of them fall with poetic cadence. The
rhythmic measure of the authors
lines is more evident on the stage
than in the book. Clemence Danes

The path sinners must take if they
would be saved was pointed out as
the same for people OF all walks OF
life and personalities by DR.. E. j.
Bulgin. evangelist. at Cadle Taber-
nacle. Wednesday night.
Taking as his subject What Shall
: Do to Be Saved" the evangelist
said the sinner must: First, know he
is lost; \ second, want to be saved
third. quit SHINING. and fourth, obey
and praise God.
DR.. Bulgin based his sermon on
guidance.
Your VIII Set for God
People ask me how they know they
have been saved" the evangelist said.
L can't tell them. for people react
differently under the same circum-
stances, but I know you are saved
the instant your will is set for God.
You get your salvation first, and then
your reaction is secondary"
The path Of hayward souls back to
Christ must be surmounted by the
three Rs to repent, to restore and to
repair" he said.
Every sinner must realize his hope
less condition; know he Is doomed, and
desire to be saved the evangelist
continued. His quitting of sin is re-
pentance-'
Restoration and reparation will fol-
low in order. Bulgin said, as the sin
1er obeys God and praises Him.
Community Workers
Bulgin dealt blow at Community
workers who have time for every
kind Of activity except the church.

enjoy the companionship of Christ -

eve are told by the American
Child Health Association that millions
of school children in America are in
immediate need of attention to their
health problems, many of them suf-
fering from serious defects. More
startling still is the fact that 200, 900
infants die each year in this country
and that 10000 women during the
same period die from causes connect
ed with childbirth. Further we learn
that half of these deaths could be
prevented by proper care. There is
no question as to whether it is worth
while. No sane person would con-
slider for a moment opposing the pro-
gram of such an organization. The
problem is not whether the work is
worthy of support but how much
support it shall receive.
eff there were no undernourish-
ment in America, if all men and wo-
men were sound of body and mind,
there would be a new degree of ply
steal perfection that would give this
country an even higher place among

them for the future. Then we shall
have a race of superior men and

THAT CHEEKY HELLO

Say helloi Say it to the next per
son you meet, whether you know him
or not, say it to the boy going to
school, the little girl in her starched
pinafore, the youth and the maiden,
the man and the woman, the grand
father and his wife. Make folks feel
good. Cut out formal "How-do-you-
dos" and ponderous "Good mornings"
Tell folks "hello."
For there's something appealing
about it, something human and win
ming about it, something cordial and
warm and kind and personal about
it which throws off dignity and finds
the heart.
"How-do-you-do is for indoors and
wGood Morning" is too polite. GLOW
are your" is misleading, not always
sincere, often perfunctory. But
Hello" says something. 1t speaks of
goodfellowship. 1t appeals to youth
and vigor, smacks of the outdoors.
1t indicates freedom and scorns con-
vention. 1t laughs at churlishness
and opens the windows of the soul
to JOY and gladness.
"Hello" is music to the stranger,
a cares to a friend, a gentle rebuke
to an enemy, and a welcome to all.
1t cannot conceal distrust and enmity
like its ponderous relatives; it comes
with a smile and breathes a laugh.
Few can resist it; none can be offend
ed by it; it has nothing to fear and it
is easy to say.
Comradeship requires it; friendli-
ness thrives upon it; suspicion fees
from it; love is born with it.
Hello" is our national word. 1t
is the key to many riddles and the
to many situations. 1t springs
an impulsive nature and meets
similar impulse in the air. 1t cheers
he lonely, brings smiles to a frowning
face, lifts the burdens of care.
Say "Hellow

CONQUEST OF WHEAT RUST
(St. Paul Pioneer Press

~ @N
Hope for a substantial reduction
in the amount of loss which the farm
ers of this region annually suffer from
the black wheat rust is held out by
DR.. E. C. Stakman. This promise,
however has only limited application.
The barberry campaign is not COM
pleted. There are localities where
the bush still thrives and still men
aces the crop. But in those districts
where the eradication has been
completed, there should be a distinct
gain at the next harvest, other things
being equal. The campaign will not
have covered the northwest until the
1924 season, and there remains
enough barberry, particularly in No.
and South Dakota, to cause one of
the dread epidemics if weather con-
ditions are, from the point of view
of the hungry rust fungus, right.
The moral is plain. The campaign
must go on with all possible vigor,
which means that not only must the
state and Federal agents do their part
as they undoubtedly will, but the
farmers must cooperate. Scientists
have rarely agreed with the same
unanimity as do the plant pathology
lists on the merits of the strategy that
has been adopted against the black
rust. The relation between the bar
berry bush and the black rust has
been positively established, and, if
science did not have all the proofs
it needs in the laboratory, the exper-
fence of the European sections where
eradication of the bush has been fol
lowed by a complete elimination of
the disease, would be positive proof
that the state and federal govern
ments are on the right track.
1t cannot be promised that when
the last bush is uprooted in this ter
ritory, the black stem rust will be no
more, for the southern winds do GER
tainly carry the disease north from
the fields where the life cycle of the
destructive fungus is not dependent
upon the same barberry phase as here
but the danger of serious loss will
have been dissipated.
