 DR. EDM0NDS SAYS
Presbyterian Minister Tells Of Modern Power In His
 Sunday Talk

"Mr. Henry Ford, I have heard, has made a bid on Muscle Shoals, and son.e people think he will buy 1t and do great things there, but 1t is my opinion that nobody will get 1t until it is finished" declared Dr. H. M. Ed munds, pastor of the Independent Presbyterian church, in sermon Sunday evening.
 Dr. Edmunds spoke to an audience which nearly filled the Lyric theatre. His subject was, Ford and Muscle Shoals"
 The minister. speaking from opin- ions formed and observations made at a recent visit to the Muscle Shoals district, said he was thrilled con stantiy at the enormous possibilities of the development.
 Ut Is one of the greatest sources of power In the country" he told his audience. This is a great age of power; future generations will look on this as the age in which power was discovered. l mean personal power as well as mechanical power.
 Looking on the great dam, which which 4,500 men are doing work. which cost SS,0o0,O00 a year, I was gilled with the new word, Power.
 q could feel the enormous quan- titles of power emanating from it's plants and being carried off through the wires.
 "Everything Is changing; we arc just discovering the real meaning of personal power; psychologists are beginning to tell us about the 'primi- tive passions that are the source of stupenduous and unlimited personal power. We are beginning to find out, through these scientists and their wonderful instruments for measuring the personal power, all about ourselves.
 q am just beginning to see the secret of the inspiration which Jesus Christ was responsible for-He re- leased enormous quantities of power.
 This Is the day of the subcon- scious mind. We are learning about these primitive passions'-fear, an- ger, the herd instinct and the sex instinct.
 There is definite place for these primitive passions in our life in Christ. We are beginning to learn how they can be made to constitute great forces for living the life of Christ. The way to have power is to be reposed, and after we have power we must use 1t for God.'

The Particulars, Please, David

In his latest public lecture at San Diego David Starr
Jordan president emeritus of Stanford university
served
"The world has to get conception of Cod"
1.-THE hope of every nation lies in the training of its
children and the segregation of its unfit and keeping only
the kind of people that ought to live"
1t sounds if Brother Jordan would like to start
something and it may be interesting to follow him lit
tie way-in his thinking only
First thing it strikes folks moderately weposted that
new conception of God is close to an impossibility
Pretty nearly everything conceivable by the human mind
has been proposed or warmed-over as conception Of
Cod 1t is situation that has been prevalent ever since
the beginning of recorded human history If Dr. Jor
dan has got new he ought to spring it in detail
for the sake of poor ratified miserable sinners It
would be positively cruel to keep such genius under
bushe.
Brother Jordans idea of keeping only the people who
ought to live will at least make strong appeal To folks
who think they the only who ought to live but
here too there is lacking plan and the proposition dis
closes great weakness thru absence of specifications
Would the worthy college president emeritus suggest n
Board of Removers"? Would he guarantee that anv
such board would not fall into the hands Of the nol
ticans Of the fit among us who habitallv corner
our coal wheat, cotton railroads and such? We simnlv
emphasize our demand that college emeritus who nro
poses new God and judiciary life tenure for us
