THY PEOPLE SHALL BE MY PEO-
PIE.

"Whither thou goest will 60; and
whittier thou lodgest I will lodge; thy
people shall be my people, and thy
God my God" There is one reflection
growing out of a study of the story
of Ruth so recently brought to the
attention of the church through the
Sunday school lesson. We call atten-
tion to the pledge of loyalty by Ruth,
not only to her mother-in-law, De-
borah, but to the laws and religion of
the people among whom she was go
ing as an immigrant to take up her
abode. "Thy people shall be my peo-
ple." . 1t is the only policy Ruth could
have framed and adhered to, and
lived in the peace and happiness that
was hers. The story of that beautiful
life, that harmonious adjustment, that
produced domestic and national felic-
ity and strength, is one of the most
beautiful and inspiring episodes Of an
cient history.
Ruth might have thought herself
justified had she packed up her Moa-
british gods and continued their wor-
ship among the Jehovah worshipers
of Israel. She might have intro
duced her foreign manners and Gus
toms and insisted upon the recogni-
ton of these by the people among
whom she had settled. But she rein-
quishd all these in the interest of a
larger harmony. Had she claimed
her rights, the beautiful book of
Ruth would never have been written,
or, at best, it would have furnished
a sordid record in the history of Is
rael instead of its most idyllic chap
ter.
The story has is modern applica-
tion in the United States in the light
of the serious problems of a polyglot
people whose slightest thought is in
pledging that Americas people shall
be their people, and Americas Gus
toms shall be their customs. The
pledge of citizenship means in great
number of cases little more than iv-
ing barely within the law, and with
certain national groups to disregard
the laws and customs of the land. We
hear much of late about occupatonal
blocs formed for selfish ends. These
blocs have their representatives at
Washington for Legislative purposes.
It is a dangerous tendency for ma
ton to divide into hostile groups with
the hand of each turned against all
the others.-Northwestern Christian
Advocate.

THE sYNTHEsIs OF THE SPIRIT.

THE SYNTHESIS OF THE SPIRIT.
The common school dictionary of
"synthesis" is: "a putting together;
the putting of things together to form
whole; the combination of separate
elements of thought into whole"
"The ,Synthesis of the Spirit" is
the power to coordinate the SEEM
ingly scattered, moribund units of
life into a majestic "whole" of i'm
mortality and harmony.
It is the process of separating
from the baser elements of material
ism the pure gold of transcendent
spirituality, or Immortality, and weld
ing it into a cohesive, discernible
"whole."
1t is the mystic operation whereby
the Units of Infinite (Which are eter-
nall are brought into conscious reali-
zation of themselves and their rela-
tons with each other. 1t is the mys-
terry whereby the Eternal Brotherhood
is organized and given fact and
function.
1t is of the essence of all true reli-
gion. 1t is the generic tie that binds
together and holds together the Fam
lily of the Infinite.
It is the wondrous alchemy that
separates logic and reason from So
phistry and error and reveals the
Truth.
1t is the marvellous distillation of
Love from the debris of hatred-the
rescue of the Eternal Jewel from the
feet of the roofing, earthly swine.
1t is the Word of God and the
"Sword of the Spirit" which is the
complete armory of the Man of Cali
lee and of every great Religious
Teacher of all time.
Without it the Universe is chaos.
With it Earth and Heaven are CO.
ordinate Paradises.
Without it mankind is a monster.
With it humanity becomes a house
hold of love.
It is the Talisman of Eternity.

MOTHERS CHAIR
By BERTHA INWOOD MICHAEL

By BERTHA INWOOD MICHAEL
The moonlight through my window
shines,
| Across her old wheel-chair;
1t seems that in a vision then
| l see her sitting there.
A tender smile upon her face,
She slips across the years,
And seems to say, "I'm happy, child,
So wipe away your tears"
What tender memories still cling
About that old wheel-chair;
| see the aged, wrinkled face
All framed with silver hair;
The dim gray eyes look up at me
With welcome all aglow,
The slender hands reach out to clasp
My own, as long ago.
l see her bent and feeble form
Within her old wheel-chair;
My eager arms reach out to clasp,
And find but empty air;
All, how | long for her, and miss
The voice 1 loved so we'll;
My hungry heart cries out for her
More oft than can tell.
And yet l would not call her back.
Although my heart is sad;
Because her work was finished here.
And she, I know, is glad.
But when the Lord has called mo
home,
III thank him for his care.
And then-Pll greet the one who onco
Sat in the old wheel-chair.

WASHINGTON. July %. You
would count yourself wealthy,
wouldn't you, IL you possessed land
holdings as extensive as the State Of
Texas7
Yet you might be the owner of as
much land as is contained in Texas,
Massachusetts and Maryland without
enhancing your riches. Within the
United States there are areas of prac-
ticallly worthless lands aggregating
1S2 1856 $40 acres.
These lands. Substituting the public
domain" of the United States, are
scattered through twenty-four States
Of the Union. During tho past few
years an average Of l0,0000,000 acres
q year has been opened TO settlers.
In the last ten years the public do
main, exclusive of forest reservations
and Indian reservations, has been re.
duced from 279. 927 1875 acres.
Valuable land has been practically
exhausted. demonstrating, once the
foundation Of many a small fortune,
no longer leads away from poverty.
Only those already possessing capital
can hope to cope with irrigation, trans
portation and development problems
that must be mastered before q
livelihood can be derived from farm
carved out Of what remains Of public
lands.
Such as 1t is, the land now being
thrown open to settlers is first offered
to ex.service men, Former soldiers
now have first choice on several hun
dred thousand acres in Western
States, but at the end of ninety day
period from the date of the official
openings, the general public Is per-
mitted to make homestead entries.
The State having the largest public
domain is Nevada with So, 429, 745
acres, most of which has never been

26,791 ,051 acres only partially sur
veyed. Third is California with

ACORNER
With the
FARMER
By r. WEBB SPARKS
market Editor of The Times =

Public announcement of plan by o.
E. Bradfute, president Of the Amer
lean Farm Bureau Federation, to
seek relief for wheat farmers through
extensive Use Of funds made available
by the intermediate credit act by
which 200, 100000 bushels would be
stored in good farm bins to be desig-
mated as bonded warehouses has been
submitted.
The obvious intention Of the plan
is to have wheat withheld from the
market at this time when dollar wheat
prices mean financial suicide to the
farmer. Under the terms Of the pro-
posed plan this wheat would he held
as collateral for bank loans to rs per
cent of the value of the grain, enabling
the farmer to finance himself until
such time as grain values adjust them
selves.
H. L Winters OF Thomson & Nc
Kinnon, brokers, has this 30 say re
garding the proposed plan:
Unfortunately we cannot include
Canada in this arrangement. The
Canadian farmer, with approximately
500 900, 900 bushel crop will un-
doubtedly take advantage of lessened
offerings. Also the absolute certainty
that this 100000, 900 must seek a mar
ket somewhere will undoubtedly defeat
the anticipated result Nothing but
loss by black rust or other pests will
serve to lend permanency to any ad-
vance in price.
A great deal is being written at
present on the likely necessity of
Government price fixing" provided
some other means of stabiHzing wheat
prices is found and found quickly
On the subject, most OF the leading
experts are in hearty agreement.
The result of fixed prices for wheat
could have none other than de-
rnoralizing effect upon the farmers
already depleted finances. 1t would
be reasonable TO expect that even if
a guaranteed price of 81 a bushel were
arbitrarily established by some gov
ernmental Of legislative force that the
result would work adversely for the
wheat grower.
Why? Because Immediately this
were done. prices for leading com
modities would begin a steady ad-
vance and soon surpass the purchas-
ing value OF wheat and the farmer
would be left no recourse because. Of
the limitations placed upon his prod
uct
Price fixing would offer temporary
relief, It is admitted, but the ultimate
result, judging from past experience,
would be more harmful than good. Let
the American banker step to the fore
front and assist the farmer-he will
be obliged TO face the necessity OF
doing It anyway and may just as well
do it gracefully rIow-and no Govern
ment price fixing will be necessary.
