NO TIME FOR QUIBBLING
Bishop Freeman's View of Contro-
versy Among Churchmen

Chicago, Jan 7 clubbing Of
churchmen about points of belief and
creed seem out of place in a world
calling for practical religion to be
applied to- everyday life, Bishop James
E. Freeman of Washington, D. c.,
declared in an address last night before
the Chicago Evening Club on the
"Perils of Inaction."
He said there is now a great spir-
itual awakening of the public that
has made men more interested in
religion than any other single subject
Form and convention should be set
aside, Bishop Freeman said, to bring
greater simplicity, reality andI tender
ness into the worship that people are
seeking.
"Srnug indifference, dissatisfaction
and conccit' on the part of nation
or individual were condemned by the
Bishop as evidence OF moral and spir-
itual stagnation.

BIBLE READING

II there IS any one thing from a
human standpoint, he men of this
country need more than any other, it
is the habit OF daily Bible reading.
Get King James version of the
Bible, or if you prefer, an American
| Revised edition and read one or two
chapters every day. You will witness
a marvellous change in your own con-
dltlon, IN your ability to control your
self, and in your influence and power
over your friends, your employees and
your business.
A large amount of the present rest
lessness of today, mentally, physical
| ly and socially, can be attributed to
the lack of Bible knowledge, Bible
reading and Bible study
The Bible is supernatural. Do not
read it in a careless, superficial man
ner, but read it carefully, thoughtfully,
praycrfully. Read the Books of the
Pentatcuch and the four Gospels to-
| gcthcr. Read Daniel and Revelation;
then read the Epistles. Read the book
OF John every month. Read the little
Book of Collossans every day.
Read the Epistles They are the
| = '''NN' anu odiNiISo III lIC iGStIIl CN-
eryday Christian. Forget the trash of
the papers; forget the funnies and the
ioollshness of the daily press.
The most-up-to-datc book in the
world is the Bible. Read it, study it.,
mediate upon its teachings and you
will become a stronger man, physical
ly, mentally, spiritually, morally, So
clally, and every other way.
Get copy of the New Testament,
carry it in your pocket, make it your
habit to give copy of the New Test
amcnt to some one every week. Be a
real propagation Of the Bible. 1t is the
worlds greatest blessing, and it salts
tlcs mans greatest need at the pres
ent moment
Read your Bible, read it daily, read
it praycrfully.

Of the 22,165 plans submitted. Plan
Number 1889 is "the best practicable

Anese plans come from every group
In American life. Some are obviously
from lifelong students Of history and
international law. Some are from per-
sons who have studied little. but who
have themselves seen and felt the
horror Of war--or who are even now
living out its tragedy.
But among them all are these dom
inant currents: that, If war ia hon
estly to be prevented, there must be
a face-about on the part of the nations
In their attitude toward It; that by
some progressive agreement the man
ufacture and purchase Of the NUM-
tons of war must be limited or stop
ped; that while no political mechan-
ism alone will insure cooperation
among the nations, there must be
some machinery Of cooperation IL the
will to cooperate Is to be made efHec-
tive; that mutual counsel among the
nations 10 the real hope for bringing
about the disavowal of war by the
open avowal Of its real causes and
open discussion Of tham: and finally
that there must be some means Of
defining. recording, interpreting and
developing the law Of nations.

Wisconsin delegation will ask the
Republican national convention to
formally condemn the official acts of

This is disclosed in an official copy

that Daugherty and Fall "be forever
debarred from holding any position
of honor or trust within the 7gfS
either of the Republican party or OF
any future Republican administra-

The insurgents also would have
President Coolidge summon congress

The convention will be asked BY
