as did San Francisco when it collect
ed in a $3.50, 900 fire caused by an
earthquake which in many instances
would probably have nullified the re-
sponsibility of the insurance compan-
les if they had wished to stand on
technicaEities. They did not do this
they paid the loss.
Seventeen years later a $10,000,000
fire wipes out fifty-two blocks in
Berkeley and insurance money again
repairs the, damage.
Surprising California had been load
ed with state insurance and such loss
es instead of being distributed in com
panies all over the world, had been
borne entirely by home people? What
would have happened to insurance pol
icies of insured or to taxpayers? One
or the other would have suffered a
crushing loss,
The fact that San Francisco's in
surance was scattered over the world
saved; insurance companies from
bankruptcy and consequently saved
San Francisco.
The insurance premiums from the
rest of the world are paying the fire
losses for the San Francisco Bay dis
trict If San Francisco paid $4,000
900 year in premiums to insurance
companies, it would take fifty years
to repay its one great fire loss.
Agitators fayoring state insurance
should look at the figures from Hi
nois where out of s4O,OOO,OOO paid in
premiums by Illinois citizens, $4,000
600 remained in the state, while out
of the $2,OOO,OOO remaining, compan-
les made per cent as underwriting
profit.

STUMBLING BLOCKS

We feeble, unsophisticated Chris
tians are falling over stumbling
blocks that should be removed.
The first Is the stone of inactivity,
inertia. There are more dead people
sitting In peWs unburied than at any
period in the last hundred years.
Oh, for good live undertaken to
gather up the corpses in the pews
of the churches and bury them get
them out of the way. Poor, strug-
Cling Christians are falling over the
inactive, the dead
The stone Of insincerity, or per-
functoriness, should be removed;
people who speak in the mechanical,
perfunctory, insincere manner. The
very choice is mechanical, the whole
effort disgusting. We want people
who are on fire, who believe and
are sincere, who would die for their
belief.

who care for themselves, self-cen-
tered, self-interested, self-opinion-
ated, cursed with selfishness, make
great big stone in the way Of
struggling Christians.
The stone of worldliness. Two
men who claim to be Christians sit
down at the lunch-cOunter and shake
dice with two unsaved men, They
gamble for their lunch, they gamble
for cigars, they are inconsistent,
cursed with worldliness The poor,
struggling Christian wants to know
why he has to fall over such in
order to make progress.
The stone of unbelief. There is
too much doubt, too much question
ing, too much hesitating. The world
needs positive Christians, powerful
men and women, not only to teach
the gospel to the world, but to clear
the road for struggling Christians
who are vending their way toward
the eternal city Of happiness and
reward. Remove such stones at
once.

THE MESSAGE

Apparently President Coolidge,
like General Grant, will fight out a
campaign along the line he believes
is right. His message is simple and
straightforward In his discussion of
national issues he considers the pub
lie interest ahead of his personal poll
teal ambitions
He caters to no class to secure
votes. He adopts Secretary Melons
plan for tax reduction with unquali-
fled approval. He does not sidestep
the bonus issue to which he is oppos-
ed, but he advocates adequate and
generous treatment for disabled form
er service men. He favors a world
court with reservations clearly in
dicating our refusal to adhere to the
League of Nations" He discusses tar
iff, railroad and prohibition questions
without evasion and does not stradle
on any issue.
He makes a direct appeal for the
farmer and suggests remedies for his
troubles. He would limit immigration
and inspect it at its source. BY con
stitutional amendment he would pro-
hibit further issuance Of tax-exempt
bonds He would dispose of the Mus
Gle Shoals project and instead Of
making the compensation the govern
ment receives from it the paramount
issue, he would have adequate cove
nants in the lease or sale that the
parties getting the property shall car
ry to a successful conclusion expert
ments to produce low-priced nitrates
for the direct benefit of farmers.
In writing his message, President
Coolidge seemed to be considering all
the people, not any one class or any
one political party. His courage in
stating his convictions appeals to
every fair minded man regardless Of
his politics.

for questioning his right to hold bare
foot dancing and "other types" in his
church He referred to his recent con-
troversy with Bishop Manning, in
which the latter called DR.. Guthrie's
conduct "scandalous,' and said: The
criticism is the result of postwar psy-
chology the habit of interfering with
other peoples business"
DR.. Grant Comments
on Bishops Power
DR.. Grant in his pulpit at the
Church of the Ascension had this to
say with regard to the bishops who
ratified the declarations of the Apos-
ties Greed in a recent council at Dali
/ las, Tevas:
"a great many clergymen and even
bishops do not accept the point of
view of this council SO called, and
made up of sixty-three bishops, and
do not think all of them agree with
what they later said. So here are
less than sixty bishops sending out
something addressed to the whole
church,
After quoting from the pastoral
letter sent out by the bishops, in
which they spoke of the widespread
distress and disturbance of mind
among many earnest church people, Z
he declared:
1 interpret it as the distress of a
great many people who are given
things to believe when they are young
that they cannot believe when they
are DID,
Meanwhile bewildered men and wo
men, accepting the Bible as literal,
are wondering if minister should
continue to occupy the pulpit of a
church whose beliefs and traditions
have been believed and followed for
generations without question when he
no longer believes in them himself, or
should he gracefully resign that a
teacher of the faith may take his
place; or are we coming to new re-
ligion?

HUMANE THOUGHT

1t is very human to think of our
possessions as absolutely our own,
and there are some who still adhere
to this opinion. The thoughtful per-
son, however, will realize that this
view point is wrong, and that to seek
to follow it will cause conflict and
difficulty.
The courts have repeatedly held
that the ownership of property and
business, and even our personal lib
erty are dependent upon the general
public welfare. Whenever our pfi-
waite interests conflict with the inter-
ests of the public, our interests must
yield.
1t is now well established point Of
law that whatever is damaging to
public morality and decency may be
stopped regardless of the individual
ownership involved. It is along this
line of reasoning that the law forbids
cruel treatment of dumb animals.
Cruelty and neglect of dumb ami
mails is wrong, more that that, It's
constitutes a bad example to the
youth who witness it. It is demoraliz-
ing and injurious to children who
should be taught that kindness and
gentleness are the leading virtues of
good character.
Therefore, when we are confronted
by men who say that their animals
are their own property and that they
may do with them as they please,
we may deny the assertion No per-
son has the moral or legal right to
mistreat his animals, and the law will
protect the animals from injury.
Further, the state may take neglected
animals from their owners and feed
and take care of them at the latters'
expense.
After all, we are but stewards of
our possessions and entitled to their
benefits only as long as we do right.

WITH POOR GRACE

A prominent San Francisco citizen
in a recent public address alleged
that because of a fire insurance trust
San Francisco staggered under a
heavy burden and that money paid
for insurance premiums, instead of
remaining at home, was distributed
all over the world. The mythical
trust was in his imagination only.
No city in the world has profited
so largely by fire insurance payments

WHITE COLLAR JOBS

For weeks | sought with diligence
for some young man to fix my fence
that sadly needs repair; to build a
cottage for my dog and one to house
my Hampshire hog from evenings
fetid air. Tho idle youths are thick
as fieas and / have plead on Bonded
knees, they laugh me plumb to scorn,
such kind of labor always calls tor
bingham shirt and overalls- the
garb by labor worn, Nay, n2.y,' they
cry, go take your jobs to ordinary
working sfobs, They're not for us
you know; as graduates of P. & G..
we couldn't do 'em, can't you see, so
take your jobs and blow" The world
is full of such punk chaps who on the
lookout are for snaps and do not
care for toll And tho / offer thirty
bob as daily wage upon the job, their
fingers they won't soil. Nay, they
won't soil their dainty paws by u.s.
ing hammer, nails and saws, or SHOW
els small or great; down in some pool
room they abide to call "the four ball
in the side''-and dad must pay the
freight. The labor is noble thing
and one of which the poets sing I'M
til they get the Group, not one of
these young husky gents will conde-
scend to fix my fence or build my
hog coop. A plague on all such fool
ish wights who sleep of days and
roam Of nights; their dads should
stop their dole; and make EN- hustle
forth each day to shovel gravel, sand
or clay or unload cars of coal-Ex.

AMERICAN TELEPHONE SERVICE

Nowhere else is there any such
telephone development or good tele-
phone service as in the United States
and nowhere else is the telephone so
much used, so well used
This statement has been heard be-
fore and will be heard again. AS the
man who gazed in unwilling wonder
at the ship in the bottle remarked,
the trouble with it is, it's so.
When we feel like kicking at our
telephone service it is time to go
abroad and try it there. One would
never kick again.

RADIO EDUcATES TIE PEOPLE
The educational value of the radio
to families in their homes and on the
farms is becoming more fully appre-
ciated. From one Western broadcast
ing station people in la cities and
towns, and thousands of farm homes
in the country enjoy daily entertain
ment.
Lectures from great educational
centers scattered over thirty-one
states are heard from enc super-sta-

A family in Ferndale, California
hears concerts from Portland, Oregon,
and farmers at Livingstone, Montana
enjoy concerts from Des Moines, Iowa
The pleasure that a whole family
gets from nationwide music and lee
lures is intensified by the fact that
they have been deprived of these
things until the discovery of the radio

LIFE WITH PLANTS and ANIMALS

LIFE WITH PLANTS and ANIMALS
People who have never tried life
on a farm have no idea of the salts
faction that comes to normal mind
ed man or woman from living with
growing things. There is wonderful
sense of companionship in farm ami
mails. The man who treats them kind
ly finds they are warm friends, and
there is something almost human in
the response that they give to the
considerate master.
Even the flowers and vegetables in
the garden seem almost to have per
sonality. They make a grateful re-
spouse to the effort put forth to res
cue them from weeds and to give
them water in the dry times, and
seem to say, Thank you," by redoubl
ing their efforts to grow and flourish.
There are many rewards of happiness
in this contact with nature, which is
more satisfying than artificial pleas
