those who for one reason or an- other are submerged, Here is the great opportunity for extra-o -occupa- tional service. Invest your surplus in the salvaging of humanity, great reclamation service which ought to awaken and stir the immaglnation Of any man.
 "The next great task for America is for unequals to learn to live to- gether. We will perhaps forever have different classes Of people. It will not do to level everybody down to the lowest as the Bosheyists seek to do. We cannot pull everything up to the level of tho highest, But our inequalities will cease to be a fostering source of friction when every man catches the idea of serv- lee and puts it to work, The adding machine has been perfected and it is marvel. more accurate than the human mind It took brains and in- ventive genius to put 1t together. It will take more brains to invent a dividing machine, something that will show US how 10 divide what we have so that as nearly as possible justice will be done. Too many peo- pie who are experts at adding, have not learned to divide. They never seemed 10 get beyond addition in mathematics. The true Rotarian is always looking for an opportunity to divide up his profits with those who are in need, 10 lend a helping hand.
 "I predict that Rotary with its background of the golden rule and the Sermon on the Mount, when 1t reaches its full maturity and gets in- to It's full stride will be a new reli- zion with a burning enthusiasm for Humanity. the religion for which the modern world waits, a religion free 1 from the traditions which hamper many of our churches, free from stiff formalities, free from ecclestiasism and theological disputes: a religion that has discovered that the only way to serve God acceptably is to serve men faithfully.
 "As men, we seek not happiness in life but satisfaction. We think we are in search Of happiness, but we are not after the thing generally thought of as happiness. We seek a larger and better thing-it Is satisfac ton. This is what people choose their calling for go into business and get married too. Experience proves that it can come in its fullest meas ure only through some form of hu- man service. God has so made us we cannot escape It."

JAPAN TO SPEND
HALF BILLION
Reconstruction Program Calls for
Expenditure of Large Sum
in Five Years.

Washington.-Conditi in Japan
are gradually becoming settled. Mill
tary law has been discontinued and
sufficient temporary structures have
been provided to care for all who were
without shelter, says q cable received
by the Far Eastern division of the De
| partment of Commerce from its Tokyo
representative. 1t Is unofficially esti-
| mated that reconstruction expendi-
lures during the first five years will
reach only S525,OOO,OOO, of which
amount 1915, 100000 will be spent in
Tokyo and $150,O0O,OOO In Yokohama,
indicating that either the damage
caused by the earthquake was not as
great as 1t appeared, or that the pro-
gram of reconstruction will be carried
out over long period of years.
To Postpone All Loans.
1t is stated in Tokyo that the 1924
1925 budget estimates will be reduced
to about 1,276,0OO,OOO yen, compared
with the current budget estimate of
,1,346, 100000. This decrease of TO-
100000 from the current budget fig
ures will go long way toward offset
ting an estimated decrease in revenue
during the coming year of about 1884,
100000 yen. The minister of finance
announces that all schemes, including
loans planned prior to the earthquake,
VIII be postponed during the present
