The call of the North. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1923-1924, 1924-01-25

By w. C. Wright, Plainview, Texas
The language Of symbolism is the
most beautiful, the most impressive
and the most expressive of any lang
uage known to mankind. Who can
read the story of Noah's Ark with
out thinking of the Church; or the
story of the scapegoat, the brazen
serpent or the feast of the Passover
without thinking of the Christ who
takes away all of our iniquities and
delivers US from the bondage Of sin ?
In the sublime ceremonies of Khan
craft, I take it that we use seven
significant symbols, each of which
conveys and inculcates very beauti-
full lesson, and emphasizes a great
Khan principle, when the language Of
symbols is properly understood. They
are, in order of their Importance: The
Bible, the Cross, the Flag, the Sword,
the Water, The Robe and the Mask.
The Bible
This Book Divine signifies that
there is a God. No sane man of rea-
sonable intelligence can look upon
this sacred volume without thinking
of God as its author, righteousness
as its aim, and eternal life as it's end.
It is constant reminder that God
is our Father, life is our opportunity
and Heaven is our Home. It reveals
the way Of life and the cause of
death. 1t is lamp unto our feet, a
light unto our pathway, and the
only sure guide to right living. It
is the book or books and reveals the
only true God.
In Klavern you will always find
this wonderful Book opened at the
twelfth chapter of Romans. This is
the most practical and the most COM
plete chapter in the whole Bible for
Christian living. It is a constant re-
minder Of the tents of the Christian
religion and is a Klansman's law of
life. Every Klansman should read
it the first thing every morning and
endeavor to live by it during the day.
81 beseech you therefore brethren by
the mercies of God" that you follow
its teachings.
The Cross
Out of the wonderful story of the
sacred pages Of this old Book Divine
comes the sad, sweet story Of CAL
vary's rugged but holy cross. This
old cross is a symbol of sacrifice and
service, and sign of the Christian
religion. Sancutifed and made holy
nearly nineteen centuries ago by the
suffering and blood Of fifty million
martyrs who died in the most holy
faith, it stands in every Klavern Of
the Knights of the Ku Klux Khan as
q constant reminder that Christ is
our criterion Of character, and His
teachings our rule Of hfe-blood

NO BABY IN THE HOUSE

No baby in the house, I know,
IT'S far too nice and clean.
No toys, by careless fingers strewn,
Upon the floor are seen,
No fnger-marks are on the panes,
No scratches on the chairs;
No wooden men set in rows,
Or marshaled off in pair;
No little stockings to be darned,
All ragged at the toes
No pile of mending to be done,
Made up of baby clothes;
No little troubles to be soothed;
No little hands to fold;
No grimy fingers to be washed;
No stories to be told;
No tender kiss to be given,
No nicknames, "Dove" and Mouse"
No merry frolics after tea
No baby in the house.

ef ldIlO OF sea. IL was puICHdSeu ny
the sacrifice and blood of our faith
ers, and we have most sacredly
vowed that we will uphold and de-
fend it with our sacred honor, our
property, our blood and our lives
May we ever be true to our vow.
Under its futtering folds, as it floats
in the gentle breeze in every Klav-
ern, the Knights of the Ku Klux Khan
will forever defend the principles of
a pure Americanism, and thus per-
petuate the sacred memory of our
venerable and heroic dead.
Who can stand under these Stars
and Stripes, remembering the sacred
traditions that entwine about it's holy
past, without feeling that sublime
patriotism that inspired our noble
sires to die for our own, our native
land?
The Sword
This unsheathed sword of steel is
a symbol of law enforcement. It rep
resents the military or enforcement
powers of our government, from the
president down to the constable. Its
presence on our sacred altar signifies
that we, as an organization, are SOL
idly behind every enforcement officer
in the land, to "help, aid and assist in
the proper performance of their legal
duties" We stand Internationally
and unqualifiedly for the just and
impartial enforcement of law, and
for the defence and protection of all
rights and privileges of all citizens
alike, regardless of race, color, creed,
lineage or tongue.
This sword also signifies that we
are set for the defense of our Flag,
and all that it symbolizes, against
the attack and invasion of every for
eign power, government, sect, ruler
or people in the whole world. We
believe in America for Americans,
and are sworn to defend it by all
justifable means and methods, from
any encrcachment whatever, from
any source whatever, whether it be
traitors within or enemies without.
This sword is constant reminder of
our obligation. to defend our country
and enforce it's laws, through duly
constituted authorities and justif-
able means and methods. May we
WELD it wisely and well in defense of
our country, our home, our flag, our
liberties and humanity.

By depriving children from the op,

Is SHINING against their future welfare
Indifference is the more to be con.

organizations to help and assist enroll

Many a Jew, familiar with the liter

the lyric loftiness of the psalms and
of the enrapturing inspiration OF the
prophets or makes their acquaintance
only by the preclpitate, they have found
in the Christian prayer book or in an

amidst us, learns only from Henry
George. that the greatest thoughts NOV.
ing the world, the ideas considered ia
be most modern, the ideas of universal
peace, and of social justice, are de
rived from the Jewish Bible.
without learning and study, Juda
ism cannot survive and Jewry must
perish. This is one of the incxorablC
laws of our existence and there is Nc
escape from it. Whenever Jewish
community failed TO kindle the lamp
of learning and relied solely on wOr.
ship. observance and philanthropy, ii
ultimately disappeared. Witness the
story of the Hellcnized Jewish com

We must banish ignorance from our

Indifference or to cynicism or to as'

Now do all you can to assist the

efforts to keep burning the lamp OF
Jewish learning and TO present the
priceless treasures of Israel's lore.

speech repeated the old Republican plat itudes about what Republican Legislation and the tariff had done for the farmer. But MT. Davis analysed the situation with penetrating vision and expressed the very commonsense view that nobody can help the farmer as much or as cor dially as he can help himself. Therefore, when MT. Davis advocated the applica- tion of existing laws and the fostering of better cooperative marketing and buying organizations among farmers, he appealed to their intelligence and com mon sense. MT. Coolidge, on the con- trary, aroused their resentment by mak- ing 1t appear that they were possessed of intelligence inadequate to pierce his par tisan sophistry. Credit also should be given to the influence of Governor Bryan's more detailed exposition of the Davis plan with respect to agriculture.

CINCE a professor in one of the leading
 Western universities has drawn attention
 to the important place occupied by news papers as historians of the times and urges their sstudy upon the public generally and upon schools and colleges as textbooks of in- formation of current events, 1t may not be immodest slightly to emphasize the truth of the professorial opinion.
 No newspaper man yields his just pride in the product of his toll. As put into the hand of the reader, the newspaper is daily monu- ment to an industry, intelligence and organ iSation genius which is all but incomparable in any other sphere of human manufacture. However, let that go.
 It is as the exhibitor of the vast pano- rama of world events that the public is con cerned with the newspaper. For an insignifi- cant sum and with no effort by himself, the reader sees pass before him on the printed page the multifold activities of men, great and small, the performances of nature, be- nign and malign to the interest of human

Old Henry Brown, who lived alone, gtFollOd down the street one day and joined group in Pickwick's store to pass the time away. The subject up was Christmas gifts. Said Ebenezer Moore: '"The folks at home take all my cash. It always makes me sore" Eve got to spend heap this year" growled Peleg Wilson next. Those kids of mine want this and that. By gum, it's got me vexed. It's such a nuisance. Honest, boys, 1t makes me want to cuss, and yet I never say word. It does no good to fuss" Jeff Beeson had kick to make, and then came Ezra Dawes. Each had a grievance that he aired about old Santa Claus. They all condemned the folks at home each wore an awful frown; and then they heard word or two from poor old Henry Brown.

SENATOR HARR1sON's VICTORY

In their primary election last Tuesday, Mis- sissippi Democrats renominated Senator Fat Harrison by a smashing majority, giving him probably a larger proportion of the total vote cast than was ever before boiled for Mis- sissippi candidate for important office in contested election. A light vote was cast, Senator Harrison's friends generally taking his renomination for granted, but the most confident among them probably are surprised by his enormous margin over ex-Governor Brewer. The latter has not been specially active in Mississippi politics of late years, but was elected governor without opposition some years ago, enjoys a statewide acquaintance and made fairly vigorous campaign. It was not, we take it, his weakness as candidate, but rather Senator Harrisons popularity and strength, that made the result so One-sided.
 Mississippi's senior senator has earned rec ognition as one of the national leaders of his party. Frequently he has been designated to leadership of party causes in the senate de bates. As temporary chairman of the na- tional Democratic convention he delivered the "keynote" address at New York last June Evidently his Mississippi constituents not only are proud of his achievements in the national field, but are convinced that he has in no way neglected their state interests by his activities and service in the broader field
 His engagements outside the state prevent ed him from making an active personal can vass for renomination and his emphatic in dorsement ae the polls is the more note worthy for that reason. MississippPs action will be welcomed by Democrats the country over. The state, the party and the senator are alike to be congratulated upon the verdict. New Orleans Times-Picayune
