the Franks murder case; but it seems
that this notorious crime was Of a
minor nature compared with the crime
of killing a man in a holdup.
1t has come to be expected of the
prosecution that superlative adjec-
tiyes will be used to define the extreme
hideousness of crime when accused
men are facing trial. The truth Is
that judge and jury as well as specta-
tors have concluded that superlative
adjectives applied to criminals are
intended as exaggerations for effect.
They are neither the most atrocious
criminals nor the most abused, ma
ligned and unfortunate victims Of cir
cumstances.
The effect of such statements as
that attributed to Attorney German Is
to ultimately minimize the crime in
the minds of the jury and spectators.
The re .ult is a less sentence in almost
every case than is demanded by the.
state. An adjective, like a rubber
band, may be stretched so far that t
snaps and becomes useless.

REGULATlNG THE SABBATH

Attempts TO remove restrictions
governing the Christian Sabbath arc
meeting with reyerses generally
throughout the states. The genera
tendency is to tighten rather than
loosen Sabbath regulations.
Probably the saner method of hand
ling the question by states is illus
trated in the law governing the Sab
bath in Ohio, where questions relat-
ing to Sabbath observance are left
largely to municipalities. This is to
some extent true of Illinois, partieu-
larry in the regulation of sports and
other amusements.
Recently the city council of Urbana
sustained the traditions of that city
by passing an ordinance forbidding
motion picture shows to operate on
Sunday for pay. Whether influence
brought to bear from the outside had
any weight with the council is not
definitely known, but surmised. Both
those for and against the ordinance
were busy influencing the council, OF
at least lobbying in the attempt tc
influence their action.
In passing the ordinance by a vote
of 10 to 3 the council assumed the
entire responsibility. They had beer
expected to take action submitting
the question to a vote of the people
which in the end would have beer
more satisfactory and less likely to
react upon councilmen at the next
election. As it is the question Is
likely to come up again when a new
council is elected, whereas a decisive
popular vote either way would have
settled the matter with reasonable
permanency.
That the public, or at least a fiat
tering per cent of the public wanted
Sunday shows was evident by tn,
large crowds attending while the opei
regime was in full sway for few
Sundays. 1t is safe to say that tn,
religious attitude of these Sunda,
theatre goers will not be material,
improved by the action of churche
and ministers in opposing Sunda,
shows. On the contrary many of then
will feel resentment land are NOR,

Bruce Barton, well known writer,
in recent book entitled, The Man
Nobody Knows" advertises Jesus
Christ as the founder of modern
business" This is taking much for
granted. While the ideal is superb it
is not well for modern business to
take too much credit.
Quite probably the followers of
Jesus Christ could bring an array of
testimony to prove that all of the
better motives and methods of modern
business are in keeping with the teach
ings of the Nazarene, but there is
equal reason for believing that all
modern methods of business do not
come from so divine a source.
Writers of equal note with Mr..
Barton have said recently that Amer
lean business is revamping of the
ancient Roman methods of trade and
equally goddess. 1t depends altogeth-
er on who one has traded with. Doubt
less every Union man is convinced
that some business institutions are
founded purely upon the desire to get
the other fellows money as quickly
as possible.
But Mr.. Barton's estimate of the
origin of American business taken
literally does not essentially vindicate
the American buyer and seller. 1t is
possible that we have adopted Christ's
plan of dealing because it is the more
practicable and in the end serves q
hold the patronage we have gained
and thus enable us to realize larger
profits. 1t is altogether possible fol
one to be bad man in motive and a
successful man in adapting the princi-
piles of honesty for profit.

When organized labor first pro-

of people who laughed at the idea.
They are no longer laughing. They
are mostly wondering at the great
success almost Immediately scored by
these banks.
Now a new proposition comes up
and no one with sound judgment will
laugh. Labor is going to establish a
HE insurance company on a scale
that Is commensurate with the posi-
BILE scope of such an enterprise.
American life insurance companies
have done an enormously profitable
business. They have accumulated inn
mehse sums of money and made vast
Investments with it.
Wage earners by the millions will
listen to the arguments of the agents
OF this new concern. There will be
overwhelming arguments in favor of
this undertaking.

venture of labor.

The truth is that modern business is
simply capitalizing the principles Of
Jesus Christ for profit. The sincere
aim is not to do the world good only
TO the extent that to do the world
good means larger profits plus an
established business. Business has ap-
propriated the word Service" from
the gospel record. Service" is the
spirit of modern business. Yes Jesu.
Christ originated the word Service,
but not its adaptation to modern bust
ness where it is sold for so much pei
ounce.
