TESTS.

One thousand freshmen at the
Pennsylvania State college this year
took psychological test to determine
their general knowledge. They were
required to answer 230 questions in
90 minutes.
Results were little surprising in
view of results college girls, have been
making in scholarship competition
with men.
The men students in this test made
an average score of $50 and women
students TIT.
Many men will seize this bit of in
formation as something that will give
them a good laugh. Let them-the
laugh lately has been so much on the
side of the other sex.

Thus the judge, paying homage to

mobile has educated women, by teach
ing them mechanics and training them
in alertness and self-control in phys
ical emergencies.
1t has done more than that. 1t has
developed them in the one moral
quality in which they had been by in
heritance and training inferior to
men.
In hunting, in fighting and in work,
men had been trained since before the
cave age to act together and to rec
ognize each others rights.
+ During most of those ages, each wo-
man sat in her particular cave alone,
and her chief purpose in life was to
see that no other woman supplanted
her.
Then, when women got out and
courtesy began, the woman walked
ahead, not even looking behind to see
whether the man was following.
All women took precedence over all
men, and each woman deemed herself
entitled to personal precedence over
all other women.
The "rule of the road" was not for
them. Now the automobile has cured
all that.
Half the drivers are women, and
they have had to learn that on the
road, one automobile has no preced-
ence over another, and each must fol-
low the rules laid down for the good
of all.
With business teaching women
honesty and the automobile teaching
them equality, mans last remaining
superiorities disappear, and he takes
his place frankly as the lesser sex.

ROWeH Says
Bv CHESTER H. ROWELL

Honored bet the public man who
dares to tell his people the truth!
This seems to be quality of Will
liam M. Jardine, the new secretary of
agriculture.
He insists that 10 per cent of the
farmers troubles can be cured by leg
islation, and he is for that legisla-
ton.
The other 80 per cent must be
remedied by the farmers themselves,
and their associates, the business men
of their communities, and he is for
organization and education to do that.
He is no reactionary, who is against
even the 10 per cent of legal remedy
needed, and no conservative, who
would do nothing and let the 90 per
cent take care of itself, but an ag-
gressive leader, who believes in doing
things.
Only, the first thing is to find out
what can be done, and to have the
courage to tell the truth about it.
That is what you expect of an ex-
pert, in anything else. 1t ought, to be
commoner in politics and government.

THE FALL OF MAN
MAN was created by the special
act of God as recorded in Genesis.
So God created man in his own i'm.
age, in the image Of God created he
him; male and female created he
hem (Gen. 1:27). And the Lord God
aormed man out of the dust Of the
ground, and breathed into his nostrils
he breath of life; and man became
living SOUL (Gen. I'D. He was Gre

law Of his maker but through the
temptation OF Satan he transgressed
he command of God and fell from
ais original holiness and righteous
ness; whereby his posterity inherit

sin, are under condemnation, and as
soon as they are capable of moral
action, become actual transgreseor3."
THE WAY OF SALVATION
"Salvation of sinners is W.T. ally Of
grace, through the rnediatorial Office
of the Son of God. who by tbs Holy
Spirit was born C the Virgin Mary
and took upon him our nature, yet
without sin; honored the divine law
by his personal obedience, and made
atonement for our sins by his death.
Being risen from the dead he is now
enthroned In heaven and uniting in
his person the tenderest sympa th.es
with divine PROJECTIONS, he is IN every
way qualified to be compassionate

"Christ's people should, as occasion
requires, organize such associations
and conventions as may best secure
cooperation for the great objects OF
the Kingdom of God. Such organ!za-
tons have no authority over each
other or over the churches. They are
voluntary and advisory bodies design
ed to elicit, combine and direct the
enegries of our people in the most eff
fective manner. Individual members
Of New Testament churches should
cooperate with each other, and the
churches themselves should cooper
ate with each other in carrying tor-
ward the missionary, educational md
benevolent program for the extension
of Christ's Kingdom. Christian unity
in the New Testament sense is spirit

MISSILE and desirable as between the
various Christian denominations, when

Testament"
STEWARDSHIP
"God is the source of all blessings,
temporal and spiritual; all that we
have and are we owe to Him. We
have a spiritual debtorship to the
whole world, holy trusteeship in the
Gospel, and binding stewardship in
our possessions. We are therefore
under obligation to serve Him with
our time, talents and material posses
sions; and should recognize all these
as preaching the Gospel Of Christ.

Believe Chances
Are Slim for NJ. d.
School in Maine

ANY resolve that might be pre-
scented making provision and ap-
rropriation for a medical school at
the University Of Maine would Lave
little chance Of favorable report at
the present session of the Legisla-
ture, according to the opinion of two
physicians in the Legislature, DIR.
Joseph D. Phillips of Southwest
Harbor, O member of the Senate, and
DR.. Clarence A. Peaslee Of Bath,
member Of the House of Represen-
tatives.
Both physicians declare that the
State should have a medical school
in order to supply the number OF
doctors needed in the rural sections,
but in view of the stand for economy
which is now being taken In State
matters they believe that the Solons
are not in a frame of mind to even
make a beginning on any such a
project.
Senator Phillips stated Tuesday to
a Journal reporter that State medi-
cal school located either at the Uni
versity Of Maine or Bowdoin College
would be~a great thing if the pro-
ject could be carried through. He
declared his belief. however. that
Maine is not able to support a medi-
cal school unless an endowment
fund could be secured which would
in a considerable measure take care
CT the financing Of the institution.
Relying on State-aid alone the school
would be handicapped for funds all
Of the time. he believes.
Representative Feaslee Of Ba h
believes that the University Of Maine
would be in truth a State institution
"a university supported by the
State and which the State would be
proud of. The law school, the medi
cal school and other technical
schools should be located there. II
believe that medical school for the
State will come in time, 1t Is a fine
proposition, but I believe 1t is i'm
possible that 1t will be created by
this Legislature" he asserted yester-

hearing Tuesday afternoon the case
or the proponents of The act amend
ing the act relating TO applications
for soldiers bonus and extending the
time limit during which such appli-
cations shall be filed from January
l. 1924. to January /. 1927. There was
no opposition to the measure.
Adjutant General Hanson stated
that since the expiration of the time
limit for filing applications for this
300 bonus for men who served in
the world war, no action could be
taken on the J13 claims that have
been filed. OF these 1l3 claims filed,
10 We're held for correct addresses,
81 claims were considered legitimate,
and &c needed additional proof of
residence. A total of 1889 claims
have been paid to date. The general
reason why certain claims were filed
after the expiration of the time limit
was that the men were out of the
country or at distant points in this
country where they had not heard of
the Maine law for soldiers bonus or
the time limit for making applica-
tions.
Il see no good reason why the leg
islature placed time limit on the
