Doctor Ranck, Home From Old
World Visit, viii Tell
OF Experiences

One Of, the many unusual phases
Of his vacation trip abroad will
provide the sermon subject tomor-
row evening Of Doctor Henry H.
Rancl, pastor Of Grace Reformed
Church, Fifteenth and p streets
northwest. Doctor RancA viii speak
on AT Five Communion Services
On the Ocean. In England and IN.
Sweden" Tomorrow IL communion
Sunday at Grace Church, and the
subject will be made particularly
apropos.
The minister's journey to Europe
was undertaken IN order that lie
might attend two great religious
gatherings the World Alliance Of
Reformed Churches at Cardiff,
Wales. and the Universal Christian
Conference on Life and Work at
Stockholm, Sweden. Doctor Ranclx
was the delegate Of Reformed
churches, and had opportunity not
only to participate in convention
work Of almost unequaIled inpOr-
lance in past church history, but
also to view ct close range the.
various nations Of the Old World
now engaging the attention or
statesmen and reforn1ers alike.
Germany Is working hard, all
though somewhat DISCOURAGED. =
Doctor Ranck says. France is
working. too. but liz greatly fright.
ened because OF the thought that
her recent foe may again rise to
destroy her. England is reaching
out after foreign trade ana ii
eagerly seeking to get customers
IN Germany. But the unempIoy-
ment situation in Great Britain IL
iDdescribahle, and Is growing
menace. Business is bad in the
isles, and there seems little pros.
pect Of better things Immediately. .
Doctor Ranck was delighted with
his visit In Sweden, where he found
people and government apparently
working together for high purposes.
he toured much OF the War-swept
region Of Central Europe, visited
some Of the most famous university
towns, enjoyed trip down the
Rhine, and everywhere noted the
living and the attitude or the peo-
pie. He believes the two great re-
ligious conferences performed work
which will be as far reaching in
good effects as the Council OF Mica,
and his thought was shared by most
OF the great church leaders par
ttcipating. Doctor Ranck was &C.
companied on his tour by his son,
Professor James 3. Ranck, Of West
ern MARYLAND College. and both men
found their experiences of vast in
terest.

CALVIN COOLIDGE PUTS
lT THIS WAY

I'VE want cooperation preach
ed as a principle. not a panacea.
II will not perform miracles. 1t
will not accomplish the impos-
sible. But il is a sound, tried.
demonstrated principle that must
be introduced at the basis of our
agricultural establishment. II
demands that the individual shall
surrender some part of his
complete independence for his
own and general good. II means
that a certain authority must be
delegated. and when delegated,
it must be supported. There
must be faith. good will,
patience. II must be understood
that no very spectacular achiev-
ments will be wrought. The Co
operative Association, which es-
tablishes grades and standards
encourages the good and ehmin.
ates the poor varieties. increases
the efficiency Of the production,
provides a unified product adapt
ed to its market. organizes its
distribution, creates confidence
in its products and its methods
that kind of an association is
doing the best that cooperation
can do. II will serve both the
seller and the buyer. Under wise
leadership it win succeed. More
than anything else We need a
generation Of farmers trained to
cooperation; and TO get that we
need able. courageous, determin-
ed leadership. and most of all.
leadership that will not desert
the farmer. but will stay by
him."
Askov American. [volume] (Askov, Pine County, Minn.) 1914-current, 1925-09-17
THE SECRET OF POWER

There is no one direction in
which leaders of public opinion
should set an example for the
community as in the direction of
cultivating the habit Of patient
consideration of problems free
from hysteria and violence and
bitterness. In every mans life
there is constant temptation to
whack away with a bludgeon
without thought of where the
blows land. Rarely such method
is right. Generally anger defeats
itself. The man or the commun-
ity or the state which has the pa
thence to await confirmation of
its anger by fact is the one which
decides rightly and progressively.
Edmund Burke uttered a pro-
found truth when he said: 1T is
ordered in the eternal constitu-
ton of things that men of in
temperate minds cannot be free;
their passions forge their fet-
ters." To be sure the man who
thinks without feeling is apt to
be more powerless than the man
who feels without thinking. But
the man who keeps his feelings
within the bounds of reason,
thereby making his emotion a
thing of light as well as of heat,
is the really conquering man.
There is no quality so necessary
in the rightful ordering of life as
the quality of intellectual recti-
tude; the careful desire never to
hit below the belt even for tenn
porary advantage; the habit Of
practicing a just regard for the
evidence of fact. There could be
no finer tribute won by leaders
than to have it said of them as
Albert Parker Fitch said of a
group Of Harvard instructors:
They handled ideas as scrupu-
lousy as the banker handles his
clients money. Their pride in
honest thinking. the moral obi
cation to be Just. disinterested,
accurate in thinking. is a noble
witness TO great inheritance"

author of the History of Door
County"
In the preface of the book Mr..
Holland quotes the impressions OF
Door county given by Prof. c. M.
Moss, of Urbana, Illinois, who has
summered at Ephraim for forty
years, while he tells in brief the
background for the book and its
purpose.
Il cannot picture it as much
less than a bit of the outer rim of
Paradise" asserts Mr.. Moss.
What with the rugged newness
of the surroundings. its peaceful
quiet so full of the very breath of
serene life to one who could APP
preciate its soul in invigorating
influence, the simple, genuine
kindness of the people, their
calm and hopeful religious life, it
resembles the sleep of a young
child, trustful and undisturbed
by the clamor of disquiet of the
day, yet throbbing with fresh
life animating its being.
The city of Sturgeon Bay, as
before mentioned, is the farther
most point on the peninsula
that has railroad service so the
inhabitants of Washington Island
are about so miles from the rail
road. We were also told that
there is no physician north of
Sturgeon Bay. 1t is therefore not
well for the Islanders to have any
physical disorders especially in
the winter time. They are I'M
doubtedly a sturdy lot anyway
being way out there between the
dashing waves of Green bay and
Lake Michigan with plenty of
fresh cool air. The city
of Sturgeon Bay is also located
on a beautiful harbor by the same
name, projecting in from Green
bay. A channel has been dug
from there to Lake Michigan,
making it possible for big boats
to sail through. Sturgeon Bay is
an important port for boats ply
ing from Chicago, Milwaukee and
other lake ports to Marinette and
Menominee.
Leaving Sturgeon Bay later
that afternoon the journey was
/ directed to Algoma on the shores
of Lake Michigan. The drive
along the shore there is a most
beautiful and picturesque one.
Mr.. Hansen suggested that we
take dip in the lake just for the
novelty of it, even though the
water seemed little cool. The
ladies refused but Mr.. Hansen
and the writer jumped in. 1t was
outside of breakwater and the
waves rolled Justify. The water
felt as if it were at the freezing
point, not another soul was out
bathing at that point and it was
some novelty. Ten minutes
was enough.
Indians had settlements at
Algoma way back in the seven
teenth century and a number of
Indian graves can be found at
that place.
The refreshing dip put more
pep into the driving and we were
soon at Green Bay where we
stayed over night. Friday morn
