Though there are wide differ
ences of opinion among men upon
questions of theology, there is great
unnnimity of opinions upon pure
religion and the questions of
ethics.
In these times theology is dis
credited, and is weakening under
the lights which science and reason
have turned upon it. Many minds
are quick to assume that, theology
being untrue, all religion must be
false. The conclusion is unwarrant-
cd. There is a broad distinction
between theology and religion.
Theology narrows, religion broad
ems. Theology induces to prejudice,
religion to freedom. Theology fosters
hypocrisy. Religion produces truth
and openness. Theology makes men
self-sufficient and satisfied with
their own acts, religion arouses
sense of humanity. Theology is the
product of men. religion the teach
ing of God. Theology, above all, re-
duces God to the deity of q sect,
religion conceived Him as the Proyi-
dcnce of mankind, the ruling spirit
of the universe. Religion is not a
revelation to one man. nor to a few
men; it is the revelation in the
hearts Of all men in all times and
places, which has come alike to
Jews, Gentiles, Christians, Mo-
hammedans and Buddhists.
Since long before the ten great
commandments were written on the
tables Of stone, they we're written
in the hearts of men. SO that above

San Antonio is modern city, yet withal, it is

On another occasion / gave you a
set Of rules prepared by the late DR..
Holt, a great authority on babies. i
want to repeat them, because every
mother should be taught the funda-
mentals Of disease prevention.
1t is important to bear these
things in mind, because the majority
of babies dying under two years Of
age are carried away by diarrhoel
diseases. Since these diseases are
caused by bad feeding, it is i'm
portant that every mother should
know the general rules for the pro-
lection of her infant. Here are DR..
Hollis suggestions:
/. Encouragement of maternal
nursing, and the adoption of meas
ures to make this possible, particu-
larry during the summer months.
.. Education Of mothers in all
matters relating to the care and
hygiene of infants, best through the
agency Of the milk station and the
visits Of a trained district nurse.
3. Adequate supervision Of the
milk supply, the general use Of
pasteurized or sterilized milk during
the summer, and furnishing good
milk to those too poor to pay for it.
4. Instruction of mothers in re-
gard to the care of milk in the
home and in all matters Of artifi-
cisl feeding.
8. The constant supervision Of
artificially fed infants either in the
milk station or by visits 10 the
home.
To carry out these suggestions 1t
is necessary 10 have a community
program. In the cities the boards of
health provide all the facilities for
putting them into effect. 1t is more
difficult in the rural districts and
small towns.
am sure nobody can study DR..
Hollis rules without realizing that
infant care must be conducted in a
systematic and scientific manner. A
mother should not depend on her
own knowledge or even on the I'D.
vice Of her family and friends.
The importance OF individual care
for the infant cannot be over
stated. u is not possible to lay
down any firm and fast rules which
apply TO all babies. Peculiar and
unusual conditions may be met.
Particular care must be given to
the baby who does not thrive. He
needs special attention. Then It is
that the mother must be advised By
somebody who knows all about the
welfare Of the infants.
Within reach Of every mother is
a good doctor. No matter If you
are poor, be win be glad TO advise
you. You must not Jet your pride

Why We Prosper

.1N HE wealth of country is generally estimated
according to its productive capacity.
- It should also be estimated according to its
consuming capacity.
There are all sorts of natural resources in China,
but the trouble is that the people in that country do not
have enough wants.
What makes the United States prosperous
than any other country is that her people need and
most Of the products of civilized manufacture-more
comforts and conveniences than any other people.
We occupy only 81 per cent of the worlds territory
and represent only about 62 per cent of the worlds
total population. Yet produce 60 per cent of the
worlds pig iron, SO per cent of all copper 43 per cent
Of all coal and the like.
There must be active demand the part of
the people for the abundant and innumerabe uses of
this material because people demand and bet
ter comforts and tools all the time.
One Of the of wealth least commonly reck-
oned with is the disposition and the ability of the people
TO bug things well their capacity for production
