.WEEKLY SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON.

The pictures that our lessons have
given of the establishing Of a re.
ligious and social constitution for
Israel in the new ma ~ t7fc people
is very striking. Two of our lessons
have dealth with the Ten Command
ments, and following these we have
had a description Of the institution
of the Tabernacle-a symbol of the
unified life Of the people and of the
place Of worship and GsAsecration in
that life.
The picture of the bringing of gifts
for the Tabernacle, the devotion Of
the people, has been inspiring.
And yet these great inspirations
have their warning also, for we pass
from these experiences of leadership
and triumph to less worthy episodes
in the life of Israel The place Of
clear vision was not maintained.
The united conservation of the
people TO ways Of faith and right
eousness was lost, and we pass from
these high scenes to the picture Of
Israel wandering in the wilderness.

but through a way. beset with diff
culties and full Of lapses and suffer
ings, because Of their departure from
these high and inspiring experiences
in the first era Of their march from
Egypt.
Would that every people could
learn the lesson of these things and
that even in modern America we
might more truly appreciate the sa-

WORLD COURT MIDDLE
The world Court situation is a n1uddle.

The World Court situation is a nudde.
President Coolidge unqualifedly for Ameri-
can entrance into the court His spokesman laid
the proposition before Congress on that basis The
Senate tinkered with it until it altogether diff
ferent thing In its new form it went to Geneva.
The essential alteration made by the Senate was
the much-talked-about fifth reservation" This
ervation in substance is to the effect that the court
shall have nothing to say relative to any interna-
tiona dispute if the United States claims to have
interest in it and objects to leaving it to the court to
settle.
The reservation doesn't provide that the United
States must "have interest" in the dispute to pre-
vent the World Court from considering it, 1t is suf-
fcient for the United States to "caim an interest,""
Such qualification Americas part, if accepted,

cred shrines and experiences in our
national life and live more truly in
harmony with the inspirations Of the
pastf ~ " IN following out the path
of Gods greatest leadership in the
past that we find the highway Of
right and progress for the future.
These lessons in the life of ancient
Israel are of little value to us If VIC
read them merely as records of a
far distant past. 1t is only as we
interpret them in the life of today
and. find their message for our own
time and for our own lives that
their study is worth while.
The power of the Bible, moreover,
is that it is living book. Wonder
fully interesting as is its dealing
with men and events, there is even
deeper interest and pre-eminence in
it's portrayed of the whole movement
of life, the march of progress. the
struggle between good and evil, it's
revelation of values and principles,
the beautiful symbolism with which
it has enriched the whole sphere Of
faith and action.
1t is only as we make 1t a living
book that it brings to us it's living
message. Its great teaching, of
course, eliminates in Jesus and the
New Testament. but read right,
every page is profoundly significant.
These lessons, which we have been
studying at present. touch the very
springs and roots Of individuals and
national life.

What Politics Does

Politics does not make prosperity.
You take the advertisements out of
the newspapers, statesmen off ..tke
road, smart executives from i
jobs, and see where we'd land. W
Politics does make law and law en-
forcement, however. and all the in
efficiency, corruption and graft that
go with them.
Instead of talking about what bust
ness has done and trying to claim
credit for it, the politicians, especial
ly on the Republican side, ought to
be talkiR about slush funds, sold out
reserves, water power steals and dis
honesty among the dry agents.
But the sideshow ia safer, the
storm of words about nothing that
counts, the MONDAY lunch hapdoodle
that gets nowhere.

Democrats did nine years ago, MN
much money was spent for nitVS

Side Show Ideas

The sideshow idea has raised

In every other phase Of life, we
place premium on training, expert
ence and proven ability. In politics,
It's the ballyhoo, the slick tongue,
the smoke screen of CAB, that counts.
That is why the congressional

for the past four years.
I When tine question Of engaging
orchestras for this season was raised
the guarantors were approached on
the mater of the Philadelphia Or
chestra, and greater soloists with
the Cincinnati Orchestra.
To do this a relatively small adj
vance was necessary to meet the
contracts, which they were willing
to do, and which the public has met
uncomplainingly in order that the
fifth season Of orchestra concerts
should be the greatest in the history
of this community.
Orchestra music is a civic necessity
and Indianapolis should take its
place with other cities where the
orchestra concerts have become edu-
cational institutions.
The dates for three orchestra con-
certs are Nov. /, the Cincinnati
Symphony Orchestra, Fritz Reiner,
conductor; LAURIE Melchoir, Danish
tenor soloist. Feb. 81, the Philadel-
