Otuchenville, Ohio.
What Is the prevailing religion Of
Greece today, and how did it arise?
Answer. The Christianity of the
Greek Orthodox Church is the pre-
vailing religion of Greece today. 1t
arose after the declining Roman EN-
pire found II necessary to have two
capitals. Byzantium and Rome. Here
the decisive tendencies of the eastern
and western peoples of the empire
took shape and ultimately created a
schism in the church.
This schism did not originate. as is
often stated, in a quarrel about the
faith, but from opposing conceptions
of civil authority, aggravated by di-
versities of language and modes Of
thought.
Recent events indicate a gradual
reconciliation of the eastern and west
ern branches Of Christianity. / ad'

Maiden, Mass.
At the age of 81, with only moder.
ate health and a job that pays me
about a living wage and no provision
for myself or family. how can feel
grateful for all my many blessings
when my neighbor, richly endowed
mentally and physically, can with no
more effort than myself earn a large
income and become a power in the
community?
Why should this be so?
Answer. II If the hindranceS you
name constituted the whole of life you
would have reason to complain. But
so long as happiness and gratitude
are purely relative states Of mind.
you are liable to err in this appraisal
Of your neighbor's prosperity. Were
he to expose his inwardness 1t might
show that he Is indeed miserable.
Neither large income easily
earned nor prominent social standing
inevitably produce contentment. In
at least so per cent OF such cases
known to me the results are personal
dissatisfaction and domestic difficulty.
What are your neighbor's intellec-
tual pursuits and moral ideals? How
does he use his superior talents?
Does his family afford him any more
satisfaction than you get from yours?
I do not ask these questions accusing
ly. but to remind you that the poor
who will not be degraded by their pow
erty are frequently more in love with
life than the wellto-do.
A careful comparison between your
case and that of your neighbor, how
ever, does not annul the duty OF So
ciety to abolish artificial barriers
which prevent equal opportunity and

scenery of the Bad Lands is due to
erosion Of sandstone and clay. Mesas
like jagged peaks, hundreds of feet
high, are cut into fantastic shapes by

A sponge is made by thoroughly
mixing the liquid with the yeast,
part of the flour, and some OF the
sugar, and letting it rise in a warm
place for three hours or in cool
place overnight. We have found
that Dover egg heater is the best
utensil for making this mixture
smooth. Other materials such as
eggs and spices, fat and salt, may
then be beaten into the sponge just
before the additional flour Is add
ed. It is possible in this way to
make several kinds OF breads and
rolls from the same sponge, by
adding varied ingredients to the
sponge after it is ready to mix into
