without thinking out and following
the realities for ourselves.
So it was that Micah challenged
religion of formal offerings and
sacrifices in which the heart itself
was not concerned. Worship in
good living, the surrender of the
soul to God, is depicted as the only
sacrifice in which God has pleasure
The Drama of Isaiah
It is this teaching of Micah that
finds equal enforcement in this in
PRODUCTION to the prophecies of
Isaiah. Isaiah presents the truth
in dramatic form. 1t is a trial
scene in which heaven and earth
are the judges. 1t reminds us of
.NIicah's figure of the Lords contro-
versy with his people.
Here God himself is represented
as saving to Israel, What unto me
is the multitude of your sacrifices?"
Considering the fact that animal
sacrifices were Still an important
ritual fact OF the religion of Israel,
it is almost impossible for us to
grasp the full significance of the
revolutionary character of the words
of Micah and Isaiah.
1t is almost as if one should say
today that forms and creedS are
un-impcrtant and that it is the real
life that counts. 1t is as if one
were to set Christianity over against
mere ohurchianity. Those who have
done so in our own day have often
been accused of being unorthodox
in fat hor disloyal to the Church.
May they not often represent, how
ever. in our own age very much what
Micah and Isaiah represented in
theirs?
The words that Isaiah attributes
to the Lord are tremendous and
sweeping in their quality. Bring
no more vain oblations; incense is
an abomination unto me; the new
moons and sabbaths, the calling of
assemblies, I cannot away with; it is
iniquity, even the solemn meeting.
Your new moons and your appointed
feasts my soul hateth; they ale a
trouble unto me; I am weary to hear
them"
There is only one way of life,
and Isaiah, in the words he at
tributes to God, finds it with equal
insistence. Wash you, make you
clean; put away the evil of your
doings from before mine eyes;
cease to do evil learn to do we'll;
seek justice, relieve the oppressed,
judge the fatherless, plead for the
widow"

Editor Of The CongregatiOnaIist


TNhat Micah's explicit and pro-
4 found definition of religion, as
doing justly, loving kindness, and
walking humbly with God, was not
an isolated instance of real and
vital religious experience and out
look, in an age and religious en-
vironment that attached much i'm
portance to ritual and sacrifice, is
evident in this lesson, taken from
the introduction to the prophecy of
Isaiah.
The book of Isaiah is now COM
monty supposed by Biblical scholars
to be the work of at least two
hands. The latter part of the book,
from the fortieth chapter on, is re-
garded as coming out of the period
following the Exile to Babylon. 1t
deals manifestly with that phase of
Israels life. The former part of
the book of Isaiah is regarded as
dating from almost two hundred
years earlier.
The writer of the earlier proph-
estes associated with the name of
Isaiah, was practically contem-
porary. with Micah. So that when
we set the teaching of this lesson
side by side with that of the last
lesson taken from Micah, we have
strongly enforced the impression of
that age as one of religious revival
in Israel
Stressing Reality
The greatest revival and progress
of religion have always come from
a new emphasis upon reality. This
means sometimes going back to an
early experience or teaching that
may have become corrupted or neg
lected, Surely every man who has
read the New Testament with in
telligence and sincerity has often
felt, as he has read, the impulse for
return to a keener and more prac-
teal following of the example and
teaching of Jesus!
The later religion Of theology and
form becomes quickened in such
moods of exaltation in an impulse
of deep allegiance to the personal
Christ.
At other times this revival comes
through going back, through form
and ritual, to the spiritual expert
ences and fneansing that form and
ritual are intended to express. 1t
is so easy for experiences that we're
vital to become merely formal, and
most of us follow religious custom

MEMORIAL DAY

Decoration Day is especially dear to the heart
OF the Grand Army of the Republic. The ranks are
depicting with increasing rapidity as Father Time
exacts his toll and the arrangements for the proper
observance of the day rapidly passing into the
hands of the American Legion.
Decoration Day observance has been an i'm
portant rite in Sank Centre for many years. The
B. R. Palmer Post G. "A. r. and the W. R. c., have
been efficiently active in seeing to it that proper
respect was paid to the Comrades who had passed
on, on this day set apart for special homage.
The American Legion has very important
duty to perform during the next generation, and
as time rolls on no doubt the veteran of the World
War will recognize that he owes the American Le-
glon his membership and active support
Decoration Day besides paying tribute to the
departed should be lasting patriotic lesson to the
younger generation and should also bring to their
elders fuller appreciation of their duty as Amer

A MINNESOTA MAN ACCOMPLISHES WHAT
EXPERTS SAID WAS IMPOSSIBLE

Capt Charles Lindbergh of Little Falls has
made a permanent place for himself in history.
When he successfully negotiated nonstop
airplane flight from New York City to Paris dis
lance of $500 miles in trife over thirty three
hours he accomplished what the aeronautlc ex-
perts claimed was impossible.
In pioneering the movement that will mean
much to commercial aviation, Mr.. Lindbergh, ac-
complished what he set out to do without any brass
band accompaniment. He made the preparations
for his hazardous undertaking very deliberately and
with confidence.
He knows aeronautics he is an experienced
pilot, he had the courage and as soon as weather
conditions were favorable he took to the air.
No event since the signing of the Armistice
Nov. II, 1913 has attracted worldwide atten-
ton as the transatlantic flight Of Mr.. Lindbergh.
Millions of people in every corner of the civilized
globe were eager for every bit of information az
the flight progressed.
France, mourning over the loss of two of their
brave airmen who sacrificed their lives in similar
attempt few weeks ago, took the American boy
to their hearts and he was accorded welcome when
President Wilson when he visited France to take
part in peace negotiations following the signing
of the Armstice.
With the adulation accorded him he is appar-
emily keeping his feet the ground. If one can
judge by press dispatches young Lndbergh does not
think he has accomplished anything extraordinary.
It is we'll that he has this disposition. He will
be HoniZed when he reaches America in manner,
which, he admits, he breads.
Modern invention has annihilated space Lind
bergh makes his nonstop trip successfully and then
talks from Paris directly to his mother at Detroit,
Mich, by telephone. 49,
We living in great age, but perhaps to
coming generations the accomplishment of Mr.
Lindbergh will appear very commonplace

When the President dispatched Secretary Hoov-
er and Dwight Davis secretary of war, to the flood
region his parting and final message was that his
primary concern the saving of human life and
the mitigating of the suffering of the distressed peo-
pie. The matter of flood control, he said, would be
taken. care of in Washington. While appreciative
that in the course of their work they would un-
doubtedly secure impressions for the solving of the
flood problem, he wished them to concentrate on
the human side Only the other day at the White
House, this same thought was again emphasized
when some gentlemen sought rather insistently co
obtain from the President his thoughts flood con-
troll, and he advised them that all the energy of
the Government was now being devoted to the re-
lief problem, and with men, women and children
perehed on house tops and in trees and until they
were relieved, he did not want any energy devoted
to an engineering study. rather humane and COM
mon sense attitude don't you think?

SERVES COMMUNITY FOR FIFTY-NINE YEARS

With this issue the Herald completes fifty-nine
years of service for Sank Centre and western
Stearns county.
When the paper was established the first Thurs
day in June 1868 by JOS Simonton, Sank Centre
was struggling hamlet on the outskirts OF cvlllza-
tion At that time the Herald was the most west
erly newspaper published east OF the Rocky Noun
tains except small paper at Fort Gray, now wan
nipeg, Can.
Many of the elderly citizens of Sank Centre
have been subscribers of the Herald since the very
first issue.
During the nearly six decades since the paper
established There have been hve EDITORS, y
H. Smonton, Charles F. Hendryx, Hon. Frank M
Eddy, A. NJ. Welles, and the writer.
The Herald is the oldest business institution in
Sank Centre. None of the publishers have amassed
great wealth, but they all endeavored to be of SER
vice to the community, giving OF their means, time
and space to its development.
The Herald has long been recognized as one
of the thoroughly representative newspapers OF rural
Minnesota correctly refecting the community in
which it was published
During the existence of the Herald other news
papers nave been published. When Mr.. Eddy pur-
chased the property about 1902 he also took over
the Avalanche and for many years the Herald had
the field alone. In November, 1924, the News was
established and was published until Dec. l, 1926,
when it was consolidated with the Herald. This
consolidation gave tine Herald circulation Of 81
per cent in the city of Sank Centre and the six
routes leading out of the city, With the consolida-
ton the Herald Immediately modernized by the
adoption of the 12em column and the paper enlarg-
ed to 7-columns per page. Much of the time since
consolidation 10 pages have been required each
week to handle the advertising and give the news
coyerage desired. The paper is not yet what the
publishers hope expect to make it. The i'm
provements wall be added as fast as business
ditionS warrant.
1t is the ambition of the publishers to make the
Herald a thoroughly representative community
newspaper. We can best do this with the co-opera.
ton of the farmers of this community.
The Herald invites the public to make free use
of the Public Forum department for the discussion
of matters of interest to the community.
For the future the Herald promises to continue
to serve the community to the limit of It's capacity
"a newspaper in fact, deserving of the united
support of the citizens of this community.

Free Examination for
Crippled Children at Clinic
Specialists Will Be In the Union

Crippled children from all parts
of Stearns county and adjoining
counties who are not able to af-

on Saturday, May 18th. The clinic
hours are from 9 A. M. to a P.

physical deformities, are expected
to take advantage of the opportun-
ity for examination. Registration
starts at $3.50 A. M. ana only
those registered before 1890 A..
M. can be promised examination.
The clinic aims to discover Grip
pied and deformed children who
have conditions which can be inn
proved or cured, and to teach par

Hand Signalling by the
Drivers Now SimpliGed
Arm Extended Gives Warning to
Other Autoists-New Law
Should End Confusion

Confusion as to the meaning OF
hand signals should be reduced to
minimum if drivers will read
and observe the new Minnesota
traffic code. The trainers of the
Hoover uniform traffic act, which
was the basis of the new Mime
sofa Law, were aware that attempts
to have different kinds of hand
signals for left turns, right turns
and stops, had led to misunder.
standing, and therefore provided
for only one hand signal. Motor.
lists in Sank Centre may be inter
ested in this section of the new
law, which reads thus:
'"The driver of any vehicle
upon a highway before start
ing stopping or turning from
a direct line shall first see that
such movement can be made
in safety, and if any pedest-
rian or cyclist may be af-
fected by such movement shall
give a clearly audible signal
by sounding the warning de-
vice and whenever the opera
ton of any other vehicle may
be affected by such movement
shall give signal either by
extending the arm horizontal
ly from and beyond the left
side of the vehicle or by an
adequate mechanical or cleo
trical signal device, plainly
visible to the driver of such
other vehicle, of the intention
to make such movement at
least fifty feet before a stop
or turn is to be made, except
that the requirement of signal
by warning device shall ap-
ply to motor vehicles only"
Since la right turn ordinarily
does not affect the movement Of
other vehicles, no signal to driv
ers in the rear is required. While
no ruling has been made, the op
Grafton of ''stop light" woule
