Still Is Mystery

Meanwhile, we &c not know where
the ether begins, much less of what
it consists.
A generation or so back, we were
taught that the atmosphere just
peterec out into nothingness and
that the nothingness was called
ether.
We were taught that the atmo-
sphere might be as much as fifty
miles thick. but that it probably
disappeared 1T thirty.
Science has raised all sorts of
arguments as to this point, just as
it has with regard to many others.
Men have assembled nearly eight
miles in airplanes and more than
that In balloons, while unnamed
balloons have gone up as high as
'twenty-four miles before bursting.
The net result is whole new
flock of mysteries.
The atmosphere grows thin and
cold, but not regularly or continu-
ously, and beyond the atmosphere
no man or instrument made by
man thus far has been able to
reach.
The fancied dark sky, against
which the sun hangs like a sharp
ly defined ball of light, once the
atmosphere has been left behind,
is still an unproven theory.

Use Gotham as Target

1t has become q fad with moral
lists and reformers to paint New
York as the Nations prize hotbed
of badness, and New York has been
foolish enough to lend herself to
the role, with her made-to-o
naughtiness for The entertainment
of hicks and her parade of high
brow liberality.
New York that has been built up
in the American imagination by
blue law shouters On the one hand
and the Art for Gods Sake crowd
on the other is very different from
the real thing.
Your real New York, whether
gentle or Jew, Protestant, Catholic,
foreign or native-born, tries to
bring up its children in clean, de-
cent ways, howls down cheap shows,
fights for pure milk and gets pleas
ure out of a posie patch, just like
the rest of the country.
About the only difference between
New York and Terre Haute, or Osh-
kosh, or Kalamazoo or any other
town, Is that there is lot more
of it.

Bruce Barton DrazOS a Word Picture of The Church
Nobody Kf,07gS' i'm HIS Nez0 Book About Real Faith
WEEKLY BOOK REVIEW
by WALLER d. HICKMAN :

a hundred years in the future, Bar
ton finds "one church" and "in the
rear of it is Sunday school build
ing which is used for the religious
instruction of the youth, and for
nothing else. No entertainments
are held in it, no bazaars, no mo-
ton picture shows. The church at
tempts to 90 nothing which other
agencies can do as well or better.
It confines itself exclusively to the
one thing which not other institu-
ton can do, the spiritual training
and inspiration of the people"
Barton tells you that his imag-
mary church of the future in his
imaginary town is open all day and
that men and women drop in to sit
down for few minutes and to hear
the great pipe organ which is played
all day and also to pray.
Also in this future" town, Barton
finds radio in the home, the Office
and the factory as well as the store.
This radio makes it possible for
great music before work starts, fol-
lowed by a moment of silence land
then there appears on the wall the
figure of the pastor standing in his
pulpit. He makes a very simple
little prayer, ETC."
You will be interested in the "fu-
ture" pastor as 'he has power to
perform miracles, to feed the hun
CRY and cure the sick, power
through money"

chance, so be sure that your entry
is in the hands of the harmonica
editor by tonight so you will be
given this chance to gain fame and
fortune as has the former little mer-
chant of the streets.
In order that the boys might be
at their best, three leading music
stores Of indianapolis, namely Car
lin Music Company, Fuller-Ryde
Music Company and the Pearson
Music Company will have two boys
of the band give free instruction to
any boy who visits these stores be-
tween II and IL for the balance of
the week.
On Friday night the winner will
appear at the last two shows and
Borrali' hopes that he can find the
boy from this city who will take his
place among the representatives of
the various cities that he has Wis
tied.

And his future" pastor, accord
ing to Barton's idea on Sunday con-
ducts three short services in the
morning, beginning at o'clock, and
3 in the late afternoon and evening.
The study of the future" pastor
is most interesting because there he
meets all people and he hears their
troubles. At noon and dinner time,
he uses tive radio and his prayer is
carried into every home.
Barton is still talking like the
business man and as such ne talks
on subjects that most people want
to hear discussed.
My verdict on What Can Man
Believe" is a human and honest dis
cussion of the subject matter. 1t is
as gigantic and as powerful as his
other two religious books. He is one
of the very few authors who can re-
peat success three times.

backed down. Therefore. they say the dispute still
serious,

With which sentiment this newspaper is not en-
trely in disagreement providing we extend the for
eigner the privilege of saying the thing to US.
But natonasm does not always work that way.
Take China, for example. In China we Americans,
British, Japanese and on demand and are granted
special privileges not accorded to the Chinese them
selves. Backed by our superior power. we grab what
want and if there is any objection we simply call
for warship and have it shoot the natives into SUBJ
mission. Such is nationalism of the strong at work
among the weak.
Furthermore, there is another phenomenon OBJ
servable in such cases. We. the nationals of the
stronger powers, frequently call nationalism among
the weaker peoples, Bolshevism The Chinese are all
reds" because they seem to think they ought to
have say about what goes ON in China.
1t is precisely this tendency against which Presi-
dent Gales is now fighting in Mexico Almost alone
in his country, he is waging tremendous battle in
the interest of millions of the very poor and ierate
For centuries these people have been exploited largely
by foreigners They have had fewer privileges in their
own country than outsiders have had there 1t is to
right this wrong that he is striving and while he has
undoubtedly made some mistakes and, being human
will likely make more he is slowly but surely gaining
ground.
But if President Gales and his successors are ul-
tmately to succeed they must have the cooperation

ularly Americans
Such is President Gales objective, it would SEEM
and if this is nationalism it is nationalsm of the
right kind. No political leader and no nation has
ever yet been worth a tuppeny darn without it.

Was 1t Worth tn

The cruisers, submarines, de-
stroyers and aircraft used up half a
million dollars worth of fuel search
ing for the Dole fliers. Added to
this is the 100000 which it took to
finance the stunt. Then there is the
pay of the thousands of men re-
quired to run the ships. Call the
expense million or million and a
half, and you will not be far wrong.
Was their performance worth it?
Before answering that question,
just ask yourself whether the
Dempsey-Tun fight is worth the
100000 which Tex Richard ex-
poets to take in at the gate.

light on the subject, ask yourself
whether $500 is worth the lives of

TRACY
SAYS:
Neao York SuStifed IN
Protest Against Constant
Abuse By Prohibition
Leaders.

Congressman Boyle is right in
protesting the constant abuse of
New York by prohibition officials.
The Empire State has become a
stock excuse with them.
But for New York, they keep
telling the country prohibition
would have an easy and successful
road.
In his Labor day speech, Seymour
Lowman, assistant secretary of the
treasury, in charge of prohibition,
declared that it would take an
army Of 10000 prohibition agents
to enforce the law against "the open
opposition" of New York officials.
Mabel Walker Willebrandt, as
sistant United States attorney gen.
eral in charge of prohibition, says
that the law can be enforced, but
that New York will be the last
citadel to fall"

Lac and Justice
BY Dexter M. Keeser

A woman, attacked by another woman, grabbed a
gun and shot twice. Each bullet killed bystander
Two murder indictments were returned against the
woman. She was tried one of the indictments and
found not guilty. When the prosecuting attorney
proposed to try the woman the second indictment
cedure would violate her constitutional rights by put
ting her in jeopardy twice for the same offense.
They contended that the two Shots fired in quick
succession in the of violent battle, constituted
but single offense of which she already had been
quilted. The prosecuting attorney commended that
each killing constituted separate offense for which
the State properly could demand separate trial.
HOW WOULD YOU DECIDE THIS CASE?
The actual decision: The Supreme Court of APP
peals of West Virginia refused to allow the second
trial. the ground that it would involve putting the
woman in jeopardy twice for the same offense. The
court said that the acquittal the first murder
charge was a complete defense against the second
charge.

MEASURING DEwFALL

In some parts of the world, es-
pecially in the tropics, dew forms

of atmospheric moisture received
by plants. For this reason, as we'll
as on account of the general scien-
tific interest of the matter, many
attempts have been made to- obtain
accurate measurements of eiewfall.
One difficulty in this connection is
the fact that the amount of dew
depends on the nature of the body
on which it is deposited Some sub
stances cool by nocturnal radiation
more rapidly than others, and thus
condense more water out of the at
mosphere.
Instruments for measuring dew
are called "drosometers, and sew
eral different kinds have been con-
Structed. One with which a French
meterologist, M. Raymond, has been
making observations regularly for
the past seven years on the Riviera,
consists of light basket containing
a layer of dry grass or moss. The
basket and its contents are weighed
just before sunset and placed out Of
doors. They are weighed again be-
fore sunrise, and the difference be-
tween the observed weights repre-
sents the weight of the dew depos-
tied. M. Raymond has also attached
registering apparatus to his dew
gauge, and has thus obtained rec
ords of the rate of dew deposit
through the night Thus his droso-
meter becomes a "drosograph."

We have heard much about the
church just around the corner. but
what about "the church nobody
knowS?"
Since Bruce Barton gave the
world 1.-The Man Nobody Knows
and 1.-The Book Nobody Knows" it
was to be expected that in some
manner he would give the world
1.-The Church Nobody Knows"
And this is just what he does in
his new book, what Can a Man
Believe" just published by Bobbs-
Merrill Company of this city.
1.-The Church Nobody Knows" is
the browning chapter Of his latest
book, what Can Man Believer"
In this book review, 1 am not
going to take any sides on the ques-
ton of whether the church today
is functioning and getting the re-
suits that it should.
Rather / want to present the
thoughts of Barton as reccrded in
his new book, which is going to
cause more argument and comment,
I think, than his previous religious
books.
Barton as unique approach to
the church nobody knows and his
idea challenges thought and COM
ment..
In starting his survey of the re-
ligious situation in the United
States today, Barton writes: "The
Catholic church on the whole, is
doing its task successfully. Whether
or not its organization, doctrl11e and
ritual correctly interpret the ideas
of Jesus of Nazareth, the great fact
remains that it keeps its hold on
the hearts of its people, that to
many millions it stands for con.lort
and faith and the hope of eternal
life"
In discussing the Protestant
church, Barton writes: ''The Prot
estant church presents a confused
and bathing picture. In some sub
urban communities, as well as in
certain towns and smaller cities, it
is perhaps stronger than it ever was;
in larger cities congregations dwin-

conducted by The Times in con-
junction with the appearance OF
Borrah Minevitch and his gang OF
harmonica funsters at the Indiana

All entrants must report tonight

Borrah is looking forward to find
