free from gnawing doubt. But
he loved righteousness so that
he was willing to fight and die

was willing to take q chance.

every day of your life.
Do not be satisfied with any day
which has been quite safe and
serene. Kick yourself out of your
tracks. Force yourself to go
ahead into new territory.
Do not be afraid of stumbling.
Do not be afraid of being mis-
understood or criticized or made
ridiculous.
Do not be afraid of suffering
great losses.
Make up your mind before you
start that all these things will
happen to you. They must In.

Progress implies leaving the old
conditions and going into new
ones. And new conditions imply
uncertainty and possible danger.
IL you want to get ahead you
must pay a price--you must run
a risk.
The great progressives, the great
trail breakers. didn't lead safe
lives. They led dangerous and
often highly unpopular lives.
They didn't get a popular vote of
approval before they went ahead.
The majority of people thought
they were extremely wrong and
told them so with brickbats,
thumb screws. racks. stakes,
guillotines and other unpleasant
forms Of repartee.
Nor did these great leaders
themselves know that they were
right before they went ahead.
They HOPED they were right. hut
they had to battle with their own
fear and confusion. The crueIest
test the trail-breaker has to face
Is his own doubt of himself. In.

More wood is used in the United

AS much saw timber is consumed in
this country as in all other countries
combined,
Although the United States has
only per cent of the worlds popu-
lation. it has 80 per cent OF the rail-
way mileage, and for transportation
facilities alone as much timber per
person Is used as is required for all
purposes in Great Britain, France, or
Germany. This. country consumes
more paper, most OF which is made
from wood pulp, than the rest OF the
world combined. Although from
time to time substitutes are found
that take the Place of wood new
uses for it are constantly developing.
Newsprint {made from wood pulp !,
automobiles. monographs, radio
cabinets, and many other articles
which require wood in their conr
struction have all come into wide
use within comparatively recent
years.

Antiwar Treaty Is
Occasion for PRAYER

London, Aug. 21.-(P)-The Arch
bishops of Canterbury and York
have decided to make the signature
of the Kellogg anti-war treaty the
occasion for prayer and thanksgiv-
ing in parish churches throughout
the kingdom.
Lord Cushendun, acting foreign
secretary, has written a letter to the
Archbishop of Canterbury praising
the call for prayer.
The letter reads:
"The treaty, as the American
secretary Of state has widely warned
us, may not Immediately finally
Danish all war from the earth, but it
will be the most impressive declara-
ton ever made by mankind of a de-
termination to preserve peace, and
will inspire the nations with conf
dent hope such as they never have
had till now, Of deliverance at last
from the sickening abomination Of
war. There can surely then be pre-
sumption in believing that without
divine sanction and guidance such
consumption could not have been
achieved and it therefore seems en-
tirely fitting that this memorable
event should be associated with the
public worship Of the national church
in the manner enjoined by your
grace"

same as between independent ma.
tions. It has not given to the judg-
ments Of a state the force and effect
OF a domestic judgment beyond the
jurisdiction declaring it to be judg-
ment. It has made it only a do.
nestle judgment as to the merits OF
subject matter or the claim.
Useless Procedure
There is no more judicial reel.
procity between the states than be.
tween Independent nations. A Min.
nesota judgment is practically of nc
more avail in North Dakota than {
Canadian judgment. Under our pres.
ent practice it is necessary that q
formal action be brought upon 8
judgment or decree for money rem.
dered in a foreign state. This is
merely a procedural device, and is
utterly useless. There should be q
provision by which . certificate Of
judgment or order rendered by the
court in anay state be recognized in
this state.
"Since congress has express au-
thority to declare the effects Of
judgments and DEGREES in the states
where enforcement is sought, any
legislation for the purpose should
take the form of federal law.
Perhaps the greatest burden of
useless expense and trouble to our
local practitioners arises from the
lack Of adequate procedure for Sc
curing full faith and credit to pro-
ceedings of courts Of other states
in the matter of appointing execu-
tors and administrators, and in the
probate of estates generally. Ancil-
larry probate proceedings are q USE
less technicality. There should be
legislation recognizing the author
ity Of the primary administrator or
executor upon registration Of his
order of authority, and for the regis
tration Of final DEGREES Of distribu-
tion, making such final DEGREES ef-
fective both as to real and personal
property within the state where reg

"The present Juvenile code is i'm

investigation Of juvenile delinquency
with view to determine its cause
and extent"
