A Sermon for Today
Americanistis.
BY REV. JOHN X. GUM.

Text: 'In returning and rest shall
We be saved: in quietness and conf
dence shall be your strength. Isaiah,
3Ol5.
"Americanitis" is a term coined by
Europeans to designate the malay
common to Americans Of hurrying and
worrying. of excitement and nervous
ness. of restlessness and discomfort. 1t
is an apt term We have the disease.
and in quite an aggravated form.
Speed and hurry have become a
mania with us And this mania Is IN
business, education and religion. In
all lines OF business everything moves
with a mad rush, and with the ann
TO get rich quick Education Is hur-
ried through by short cuts ana ao-
breviated courses. Religious services
are required to be brisk and sermons
brief-there must be no time lost be-
tween the doxology and the benedlc-
tion.
we do things" is the great Amer
ican motto, And We pride ourselves on
doing things with bang. We are al
most continually in 4 commo,ion and
stir. There is scarcely an hour when
the hustle and rustic are stopped.
Everything is organized. and FROM the
meetings OF one organization 10 an
other We hurry from morning till eve
ming. and often far into the night. Be
tween SO many organizations and pri-
vate business. We are kept keyed up 10
the highest possible tension.
Marking a similar tendency to rest
lessneSs and feverish activity among
the people OF Israel. Isaiah said TO
them: In returning and rest shall
ye be saved: in quietness and conf
dence shall be your strength" There
is no word more needed in America to-
day than this word OF the ancient
prophet. THERE'S nothing We need
more than We need to realize the value
Of quietness and calmneSs QuietnesS
and meditation are necessary 10 strong
intellect. moral poise and deep spiritu-
ality II we fail to gain these quail
ties. all other gains are but wood. hay

APRIL 10 FAVORED
FOR EXTRA SESSION
Leaders Considering Best
Date Pending Decision
by Hoover.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
House leaders of both parties are
known to be considering the most pro-
pitious time for the holding of a spe-
cial session OF Congress If President
elect Hoover should decide upon this
course for the handling of farm relief
and tariff legislation.
While those at the House side of the
Capitol are unwilling publicly to discuss
the subject, it is known that they are
looking with favor upon April 10 as
the most likely time for such a session
If 1t should be convened.
Final Decision With Hoover.
A final decision in the matter, of
course, rests with the President-elect,
who is touring South America, but,
nevertheless, the House leaders feel they
should be prepared for such a session.
For this reason they have put their
heads together over the question when
it would be best from their standpoint.
Plans of the Republican leaders to
rush through rapidly all the pressing
legislation possible at this session be-
came known today when the Repub-
lican leader, Representative Tilson of
Connecticut, said that it was hoped
three more appropriation bills could be
passed before the Christmas holidays,
and a way would be opened to consider
any farm relief legislation that might
be proposed after the first Of the year.
In the meantime, the ways and
means committee is to continue to hold
hearings on the proposed tariff revision,
which it plans to conclude before the
short session ends.
Six Weeks to Draft Bill.
Chairman Hawley is understood to
have estimated that it would require
six weeks for the ways and means COM
mittee to draft a new tariff bill, which
would be early in April. Democratic
leaders were informed today by Repub-
lican leaders to be prepared to select
members at the Democratic caucus
after the holidays 20 fill vacancies on
the ways and means committee to work
on the tariff bill.
Representative Tilson declined to
commit himself on the idea of a special
session In April, but indicated that the
program was logical one to follow.
