Oct. 9-HOlyOke, 8:15.
Oct. 9-Kerrick, 1920.
Every church has not only the right
but the duty of acquainting SOUL
hungry humanity with what it has
for their spiritual nOurishment and
medicine.
But even more compelling than this
is church's duty to submit for
searching scrutiny its credentials for
the awesome task of teaching Divine
Truth.
The Catholic church invites this
scrutiny of her credentials and claims.
She does not wish you to take any,
thing for granted. Faith must be
built on reason. Beware of religious
quack teachers-''the wolves in the
sleeps clothing

Asserts Depression
Is Promoting Health

/. New York, Sept. 7.-tP)-The
American Congress Of Physical
Therapy was told Wednesday
that "the economic depression has
given the people the greatest
blessing Of, life-health."
The assertion was made by DR..
BENJAMIN Goldberg, asso c ate
professor Of medicine at the Uni
versity Of Illinois, as he reported
to the congress a consistent de-
crease in tuberculosis mortality
to q new low record Of 81 deaths
per 100000 population in the reg
istration area Of the u. 8. for
1881. In 1904. he said, the death
rate was 20l per 100000.
The decrease, he stated, was In
the face Of a representation OF
an increase by large proportion
Of the individuals interested In
tuberculosis.
Unemployment has taken the
excess funds from the general
population" he said. This has
produced q simpler form Of liv-
ing, with more relaxation and an
elimination Of the intense fati-
que produced In the era Of high
industrial production and con-
slant pleasure-seeking. Especial
~ Is this true In the years Of
younger adult life. Today In our
large cities thousands Of indivi-
duals are found out Of doors In
the parks and ct the beaches en-
ioyin9 Z more natural ufe.'

a crowd of more than 500 farm holi-
day strikers Wednesday morning
when the officers made an attempt tc
escort "a truckloads Of livestock
through the picket lines at James

Sheriff r. Rippey had modified the
special deputies following reports to
him that 1000 farmers holiday ad-
herents were massing at James with
the expressed intention Of preventing
the trucks of livestock from reaching
markets here.
Monday, at the same place several
hundred farmers, who seek higher
agricultural prices by keeping pro.
duce from being marketed, attacked
drivers of IA trucks and threw SCRAP
iron. clubs, timber, and stones at the
machines. Four drivers were hurt
then.
One report Sheriff Rippey received
was that the pickets had poured gaso-
line over the highway and planned ia
ignite it at the approach Of the
trucks.

the Woodbury. Plymouth county line
not far from Sioux City. Tuesday
Sheriff Rippey and his men person
ally escorted q fleet OF trucks through
this latest trouble zone in. the strike
sponsored by the Farmers Holiday
association. There was no trouble
then.
With the exception of this highway
all roads into Sioux City were clear

Previously Rippey had warned the
holiday workers that any attempts al
violence would result in wholesale ar
rests.
Meanwhile plans were going for

picketers had withdrawn to await the
results of the governors conference.

sentatives Of several thousand farm
ers met Tuesday to formulate plans
for preventing a threatened price

Toledo distributors.
At Memphis producers threatened to
dump 10000 gallons Of milk into the
Mississippi river If milk prices are not
