AS early as the second century of
the Christian era we find the phrase
ology "Old" and "New Testament
employed to designate the Jewish and
the Christian revelations. Its applica-
ton to the books Of the Old and the
New Covenant was first clearly seen
by Melito, Bishop of Sardis, in the
last half of the second century. Mel
ito, at least, needed the admonition
of the Spirit to "be watchful and
strengthen the things which remain"
The word canon as applied to the
sacred writings of the Old and the
New Testaments did not come into
use until near the middle of the
fourth century. The principal def
milton of this Greek work "kanon,"
given by Liddell and Scott, are the
following: IA straight rod or bar;
PA rule or line used by carpenters
or masons. Metaphorically: IA rule
in a moral sense. In the Alexandrian
Grammarians collections of the old
Greek authors were called Kanones,
as models of excellence; classics. The
church adopted this term in it's an
glocised form, canon, to indicate the
scriptures accepted and received as
the rule of faith and practice for all
believers in divine revelation.
Melito prepared the first known cat
alogue of the books of the Old Tes-
lament. In a letter to Onesimus the
good Bishop of Sardis declares that
he had made diligent inquiry to learn
accurately the number and the order
of the ancient books. He travelled ip
the East as far as the place where
the various events recorded in the
Script, res took place, and where the
messages of the prophets and of

Some Of the far-reaching and more
perplexing problems taken in Sc
quence of occurrence, are:
1 Worldwide business depression
sweeping to American shores;
2. The most serious stock market
collapse in history;
3. Social revolutions and disorders
in eighteen countries;
4. Going off the gold standard by
Great Britain and more than a score
Of other countries;
5. Unparalleled depression in agri-
culture;
6. The most violent, prolonged, ex-
tensive process of defation in our
industrial and economic history;
Z. The most extensive unemploy-
ment in history.
The forces which caused this up
heaval were beyond the control of
any man or set of men to stay. The
President has assumed each addi-
tional burden, waging a tremendous
contest against adversely, formulat-
ing and promulgating an extraordi-
nary series of plans that have light
ened the burden of the people on one
shock after another came to the ma
ton. Although the pressure upon his
time and energies has been terrific
day and night, he has been everlast-
ingly at the job, seeking solutions of
problems far-reaching in consequence
An official lacking his power of mind,
his tenacity of purpose and his su-
peru physical endurance might well
have broken under the tremendous
strain, but President Hoover has kept
physically fit to carry on the mighty
job entrusted to him. Cares have en-
graved lines upon his face and turn
ed his hair gray, but they have
neither dimmed his spirit nor slack
ened the will with which he assumed
the leadership in this crisis.
Taking the initiative when the col
lapse came, here are a few of the
things he did-in brief:
Called conference of labor and in
dustrial leaders which resulted in
maintaining wage levels until after
living costs had dropped;
Caused the number of strikes to de-
cline thirty-two per cent to aid en-
ployment;
Obtained cooperation of railroads,
utilities and industry in expension of
construction activities;
Urged shorter work week and stag
gering employment in shifts;
Accelerated and with cooperation of
Congress, expanded existing Federal
building program;
Enlisted cooperation of governors
in enlarging state and municipal con-
struction plans;
Set up employment committees to
cooperate with existing agencies for
finding jobs and financing relief;
Reorganized and enlarged Federal
employment service to bring jobs and
jobless together;
Restricted immigration so jobs
would not be taken from American
citizens;
Took prompt action for drought re-
lief, making Federal appropriations
available to farmers in thirty-one
States;
Sponsored Red Cross campaign for
relief;
Saved the financial structure of the
world by bringing about one years
moratorium of international war
debts and reparations;
Suggested the National Credit As
ISOLATION organized by bankers to
place $5OO,00O,O0O at the disposal of
banks threatened with disaster;

An Appeal To Maryland Women
Vctcrs, and More Especially
To The Women of Garrett


To the Women of Garrett County:
I appeal to you as one who has
come to realize the Importance at
tached to the great issues at stake
in this campaign. Due to the eco
nomic distress our country has gone
through, more or less of our people
have become embittered and wish to
blame some one for their trouble and
suffering. How natural to blame Pres
ident Hoover and the Republican adj
ministration, especially since our
Democratic opponents never miss an
opportunity to capitalize on this sit
uation by all kinds of. misrepresen-
tations and false accusations and by
the use of such propaganda as will
excite radicalism, foster discomfort
and embitter our people until they
lose all sense of their proper attitude
towards our great issues, which is of
such vast import and magnitude as
has never before confronted US in the
history of our great nation.
Let US look into this important
matter before US and see if President
Hoover is to blame for all our distress
and suffering.
In 1916 William Gibbs McAdoo,
Secretary of the U. S. Treasury under
President Woodrow Wilson, loaned to
foreign countries over $10,000,000,000
of our money without any security,
not even a paper to show they got it.
Mr.. Wilson set precedent in Ameri-
ca by twice leaving the country to take
care of itself, going abroad to chase
after some of his dreams and ideals.
The result of this was the League of
Nations, which he was never able to
force on the American people, altho
he had spent millions of dollars.
Coupled with this, then, was the ex-
| element of the vast loan from Mr..
McAdoo. Privat ecitizens, encouraged
by the administration, begun to loan
vast amounts to foreign countries
also, with the result of great loss to
this country. At the expiration of
Mr.. Wilson's term of Office the al
most fabulous wealth of America had
dwindled to a great extent and this
was the primary cause and start of
our depression. But this did not save
foreign countries and one after the
other collapsed and went off the gold
standard. Their. moneytary system
was wrecked, unemployment became
of vast proportions. In America the
| aftermath and backwash, which has
followed every destructive war in
history with it's devastating effects
began to be felt, and we too were on
the downward trend. By the time
President Hoover was inaugurated
this country was in bad state of af-
fairs and l can readily see why when
the job of engineering our ship of
state was again offered to President
Coolidge it brought forth this reply:
81 do not choose to rum"
President Hoover was not little
astonished and dismayed at the state
of affairs he had inherited, but fac
ing an almost superhuman task, he
took steps to cushion the shocks of
the Wall street debacle, to prevent
drop, which would plunge the coun-
try into the abyss. Without dramat-
les he met each onslaught as they
came and voluntarily and determin-
edly assumed a leadership which has
made him the one outstanding figure,
not alone in our country, but in the
world.

WASHINGTON, June %
Congress awarded Mrs. Amelia
Earhart Putnam the wrong
medal for her transatlantic
fight. But it is going to rec
tify its mistake and see that
she gets a distinguished flying
cross like that awarded Colonel
Charles A. Lindbergh and
other pioneer fliers.
The house voted Mrs. Put
nam a distinguished service
medal and the senate con-
Cured. Senator David A. Reed
(Rep., Pa discovered the err
for. He said the house had
misunderstood the war de-
partment's recommendation re-
garding the award.
So the senate rescinded its
action and appointed confer
ees for the formal task of
seeing that Mrs. Putnam gets
the right medal.

Phoenix park.
Thousands Stand Outside
Great crowds assembled at all
meetings, but only a small per-
centage of the million or more pill
grims here gained admission.
At the official opening of the
conference at st. Mary's, thousands
stood outside while Cardinal Lauri
moved through the kneeling crowd
When night fell over the emerald
isle, millions of candles were light
ed to burn until dawn, and the sky
was emblazoned with prayers cast
by powerful electrical projectors.
The church's greatest ceremony
became the most spectacular in
modern history.
