IOUk Ue UStI OF WIIeal 20 O PAN OF OFeIaIS There
is trouble If 1T suddenly takes two bushels of wheat to
buy the overalls This trouble is called the disparity
Of prices To the evil of disparity the price Of
wheat in dollars must rise the price of overaS must
fall that is to say the two prices must come together
until one buShel of wheat again buys pair of over
als. This correction of disparity in prices is now gen.
orally called relation.
1t is very necessary in managing relation to keep
continually in mind that the evil to be corrected is
disparity in prices For example, if wheat at 81 will
buy pair of overas at S. and then if wheat falls to
81 while overaIs stay at 50, you have disparity The
farmer not buy overals; the maker Of overas is
thrown out of work.
That is the kind of evil we have been suffering from

One Gay in Woodland, near the
Orange Ice Mountain, where Uncle
Wfegily lived in his hollow stump
bungalow, it rained SO hard that
none of the bunny rabbit children,
nor any of the older animal boys
and girls, could go to school.
"Hurray!" shouted Buster, Gus
ter, Muster and some of the rab-
bit boys when their mother told
them they must stay in because OF
the rain. "Hurray! What fun No
school,"
I'VE can play house and dolls"
said Jingle, Jangle and some of
the rabbit girls when they heard
the good news.
But maybe, after while, we'll
get tired of playing Just by our
selves" said Baby Bunty, the or

have some of the other animal
children come over to play with
us"

Evangelist Says
War Prophesied

A congregation which occupied
every available seat and proved to
be the largest yet attending any
service, filled the tabernacle at
Fifth and Olive streets last night
to hear Evangelist Alden o. Sage
talk on conditions in the orient.
He asserted that many of AM
erica's greatest minds realize that
one of the paramount problems of
the nations of the world is the re-
lationship between Japan and the
United States.
Asserting that there are 1,250,-
100000 orientals to $4,000, 900
whites, he quoted the Bible to
indicate that conflict may be ex-
pected between the two groups, "the
hordes of the orient are awaken
ing for war" being his opening
statement.
The armies of the east and west
will meet, he asserted, in the valley
of Megeddo in the battle of Arm
ageddon and that while the bat
tie is being fought Christ will come
back and take over the world.
