9:3O-5O, for Sunday, April %:

We reasoning on the way 1t is al
right to reason if it is sincere ant
fair inquiry after truth, but if it is &
quarrelsome contention, it is al
wrong.
V. "a "But they held their
peace. for they had disputed one
with another on the way. who was
the greatest" Ambition argues fol
place and power; it tramples on
others for the sake of self. In crav-
ing worldly things one longs for the
biggest and the best.
v. 35. "And he sat down and call
ed the twelve; and he saith unto
them, If any man would be first he
shall be the last of all and servant
of ALL" In the presence Of God
selfishness becomes abashed and ST.

we must love, to be first we must be
last
v. Sc. "And he took a little child
and sat him in the midst of them
and taking him in his arms, he said
unto them" Jesus taught by a liv-
ing example of a little child; there
is something in little child that is
the greatest and most precious
thing in the world portraying beau
ty, simplicity, innocence and per-
feet trust.
v. 81. "Whosoever shall receive
one of such little children in my
name, receiveth me; and whosoever
Teceiveth me, receiveth him that

child, the object of his care and
love. He that toucheth little
child for good or evil toucheth God.
The measure of civilization is the
care of it's children.

Among his proposals, Director
Skinner included these: Raising the
beginners age from six years to
seven; elimination of kindergartens: /:
reduction Of overhead costs in city
schools; centralizing of school pur-
chasing transactions; elimination of
many smaller high schools, elimina-
ton of one room schools; revision of
courses of study; construction of
school buildings on pay-as-you-go
basis to avoid heavy bond charges;
revision of certifcation law to do
away with county examining boards;
centralizing work of school district
clerks, to abolish many clerkships.
Senator William Herner suggest
ed to the school committee that a

an adequate school equalization
fund and reduce real estate taxes.

V. 40. ''For he that is not
against us is for u.s." When there
is need for a positive decision, when
issues are brought to the test of
conflict, then neutrality is not ac-

New Commissioner Is to Make Inspection, Give
 Own Decisions

WASHINGTON, May 1.-Henry T. Bell, United States Fisheries Commissioner, said he is watching carefully the effects of the recent volcanic action and earthquakes in Alaska on the salmon fisheries and asserted the only changes contem- plated will be those absolutely es- sential and on fatalities that might result from the recent quakes which might make necessary re- strictions upon fishing.
 The Commissioner said he. was primarily interested that enough fish get through the traps and the supply is not depleted as might be if the present scale of fishing is maintained. He said he had or dered the company operating a trap east of Anchor Cove to show cause why it's trap should be con- tinued in operation. He has also cancelled most of the recent or ders by Henry O'Malley permit ting the opening of new traps this year.
 The new Commissioner said he thought that before new traps are opened he should have a chance to inspect conditions in person and to make his own decision.
