 Balfour said:
 This form of settlement would not upset
 exchanges and would have to be final It
 is somewhat in proportion to the settlement
 made with Germany regarding separations,
 and that settlement, of course, was forced
 by economic conditions as the debt settle

If public health is to be measured by the death rate it is the best known in this city. It is much better than in the prosperous period ending in 1929 better than in the previous record of 1927 This is confirmed by that most sensitive indicator of community's healfuness' the infant death rate It has fallen every year since 1927, and there was marked decrease in 1892 compared with 1881, and new low record"
 When the chief of death analysed it is discovered that, while there has been larger number of deaths from diseases of the heart arteries and kidneys, and from cancer, the increase is 'ony apparent" More people live to the age in which these diseases afflict mankind On the whole the statistics good for adults" for there is a distinct reduction for them well for children considerable period of years.

 Nobody knows how much land has been taken back by the States for taxes from it's former But indication may be had from the fact that South Dakota recently sold than 5000000 acres under the auctioneer's hammer. If is estimated that 20 per cent of the States total agricultural acreage will be removed from the tax lists when the counties take title.
 There's problem for you! We have grown accustomed to the thought that public lands were exhausted. Are we to have great of public lands again? If so what going to do with them? way must be found to dovetail this new factor into the unemployment situation. Can the States resell this land on long-tim payments and easy terms to workers forced out of city jobs by the rise of machinery? Can they perhaps farm them themselves? Can they be State-forested? Here is a chance for some pioneering in State Legislatures this winter.

PREACHERS AS SOLDIERS.

Commenting upon the circumstance that Rev William G. Everson, recently installed as pastor of Portlands big First Baptist Church to which he came from an equally prominent pulpit in Denver, IS Major General the Seattle Times asks if one can serve the Christian religion and the military branch of his country at the same time with equal fidelity when much stress is being laid on the Divine n- junction commanding Peace on earth"
 The Times concludes:
 It can be done. General Everson's is not
 the only of the kind. Seattle well
 remembers the Rev. Arthur M. Hyde as
 rector of St. Clements Episcopal Church
 and also as Colonel of artillery in the United
 States Army. The World War claimed his
 undivided attention to military service; and
 with that duty well done, he resumed his
 pastoral work in another city.
 Such men as these and many others find
 conflict between religion and patriotism
 The noble work they carry on, the fine ex-
 amples they set, show in impressive contrast
 with the wobblings of a sickly pacifism-
 The Times could have cited other examples to establish it's contention that people have seen no inconsistency in service of country and religion at the same time. In fact, so far as principle is concerned, there is difference between praying God to bring success to the arms of ones country and fighting in the army for that success.
 A conspicuous instance of joint service in the army and the church is that of Lieut-Gen. Leondas Polk a very distinguished soldier in the Confederate Army during the Civil War. Until he was killed by Union cannon shot at Pine Mountain in 1864 Lieut.-Gen. Polk the Protestant Episcopal Bishop of Louisiana. Bishop and Gen. Polk was cousin of President James K. Polk of the United States. His son William M. Polk was famous New York physician. His grandson Frank Lyon Polk is now a very famous American lawyer and diplomat In wilson's time Frank Polk Solicitor of the State Department Under-Secretary of State, Acting Secretary of State and member of the American Peace Commission at Paris when the Versailles Peace Treaty negotiated.

Someone has discovered that some forty centuries ago doleful scribe in ancient Egypt took pen in hand to chronicle sad in his countrys history. He wrote: "Scanty is gold; craftsmen are without work; the reaper of the harvest gets nothing show thee land turned upside down." Evidently human experience has not changed one particle in four thousand years Economic fluctuations are new to every generation, but they are old in history.
