 The International Uniform Sun. day School Lesson for July q.
BY VIM. E. GILROY, D. D.
 Editor of Advance

The lessons of the new quarter deal with representative men and women of the Bible. The Bible characters chosen are selected not only for their personal interest and greatness but for what they have represented in their careers and in the history of religion.
 Moses, the first of these, is se- lected as the type of the leader and lawgiver. In Moses these two characters were united. He became the lawgiver in the tashk of leading. his people and devcl- oping for them the rules and re- straints necessary for the weld ing of individuals into a we'll ordered society.
 The topics associated with this lesson for intermediate and senior groups and for young people ana adults are significant. For the former group the theme is What It Means to Be Patriot" and Tor the latter group Religion in Ma tiona1 Life"
 There could be no truer and better example of the patriot than Moses, a man devoted first of all to righteousness and high ideals whose primary obligation was to God and not to his people, but who loved his people and led them because his obligation to God hao taught him the definiteness ana fullness of ihuman duty.

1884 MOTOR TAX
 HIT NEW RECORD
Condition Hoped to Make Congress Repeal High- 2
 way Transport Levies
lSpecial to The Democratl

Washington, D. C.-The total of special taxes imposed on the motor vehicle owners of the country in the form of federal, state and To- cal taxes in 1884, reached another new all time high, according to a statement issued today by the American Automobile association.
 In 1884, the A.A.A. survey dis closed, the total motor tax bill was $1,16O, O,564,SsO compared with $1,- 12S.262,S31 in 1883.
 This condition" said Thos. P. Henry of Detroit, Michigan, presi- dent of the national motoring body, should be warning to those state legislatures that are now struggling desperately to impose additional taxes on the motorist, while it is also to be hoped that congress will take 1t to heart and repeal the dis criminatory federal excise taxes on highway transport" He continued:
 "Our survey shows that the total tax bill was divided as follows: for state, county and municipal taxes $S9S,226,722; for federal excise taxes $262,337,55s. making a com bined total of $1.16O,564.3S0. Fed eral taxes increased; state gasoline taxes increased; personal property taxes increased, while state regis tration fees showed a slight de- | crease.
 "The combined average per vehi- cle tax in 1894 was $46.55, just a shade lower than it was in 1888. This was due to the fact that there was a substantial increase in reg istrations which meant that more cars were carrying the burden. It was also due in small part to de- creased registration fees in a good many states. Even with the slight ly lower average per vehicle tax, it | is worthy of note that on the basis of valuation the tax on motor vehi- cle property last year amounted to 27.2 per cent per annum, which means that at this rate of taxation | the owner of small car pays 1904 per cent of its average value during its years of use. Our fig ures show that collections from gas taxes and registration fees increas- ed in forty-one states and the Dis- rtict of Columbia. Fifteen of these states were ones in which registra- tion fees had been reduced, without an increase in the gasoline tax dur ing the year. This tends to show that total income to the states is closely related to the num:er Of vehicles in operation and is not solely dependent on the rate of taxation"

of Mexico, over the southwestern United States in late summer, and in early fall over the Gulf of Cali fornia.
 The air mass system is extremely accurate in determining in advance the level at which clouds will form; whether they will extend 10 heights impossible to fly over; whether the clouds are close to the ground; when and where turbulent conditions exist so that they can be avoided by flying around them ; and what effect mountains and other terrain in any vicinity will have on air masses moving over them.
 On December I, 1888, President Roosevelt's Science Advisory board recommended provisions that would extend the air mass analysis method over the United States through cooperation of the wealth CT bureau with the army and navy air services. Twenty-two upper air soundings are now being made at various sections of the country by airplane to obtain upper air infor- nation of great importance to the United States Weather Bureau and the Eastern Air Lines weather de- pertinent in forecasting by air mass analysis.

Weekly Sunday School Lesson Moses Neader And Lawgiver)
devotion to his people was the
 very essence of faith and action.

Brough by early circumstance into the palace of the Pharaohs, he had refused, when he came to man. hood, to be called the son of Phar. aoh's daughter. but had chosen rather to suffer the affliction oi his peoAle.
 Like all truly great leaders he had felt the inadequacy of his own strength and ability. Ht had shrunk from the task be- fore hand and had accepted i only with the clear assurance thai 1t was his God-given mission.
 The task was made all ths harder by the attitude of the people themselves. It is strange fact in history that SC often those who have most needed leadership have been ,un. willing to be led. They have had more regard for the fleshpots oi Egypt than for the allurements of freedom, or their spirit has been so broken by bondage anc distress that they have lost either the capacity or the urgs to find some better situation.
 The inspiration to Moses 1T his mood of reluctance came through a vision of God and g revelation of his will. Again, as he faces the crucial task of organ izing and building into an ordered society the people whom he has sled out of their bondage, inspira- tion- comes to him upon the noun. tain top.
 One may read the story in all its literalness of detail, or one may read it in the light of a more cri tical age distinguishing between the essential truth and the form.
 The essential truth is that Moses gave to the people through this experience of inspiration 1t commandments which, as VI analyze them, were directed to ward esta ablishing in all human re- lations the principles of fairness consideration, and justice, without which no society can have strength or stability.
 We read these commandment today in the light of Christ's larger commandment of love, but tht commandments of Moses are no abrogated. What the command ments of Jesus does is to fill up 1T the freedom of the life of the spirit all that Moses established in for mai codes and rules. Moses is fol our age, as for his own, the grea'
 type of leader and lawgiver.

 Q. Why do some Jews make a practice of covering the head?
 A. The covering of the head was always customary in Israel at re- ligious functions. The priests had to wear mitres or headdress while officiating (Exodus 2S:36-3S). At the beginning of the common era, the covering of the head began to be practiced not only for religious acts but at all times. This habit was considered symbolic of the fear of God. Especially during meals, to which a religious mean ing was attached, nobody would uncover his head. This custom, however, is not a Jewish one ex- clusively. The Mohammedans, too, observe it religiously. It is not ob- served by Reform Jews nor by some Conservative Jews.
 O. How far back in the history of the Catholic chuRch has there been a Pope Plus?
 A. Pope Plus I, the eleventh pontiff, $psa elected in the year 1858 and dteA in the year 167. Plus II. the 212th pontiff, was elected In i45s. The present pope is Plus I. elected in 1922. He is the 2eist pontiff.

Q. Is 8 Christian aver justified in taking up arms?

in taking up arms?
 A. There is no simple answer to this question. There is a growing pacifist movement among the churches. In a recent question naire some 5000 pastors in the United States stated categorically that they would refuse, in the event of another war, to bear arms. To these church leaders war is sin and to their way of think ing there can be no compromise with sin. There are other church. men who distinguish between 8 war fought on foreign soil and a war waged for the purpose of re- sisting invasion. It can be stated, with reasonable certainty, that very few clergymen in the United States would support war of ag- gression. In the final analysis the question can only be answered according to the dictates of the conscience of the individual Chris tlan. To an ever increasing num- Der of Christians resort to war Is utterly contrary to the teachings of Jesus.
