Elections, 1t is altogether probable

Is based upon a broad Interpretation

Among all the absurdities and ex-

ASSURANCE
BY THE RIGHT REV. JAMES E. FREEMAN D. D. IL. D, DEL
Bishop Of Washington

We are so constituted that we de-
mand at all times and In every expert
ence Of life assurance that what we
undertake will issue In measurable
success. We hesitate to embark on
new venture without feeling within
ourselves confidence, not only as to
our own capacity to attain our ends,
but Of the good will and support of
those we respect and trust. We may
love our independence and our right
to determine our course; nevertheless
we are stabilized and strengthened
when we have the assurance of those
whose opinions we respect and readily
follow. To have our own judgment
underwritten has sustaining value. A
right self-appraiSaI IL urgent, II not
indispensable, and 1t Is the chief
governing factor in great decisions: 1t
is immeasurably strengthened when
it receives Endorsement and conflrma-
ton from those who are most compe-
tent to judge it.
AS we survey the road we have
followed and review the successes or
failures we have experienced, we trace
many of the results to the judgments
of those in whom we reposed conf
dence. Badly advised" might be
written across many records; well
advised" across others. Behind and
beyond al that we receive Of human
help, whether expressed in creeds or
formal religious profession. the aver
age Of US has secret, possibly unde-
fined, feeling that, there Is q divinity
that shapes our ends, rough hew them
as we will" Repeatedly, in contacts
with those whose lives bore no evi-
dence Of deep religious feeling, we
have seen them In q crisis blaming
God for their mistakes or their mis-
fortunes. The Inconsistencies Of men
are never more evident than when
in an hour of supreme testing they
mveigh against one whom they have
never acknowledged or reverenlly
worshipped. During the Great War
the men going into action spoke Of
their security or insecurity in terms
Of an invisible and supreme power

1t Is comforting feeling to believe
that behind the plan Of our life re-
sides a power, not Of ourselves, that
regulates and determines our course.
There is a story in the Old Testament
that strikingly illustrates this. Two

Fifty Years Ago
In The Star

Early In the Summer Of 1855 the
Washington Monument was several
times struck by lightning and slight
Protecting the to % the shaft. The
Mnnument Star of June ID,
1885, thus notes the
steps to be taken to protect the great
memorial from this cause of injury:
The committee of scientists who
examined the Washington Monument
after it was struck by lightning has
not yet made a formal report Of the
changes they deem desirable to pre-
vent similar accident. As it is known,
however, that their principal recon-
mendation will be to supply additional
points on the roof of the Monument
for the lightning to strike, Colonel
Casey decided to take immediate steps
for temporary protection from light
ming, fearing that q chance bolt might
strike the Monument again and cause
even more damage before the entire
changes which might be recommended
could be made. With this view. after
submitting his plan to one of the
committee, who Immediately approved
it, as 1t was in the direct line OF their
intended recommendations, Colonel
Casey went to Philadelphia yesterday
and ordered four copper rods three
quarters of an inch in thickness, which
are to extend to the outside Of the
roof of the Monument, one for each
| face of the roof, and to be in direct
connection with the four copper rods
which extend from the iron pillars
which compose the framework of the
elevator TO the base Of the capStone.
The four additional rods will reach
terminals in seven branching gilded
needle points
1T has been determined by expert
ence that the interior lightning rod
apparatus is capable Of conducting all
the electricity that could possibly come
from any storm and with the addi-
tional outside facilities 1t Is thought
that all danger from lightning will be
averted. There will be, with the
aluminium tip. 20 lightning rods on
the roof Of the Monument for the
lightning to strike and be conducted
thence without damage into the
ground. 1t is almost impossible for
bolt to strike at such an angle as
to escape the roof with its many at
fractions.
"Workmen are now engaged in con-
Structing q scaffolding to surround the
roof and it will be in place by next
Thursday, when the rods are expected
to arrive. Unless some unforeseen
accident interferes the new lightning
rods will be In place and ready fof
duty by next Friday night.
"Since the accident occurred Colonel
Casey has been daily receiving COM
munications from every part Of the
country giving advice and recommen@
dations for the future protection of
the structure. Probably every light
ming rod agent in the country has
written to Colonel Casey in glowing
terms Of the peculiar advantages Of
his rod, which If placed upon the
Monument viii insure safety In the
future. Many of them believe that
nothing has ever been done to prevent
the Monument from being struck.
Some of the recommended preventions
are ridiculous. An anonymous letter
received yesterday advised that the
entire roof be covered with metal and
that the covering project ten inches
beyond the faces Of the shaft so as
to ward on the bolts from the Monu-
ment."

As you wistfully think of your home.

tain, he paused in his journey to rest
and take counsel OF his hopes and ex-
pectations. In this hour Of his I'M
certainty and doubt he had recourse
to prayer, q practice not uncommon
to men the world over. At this
critical juncture he had q dream IN
which he heard a voice speaking to
him, saying: Behold, I am with thee,
and viii keep thee In all places wither
thou goest, and I will bring thee again
into this land: for ! win not leave
thee" Rising from his sleep, he de-
clared: Surely the Lord Is In this
place, and ! knew 1t not" Refreshed
and renewed by his strange expert
ence, he went on his way, confident
that out Of all the mishaps Of his
journey he would ultimately recover
that which he had lost. His subse-
quent life confirmed his belief.
There Is nothing so reaSSuring as a
sustained belief of this kind. All Of us
at times find ourselves hindered and
confused by the strange happenings
Of life. We find 1t difiicult to recon-
cils or reason about them. Frequently
we are 50 stunned by the interruptions
we experience in attaining our desired
ends that we cry out In rebellion
against our fate and place the blame
for our misfortune upon the God
whose viii we have disregarded and
whose presence In our lives we have
failed to recognize.
Jacobs career was by no means
without disclosed weaknesses and at
times moral dereliction. but he ad-
hered to the promise made him in the
hour Of his need and believed that,
out OF oil the Vicissitudes Of his
checkered life be would eventually
have his hopes and expectations full
filled. Each one of US has the choice
to make between . self-directed
course, sustained only by erring human
judgment, or q God-directed course,
with the assurance and confidence
which come from an attempt to ad-
Just life TO His will, as we are able
to understand it. Francis Thompson,
the English poet, who wrote the re-
markable poem, Hound Of Heaven, I"
came Mt length. after a life that had
been marked by tragic misfortune. to
recognize the One Of whom he wrote:
II fed Him, down the nights and
down the days.
fed Him down the arches of the
years."

presence in his life and to give him

ceived to be Gods plan for bis course.

marked that they would be regarded
as a pose in other men, but that
suspicion never attaches to him. He
ak to grind and no interest to serve
except the public interest. He Is a
party leader, but his horizon has never
been bounded by party calculations.
He is first of all citizen Of the world
and good European, and whenever
the prejudices of his party come into
collision with what he believes to be
the higher interests of human society
his action is never in doubt.
But for his steadfast. undertaking
loyalty to the idea of the extension
of self-government to India. the In
dia bill, which is now reaching its
final stages, could never have over
come the powerful and ingrained dis
like and fear Of the policy which pre-
vailed in his own ranks. He Staked
his whole political career on that
policy and no one but he could have
carried the Conservative party with
him in the teeth Of its own convic-
tions and feelings.
And the prestige which has en-
abled him to sway his own party Is
not confined to that party. He dis
arms both the Labor and Liberal op-
position not merely by the spacious
ness and disinterestedness of his out
look, but by the integrity Of his char
acter and his gift Of magnanimous
speech. It wss said of Goldsmith
that he touched nothing that he did
not adorn. It may be said Of Mr.
Baldwin that he touches no question
that he does not raise to finer issues.
He does not do this by the arts OF
the rhetorician. He, himself, despiSes
rhetoric and has called it "the har-
lot Of the arts" He does 1t by con-
veying the impression Of a man who
has the gospel of humanity in his
heart and utters it, as the greatest
natural orator Of all time uttered it,
with malice toward none, with
charity for ALL"
Is he a great speaker I do not
know; but no one familiar with the
House of Commons would deny that
in his simple, unaffected way he
touches the deeper emotions Of that
assembly as no one else touches them.
A conspicuous example Of his power
of straight speech without hint OF
bitterness was his recent reply to Herr
Hitler. In effect it was an Indictment
of German policy. but it was en-
veloped in such an atmosphere OF
sweet reasonableness, sanity and good
viii that it was welcomed In Germany
as the utterance of a friend.
He has his defects as q parlia-
mentary leader. He is said to be lazy
though I think that may only mean
that he scorns the art, known tc
Chaucer's time, of seeming buster
than he Is" He Is weak In the tricks
of the parliamentary game and be-
longs to the pulpit more than to the
debating class. He Is capable OF
strange indiscretions Of speech and
action, due often to his habit Of
thinking outside the scope Of imme-
diate calculation and party interest
But with all his faults he Is the
greatest spiritual influence in the pub
lie lite of the country and perhaps OF
Europe, and the extraordinary con-
sensus Of agreement with which he re-
turns to the premiership Is q symptom
of the mind and temper Of the Brit
ish people ct this critical time.
