SALVACING THE BEST
BY THE RIGHT REV JAMES FREEMAN. D. ID, IL. d. D. c. L,
BISHOP WASHINGTON.

Oar age is engaged in studying what
is Salvageable in its several institutions
and agencies. All our economists are
busy restudying their plans, all our edu-
Gators in reappraising their curricula.
After pursuing uninterruptedly their
established course for many years, they
find themselves confronted with a new
set of conditions that compel definite
establishments ana readaptations. To
many, to be compelled to reckon with
such new demands is trial they re-
luctantly accept. What is of permanent
value obviously, must be preserved.
What is of questionable worth must be
discarded. This may mean the loss of
much that hitherto was ZealouSly
guarded and protected. Our situation is
not unlike that of ship that has sus-
tanned serious damage and that must be
fioated into port at any cost. The cargo
must be appraised and such parts as
are of less value must be jettisoned.
There Is no alternative.
Looking consistently and equitably at
human life itself, what do we esteem
of such priceless value that at all
hazards it must be preserved? Looking
more particularly at youth, what are
the indispensable things that challenge
its deepest concern to which we must
address ourselves with increasing zeal
and intelligence? Here lies a problem
that must engage our most serious
thought and call forth our strongest
endeavors. Beyond any question of
doubt the most precious things in any
evaluation Of what we hold of worth,
that are indispensable TO our continuing
security and happiness, concern char
acter. Everything else we possess is in
consequential compared with it. We
may develop along cultural, artistic,
mechanical and industrial lines, but We
shall ultimately fail unless We stabilize
our life by the strong elements of char
acter. A distinguished educator pleads
for the saving of that which contributes
to beauty and truth in life. He would
not have us lose in these hectic days
when we are seeking to recover our
material values, those finer things that
belong to our better nature.
In looking out upon the world in
which we live we are prone to measure
lifes chief assets in terms of what
they represent of material advantage
and satisfaction. The gold standard is
the criterion by which all else is judged

Lese Maieste i'm the East.

Now it is case of lese majestic for
which Japan is calling China to account.
1t concerns an episode at Shanghai and
threatens another Sino-Japanese clash
In that region at the same moment that
conflict RACES over Tokios demands for
military and political concessions in
North China in the Peiping -Tientsin
area. The Japanese are protesting
against recently printed insult to
Emperor Hirohito. Unless there is
prompt redress for the publication, an
official Japanese spokesman states that
the 10000 Japanese inhabitants OF the
great commercial metropolis of
the sanguinary hostilities between the
two countries early in 1932-"will take
things into their own hands" Pro-
loneed refusal by the Chinese to give
satisfaction will, it is warned, lead to
grave consequences. The japanese flag
ship Iwate happens to be in Shanghai
harbor and Rear Admiral Sato will not
lift anchor until the insult" incident
Is closed.
The offensive publication is alleged to
have been contained in an article en-
titled Gossip About Emperors,' pub
lished in the New Life Weekly,
Chinese magazine. 1t dealt at length
with the japanese imperial household

Our youth in particular are admonished
to think of life in terms of gain and
the satisfaction of their desires. There
is a legitimate and consistent search for
the satisfaction of that which our physi-
cal nature Graves; there is merit in an
ambition to attain excellence and prefer
ment in life's callings and occupations;
indeed, life would be gray and monoto-
nous without these things. To disparage
such ambition is the part of folly. Along
with this and to balance it, the recog-
milton of the demands of our spiritual
nature is demanded. A great teacher
and exemplar of life, st. Paul, declared
that to properly measure life's real
values meant TO regard with consistency
the things which are seen and those
that are unseen, the temporal and the
eternal. He speaks of the outward and
the inward man, and affirms that while
the outward, the physical man, may
slowly but perceptibly fail, the inward
man is renewed day by day" He con-
ceiveS that a right evaluation OF life
means the recognition and cultivation of
that which is imperishable, the immortal
soul. To believe this lends meaning
and zest to life. 1t lifts it above the
concerns and SatisfactionS of the physi-
cal and compels it to recognize the
utter indestructibility of the inner and
finer nature, the real man within.
To salvage this was the whole pur-
pose of the ministry Of Jesus. He
placed a higher value upon life'S ca
pacities and potentialitieS than any one
who had gone before. He took the SEEM
ingly lost and forgotten OF earth and
invested them with new hope and
gave them the will to fulfill it, He
banished fear and despair and quick
ened impulses that had long lain
dormant and unrecognized. What may
we do TO salvage life today? What finer
task, yes, what more practical, than TO
revive in men and women the sense of
their real Selfhood, their inner and
better nature, those great qualities OF
the soul that are designed TO survive
all the shocks of time and to grow
despite physical impairment and weak
ness? For though our outward man
perish, the inward man is renewed
day by day" 1t was this conception
of life that prompted the great Master
TO ask: What shall it profit man
if he gain the whole world and lose his
own soul?'

don based their Judgment in part on
the absence Of competitive training for
Mrs. Moody. Dropping out of the game
for a year is an almost insurmountable
hazard for any champion. But Mrs.
Moody has accomplished what she set
out, with characteristic, cool determine
ton, to do. The set she lost to Miss
Jacobs yesterday was only the third set
one by default-she has ever lost to her
hometown rival in eight previous cham
pionship meetings. The superiority OF
her tennis is hardly to be doubted. But
the sequel-yet another sequel-will
probably be written at Forest Hills next
month. Only that match promises to
eclipse in drama and public interest
the one at Wimbledon yesterday.

Battle of the Helens.

Human interest in the battle of the
Helens of Berkeley overshadowed normal
interest in the battle of two great tennis
champions at Wimbledon yesterday. The
personality of the two players and their
resumption of a fight which ended SO
suddenly and under such dramatic cir
cumstances at Forest Hills two years ago
drew gallery of Spectators as wide as
the world. Their match was more than
a tennis match. And while one does not
willingly attribute the sentiments to
either player expressed in the frequent
journalistic forecasts of "grudge fight"
had more at stake than the champion
ship for which they were contending.
For Miss Jacobs the opportunity was
one of removing all cloud to the title
she had won at Forest Hills, when Mrs.
Moody, in the middle of the third set,
with the score 80 against her, walked
to the net and informed her astonished
opponent and the officials that she could
not continue the play. For Mrs. Moody
the task was not only to regain a lost
crown, but to demonstrate the superiority
of her skill over rival who had pressed
her so long and so often before. The
score at Wimbledon attests the keen
ness of the competition and adds to the
real feat represented in Mrs. Moody's
victory.
After her default to Miss Jacobs in
1888, Mrs. Moody had undertaken the
treatment for her injured back-due to a
dislocated vertebra-which consisted
mainly of complete rest, and which
meant giving up tennis altogether. She
did not begin her training for the sea-
son until this Spring. Those who be.
lieved Miss Jacobs would win at Wimble-

The Hard Luck GUY.

This dispatch from Carrollton. Ga,
affords renewed evidence Of the fact that
some men are born unlucky and are
chronically the victims Of mischance:
Nathan Brown, Carroll County farm
er, was stung by q humble bee. Writing
in pain, he dashed to his house for
first aid. On the way he ran across q
green snake, which bit him on his foot.
Then he headed for town for medical
attention. On the way bulldog bit
him."
There was one bit of good luck in
Nathan Browns misadventure. He was
not hit by a motor car while he was
heading for medical succor. That would
indeed have been a climax.
There are some people to whom mis-
fortunes come apparently as a matter
of course. There are others who are
rarely affected by miseries not of their
own making. The hard luck guy" gets
all the bumps. Falling objects find him
as their mark. The careless driver picks
him out for a target. The disease germ
finds Judgment in his tissues. Business
misfortunes beset him.
The chances OF humble bee sting
are slight, even in the open country
where these apian lancers are numerous.
The chances Of a snake bite are slender
as we'll. The chances of bulldog biting
a person are slim. But the chances OF
all three happening to one person in one
day are so attenuated as to require the
use of higher mathematics to express
them. Yet Nathan Brown got them all.
to prove that unlikely, even improbable,
though this combination may be, it can
happen.

of social reform than as a means OF
raising great amounts of revenue.
Government tax experts doubt whether
income tax rates in this country could
be increased enough, even with mar
rowing of exemptions from this tax. to
produce the needed four billion dollars
of added revenue. To apply tax of that
size, whether directly on income or
through a tax on sales, would be ex-
pected to narrow purchasing power and
complicate the recovery problem.
The definite conviction is held by
many important officials that the Fed
eral budget cannot be balanced so long
as the unemployment problem continues
to be acute.
To relieve that problem there must be
a marked revival in private industry.
But how to stimulate this revival is a
mystery that remains unsolved.
President Roosevelts plan has been
tried without solving the problem. In
dustrialists may have a chance to show
what they can do after the Supreme
Court gets through with the New Deal.
The prospect Of an early solution is not
bright.

Watch Dogs,
BY PHILANDER JOHNSON

Watch Dogs.
Guardians of the Nation!
Still you linger near
For elaboration,
Searching and severe.
Watch dogs of the Golfers
Favored by finance,
Threatening each who offers
Any gambling chance.
Watch dogs of our quarrels,
Ready with reproof.
Watch dogs of our morals
With a warning wool.
Creditor and debtor,
Each with patience joys,
Maybe we are better
Going to the dogs.
