to provoke a war and whip the nation
into line behind him within a few
days. Those of us who have hope and
faith in democracy, who really want TO
hold on TO it, who do not propose TO
give it up at the first or even the last
call OF a man with a colored shirt,
must take this matter seriously. 1t is
important for US to know what decis-
ions are being made in secret which
will, in the political field, involve us in
the use of military force or, in the &C.
onomic field, involve us in unemploy-
ment or poverty.
Our few remaining democracies
can survive if they are fought for, but
they a be fought for effectively only
by men who are informed and taught
the inner workings of the world.
Il say these things so much at
length because | feel certain that
within the past few months decisions
of overwhelming importance have
been made which will affect every
young man in the country whether he
is on the farm or on the campus or on
the street or in a forestry camp. With
in the past few months some men have
surely sat down together and said:
Let us look at these measures to keep
us out of war which Congress is con-
sidering.' They looked and saw there a
proposal that no longer should an
American citizen be allowed to travel
on a ship carrying munitions in time
Of war. 1t was a proposal to prevent
people who are careless of their own
lives from involving hundreds of mil
lions of their fellow citizens with their
own particular destinies. 1t was a pro-
posal hat babies and bullets should
not go as mixed cargo. 1t was a pro-
posal with the Lusitania experience in
mind.
"They looked then and saw another
measure being considered by congress.
1t was a measure to prevent the
growth of an abnormal war trade. Al
lowing for normal trade, it said in
effect we shall not sponsor economic
inducements with foreign countries to
a point where our self interest be-
comes automatically the self-interest
of that country purchasing our war
goods. They saw there also a proposal
that we should not allow our financial
structure. to be tied with chains OF
gold to any other nation. No loans
no long-term credits were to be ex-

MODERN BATH ROOMS
HELD ASSET TO HOUSE

ideas Of bath rooms have changed
In the last two or three decades both
as to the number required and the
finish and equipment Of the rooms
themselves. Many houses that are
otherwise completely livable and
structurally sound lack sufdcient bath
rooms of modern equipment to make
them salable or rentable except At
sacrifice prices.
Frequently the money spent on add
ing a bath room or modernizing one
that already exists will come back
many fold by making the house
really marketable. Most houses OF
the vintage of 80 or 40 years ago have
some small rooms or large closets
that can be converted. or some Of the
excess hall space that was then 50

NEW YORK. October 3l.-New
Workers who have decided to go mod
ern In the decoration Of their living
rooms-and q good many have-are
using quite new and different color
schemes for walls. The colors that
used to go with Colonial and eight
eenth century English furniture do
not always show to the best advantage
the light-hued modern woods and
the faded or bleached finishes which
are now so much in vogue. The light
toned. rough-textured upholstery used
on modern chairs and sofas requires
. setting Of its own, too.
In general, light walls are best for
this twentieth century furniture, al
though 1t must be admitted that dar-
ing effects have been obtained with
medium blue and chocolate brown.
Sometimes a grouping Of blond ma
pie or bleached mahogany furniture
around a fireplace Is given an extra
touch of smartness by painting that
wall different color from the other
three. Much discretion. Of course.
Is used in choosing the colors. 1t
Is job for professional decorator.
Off-White Shades Popular.
Off-white shades are extremely pop
ular for walls in modern rooms. They
give a cheerful, well-lighted effect.
On the walls they seem almost white,
but really they have yellowish, pink
ish or grayish blue tone. In an ex-
hibition room Of prominent mid
town department store the window
wall and the opposite one are painted
off-vhite and the two side walls light
Jade green. Light blues. yellows and
terra cottas are other effective COM
binations. Rooms painted entirely in
off-white are. of course, the simplest
backgrounds for modern furniture.
More definite colors-usually in
light tone-give other harmonious
settings for the new furniture. Thus
In a bed roob with light or blond
maple furnishings the walls are paint
ed medium blue. Curtains, uphol-
stery and bed covering are in soft
tones OF beige and white. The pale
green walls Of another bed room are

CHRISTIAN SCIENCE

Christ Jesus" is the subject of
the lesson-sermon which will be
read in all Churches of Christ,
Scientist, Sunday, August 80. The
golden text is "God sent not His
Son into the world to condemn
the world; tbut that the world
through Him might. be saved"
q John SID
Among the citations which
comprise the lesson-sermon are
the following from the Bible:
But when the fullness of time
was come, God sent forth His Son,
made of a woman, made under
the law, to redeem that were I'M
der the law, to redeem them that
were under the law. that we might
receive the adoption of sons"
(Gal. 4:5).
The lesSon-Sermon also includes
the following passage from the
Christian Science textbook, "Sci-
ence and Health with Key to the
Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy:
Born of a woman, Jesus advent
in the flesh partook partly Ut
Mary's earthly condition, although
He was endowed with the Christ,
the divine Spirit, without measure.
This accounts for His struggles in
Gethsemane and on Calvary, and
this enabled Him to be the me-
diator, or way-shower, between
God and man." page 30).

read in Court House hall Sunday
