Army Hands Never Hesitate In Preaching Their Gospel

tian Indian village, would leave no doubt in any mind as to the miracle working power of Jesus Christ. Take look at civilization! The Gospel of Jesus Christ is woven into the very fabric of all civilized liv- ing, unacknowledged perhaps, yet none the less a fact. His influence has brought to life all its loving and tender aspects.
 Our hospitals were started in His name; our care for little children, for the poor, the sick, the aged, the unfit, the unemployed, the dying, the mentally unfit, the misfits of life-all derives its impetus largely from what Jesus said and did.
 He taught that God is our Rather and that God being the Father of all, therefore, a man can stretch forth his hand to every one of his fellows, of all kindreds, tribes and tongues, and say, My brother!"
 And so the Salvation Army mis- isionary has no hesitation in preach ing His Gospel-the Gospel of a Christ who is an Elder Brother-the Gospel of God who is an Eternal Father-the Gospel of 8 love SC mighty that it breaks the power o1 sin, destroys fear and cruelty and superstition, and makes man to live in peaceful fellowship with his brother. As soon as Christianity comes in, ignorance, dirt, disease, and many other evils go out-never to return.

(Frem "The War Cry")

The command of the Saviour to His disciples, "Go ye into all the world and preach the Gospel to every creature" is the compelling urge of Salvation Army missionary work. Non- Christians frequently ask our missionaries, How can you suggest that ou. religion is not ad- equate? How can you ask us to change? You do not know your writings you know little of our philosophy :. how, then, can you so positively urge us to leave our ancient beliefs and embrace your new teaching?"
 One missionary officer, faced with this question, replied, "Your own teachers declare that it would take 300 yaers to fully comprehend Hin- duism. I want to do something to- day!"

Congress Meets.

At the moment when the Seventy

worthy of mention that the National
LEGISLATURE Of the United States is rep
resentative body. In fact, as well as in
theory, that Is both demonStrably true
and impressively significant.
OF course, there are critics who imagine
that some other system, some other de-
vice of government, might be preferred.
But perhaps they are motivated by an
adventurous doctrine Of expediency. 1t
may seem to them that the processes Of
democracy are slow, inefficient, too costly.
Tho gesture of q royal scepter or the
signal of q dictator's thumb may appeal
to their instinct as being more direct and
less expensive. A, benign tyrant, they
may suppose, could be relied upon to
personify the best administration Of an
organized community Of people not wise
enough to comprehend their own best
interest nor competent to serve that In

Red Undersllirts
Not Yet Obsolete

From the Milwaukee Sentinel.
Some months ago the elder generation
OF Americans was stirred to nostalgia
memories by the announcement that the
red flannel undershirt and its companion
piece had become obsolete in our fair
land.
Nowhere it was announced, were these
comforting garments to be found. Even
in the great North woods, 1t was re-
ported, the sturdy hewers OF wood had
abandoned their grateful warmth for the
modern type of underapparel.
Now, we are informed, the alarm has
been found to be groundless. The tired
modern, looking back wistfully to his
boyhood days, can, If he wishes. purchase
the flaming vesture as of yore and re-
joice in the sensation of warmth and
itchiness that marked the advent OF
Winter in his schoolboy days.
The Bureau of Foreign and Domestic
Commerce in Washington, that benef-
icent creation of a great government. IS
authority for the statement that many
people are still addicted to red flannelS
and find no difficulty in supplying their
wants in that regard.
It is good news. The onward march
of time takes from us many cherished
things. The horse and buggy, the parlor
melodeon, the wax flowers in the parlor-
all these have passed into the limbo OF
forgotten things. But the red flannel
undershirt waves proudly from the
clothesline of sturdy America. And a
nation in which it is even mildly prev
alent still possesses the sterner virtues
that we need SO sadly today.

Iron Ore Shipments
Are Nearing Records
From the Duluth News-Tribune.

From the Duluth News-Tribune.
The Lake Superior region shipped this
year to December /. the official close
of navigation, 44,822,023 long tons OF
iron ore. This is big gain above the
shipments for the years 1881 to 1885,
both included. OF this great 1886 total,
33,439,07O tons were shipped from this
port and Two Harbors. Most of this was
st. Louis County ore. The remainder,
about eleven and one-third million tons,
was from Wisconsin and Michigan Lake
Superior harbors.
These 1896 shipments begin to ap-
proach the colossal shipments for the
wears 1925 to 1880. both inclusive. It is
highly probable that the figures for those
years will be equaled or even exceeded
very soon. The 1896 shipments were big
enough to make q big hill of ore, each
of nearly half million tons, on each
mile between Duluth and Ely.
The item Of trafiic transcends imagina-
ton, and 1t does not include ore con-
suned in Lake Superior furnaces. Iron
ore Is really the first settler here. 1t Is

long ago. It's coming was apparently
coeval almost with the earliest known
formations It antedated the glaciers,

Valuable Leadership.

In its annual report the Civil Service
Commission goes beyond the formal re-
quirements of an administrative agency
and takes gratifying stand as champion
not only Of merit system extension and
strengthening, but in behalf of estab-
lishment of career service in the Gov
ernment. That position is in keeping
with the spirit of the times. Public
sentiment is rapidly being developed be-
hind the manifest improvements in eff
cheney and the safeguards against po-
litical abuse which lie in extension of
merit system principles. The Civil Serv-
tageous position in the battles that lie
ahead for wider application of such prin-
ciples, and its vigorous leadership is
welcomed.
The commissions point that present
trends in Government" as represented in
social legislation, emphasizes the basic
Importance of the extension of the merit
system is well taken. More than ever
before the National and the State gov-
ernments are undertaking experiments
in new fields of vast and far-reaching i'm
portance. The social security legislation
is merely one case in point. "The risks
of failure in this new type of legislation"
the commission warns, represent haz-
ards of a new order in American life"
And tho nf ha
opposed to the political barter and sale
OF jobs so important to success of these
legislative experiments, represents great
safeguard against such risks.
Pointing to- the fact that many i'm
portant agencies of presumably per-
manent character" are still outside the
operation of the merit system, along
with many positions in the older estab-
lishments of government, the commission
emphasizes that while standards of per-
sonnel administration" in such agencies
may seem satisfactory, all of them lack
the advantage Of stability and protection
from outside interference (which are
secured through the civil service law"
The commission might have added "and
only through the civil service law"
The action of the new Congress on the
various civil service bills now pending or
proposed will be watched with a great
deal Of interest by the country. With
both political parties having adopted
strong civil service planks. the disap-
pointment and even resentment over
halfway measures will be the keener.
"The public service" said the commits
sion, cannot thrive on a half-merit,
half-patronage basis, whether in ma
tional, State or municipal service" The
tendency of some proposed legislation.
avowedly Strengthening merit system
application, is to 60 just halfway. That
Is the tendency that must be resisted.

When the lines are rules parallel to
each other, each spectrum line has one
sharp and clearly defined image. When
the lines are not parallel there is a
fuzziness in the image, thickening the
spectrum line. These addition faint lines
are the ghosts
Although the machine is capable of
ruling up to 2700O0 lines an inch, such
close spacing is unnecessary for any uses
to which the grating can be put, and
the plates actually are ruled $4,000 to

Another astronomical device reported
to the National Academy by Drs. A. E.
Whitford and G. E. Kron of the Uni
versity of Wisconsin is a photoelectric
cell attachment by which distant star
itself guides the telescope with which
it is being observed.
This automatic guider divides the light
of guiding star into two beams by use
of a rejecting knife edge. The divided
beam of light is made to shine alter
nately on the light sensitive surface of a
photoelectric cell. If the star is not per-
fectly centered on the knife edge, one
beam will be brighter than the other
and produce Pickering intensity. Ampli-
fed by tubes which operate on much the
same principle as radio tubes, this flicker
controls motor which makes the proper
correction to center the stars light on
the knife edge and reduce the flicker

!. S. Making Gains
In Safety on the Sea

From the Rockford Gll) Star.
Lloyd's Register of Shipping, which
takes quite impartial view of such mat
ters, reports that in the Is years from
1920 to 1885, the United States advanced
from sixth place to second place in sea
safety. Only Holland outranked this
country in 1885 in low percentage Of
ships lost in maritime accident, and
the United States stands first among
the major shipping countries. We have
17.16 per cent of world ship tonnage,
against Hollands 4.59 per cent.
Figures on losses for 1885 show that
this country lost IT Of l per cent of
its total shipping in disaster, against
Hollands IL of l per cent. Japan's
losses were heaviest in that year. 1t is
expected that 1896 will show an even
better figure for the United States, with
the possibility of this country going into
first place.
The record of increasing safety is one
the whole Nation may be proud Of. We
may not sweep the North Atlantic with
express liners capturing blue ribbons for
speed, but to greater extent than any
other major maritime nation our ships
