Sunday school at 10 o'clock.

"Is the Universe, Including
Man, Evolved BY Atomic
Force?" is the subject of the
Lesson-Sermon which will be
read in all Churches of Christ,
Scientist, on Sunday, June q,
1910.
The Golden Text is: 10, he
that formeth the mountains,
and createth the wind, and de-
claretn unto man what is his
thought, that maketh the NOR
ming darkness, and treadeth up
on the high places of the earth,
The Lord, The God of hosts,
is his name" (Amos 4: 49,.
Among the citations which
comprise the Lesson-Sermon is
the following from the Bible:
I'm the beginning was the
Word, and the Word was with
God, and the Word was God.
The same was in the beginning
with God. All things were made
by Him; and without him was
not anything made that was
made" John 1: l, 2, 81.
The Lesson-Sermon also in
ciudes the following passage
from the Christian Science
textbook, Science and Health
With Key to the Scriptures" by
Mary Baker Eddy: "The true
theory of the universe, includ-
ing man, is not i'm material his
ory but in spiritual develop
ment. Inspired thought relin-
quishes a material, sensual and
mortal theory of the universe,
and adopts the spiritual and
immortal" Up. SAD.

General George c. Marshall,

responsible for this one. The
General concluded it would be
nice to send a congratulatory
message for good work to Ad-
miral Harold B. Stark, Chief of
Naval Operations, but it never
reached Admiral Stark. A
ground radio receiver mistook
the letter "a" in Admiral Stark's
name for an co., and a COM
munication operator somewhere
along the line of dispatch con-
cluded the sender was facetiouS-

admiral Stork," and promptly
sent the message to the Antarc-
tic. Well, a stork is a bird.

Editor ASkOv American:
Thirty-three disbursements groups
discussed unemployment cOmpensa-
ton at the University recently.
1t seems strange that none men
toned the cause of unemployment,
but all were trying to overcome the
effect, namely. unemployment conf
pensation.
For an intelligent conclusion, we
must first find the cause.
We all know there is unlimited pub
lie and private work that should be
done.
Not long ago, the Minneapolis city
council considered a large program
of street improvements including sew
eral bridges over the Mississippi.
The school board is clamoring for
more buildings.
No forward looking person will deny
the need of these and untold numbers
of other improvements running into
hundreds of millions.
But, under our present fiscal pro-
ceedure of issuing Understanding
tax-exempt bonds, the cost becomes
prohibitive. Because frequently the I'M
earned tribute paid to the money ma
nipulators, under the guise of inter-
est, amounts to much more than the
original cost. There are numerous in
stances in st. Paul, Minneapolis ana
elsewhere substantiating this state
ment.
| Businessmen should demand of Con-
gress to assert its power and duty to
issue constitutional money with
which to finance the needs of the fed
eral government, as we'll as to lend to
it's political subdivisions, without in
terest, the necessary funds with which
to finance all useful permanent pub
lie Improvements.
The annual interest-burden on tax
exempt bonds is over S2,OOO,O0O,O 900
| for which society does not receive a
dimes worth of wealth in return.
Let us issue constitutional money
instead of Understanding, tax-ex-
empt bonds and transform this two
billion dollar interest-burden into tan
gible wealth. $4,000, 100000 would pay
an annual wage of $500 to 100000
unemployed men and women, working
full time in the production of new
wealth. In brief, under this system.
every man and woman, able and will
ling to work could be given employ
ment at decent living wage.
This would solve the unemployment
problem and eliminate the need of
unemployment compensation or in
Surance.

GUNS, AIRPLANES AND TAXES
Montgomery Messenger)


General Hugh Johnson recently Of
fered some sage and simple economic
advice in his column. Speaking of de-
tense demands, he said, What we
need is not merely more taxes but
more revenue and more production.
Excessive taxes produce three re-
suits as sure as sunrise. They reduce
total revenue because they invariably
increase all prices, and reduce pro-
duction and employment. They do the
latter for another reason. Since they
must be paid at all events, they de-
crease the incentive for people to in
vest to produce. We must finance pro-
ductiOn by putting private capt.
tai to work, or we shall pay for the
failure to the end of our days. The
way to keep it from working is I'M
reasonably to increase taxes on it's
normal gains"
Some persons have come to feel
that, in the light of our gigantic de-
Tense expenditures, anything goes
will have to be our policy so far as
taxation is concerned. That is dam
gerouS. Nothing can be so destruc-
tive to our economy as unsOund tax
alton. If Congress goes ahead in he'll
ter-skelter fashion, piling tax bill on
tax bill with little regard for cause
and effect, this country might as
we'll kiss it's hopes for eventual Sc
curity, stability and prosperity good
bye. If we drive capital out of exist
ence, what can we tax to finance. the
factories and the assembly plants and
the rest of the industrial machine
which is necessary to producing the
instruments of peace, no less than the
weapons of defense?
Congress clear duty is to sit down
and study taxes and tax systems from
beginning to end before it even con-
siders another revenue bill. 1t must
see to it that the burden is equitably
distributed-that it does not unnec-
essarily penalize enterprise and pro-
gress-that it does not make for price
inflation-that, in short, it doesn't
ruin the country we are working to
defend. Congress has no time to waste.
A workable tax policy is as much
part of a sound defense program as
guns and airplanes.

GOOD NEWS FOR THE
NORTHWEST
Pope County Tribune)


The greatest news that has come
out of Washington, as far as the
Northwest is concerned, for many
years is that which was announced
last week, that President Roosevelt
is going to try to secure the st. Law
renee waterway at once. Few people
in the Northwest realize what it
would mean to secure the st. Lawrence
waterway. 1t would mean that Du-
luth would become a seaport during
the time of the year when navigation
is open. Ships from all over the world
would come to Duluth. What will
mean the most to the Northwest is that
grain will be worth several cents more
d bushel because it is cheaper to ship
by water to foreign lands than to ship
by rail and then reload on a boat.
Up to the time of the building of the
Panama canal, the Northwest enjoyed
comparative prosperity. When the
Panama canal was dug, the freight
that had come across by rail was
shipped by water, and as a conse-
quence, the Northwest suffered. The
building of the st. Lawrence water
way will bring back that trade to the
Northwest, which they lost a quarter
of a century ago. The building of this
waterway will also provide enormous
production of electricity which can be
sold at a greatly reduced cost to the
public.
President Roosevelt has consistent
ly fought for the St. Lawrence water
way, but Canada Of late years has not
seen fit to make the proper treaty
with the United States. On account of
the World war, Canada is now in a
mood for cooperating with the United
States. Therefore, it seems that this
dream of generations is about to be
realized.

EDUCATION"
Editor Askov American:

Editor Askov American:
1t is becoming quite apparent that
the so-called fifth column is spread
ing propaganda in this country, favor
able to Russia, Germany and Italy.
But, unquestionably Americans are
too intelligent to be fooled by this
crude propaganda. So the British tell
us.
Through the foresight and kindness
of En- gland and with the help OF
American educators, actors, writer's,
commentators, many of whom now
and then take a peep over the Allie
ghenies, an educational drive is now
under way to counterfeit German
propaganda and set Americans right
Within a year many a S on h d
Americans have been educated or re-
educated and have learned the fol-
lowing things: That this is our war;
that this is another war for demcc-
racy; that we should finance this war;
that any country which sides with
England is a democracy including
Turkey; that this will be the last war,
England wins.
A new version has been given to
history to the general effect that the
war was mostly Ger
man propaganda and was fought by. a
German king on the British throne

THE POWER OF PUBLIC SPEECH
(Grand Rapids Herald-Review)

(Grand Rapids Herald-ReVleW)
The power of public speech is still
the greatest influence in public life.
The power of oratory has had vast
effect in important causes. Even be-
fore the day of the radio, when every
one might hear, great orators accom-
plished great ends.
Perhaps the greatest triumph Of
public speech was the change of SEN
timent in England towards the United
States at the time of the Civil War.
That great change was brought about
by the greatest of American preachers,
Henry Ward Beecher.
In 1863 England was considering
aid to the south. The war had cut
off shipment of American cotton to
the spinning mills of Great Britain.
Henry Ward Beecher was asked to go
to England. He agreed to make five
speeches in great industrial centers,
the last to be in London. At his first
speech men attended with cudgels, so
intense was the feeling. The great
minister was heckled, but he knew
what to do. He finished his speech.
The next talk was better. The final
one in London was great triumph.
In all his great orations he showed
the effect of slavery upon working
men throughout the world.
Those five addresses by the great
preacher changed the attitude of an
empire.
The great teacher of public speech,
Thomas Trueblood of the University
of Michigan tells how Beecher spoke
Here are few words of description.
His method of delivery was plain,
direct, earnest, high-bred conversa-
tiOnalism, no sing-song or Heavenly
informing. His voice was strong and
wide of range. He spoke with his
whole body, face, head, arms and legs.
He liked large platform and used
it freely. He had no desk, only small
table at the back of the platform fer
his Bible and hymnal. When the la
dies of his church wanted to provide
one of those barrel-like pulpits, he re-
piled, mot unless you furnish me a
bag to put my legs in when l come
to call on you" Nobody wanted to
miss word of his sermon. He once
said to his congregation: eff the sex
ton finds anyone asleep in my audi
ence he is to come up here and wake
me up"
