'BIBLE SHOULD BE READ IN PUBLIC SCHOOLS’-DALE Pastor Makes Piea in Pulpit for Right Moral Training for Young People.. "In training the youth of our land It Is Impossible to leave out God or His word,” said Homer Dale, pastor of the Hillside Christian Church, in his sermon Sunday night on “The Bible in the Public Schools.” “To fail in this essential point is to imperil the very life of the Nation," he said, “for the Nation depends not alone on the intelligence of its citizens, but also on their morality, and the Holy Bible contains every fundamental rule of right conduct and should therefore be read in every public school of the land.” Objections were given due consideration, from the standpoint of the legal status, conflicting religious views, and the attitude of some tdachers. The minister handed the lalter subject with “gloves off,” when he asserted that the “teacher not qualified or not willing to read the Bible in the public schools was not fit to have charge of the moral training of children in the impressionable age.” “She must teach some moraj code in the very nature of things,” he said; “if not that in the Bible, then some other. If reading the Bible without comment to children in school training is repugnant to the teacher, the teacher should be invited to change her vocation. “It is the function of the church to teach the tenets of the Bible and it is the duty of the home to cooperate in this all important matter, but ‘ whenever the public school fails to cooperate with church and home in keeping the fundamental principles of moral training contained in the Bible before the youth of our land, it will be a sad day in American history.” VALUE OF BIBLE STUDY Rev. Gunsolus Shows Value of Real Knowledge of Sacred Book "Bible study alone shows us the needs of our spiritual lives," the Rev. Charles H. Gunsolus said in a sermon Sunday at the Brightwood Congregational Church. “It reveals to us the weak places in our armor, the points of least resistance in our lives.” he said. “It shows us ourselves as we are and therefore as God sees us. To hav e God’s power, we must know His will. To know God’s will we must study God’s word. "The sword of the spirit is the word of God. It is the Instrument which the Holy Spirit makes use of In effecting his purposes and is held out to U 9 as being adapted to every state and circumstance in which we can be placed.” “DAY OF ATONEMENT” WEDNES Jewish Congregations to Celebrate “Sabbath of Sabbaths” Members of local Jewish synagogues will observe Tom Kippur, the “Sabbath of Sabbaths” or “Day of Atonement" Wednesday with special services.

"The disaster in Japan suggests passages of the Bilble wherein God is working out His will,” he said. "The mercy of God is above all His works.

"It is so easy and respectable to become affiliated with the church today,” asserted the Rev. O. B. Moor, pastor of the Immanuel Reformed Church, Sunday in his sermon on "Moral Choice.” "The non-church member will never know what the church of Jesus Chirst stands for until church members know themselves," he declared. ‘THE WORLD’S GREATEST BOOK’ Bible Is Only Writing Inspired, Says the Rev. Frederick Taylor. • “The Bible is the only book that was inspired; it makes claim to being inspired 2,000 times,” declared the Rev. Frederick Taylor, pastor of the First Baptist Church, in his sermon Sunday night on "The World’s Greatest Book,” the first of a series of three lectures on the Bible. CHURCH IS NATION’S AID Rev N. S.

EUROPETOPROVE GREAT FACTOR IN WORLD PROSPERITY Readjustments in American Industry Must Follow in Wake of Settlement, By DR. LEWIS H. HANEY, Director of Bureau of Business Research, New York University. NEW YORK. Sept. 17.—-In view of the more favorable outlook for a settlement of the reparations question between France and Germany, and the passing of the Italian war scare, it will be timely to consider what more stable European conditions are to mean for United States industry. My conclusion is that in the long run the return of Europe to an Increasingly normal condition will be a constructive factor, but that for several years it will bring readjustments in our industry which will cause strain and prevent any graat boom. To begin with, we have an abnormally great volume of gold and money, which tends to keep our price level unnaturally high and to cause Inflation in credit. More than this, we have excess manufacturing capacity in several Important lines. Add to these things the fact that we are a great creditor nation and that Europe is deeply in our debt, and you have the broad outline of the situation. It follows that we are doubly dependent upon European conditions; first, it is our interest that our debtors should be soß'ent; and second. It Is important that Europe should be able t,o buy our surplus raw materials and manufactures. On her side, Europe needs a large quantity of gold to enable her to put her currency on a gold basis and to stabilize her monetary systems. Putting the two sides together, we can see that a great readjustment Is bound to occur, and wo might os well realize that It will take several years. On our part, too, there should be some preliminary adjustment. We should abandon the Idea that we can hold completely aloof from European affairs and should participate to a reasonable extent In helping toward Industrial and political stability. The likelihood of a settlement on the Ruhr in the next few months will aid the great readjustment I have outlined. Immediately, however, it Is likely to disappoint those who have considered it as a “bull” point. I conclude that for several years yet we must live In the shadow of the war. W > have not yet completed our International readjustments. The great financial and foreign trade readjustments described above remain, but can be hastened and made relatively smooth by understanding the problem. We need not expect great prosperity till the world Is prosperous.

LEE TUBES OFFER GREATRESISTENCE Tests on Mohave Desert Prove Need of Heat Combatant, A temperature of more than 160 degrees, even in moderate weather and under ordinary road conditions, is generated in an automobile tire while running, according to tests made by the engineering department of the Lee Tire and Rubber Company. This means that the inner tube must be ao constructed to withstand this and even higher temperature when the occasion arises. C. K. Daniels, local representative of the Lee Company, says: "The experts have found that zinc oxide compounded with rubber forms a greater heat combatant than pure gum. Teste were made In the Intense heat of the Mohave desert and showed that under the most excessive heat white tubes retained their tensile strength with but a alight reduction in elongation while the pure gum tube lost over 30 per cent of its tensile strength and over 37 per cent of Its elongation qualities. "These facts were particularly noticeable in larger sized tubes where more material is involved and was also proved that a white tube will not crack as easy as a pure gum tube, is less subject to puncture and will accept repairs more readily,” Mr. Daniels said.

TRACTION CARS AND FROCKS NOW WORK JOINTLY Agreement Brings Busses Into Auxiliary Service of Electric Line, What is thought to be the first joint freight agreement entered into in the United States by traction and motor bus companies has been made between the Interstate Public Service and a local motor truck company. The public service commission of Indiana has approved a rate for the joint freight service between all points of the Interstate Public Service traction lines and Brownstown, Vailonia and Medora by motor truck by the way of Seymour. This is believed to be the first time that such a rate has been approved by the State body. This was undertaken not only because it was thought that It would open up anew field of business, but because it would be of great benefit to shippers. The rates for freight on this service are the same as those of the steam : line. 1 Freight accepted by the Interstate at Indianapolis as late as 5:30 In the afternoon reaches Brownstown by 10 o’clock the following morning. This service is attracting the attention of shippers in Indianapolis and elsewhere and may be responsible for the development of anew field of business. Freight received here at ij:3C leaves early In the evening on one of the fastest Interstate freight cars, is delivered at Seymour early the next morning and reloaded Immediately on trucks and taken to Brownstown, Me- | dora and Vailonia. Recently a carload of air filters, sent from Louisville to Detroit by way of Indiana {rolls, made the trip in j three days. This was faster by several days than freight transported be- ! tween Detroit and Louisville by the steam roads, and fast or than ex- | press. CRAZED INVESTOR SODCHT AT BANKS Escape From Asylum Brings Unusual Action Here, Police and bank officials today are watching at the withdrawal windows of banks for Carl A. Shirk, 39, smooth face, dark brown hair, sprlngled with gray, top coat, soft shirt and wearing a cap. Bank deposits accounts will bo thoroughly rechecked. Chief of Police Eversman and Frank E. Shirk, both of Richmond, Ind., are j supervising the search. According to j the men, Carl Shirk suffers perfod- | ically with dementia. Some years ago he was confined, but supposedly recovered and was released from an institution. Later he was relieved from guardianship. In a later lapse he spent a large sum of money. Some time before the recent commitment in the institution at Richmond, it was learned that Shirk had deposited a large sum of money in an Indianapolis bank under an assumed name, but would not tell the name. Saturday he escaped from the Institution, stating before, however, that he was going to South America. Police feel that he will attempt to gain possession of this money.
