GAS RATES AFFECTED. Officials of the American Gad Association en June 30th voiced strong opposition to that portion of the proposed tariff bill which places a duty of thirty-five cents a barrel on crude petroleum ami twenty-five cents a barrel on fuel oil. They stated that such a duty would add further to the cn?t of living by increasing the price 'of gas service to the consumer. "Less than two years ago," said Oscar H. Fogg. Secretary-Manager of the Association, "many gas companies who are members of tlm Association were notified by the oil companies whose customers they had been for many years that assurance could not be given of a '.mtinued and dependable supply of gas oil, a petroleum distillate largely used in the manufacture of artificial gts. "It was stated at the time that the depletion of the oil supply of the country was becoming so serious as to threaten exhaustion insofar as the grades cf oil used in gas manufacture were concerned, and many gas companies experienced great difficulty and in some cases found it impossible to negotiate new contracts for gas oil even at the prohibitive1 and unprecedented prices that then prevailed. "The gas industry consumes annually about twentyfour million barrels of gas oil and such a tariff as that proposed would increase the price of this essential material and in turn would add to the living costs of thirty million pecple who depend upon gas manufactured in processes using oil.

INCREASE IN CHURCH ATTENDANCE. S'early 45,000.000 of the 105.000,000 people in the United Statea are Erectly affiliated with some one of the several religious denominations, booking back 25 years it is seen that cfturch touioership in this period has nearly doubled, while the population has Increased but 65 per cent. It was freely predicted that the war would have the effect of increasing respect for religion, bnt the growth recorded in census reports shows a gradual rather than a spectacular increase in church affiliation if that may Ve taken as aji index of religicus feeling. The war did emphasize spiritual values and perhaps by so doing it drive quite as many into the extreme of materialism once the tension was released, as it made converts for iner inner life of which membership in a church Is but one of many possible outward symbols. The crgy of materialism that immediately followed he war not over-looking tbe materialism that was manifest during it probably is today as great a force for the essentials of religion as any that could be de-v'sed-And this materialism, exhibited in eating, drinking, spending, competing in display with one's neighbors, and in a general emphasis on the exterior tather than cn the interior values, was the culmination of long years of just such falscideal8 of life ideals that found their natural and inevitable outlet in a clash or arms involving the whole world. Rut every poison has its antidote, and the antidote for this was being formed f ven while the effects cf the poison seemed nt its height. The antidote i the vision of a life which recognizes, not with lip service only, but with a conviction flowering in daily, common Hfe, that Spirit is eternal above matter, and the things of the spirit eternally above all that matter in its several guises as wealth and power and pesition can offer. But the essentials of religion are limited to no one church, no one creed, no one dogma. It is natural, how ever, to infer that, while many spiritually-minded men and women for reasens of their own remain outside the church, a goodly number of those within are there because they realize, either dimly or clearly, that the fundamentals of religion offer the only cure possible for the ills of a civilitation which in the past has rather i.verstressed the triumphs of science, invention and other material agencies over the immortal factors in living. Increasing church attendance, within these limits, is an encouraging sign.

FOR BETTER OR FOR WORSE. A hot sun in the eastern sky shon Saturday morning on the polished hoods of two cars cars with a pastThrongs cf spectators looked at the now quiet machines trying to imagine the scenes through which they had passed the inherent power chained by the law, forbidding them the freedom of the open road, the roaring motor, and the wild ciase through a ccrdon of watchful policemen and booze agents. You have guessed correctly they are booze cars. Bold, bad booze runners mounts with a past. It isn't m bad, however. They have a promising future. Saturday they were auctioned off in front of the Federal Building to the highest bidder. It may be that these cars have in store for them a quiet life, until the junk man takes them into his own. It may be that the short respite from their labors is only a rest for the work to come. Perhaps the ramping, r'aring, rip snorting chase on the road will be theirs again some day it all depends. Standing at the curb, they seemed to be dreaming more cf a warm garage, plenty of oil and a smooth road. They seemed to repent the crimes of a misspent life, and long for a chance to forget and atone at tne service of some nice, respectable business or pro-

fesfionaj man. You never can tell, though, that these 1

cars have been bad actors.

PARIS IS making great ado over a futurist band "frulteurs" or noise makers which in playing imitates natural sounds. Didn't they ever hear a trap drummer over there?

TROTZKY IS predicting that Great Britain and the nited Statea -will be at war In 1924. Fortunately, Trotzky has failed to qualify as anything but a very inexpert seer.

MAXIM, INVENTOR of the gun silencer, has created a similar device for traction cars. We humbly direct his attention to the early morning delivery of milk.

A new way to put up berrie

sauces.

Here is a new way of putting up berries for Winter use. It s so easy and simple that even an inexperienced cook can follow it safely and successfully. It is called "Lorain" Oven Canning, because it is done in the oven of a gas range equipped with the "Lorain"' Oven Heat Regulator. Select fresh, ripe berries. Pick clean, wash and put into sterilized glass jars. Pour in enough syrup, made of one cup sugar to four cups of water, to fill within '4 inch of top. Put on tops loosely, then place jars in oven. Set "Lorain" wheel at 250 degrees and forget all about it for one hour. Then remove jars, screw tops on tightly and that's all there is to it.

The result will be raspberries, gooseberries, blueberries or blackberries for pie; desserts, that will taste as though just picked.

You can put up all kinds of fruit and vegetable; the same way, just as easily, and have a preserve shelf loaded down with good things to eat all during the long Winter months when such things are luxuries, CLARK jT t

are equipped with the "Lorain" Oven Heat Regulator. You should see these beautiful and economical stoves. They represent the last word in range construction. Let us tell you about "Lorain" and how it reduces the hours of kitchen work to the minimum. Ask about whole meal cooking in the oven and about putting up vegetables, fruits and berrie the "Lorain" way. We have a book for you on "LORAIN" OVEN CANNING. May send it to you? If so, write for it, or, better still, drop in and get it.
