Famous Bank’s Nickname The origin of ‘‘The Old Lady of Threadneedle street," the nickname of the Bank of England, never has been definitely established, according to the Kansas City Star, but the London Economist traces the appellation back M far as May 22, 1707, when William Pitt Induced parliament to suspend cash payments at the bank. This moved Gilray to draw his famous cartoon, which shows an old lady, seated on a chest labeled “Bank of England,” being savagely attacked by Pitt. But it Is argued. Gilray may have made use of an old idea. As early as 1006, a medallion‘appeared, and still appears, on the bank’s notdfs. It consist! of a seated, draped figure, with the head uncovered, holding a sprig in one hand and a spear in the other, and more than two hundred years It has remained substantially the same. ror Riddles Three to Five As the child's eyes and bands become more capable of definite ulms—between three and five years of age—the toys used In a well-conducted kindergarten will Interest the youngsters Immensely In his home and provide it not only with amusement but with the first tangible instruments of real educational advancement.—George Newell Moran.

Odd Fellows Celebrate Their 107th Birthday by Attending Services at Presbyterian Church

(Continued from Page One). liarly adapted- to a consideration of the ideals of this order, for faith is a primary condition to friendship, hope is dependent upon the truth of revelation, and love is the necessary means whereby all worthy ends and aims are to be accomplished. We have then friendship, truth, and love; but the greatest of these is love. These are life's fundamentals and without them no civilization can long survive. The Egyptian, Greek and Roman civilizations, though developed to a remarkable state of efftcien jcy, coufil .not endure the test of time when ignorance and contempt of these fundamentals marked off the periods of their national existence. A nation can be no better than its most depraved, freer than its most oppressed, richer than its poorest, nor wiser than its most ignorant. The laws of human progress demand the association of individuals togeth er on terms of equality, and the pres ent age can, foster, develop and advance an ideal state of social and economic harmony only as the man hood of the age which has charge ol material advancement pttt into world practice the three life's fundamen tals. This is the fiat of the Eternal Justice that rules the world, and ap proximately two million Six hundred thousand adult citizens are pledged in the Independent Order of Odd Fel lows to exteqd friendship, love, and truth to all the world. In the realm of human relationship the very first principle of fellowship is fraternity, and from this principle we learn to regard the Great Author of our existence as Our. Father. Jesus consistently taught that the All Wise - Supreme Intelligence who watched over the destiny of mankind was his Father, and the Father also of who-so-ever would become his obedient sons. Thus intelligent men are lead into the light and knowledge that "he in whom alone we live, and move, and have our being” is the true ~ Father of the great Brotherhood of. man who are included in this great fraternity through ] the acquired knowledge of revealed trutlu*" Fraternal organizations are useful to the developing program of- ciyili- 1 zation only as they perform their proper function in augmenting the alleviation of human suffering, supplementing the character building in- ‘ stitutions of the social and economic order, and substantiating the constituted authority of law and order as represented in the functioning of municipal, county, state and national government. An ideal state of existence is forever impossible without an application of the true spirit of fraternity. To disregard the fraternal relationship as between brother and brother is to court disaster, trifle with the unalterable judgements of Almighty God, invite radical and destrtictive forces to Witness the decay of our vaunted civilization, and to flirt with certain doom. To unite together on the sacred principles of friendship, love, and truth is to give a promise to the future that we are pledged to stands together on these ideals of fraternal brotherhood until injustice and oppression, hatred and jealousy, intrigue and deceit, and crime and warfare are relegated to their rightful -

I place In an inferno Os public nbhorj ance, and the everlasting condemnation o_fjmen;-until truth shall have a hearing, friendship shall -burn as incense in the hearts and minds- of men redeemed by the Power of God, and love shall have triumphed over the baser impulses which have troubled the human breast; until our commonwealth consecrated to these ideals and sanctified to their achieve ment, under the word of God, wjth the church of Christ, with the constitution of these United States as our foundation and with the Stars and Stripes in Old Glory flung to the breeze, shall be able, to join in a universal chorus: "Praise God from whom all blessings flow, Praise Him all creatures here below. Praise Him above ye heavenly host Praise Father, Son, and Holy , Ghost." \ Fraternal organizations have sometimes been accused of fostering crime, protecting criminals, and of enabling law violators within their various organizations to escape the just penalty of the law. This accusation has not been substantiated with any definate proof. The aggregate membership of the fraternal 01 ganizations are aware that violations of the nation’s laws are not only prosecuted from within the lodges, but tho&e who are found morally corrupt and notable vicious are expelled from benefits and membership in their respective orders. * - - - The secrecy of the lodges is also assailed as being unchristian and contrary to the teaching of Scripture as well as harmful to tlie best interests of modern civilization. This view is not consistent with either the actual teaching of- the-Word or ! human experience. On one occasion the chief priests and the scribes sought of Christ his authority for the things which he did, and Christ responded, "I will not tell you by what authority I do these things.’’ Again Christ commanded his disciples that they should go and tell no man. Every happy home in America is a little secret society, in which there aie scenes and transactions that are not made public. What would be the result if all the secrets of all these little secret societies should be revealed and become the subjects o. public gossip? What would be the result if the ministers of the land should violate contidences placed hi them and should tell what they kno>v of the intimate affairs of their parishioners? Tne missunderstanding unsympathetic, scandal loving, radical minded, breeders of discord and discontent could veiily wreck oui social order. Yes, secrecy of thingb Vv mch need not be told is very much consistent with the spirit, practice and teaching of the Christian faith. This worth in which we live, move and have our beingj is filled witn tlu iucun.esrations of enmity. Wars and rumors of wars everywhere. Distrus. of mankind is increasingly prevalent. Tne true spirit of Friendship when manifested either between individuals or nations, is as a fragrant breath from heaven. The’ Christian ana uaternai organizations of Protestant civilization have a great oh jective before them in spreading the Gospel of Faith and Friendshp a mong the children of men until rivers of blood shall flow no more, and

oceafls of battle gore give place to a reign of righteousness with peace and brotherhood fbr all. and warfare is outlawed as a means- of seitUagnational and international iiisput.es. Solomon .said, ’’Buy the tlfflll. unc sell it not; also wisdom and instruc tion, and understanding." Jesus also said, “Know the truth, and the truth shall hiake yon free." Lying and deceit are the very seeds of discord, which ripening, and harvesting, bring Into the reliitionsr of men - an over abundance,, of—strife and misunderstanding. With wise and learned men disa greeing on the interpretations ot revelation, with modernist and funda mentalist hurling accusations a', each other, with wots and drys shout ing so loud that all the world imgbhear, the Average man is almost tempted to stand with Dilate and ash that old threadbare question, "What is truth?" The answer to this question is not to repeat some time honored creed of man’s invention, rely upor some philosophic interpretation, noi yet to draw final conclusions from the multitudinous, and multiplex cx periences of human achievement but to know the truth is to follow the Master of Men as He reveals Himself in the declaration, “I an the Way, and the Truth, and thi Life.” Hatred is the antithesis of Love. As life's three fundamentals —Friend ship, love, and truth—are ignored Hatred spiings up, intollerance develops and impossible conditions to human fellowship increai^j; Only as love as a crowning virtu-., gains control of the human emotions only as faith and hope in friendship and truth develop in love, can men come into a state of fraternal fellowship where the discordant elements of strife is removed, and then, and not till then can men realize that condition of human relationship anticipated in the prayer which Jesus taught his disciples to pray, “They will be done on earth, as ii is in heaven.”

If we hate with a hate that is sure enough. And love with a love that Is pun enough, Thy Dream for man shall yet havi birth, THY KINGDOM come on earth!' Joy Registered When Lott Goose Returned The flock bore eastward high over the Columbia—save for a single bird that must have passed above the gunner ere be fired. This goose drove to the west above and along the river, and at every wing stroke the distance between bird and flock widened. They faded from sight. The call of the lost goose, the voice of the flock, merged gradually Into silence, shading away until one heard only the ceaseless whisper of the current. Presently, far to the west, the call came faintly forth again and grew In volume. The lost goose was described as a frantic hurrying speck, tacking hither and thither. His cry was rapidly repeated, which Is not the habit of Canadas, and beyond all misunderstanding It was not only plaintive but perturbed, i— ... —_ At a quarter mile in the air he drove past, seeking far to eastward, only to retrace his course, constantly calling, and to retrace It time and again. He heard them a full minute before we did, for on the Instant his cry was Joyous and confident and his flight to the east took a determined and resolute direction. And then, distant as a dream, faint and far, we caught the bugles of the returning flock. Were they, too, searching? But surely there was elation In their quickened clamor when the lost one literally hurled himself among them, and took his rightful place. They rose to the flight lnne. The V took shape, and southward they drifted, southward. Wild geese! Filial Devotion That Dared Tyrant’s Rage Margaret More was the daughter of Sir Thomas More, lord chancellor of Henry VIU, tlie bigamous monarch. At the time of the Reformutlon and the king’s divorce and subsequent marriage with. Anna Boleyn, Henry demanded that More, an ardent Catholic, should give his assent to the marriage, which Sir Thomas refused on principle and law. He was committed to the Tower and beheaded and his head stuck upon a pike and exhibited on London bridge. Margaret, his beloved daughter, undaunted by fear or danger, had a trusty servant row her at nightfall to tlie bridge, She kept the boat steady in the current while the servant climbed to the pier, loosened the of her father and dropped it into the lap of his devoted daughter. She buried the head in the garden of the house In Chelsea, and-with no realization of the heroism of her act, she became the mainstay of tlie afflicted family.— Advertiser Magazine. Old Traditions Kept Many of tlie old traditional English expenditures are slill to be seen on the London city accounts for tlie year. The lord mayor draws his salary “in lieu of- all ancient fees and emoluments.” He has at the same time a “furniture allowance for the Mansion house,” and a “robe allowance.” The official city swordbearer, the city trumpeter, the ancient ale conners and the vergers of St. Paul’s cathedral are still on the list of salaried officials. Another Item of expense Is labeled “open spaces,” which being translated means the cost of parks and commons. Another entry says “For cloth delivered, according to ancient custom, to ministers of state and others,” while there are expensive entries under the entertainment of foreign royalty “for the cost of writing and illuminating the (presentation) scroll.” Old Language Revived Creditable and hopeful though It may be for a revival of Hebrew culture, the establishment of a Hebrew university In Jerusalem does not begin to compare In Importance with the fact that little children are again talking, playing their games and calling each other names In that language of the prophets, which had once been classed as one of the world’s dead tongues. Zangwlll said that the ' Index of life Is- speech. This Is true. I A people that speaks Is not dead. And In order that world Jewry might share In this renaissance, .which Sophie Irene Loeb called “the greatest experiment of the century," there must be somewhere In this world a place where the Jew will have at least cultural predominance. And that place Is Paletlne.~Plerre Van Paassen, In the Constitution

\ ■ Grewsame Relic ... i; The finger ot Galileo Is shown under a glass case In the Florence museum. It stands, a mysterious-looking bit of parchment, pointing towards heaven. The hand to which It belonged Is supposed to have been put to the torture by the inquisition for ascribing motion to the earth, and the finger Is now almost worshiped for having proved the motion. So Well They Might The first tourist launch was put upon Lake Josephine, .way up In the Rockies of Glacier National park this season. Its Initial trip in the mountain wilds was greeted by half a dozen golden eagles that hovered among the mountain peaks looking down In apparent wonderment at the arrival of this unusual “water thing."
