The text "So he made it again,", Jeramiah 18th chapter, 4th verse In his sermon Tuesday afternoon Rev. W. A. Sunday said: Among all the human crafts none is more wonderful than that of the potter. It's a mingling of the vision of the mind through the functions of the fingers. They give expression to the vision otherwise it could not be seen. Man is peculiar among the animals in that he has the power to originate and create. Also he is the only animal that has a thumb, which permits him to be dexterous with his hands - - "valvi v-.u ., ma uouuu.

In the midst of my sermon a huge, drunken fellcfw reeled into the tent. He interrupted me all through my talk. When I had finished and called for converts he stumbled his way up to me, put out his grimy paw and said: "Bill, I'll go you one for luck on it." He said he'd go me one for luck, but he meant it in earnest. That man wag a graduate of Yale university . whom the devil had dragged down to the patns or infamy m which I found him.

Fr centuries it has been the cus,om " Hl' Thursday for the rulers or some European nations to wash and them gifts, making a spectacular public ceremonial of this act of chiistion humility. This custom was observed by rulers of some of the imperial dynasties that collapsed as a result of the World war. The kings and queens of England went through the same ceremony for centuries and it was a regular part of the Lenten services in the royal palace until the day 1 of Queen Victoria. Its origin, no doubt, goes back to the time when emperors came to Canossa , and stood barefooted in a court begging for reinstatement into the church. Prir.ce Charlie, who ended the reign of the Puritans, washed the feet of beggars. So did his stupid brother, James, who lost his throne for the Stuarts. Royal example was followed by folk in high position, who vied with each other in the quality and the quantity of the gifts which they gave away after going through the ceremany of humility and serving the beggars with food. About 62.400.000 shorts tons of stnno were quarried in the United States in lzi, according to tne geological survey. This is more than 20 per cent less than the production in 1920.

"Lycidas" was written about a man otherwise unknown. Edward Kin pi - in PtirCfiO il-lrlr " Me immortalized himself and was i I 1111-.., memorial! poem, "Adonais." Had not Tennyson written "In Memoriam,' Nobody would ever have heard or his friend Henry Arthur Hallam. They were bosom companions, and Hallam was engaged to Tennyson's sister. Arthur Hugh Clough and Matthew Arnold were at "Tom Brown's" school together. "Thrysis," Arnold's lament for his friend, is a noble tribute. FIRST F lj i The "Gordian Knot," according to mythology, was tied by a peasant named Gordius, who, while driving his voke of exen, was hailed kins of Phrygia by the citizenry, whd had been informed that a new king to replace the unpopulah Midas, would come to them riding in a car. Gordius came along opportunely and received ihe kingshiD. Out of gratitude he dedicated his! car and yoke to Zeus. The yoke was fastened by a leather thong, tied so cleverly that no one was able to undo it. A convenient oracle finally declared that whoever should untie the knot would become ruler of all Asia. When Alexander the GGreat in the course of his campaign came to Gordius he was . - - - - shown the knot and tried unsuccess fullv to untie it. Recnmins- imnationt he drew his sword and cut the knot and afterwards actually fulfilled the prophecy of the oracle, gaining ascendency over all the known portion of the continent. THREE GO GOLFING The Rev. Charles Woodman, Rev. H. S. James and Bob Matthews, of the Sunday party, were playing golf at the Country club Monday afternoon. Some friends who stopped to watch the party must have had a bad effect on the playing, for Matthews said: "Between the three of us, we have been placed here that no one has ever been before."

RICHMOND, IND., MAY 16, 1922.

The old man used to try to carve but his weak eyes and failing bam spoiled his work. But while the fathe: slept at night the great Herkame. would go over the old man's figures and they would emerge from hit hands as wonderful bits of sculpture Yes, give yourselves to God and let Him put the Master's touch to the things you do. It is wonderful. A group of tourists were once about to enter the catacombs in Rome. While they were still in the daylight the guide gave each a candle and lighted it. The tourists laughed at the feeble rays of the candle, because their light hardly showed in the bright sunshine. So it is with us. In the glare of the world of society, wealth and pleasure we don't think of God, or if we do it seems a feeble thought, but when we are sick or in trouble then we think of Him and the glory of His presence illuminates everything. I knew a cirl who eavpi im hfr inm 'V wanted to send her absent I in her new home. After much deto go to China as a missionary. Her GIVE EXPLANATION OF NORTHERN LIGHTS Tho f-. i . A. , The fact has been recognized that the splendid phenomena of the North-j era Lights, or aurora borealis, are uue iv eiecinc acuon producing lumi,nosity in the upper regions of the at-1 "lospn!re' Perhaps 5 miles or more rhTaVTe precise manner in which the electric energy acts in such a case rpmnine to ! be explained . Since the discovery some time ago of the constituent of the atmosphere to which, on account nf its inoi-tnoeo ' ... mr-ou, ,he name arSon has been given (the ing "lazy, idle, doing nothing") many' experiments havo hoon m.rio w experiments have been made by chemists to determine the properties of tnis curious element. The very interesting suggestion has been made that the Northern Lights may be due to the argon contained in the upper atmosphere. This idea is based on the fact that, while a scientist was experimenting electrically with argen contained in a test tube, a splend'.d flouresence was develoDed. .-icim-.u uuuirsciiie was developed, the light of which, as tested by the ' spectroscope, resembled that of the i

aurora borealis. It is thought thatimany hours of study and fitting, and!

argon, or some element associated with it may, under the influence of electric currents developed in the high regions of the air, produce a floures cent combination, giving vise to the strange lights that we observe there. HOW SHINPLASTER TERM ORIGINATED The original shinplaster was a small Cm.nn 1- T 1 'loyumc ji.iiin ui uiuwu paper, usually - ; saturated with vinegar, tar. tobacco juice .or the like, which formerly was applied by the poor people to sores on the leg. John Russell Bartlett. in his "Dictionary of Americanisms." says that the term as aDDlied to continental currency originated from an old Revo lutionary soldier wno possessed a quantity of these notes, which he could not get rid of, very philosophically made use of them as plasters for a wounded leg. However that may be. the name came into early use in the United States for notes issued on private responsibility.

MADE PREDICTION OF WIRELESS PHONE From the Toronto Globe. A remarkable imaginative prediction of wireless telephony was made by Grant Balfour (J. M. Grant) of Toronto, In a triologue which appeared in an English magazine in 1889, and was afterward reproduced in a pamnhlnt entitle KDnliint. T.-lsl II. . ..uuticu uaui .irv xvuni, in u brew words meanine the voice of lightning. The characters of this lit tie treatise were represented as in the neighborhood of the Jordan. "The prophet now took from his girdle.' says the narrative, "a small instrument resembling a trumphet for the deaf. Coming down to Mohammed, he asked him to turn his right side toward the south an to put the broad end of the instrument to his right ear. The prophet then inquired where his home was. " 'My home,' replied the prophet. 'Is in the extreme south of Arabia, fourteen hundred miles away.' "'Listen now,' said "the prophet: dost thou hear the sound of waves?' " 'I do,' replied the sheik. 'Where may they be?' ." These waves, answered the prophet, 'are the waves of the Indian ocean breaking upon the Arabian shore. further describing the instrument, the prophet said: "The thing before thee is but a rude Dattern in rart nf the coming needed device of man.

Such notes abounded during the financial panic beginning with 1837, and luring the early part of the civil war. After the latter period they were replaced by fractional notes issued by the government and properly secured, to which the name "shinplaster' was transfered. TOUCHING FAITH From the Retail Ledger.

TODAY'S BEST STORY IN BILLY'S SERMON Make yourselves plastic to the will of God so that He can mould you In perfect form. Don't thwart Him, don't resist. Let God tell Richmond. His message through your lips and your lives. I was out In a town in Indiana, some years ago, and I went to a pottery there, and I saw a friend of mine at work. He said, "Bill, I'll make you a Corinthian vase." So he started in to make the vase. But when It was almost finished the clay developed some defect, and he couldn't make a perfeet vase out of it. My friend, the potter, looked at the vase that wouldn't be formed right., and he said, "Bill, there's something wrong here; I can't make a Corinthian vase out of that. The only thing I can do with this now is make it into a spittoon." , I expect that God Almighty meant to make Corinthian vases out of a lot of you, but you've thwarted Him and the best He could do with some of you Is to

make cuspidors. So whether we are on the wheel of circumstances, trials, disappointments, suffering, let us say: Thou art the potter and we are the clay, Morning and evening and day after day Thou turnest Thy wheel and our substance is wrought Into form at Thy will, into shape at Thy thought Well, thank you Lord. We don't deserve all Your mercy and goodness, but we're grateful for it. We thank You that You didn't cast us into the devil's heap. We thank You that You gave us a chance. O Lord, we know that those who are sinners today walk in the paths of wickedness and misery only be cause they thwarted Thee. Help us io yieia ourselves to Thy will scores and hundreds hpr nAa'-i5 themselves to God. and . ,,r You forever, through Jesus Christ, our Savior. Amen. YOUNG M.

AFTERNOON AND EVENING SERVICES

HOME SPIRIT NEEDED FOR BETTER LIVES Miss Kinney Believes Parents Too Negligent in Training Sons and Daughters foi Life's Work. GIVE MANY REASONS What are the schools like In othei places? , . . . . How does the atmosphere of thf modern schools compare with that oi the schools of the last generation? "People are interested in answer ing these questions," declared Mist Florence Kinney, of the Sundav party who is in charge of the work with the schools, "People want to know If the? can improve their own schools, ana how. And they are interested In th moral conditions of these schools." A composite picture of the morals of the schools of the country as part of the answer can , be secured ony through a personal acquaintance witfc the actual conditions in different places. But it needs more than s casual acquaintance with the young sters, it requires that the childrec give their confidence the person whe wants to know. Studes Children For years, as the Sunday party has been going about the country. Miss Kinney has been seeing the children gaining their confidences, and learning what the conditions in the towns actually are. "Now I'm not talking about Richmond," she told her Interviewer. Tims. ! day mormn& merely about the country as a wnoie. 'Unquestionably thp mnmi ctorn. ard in the schools is lower than it va? 25 years ago. Some people lay it all to the war, and there is truth In the statment. for the same'eondition existed after the French Revolution, but back of the war cause is a far more insistent one. The children of this day are exposed to more temptation" than were the children of a generation ago. Causes Assigned "The automobile has taken the childdren out of the sight of their parent?, has made it easier for them to go places than before, while the movie-, have brought pictures of vice and evil doing before their eyes with a vivid ness and attractiveness heretofore unequaled. "The tendency to dress In styles that appeal to the baser passions in men, has been having marked effert everywhere on the school girl, who has been apeing in fashion, the older members of the family. "The real danger lies in the fact that the girls, are in the formative period of their life, and the impressions. which they gain at that time are liable to stay with them. Are Encouraged "Some of the girls have come to me after the meetings and have said that they knew that such things were wrong, but that their mothers encouraged that style of dress in order to make an appearance, and have even asked that I speak to their mothers about it. "Such a state of affairs could not exist were it just the girls and boys themselves that are at afult.

She must be a spiritual and intellectual leader for her children, and she must be intellectually of interest to her husband. "Some women crave a public career But if they are to seek it. they must never go its way, without knowing the high price that they must pay Tor the privilege. It is a high price, and a heavy one. Cites Example "The best illustration of the effect of different surroundings on girls came to my attention in a town where I met two girls who had been brought ud in fairly well to An famii; j the home conditions were very dif- ' ferent. The one home was cultured, it was almost instinct for the family to be refined, and gentle, and the children growing up in the home were filled with the same spirit. Th children of a daughter of that familyy, are now growing up in the same sweet, wholesome atmosphere that she had at home. "The other home was just as wealthy, but it lacked refinement, and through the whole life of the daughter the fame lack was noticeable The family was morally good, but It lacked the vital spark that had made the other daughter the real mother and home maker. There was not the same instinct for good. Difference was Marked. "The difference was slight but the results were markedly different. .u"?he moaern schools are not doing their part in educating the girls as mothers. In some places it has been almost necessary for the schools to adopt a uniform of middy blouse and kirt, and forbid the wearing of silk stockings, and the use of perfumerv to counteract the effect of dressing In ways that appeal to the pas? ion of men. , ? "Part of that indifference ia dne to laxity in the homes. I remember a woman in Oklahoma who had been gambling in her home at night, but was being careful that the seven year old daughter did not known anything about it. j "It had never occured to her ttoat the little girl would not be seven very long, and that theysoon learn :Wt what their fathers and mothers are doine." i
