Men may
K. horn with equal and unalienable rights, but they do not have equality of capacity or of opportunity. If the world's wealth should be divided equally among all men, as some 9i-eni to desire, before the nierht fell some would bo - richer, others would be poorer, all due to differences of ability in handling money. Think of tho wide differencesbetween men in intellectual capacity. The twin of a genius may bo a dunce. There are the differences made by fortune and chance. A Rritish otllcer, of whom I heard, was ordered from service In India to the western frönt, and after a journey of several weeks from India to his new post was shot down in the first CO minutes. Other men went through years of the thickest lighting of the war without a scratch. So is life a great battle which spares some, while it breaks and scars others. and their lives are forever changed in oportunlty by the turn of one day's action. Fortune and misfortune thus make for inequalities. How olvo them? How offset them? Paganism and science say, sacrifica the weak to the strong. Christianity says, "Iet the strong build of their strength into the lives of the weak that all may be strong together." The idea of the world may be the survival of the fittest, the motive of Christianity is the revival of the unfit through the power of friendly help and spiritual inbuildlng. Teaches Cooperation.

Adopting cooperation as its strategy' of war, any organization, such as a club, a lodge or a church, mry become a veritable knight -errant, interesting itself in various causes which aim for tho social good. It is not sufficient for members as individuals to have a love for little children. The cause of the child must be taken up in a cooperative way. The knightly institution becomes Interested in the health of the child, his recreation, his mental and moral training It is not enough for scattering individuals to live according to the principles of health; they must band themselves togethe In an organization which champions the public health against all those who through Ignorance, carelessness and Indifference tend to destroy it.

Percy Roeevear, son of Mr. and Mrs. Hector Rosevear, 207 St. Joseph av., is suffering from a compound fracture of the bone in tho left wrist as a result of falling from the veranda of hi home. John H. Forler has sold his store building on Main St., formerly occupied by the Forler Grocery Co., to the Albers Tacking Co., who now occupy tho building. Miss Kate Hansom, X. Fifth st., was painfully injured In Kalamazoo when the taxi In which she was riding upset, hurling both the driver and Miss Ransom to the street. Miss Ransom has been removed to her home In Niles. No serious complications are expected. Inspection of peach buds in hla big orchard near Dailey haa led Ralph Hain to believe the recent freeze did not materially damage them. Only ono other contingency may ariye to damage the crop, says Mr. Hain, and that is the fact that possibly the vitality of the buds may bo affected and fall off as they legin to take on growth. They look all right now, however. Full dental equipment, consisting of chair, cabinet, wall bracket, engine, table, and cuspidor with running waCer, has been secured for the school dental clinic by the school committee of the Woman's Progressive league.

Hunter's ice cream has again been placed In the hands of local dealers for sale. The drug and food department at Lansinff has informed the owners that thus far the analysis of Hunter ice cream has revealed nothing unfavorable, and further stated that if the company would agree to pasteurize all materials used in making its product, it could again be placed on the market. It was at first believed that an epidemic of ptomaine po!' sonlng prevalent in Niles had beef caused by the consumption of Hunter ice cream.

While labor has been participating in the readjustment process, the board continued, the participation has been uneven as between different groups of labor. "Wage readjustment," it said, "has been greater among unskilled workers and those not possessed of a .strong labor trade organization and especially in those sections of the country whose industries have felt in a peculalrly. high regree the effects of readjustment." The agricultural situation during the month was characterized as generally favorable, although the fruit growing sections suffered from cold waves.

Popular Fun Maker to Make Appearance Wednesday and Thursday. An unusually strong dramatic story is contained In "The White Rider," which has its permler showing today and tomorrow at the Auditorium, in which Joe Meers and Eileen Sedgwick are co-starred, the scenes being laid in and around a western mining town, and the story has to do with a gang of unscrupulous men, who by trick, and deceit, and force attempt to wrest a rich mining claim from an old prospector and his young daughter. When it appears that nothing can stop the deperados from their evil act. The White Rider appears. This mysterious character, who, for some1 reason, has been the subject for speculation amongst the miners aa to hL? identity, and only at the climax of the picture is his real self exposed. As a whole the picture is said to possess an element of mystery that will amuse and satisfy the most critical, and has been termed the best western picture of the' season. "Up in the Air" is a funny Century comedy and Town Topics complete the bill. Wednesday and Thursday, the screen's greatest fun-maker. Harold Lloyd, Is seen in his newest hundred-thousand dollar comedy special. "Number ) Pleat-e", a riot of laughter from the first flash of the film to the final flicker. Harold Lloyd has never been known to make a poor picture, and "Number PIea?e" has been the best one to date. Mildred Davis is as pretty and winsome as ever and lends much to the picture's greatness. In addition to the comedy special. Matt Moore and an all star cast will be seen in Arthur Roch-; Sornmer'e Drury Lane spectacle, entitled "The Sport of Kings", a vivid drama of love and adventure, on land and
j sea. with one of the most realLutlc
horso race scenes ever staged for a motion picture.
