Uncle \Sajj6t Regrets Should Deter All regrets are “vain"* if they do not act as deterrents on future occasions. & Keep your promises and discharge your obligations. You may have a good-natured j neighbor and be unable to determine whether it is laziness or a kind heart. Both, maybe. “Don’t worry” is a good rule to offer others; but, like all advice, they are unable to fot’ow it. Indulgent Dad Son, Father can always tell you something for your own good if he will speak the whole truth to s you. Often he hesitates to hurt your feelings. The man who always speaks the truth is sure to havd other virtues. X B A boost when needed is better | than a pull that isn’t. There are gifted women who. ■ perceiving how much the man who loves them has idealized them, succeed in living up to his ideal. Two happy Are We Overcharged? Even our pleasures cost -more than they used to. Many a fellow’s idea of a good time is to pay a SSO fine for 50 cents’ worth of fun. As soon as a man begins to love his work, then will he also begin to make progress. . Making a collection of Books is at least as justifiable as making a collection of anything else. What ailed the clothing of the ancients more important than a rur in the stocking of use modems? , As Was Planned Mark Twain's old home in the Connecticut hills—destroyed by fire some years ago—was built from the joint designs of his daughter Clara Clemens, and John Howells, son of William Dean Howells, novelist and critic. “They did it,” once explained Mark to a friend, “without any advice or* instructions from me. I had every confidence in their taste and judgrrjent and none in my own. I merely said I wanted three things —a room of my own that would be quiet, a room large enough to play in without jamming the cues into the wall, and a living room forty feet by twenty.” :He did also stipulate that the house should cost only a certain sum. “And did It?” inquired the friend. “Well,” said Mark, “half of it did.”

\brisbane\ THIS WEEK 4 In Ancient Nile Mud England Keeps Ready Let the Dead Sleep Murder Starts Early Paris.—Reclining on her side, her body covered with gold, gold

necklaces on her neck and on the ground nearby, arch aeologists discover the wellpreserved body of an Egyptian princess whose father, the Pharoah Chephren, built the second biggest pyramid; it was his brother, Cheops, who built the largest. Those pyramids were tombs for kings, and search-

l3Kil_s Arthtar BrUkaaa

ers found the princess in one of them. The Nile mud seeping into ; the tomb had helped to preserve j her. That princess, living 5,000 years ■ ago, could tell an interesting story for the movies. She “built herself, I a small pyramid with stones given i to her by her many lovers.” Where do you suppose she is now? In j ' some strange Egyptian heaven, j perhaps, with all those admirers ( around her. England, alarmed by European ' war threats, issues an official I “white paper” explaining w’hy— ! “The relation of our own armed forces to those of other great pow- i ers should be maintained at a figure high enough to enable us to i exercise pur influence and authori- I ty in international affairs.” Unfortunately for all plans, the ai- lane in the hands of a des- j perate nation might upset all national “authority,” just as a pistol ■ in the hands of a desperate man upsets individual and police au- ’ thority. One bullet will stretch individual authority in the dust; 1,000 air- | planes, attacking the heart of a j great city, might cause national j “authority” to end in demoraliza-; tion. England’s new defense increase I will be largely in her air force; | “That wise nation knows that the real “ocean” in future wars will , be the ocean of the air. In a desert of southeastern Utah, ! meh and women, belonging to the cult of “truth seekers,” were gathered around the body of Mrs. Edith Dakhal, who died more than a year ago. You read about it, perhaps. Mrs. Ogden, leader of the "truth seekers,” prayed, over the body, ■ which appeared marvelously preserved. The “truth seekers” believe they will bring the woman back to life, but the pathetic fact | is that it would not in the least matter if they did. The important thing is to im- • prove the condition of 1,800,000.000 I actually living on the earth. For one safely out of it to be brought; back would be unimportant, in these days, and perhaps cruel. America holds the world’s “murder championship” for all kinds of murder, at all ages—quantity, qual- . ity, variety, volume. A New Jersey boy. 16 years old, | was sentenced to death. In Wisconsin, a coroner reports that little David Holl, two months ; old, was killed by two boys four i and three years of age. They each held one hand of the younger one, and dropped it on the floor. It cried and would not stop. Then, one of the small boys explained, “We pounded him.” These youngest “killers” puzzle the law. You can’t "try” a four-year-old child. I. ' * Railroads tell the interstate com- ’ merce commission they would like fares reduced to two and a half cents a mile, instead of two cents. The railroads should have all possible consideration, for they have built up this country, but at two and a half cents a mile they will , not compete successfully with automobiles carrying passengers for one-quarter of a cent a mile. New York proposes to fingerprint everybody, new babies included. • The baby of the future will be i busy, with finger-printing, tonsil and appendix removal, vaccination for smallpox and a half dozen other diseases. The new treaty with France, reducing the duty on French wines and liquors by 50 per cent, inter- , ests California and other wine growing states. It should persuade them to stabilize the production of wines, establish official guarantees of purity, freedom from adulterations, mixtures, and especially “fortifying” with alcohol. In Europe, notably in France, adulteration of wines is an offense against the law. With us, it is a business. For advertising reasons, a group of men made a long distance hike on a diet of broken grain to prove the superiority of that diet. They were surprised when 53 hikers showed a total loss of 211 pounds in weight, while one, 66 years old, showed a gain of three pounds. • Klac Ftaataraa Syndicate. las. WNU Scrvlc®.

News Review of Current Events the World Over Drouth Damage Estimated at $300,000,000 —Steel Fight Brings Union Labor Crisis—Landon Reconvenes Kansas Legislature. By EDWARD W. PICKARD © Western Newspaper Union.

TIT - HILE relentless heat drove ’ V the nation’s farm losses from drouth toward the $300,000,000 mark and sent grain prices soaring, long needed rains in scattered regions of the drouth belt brought temporary relief. In sections of Illinois, Indiana, lowa, and Ohio, which faced the prospect of the disaster already confronting the Northwest, the rains were a Godsend to sun-parched corn fields, pastures, and crops of spring wheat. Rains in the Northwest revived portions of North and South Dakota, Montana and Nebraska. But a heat wave lasting nearly a week had brought temperatures ranging from 90 to 114 in the Great Plains territory. Twenty-three states, eight of them in the South, were listed as suffering in some degree from the drouth. Ten of them—North and South Dakota, Montana, Wyoming, Minnesota, Missouri, Tennessee, Oklahoma, Virginia and South Carolina—were already in a critical stage. Five others — Kentucky, Georgia, Alabama, North Carolina and West Virginia—were borderline cases. Eight others where the full severity of the drouth had not yet Veen felt were: Nebraska, Wisconsin. lowa, Michigan. Illinois, Kansas, Indiana and Ohio. The sweltering heat and drouth spread into Canada. The prairie provinces of Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta—Canada’s bread basket—had begun to suffer like their neighbors in the United States. Except for scattered local showers, there had been no rain from Ontario westward to the Canadian Rockies since June 16. With the full extent of the damage in the “dust bowl” area of the Northwest not yet known, the federal government made plans to deal with a long-range disaster. President Roosevelt, taking personal command pf the relief program in Washington, announced that he would make a personal tour of the drouth-stricken areas within the next few weeks. The President announced that the federal government had prepared a comprehensive plan whereby 170,000 out of 204,000 farm families impoverished by the drouth in the Northwest would be given immediate cash assistance. He declared that he will make his trip after the relief program has had an opportunity to get under way, to see for himself exactly how much damage was caused by the drouth and whether financially-ruined families are receiving the proper assistance. He said that 50,000 farmers were being given jobs immediately on WPA projects at an average wage of sls per week, carrying out useful work—digging wells, constructing earth dams to hold any rains which may fall in the near future and building farm-to-market roads. A livestock program is under way i which would call for the movement of cattle from the arid sections as a private enterprise, to protect the foundation herds of the livestock growers. ■ROMANCE outmaneuvered diplomacy in the life of Mrs. Ruth Bryan Owen, American minister to Denmark and, former

member of congress. The engagement of the daughter of William Jennings Bryan to Captain Boerge Rohde, an officer of the Danish army, was announced in Denmark by the latter’s mother. Captain Rohde is a member of King Christian’s personal bodyguard.

a Ruth Bryan Owen

Captain Rohde arrived in America on the liner Drottningholm a day or two after his fiancee had reached the country. They were married at an estate on Long Island. In political circles the opinion was expressed that Mrs. Owen will probably resign her diplomatic post in a short time. While there are no formal regulations which compel an American woman minister to resign when she weds, it has been customary for women in minor positions in the American foreign service to retire when they marry. GOVERNOR Alf M. Landon returned to Topeka. Kas., after a vacation in the Colorado mountains, for the reconvening of the state legislature and to prepare for the acceptance speech he will deliver at the Republican notification ceremonies July 23. The Republican presidential nominee appeared before a joint session of the legislature and urged passage of amendments to the state constitution to provide adequate social security measures. Governor Landon declared that care of the needy aged and others suffering misfortunes is a “public obligation.” Following his address, the Kansas senate adopted a constitutional amendment by a vote of 35 to 1, empowering the legislature to enact a uniform system of direct aid for needy aged persons, indigent infirm persons and others suffering misfortunes which give them a claim on society for aid. It likewise passed by a unanimous vote another proposed constitutional amendment authorizing the state to levy taxes on emplbyers and employees for systems of old age pen-

sions and unemployment insurance to which the beneficiary must contribute. Meanwhile, Governor Landon opened a series of major conferences with farm leaders for the purpose of* drafting a farm relief program for inclusion in his acceptance speech. He conferred with former Governor Frank O. Lowden of Illinois, and former Senator Otis F. Glenn, Senator Arthur Capper of Kansas, Representative Clifford Hope of Kansas and R. K. Laubengayer, a Kansas farm publisher. A S THE long-awaited campaign to unionize the nation’s steel industry was under way, one of the most serious crises in the history of

the American labor movement arose when strife broke out between William Green, president of the American Federation of Labor and John L. Lewis, president of the United Mine Workers of America and head of the I Committee for In- : dustrial Organization, who has pro- • •

William Green

' moted the unionization drive m the steel industry. Meeting in Washington, the executive council of the American Federation of Labor considered the I matter of suspending eight national and international unions on the ground that these eight unions have begun the formation of a rival, or I duel labor federation. John L. Lewis announced that he would not respond to a summons of the executive council to answer charges that he had violated the federation’s policy by trying to organize 500,000 steel workers into one big industrial union instead of into several unions divided by , ' crafts. Should the rijt widen and a break occur, observers believe it would split the organized labor movement and affect its prestige and power at a critical time. Denouncing the action of the Lewis group, President Green de- , dared: •. “It is sincerely to be regretted i that the committee for industrial | organization thwarted the purpose i I of the American Federation of Labor to inaugurate an organizing campaign in the steel industry. “A very serious if not a fatal mistake was made when it flouted the decision of the last convention of the American Federation of Labor . . . and prevented the execu- ' tive council from carrying out the j convention’s instructions ‘to inaiigj urate, manage, promote and con- I duct an organizing campaign I among the iron and steel workers at the earliest possible date.’ ” Back of the collision over the attempted unionization of the steel industry are two contending schools of thought over the future of organized labor in America. One is that sponsored by Mr. Green which rose to power on a policy of trained craftsmen, trained by crafts The other is championed by John L. . Lewis *who visions a powerful labor • machine organized regardless of ‘ crafts, which includes the semiskilled and unskilled workers as well as the trained craftsmen. The success of either Green or Lewis, it is believed, will herald a turning point in the history of American labor. DEFYING the threats of Communist members of the chamber of deputies, the French government decided to use armed force “with care” to oust French strikers who refusi to evacuate their places of business. The announcement of this new . policy was made by Minister of the Interior Roger Salengro. following the outbreak of fresh “folded arm” strikes in Paris and the provinces. It was estimated that 80,000 workers were still on strike in various industries throughout France. In the meantime the government’s project to nationalize France’s arms industry was approved by the army committee of the chamber of deputies. William E. Borah, about whose future political plans considerable doubt existed, formally announced that he

would be a candidate for re-election to the senate. Several daj£ before making his announcement .the Idaho statesman bad pledged allegiance to the Republican ticket and platform, thus removing the expressed doubts of many political leaders throughout the

country regarding his stand in the presidential campaign. Previously Senator Borah had commented favorably on both the Republican and Democratic platforms, praising both for the stand they had taken on the question of monopolies. The seventy-one-year-old senator in clarifying his position on the Republican platform said: “I have no intention of bolting the ticket. “I am supporting the platform an I have been supporting the platform from the beginning.”

Lesson for July 19 SOCIAL SERVICE IN THE EARLY CHURCH LESSON TEXT — Act* 4:32-3S; II Corinthians 8:1-3. GOLDEN TEXT—He said: -It tta more bles.-ed to sive than to receive.”—Acta 20:35. PRIMARY TOPIC—How Jeans 1 Friends Shared. JUNIOR TOPIC—When Christiana See Others In Need. . INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPlC—Christians Sharing With Others. YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPlC—Christian* and Social Service. Social service In the early Church was a by-product of the gospel and not , the gospel Itself. Those who are saved I by the gospel will show their concern j for their fellows, especially those who are fellow members of the body of Christ. I. Characteristics of the Primitive Church (Acts 4:31-35). 1. It was a praying church (▼. 31). The early Christians for every want and need betook themselves to God in prayer. Their faith caused them to go to the living God, believing ‘that their i needs would be supplied. 2. The Spirit-filled church (v. 31). When they prayed, the place was shaken wherein they were gathered together and they were all filled with the | Holy Spirit. A Spirit-filled Church is 1 always a praying Church. 3. It was a church which had great boldness in preaching the Word of God (v. 31). The ministers of the Spiritfilled church will not offer any apology for the Bible, but will fearlessly preach It. 4. It was a united church (v. 32). | They were all of one heart and one souL 5. It was a generous church (v. 32). j They held nothing back from those who had need. The needs were supplied from a common fund. This was not Communism any more than when the church \today helps from a common fund those who have need. 6. The ministers had a powerful testimony (v. 33). A Church possessing the aforementioned traits will always : be blessed with such ministers. 7. It was a church whose members possessed unblemished character (v. 33). Great grace was upon them all. 11. Generous Act of Barnabas (Acts I 4:36, 37). I He sold a piece of land and turned over all the proceeds to be used for : these in need. It Is not said that Bar- ! nabas sold all the land he had. His act, therefore, cannot In any real sense be used as a precedent for a comma- ' nlty of goods in the church111. Stephen the Deacon (Acts6:l-8). As soon as the church had relief from external troubles, difficulties arose within. Up to this time it would seem that the problems of the church were In the hands of the apostles. A congregational meeting was called, the case placed before the church, and the church instructed to select sevi en men of good reputation and Spiritfilled, to administer the temporalities, giving the apostles time for prayer and the ministry of God’s Word. Among the seven deacons thus chosen, Stephen had first place. While engaged In his duties as a deacon, be sprang into the light as an eloquent and powerful preacher. Even when ministering to the needy, Stephen mpde his supreme work that of preaching the gospel. IV. The Good Deeds of Dorcas (Acta 9:36-13). Dorcas was a practical Christian woman. She was full of good works and almsdeeds which she did, not what she talked of doing. Her death was a real loss. If all professing Christian women would use their needles as Dorcas did, there would be more real testimony for Christ. V. Christian Stewardship (11 Cor. 8:1-9). L Examples of true Christian benevolence (vv. 1-5). The liberality of these Macedonian churches exhibits practically every principle and motive entering into Christian giving. a. The source of true giving (v. 1). Is said to be the grace of God. b. They gave from the depths of their poverty (v. 2). c. Their willingness surpassed their ability (v. 3). d. They were Insistent on being allowed the privilege of giving (v. 4). e. They first gave themselves to the Lord (v. 5). 2. Emulation of Macedonian benevolence urged (vv. 6-15). a. Not as a command (v. 8). Acceptable giving must be spontaneous. b. As proof of the sincerity of love (v. 8). Sincere love is benevolent action toward the object loved. c. As the completion and harmony ot Christian character (v.,7). Liberality is needed for the harmony of the Christian’s life. d. The self-sacrificing example of Christ (v. 9). The supreme example of love is Christ’s sacrifice. e. Tha true principle upon which gifts are acceptable to God (w. 10-12). The motive of the giver determines the value of the giftL Every Christian should give something (vv. 13-15). The ability of the giver should govern his life of giving. Philosophy of Bacon “While a little philosophy leads away from religion, much philosophy leads back to it" The man who said this was not an outsider, but a philosopher <* the philosophers—Francis Bacon—the one, Indeed, on whose inductive philosophy all the sdenca of our modern world is built Love of Home The love of borne; and affection for the nation to which we belong, to its manners and customs; in its highest sense love to the political constitution of the nation to which we be,ol*
