It is impossible for those who were
once enlightened and have tasted of
the heavenly gift, if they shall fall
away, to renew them again unto re
pentance; .seeing they crucify to
themselves the Son of God afresh,

One cannot even pretend to keep

:o:
Senator Borah wants to establish a
real world court in which justice is
to be dispensed "unhampered by the

of some other world.
-:o:-
The tariff has been pouring money
into Uncle Sam's pockets at the rate
of over 400 million dollars a year.
Customs receipts in March were over
62 millions. Some figure that the
tariff will collect as high, as 700 mil
lion dollars in 1923. Indirectly, of
course, Americans are paying it, for
without tariff a lot of things would
be cheaper.
:o:
Two Ohio surgeons claim that by
injecting fluid from the adrenal
glands into the heart of a dying man.
and sometimes of a dead man. the
organ can be strengthened and life
brought back, if the cause of the dis
ease can be eradicated promptly.
Jealous lovers whose hearts stop
beating when they see other men
with their girls will be much inter
ested in this.
:o: .
The jury that acquitted Governor
Small of Illinois in his recent trial
for conspiracy and misuse of state
funds is also under investigation and
three more indictments have already
been returned. It is alleged that the
jury was "fixed" in advance. The
sheriff who had charge of the selec
tion has since been made superin
tendent of prisons and some of the
Jurors are said to have also been
handsomely provided for. Even the
politicians have a hard time in go
ing straight in Illinois. This is not
as Smalla matter as it may seem.

POLICY NEEDED
American railroad executives held
a conference some two weeks ago in
attempting to agree upon a policy
that will enable them to better cope
with an Increasing column of traf
fic. A situation has arisen during
the last few months strikingly like
that of the war period which led first
to voluntary efforts of the railroads
to ro-onerate in the movement of
traffic and, after that had failed, to
federal operation.
During the last year the steam
roads have greatly increased their
rolling equipment and deliveries to
be made within the next few months
will in a measure relieve .the strain
under which the majority of them
are now operating. If, however, traf
fic should continue to increase dur
ing the remainder of the year a sit
uation may well be created in which
the roads can neither move the traf
fic nor earn any substantial profit
from operation. With commodity
prices advancing the cost of materi
als and of fuel bought by the rail
roads will also increase but the sug
gestion of a higher charge for trans
portation service at this time with
resistance not only from shipping re
sources but from political sources as
welL
The railroads need to fortify them
selves and prepare for whatever ex
igencies may arise. They need par
ticularly to decide whether in their
judgment anything is to be expected
from the present transportation act,
especially from its consolidation fea
tures. For some months after that act
was passed there was little need for
co-operative effort among the carri
ers that the law contemplates but
with traffic at the present level and
with rolling stock admittedly inade
quate the probability of relief thru
consolidation should be definitely as
certained. The conclusions reached by the
executives are likely to affect pro
foundly the trend of transportation
developments and probably legisla
tion in the immediate future.
-:o:
THE MEAT SUPPLY
How much "meat do you eat? The
average American- ate 150 pounds
last year, including babies, in strik
ing the average. This seems a lot.
And it is. Beef totaled 1 pounds for
each of us.
' Apd yet here comee.J C. Mohler of
the Kansas state board of agriculture
with a warning that extinction of
the beef industry is threatened by
decline in meat consumption. He
says we're eating 26 pounds of beef a
year less than we ate in 1901, apiece.
There's a reason, as usual. You
used to be able to get a steak yes,
a whole meal for a quarter. High
prices become prohibitive a boom
erang.
:p:
Of a thousand married women to
whom that questionnaire was sent.
872 said they were happy. If that
percentage holds up, it's a brighter
world than the pessimists would have
us think.

Plant the potatoes and cover them

If you cover them with straw when

Alvo. Miss Meeker' sermons are sure
the kind we need for Alvo. She Is
not abusive like many evangelists,
but she just tells the blessed sweet
story of love and the power of God to
save. We are expecting a wonderful
outpouring of the holy 6pirit upon
Alvo during these meetings. The au
diences are quite good, but the house
will hold a few more. Friends, we
hope you will embrace this splendid
opportunity of reviving the church
interest while this meeting Is in
progress. Of course, the people are
busy; so la the devil. Remember that
saying of the Master's, "I must be
about my Father's business," and "I
must work while it is day for the
night cometh when no man can
work."

the church at 2:30. Don't miss out
on a single meeting. Just how long
these meetings will last we are not
now able tfcsay, but we do hope that
everybody in Alvo will get in on
these meetings for all the personal
good they can obtain while the evan
