"In passing upon applications from the Nebraska Electric Power Comp any and the Nebraska State Railwey Comission announced a change of view as regards its duty in consider ing such issues," savs the Electrical World. "In the past, the commission said it had approved applications where no evidence of fraud was manifest without itself weighing the question of whether or not the price paid for ed the properties on which the issue was to be based was extravagant. In other words, the commission demand ed that those taking the risk of fut ure should back their judgment with bulk of revenue in the form of taxes an 1 semi-monthly payroll into our com munity.

There was a riot there. : jThe people were wild with frenzy.' They were all yelling their heads off, for "Diana of the Ephesians." That day had gone, Paul had made a visit (of six months in Macedonia. He had ithen started for Jerusalem to be pres-; lent at the certain feast of the Jews. He stopped at Ephesus on his way and j bidding farewell to his friends, to J those of the church which had been j established through his work and ; were standing as a monument to his! sacrifice and suffering. He said to t the church and its members, "lou will not see my face any more." He felt that this trip to Jerusalem, the fifth one. was to be the last one, for he had seen a vision and in it he had revealed to him that there was work for him at Rome. Before this it must needs be that he fulfill a vow made j g and purify himself at the temple at j K Jerusalem. As we study the coming jH lessons, we will learn how he went to Jerusalem and then to Rome a nrisoner. and durinjr his first two jeing several 'years there he wrote this letter to operating be- tne cnurcn at ipnesus. In the fifth chapter of the letter, he has called attention to the sins and waywardness of the people, which he charges the members to refrain from doing. The letter is general in a sei'se and is, as is thought by some, intended to be directed to the several churches in Asia Minor spoken of in Revelation, they being Ephesus. Sar dis. Philadelphia. Smyrna, Leadocia, Pergamus and Thyateria, still it has come to us as only to the church at Ephesus. Paul charged them as the church was subject to Christ and the relationships were not onerous, but such as all could well learn and en joy. He gives some excellent rules and advice for living in the home. He charges the women to submit themselves to their own husbands as unto the Lord. For the husband is the head of the household as Christ is the head of the church. He then adresses the husbands and says, "Hus bands, love your wives, even as also Christ loved the church and gave himself for it. that He might sanctify it and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word, that he might present it to himself, a glorious c hurch not having spot or wrinkle or any such thine; but that it should be holy and without blemish." So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his wife, loveth himself, for they are of one bone and one flesh. For this cause shall a man leave his father and his mother and shall be joined unto his wife, and they shall be one flesh. Also the wife see that she reverence her husband. Children obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right. Honor thy father and thy mother, which is the first command ment with promise that it may be well with thee and that thou may- est live long upon tne eartn. ahu now fathers, provoke not your child ren to wrath, but bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord. To you who labor be faithful in that which you do. You are entitled to your wages and hire, also you should give good service. When you come to the beginning of the day's work come prepared to deliver the goods, remembering that 3'ou owe a faithful and true day's work to your self as well as to your employer. To you. employers of labor, remember you have contracted for service, good and true, just as you would have bought a ton of coal or a load of corn, and that the one on the other side is entitled to your help and co-operation. Then comes Paul saying, "Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of his might." To make this life perfect, to make it worth while, to make it enjoyable to you and your fellow man, the Lord has entered into a co-partnership with man, in which the Lord has furnished a pleasant land, one fertile, that will produce good crops, storing in the hills metal for his use, stone for his habitation and coal for his warmth. The gentle sunshine, the balmy winds, the gentle rain all go to make up life's pleasant surround ings and even when man has sinned and been disobedient He has provided a way whereby man may return, obey and be forgiven and restored to good fellowship with the Son and Father and be guided by the Holy Spirit in to all truth. What is our portion in this partnership? Of us is expected obedience to the commands of the Father, that we work in co-operation with the Son in carrying the mes sage of love and peace to a world lost by wandering from the fold.

Xo such popularization of higher education has ever been witnessed in the world before, he added. Application of scientific study to Chicago high schools ought ulti mately to take them out of politics, and this should end the opposition which has been fostered against the platoon system and junior high school, the educator declared. It should help make Chicago "the so cial and intellectual leader of the territory of which she is now the economic center." Professor Judd continued that "it will be a sad day for Chicago if op ponents of the enriched curriculum in elementary schools blockade a progressive administration by insist ing that pupils sit all day in school seats in a closed room, and forgo ad vantages which come from the broad er education provided by the labora tory, shop, library, and gymnasium. The platoon school is not a negative thing; it is one of the most positive progressive inventions of modern science." The platoon school he described as a public utility, opening to children "new doors of experience which were not open to children of a generation as:o. who sat all day in the same seats." The junior high school was char acterized as "youths' opportunity" by Professor Judd, who was introduced and hold leadership in economic ar fairs, so we can and must also tak the guidance of social movements."
