Solomon had a great inheritance, a
united kingdom, untold riches, gath
ered by his father the richest man
of his da5 but was not spoiled by
them, as seen by his deep humility
ami piety, illustrated by the dream in
which the Lcrd spoke to him and
granted his request for "wisdom and
an understanding heart." (I Kings
3:G-9). Solomon had inherited the
deep piety cf his father also. The
beginning of his reign was very
promising, we wish to be able to
chronicle such a fine end; but, alas,
with all his wisdom, and Jehovah's
favor upon him, his life ended most
mircrably.. It seems almost incred
ible that a man standing so high, as
we seo him at the dedication of the
temple, should fall so low a3 to build
temples to idols, in later life. It is
never safe to praise a man before his
li'o is ended the average man.
ThC'noblcrt work of Solomon is

ful experience, that!
That the work of Solomon was
pleasing to God is proven by the fact.
when the priests came out of the holy
place, that "the cloud filled the
house," the devine presence was there
the ministry had to be delayed for
Vthe glory , of Jehovah . filled the
Bouse V5f 'TenoVaTir ' Tlie"br7g'nT sh'ech-

the cloud and fire which was seen at
Sinai (Ex. 14:15-13) and had follow
ed the consecration cf the tabernacle
(Ex. 40:3 4, 35) now similarly de
scended on the temple, as a sign of its
acceptance with God. In the visions
of Ezekiel, the same glory is seen,
filling the house of the Lord (Ezek
10:4).
New follows one of the greatest
prayers in the Bible. "Prayer is not
request only, it is fellowship, com
municn, identification with God; it Is
the soul pouring itself out in all the
tender compulsions of love, asking
God for blessings, praying God for
mercies, committing itself to God in
view of all the mystery and peril of
the future." (Joseph Parker). Doing
must follow praying. Our religion is
an empty sham if it does not empty
the purse for the promotion of the
Liora s worn. hoiomon never came
nearer to God than in this dedicatory
prayer (I Kings 8:23-61). Every true
Christian must have such "high days"
in his life, such mountain-top experi
ences, like Saul on the Damascus
road. But he must also go with Paul
to the end of the road that he can
say: "I have finished my course, I
have kept the faith." (II Tim. 4:7).
it is a raa ending we have to
chronicle of Solomon's life. His for
eign wives turned his heart from
God; he did not win them over to
his faith. We repeat the warning
given before, "not to be yoked with
unbelievers." (II Cor. 6:14). The
risk is too great. Solomon learned it
too late. A saying is: "When you
run in double harness, take a good
lock at the ether horse." The out
come may be two unbelievers, instead
of two Christians.
The clouds of - devine displeasure
are gathering around the closing
years of.tbe great King and the storm
was ready to break upon the head of
his son. The historian hurries over
his declining years. After a reign
of forty years, he died In Jerusalem,
leaving to hi3 son a realm ripe for a
revolt, because of heavy taxation to
support the king's selfish splendor.
The kings of Israel so ' far each
reigned forty years and died at the
age of seventy years. Had Solomon
followed his own teaching, he would
not have lost his soul!
"Let us hear the conclusion of the
whole matter: Fear God and keep his
cemmandments, for this is the whole
duty cf man. For God shall bring
every work" into judgment, with every
stcrqt thing, whether, it be good, or
whether it be evil." (Eccl. 12:13, 14)
His own words!
i
EXPEDITING JUSTICE
IN CHICAGO COURTS
A measure of the extent to which
Chicago has been aroused to fight
crime is found in a petition filed in
behalf of two alleged murderers about
to be brought to trial. The petition,
drawn by their counsel, sets forth
that all the judges in the circuit, su
perior criminal courts are prejudiced
against murder defendants since a
policeman was murdered before the
eyes of a judge in his own courtroom,
also that the entire community has
become so inflamed that a fair trial
in Chicago is impossible. Meanwhile,
the grand jury ha3 calleed upon the
Judges "who are away to cut short
their vacations and return to the
bench so that justice may be exped
ited. There is more than the petition
brought on behalf of the two accused
gangsters to indicate that the Chicago
underworld begins to be conscious
of having too wantonly defied law
and order. It was the repeated mor
der of policemen which seemed final
ly to stir public indignation to a
white heat. What is described in the
Chicago press as "the first death sen
tence in the campaign against crime
launched four weeks ago" was re
cently pronounced upon the murderer
of a policeman, the jury having re
ported its verdict exactly six hours
and 45 minutes after the selection or
the jury was begun.
It is, of course, possible that in
an atmosphere of public excitement
justime may be subordinated to ven
geance. But in the 'case which' was
briefly concluded the judge in pro
nouncing sentence declared that
never In a ' long experience had he
listened to' evidence that was more
complete or conclusive. Verdicts
quickly : ;: reached and sentences
prompt pronounced are a contrast to
the dilatory proceedings for which
our American , criminal courts have
too often been celebrated. Spring

AE0UT GULLIBILITY
AND GLASS HOUSES,
Inconceivable as it may seem, the
old myth about an estate left by Sir
Francis Drake and waiting in Eng
land now to make everybody rich who
will buy a share in recovering it,
has been revived Jn Wisconsin aid
other states of the middle west.
Whjvthat one. .wag sd to. draw
suiffiT out of""gullible" people 4uyears
ago." Since" that time both the Am
erican and British governments have
tried to make clear that no such es
tate exists, that there is no money
to pay dividends to tho3e who con
tribute to its "recovery" in short,
that anybody who listens to such talk
is making a bid to be swindled.
But the story has taken on a new
dress. Once it was merely clothed in
the romance of piiacy, or near-pir
acy. Now it is hooked right up with
the depression. All this trouble we
have gone through has been caused
by the tying-up of the world's gold
in this - fabulous estate. Free this
hoard and there will be plenty ot
money once more. Those who con
tribute to release this treasurer will
not only benefit themselves but will
be serving a public end.
And the story goes over. The child
ish trust placed in it shakes one's
faith in the ability of people evertof the controversy over President
to reason cut for themselves the un
derlying falsity of such a claim. But
we would not level at anyone the
shaft of sarcasm. No, indeed, there
are too many .parallel things to re
member. In the winter of 1924 it seemed
that everybody who had loose money'
there was plenty of it in those
days was buying Florida land on I
the supposition that great cities could
be erected down there out of noth
ing, and that the purchasers would
all be made rich from the increase
Were they any lcs3 gullible than
those who finance a "Sir Francis
Drake estate?"
Or take 1928. The loose change,
and much that was not loose, was go
ing into stocks and bonds that had
been manipulated and re-manipulat
ed to many times the property value
unaeriying them, or the earning
power that they could command. If a
stock could earn only a fair sum for
an Investor on a basis of two hun
dred dollars, nobody was justified in
paying tlx hundred dollars for it
The extra four hundred dollars was
just "Sir Francis Drake estate." Yet
the wisest of the supposedly finan
cially wise laid down their money
and bought Just that way. And
our wiseacres went around prating
about "the new era."
Yes, there is too much gullibility.
But it is not centered in any one clas3

but we have never known one to be

THE BUYING DRIVE
General Johnson, the "big shot" of
national recovery efforts, said in an
address before a Chicago audience,
that "a federally directed national
campaign would start about Sept. 20
to influence citizans to buy freely." !
Sept. 20 Is too late. Two weeks
makes an enormous lot of difference
at a crucial time like this. If the
general i3 going to save the nation,
economically, he should have started
his campaign long ago, if a campaign
is the solution to the problem.
A number of Industries and busi
ness enterprises have been under a
code of one sort or anotrer for six
weeks. For a month and a half they
have been paying increased wages,
have been paying a larger staff of em
ployes. For six weeks they have been
bearing a much heavier burden of
overhead expenses, after months up
on months of depression during which
they lost money -steadily. Naturally
the limit cannot be far away.
This fact has been recognized by
the administration. The administra
tion has been attempting to make
funds available to aid business house3
which are unable to carry on with
the increased burden imposed by the
recovery administration. The govern
ment is going to lielp some of these
businesses until buying increases and
the flow of business is large enough
to make the business self supporting.
The need, of course, is vastly in
creased buying. .This was the need
before the recovery program was
launched. It is more urgent now. In
creased buying should follow the in
creased payrolls in the businesses
that came under codes early. But the
reaction has not been sufficiently pro
nounced to be f elf If a buying cam
paign will help, it should be launched
at once. Another:-two weeks or more
means another two weeks of losses
and the nearer approach of other
complications, 'i&l -
Buying drives arc unsatisfactory
hi Uiat they are always followed by
a relapse... If, howtver, a buying .drive
will start the wheels turning, we can
stand the, relapse. In any event de-

serious mistake was the delay in get
ting all industries under codes. Other
delays cannot be tolerated. State

; SO GREY GOT BACK AT WILSON
The-, death of Viscount Grey of
Failod6'n,:-at Ipionie In" AT north
of England, recalls the brief, and
strangely unsatisfactory, episode of
his visit to the United States as Brit
ish . ambassador, shortly after the
World War.' Lord Grey came to this
country, rather -unwillingly, in the
latter part of 1919, to represent his
government temporarily until a suc
cessor could be found for Lord Read
ing, who had resigned to become lord
chief justice of -"England. The post
at-Washington did not involve any
particular honor-for the new ambas
sador. For many years he had been
foreign secretary (secretary of state)
of Great . Britain, in charge of the
whole diplomatic service, and had re
tired to a well-earned rest in 1916,
with his eyesight badly impaired.
Diplomatic conditions between the
United States and Great Britain,
however, were in a somewhat deli
cate condition just then, as a result
Wilson's attempt to force this coun
try into the League of Nations, and
it was felt that" Lord Grey's expr
lence and tact were needed. Now, al
though the President must have sig
nified that Lord Grey's presence as
ambassador was acceptable to him,
the former foreign minister wsa never
permitted to present his credentials,
The excuse given' was that the Presi-
dent was too ill to see him, but after
waiting several months to be receiv
ed. Lord Grey returned home clearly
under the impression that he had
been insulted.
Whatsver was the reason for Vis
count Grey's treatment, he was soon
to get his revenge. Shortly after his
return to England, the retiring am
bassador write a letter to the London
Times, in which he explained for the
benefit of the British public why the
United States was insisting upon cer
tain regervntinno before it would
agree to permit this country to join
the League. He argued that the sen
ate's position was reasonable and
that Great Britain, for one, should
accpt the conditions involved. Prcsi
dent Wilson, to 'whom the reserva
tions were heresy, was reported to
have been furious over Lord Grey s
letter and to have considered com
plaining to the British governmant.
But the letter had a good effect in
England and Lord Grey had the sat
isfaction Of l- iner that he had
made some contribution to Anglo-American
relations, in spite of the Pres
ident. Kansas City Star.
