How little we know each other, after all. So much of the actual work of the world has becomo mechanical. The problems of produc tion have been solved. The needt of industry and business are met faithfully, and it it not treason to our civilization to seek other meant of personal sat isfaction than in work nlone. In most cases those with outside Interests in their leisure time are all tho keener at their task by reason of their whole some hobbles or diversions. Yet life is quite like a masquerrde and when tho masks are finally taken off there are innumerable surprises. pines. Just to turn ona party out of offlct and put another in will not bring to pass all that it not enough to alter all conditions or to tecura universal content. It it not possible to create I millenlum by merely dropping a handful of ballots In a box, nor doet clothing tha citizen with tha right to vote in. tura him unalloyed happiness. Mundane things change tlowly, and human habits ara difficult to deal with. If benefits ara to coma from the altered views of tha people, work must bt dont Just tha tame. Lawa may aid but will not produce any change In our wayt "of doing things. Yet the manifestation of tha slow processes of na ture frequently take on tha form of cataclysmic upheaval; tha earthquake, prepared for months or years In advance, mora broadly and permanently alters tha face of nature, than does the tornado, seemingly mort furious, yet of twifter birth and shorter duration. Therefore, the signs may be accepted at evinc ing a movement forward for all the people. It it not the threthhold of the new era, but it Is tha new era, hat in turn will be succeeded by another. Not all have found It possible to adjust themselves, nor do all ever rnaka such adjustment, but nature it nexorable, and humanity Is equally ruthless when moving from point to point. Tha millenlum Is not at hand, but tha world It going forward. A CONDENSED CREED. One of the good friends of Tha Omaha Bee writes us from out in the state, setting forth what Is called "A Little Creed." Only a glance is needed to show that it is a very comprehensive creed, little, perhaps, as compared to some of the more elaborate that have been promulgated, but big enough to en compass all mankind. It has in it the germ of a happy, useful life; it contains inspiration to work and to sacrifice; it holds hope for both here artd hereafter, and it does not breathe a whisr" of anything that is in the least sense unworthy. Such a creed layt no bond on its holder, save those of love and reuson and simple faith; the child trusts its parent after tho fashion the follower of this creed trusts God. Creeds ara utuully dangerout things, for they demand much and offer little. Narrowness and ex clusiveness make up the works of man as exhibited In tha formulas expressed for guidance through life to the end that Is coming to alt. This danger is present because of the seeming impossibility of ex cluding the element of self from creed. Yet eai'h of u should have a creed, an expression cf certain things of which faith is the substance; a code ef rule made for our own government, and pot for the measurement of the conduct of others. This is contained in the offering sent us by this paader, and It deserves to g with the praytr sobbed out by the contrite heart so long ago: "Tru.-h nta M U another's T. hula lh fjtiU I ' fnt nmrcv t lo itthrra ahi.w, Tha) mrrcy show lo m " THE CHANOINQ WOKID.

Pealing with industrial, commercial, political, financial, or similar problems, arrays of figures taka on a certain majesty that overawes tha tlmple minded man. When It comet to charity in its true sense, statistics lost their value. Certain con clusions may ba reached from tha study and com parison of certain factors, but the main problem is untouched. You ran no more sum up human misery in an orderly array of digits than you can express it in printed words. And tha American Red Cross devotes its efforts to tht amelioration of misery in the "world. Its effort do not avert calamity, but they do mitigate the ef fects of any unfortunate visitation, and theso ef forts reach to all accessible parts of tha world. An impulse leads the American as naturally as tha homing instinct directs the pigeon, unerringly to the place where help Is needed, and there it is be stowed, generously, effectively, frequently lavishly, and untiringly. It is not impious to refer to this as the work of God, for It Is.the distribution of God's bounty to the destitute, the afflicted, the helpless among God's creaturet. What doet it mean, then, to soy that to many milliont of dollart havo been expended, so many tons of food and clothing distributed, so much of medical sunnlies and assistance provided, to the help of to many men, women and thildrcn? What tubscriberi to the Red Cross chiefly want to know is whether the money they give is going for the ob ject to which it is subscribed. This assurance is provided in the personal character of the officers and directors of tho work, on whose Judgment the success of the undertaking depends. All of which is preliminary to the announcement that the drive in Omaha for membership and funds begins on Monday morning. Only $25,000 is asked for the local budget; this means but 25,000 individual memberships of $1 each, fewer than one in eight of the city's population. Do not hold back because of ttot, for oversubscription will, not do any harm. The "Greatest Mother in the World" should not be required to ask twice in Omaha. COMMUNITY CHURCHES. There are two or three community churches in Nebraska, and a few in Iowa. There are many in stances also of overlapping and waste of effort and money due to the Attempt to maintain two or more churches in towns that could be served by one. It Is not long since that a Congregational church conference held in Norfolk took cognizance of the condition and urged the consolidation of evangelical sects in community churches. There are already a number of federated bodies, within the churches. Members of one sect feel little hesitation in chang ing their affiliations to another if the need or in clination strikes them. There is a. drift also of clergymen from one sect to another. Many things seem to favor a more concrete union. Among the examples of interchurch comity and federation may be pointed out such institutions as the Y. M. C. A., Y. W. C. A., the Student Volunteer movement, Christian Endeavor, Sunday School union, Men and Religion Forward movement, the ministerial alliances that exist in many cities, and the very active Federation o' the Churches of Christ in America. Albert Clay Zumbrunnen, in a little book, The Community Church," published by the University of Chicago Press, examines the bases for denomination union in a hopeful way. He writes there: "Thl hsl of service the attainment of cer tain specific objective ends and nonla that are for the common welfare which It found In tha com munity churches Is a probable 1nls for denomina tional unity because it allows for the most funda mental contention of Proteatnntlsm freedom of thought In respect to religious matters creeds, dogmas, faiths.
