There are enthusiast! for material tucrett who

soma who mako their Job into an idol and who sor-m

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

taken off there are innumerable surprises.

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

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:

THE OREATEST MOTHER ON EARTH."
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

'These churches recognise tht uf, differences

It is generally held that churches of les than
100 members da net prosper. While this i not
meant in a purely material way, yet the economic
consideration h it bearing, too. Duplication.

"Ot;R MFMCINIB MKN," by Psul If. T
uruir. Th century company. New York.
A series of 10 essays, soma of which
have appeared In Century Magazine.
The author enters a rather severe In
dictment against the doctors of medi
cine. He present hi book ss "an
analysis )f the dignity, pomp and ab
surd pretension to science of our medi
cine men." He contends that it Is un
sound to consider tha doctor a a
scientist, is his relation to the pati
ents, or to think of medicine a an
independent science.
"One of the most distressing1 ten
dencies is American medicine," he
writes, "is the decline of tho old.
fashioned genornl proctloner, and his and those who want to know more of
nets cover a wide range of thought.
Mr. Betts maintains high standards in
all of this work. Hi.m of the poems
in this volume are reprints from na
tlonal publications. Votaries of the
Musii will find much pleasure In this
volume or verse.

The chubby Infant, the inquisitive,
ness of the observing growing child,
how to raise it a Christian, and in
fact .many unanswered questions re
garding child raining, are thcp.uchJy
dealt with In a true and informa
tive manner and in a style which is
very pl'-asing, especially to parents
displacement by the .modern socallrd
scientific physician and group doc
tor." He adds that the old-fnshlqned
doctor did not make a preliminary
survey into the prosperity of the pa
tient. The following1 Is on of th many
"hots shots" offered by the author:
"In a word, tho majority of nhvslclans
believe that they cannot afford to be
honest, and In this connection they
are indubitably right. For no citi
zen would be so foolish as to re
ward n physician with hard-earned
gold, if he really knew that It was
nature that had cured him and that
the doctor had been merely n sympa
thetic onlooker."
The author, an eminent bacteriol
ogist, claims that he writes out of a
knowledge gained from years of con.
tact with the medical profession.
