The success of the Community Chest plan in Omaha, and in many other cities where given a fair trial, has been so overwhelming as to demand its continuance. We are told in the Good Book that the poor we always have with us, and with that thought in mind it might be well to look up First Corinthians and read; "Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or tinkling cymbal. "And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity. It profiteth me nothing. “And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity. It profiteth me nothing. "Charity suffereth long and Is kind; charity en vieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up. "Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, Is not easily provoked, thlnketh no evil. "And now abideth Faith, Hope and Charity, these three, but the greatest of these Is Charity.” Charity, translated into terms of love, of self-sac rifice, is the greatest thing in the world. Not "skimped and Iced, In the name of a cautious, statistical Christ.” ■—but open-handed charity that seeks the best method of service to suffering humanity; the charity that seems to enlarge its scope by making sure that Its ministrations reach the really needy. That is the aim and purpose of the Community Chest program. To save duplication of work and thereby increase the results. To prevent selfishness that results in the starvation of those who really need. To make haste when suffering is revealed, and to make sure that those who give are not de ceived. “Give once for all" is the Community Chest “logan. Not give once for all time, but give once for all to the charitable purposes of the year, and put the agencies of distribution into competent hands. No greater work will be, or can be, undertaken in Omaha than the work of raising the required $402,000 to fill Omaha’s Community Chest. Men and women could not dedicate a few days of their time to a more worthy purpose. The right sort of spirit, the right sort of love as examplified in good Works, will put the Community Chest over the top within the time limit set by the committee. Omaha has never yet failed when fronted with opportunity to serve or achieve. No greater opportunity offers than to alleviate human pain and suffering, to clothe the naked, to feed the hungry, to visit the fatherless and the widows. Give of your money, then give of your time to the work of making the Community Chest plan a glorious success. _ THE SMALL COLLEGES. The good work of the smaller colleges, and es pecially of the colleges that make a specialty of Christian education, is recognized by all far-seeing citizens. Nebraska has several such colleges, and • they have for many years been doing constructive *ork. Unaided by appropriations derived from tax money, they must depend upon private contribu tions, and it speaks well for the devotion of Chris tian men and women that these colleges have not only been kept alive, but have been enlarging their fields of usefulness. Among these Christian colleges Cotner university, located at Bethany, a suburb of Lincoln, may be cited as a noteworthy example. Es tablished thirty-seven years ago by the Christian church, it has weathered many a financial storm be cause it has had the support of a devoted brother hood. Today it is not only doing the best work in its career, but is preparing to do a much greater work. A campaign is now on to secure for Cotner uni versity an endowment of a million dollars. Natur ally the Christian churches of the country will be called upon to contribute by far the greater part of this endowment. But an opportunity is offered to supporxcrs of Christian education, of whatever church affiliation, or no affiliation at all, who have a desire to further the kind of work that Cotner has been doing so well for so many years. Omaha should have a generous part in this endowment campaign because the university was named after a former Omahan, Samuel Cotner, whose Christian zeal im pelled him to devote the best years of his life and considerable money to its creation and support. HEAD IT OFF NOW. If any member-elect of the legislature Is think ing about incubating a bill to censor the movies, or has one already incubated, will such a one stand up! Such a one should be located as quickly as possible so that steps may be taken to head him off. Of course the movies need censoring. No one will deny that unless it be a few movie magnates. But state censorship by commission should not be tolerated, and for many reasons. The chief reason Is that real censorship should be executed in the home. The best censorship is refusal to patronize the motion picture houses that persist in offering pictures that arc an offense to decency. There are such scattered all over the country. The parents who demand state censorship in order to protect their children are self-confessed failures as parents. What they need is not a law establishing a censorship but a law compelling them to accept their parental re sponsibility. Another reason for opposition to censorship is the fact that there are already too many laws upon the statute books put there by those who pose as the doers of good merely to give themselves excuse for “letting George do it.” And still another reason is that the enactment of such a law would he an entering wedge for the enactment of laws censoring the public press, cen soring public speech, censoring the spoken drama, censoring music, and censoring everything that a vociferous class of professional fault-finders might see fit to oppose. Wouldn’t it be great and grand if we could have, for once, a session of the legislature that con fined its activities to amending and repealing, ut terly refusing to further clutter up the books with a lot of new laws? PECULIAR ELECTION FEATURES. There was more complaints, more whining, more denunciation, indulged in during the recent national campaign than ever before in history. But despite all this the total vote in 1924 is no greater than it was four years ago, and many millions short of the total predicted by campaign managers. Every possible effort was made to interest the voters and induce them to go to the polls, but more than 14,000,000 eligible voters failed to exercise the right of franchise. Get-out-the-vote clubs were organized all over the country, and it was hoped that not less than thirty million of the forty million eligi ble voters would go to the polls. The total was only twenty-six million. President Coolidge ran ahead of Harding in 17 states and behind Harding in 31 states. Davis car ried more states than Cox, but ran a million votes behind the democratic candidate of 1920. And while Davis ran ahead of Cox in 19 states he ran behind him in 29 states. La Follette ran ahead of Coolidge in one state, but he ran ahead of Cox in 11 states. Coolidge beat Davis worse than Harding beat Cox, yet Coolidge ran behind Harding* The returns of the election of 1924 will furnish ample opportunity for research and discussion for several years to come. But the queerest thing about it all is that with so much discontent, so much dis satisfaction, so much grumbling, more than 35 per cent of the voters remain away from the polls and take no part in the election of officers to transact the business of government. PROSPERITY FACTS. Prosperity is a fact, not a promise, in Nebraska. The figures prove it while disproving the whines and plaints of the pessimists. Bank deposits in Omaha alone have increased more than $25,000,000 during the first ten months of the year, an increase of $2,600,000 a month. A proportionate increase is reported by out-state banks. More grain has been marketed in Omaha during the first ten months of this year than was mar keted during the entire twelve months of 1923, and 13,000,000 more bushels than were marketed during the corresponding ten months of last year. And the increased price per bushel must be taken into consideration. During the first ten months of this year the Union Stock Yards received 145,349 more head of livestock than during the corresponding period of last year, with an average increased price per head over the former period. Building permits in Omaha show an increase over the first ten months of 1923, and the same re ports come from all over the state. Wholesalers and manufacturers report an in creased volume of business. Banks report the liqui dation of heretofore frozen assets. Retail mer chants everywhere report better business, more cash purchases and rapid decrease in the volume of book accounts. The predictions of the calamity howlers have been set at naught. A new and greater prosperity has dawned in Nebraska. The facts are the best proof. There was considerable lifting up of eyes to the hills under the Wilson administration, which ac counts for the ease with which such gigantic raids were made upon the nation’s cash register during that period. The hills will be there for all time and ample opportunity therefore afforded for look ing at them occasionally, when there is no possible chance of further democratic fooling with the re ceptacle for the nation’s cash. Secretary Shumway of the Nebraska department of agriculture indignantly denies that Nebraska chickens are afflicted with necrotic enteritis. This is indeed good news, but what about lipstickitis, rougerotic applicitis and eyebrow pluckitis? The Scientific American wasted a lot of time trying to find a ghost. Now it is looking for artifi cial gold, seemingly unaware of the fact that most of us have seen as many ghosts as we have gold pieces. A scientist is trying to discover why women close their eyes when they are kissed. Maybe they do it for the purpose of trying to make themselves think it is the other fellow they are kissing. An eastern man is suing for divorce because his wife persists in driving from the back seat. It isn’t a divorce he needs; it is a pair of earmuffs six or eight inches long. The Norfolk Press speaks of the "inarticulate public.’’ Suffering cats! Did the Norfolk Press fail to hear the voice of the people on November 4? Mr. McAdoo says he prefers California to the White House as a place of residence. The acidity of California grapes must be on the increase. An eastern scientist urges us to sleep less and more efficiently. A lot of people would use the two hours thus saved to worry more. Representative Hill’s victory in his home-brew case will not help much unless there is a decided im provement in the recipes. An Atlantic (la.) woman captured a deer in her front yard. Many women have captured ’em in the front rooms, too. Those arrow votes in Iowa clearly pointed to the voters’ desire to throw Brookhart into the po litical discard. Bryan says the democratic party must be reor ganized. It will have to be resurrected first. Brookhart’s expense account is small, but bis suspense account must be something awful. I.a Follette says he will carry on, but picking up the pieces will delay the start indefinitely. The election returns indicate that the people in tended to knock the blocs off’n congress. Another Father and Son question Is how big is the Thanksgiving turkey going to b<^ Over the Hill and On Our Way L. _J Now that the counting of the election ballots is out of the "ay, the people of the country have set about making preparations for the new and better days ahead. This preparation Is based upon sound principles—the people have given an unmistakable mandate to the new administration. It is on the foundation of tills mandate that the new plans are being built. Nothing could he clearer than the instructions given by the peo ple. It "as emphatic notice to lawmakers, present and elect, that there shall not be any blind ex cursions into tlie realm of experi ment. The program outlined by President Coolidge in his messages and speeches shall he tlie sign posts by which the course shall lie steered. It is notice, too, as em phatic as an overwhelming ma jority can make it, that there must not be any excursions Into the realms of radicalism. The people are well content with the present system of three branches of gov ernment. There must be no tinker ing with laws calculated to hinder the onward march of restored prosperity. There was a rebuke also in the instructions—a rebuke to those who sought to advance themselves by betraying their party and blocking wisely considered legisla tion. It was emphatic. It cannot be misunderstood. President Coolldge's tremendous majority is notice to the impatient and the contrary minded that the people prefer going along with the president. They have confidence in his judgment rather than in the judgment of members of the op posite party aided and abetted by a few radicals -of his own party. The taunt so often heard from the Ups of those who opposed the president, that he was an acci dent, has been hurled back Into the teeth of those who uttered It. In a few days congress, that re fused so often to listen to the wise counsel of the president, will again meet. It is to be hoped that it will pay due heed to the mandate of the people. Here is an opportu nity for representatives and sena tors to realize that they are the servants of the people, elected to write the will of the people into statutory enactment. • • • Nothing could be clearer than that the people want neither laws nor prolonged discussion calculat ed to put obstacles in the way of a return to better business activity. They want constructive things, no retarding, no hindering, no delay. The people want the economy de manded by President Coolidge. They want assurance of safety to pri vate Industry and private initiative. They want justice and security for honest business, big and little. They want a continuation of the tariff policy that, guarantees protection to American industry. They have again emphatically announced that they will have no part or parcel In the complications of European na tions. « * • They want a revenue law that will bear evenly upon all, a law that will bring hidden capital to the sur face and set it to work in produc tive industry. • * • The people endorse the plan pro posed by President Coolidge, and which Is now under way, for solv ing the problem of the farmer. Tills commission will study the problem In all of Its ramifications and submit a report outlining their mature judgment as to the best way to bring about a betterment of agricultural conditions. It Is not temporary relief that is wanted, but a well considered plan that contem plates putting agriculture upon the same plane as other basic Industries of the country. There must be no hasty action. The commission Is made up of men who may be de pended upon to act wisely and for the best Interests of the whole people. • • • The people are not In favor of radical railroad legislation, but they are In favor of giving the great transportation Interests a fair op portunity to work out their own program. They can thus demon strate what they hold to be the Justice of their position. The peo ple do not want the Howell-Bark ley bill. Whatever the merits or demerits of that bill, the people are not In favor of It at this time. No one Is more Interested than the farmer In a proper solution of trans portatlon problems. That solution Is not to be arrived at, however, by hasty or ill-advised legislation. The present railroad labor board Is en titled to further trial. It is now up to the railroad managers. If they cannot work out their program the people will compel a change. They ' are entitled to their fair chance to work out their own destiny. The elections make sure they will have their chance. Above all the people have ex pressed their confidence in Presi dent Coolidge as a leader. If con gress Is wise It will give heed to that expression. President Coolidge and the new congress will be front ed by a grave responsibility, per haps the gravest that has faced any Incoming president and con gress within the present generation. So long as they carry out the wishes of the people as expressed at the polls they will hold the confidence of the people. There will he no room for playing politics. Coolidge has shown that he has the courage to push such things aside. Building Is always the more difficult job; there is little of the spectacular In building. It takes hard work, hard work and courage. President Coolidge has shown that he knows how to work. That Is why the mandate of the elections has put us over the hill, on the way to better days. /- —"S “From State and Nation” —Editorials from Other Newspapers— I _/ The Spiritual Side of Coolldge. From the Kansas City Star. Those who have attempted to analyze the popular strength of Presi dent Coolldge probably will set about their task anew, now that this strength has been measured in the election returns. If they do, they should not overlook the spiritual side of the practical economist, verbal and otherwise, who calmly pursued his of ficial course In Washington while the great campaign of which he was the central figure raged about him. The country never has had an Ir religious president, although the be liefs and standards and practices of the men In this Illustrious line varied greatly. But there Is a vast differ ence between being nominally relig ious and consistently religious. There is a difference between being religious and being an exponent of religion. President Coolldge Is a consistent Christian. A man of his birth, his early environment and his philosophy could not be otherwise. He Is not sanctimonious. There Is nothing In his life. In his character, In his habit or taste or practice, that makes for display. No other president has been less assuming. But through his life, his dealing with men and things and In his official utterances there is the note of a consistent Christian. He believes In a guiding Providence, and he publicly asks such guidance. There Is that about President Coolldge that denotes profound sincerity. With all their shortcomings, the American people are essentially re ligious. Even those who do not pro fess a faith or observe Its forms re spect thoso who do. and they want religious men In exalted places. Is not this one of the reasons President Coolldge nppeals to the people? Is not the advent of a man of his type In the presidency timely? The churches generally recognize a loos ening of the spiritual restraints. There are signs that license Is slowly superseding liberty. Churches sre seeking means to combat the tenden cy, and to a large extent they have the co-operation of those who are not of the churches, but believe In high moral standards. The force of President Coolldge Is obvious In certain results, but the ele ments of that strength sre hard to de fine hecatise of the nature of the man. ] But If the truth were known, perhaps religious consistency and Its relation to the office he holds and to the tend ency of the period of his leadership have had more effect than has been suspected. Foreign Trade. From ths I.o« Anselm Times. We are not obtaining the expected trade with South America. During , the first seven months of this year our exports to Brazil amounted to J35.000.000 in value. This, of course, is an advance, hut It Is relatively slight. Brazil Is a vast country, com paratively convenient to our shippers and needing most of our manufactur ed products. Yet our exports to Bra zil are hnrely one fifteenth of the value of our shipments to England. We are already exporting twice as much to China ns to Brazil, and the Chinese are not particularly friendly with us at this moment. A Cheerful Winter rrospeet. From ths St. Taiil Dispatch. The United States weather bureau office In New York predicts an open winter. The prediction la based on 1li« record of more than half a cen lory which shows that twteo out of three times a warm October presage a mild winter. Bet us enjoy the hope that a pleasant winter spreads out before us. one such ns, while It makes ns tingle pleasantly to the touch of Its bright chill, withholds the harshness of Its bitter wind anil the pelting drive of snow. It should match up with our other prospects and bring ua back to that good content we have lost a little while, since that fatal platol shot In 'the Balkans. We are having a fore tssts of what Is returning to us—with a rush. As it was In Great Britain, after the election, when confidence returned, business resumed, stocks rose In value and that which seemed of dubious worth before, became de •treble. Pn It 1s happening with the United States, Our business winter Is to be an enjoyable one. Since election wheat lias risen 12 cents Rail and Industrial stocks, following renewed faith In the government and that is In the judgment of the is-nple, rose In value as buyers came forward from nil parts of tin- United .Stales It was lust one landslide after another- and the republican landslide came first "The public is buying," New York brokers report, and back It with the fact that the total sales in one day were $24,329,000 and the volume of business was greater than at any time since November 12, 1917, follow ing a liquidation after the armistice. Nor Is that the only Indication of coming fair weather. The mills Rnd factories of the east which have been running on part time give notice that they will resume on full time on Mon day, November 10. Farmers sure ofi their price are going to be consum ers; wage earners sure of steady em ployment buy freely, happy In the se curity of Industry—the gears mesh neatly and the great motive power of confidence has set them flying. The weather forecast flag of fair weather is nailed to the mast. Cancel Each Other, From th« Tork Evening Pont. Rear Admiral Mayo. retired, mourns over what Amertca surrender ed in the Washington arms confer ence. He believes we relinquished command of the Pacific He voices one American opinion. However, In Great Britain there Is a considerable group which holds that Britain sur rendered more than any other power and has weakened her prestige. There is a considerable segment of Japanese public opinion that would denounce all the treaties of Washington. Many Nipponese hold that they have sur rendered forever the strength that might have made them supreme In the far east and the Pacific. Since three parttea almost at Interest In the Washington settlement are all find ing that they have surrendered too much. It Is apparent that not one of them actually yielded more than they should. These criticisms cancel one another. Trne Public Opinion. From the Waahlngtoa Post. A New Tork cleric declares that public opinion Is no longer a com-1 petent guide In morals. He Is wrong. When It comes to the real things of life, In America at leaat, public opin ion holds fast to the standards that have been maintained through the ages. It still rises In righteous wrath against corruption in public office. It still demands Justice for all elements of the population. It still resents ex ploitation by profiteers. It still con demns Indecency. Public opinion Is the champion of the virtues, and can he counted on to maintain thnt cham pionship against all attack. The trouble with the New Tork cleric is that ho mistakes the chatter of New Tork for the deep voice of the American people. Corrected. "Betty attends nesrly every foot ball game.

The trouble with the visionaries and Idealist* who have such pretty dreams about the way to end war is that they overlook the fact that war is the result of human failings.

SUNNYSIDE UP ||' Hake Comfort.nor forget , cihatSunrise ne\/erfaile{££<r --—— --A Dearly beloved, let us turn to the 12th chapter of the Gos pel according to St. John, the 32d verse, for our text, the same j reading as follows: "And I, If I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto Me." It was the Carpenter of Nazareth who spake these words. For centuries crusaders fared forth lifting Him on high and preaching His word with holy zeal. No sacrifice too great, no way too long, no night too dark for these Inspired men of God to go forth to lift up the Savior of men. And men thus drawn ! to Him were strengthened and saved. The work of the Church began losing its hold upon the hearts of men coincident with the increasing belief in tha efficacy of legislative enactment in the work of making men moral. As "be 1t enacted" was lifted higher and higher, tha attention of men was turned from Him who assured us that all that was needed was to lift Him up to have all drawn unto Him. The religion of the Master was a religion of "thou shalt,’* not a religion of "thou shalt not." He led by love: He did not drive by fear or force. His appeal was to the hearts of men, riot to their fears. He wielded the sword of the spirit, not tha sword of finite law. Beloved, have we not been making the mistake of trusting too little In the regeneration of mankind by pointing them to the Cross of Calvary, and trusting too much in man-made laws that seek to rule by force and not by love? Christian men and women refrain from evil because they are Christians. Men and women who refrain from evil because they fear the law's pun* ishment are law-breakers In spirit and may not claim the re wards of the truly righteous. If man made laws are to save the world from sin and Judg- i ment to come, why waste time and money on building churches? Why sacrifice men and women in foreign fields? Why continue in the work of lifting Him up who said: "And I, if I be lifted up from the earth will draw’ all men unto Me?" v Why not call the legislature Into extraordinary session and > save mankind by Passing a Daw? But, dearly beloved, mankind Is not to be saved that way. The one and only way, the one and only plan of salvation, la plainly laid down In the teaching and preaching of the Man who walked and talked In Galilee. There Is no short Cut to the redemption of the race. If legislative enactment would suffice we might save time and worry by worshiping the legis lature and forgetting the Man of Galilee. The Great Commission, given 2,000 years ago to the chosen few. Is the same great commission that is given to each on# of us. That commission was to go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature. It was not to go out into the world and enact laws to make men moral. Man made laws may restrain, but they can not regenerate. Beloved, the thought we would impress upon your minds and hearts Is that we must look to the regenerating power of the holy spirit for the salvation of humanity, not to finite laws and legal restraints. And that regenerating power come# in greatest measure a# He is lifted up from the earth that He may draw all men unto Him. In conclusion, let ua sing that triumphant song of ths church militant: "Onward. Christian soldier, i Marching as to war: J With the Cross of Jesus Going on before.” And, singing, let us dedicate our hearts and our lives anew to lifting higher Him who died upon the tree, higher and still higher, that all men may see, and, seeing, believing, and be lieving be saved. Det us stand and sing. WILL M. MAUFIN.
