When you connect the word "hope" with salvation, then what a wonderful word it becomes! At once it comes to measure man's most delightful Christian attainment. Indeed, so intimately is it associated with practical goodness, that religion itself is called "a good hope through grace."—Thomas Armitage. IS LIBERTY DESIRABLE? Those who prize liberty so highly (meaning the elimination of law) and cry so loudly for it should go back to Ruskin and learn what liberty really is. Liberty is an attitude of the lower animals and is dishonorable in itself, for no human being, no matter how great or powerful, he points out, was ever so free as a fish. There is always something a man must or must not do, while the fish can do as he likes and the ocean is wide and fins are wonderful propellers. Would the man who chafes against restraint be a fish? It is restraint that is honorable to a man; for it is that which characterizes the higher creatures. "As the first power of a nation consists in knowing how to guide a plow, its second power consists in knowing how to wear the better," says Ruskin. And he describes this fetter as "the typical instrument of the restraint or subjection necessary in a nation—either literally for its evil doers, or figuratively, in accepted laws, for its wise and good men. You have to choose between this figurative and literal use, for, depend upon it, the more laws you accept, the fewer penalties you will have to endure and the fewer punishments to enforce. For wise laws and just It is restraint that is honorable to a man; for it is that which characterizes the higher creatures. "As the first power of a nation consists in knowing how to guide a plow, its second power consists in knowing how to wear the letter," says Ruskin. And he describes this letter as "the typical instrument of the restraint or subjection necessary in a nation—either literally for its evil doers, or figuratively, in accepted laws, for its wise and good men. You have to choose between this figurative and literal use, for, depend upon it, the more laws you accept, the fewer penalties you will have to endure and the fewer punishments to enforce. For wise laws and just restraints are to a noble nation not chains, but chain-mail—strength and defense, though something also of an encumbrance. And this necessity of restraint, remember, is just as honorable to man as the necessity of labor." Jack Dempsey is married. Now, who's champion? To reduce taxes, reduce appropriations. America is no other way. Say it with kind words. These give no sting and bring no regrets. Is there money in poultry raising? Yes—but not always for the poultry raiser. Religion should be blended with common sense. The two are not inconsistent. The demand for economy in government should be steady and consistent, not sporadic. The Colorado river is destined to become one of the most useful streams in the world. "AMERICANS AS A RACE ARE SLAPPING," SAYS NOTED SURGEON Is it possible to breed a race of "human thoroughbreds?" According to Dr. John Harvey Kellogg, famous surgeon and authority on hydro therapy, it is. But the promise is held out only by way of contrast to the terrifying alternative that Dr Kellogg claims confronts mankind if measures to improve the race are not taken forthwith. Among his many indictments of modern civilization, the noted surgeon accuses it of promoting disease and being the chief factor in race degeneracy. "There can be no doubt," said Dr Kellogg in a recent discussion of the menace as they see it—with Albert Henry Wiggam, author of "The Fruit of the Family Tree," that we are going downhill. Insecurity is increasing. Crime is increasing. Diseases which result from degeneration, such as heart disease and cancer are steadily increasing. In the matter of dietary improvement, the doctor, who has conducted extensive research into the question of vegetarian diet for man, urges a larger use of greens and a considerable addition to the average amount of milk consumed daily by individuals. Suzu measures would, he says, result undoubtedly in a marked improvement in American physique. "We are," he avers, "rapidly becoming a toothless nation because the average diet is lacking in the material needed for the construction of teeth and bones." He claims also that America is becoming an anemic nation thru PARAGRAPH (By Robert Quillen) If winter comes, can the catalogs be far behind? If he has a pet law he like to see passed he is norm. Evolution will in time take of the less nimble pedes. Look at the turtle. Be sure you are right, a that time somebody else b parking space.

Among his many indictments of modern civilization, the noted surgeon discusses it of promoting disease and being the chief factor in race degeneracy. "There can be no doubt," said Dr. Kellogg in a recent discussion of the menace as they see it—with Albert Henry Wiggam, author of "The Fruit of the Family Tree." "that we are going downhill. Insecurity is increasing. Crime is increasing. Diseases which result from degeneration, such as heart disease and cancer are steadily increasing." Change Habits or Die Unless the human race mends its habits, warns Dr. Kellogg, unless it "lives biologically," it is probably doomed to early extinction. "Americans," he says, "are losing in stature," and he further quotes Dr. Henry Fairfield Osborn as saying that investigations made during the world war led to the discovery that the people of the United States on the average had lost two and a half inches in stature since the Civil war; while another authority, Dr. Kellogg points out, has shown that "there has been a failing off in stature within the last 50 years of at least half an inch" among Americans. The doctor concedes that some of this physical falling off may be due to immigration, but contends that other causes also arise work, as the fact that the great conduct extensive research into the question of vegetarian diet for man, urges a larger use of greens and a considerable addition to the average amount of milk consumed daily by individuals. Suen measures would, he says, result undoubtedly in a marked improvement in American physique. "We are," he avers, "rapidly becoming a toothless nation because the average diet is lacking in the material needed for the construction of teeth and bones." He claims also that America is becoming an anemic nation thus too much reliance on foods deficient in iron as well as lime and vitamins. He says there is good ground for the belief that the average American is 20 to 40 percent below par in the quality of his blood. Marks Pathway to Health "The time," he says, "has come when the human race should take itself in hand and mark out a regime that will lead toward race improvement to replace the present reckless self-indulgent mode of life which is driving us down to race extinction." Our great needs, according to Dr. Kellogg, are new ethical standards, a new conscience, a broader religion, a code of ethics which will place the carnals of historical law along side those of the decadence and make man's responsibility to the human race—to these who come after him—the ruling influence of his conduct.

"Well, mum," she replied, with my husband-that-is-to be everything goes with such light-nin speed that I'm confused. Day before yesterday we got acquainted, yesterday we got engaged, and today I find he already owes me eighty-five dollars." Two brothers were exchanging compliments, as brothers will, regarding their respective girl friends. "I hope you're not suffering from any hallucination that your girl is a raving beauty," she sneered. "I sure am," replied the younger Peter Bayy, "and I'm going to continue to hug my illusion." There was a party on. The host missed one of his bosom friends who had not appeared, and called him on the phone. "We're having a party," he said. "Come on over." "Sorry, but I can't. I'm in my room with a case of neuritis." "Sall right. Bring a couple bottles with ya. This gang'll drink anything." HEALTH & DIET ADVICE By Dr. Frank McCoy Author of "THE FAST WAY TO HEALTH" GOOD PROTEID FOOD (Continued) BELGIAN HARE. This particular kind of rabbit is raised in certain parts of the country in large numbers for different purposes, and I am specially mentioning Belgian hare because of the fact that the meat from this is the healthiest and most easily diested. The weight of the hares on the market is about 1½ to 2½ lbs., and in this size they may be broiled, and can even be satisfactorily pan roasted without grease. Two or three may be put in the roasting pan in the oven and roasted through in a few minutes. If it is impossible to secure a rabbit weighing 4 to 5 lbs. when groomed, you will find that a most satisfactory roast may be made of it, stuffing it with the same dressing as explained in the article for chicken and turkey. This older rabbits have a distinctively flavor, and is more desired than the younger variety by those who have ever eaten it, but as the market calls for smaller rabbits, you will possibly have difficulty finding one of the large size. In case your local dealer is puzzled by the name "Belgian Hare" it may be explained that only such rabbits as are raised for eating purposes and whose meat is light after cooking are recommended for use. MONDAY, FEBRUARY 16, 1925 WHO'S WHO IN THE DAYS NEWS GEORGE F. BAKER Dean of N.Y. bankers and one of the leading financiers of America is George F. Baker in whose honor a testimonial dinner was given recently by the N.Y. State Bankers' Assn. Baker is credited with having been interviewed just once in his life, consequently little has been said generally about this "master of the lost art of silence" as he is called. It was in 1835 that Baker's ancestors first set foot on American soil, arriving in Boston, having come as second in command of a Norse hark from Gravesend, England. George F. Baker was born on March 27, 1840, in Troy, N.Y. When he was 8 years old the family moved to Brooklyn and his father engaged in the shoe business in Malden Lane, N.Y. It is recorded that the first nunney Baker ever earned—the sum of $7 was acquired by amassing the cranberries which others had overlooked until he filled a sleigh with them. At the age of 16 Baker left school. He was 28 when he became a clerk in the State Banking Dept at Albany, N.Y., at a salary of $500 per year. Incidentally it is recorded that of that smallest salary that he ever earned the time he started to work he made an immediate saving of $100 a year. In 1863 when Secretary of the Treasury Salmon P. Chase conceived the idea of selling bonds through the banks, and the national banking system was evolved, Baker was offered a position as teller in one of these national banks in N.Y.—a bank which was formed with a capital of $200,000. In latter years he has been a great giver. He has been president of the Metropolitan Opera House Asn. He has made many comments of the press What Editors Are Saying THE HOME-TOWN IDEAL—San Jose Mercury Work for and with your home town. Beautify it. Improve it. Make it attractive. Help make it the kind of a town that you really want to live in. The League of Nations, the Volstead Act, the Tariff and such things are important subjects; but what's the use of cleaning up the world unless we sweep our own doorsteps? The best advertisement of your business is the town you live in if it's the kind of a town it should be. Towns get reputations as well as men. Repetition makes reputation. Make your town's reputation one that will attract favorable attention. It will thus draw people and where people come there is prosperity. Help rid your town of one eyesore after another. Clean up vacant lots, and plant them in gardens. Make it cluttered up and disgrace and an unpainted house a reproach. Cut the weeds, clean the street, and fix the sidewalks. Wash the store windows and discountenance the flaring sale sign. Be fair to your public officials and pay your taxes without grumbling so that they may give the best service possible to back you. Make public opinion too hot for those who knock; refuse to cooperate for general good and who will not help. Our town should be one where folks are friendly, where progressiveness is appreciated, where good roads make it accessible, where proper sanitary methods are conductive to healthfulness, where attractiveness is considered an asset, where education fits for the future, where recreations are plentiful for all, where government is efficient and popular, where living conditions are good, where the helping hand is extended to the unfortunate, where employment is plentiful, where investments are sound, where internecance is unknown, and church spires point the way to heaven. That's the kind of a home town we want! GLEANINGS FROM THE BOOK OF LIFE 87 VARIETIES—and MANY MORE! Have you ever noticed how many definitions of liberty there are abroad in the land? The only freedom which deserves the name, is that of pursuing our own good in our own way, as long as we do not attempt to deprive others of theirs, or impede their efforts to obtain it. Each is the proper guardian of his own health, whether bodily or mental or spiritual. Mankind are greater gainers by suffering each other to live as seems good to themselves, than by compelling each to live as seems good to the rest. Though this doctrine is anything but new, there is no doctrine which stands more directly opposed to the general tendency of getting opinion and practice. Everywhere it is being observed In 1863 when Secretary of the Treasury Salmon P. Chase conceived the idea of selling bonds through the banks, and the national banking system was evolved, Baker was offered a position as teller in one of these national banks in N.Y.—a bank which was formed with a capital of $200,000. In latter years he has been a great giver. He has been president of the Metropolitan Opera House Assn. He has made many gifts to the Metropolitan Museum. To the Red Cross he gave $2,000,000 during the war. He has given a student dormitory and chemical laboratory to Cornell; Baker Field, the 30 acres for athletic purposes, to Columbia, and five million dollars for the Graduate School of Business Administration of Harvard, which bears the name of the George F. Baker Foundation. He who fears all germs does not know that most of them are our very good friends, without which we could not exist.

Though this doctrine is anything but new, there is no doctrine which stands more directly opposed to the general tendency of exiting opinion and practice. Everywhere it is being observed that Society has expanded fully as much in the attempt (according to its lights) to compel people to conform to its notions of personal, as of social excellence. John Stuart Mill observed that the disposition of mankind whether as rulers or as fellow citizens, to impose their own opinions and inclinations as a rule of conduct on others, is energetically supported by some of the best and some of the worst feelings incident to human nature, that it is hardly ever kept under control by anything but want of power. And as the power is not declining, but growing, unless a strong barrier of moral conviction can be raised against it, we must expect, in the present circumstances of the world, to see it increase.
