And for' our commercial flying we depend on private initiative, citizens building planes that will "get by” and enable them to mak) money carrying mail. That isn’t a Government programme for pro moting aviation. Clergymen am protesting against the abbreviated “Xmas,” which re duces the name of Christ to “X.” The abbreviation is disrespectful to the most beautiful word in his tory, ami it is disrespectful to the Knglish language. Anybody who was in too much of a hurry to write out “Christmas” should not use the word. Wise men in Milwaukee will de vote three days to discussing high questions, including this, “Can Christianity be of any parctical u«e in changing existing conditions?” Christianity has been changing existing conditions for about nine teen hundred years, there is no reason why it should break down , now. To "love thy neighbor as thyself,” trying to help hmff in stead of trying to rob him, will al ways improve conditions if men mean it. Should millions of women read of the death of Sir Oliver Lodge, Marconi, Millikin ami a doum other great scientists the maiority would say, "That’s too bad,” an 1 be not much interested. Every one of millions will be in terested to hear that Jean Phillip • Worth, tho famous dressmaker, ha ? gone to a land where there is ro sewing. His house dressed queens ar. 1 empresses of state and flnanc<*, ais? young ladies with whom their fop ' ran around in Paris.

We light little bonfire.-, heat steam, and thus obtain power. Mars might teach us to Karnes- th* power of the sun, and transmit en ergy without wires, which would <!.» away with engines or fuel on fly ing machines, ami give us unlimited power. Ar.othei suggestion before Con- press is to forbid experiment with tfn scientific study of poison gases. The peak of absurdity is to sug gest that we must not KNOW about poison gases. Can we not trust ourselves. Is it not idiocy to say that.our scientists shall not keep this country informed about important waVlike weapons? We are •'ot planning to gas any body, but we should be ready to answer gas with gas. To tie our hands would be idiocy. • * ^ — — DR. FRANK CRANE SAYS Tha &mI Has Its Weathers. Sometimea all la bringt and serene, and other times it is dark aad cloudy, all is bright and Aa to tha of the they nor whither they go, but taka their blowing #s an act of God beyond our control, so our moods and tempers to arise we know not bow. The best we can do is to maintain our poise aa much <u possible and turn our ideala when the winds of pes simism and doubt are upon us, and remain as equable as we can. .1:. We speak of getting out of bed in the morning yrith the wrong foot fore most. It is another way of saying that we are in the grip of a mood that is beyond our control. • . — How many acts of our fellows that seem to us malicious are simply due to the prevalence of some uncontrollable me od in them 7 There #re some people, thanks, be, that ere always bright and cheery. One who hae this sunny disposition is to be congratulated, and even more to be felicitated are those about him. If one can be a point of sunshine in this storm-toesed world he has cer tainly added much to human well be ing. The alternation of moods, however, ia common to all of us. We should all expect some dark days and resist their influaued aa much aa possible. We can do very much with our wiH. Our judgment should tell m the danger of letting ourselves go when "the wind is from the east.” We should wait until the times change and not give way to our dark humors. It can be accomplished if we are but flx^d in our determination to encour age cheerful moods and discourage untoward .feelings. -z We cannot contiol our feelings, it ie true, but by a set purpose can make them strengthen us.
