SOCIALISM VS. CHRISTIANITY.
The Rev. C. W. Robinson having de- i
fended Socialism and opposed an ed- i
itorial in the Enterprise asks some !
questions which we think can be an- j
swered entirely to his satisfaction if
he will read the works of Socialist I
writers by Marx, Lassalle, and Engels,
of the early writers, and Morris Rax,
Hyndman, Guesde and Babel of the
present day Socialists, Leibknecht, La
fargue, Adler and Plechauff, founders
: and teachers of Scientific Socialism,
ill preach against Christianity in all
its forms, whether Catholic, Protest
ant, Baptist, of what not.
In "Materialest Basis of History"
by Wilhelm Leibknecht we read:

Great Loss of Life
Which Could Be
Prevented
By Professor IRVING FISHER of Yale University
OUT OF SOME 1,500,000 DEATHS ANNUALLY IN THE UNITED
STATES AT LEAST 630,000 ARE PREVENTABLE.
This means over SEVENTEEN HUNDRED UN
NECESSARY DEATHS PER DAY, or more than the
lives lost in the great Titanic disaster, which spread a pall of gloom
over the world. The daily average death rate rarely gets a passing
comment.
As a first step in the great works of human conservation we should
establish AN ADEQUATE SYSTEM OF COLLECTING AND
DISTRIBUTING VITAL STATISTICS similar to the system in
use in Sweden.
Probably the greatest hygienic achievement of any country thua
far is that of Sweden, where the duration of life is the longest, the
mortality the least and the improvements the most general. There
alone can it be said that the chance of life have been improved for
all ages of lite.
Infancy, middle age and old age today show a lower mortality in
Sweden than in times past, while in other countries, including the
United States, although we can boaat of some reduction in infant
mortality, the MORTALITY AFTER MIDDLE AGE IS
GROWING WORSE, and the innate vitality of the people is in all
probability deteriorating.
There are three great agencies to which we must look for the
saving of human life in the future. They are the PUBLIC PRESS,
THE INS TRANCE COMPANIES AND THE GOVERNMENT.

Prof. Geo. D. Herron, says: Chris- i

The Professor further states, "Our

"The Socialist whose social creed
is his only religion requires no tra

keeping his ideal before him."
Rev. Wm. Thurston Brown is a lead
er in the Socialist party. He was so

ernor of New York 10 years ago. In
a "sermon" published in the "Social

"If ever in the history of the world

I ADVERTISING
TALKS No. 3 J
SJ$&$$$S8$JS
(By Ralph Kaye.)
Advertising is a branch or an arm
of the business world, the same as
law or medicine. There isrft a man
in the world who, when he is sick,
would call up the doctor to tell him
what's the matter without first being
thoroughly examined to learn the true
state of his condition. Again, there
isn't a business man who, when he has
a law case on his hands expects his
lawyer to win without first telling
him every detail in connection with
the casg. Then why should a busi
ness man neglect the matter of adver
tising, which will cure his business
ill and plead his case before the pub
lic, if given a square deal.
Good advertising demands proper
attention, personal interest and plen
ty of time. It cannot be done in a
minute, or a day or possibly a week.
Instead of a last-minute, or day or
possibly a week. Instead of a last
minute proposition it is a first-minute
one.

scott, D. D.)
The Great Question. Mark viii:27- i
Golden Text Thou art Christ, the i
Son of the living God. Matt. xvi:16
(1) Verse 27 Where was Caesarea
Philippi situated and what class of
people were the inhabitants?
U) Why did Jesus want to know
who the people said fle was?
(3) Is it right or wrong, and' why,
for us to be anxious about what the I
people say of us?
(4) Verse 28 Why did the people
think Jesus was either John, Elijah or j
one of tne prophets?( See Matt. xiv:2)
(5) In view of the fact that prior to
this they had been saying he was the
Christ, why were they not now saying
so? (See John iv:41; Mark iii:ll,
12; v:7.)
(6) Why did not Jesus publicly de-1
clare himself as the Christ and why j
did he refuse to let them make him
king? (See John vi:15.)
(7) If Jesus at this time was not j
fulfilling the national expectations of
the people concerning the Messiah
what effect would that have upon the
opinions the people had of him?
(8) Verse 29 What evidence have
we today that Jesus is the Christ of
God? (This is one of the questions
which may be answered in writing by
members of the club.)
(9) How did Peter know that Jesus
was Christ? (See Matt. vxt:l5-17)
(10) Peter and the other apostles
had known before that Jesus was
Christ, but how does this declaration
here differ from his former belief?
(See Matt. xiv:33; ix:27; xii:23.)
(11) There is belief and belief, but
what is the only way to reach the su
preme conviction that eJsus is the
Christ? (See I Cor. xii:3.)
(12) Verse 30 Why, seeing Jesus
came to the earth as the Christ, did
he forbid them to make that fact
known?
(13) Verse 31 When we are thwart
ed in doing our work in the best way,
the way in which we had planned,
what should we do then, and why?
(14) Would Christ have preferred
that they Tiad accepted him as their
Saviour rather than rejecting him?
Why?
(15) Was it God's original purpose,
or not, and why, that the Jews should
reject and cruicify Jesus?
(16) Verses 32-33 Wherein consist
ed Peters folly in differing with Jes
us? (17) If Jesus at this time had ad
opted Peter's view what would that
have led him to do?
(18) Veres 34-35 Why is It that no
man can b a follower of Jesus with
out self denial and suffering?
(19) What is the nature of the seif
denial and suffering which all true
Christians must endure?
(20) Verses 36-37 What- is the
most priceless possesion a man has?
(21) To what extent of loss should
a man go if essential to the salvation
of his soul?
(22) If a millionaire dies without

ing in Christ what will be the differ
ence in their wealth in eternity?
(23) Verse 38 What is it to be
ashamed of Christ and what will it be
to be rejected by him?
(24) ix:l How did some of those
