THE MORBID 'SOUVENIR HUNTERS.
Psychologists have never explained nnd perhaps never
wilf'explain the peculiar twist of human nature which sends
myriads of morbidly curious to the scenes of great disasters,
to Scenes of suffering.
..News from Bath, Mich.,
manifestation of this inexplicable' complex. The residents
of that little community are all too eager to forget the May
time tragedy in which a maniac placed bombs in the public
school and caused the deaths of over forty children, but
swarms of sightseers, insatiably hungry for emotionalism,
sweep into the city on all occasions and will not let the
mourning forget.
Whittling fragments from timbers of the wrecked school
building, carrying off loose bricks, prying even into the
houses of those families whose children were killed or in
jured in the explosion, the fly-minded curious give the poor
people of Bath no peace, no chance to recover from the dee)
hurts of grief,
. What type of mentality is it that thus glories in the
.misery of others and gloats over horror with avidity?
It is not a type of mentality which is peculiar to any one
section of the country. . Even the New England tomb of Pres
ident Coolidge's youiig son John was all but chipped away
by the souvenir-mad tourists; There are many homes which
no doubt boast of fragments from the San Francisco earth
quake. Belies soaked in blood are held more precious than
riches. ;' .
, To read that there are, in this advanced age, people who
still delight in such barbarity is enough to make even the
most hopeful of prophets despair for humanity.
Believers in the literal truth of the Bible grant the world
an age of some G000 years. In 6000 years, it at times ap
pears that humanity has gone backwards." Certainly the
demonstrations of the sightseers in Bath is evidence of
savagery as inhuman as any rite practiced by ancient bar
barians. - ' -
v The child today who dolights in torturing cats and dogs
is considered sub-normal, yet his abnormalities are no lower
than those displayed by the pilgrims to Bath who torture the
Survivors of Andrew Kehoe's insanity, , - '
The Federal 'Department of Agriculture's highway
bureau is now at work putting up its uniform system ol! rOad
markers to replace the hodgepodge fingerposts of confusion
which could be found whon each separate bailiwick marked
its own cowpaths in its own distinct and individual manner.
The department of commerce, apparently, is to pravont any
, such mixup in the tacking up of aerial signposts, for from
the bureau of aeronautics in Washington there have been
Bent to all chambers of commcrco instructions for a uniform
system of marking aerial routes and designating the direc
tion and distances to airports. In putting up these aerial
signposts, the departir.cnt should have the fullest -coopcra-
, tion of every community. Fliers going over unfamiliar
country have recently complained that their .only way of
making sure of their location was to fly low over towns and
pick up the name from signs on railroad stations. This is
' hazardous for pilots and villagers alike, and definite airway
markings will reduce the risks of flying considerably. The
costly business of remarking overy road in the country is
excusable and explainable cn the ground that the problem
was new and unforeseen, but there is no need for making the
same mistake in charting the air.
If there be yet scoffers who doubt that our civilization
is moving at breakneck clip, ho has but to learn that knitting
mills now rival the weekly magazines in the speed with
which fabric designs must be kept abreast of current news.
When a favorite movie star dies, the cotton mills must have
a special weave and design of fabric on the market before
. the body gets decently chilled in the grave. When a race
horse becomes a national hero by repealed triumphs on turf
or track, the designers must turn out a cloth bearing a
woven head of this same nag. Six days after Lindbergh took
off for Paris, the mills were turning out "Welcome Home,"
and "Airway" prints. Ten years ago, looms used to turn out
fabrics six and eight months ahead of the season. Today,
this season's fabrics are out of stylo berore the season
arrives.
Idol-smashers have been busier than ever in the recent
years which have seen an increased popular interest in
biography. You may read, for instance, in some of the moat
recent biographies of George Washington, that lie was rath
er a common person, mediocre, somowlmj illiterate and de
void of real greatness. Against such conceptions of Wash
ington there are many arguments, but perhaps one of the
most significant is the characterization of him by Patrick
Henry, who sat with him in the Virginia House of Burgesses.
"Washington," said Henry, "was, for .solid information and
sound judgment, the greatest man in the assembly." After
all, Patrick Henry really knew the man and saw him in
aulion- ' i . t.S!'SJ

INTIMATE HISTORIE,
I'm going to give you the inside
stuff about Myles 8tandish, and
Priscilla. It seems that Elder
Brewster gave Myles a panning for
not removing his tin hat-at pray,
ere. Myles, being kind of hard,
like all soldiers get when they go
abroad, looked the Elder over care
fully, and then bespoke him fair.
"Elder," quoth Mylea, "be your,
aelfi You talk like a Gold' Brick.
I was told when I came over here
that I could live my own life and
let my ego develop. I don't even
eat. Ail self and platoon have had

kindly criticism yourself. That talk
of yours about Melt being eo nice
and warm may be Jake from a law

It's applesauce in January. What
are you trying to do, start a crime
wave?"
At that Myles' roughnecks haw
hawed right out in meeting. Elder
Brewster was furious and is alleg
ed to have given currency to the
story about Myles and the .little
Mullins. There wasn t a word of
truth in It, of course, Priccilla not

God's Great Promisee.--1 Chron.
17:1-12..
BY WM. E. GfLROY, D. O.
Editor of The Congregationaliat
David, whatever may have been
his faults, was a man of keen
practicality and perception. , His
impulses and (he temptations as
sociated wiiu them often swept
him away from his better instincts
and purposes. But, unlike many
pejple in the modern world, he
did not keep his religion and tho
rest of his Hfo In separate com
partments, hi his best moods he
reaiized the nature of his sins,
and lie deplored them. The hypo
crlte, or the man whose religion
lacks perception, keeps his sinful
ness In a separate compartment
and Is never greatly worried be
cause of some discrepancy bo
tweeu his practice and his profes
sion. Thero aro people who do not
seem to notice that they live in
line and beautiful houses, while
the church that they attend is
shabby and disreputable. Often
those who spend th0 most upon
themselves and upon their homes
are least' wiling to spend upon
making tho church clean, beauti
ful a iu! attractive.
David Wanted Temple
David was troubled Uiat he
dwelt in a house or cedar while
the Ark or the Covenant was still
in a tent. It did not seem to him
fitting that that which symbolized
the presence of God should be less
worthily housed than himself. So
tiiere came to him the idea of
building a temple. It seemed a
worthy Idea, and tbe man who ori
ginated it naturally ougnt to have
beea tiie man to carry it out. JJut
God is represented as opposing
the fulfillment by David of thete
plans and the postponement of the
building of the temple until it shall
be built by one of David's sons.
. How did this revelation come?
Nathan the prophet at first ap-
proved of David's plan, and then,
we are told that the same night :
the word of God came to Nathan.
How did the word of God come to
men of old? Was it through a
dream, or was It in some such way
as the word of God comes to men
today by reflection upon God's
purposes? We must remember
that in reading the Bible we are
constantly in the atmosphere of
eastern Imagery and expression.
To road It with a llteralistlc, pro
saic mind is to miss alike Its
background and its significance.

GOD'S GREAT PROMISES
Text: 1 Chron. 17:1-12.
Now Is came to pass, as David sat in his house, that David said to
Nathan the prophet, Lo, I dwell In an house of Cedars, but the ark of
the covenant of the Lord remaineth under curtains.
Then Nathan said unto David, Do all that Is in thine heart; for God
Is with thee.
And It came to pass the same night, that the word of God came to
Nathan, saying,
Go and tell David my servant, Thus salth the Lord, Thou shalt not
build me an house to dwell in:
For I have not dwell In an house since the day that I brought up
Israel unto, this day; but have gone from tent to tent, and from one

Itself Is represented as a wroug
and dcplorublo thing.
It is worth while to meditate
upon this distinction so long ago
expressed, for tho distinction is
nut always by tiny means clearly
marki'd In our modorn life, and In
the obscuring of tha distinction
lies tho great weakness in relation
to (ho problems and prospects ot
world peace.
Tho slmplo matter of fact la
that church and school have been
ultcgether too largely exploited In
connection with military things.
It would be a profound gain if
these institutions that inherently
have to do with peace and civili
zation could be kept free from
tho desecrating environments of
war and bloodshed. For we niUBt
not forget that war- Is bloodshed.
It Is the terrible business of kil
ling, and as such it Is opposed lo
all the finer Instincts ol' man as
well aa to the decrees ot God.
When Force Is Justified '
The fact that even war and kil
ling may be sometimes uecessary
to prevent some deeper evil does
not alter the truth and value ot
these considerations. In tact, it
only does a great deal more to ob
scure the distinction which this an
cient writer recognized as so im
portant. We would justify the use of
force iu restraining a sick person
who was in delirium. The average
man would shoot dow,n ' even his
own brother if Unit brother hi a
fit of madness wore endangering
the other members of the family
and that were the only way lo
deal with the situation.
' There aro times when war and
force be necessary, but it
makes great difference whether
we regard them in the light' iu
which wo would regard the use of
force In these cases specified or
whether from justifying them in
extreme cases of necessity we
come lo dress them up in tlngeT
an1 glory.
Only In the last resort, when
I with agonizing effort everything
1 has been done to maintain peace,
la war in any sense Justifiable, and
even, when war would be juBtlll-
'able because of such an extromo
situation, It would be remembered
the wl?le l',lR"s ""' Purpose
of God, as the plans and purposes
I of all good and ''shteous men, are
