' Sermonette :- f Edited by 1 Harriet R. MacDonald "God led them not through tho ! way of the Philistines, although i that was near." (Exodus 13:17) The Children of Israel left Egypt, as we all know, with a definite ob jective, the land of Canaan. It was not part of their plan to spend the next forty years wandering In the wilderness. A short and triumphant march from Egypt to Palestine was all (they expected. now in our lesson we are lacea with just this situation. Israel had Just escaped from galling servitude In Egypt and was enthusiastic to get to the land of Canaan by the short est way. The way through the land of the PhlllBtlnes was NEAR: It was convenient. It offered a most desir able shortcut. Barring this way was a strong, organized people the Phil istines who certainly would oppose a passage through their territory. Israel, at this time, was really but an immense throng of escaped slaves, unorganized and untrained. Slaves do not become warriors overnight. We cannot doubt that an overwhelm ing defeat would have ensued had they attacked . the Philistines at once. . Whatever be our station in, life the path Is the same. Religion does not call on you to perform some spectacular feat (that would be- .a shortcut indeed). Instead It calls on you for something Infinitely harder: "Live up to what you believe." As we pass along thlB way of life we shall see rrtany paths diverging from it. Some of them seem! inviting and' attractive, VnS the- names on the gutdeposts make us pause, ever on the watch for 'that shortcut, but on the same post Is a finger point ing straight ahead and to the legend "Live up to'what you believe." Over this same road has passed a host of bold adventurers, led as was Israel of old through the wilderness to Canaan, by the Providence which would lead every one of us by the right path and "Not through the way of the Philistines although that was near." , REV. GUILEY Kev. Hoss Guilcy, of Eugene, will . be one of the leading speakers . at tile Christian Endeavor con vention to be held In la Grande . . this weekend.

Least of all do we enjoy be ing criticized before an audience. Yet most children are expected to take without a m.urmur a good deal of correction and criticism, before others. Father, looking down the length of the company dinner table, cor rects junior's manners. Motner, en tertaining guests at tea, tells her daughter that her hair Is badly done, her dress untidy and that she - looks a sight. I Johnny's pood grades in arith metic are discussed while sister stands by, an unsympathetic and 1 perhaps even pleased listener. I Whenever one finds it necessary to criticize his child's appearance, I Improve his manners, or go over his mistakes and shortcomings, he I should try to do It when he Is alone with the child. 2 What the parent . says will be doubly effective if the child does not reel that no. is being shamed and . ridiculed and that he must therefore reject everything his elder has to say in an effort to res cue his threatened self-respect. Sometimes when the child must bo corrected on the spot one may speak to him In a whispered aside I that does not draw attention to him. I Almost always he appreciates this ! consideration by doing as he is told. Alone with him, if the parent Is I at all tactful and kindly, he may say almost anything ana ue sure mat tho child will permit himself to be influenced by it, That this is much the best way in which to make what ever criticisms are. necessary must be obvious. The only reason that parents over do otherwise is that they act thoughtlessly or on the impulse of their own irritations. Yale Adopts New Athletic Plan; Big Cuts Listed NEW YORK, May 27 (ff) Yale's athletic right-about face caught the college sports world unawares today and left it astonlBhea and, perhaps, nlldly aghast as well. Only scattering continent on old Eli's plan of sharp curtailment of Intercollegiate competition In favor of intra -mural sports, was available as most college heads preferred to i take "time out" and study the re-: port. - . What comment there was, how ever, was distinctly favorable al-! though here and there a dissenting 1 voice was heard. j Major points In the new policy, ; designed to go Into effect, partially j at least, in 1033, follow: Reduction in number of football games to five and with major and traditional opponents only. ! Free admission of undergraduates to all contests and reduced prices to alumni and public with endow-1 ment fund to cover athletic ex- i penditure. j No organized pfactce In sports out of their normal season. I No scouting even, If opponent! continues to scout Yale. 1 ' Substantial cuts In varsity squads and number of junior varsity teams and elimination of class teams and 100-pound football team. AU students eligible for house teams, ' regardless , of Scholastic standing; amateur coaches only for these teams. For several years, colleges have been seeking to de-emphaslze sports but none of the plans put Into prac tice thus far have been as drastic as that proposed for Yale. Howard Jones, Yale alumnus and head football coach at the Univer sity of Southern California, said ho thought the alumni mjay react un favorably to the plan.. . He mado It plain ho was speaking as an "alum nus and not In behalf of Sou thorn California." Steven Cunningham, graduate manager of tho University of Cali fornia at Los Angeles, said '"wise guidance rather than curtailment 1b what competitive athletics in col leges and universities need."

Is Impossible, Dr. Mudge Says DENVER, M&y 27 (P) Isolation of the United States is Impossible practically and wrong morally, Dr. Lowls Beymour Mudge, of Philadel phia, retiring moderator of the Presbyterian church In the V. S. A., said yesterday In 1i!b sermon open ing the 144th general assembly. "Isolation as far as possible from the rest of the world as long has been our normal' policy. Suggested by George Washington In his fare well address, crystallized by us In the Mjonroe doctrine, and preached by statesman after statesman, iso lation declares that as a nation wo have neither vital relationship ,nor pressing responsibilities outside our own borders. "We need to be aroused to the fact that isolation Is impossible for us practically and wrong for us morally- "Wo need to realize that our pro per attitude toward, the league of nations, the world court, the Hague tribunal, peace treaties and disarm ament conferences and the' like should not be how much can wo keep out thereof, but how can we give help therein.", "Those who say the presont wave of lawlessness is due to the world war or the eighteenth amendment are Ignorant of our history," said. Dr. Mudge. "Thje truth Is that our fathers ate sour grapes and their children's teeth are set on edge. Many of those who assisted In the organiza tion of the thirteen original colonies selected what laws they would obey and what they would disobey. As their successors In wave after wavo of emigration swept westward over the mountains, establishing frontier 1 after frontier, they too in the per sons of the explorer, tho trader, the first settlor, frequently took with) j them such of our laws, as they pre ferred and loft the others behind.
