Stanley Jones, an Eastern missionary of the Methodist church, is the author of the book, which is entitled, "The Christ of the Indian Road," and he gives some very interesting facts as to the present condition of Christianity in India and its prospects for the future Among his statements being the 'following: "Christianity may fail but Christ will win in India. The people of India are accepting Christ, but not the forms of Western Christian ity. ? They are making an amazing and remarkable discovery; vis., that Christianity and Jesus are not the same that they may have Jesus without the system that has been built up around Him in the West. The suggestion as to this difference is not new; it has been said before. The thing that is new is that a people have noted the distinction and seem inclined to act upon it. It is a most signifcant thing 'for India and the world that this great people of amazing spirit ual capacities are seeing with remarkable insight that Christ is the tenter of Christianity, the utter commitment to Him and catching His mind and spirit and living His life constitute a Christian. This "realization has remarkable potentialltes for the future religious history" of the whole Tace." - Mr. Jones quotes'1 the principal of a Hindu college as saying, iThere is growing up in India a Christ-cult, entirely apart from the Christian Church' its theology, creeds and dogmas "almost under its opposition. The leading ideas of that "cult are. love, service and self-sacrifice." He explains that although quite widespread it is as yet not organized; that things are not propagated in India by blocked-of f organization as in the West. The method of propagation has been by ideas catching from life to life and thus silently leavening the yrhole. This Christ-cult has thus become more like an atmos phere than an organization. " This Methodist missionary declares that we have added a good deal to the central message of Jesus; that we have emphasized things that He did not think important enough : even to mention, so far as the record of the Gospels discloses, "while the things upon which He put His emphasis we have $ minimized or neglected entirely; that there is no reference tin the Gospels, for example, to the so-called "fall of man," :and Jesus is not recorded anywhere a3 outlining our elabo rate "plan of salvation." He not only promises nothing for 'mere profession of belief in Him or even in His message or : power or blood, but, on the contrary, unmercifully condemns those who profess what they do not live, and declares that ' they are none of His. - J " The people of India are not the only ones who are insisting upon accepting Christ freed from theological dogmas The same thing is happening among the intellectual Readers of China and of Japan, as we have been told by Y. M. C. A. leaders recently in Salem . ' And the same thing is happening in Turkey and in other Moslem countries. How many Statesman readers have noted the recent article of "Pussyfoot" Johnson in Henry Ford's newspaper, the Dearborn Independent, in which he shows the terrible things in Constantinople that are being carried on by , : so-called "Christians," such as saloons, brothels and gambling a dens, to the intense disgust of the Moslem people of that I great metropolis ?. t V ' In that article, "Pussyfoot" Johnson speaks of the high ; service that is being rendered to the whole of the Near East and the other countries in that section of the world by the service institutions of the Christian missionaries; the schools, hospitals and missionary stations but which are referred to as "missionary and not as "Christian by the native popula tions. '--7 ' . "'':.'' - ' v ' I' And progressive, educated, awake, intelligent America is ' brushing aside the rubbish that the centuries have gathered &bout,the figure of the lowly Nazarene;' rising above the fogs ; and mists of the past to see Him as He truly is; see Him as He resists in the wilderness the promptings of our common fleshly, physical, selfish, sin-ioving nature and overcomes all of its temptations, emerging triumphant from the ordeal in t the power of the spirit ; see Him as He "goes abouj doing : good," healing the sick, feeding the hungry, lifting up the ' fallen, and preaching the gospel of righteousness, love; unsel - f ishness and service; see Him as He faces His brutal accusers i with no manifestation of hatred or anger or resentment, who r when He was reviled, reviled not again"; and lastly, see Jlim on the cross, not hurling anathemas ' at His murderers, but praying, ''Father, forgive them ; they know not what i they do." - . .

THE INDIAN ROAD MAY GET A The Royal Ann cherry growers may yet get a cent more a pound of protection for their product Should easily get it. The present tariff law for the first time in the history of such laws contains elastic clauses Clauses that allow the president to increase duties 50 per cent, upon a showing of insufficient , protection against com peting articles of foreign growth or manufacture. The tariff duty on cherries raised by the president to 3 cents a pound, upon this showing, The showing is easy, to any one with a reasoning mind. That is not enough protection ; the cherry tariff should be at least 6 cents a pound. It would have been, but for the pussyfooting of the maraschino cherry junta. This outfit got itself protected by a 40 per cent ad valorem duty on maras chino cherries, but left the growers at the mercy of French, Spanish and Italian growers of ries, who are able to send their manufacturers of this country pound, even in sulphur or brine. President Coolidge ought to outrage ; but the limit is only to protective duty And congress ought to wake ing the law a schedule or an item at a. time And there is no better place to begin than on cherries The cherry item is a fraud on the face of it. THE FARM A FACTORY William J. Hale, one of America's greatest chemists; a man with a vision, predicts that chemist That in this way every farm That in the use of by-products farming will become far and away the greatest of our That our paper will be produced from cellulose grown on our farms, and that in very chemistry, will be brought up I here is a lot to this.

And it is very have such a fine setting for the people who have brought Oregon up to its present stage of development, and are handing it on to posterity. The Statesman has recently apple outlet that Oregon ought to have; especially for the Chinese trade, which is all but unlimited. Last year, Wash ington shipped 81 car lots of dried apples, Idaho 33, and Oregon only 16. The Salem district should take the lead in bringing this outlet up to 100 cars, and a great deal more, for Oregon.

" Our cherry growers might con ceivably, by getting advantage of the elastic clause of 'the tariff law, and then going -down the line for amendments an item or a schedule at a time S They might conceivably start something that would, make Ore gon famous; that would do away with the idiotic precedent of tak ing up the whole tariff law or no part of it. That silly precedent has always made for the unsettle raent of business for months and years at a time W And it has kept the tariff ques tion a political issue, whereas it is of right and ought to be a busi ness matter, and never sectional. "m Doing better; decidedly. Salem Y free employment office sent 92 people to jobs last- week, though 171 applied. The jobs will likely soon catch up with the jobless. The people who think Salem 'is overbuilding in the way of new homes forget the constantly in creasing forces at the paper mill and paper converting plant; the people who are being put on and to be put to work ' at the linen mills; the many new smaU fac tories that are adding to the din ner bucket "brigade, and a hun dred other direct and indirect lines that furnish new jobs, and bring new people. And this is go ing to keep on keeping on. Salem must soon be building two new homes a day, instead of a frac tion more than one a day, as now. Then three a day. This matter of growth, in such a country of diversity, once it is solidly start ed, as in the Salem district, is cumulative; . like a snowball roll ing down an easy grade.

() 9 rUOECe Smithvnc-t TaBi SHE WILL GET BY Home is where the heart is or ought to be, of course. But what type home is the 1926 model?- Almost never a roomy house with spreading floor space, many windows and cheerful kitchen harboring a fat and glowing stove! Occasionally a little house in the suburbs, with every conceivable mechanical appliance with which science has contrived to lighten human labor and to gratify hu man desire for physical comfort! Most often a scrap of an apart ment, convenieniently appointed and so tiny that were one to make the attempt to swing the proverb ial cat by its tail one would cer tainly dash out the poor feline's brains! What does the resultant "con densed housekeeping" signify? Idle women! What do idle women presage? Discontented wives and philander ing husbands! At least this is the conclusion to which Margaret Culkin Banning has come after due consideration of what is commonly referred to as the "divorce evil." "The average woman no longer earns her keep nor her husgand's devotion!" flatly declares Mrs. Banning. "I am not referring to the moth er who Is raising a family or to her ambitious sister who is combining a professional with a matrimonial career. I even exempt a few women who are finding in the run ning of their menage plenty for their hands to do and sufficient interest for their minds. I am talk ing of the average wife of today. childless or with children grown up and away from her, who mulla over her morning's work, finding it totally uninspiring; the wife who, when this little is done, at tempts to fill the empty hours of long days with bridge, movies or gossip.". x . We cannot, go back to the old days and -way of-our grandmoth ers. We .would not want to. We must go on and in the new order of things work out oar own salva tion. However, the' mdern. wife may make readjustments that the old fashioned one, -untrained to think for herself, conld not do. When love fails to prove an en during glory to the modern wife, unfenced by convention, need not die nor 'go mad with a broken heart. She can. step into the wide open spaces and fight things out with life. And preventive "meas ures are. wise. The modern wife will not expect too much, of her husband. She will not attempt to wholly, possess him. " She will ac cept what Is deservedly tiers and will give in proportion as she re ceives.

"Let me see,' mused the exper ienced modiste. , "You'll want a direct testimony suit, a cross-examination gown. . and something dainty and clinging to faint in."

They were laid off for the sum mer and took refutes in a little house loaned them by a sympa thetic friend, and did their own housekeeping, such as it was. When the fall season opened up, the agent wired them: Swanson Bros. Trained Duck Act Summit, N. J., "Have booked you for a full week Far. Rockaway, opening next Monday." But this was the melancholy an swer which came back collect: "Impossible to accept your of fer. Have eaten the act." "Why don't you call me a donk ey and have done with it?
