Doa't Know Christian Standards
Ministers and many who profess
Christianity, assume thai, we are
living in a Christian civilization,
and bemoan the decadence of
"orals". As a matter of fact
allllons of people are neither
Christian nor do they hare any
conception as to Christian stand

timism which I think is created to
keep up our courage.
The ancients revered certain
traits which were called VNatural
Virtues". These were courage and
Justice. The state valued these
totalities because it tended to its
owm perpetuity. But where la
Greece? Where is Rome?-Phys
leal courage and legal Justice have
ever been able to save any nation
from destruction. There are
fn&nr today who are making a
fetish of these. Newspapers and
magazines are full of praise for
aay exhibition . of these traits.
Well and good, but that is not

There are - a - great many . also

the elements of a moral character

These lead to honor and the love

Christian virtues are those

how will . people reason when we
are getting careless and neglectful

Many are blinded by the desire
for material prosperity and In the
process are becoming moral and
spiritual beggars.
Religion and moral instruction
are the forces which will give as

the Golden Rule, the Beatitudes
and the Lord's prayer. But how
will people learn unless they are

Morals change if they are petty

The Real Thing in Top Coats
by
Michaels
Stem
Llama Tweeds are the newest thing
in soft, fleecy lightweight coats.
They have warmth without weight.
This new and exclusive fabric is
made fhm the wool of the South
American Llama, an animal which
resembles the well known Camel.
The Llama wool, however, is much
stronger than Camel hair, which of
course adds to it strength and wear.
Tailored by Michaels Stern. These
luxurious coats represent perfec
tion in the art of tailoring method.
Silk linings,, plain and leather but
tonseverything that goes to
make a fine quality top coat will
be found in their construction.
