Expurgating Quest Much to the apparent joy of Portland newspapers, the editor of "Quest", the Reed College paper, has been forced to resign because of his lack of conformity to orthodox stand ards, and a new editor has been selected to voice the expres sion of the student body in a manner that will not jar the sensibilities of public and faculty. "Quest" has been nn iconoclastic journal which means that it has devoted space to taking the bunk out of the established order, always a dangerous proceeding and as shocking to the Oregonian as the terra cotta dancing maidens on the frieze of the Unger building proved to be. "Quest" despite its sophomoric finality, had the merit of being well written and interesting, two very rare traits in either college or lay journalism. Its utterances had a vigor and freshness that more than atoned for its juvenile lack of judgment. Its mistake was in taking life too seriously, without a saving grain of humor, for seriousness appeals to intolerance as well as begets it. It is always more or less dangerous to expose hypoency and overthrow idols, but the heretic who laughs usually escapes being sacrificed a fact that Quest should remem ber now that it is expurgated. How It Works The Anti-Saloon League is out with a defi'from its officials to the Oregon Prohibition Referendum corporation, which seeks a national referendum upon prohibition and at the same time lands a wallop upon the candidacy of Senator Robert N. Stanfield for re-election, despite the latter's signing the pledge after the Baker episode lind becoming a "militant dry." The League declares : "United States senators virtually mako the appointment ot Icdcral Dftlce holders In tliolr stutcs, and wo have found that appointments made by senators who nro not personally In sympathy with prohibi tion are making a mockery oC the prohibition law. The remedy lies in the election to office of men who are In sympathy with tuo law and who will do alf in their power to secure the observance and enforcement of the 18th amendment. At the same time Admiral-General Andrews, in charge of the federal navy and army enforcing prohibition . has de manded that the federal government impose a tax upon beer, which is being manufactured and shipped in trainloads from eastern breweries, as a means, both of raising revenue and an aid to enforcement. All of which shows how prohibition is prohibiting after over five years of enforcement. ECOND WIVE By VIOLET DARE Til 12 HAND OIVIWTK "That's a luxury I can't afford," fihQ told herself, surveying the trny "but I can cqlebruto tonight, alnoo I've found my first job." A ruerul little smile crossed her face ns sho thought of Billy and .Tunny, and the wny In which they weio prob ably dining. Sho mulled anln at thought of Bub Randall, and the dinner bIiq would have h"d If she had dined with him. "Jlut for mo this fa bettor," she told hcinelf. "And even though I am poor, the future looks Interest ing." Within a week after being en gaged by Mrs. Lindsay ns nurse maid for Madeline, Marie wtifl es tablished In n small room on a side street only n few blocks from the Lindsay's Fifth ovenuo home. It amused her that, although she was In reality n governess for the Httlo girl, Mrs. Lindsay always re ferred to her position ns that of nursomnld, nnd contrived to inako It ns menial a position as ponlblo. Tho room wli it'h she had found was very mnall, and not well fur nished: the bed was narrow and uncomfortable, nnd the blankets were lnartcn,unto; on cold nights Marie found it necessary to ndd her winter coat to them, and oven then sho was not warm enough. There was only one chair, n small, hard ono, and the on window op ened on a court, so that daylight never penetrated It, nnd Iho noise from nil tho other npaiiments In the huge building rang through It. But Aliuie refused to bo dis couraged by discomfort. Tho fact that sho was imylng her own way, made un for everything. Tho fact that Mrs. Lindsay was making nn effort to raise herself socially to tho levet where Muriel herself really belonged frequently gnve rise to amusing situations. One afternoon Marie had taken lit tic Madeline to walk in Central Park. They returned at tea time, and were half-way up the wide stairway leading to the socond floor, when Mrs. Lindsay and some guests came out of her boudoir, "Of course, I don't know exact ly when we'll sail; not till at leitst a month after we're mar ried," a familiar volco remarked. "I think It's perfectly absurd to go abroad on your honeymoon whin you'ro Inclined to be seasick." Marie turned suddenly limp. It was Janny's voice! Janny, talking about her marriage to Billy! Marie had thought that she was accustomed to the thought of 1311 ly's marrying this other girl; she had told herself over nnd over again that he had changed so that he wasn't the same person at alt. that ho wasn't the man whom she had mnrrled, nnd with whom sho had spent those few radiantly hap py years. Hut now she felt that she could not sland having him marry Janny. It was ns If sho had never faced that prospect before "Just a moment, dear," sho miir mured, nnd caught Madeline by the hand. Mrs. Limt&iy was talking now, fairly cooing over Janny. "Vou'ro very wise, of course a mnn couldn't help adoring you even though you did suffer ninl de titer," sho excl'tlined. "But I think you'ro quite right." "Oh, Bill's alt tight; I'm sure of his love!" Janny boasted, "llo's al ways been crazy about me." They gut Into tho little elevator mat was ino a non bon box, and as thoy were curried down to tho first floor Mario pulled herself to gether nnd even managed to smile as she and Madeline went on to elajyestsale m the world- because Sir Thomas J, Lipton grows, picks, sorts, grades, and blends on his own estates in Cey lon the fines t ten known to nature and man and packs it for you in moisture-proof tins with all its onginaltragranceand freshness! whit itum I Mil .i.l A the third floor, Mrs. Lindsuy came to the nursery later, while Made' line was having her supper, and wandered aimlessly about the room, pausing to find fault with Madelines table manners occasion ally. She never came to the nursery Marie had discovered, unless she' wanted her husband to find her there when he came up to pay his late afternoon visit to his young daughter, and Maile was shrewd enough to see that she always man aged to whcddle some new gift out of him after such times. Today she was inclined to try to impress Marie. "I had such a delightful time this afternoon with the girl who's going to marry Billy Lane," sho remarked. "Janny's charming, such a pretty girl, and so clever. She'll make him a wonderful wife. She's just insisting on taking him abroad she can see that he needs It. I un derstand that this first wife didn't do a thing for him socially, but Janny will!" Marie, recalling the fact that It was she herself who had had fam ily behind her, and Billy who had had nobody smiled to herself. She had never cared for society, and neither had Billy until after he made his big financial success. So far as that was concerned, Janny had never penetrated beyond tho outer fringe of the Four Hundrod, and could never hope to bo admit to to the houses where Marie had been at homo since childhood. "I'm going to make Herbert take me abroad," Katherine Lindsay went on. "I've got to go somewhere and I'm sick of Palm Beach; there is nothing cxolusive about it, abso lutely everyone goes there "how. We could go on the boat with Billy and Janny, and have heaps of fun." "And wo'd go too!" exclaimed 'Madeline delightedly. "I'd love that, wouldn't you, Miss Lane?" "You're not by any chance relat ed to Bill Lane, are you?" Mrs. Lindsay asked her sharply. "It's a common enough name, of course, but " Function of Church To Build Character Fereshetian States "The chief function of the church is to strengthen the char acters' of men und to make them staunch and true before the bar of their couscfonceg und of their God. Unless the church does that it fails ia its mission." This was the statement made by Itev. Martin Kereshetian In his sermon before hia congregation at the local Uni tarian church Sunday morning. "It is easy to have faith in Uod and mua when o:te is prosperous, happy and healthy," he said, "It is caey to believe in God when one's conception of God Is not challenged. However, we stand today at the c rots-roads and each muet be able to satisfy his own conscience, it those cannot satisfy others." Itcv. Mr. Ferei hotiau compares the religious faith of various per sons lo the strength and weakness of trees aa they tiro rooted in the ground. On his recent trip east, from which he returned last week, he had seen terrific windstorms iu Salt Lake City and in Pennsyl vania. In the former place the tree, having shallow roots, were blown over by the wind, but in Pennsylvania the trees, not being irrigated at the surface as In bait Lake, were able to survive a heavy gale. "So It is with the faiths of many," he said. I "Oh no, I'm not," Marie replied quickly. Well, that was true enough you weren't related to a man after you'd divorced him, evon though your heart would always be In his keeping! Tomorrow A Queer Turn of Affairs lie opposed stimulating church attendance through entertain merits not ot a religious nature, "for the cljurch must not be de generated for the sake of numbers and false popularity." Touching on the subject of boys and girls, ltev. Mr. Fereshetian otutcd, "I have faith in our boys und girls of today. In spite of much adverse criticism the aver ago boy or girl has a high sense of fairness and justice. They have mare real modeely and courage and virtue than many are williug to admit. "So with the older generation. There may not bo much faith in creed, dogmas and mediaeval the ology, but there is a greater amount of vital, living religion as expressed In service, honesty and unselfishness. "On the train I have listened to men diseasing the new methods of making moonehino, but in a short while thoy would ehift to their heart and soul burger and discus religion, God and immortality. "And here is the opportunity of the church. Instead ot beating the drums ot hate and sectarian bigotry, they can join together In a divine symphony. Instead of frittering time and antiquated doctrines, they can help solve the problems of life which beset so many. Instead of discussing the nature ot the streets ot heaven aft ed death, they might better aid in looking alter the filth, pestilence ana wars upon the earth here and now. "So all thinking men must de-, fine their positions. Orthodox, moJernist and liberal must eaflt mUq all fur what is the ultimate truth, no matter If the truth will do away with church buildings or irganizat!ons. "It is not the letter, but thj dpirit that counts, and only the truth can serve. To this end Jesus taught, for it He lived, aud be cause ot it He died. Let us then be true followers ot Him and with his gospel burning in our bones, each give his life consecrated that the future may be blessed with a finer civilization because we have lived and served. "Without God civilization is doomed, with creeds about Jesus aud without His spirit in our lives, Christianity will die out the church must bo able to meet the challenge to falt!i, and in a church like ours each man must face his conscience and his God." "One might wish that the soeu lar press had sent to the general convention of the Episcopal church at New Orleans, reporters familiar with ecclesiastical terme. as this was the cause of much criticism of some of the reports sent out," Rev. H. D. Chambers of St. Paul's church of Salem, recently return ed from the convention, told his audience at the church Sunday morning. "It was made to appear," he said "that there was a fight bet.veen 'high' and 'low' churchmen. In fact there was not one such fight dur ing tho convention, such party linee being eliminated at least for a time. The votes on all matters were divided between ull grades of thought. "At no time did modernism and fundamentalism appear in the discussions. "Much was said about the case of Bishop Brown, and some not to the credit of the house of bishops, it wan made to appear as If the church was persecuting this man The fact is that it was the other way around. Bishop Brown arrived In New Orleans 10 days ahead of the convention and rented a hall and spent much monoy In advertur ing sensational lectures. Each dele gate to the convention was sent much literature, some most abusive. "This dear old saintly man, as he was made to appear in tho pub lic press, went about as a roaring lion, until tho house of bishops was forced to call up his case and dispose of it, and even in the vote there were bishops who voted in the negative because thoy thought the bishop should be let alone." Much time was spent at tho con vention. Itev. Chambers stated, on the revision of the prayer book, "but it will take years before the revision is completed. Some seem to feel that it should bo "brought up to dato and somo of the old time theology omlted, and In the main this was done, as for example the elimination of tho word obey from the marriage service "Also," he said, "the tendency was to shorten tho services by mak ing parts more permissive than mandatory. The 10 commandments were shortened but not changed. Provision was made for reading the fourth, 'Remember the Sab bath day to keep It holy and omit ting the rest of it. "Time would fail to tell of all the legislation and of all the social events. The hospitality of the south was quite wonderful, as il lustrated at the opening service held in a beautiful park. There was an immense crowd and about '25 mosquitos to each person. Boys went about with sprayers filled with liquid which, when spun vd on the ankles and hands, kept tho insects from bothering. As one there mid, the south could nut guarantee tho weather or tho mos quitoes, but it could guarantee the Hospitality. "The convention met In what is called up town, or the white quar ter. This section Is entirely dif ferent from the old quarter, as It has wide streets and beautiful homes. While we were there It rained some nnd was hot some und tho mosquitoes wero on the Job all tho time. However, it wa a fine convention and much was accomplished.
