Not by the niurts, but by the tlnctors. ; Dr. Davis in only JJ, and Iiuh led it very active li'Jn hn presi dent of tli Chicago Theolouical hcniinary ami rc)igi"iis author.

"Of course I don't want to po," said the doctor, leaninjr back in his chair with a smile. "This is a mighty interesting world and 1 am havini.' a food time in it. Hut 1 am no more afraid of death than I am of walking through the door to this stiidv. Kor 1 know 1 shall have a spiritual body to do with as 1 please and I won't have to worry about the itches mid pains of this poor physical body." 1 Lucky doctor! He has the true religion, which takes no note of doniiia or of creed. Death? .Merely the passing from one room to another, f,"""'' uating from a physical plane that has worn out, to a spiritual plane that-means to be born auain. , , C1,A RKNC'K DARROW would shake his shaapy head and smile sardonically at the optimistic theologian. For Uiw yer Darrow is as certain of individual extinction after death as Dr. Davis is of immortality. . ". Who is right? No one knows. No one can know. Hut this much is certain. Those who cu believe as Dr. Davis believes get more happiness out of living and far less anguish at tho prospect of dying. Thy also have a philosophy whiclt makes life not only more endurable, but more understandable. MY. Darrow prides himself upon his reason, but in his con ception of things, life has no reason no meaning at best but a fortunate accident; at the worst, disillusion and wanton pain. AND KINAldiV, when one comes down to brass tacks if Lawyer Darrow is right, isn't he wrong? That is, if he is right about death, isn't he wrong about life? We ditln't intend to get in so deep when we started, but here we are the' machine must have its copy it's too late now to withdraw. .So we shall answer this (iiestion by asking another, to-wit: ' If physical death means complete extinction, isn't the only possible recipe for human happiness to believe what isn't true?

As a matter of fact, as far as the protective tariff is con cerned, there is no real party issue. Kven (iovcrnor Smith in the recent campaign endorsed the protective principle. The democratic platform ilid tl;e same. There are southern democrats today who favor a higher tariff, on certain products, than President Hoover. Hut the temptation to play the old political game is too strong for the, democratic leaders in Washington. They arc mouthing the same old moth-eaten phrases, not because they believe them, but because they think they may embarrass a republican administration. , ' It 'is really, an 'exasperating and -distressing spectacle. There is no foundation to this democratic tariff -offensive out sitle of partisanship, hyprociky and cant. ' The'sitniftion, however, promises to get worse before it gets better. And in that fact perhaps lies the best hope for a .satis factory solution. ..... FOIITIFIC I'FOl'IdC may become so disgusted with this entire tariff mess that they will demand the tariff be taken out of politics entirely, anil placed where it belongs, in the hands of a non-partisan (or bi-partisan) business commission. There is utterly no excuse for making the tariff a political football. President Wilson had the right idea, when he secured the passage of the tariff commission bill. Hut the republicans proceeded to do then what the demo crats are doing now play partisan politics -and the com mission virtually ceased to function, at least as the designers of the measure intended. Partisanship is bail enough when it is necessary. But when no actual conflict of opinion renders it- necessary, it becomes entirely discreditable, and should lie crushed by an aroused public opinion. Prohibition works all right. The growing indifference to oiatory proves the country is sobering up. The idea is to help the farmer as the manufacturer was helped. Hut when two men are fighting, how can you give both of them an unfair advantage? Fortl and (ieneral Motors planning expansion in Knrope pay no attention to the cry that the people are broke. They got rich selling to that kind of people. Historians examine a carved stone and picture an ancient civilization. Imagine some future savant judging our era by the fragment of a tabloid. 'y diet? Width and girth may save you some day when it near-sighted driver mistakes voti for a truck. KYl'AMORi:. Ill, June v tPv Juhn O.
