FEW LEAVE WILLS
Seemingly, Expectation of Death
Is Not General.

’■■'ll'
Man Who Has Only a Small Estate to
Leave la the Most Apt to Think
That a Legal Document
Is Not Necessary.
M
There are two reasons why people
put off the making of a will. In the
first place, as Cicero long ago (silnted
out. “no one is so old as to think
that he may not live a year.” If It
be winter, the average man, of any
age, is sure that he will carry on to
see the robins return and to breathe
fresh life with the spring; and in
summer he knows full well that he is
not destined to pass out until he has
harvested this year's garden crop. It
was so in Cicero's time; It is today.
Death is never imminent; we take a
dtty off to attend the funeral of the
man whose desk was next to ours in
tlie office, and returning from the cem­
etery we say to ourselves: “I ought
; to put my affairs in shape so that my
wife will be all right in case anything
should happen to me.” But we do not
do It
“I’m right in the midst of
things now,” we say. “In another ten
years I’ll have something worth writ­
ing down in a will. Then I'll want to
think the matter over carefully and ar­
range a fair division between my wife
and the children and the relatives;
but It’s hardly worth while troubling
about now.” The man in the Scrip-
tures Is typical of most of US.
“Things are going well with me,” he

j night his soul was required of him.
And the second reason why will
making is not popular Is because there
is a general impression that a will Is
a luxury for the rich. It is exacted
that Mr. Million, when he dies, will
leave his estate carefully guarded by
a long legal document; but the man
who has nothing but a house and lot
and $500 In the bank assumes that it
isn't enough to bother the court about.
So he dies, and his wife, who might,
under a proper will, have entered into
the enjoyment of ills estate at once,
with very little legal formality, finds
herself compelled to give bonds, and
go through an immense amount of red
tape; and is fortunate if she is not in­
volved In a family feud before the ne­
gotiations are completed. Even if she
comes through safely, she has paid
more than she can afford, in fees and
charges—all of which would have been
largely obviated by a proiter will.
The rich man’s estate will stand ft.
Tltwre will be enough left for his heirs
even after the courts and lawyers are
through. A will for him Is more or
less of a luxury; but it is a necessity
to the man of small means; ami the
smaller the estate the more essential.—

In2000 Counties This Month
The Forces of the Church of Christ
Will Gather To Face the Facts
N 2000 counties in the United States the pastors
and laymen of 30 great denominations will meet
in conference this month.
It is the kind of conference that generals hold
before a critical engagement; that business men
hold before entering a new market. A conference
of judgment, not emotion; a clear-eyed facing of
the facts.

A Survey that Business Men Must Admire
For more than a year hundreds of workers have been
quietly engaged in making a scientific survey of the mission
fields, and of America county by county.
The facts developed are startling. No su^h picture of
America’s religious situation has ever before been drawn.
On the basis of these surveys thirty Protestant de.
nominations are uniting in a

Nation Wide Cooperative Campaign
Each of the thirty denominations has its own “For­
ward Movement” organized and officered. The Interchurch
World Movement is the clearing house for all of these.

*
It is the agency which the churches have created to
avoid duplication, to foster cooperation and make sure that
every man and dollar render the utmost service possible.
The month of April will be devoted to making
the facts of the survey known to America; in the week of
April 25th - May 2nd, will come a united simultaneous
financial campaign.
Whether You Are Inside the Church or Out
To every man and every woman who loves his country,
these 2000 county conferences are vitally important.
For the facts developed by this great survey show
Vividly what forces are at work in America—and what kind

No Other Light Car
Offers So Much
Unusual power and control, quick pick-up and extraordinary
acceleration to real speed, are features inherent in the Cleveland
Six and features with which Cleveland owners are delighted.

you what a good car the Cleveland honestly is.
HAD ITS BIRTH IN RIDICULE
The Cleveland is wonderful because
it is a splendidly developed .and
finished product, not a car rushed into
the market. Three years ago the
plans for production of this car were
far advanced. But, with war ap­
proaching, production and marketing
were delayed though experimental
and engineering work were continued
and test cars kept on the road. When
war ended, came the Cleveland.
Built in a fine big factory, with all
Explanation of Frequently Heard Ex­
pression “Giving Him a Roland
for an Oliver."
The expression “A Roland for an
Oliver,” meaning to match one incred­
ible story with another still more in­
credible, is derived from the fanciful
tales told by the old chroniclers con­
cerning the marvelous deeds accom­
plished by Roland and Oliver, the two
most famous palladins of Charlemagne.
It is said that these two wonderful
heroes were so marvelously matched
that neither was able to surpass the
other, and, accordingly to test their
relative superiority they met in single
combat for five consecutive days on
an Island in the River Rhine without
either gaining the least advantage over
the other. At the end of the battle of
Roncesvailes, it is said Roland was
actually wounded by Oliver, who had
himself received a death blow. From
the ridiculous manner In which the
adventures of these two heroes were
recounted, the saying, “A Roland for
an Oliver,” grew the matching of one
lie with one still greater.

LIGHT THAT PRODUCES SOUND
Incredible as it may seem, a beam
of light can be made to produce sound.
A ray of sunlight is thrown through
a lens onto a glass vessel containing
lampblack, colored silk or worsted, or
any like substance.
A disk having
slits or openings in It is made to re
volve swiftly in this beam of light,
so as to “cut it up,” thus causing
alternate flashes of light and shadow.
When one places his ear to the glass
vessel he hears strange sounds so long
as the flashing beam falls upon the
vessel.
A still more extraordinary effect is
produced when the beam of sunlight
Is made to pass through a prism so
as to produce what is called the solar
spectrum. The disk is turned and the
colored light of the rainbow is made
to break through it Now If the ear
be placed to the vessel containing the
silk or other material, as the colored
lights of the spectrum fall upon it
sounds will be given out by ths differ­
ent parts of the spectrum, and there
will be silence In other parts.
For instance. If the vessel contains
red worsted and the green light
flashes upon It loud sounds will be
given forth. Only feeble sounds will
be heard when the red and the blue
parts of the rainbow fall upon the
vessel. Other colors will produce no
sounds at all. Green silk gives out
sound best in a red light. Every kind
of material gives more or less sound
In different colors and no sound at all
In others.
