IIJTRonu5TION—Jesus is yeareshnted
in the Gospels as the greathealer
of men's bodies, .as ('e11 'asof their
souls. A ge relation ago it was custdin•
cry to say that miracles cannot .flap'
pen, anll that the miraculous" sures
reported in the gospels discredit the
whole gospel narrative, The attitude
ofthoughtful and scientific men new
is completely different,. No one fadav
can .reasonably deny that Jesus' per.
formed cures which seemed to his con
temporaries. to be miraculous! But we
are not to 3uppose'that Jesus healer
men miraculotisly `in virtue of hes
unique -power. end posit:on as Son of
God. He commanded and expected'
, his disciples also t' be healers, ,and
"mi<raclee" of healing have been per
termedinall ages, including ,. ,T own.

tianity: In the light of modern know],

in maintaining that the Law of Moses
is not binding upon them, but it was

count for most of the•troubte known

The latter is
the more commoner of the two It
makes gear shifting more. difficult.
Backfire Causes
Backfiring may mean the sticking
of an intake valve at times, but a
more likely accurate diagnosis is, too
lean a mixture at the carburetor. It
shows up best in idling and acceler-
ation when the engine is cool.

read:-
"The result is that we have ta:lcen,
in 1930 such a lead in the exporl• of

nowhere. Nor is it a lead confined
to any .one partinular type of ma-
chine. It extends tc all—military,
commercial, and light airplanes; and
in the Coming year it will be stili fur-

ment of our designers and engineers
has been magnificently backed up' by

Inventor Claims Saying of
One -Third cm Fuel Costs
A fuel saving ofone-third Is claim-
ed through the -use of a small device
which has been perfected by 1)r. 8111 -
ler R. Hutchison, former' chief en-
gineer for Thomas A. Edison, accord-
ing to a report from New York. The
mechanism will,also, it is claimed,
reduce the daner 'of poisonous ex-
haust gases and increasethe lite pf,
lubricating oils.
Tho Inventor says his device will
give a quantative analysis of the ex-
haust gases from the engtne to which
it is attached. By noting the amount
of unburned fuel passing out of the
exhaust, the motorist may adjust the
carburetor for butter gasoline con-
sumption.
The invention is attached to the
dash of any car without Tara equip-
ment except an auxiliary air valve on
the intake manifold. This is neces-
sary so that the driver can eject more
air into the carburetor as the indi-
c:.ter of the device shows carbon
monoxide la the exhaust gas.

(Chicago):
"When Columbus discovered Ameri-
ca, Antwerp was already a city with
centuries of history behind it; its
cathedral of Notre Dame; the finest
example of gothic architecture in )3e1-
Glum, was nearly 150 years old. Bat-
tered by centurlee of war,the cathe-
dral's 400 -foot spire has since towered
alone over the plains, of Flanders,
"But now It has a rival in Europe's
first sky -scraper, the twenty stories of
which make it the tallest commercial
building on the Continent. Built along
nearly typical American lines, but to
the design of Architect Van Hoenack-
er, itis the old world's first major ef-
fort to make its, cities grow upward in-
•etead of outward.
"Translated as aocui•ateiy as pos-
sible from the Flemish, the structure's
name becomes 'The Farmers Co-opera-
tive Building,' Its laver fibers, fol-
lowing the line of a street, swing ill a
yide semicircle. This portion of the
building is approximately the same
height as other new Antwerp come

the setback or tower just as on Ameri-

The Farmers Co-operative Building
Antwerp has taken the lead among
European cities. In London, for ex-
ample, the presdnt maximum height is
eighty feet with two additional stories
permitted for roofs, spires, turrets
and similar ornamental work. That
Antwerp should be the first continent-
al city to permit the erection of a tall
commercial structure is ' especially
noteworthy, because nosoity of the old
world has had a stormier career.
From the days when Spanish armies
were overrunning the Netherlands and
menders, Antwerp has been a fortdfled
city, almost ,continually harassed by
the armies of various nations,'
