Such a surprise was in store for rite last Sun- day morning when I heard the rector of St. Paul's Anglican Cathedral, De- troit, deliver a sermon that to a man of pronounced temperance sentiment, wus full of thrills, I will give you an outline of that message. Unfor- tunately not being a shorthand writer I cannot report his serinofi in full, but what 1 set down here is word for word just as 1 received it. The Rector's first lesson was taken from Jeremiah, 18th chapter. The second lesson was from St. Luka. 11:37,51 verso. The text was Jere- miah 31st chapter, part of verse 13, as follows: "l will put my law in their inward parts and write it in their hearts." The preacher, iu speaking from this text in the fol- lowing language very emphatically showed the stand he takes on the question involved. lure is his mes- sage in part: "One of the greatest fallacies of to -day is that we place religion in a specut1 compartment, divarecti, so to speak, from all other activities of our lives. \V, don't mix it with our business, nor with our pleasure. We keep it strictly apart from anything of a secular nature. Now, with the Jew his religion and his daily life were one. There was a religious low for every little detail of his life. In fact, his whole life was ordered by the Almighty for the law of God was written on their hearts.

Now, many people must the belief in elle God, It is this be- have the idea that once a Bill is pass- lief and the he gave it as the ed their responsibility Ceases. Per- regulating principle of all his move - haps they do not realize that all law must have for its backing the moral support of the majority of the peo- ple. I believe that in the Volstead Act we passed a Bill twenty years in advance of the times. To -day the Detroit police estimate that there are 10,000 bootleggers in the city, that is one to every 100 of the .population. With whom are these law -breakers doing business? Just with those who voted against the Volstead Act? No! They are selling'bootleg stuff to many of those who voted for the Act, Now let us be honest about this mat- ter. We are a lot of hypocrites, nothing but hypocrites, for while we gave our sanction to the framing of this law, we violate that law by hav- ing liquor in our own cellars. Now we may as well look the truth in the face for once some of you wonder why 1 arn talking about this subject I must talk about it; I dare not keep silent, fur if I did I would be a cow- ard. The situation, as it now exists, cannot continue indifinitely. • This is no time to go around like an ostrich with our heads buried in the sand pretending there is no danger. Now the question is: Can the law be en- forced? Certainly it can, but not until the ringleaders of the bootleg- ger and some of the police lose their lives. Every clean man must wake up to a realization that this is a serious business and they must be willing to sacrifice their own lives, if necessary, in defence of our glorious American Constitution. The time for inertia is past. I repeat it is a ser- ious business, and I am convinced that in the enforcement of the law lives will be lost Already three po- ,lice officers have been sacrificed and several have been wounded. If needs be the entire machinery of the Gov- ernment must be exerted and the traffic must be stamped out. We need more men of the stamina of President Roosevelt, who, in his trav- els through the country, came upon some beer gardens wide open on Sun- day. He called the proprietors to- gether and quoted to them the law. They replied that they had never ob- served that law and that it was out of date. The President quoted the law again, called the police and dos- ed up the gardens. It takes a lot of courage to do a thing like that, but it is the only way to deal with the situation, and we roust take this bootlegging business in hand. Our police department is held up. Our policemen are discouraged. There are men in high positions who do not want to see the Volstead Act en- forced, and they are doing all in their power to hold the police back. If the Police Commissioner of De- troit wants to lose his job and lose it soon, just let him enfqrce the law; 25 per cent of the people of Detroit are absolutely opposed to the Act; 25 per cent. are anxious to see it en- forced, and 50 per cent are indif- ferent, If that 50 per cent would wake up to the danger, the bootleg- ging business would soon be stamped out. But a lot of us are parties to the traffic, even if we are not in league with the bootlegging business. We know the law; we disregard the law; we don't intend to keep the law. Do yon realize what that stand means? It means we will be over- run with the most vicious element in the underworld, an element that places no value on human life, that defies all law. Men, our homes are in danger. Do you want that? I cannot speak for all the Cathedrals, I cannot even speak for you, telt I can speak for myself, and I say I don't propose to be a partner with the bootlegger. In conclusion, the question for us to ask ourselves is, what is the right thing for me to do with my city in such a danger? God grant that our ansvrer will have a manly ring." Now, Mr. Editor, that was a strong sermon. If any comment is necessary I wotald merely refer to the fact that nearly all the bootleg whiskey going into Detroit goes from Canada.

This migra ti..e of Abraham was not by any the first going out swarm had left that busy hive, push- ing one another farther and farther west and east, all urged, as in our own day, by natural impulses, by hunger, by commerce, by love of ad- venture and conquest." Abraham's geing-out was prompt- ed by something entirely different and new. Pro, ious to this time Ab- raham had known only the gods wor- shipped by hi, people in Chalet' but now God had lovealed Himself as the Supreme One. and Abraham heard and answered the heavenly voice. It was the first step in a life-long obedi- ence to the umieen God. "Get thee rut of thy country, and from thy ki ndred, and from thy father's house, into a land that I will shew thee " Verses 2-3.—God's rewards. Promise upen promise is made to Abraham, any nee of them would in itself be ample compensation for leaving the present certainties'4 for the unseen and untried. I will make of thee a great nation. I will bless thee. I will make thy name great. Thou shalt be a blessing. I will bless them that bless thee, and curse, him that curseth thee. In the strength of these promises "Abraham departc out of Horan and went forth to go into the land of Canaan." After some twenty years God again appeared unto Abraham and renewed the covenant with him telling him he would be "the father of many na- tions," and that Sarah, his wife, "shall be a mother of Nations," (Gen. 17:16). The -8th chapter opens with a scene common th eastern travellers. Abraham is sitting, resting at mid- night in tho door of his tent. He noti- ces three travellers approaching and, with his customary hospitality, he runs forward and bids them welcome, entreating them to rest while he sees to the preparing of a meal for them. Thus in the guise of strangers did tht King of Kings come to Abraham and He was not denied a reception. "Let us not be forgetful to entertain stran- gers for thereby some have enter- tained angels unawares. Heb. 13:2. With further eastern grace "Abra- ham went with them to bring them on God put Ilis seal on the confidence He had previous to this placed on the character of the man of His choice. "Shall I hide from Abraham that thing which I do; seeing that Abra- ham shall surely become a great and mighty nation, and all the nations of the earth shall be blessed in him?" (verses 17-19). God in the person of the three travellers had talked face to face with Abraham and now he is moved to entrust him with His pur- poses. From Abraham is to spring a great nation so he must know how to guide it (Sodom, towarda which they were moving, was a wicked city and ia to be destroyed. God will riot leave Abraham ignorant of its doom but will draw out his nobler traits of character by this very confidence. Abraham pleads as for his very own life that the city may be spared but is shown that "except ye repent ye shall all likewise perish." As Abraham journeyed on the mighty men of the country took not- ice of his conduct and one said to him "God is with thee in all that thou doest," but God had yet to put Abra- ham to the supreme test of his faith. He called upon him to sacrifice his son, saying 'Take now thy son, thine only son Isaac, whom thou lovest, and get thee into the land of Moriah; and offer him there for a burnt offer- ing upon one of the mountains which I will tell thee of" (22:2.1 He went forth to do the Lord's bidding be- lieving that God would assuredly ful- fil His promise to make him a great nation. In the latter part of to -day's lesson (22:15-18) we have a repetition of blessings promised be- cause of this implicit obedience to God's command. Marcus Dods, D. D., draws from this life of Abraham the following beautiful conclusion: "Recognizing God, Abraham kneW that there was for men a great fu- ture. He looked forward to a time when all men should believe as he did, and in him all families of the earth be blessed. There, far back in the hazy dawn, he stood while tbe morning mists hid the horizon from every other eye, and he alone dis- cerns what is to he.

C. ti,,;; in Cal- cutta, pad the following Warm tri- bute.,tb the work of missionaries inl India: "If today our young men enrolled as national volunteers, as members of "Seva Samitie," are glad to spend their energy in the service of the poor and suffering—if they are glad to do eo, it is due very largely to the stimulus of example which the carriers of the Christian gospel to India set to them. Therefore in com- mon fairness, common gratitude, they should not utter a word of com- plaint against those, who from one motive or another, are doing service to their people. When 1 think of the enormous moral and spiritual good which by their example they have set to us it appears to' me that the con- version of a few dozens or hundreds of our people is nothing to weigh in the balance against the good done by them. "Doubtless of all the. glories of Christianity the gravest is that its devoted servants have considered the best way to spread their religion is not merely by talking about it, by distributing pamphlets or by such like activities, by bringing light where darlgness prevailed and by making the lives of the people better, richer and purer. In conclusion I ask my co -religionists, the Moham- medans and all others to regard the work, especially of the social and educational side, of Christian mis- sionaries not merely with sympathy, but as an institution which is entitled both to our gratitude of heart and to the fullest support in every possible way."

HOW much business may be gathered from the fact that in 1918 he made $98,000; gation was that the Commissioner had banked $100,000 in the preceeding four years. His salary is $7,500 a year. It was also 'shown that he had received a cheque for more than $12,000 from Allan Ryan, the stock broker, famous for his Stutz corner, and an honorary deputy police com- missioner. Ryan told Enright that the money represented the profit on a little gamble in which he had macle Enright a partner, but further in- vestigation revealed the fact that at ble lieutenant in the department to the head of the whole works.

Apart trom the numerous suggestions and in some cases the open charges that the Police Com- missioner is a grafter has been the feel that crime has been rampant in New York since Hylan became Mayor. At first Commissioner En- right sought to meet the newspaper outcry by the statement that the crime was an inevitable aftermath of war. Later, he blamed the ingur- ance companies who would take any beyond the general assertion that he did not maintain discipline in his force. It appears that some time ago a couple of detectives came upon a truck load of liquor and received $2,300 for letting it proceed on its business. Later they were informed that the liquor was the property or under the protection of a couple of police inspectors. Thereupon they disgorged $2,000 and were warned not to interfere again with this par- ticular bootlegger. They reported the matter to their superior, who in turn informer Commissioner En- right, but no action was taken until a few days ago when the facts having been made public the man who told Enright was dim -Maned and the two detectives were warned that they would be investigated by the depart- ment. The Commissioner is now faced with the task of offering an explanation of his inaction for two years when he was presented with Costigan was one of the beat - known officers in New Yerk and had won the nickname of "Honest Dan" long ago. When he was virtu- ally forced to quit there was an outcry which left the Commissioner unmoved. He appointed Mrs. O'Grady a police commissioner and when she resigned she said ehe did so because she received no support from him. She alleged that he pro- tected men of position. There were other resignatioes of detectives who had unwittingly taken action against men who turned out to be friends of the Commissioner. Another transaction that looked sinister was revealed in the last investigation. Inspector Hughes was a particular friend of Lieutenant Enright's, but curiously enough resigned ,soon after Enright became commissioner. He established a private detective agency, however, and went into the business of watching the docks. He found the steamship companies almost falling NEWEST NOTES OF SCIENCE The entire rim can. be removed from a new automobile wheel and partially collapsed when a tire is te be changed.
