Tihis is a temperance lesson but the word temperate applies to other things than the use of intoxicating liquors. We can be intemperate in every de- partment of life's activities. In vers - 16 -21 Jesus teaches about the sin of covetousness and if we read His words about the things which defile a man (Mark 7:20-23) we see that cov- etousness is in that list, bracketed with thefts and deceit. A man applied to Jesus to have Him settle a matter in dispute between him and his brother. The latter had through . eed apparently, witheld the lbrother''s portion of the fat'heris es- tate it was for this he appealed to Jesus. In his reply Jesus states that it is not his business in life to interfere in the private affairs of men. He was a teacher of the right principles that guide in all life's af- fairs. So we have him saying to the ..i.:IEARhflNf • SP ?ia33.C" nN� / Goodness GooD ma- terials — utnzost care and cleanli. ness — fresh and full flav- ored: These are what good. ness means in WRIGLEY'S. Try it when you are tired and hungry and see how quickly it peps you up. Inexpensive— Satisfying. WRIGLEYS CHEWING GUM applicant and others listening; "Take heed, and beware of covetousness; for a man's life eonsisteth not in the a- bundance of the thing& which he pos- sesseth;" Jesus used the incident to teach the parable of the rich man and his ov- ersupply of grain. This rich man's situation is not an isolated one. As wealth increases perplexities arise and chase away sleep at times. The ques- tion ever to the fore is how to secure gilt -edge investments? The man in the parable had an easy solution com- pared to many of his fellows of to- day. What shall I do? This will I do. And having come to the decision to build more and greater barns to house his stuff he dreams of taking his ease all the rest of his days which he sees as a goodly number. One thing never mars his dream—the un- certainty of life is not in all his thoughts. There is One with whom he had not reckoned and a voice speaks to him and breaks the contin- uity of his worldly thoughts. "Thou fool, this night thy soul shall be re- quired of thee; then whose shall those things be, which thou hast provided?" The whole 'outlook on life of both the man who would not divide the inherit- ance and this rich man was how to get and how to keep. In thinking of and working for self and self alone man overlooks the fact of God. "The earth is the Lord's and the fulness thereof." If man would be rich to- wards God be must keep ever in mind while engaged, in legitimate business, social enjoyments and all activities that "man does not live by bread a- lone but by every word that proceed- eth ,eut of the mouth of God." From this parable Jesus proceeded to teach His disciples that "life is more than meat," and the body is more than raiment." After his dis- course along this line Peter spoke up and inquired if this teaching was for them alone or for all. He told him that they were stewards to whom he had entrusted his teaching and that they must approve themselves faith- ful and wise; faithful to•their Mas- ter, •by whom this great trust is re- posed in them, and faithful to their fellow -servants, for whose benefit they are put in trust; and wise to improve an opportunity of doing ,hon- or to their master. Further he opened up to his dis- ciples and gave them an insight into what would befall unfaithful and treacherous stewards. Those that have greater capacities of mind than others, more knowledge and learning, more acquaintance and converse with the Scriptures, to them much is giv- en, and their account will be accord- ingly. — Condensed from Henry's Bible.

When the elections for the first par- liament were being held, he was nom- inated as a candidate, but it was in- durated to thim that his chances for election would •be improved if he would give up his preaching and lec- turing on Christianity until the elec- tion was over. He is reported to have rejected the advice given, on the ground that it was a matter of in- difference to him whether he was elected to the Diet or not, but that it was very important that he should continue to preach the Gospel He was duly elected and continued to be a member of the Diet until he was appointed by the Emperor as a mem- ber of the House of Peers. Mr. Ebara's case was not peculiar. Another of .the best known Christian laymen in political life wasjr. Kat- aoka, a Presbyterian elder`," elected four times Speaker of the Diet. When he was a candidate for election 't was suggested to him that during the campaign it would be well if he resigned from the eldership in a Christian church. "No," he said; "I would rather be an elder in the church than "a member of the Diet." It meant much to the Christian cause that there were Christian men of such sterling character in polities. --From Fruits of Christian Missions in Japan. WHEN DELAYS OCCUR Bull Jones and his wife were on their way to his mother's for a visit. But a bed storm necessitated their stopping off enroute. "Mother will be worried sick," said Bill disconso- lately. Then Mrs. Bill had an inspir- ation. "How about telephoning? It will solve everything!" They did and matters were easily set- tled by Long Distance:. It ended the' worry. ROMAN BANQUETS Although Americans have the repu- tation of being the most extravagant people on the face of the earth, re- cords show that the rulers of ancient Rome lived in a manner that for luxury and ostentation far surpassed present-day standards. They loved to feast sumptuously and thousands of dollars were fre- quently spent on a single banquet. There were often as many as twenty- two courses to a meal. The meals were served with the guests reclin- ing on couches, while dancing girls, actors, musicians, acrobats, and so forth, entertained them as at a mod- ern cabaret. Everybody wore wreaths of flowers, and the servants sprinkled them liberally with scents, while the floor was covered inches deep with roses •or water -lilies. These rulers thought nothing of using jewel -stud- ded gold or silver plate at a banquet and then presenting the whole lote as souvenirs to their guests. Sometimes a chef had to have as many as eight joints of a single kind of meat on the fire at once, each at a different stage of its roasting, so that at whatever hour his master chose to dine one of the joints would be cooked to a turn. The wealthy kept game preserves around their villas where were to be found pheasants, flamingos, guinea fowl, peacocks, geese and partridges. The menus of one of these banquets makes extraordinary reading. There were sea -hedgehogs, oysters, mussels, and other shellfish, sea -nettles, sea - corns, both black and white, snails, thrushes with asparagus, duck and fowl of many kinds, hare, pork, beef, lamb, venison, boar's head, sow's ud- der, various vegetables, all kinds of sweets, and a great variety of fruit and nuts. Fish was a favorite dish with the Romans, sturgeon garnished with butterflies' wings being especial - ;y popular. The mansions of the wealthy class had built-in pools stocked with a live supply of various kinds of fish, and certain species were worth as high as two hundred and forty dollars apiece. The whole known world was search- ed for particular delicacies, and amongst the many dishes served at feasts were peacocks from Samos, grouse from Phrygia, cranes from Melos, kids from Ambracis, tunny - fish from Chalcedon, ass -fish from Pessinus, sturgeon from Rhodes, nuts from Thasos, acorns from Spain and oysters and scallops from Tarentum. Y Not only did the Romans purchase the best for their table, but they de- manded that their cooks prepare the different foods to a nicety. For in- stance, nightingales' tongues were supposed to be roasted twenty-three minutes. One extra minute on the roast was believed to spoil them com- pletely. They served pigs whole, from which when carved, live birds flew out, and hot sausages came tumbling after them. Small fish were served as though alive in a transparent sauce which looked like the blue Mediter- ranean. Some of the dishes were prepared more with a view to their appeal to the sense of sight than to that of taste. Thus, yellow peas were sprinkled with pellets of gold, or the lentils with rubies', or lumps of cloud- ed amber were served with brown beans. {For a delicate stomach such dain- ties as 'marjoram, figs, pickled locusts and pistachios were considered ef- ficacious. They were also adepts in the art of seasoning and used many varieties, such as fennel, parsley and honey (combined), pepper and rose- mary, ,garlie, mustard -seed, mint, dandelion, and vinegar. The wines were extremely potent, being scented or spiced. Sometimes pine cones were ,introduced, and some- times cinnamon,' or crushed roses. Drugs, too, were added; and a cer- tain mixture of white. wine, absinthe, honey, roses and iitrong-smelling spikenard, was much in faiv'or, while sleep -!bringing poppies were largely used. In hot weather snow was brought with infinite labor from the mountains to cool the drinks. Napkins were of even more leapport- ance in ancient times than at present.

There was Hermogenes, for example, who, when invited, because of his well-known proclivities, to a napkinless banquet, revenged himself by running off with the table -cloth. Foods, wines, scents and all else, were valued according to their rarity and costliness; and the waste of money was in itself a cause of pleas- urable excitement. It is said that some of the rulers actually fed their dogs on foie-gras, their horses on rare grapes, and their tame leopards on pheasants and parroquets. THE AVERAGE AMERICAN: A STUDY / The average American probably would be a man or woman around 40; born in the mid -West somewhere be- tween the Missouri Valley and the Al- leghanies and north of Tennessee. He would be living in a town --not the town of his birth—probably in an in- dustrial centre or possibly in the Fax West. He would have been educated in the common schools and somewhat in the high schools, would have joined some church, .typically the Methodist Church, in his youth, but would not be a regular attendant at church. He would think of the church in times Qf death and of the preacher only at weddings. He would be a member of some organization, a luncheon club, a labor union, the Masons, a fraternal insurance group, and his wife would also he engaged in some organized activity or club. He would have two children, both in school, who would go further into high school than he went, possibly early into college—some local college not ..more than sixty miles from the typical American's front door. He Would read the local daily news- papers, sport page first, the crimes next, ,the comic page after. Just be- fore election he would read the elec- tion news and an occasional editorial. He would not read books. Typically he would not read a book in five years. He would go to the movies. He would own a car, ride around at week -ends within a radius of seventy-five miles of his home and spend his !vacation within 200 miles of his home in his car, stopping only a day or two en route, passing from resort to resort and hone again living on his two weeks' pay and 'a week's earnings as he went. He would be a member sof a political party, but party ties would rest lightly upon him. In so far as government leaves him alone, he would let government alone. The gas- oline tax would bring him closer to the government than the income tax. He would require of government pav- ed roads, (lighted streets, pure water and as good 'schools as he could un- derstand for his children; pleasant parks, and law and order — which means that' he would want his vice entirely concealed, quite possibly ac- cessible but never obvious, so that he could ignore it. Being a family man of pretentions, he would wear ready- made clothes; his wife and children would buy their clothes ready-made. He would eat ready-made food. And the difference between the food of the average man and his more or less fortunate brethren would be precious little. Standardized foods make food variations difficult, as .astanrlard&za- tion also tends to create monotony in housing. His habit of moving about from house to house, from town to town, from State to State, reveals the un- ique differences between the average American and the rest of mankind. He is restless because he is charged with some quenchless spark of ener- gy. His race is youthful. This energy does not make him work harder than his brethren in other climes, but it makes him vastly curious and earnest. He cannot mind his own business. His own business is not enough for him. So he beats his 'wings against the bars of his cos- mos. He yells at ball games. He likes mobs for their noise and motion. He wants to leave the worldbetter than he found it. His .god is the spir- it of change. He laughs at tradition when he does not ignore it. Even' the local history of his .habitat forms no part of his life. He knows nothing of the heroes that have developed in the town where he lives" Landmarks annoy him. He tears down his !vil- lages, towns acid cities every thirty years, makes them over, not merely thumbing in new skylines and new streets, new business areas and resi- dential sections, but turning it all topsy-turvy. The down town shop- ping district of one decade is the shabby wholesale section of the n decade.

In religion, the average American feels the pull of no hereditary creed nor is he encrusted in the cult that goes with an ancient creed rooted in family tradition. His father may be a Methodist, his mother a Congrega- tionalis't, and he, himself, a Baptist or a Christian Scientist, and his chil- dren may have no religion or a dif- ferent religion for each child. If he is a Catholic, his roots are probably deeper than those of his Protestant friends. His father and grandfather are likely to 'have Ibeen Catholics, though sometimes only one member of the American family subscribes to the Roman faith. Even the Roman Church is hardly the stabilizing fac- tor in American life that it is in other lands. But certainly religion as the Churches represent it affords no an- chor to the unrestraint that is in- stinctive in the average American's attitude toward his environment. Party organization in America is able to frighten only a few and they control a sad minority in any elector- ate outside of the South, New Eng- land, Pennsylvania and New York. There seems to be some sort of an ex- ception in Utah ---why, the sociologist must exrplain. But speaking broadly, one may say that politically America is always on the move. We have few- er parties than we have religious creeds, but the average citizen has no more permanent attachment to his party than to his church. Now how will this average Ameri- can, rootless and footloose in his own land, associate with his neighbors in other lands? tV Political leaders all over America are beginning to realize that the American protective tariff policy is a foreign policy and not 'a domestic pol- icy; that our 'status andstanding,ing* in Europe at least, depend upon our tariff makers more than upon our diplomats. But this fact has not per- meated to the street. The average American kn'ows the about it. More- over, it is a difficult problem, this problem of the tariff and our foreign relations. It is not 'all (black and it is not all white, and the average man with a 'ballot before him must see things in black and white. He dis- misses as high -brow stuff the intrus- ion of theories about the 'tariff and foreign markets and the relation of our foreign markets to our world status. He has not realized that his sons may die on battle'field's for his ignorance. And probably a genera- tion or two moist pass before the av- erage American becomes as intelli- gent about foreign relations as the average Frenchman, German or Eng- lishman is. He is for peace, this !average Amer- ican, in times of peace. He subscribes easily to the doctrine's of the organiz- ed •advo'c'ates 'of peace. He can see that the reduction of armament saves taxes, but he also begins to bristle when any one assumes 'that America does not need the biggest navy in the world and he can see no affront to any ,other nation, nor danger to world peace, in American armament—to the teeth! He cannot put himself in the other fellow's !place when the other fellow fives across a wide ocean, speaks another Ianguage, lives in a more restricted economic world,, and has been bred to fear his foes. So the average American is for the World athe biggest navy Court and gg he can buy with low taxes!

SEAMAN-,KEN,T Sold in Seaforth by N. CLUFF & SONS quotas for volunteer enlistment for the army and navy when Wilson call- ed for troops before the draft act. Yet Kansas voted' for Wilson and ac- cepted the slogan, "Ile kept us out of war." And Utahbs vote was just tra- ditional Republicanism 'without any implications about peace. A leader with a powerful personality may take America either way when the nett war menaces. He is a born romanticist, your av- erage American; always he has found gold at thefoot of his rainbow. He has had something for nothing so long and so often that he believes in fair- ies. Evangelists move him in politics as well as in religion. Moral issues seem real. Indeed, until an economic need is stated in terms of a moral axiom, the average American is like- ly to reject it. Hence' he is a prey to demagogues, shut he finds them out, 'and having no sense of duty or attachment to them leaves them flat. Among the neighborhood of nations Uncle Sam remains an overgrown boy with youth and its faults and virtues in his heart. His youthful ardor has its dangerrs as well as its advantages in his association with mankind be- yond the borders of his own land. But in his own land he has 'been working out many experiments. He has tried "many inventions." He has given the world something worth while. How long will youth burn in his heart? Will it be another hundred years or does time move so fast ogle the whirling wheels of modern Iife that youth may leave him in this cen- tury? No one knows. But this much is sure, that without his restless feet wandering through the world of vis- ions, many paths (wouldhave remain- ed unbeaten, many way untried. Peo- ple (bound by traditions could not have established even the thirteen Colonies under their Constitution. A home -lov- ing people could not have explored and conquered a continent in three or four generations. Only youth dould have spread over that continent the vast network of wires and pipes and rails, and over it the vast blanket of credit with a debt that would have disheartened, a prudent, cautious*. thrifty people. But the average Am— erican rampant has done this miracle before which a man of an older ci've ilisation would have stood aghast and would 'have perhaps turned away.
