Why That Bad Back?
Is backache keeping you upset? Feel
all tired out—so nervous and dispirited
you can hardly keep going? Then look
to your kidneys! Your kidneys rid
the body of poisonous waste. But if
they lag, impurities accumulate and
poison the whole system. Then one is
apt to suffer backache, stabbing pains,
headaches,, dizziness, and other annoy-
ing kidney irregularities. If your kid-
neys are sluggish, help them with a
diuretic. Use Doan's Pills. They are
praised the world over. Ask your
neighbor!

DEVELOPMENTS IN
FUND ACTIVITIES
Recent major developments of the
American Legion campaign to raise a
$5,000,000 endowment fund for dis-
abled veterans and orphans of the
World war have been: Organization |
of the American Legion Endowment
Fund corporation to administer the
fund, selection of the Fletcher-Ameri-
can National bank at Indianapolis as
I depository for the fund, extension
>f the campaign to include every state
in the country and the final clean-up ,
campaign in the South.
National Commander James A.
Drain, announcing the formation of
the endowment fund corporation,
said that it was established solely to
administer the fund. It is not au-
horized by its, articles of incorpora-
tion to do anything else, he said.
“The corporation was created,” the
year the junior and senior leagues to-
ommander declared, “in order to pro- | gether raised $165,126 for local im-
ride absolutely for the safekeeping. | provements. Most of this money was

tone unturned to insure that the in-

At the same time, the campaign for-
the fund was extended from the
states in the South and Middle West,
where it was first launched to include'
every state. In the East it was ex-
tended into Maine,' New Hampshire,
Vermont, Rhode Island, Massachu-
setts, Connecticut, New York, New
Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Mary-
and, District of Columbia and Ohio. '
The Western group was composed
of Wisconsin, Minnesota, North Da-

Mexico, Texas, Oklahoma, Iowa, Mis
souri, Colorado and Nebraska.
Urges Continuation of
American Legion Sports
Charles W. Paddock, of Los Angeles,
sprint champion, who has been called
“the world’s fastest human” is inter-
ested in “world athletics.” With
Loren Murchison he started recently
to tour the world under the auspices
>f many athletic associations and gov-
rnments to create a more definite in-
erest ir track and field competition.
Speaking of the value of athletics in
promoting world peace, Mr. Paddock
laid:
“In ancient times, the several Greek
states were brought into a bond of
‘ellowship surpassed by no similar in-
ernational treaty that exists today.
And if those people could accomplish
his through the spirit of sport, more
.han two thousand years ago, it would
leem that in this enlightened age, the
whole world might come to share a
similar feeling.
“The American Legion, for example,
has fostered sport unceasingly since its
creation and a continuation of this
same policy will greatly increase our
percentage of athletes, remove the
spirit that creates war and will hasten
the day when men the world over can
say, ‘We are brothers.’ ”
Legion Aids in Finding
Places for Unemployed
During the past year no fewer than
2,000,000 men found employment
through the federal government work-
ng in co-operation with state agencies
ind the American Legion, according
o a report by *the United States em-
ployment service of the Department
if Labor at Washington.
In states not having public employ-
nent service to co-operate with the
federal government, liaison is main-
tained between the “jobless man and
the manless job” through the agency
of the Legion.
Unskilled day laborers and trained
executives alike secured jobs through
the government and its allied agen-
cies.
- A Legion service official, comment-
ing on the work of finding men jobs,
said:
“The finding of employment for men
out of work, is a necessary public
function. Nothing on earth is so im
portant to a man as a job. As it is,
too little attention is paid to the as-
sembling and distribution of human
labor:
ommuni
Building
Community Building
in State of Virginia.
A community must lift itself by its
own bootstraps. That is the keynote
of tlie Co-operative Education Associa-
tion of Virginia as sounded in its
latest annual report which says that
the genius of the organization is to
develop the citizens and the community
from within, and not superimpose some
plan from without.
The association promotes better
schools, roads, recreation, health,
farms, homes, citizenship, and com-
munity leadership. It works under the
direction of the governor, the state de-
partments, higher institutions of learn-
ing, and a group of citizens. Its ma-
chinery of organization includes senior
and junior leagues and a county coun-
cil whose object is to bring the work-
ers of the county into closer co-opera-
tion. -
It has grown from a few leagues in
1904 to 1,833 in 1924—1,302 senior and
531 junior. Its membership is 62,575—
37,107 senior and 25,468 junior. Last
reports show that these gifts cover
about every phase of school improve-
ment from furnishing a broom to
guaranteeing a school board $1,200 for
the 1924-25 school budget. Either
through public meetings or material
accomplishments 3,787 pieces of defi-
nite work were reported for schools,
health, roads, agriculture, civic and
recreational improvement. The asso-
ciation is financed by the state and by
donations from various corporations
and individuals. Its receipts for the
past year amounted- to almost $24,000,
Room for Improvement
in Country Schools?
H. O. Dietrich, superintendent of
the schools of Norristown, speaking
before the National Education asso-
ciation, declared that half of the 15,-
says the Philadelphia Ledger. Forty-
five per cent of the teachers, he said,
are without normal school training,
and 54 per cent have had so little ex-
perience as to be almost helpless in
the face of their classes.
United States Commissioner of Edu-
cation John J. Tigert said that half
the school population of the country
is rural and had to put up with the
shortcomings and inefficiencies of the
small rural school. He appealed for
more government control to enable the
city , school to share some of its ad-
vantages with the country school, de-
claring that the rich cities should
bear more of the financial- load of
rural education than they do. In spite
of the great advancement of educa-
tion in all lines, the leaders at the
convention see things in our educa-
tional system to find fault with, and
probably they are right.
Garden Color Schemes
Many large gardens have long bor-
ders where color schemes could be
wrought with annuals or perennials,
or with both. Remember two points
which may be called fundamentals:
White is the one great neutralizer or
harmonizer in flowers and gray per-
forms a similar office in foliage.
Borders in which flowers and gray
foliage heavily predominate may have
any and all colors in harmony so long
as they do not mix, but have between
them a mere touch of white. Such a
peace-maker is often more necessary
between shades closely allied than- in
marked contrasts.
Thus with two shades of pink the
lighter appears washed and faded in
close comparison with a deeper and
therefore stronger hue. Even great
masses of white relieved by an occa-
sional touch of any color never ap
pear monotonous.
Clean Town Is a Winner
In spite of the best efforts of the
householder dirt will accumulate dur-
ing the winter, and a municipal clean-
ing is as necessary as the domestic
cleaning? Yet much can be done In
the way of keeping clean that will
mitigate the rigors of the cleansing,
whether in house or city. The habit
of cleanliness is easily acquired, and
It is one that should be coveted and
cultivated.
Nothing does more than dirt to give
a town an unprosperous appearance,
as is no doubt understood by-those
who are planning to make known the
merits of Indianapolis. It does not re
quire much imagination to visualize
a clean, shining and even gjittering
city, and this we can have if we only
have the will to strive for it.—Indi-
anapolis News.
Measurements of Metals
Iron is’ measured by avoirdupois
weight at 2.240 or 2,000 pounds to the
ton, depending on the laws of the
state in which sold. Gold is measured
by troy ounces even though the amount
runs into thousands of ounces.
Oil Wastage in Coal
It is estimated that 8,000,000.000 gal
lons of oil a year, besides numerous
valuable by-products, could be recov-
ered from the coal mined in the
United States.—Science Service.

Advertising Keeps Money at Home.;
a In an address to
I the Austin Kiwanis
I Club, Thomas K.
g Kelly, editor of
I Kelly’s Magazine,
I stated that “mail
I order houses get
I more orders from
i Texas than from any
• other state in the
union, and if this continues there are
going to be some new merchants in
this state in the next few years, and
many merchants now in business
won’t be selling goods to them.” He
called attention to the fact that the
mail order houses spend 10 per cent
of their gross sales every year in ad-
vertising, adding, “I will make a bond
right here that if retail merchants will
spend only 2 per cent of their gross
sales in advertising each year, put-
ting that advertising into their local
papers regularly and backing up their
advertising with good merchandise at
reasonable prices, the business will
show up satisfactorily every year.”
That is a strong statement, but it is
in line with the experience of every
merchant who is makinga success of
his business. Why not try it? So
many have succeeded that way that
it is no longer an experiment.
Truthfulnessrand Salesmanship
Necessary,
Newspaper space alone will not sell
goods. The advertising must be given
thought and must tell attractively
what the merchant has for sale. Said
Mr. Kelly: "Tell your message about
the goods you have through the news-
papers and tell that message truthfully
and give the public the news value of
that advertising and you will see your
business grow at an astounding rate.”'
There is more to business, though,
than that. Clerks must know the bus-
iness and the goods and be able to
present their selling points to custom-
ers. They must show interest in
pleasing customers. Advertising will
draw the crowds to the store, but the
clerks must sell the goods. To do
this the goods must meet the expec-
tations created by the advertising.
The general volume of business
throughout the country is growing
every year, and the merchant whose
business is not growing accordingly
has only his own business methods or
lack of methods to biame.
Emphasizing the Wrong Things.
- There is something wrong in gov-
ernment when a state has to pay more
to maintain its courts than it pays for
its school system and when the peni-
tentiaries and insane asylums have to
be given priority over schools in legis-
lative appropriations. Of course there
must be courts to try criminals and
to settle disputes and the public has
to bear the expense. It is necessary
to confine the criminal and the insane.
But it does not seem to occur to those
in authority that if the state would
give the right attention to the educa-
tion, the health, and the general wel-
fare of the youth, there would in a
few decades be much less need for
asylums and penitentiaries. The sys-
tem is wrong that gives maximum at-
tention to punishment and mental
treatment and minimum attention to
prevention of crime and insanity.
The Railroads and the Busses.
Railroads are complaining at the
competition of the bus lines in both
freight and passenger business, and
are endeavoring to create a sentiment
for stricter regulation of the motor
transportation business. Still the fig-
ures show that the roads are making
more money than they have ever made
despite this new competition at which
they are complaining. It seems that
the railroads would do well to recog-
nize the fact that motor transporta-
tion would never have become popular
unless the public had been made to
feel the need of it; that it merely
meets a demand that the railroads are
not satisfactorily filling. The rail-
roads have been too slow in delivering
their shipments, especially the local
shipments, and the trucks have profit-
ed by that slowness. Rates in some
cases may have been too high for
local shipments, and to these delivery
charges have to be added. The rail-
roads are themselves to blame if they
have encouraged competition through
their slowness, their overcharges, and
their indifference to the public good
The World Moves Rapidly.
Twenty years ago one would not
have thought it possible for motor
trucks and busses ever to become
competitors of the railroads. The au-
tomobile was then regarded as rather
an expensive fad for the rich. Today
it is the most universal means of
travel. In a few years the airplane
may be just as popular. Already it
is being used much for hurried trips,
mail is being transmitted by plane,
and airplane express and freight ship-
ments are being made. When we
think of the automobile, the airplane,
and radio, we wonder just what will
be the next development in speed.
Bringing the World Together.
The best result obtained from In-
ternational conferences like that of
the advertising men in Houston is
that people of many nations come to
know each other and to have sym-
pathetic feeling for the people of the,
whole world. Most of the misunder-
standing in the world is due to Ig-
norance of the problems confronting
others. When people come . together
to discuss their affairs, differences
are nearly always forgotten *

Lesson for May 24
SAUL BEGINS HIS GREAT CAREER
LESSON TEXT—Acts 9:20-31.
GOLDEN TEXT—“I determined not
to know anything among you, save
Jesus Christ, and Him crucified.”—I
Cor. 2:2.
PRIMARY TCIC—How God Saved
Saul From Danger.
JUNIOR TOPIC—Saul Preaching in
Damascus.
INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOP-
IC—Saul a Bold Preacher.
YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOP-
IC—Courage in Witnessing for Christ.
I. Saul Preached Christ in Damas-
cus (vv. 19-22).
1. Saul’s Fellowship With the Dis-
ciples (v. 19).
After Saul was baptized he remained
certain days with the believers in Da-
mascus (v. 19). How beautiful to think
of the transformation which took
place—the one who was so passionate-
ly bent on their destruction' was now
enjoying fellowship with the disciples.
2. Straightway Preaching in the
Synagogues (v. 20).
Saul, like every one who is really
converted, begins to tell of the newly
found Savior. As soon as he is saved
he goes to save others. His message
concerned the deity of Christ. His
doctrinal belief is summed up in six
words, “He is the Son of God.” .
3. The People Amazed (v. 21).
They knew that the very one who
had been the ringleader in persecuting
the Christians in Jerusalem, and had
come to Damascus for the express pur-
pose of bringing them' bound to the
chief priests, was now passionately ad-
vocating that which he had so vehe-
mently: sought- to destroy. When a
man is saved there ought to be -such a
change as to cause the people to notice
it.
4. The Jews Confounded (v. 22).
Saul retired into Arabia for three
years. During this time he was taught
the full truths of his ministry (Gal.
1:17-18). Saul increased in spiritual
strength and confounded the Jews,
proving that Jesus was not only the
Son of God, but their Messiah.
II. Saul Escapes From the Jews (vv.
23-25).
He used the Scriptures with such
skill that the Jews could not answer
him. Finding that the argument was
against them, the Jews took counsel
how they might destroy Saul. So in-
tent were they upon killing him that
they watched the gates of the city day
and night that they might take him.
When this became known to the dis-
ciples, they let him down at night in
a basket by the wall.
III. Saul Visits Jerusalem (vv.
26-29).
This journey to Jerusalem was in
strange contrast with the one from
Jerusalem to Damascus. The one was
as a leader of an important expedition
under the authority of the Jewish of-
ficers with the prospect of a place of
distinction in the council of the Jew-
ish nation. Now he is an outcast, dis-
owned by his countrymen, and fleeing
for his life. These are the outward
circumstances, but he knows the fel-
lowship of the Lord Jesus whom he
.once hated.
1. Suspected by the Disciples (v.
26).
The believers at Jerusalem had not
heard fully about Saul’s conversion.
They knew nothing of his sojourn in
Arabia, and his preaching at Damas-
cus after his return. Therefore they
regarded him as a spy. “Part of the
penalty of wrongdoing is the difficulty
of restoration in the good opinion of
honorable men.”
2. Barnabas’ Confidence in Saul (v.
27). *
Barnabas was a man filled with the
Holy Spirit (Acts 11:24) and therefore
able .to discern the reality of Saul’s
conversion. He was in reality a “son
of consolation” and here showed his
kind spirit.
3. Saul in Fellowship With the Dis-
ciples (y. 28).
He was not content merely to visit
with the brethren. He spoke boldly in
the name of the Lord Jesus Christ.
IV. Saul Sent to Tarsus (v. 30).
A conspiracy similar to that one at
Damascus was formed against Saul.
When the brethren knew of it they
sent him to Tarsus. Saul’s life- was
in danger everywhere except among
the Gentiles. He now is back to the
place of his birth. The first and best
place for one’s testimony is in his
home. Saul’s conversion was typical
of the conversion of the Jewish nation.
Their eyes will be opened by a per-
sonal revelation of Jesus Christ to
them, and when they accept Him as
their Savior and Messiah, they will go
forth as witnesses to the Gentiles.
To Know All
“To know all is to forgive all"—and
to forgive is to save.
Sense of Duty
A sense of duty may not be the high-
est motive, but the best men are moved
by it.—Presbyterian Record.
Giving to the Poor
Give work rather than aims to the
poor. The former drives ont indo
lence, the latter industry.
Sin in Infancy
Be not familiar with the idea of
wrong, for sin in infancy mothers many
an ugly act.

How Robert M. Koenig
Found Remedy for
Pimply Skin
For year's my skin would breakout
every once in a while—and ointments
did very little to help me.
I read a doctor’s article stating that
pimply skin usually comes from the
stomach—and bowels not getting rid
of the poisons.
I tried Carter’s Little Liver Pills for
a few days—and since that time my
skin is smooth and clear. Now I tell
my friends the right way of getting
rid of a broken out skin—and also of
steering clear of upset stomach and
sick headache? Carter’s are all you
claim for them.
Teamster’s Life Saved

said I could not live for more than two
years. Finally Peterson's Ointment' was
recommended to me and by its use the
sore was entirely healed. Thankfully
