to agree on some plan that will ease
the strain on everybody, without
subjecting anybody to undue peril.
Those favoring such reduction of
armaments, however, are embarras-
sed by the fact that the United
States is not in the League and it
building warships faster than any
of the nations that are in it. How
can the others quit, they ask, unless
they know that America will quit,
too?
Whether the United States joins
the League or not, there ought n
to remain much longer any doubt on
this point. The reduction of armies
and navies is the most important
subject now engaging the world’s
attention, the one that touches most

This country is not alone in its
war activity. Great Britain is pay-

spent $48,000,000 on her navy in
1913, is spending $187,000,000 on it
this year. All the big powers are
straining their resources to keep up

certainly. Britain and France, be-

Great Singer Coming.
Miss Bertha Anna Cooper, soprano,
will sing at the Central Christian
church, Sunday morning. Miss Coop-
er is head of the voice department
at Texas Christian University. Site
was formerly connected with the
State University of Iowa.
The beauty of Miss Cooper’s sing-
ing lies in llie unusual bell-like qual-
ity of her voice, that in its every
note thrills her hearers. There
sounds through it all a freedom and
spotanity seldom equalled. One can
only compare her singing to that of
a bird, in its clear ringing tones and
naturalness. There is no straining
after effects. The exquisite shading
and phrasing show the real artist.
Thanksgiving Sermon.
The union Thanksgiving sen-ice
held at the Grace Presbyterian
church yesterday was well attended.
The choir furnished appropriate mu-
sic. Rev. S. D. Logan acted ns
master of ceremonies and offered a
most touching and fitting invocation.
The Rev. Jew-eli Matthews preach-
ed the sermon. He took lor hfs sub-
ject: “God’s Goodness to America.”
His text was taken from the 147th
Psalm. “God hath not dealt so with
any nation.”
He said in his introduction: “Of
ail of the days which it has pleased
God to allow us to observe -there is
not one that means more to our
national life than Thanksgiving Day
a day in which we bring afresh to
traditions of
an illustrious people—a day in which
we re-dedicate and reconsecrate our-
selves to the higher purposes of
life.’
You who have assembled here
have come to reap the spiritual ben-
fits of the day. To you it is a day
of opportunity. To the vulgar, it is
a day for the satisfaction of beastly
desires—it is a day of revelry. It
is good that you have cast aside
tlie cares of business and the affairs
of your work-a-day life and have
come here to meditate upon the
goodness of God. With Israel’s poet
we cry, “I was glad when they said
unto me, fet us go up into the house
of the Lord.” Here we can think
emotionally. Here we can cast aside
the commercialism of life and eat
freely of the manna of heaven and
drink of the waters of life.
God has dealt wonderfully with
America in giving her a position of
prominence among the nations of the
earth. He dropped the “gem of the
ocean” between the silvery waters

use Calumet Baking Powder.
It never allows baking
trouble. You don’t “dread” to bake.
There is nothing to worry about—and
that really is the hardest part of it.
Mix up a batch of biscuits—
or the finest kind of cake—it’s all
the same. There is never but one re-
sult—the sweetest and most palatable
of foods.
There is not as much worry
over baking costs either. Because
Calumet costs less—when you buy it—
the price is moderate.

East. The combined stream of
wealth of the world can easily flow
into her pools of wealth. She by
reason of her position is easily de-
fended from any foe that might per-
chance knock for admittance at her
doors. Her position n.ade her at-
tractive to the early colonists. The
people of Europe were able to find
climate similar to that of their home
land. “God hath not dealt ko with
any nation.”
The natural resources of our won-
derful country cannot be described.
With her land area of nearly 3,00ft,-
000 miles, she is able to support her
millions of souls. Her fertile val-
leys, grassy plains and green moun
tain sides furnish abundance of food
for her over 104,000,000 of people.
America is rioli in silver, gold and
many other minterals. Liquid gold
is flowing from the bowels of the
earth at the rate of millions of bar-
rels per day. Our forest area covers
a total area of 630,000 square miles
— equal to the combined area of
Texas, Montana, California, and Ne-
vada.

the panorama of the American conti-

Universe.
Mr. Matthews attributed America’s
greatness as a race to fact that the
American is a conglomerate of all
<nf the races of Europe. He said “No
race pure In blood ever amounted
to anything—this is true of humani-
ty as well as the different varieties
of (he animal kingdom. The Ameri-
can has combined in him the talents,
traits, characteristics and virtues ol
the children of Europe.” He gave
several illustrations from the late
war to prove that the American was
a super-man.
Mr. Matthews reviewed briefly the
history of the United States, begin-
ning witli the Pilgrim Fathers. He
told of how the Pilgrims because
of the religious intolerance of the
mother country finally made their
way to tlie American continent. He
went somewhat into detail when he
discussed the signing of the “May-
flower Pact.” The Pilgrim fathers
agreed that the majority should
rule. The document whiclt they
compiled had in it the principle that I
all men are equal before the law.
This principle has wrecked thrones |
and consolidated the masses. it
caused the colonies to separate from
Great Britain and it created the
United States. It has lain the func-
tions of government upon the indi-
vidual, and made the people the
sole source of power.” He discuss-
ed the formation of the Articles of
Confederation, the Revolution, the
formation of the Constitution and
the Union. He reviewed briefly the
Civil War, the Spanish American
War and the World War. He em-
phasized the tact that the American
had always fought for principle.
He said, 1 But I would not have
you believe that the history of
America is great only in war, it is
equally as great in peace.” He then
described her educational and re-
ligious advancement, as *ell as ad-
