SOLD BY KEEPING CHEAP FOOD CHEAP. People already face a food dictator on the German and English plan for this country ot abundant production ahd large food exports. In that connec- tlon the Saturday Food That Ha. Evening Poet said B recently: “A cor- Boan, Cheap respondent points In War and P oops out that two artl- Can Stay Cheap, cles of food are . practically always to be found In every part of the United States and almost always at a" low price when the distance which they are transported Is taken into account The two articles are oranges ^and bananas. The price of the latter, in fact, is al­ most stable and uniform all over the country year In and year out, although bananas are a perishable product an<l are (shipped thousand's of miles. The marketing of oranges and bananas is extensively organized—the former by co-operative associations, the latter by a trust. But even a trust; presumably operated solely for the' profit of the stockholders, gets a bunch of bananas ■ from the tropics to the northern con­ sumers' fruit stand with less avoidable wnste than that which usually attends getting a peck of beans from a Held twenty miles away to the local city grocery.’' Right here is where the food dictator is needed. It Is going to he difficult to compel reduction of food prices once they are abnormally highl But since oranges and bananas have been cheap in peace years and so con- tinued through, three years of world war, Iwhat, reason for their advance can be alleged ? Dates are another*food article cheap and stable in price. The dictator will have a basis to stand on if he demands the why and wherefore of price kiting. REVOLUTIONS IN EDUCATION.

The dividing line comes after the youtlrn have been grounded in a Abroad general education.

D„ Teacher of English Bible in ths Moody Bible Institute of Chicago.) (Copyright, KIT, Western Newspaper Union.) LESSON FOB SEPTEMBER 9 Generally Admitted -That Prohibition . Forces Have- Advantage In Begin­ ning of Campaign aa Many Agen­ cies Are at Work In Their Favpr. Countlee Are Betng Organized a» Rapidly as Possible and Drye Do Not Intend to Leave Undone Any­ thing That Will Help to Insure Vic­ to ry Believe Hard Work and Unanimity of Action Will Bring Success. Columbus, Ohio.—These are busy days in the wet and dry- camps in Ohio, The Liberal League and the Ohio Brewers' Association have held meetings, selected L, H. Gibson, long" connected with Cincinnati liquor head­ quarters, to manage the campaign have declared’they will fight as never before-to defeat state-wide Prohibi­ tion atr the November election. The drys have united every .ele­ ment antagonistic to the salo.on, have held the largest and most successful convention in tho state’s historv have agreed upon the form of amend­ ment, have selected James A. White State Superintendent of the Anti- Saloon League, to manage the cam­ paign, and have given him a cam­ paign committee of fifteen adroit workers, representing different dry organiaztions and federations.. The stage is set for a furious cam­ paign. The slate-wide battle, this year will make all previous contests of the kind seem like mere skirm­ ishes. The entire country w ill’be an interesting spectacle. " The ‘liquor men are fighting for a longer lease on life. The dry forces are expect­ ing a victory in Ohio to be quickly followed by nation-wide Prohibition. The belief is general that th.e drys start the campaign with better chances of success than do the wets and this in spite of the fact that two years ago the wet majority was in excess of 54,000. But that’ is not a wide margin in a total vote of a mil­ lion and a quarter. The trend of sentiment all oVpr the country and the world is favorable to the drys The sweep of the movement towards Prohibition is increasing, and in spite of the millions poured into campaigns by the liquor men, they have been unable to check the drys at any point. Thq triumph in four States in No­ vember, followed by easy victories i'. nflioi*"ftfnfda sinna fic wnll ns m •flu other^states i ce, as ell a in the United States Senate have bobsted Prohibition stock and have brought a depressed feeling “into the wet camp. The decision of the United States. Su­ preme Court,, holding valid the Webb- Eenyon anti-shipping law, was heart­ breaking to the brewers and distil­ lers for it meant the loss of a great volume of business and this means lessened sinews of war. . Men. who come up to Columbus from all parts of Ohio bring the same reports to the effect that Ohio is go­ ing dry this year. Both old political parties are getting ready to ,bump booze and the rotten election mess in Cincinnati which Uncle Sam is now cleaning up is not going to make the burden of the wets any lighter. But the drys do not intend to he lured into inaction by the rosy situa­ tion. They realize the bigness of tho task. They know that in the" cam­ paign of 1914 and 1915 the margins were against them. They do not in­ tend to underestimate the strength* and resources of the enemy, and they are planning the campaign'with all kinds of trained and seasoned gen­ erals. The record of the liquor traffic in Ohio under license is a serious handi­ cap to the. Wets, During the past year crime and drunkenness have in­ creased at a frightful rate in wet centers and, as usual, the licensed saloons have had a big share in mak; ing this record breaking history. Li­ cense has failed to regulate the traffic. Already the drys are busy as bees organizing the counties. They aro finding the people responsive. There is little evidence of indifference. Ohio drys are on their mettle. They, un­ derstand the country expects mucti of them and they intend to deliver the goods.

GOLDEN TEXT-But Daniel purposed in his heart that he .would not defile him­ self with the-portion of the king's meat, nor with the wine which he drank—Daniel 1 : 8 . The book of Daniel, with the great prophecies, fulfilled and unfulfilled, Is one of the most Interesting utfd Impor­ tant In the Bible, Without a grasp of tlie prophecies of this book it Is abso­ lutely impossible for one to know the £>cwTestament and the times in which we live. Daniel gives an outline of the entire period of time from the passing of supremacy to the Gentiles in Nebu­ chadnezzar to the final overthrow of the Gentile dominion, to the establish­ ment of the millenlal kingdom. The course, character and end of Gentile dominion are given. It is that 'period known In Scriptures as* the “times of the Gentiles” (Luke'21:24), The book of Daniel falls Into two parts: Part I (chapters 1 to 6), in Which the prophet appears as the di­ vinely chosen interpreter of dreams; part II (chapters 7 to 12), in which the prophet appears as the mouthpiece of i God, setting forth ■ In visions, ■not dreams, the times of the Gentiles. The book Is written in two languages, He­ brew and Aramaic—chapter 1.-1-2.3 and chapters 8 to 12 (Hebrew); chapters 2:4-7:28 (Aramaic). The part which concerns the Hebrews was written in their own tongue and the part which concerns the empires of the world Is written In their tongue. I. Daniel's Horpe Leaving (w . 1-4). He was carried away to Babylon by Nebuchadnezzar In the first siege of Je­ rusalem. This was a great trial for his own h ea rt.. He seems to have been about fourteen years of age, II. Daniel's Trials and Difficulties (vv. 5-13). It was the custom for^the best of the captives to be selected anti trained for service in the land of cap­ tivity. They usually selected those of the royal house for such training. 1. Change of name. Among the He­ brews mimes were given to children, which were significant. Danlel'menns “God Is my judge.” The significance of the name then was that all prob­ lems of life were submitted to God for decision. This was the secret of Dan­ iel’s life. This purpose of his parents seems to have been instilled into his very life and being. So thoroughly did he imbibe this spirit that in all things lie made God arbiter of his plans and purposes. The object no doubt In the chance of name was to obliterate his national and religious connection and identify him with the heathen people. The king of Babylon evidently liked Daniel’s appearance^ and scholarship, but was averse to his religion. It is the same today. Nations and individ­ uals are perfectly willing to recognize and utilize tlie-scholarshlp and efficien­ cy of Christian ministers a n 1mission­ aries, but are not willing to embrace their religion. 2. His conscience tested (vv. 5-8). I t was with reference to the king’s meat and the king's wines. It 1$ ever to be borne in mind that conscience Is the groundwork of human character, It is the law which must be followed. No doubt Daniel was taunted and lnughed at for his fidelity, just as all men nnd Women today who are loyal to their convictions must experience, for all who w nn iv e godly In Christ JesuS, shall suffer persecution. 3. His religious life. Tills involved his refusal to cat meat nnd drink wine which wus contrary to his teaching. Also it Involved his praying three times a day. III. His Succtii (vv. 14-21). L Phy­ sical health (v. 15). Godly ft;:d temperate living pays. The king's meat and wine would have been pleasant to the; palate, but would have meant compromise of conscience. 2. Mental growth (v. 20). He was ten times superior to his comrades. It ls alwnys true that those who abstain from indulgence in Uie use of wine have clearer minds aud are mentally better equipped*for their work than those who Indulge. 8. Social. Daniel ’stood before the king. No higher position of honor could have been given him. 4. Temporal. He became presldeht of the College of Wise Men and prime minister of the nation. This position he continued to hold through several dynasties, 5. Spiritual (v. 17), Because of Dan­ iel's loyalty to God, Nebuchadnezzar's dream was revealed to him and he was giving visions sketching the whole his­ tory of the world, IV. The 8ocret of Hie 8uccecs. The following may be set down as the tilings which made Daniel successful: 1. He was conscientious. I f we would succeed in the world, let 'US' see to it that in all things we live in good con­ science, 2, Loyalty to God, He made God the judge of everything that pertained to bis life. No pleasure was indulged in or problem disposed of without Its sub­ mission to God, 8. Decision of character. With him that which had been submitted to God and was shown to be*riglit before God, was the law of his life.
