He found them in a hopeless mess, they were all mixed, with no head or tail to them. Dr. Bready had been furnished with three steno- graphers in succession and nom 1 of them left understandable re- cords, while he had no real knowing of the finances at all. ChargeH Made Public. Stewart demanded a hearing and made his charges public. The hearing was set for Nov. 1. Dr. Bready prepared to go to Cincin- nati. but Dr. Sherman Cregg, of Bronson Hospital. Kalamazoo, who was caring for him, declared he would become hopelessly in- sane if he were permilted to un-j dergo such an ordeal. "Mrs. Bready went to the trial 1 and assembled a number of wit- nesses. After the nine ministers had been behind closed doors; with Stewart and his group alii forenoon, Stewart came to ihe door and told her witnesses. 'You can go, Bready has confessed.' The witnesses were not heard. Dr. Bready has confessed noth- ing and there was nothing to confess. "At Ihe same time a telegram was sent to Dr. Bready telling! him that, if he would send $1,000 the charges would be dropped. He never had any such amount of money and he did not owe them anything. He had not even;? received all of the salary he was * supposed to have. He refused I to send the $1,000, and the order of suspension was published all If over the country. 1 "Bready is the son and grand- f son of Methodist ministers. His 1 oldest son, the only one to whom he has been able to give a college t education, is a Methodist minis-!* ter. The other three children I* have attended colleges in Detroit * and in Cincinnati for short per-if iods when their father happened ? to live near a college, but the j •> only one sent away to school was • sent in order that he might be a * minister." I.* "Dr. Bready has been a cru- t sader for tolerance. He slumped 4. Michigan in opposition to Ihe J parochial school amendment. He J had fought the Klan and duringi* the height of his activity he had t a Hag raising at the Port Huron'! church, in which Catholic and if Jews participated. He had also X been a tireless worker for prohi-! + billon." "During his pastorate in Pon- tine overwork caused a serious physical and mental disturbance' and the minister was found un- conscious in his church." Dr. Bready and his family have moved from Cincinati to Detroit,' Mr. Corell said. When The Pilgrims Landed On "Ihe stern and rock-bound coast" they came, to found a new land dedicated to personal and religious liberty. Little did they dream of Ihe great, prosperous land that this nation is now. Progress since Ihe Pilgrims landed has been rapid, and is constantly accelerating. But it was their forethought and prudence that laid the foundations of our present prosperity and freedom. Let us. loo. be prudent, and exercise foresight, in order to ensure an even greater America in the future. Do not waste. The Pilgrims could not! Celebrate Thanksgiving by opening a savings account.

To And share her triumph-songl carry that thought to its legiti-mate conclusion, let us suppose a case and see where it lands us.

    Suppose it were Detroit and Michigan instead of Grand Hap-ids and Kent county.

    Detroit has a preponderance of noses—all colors— and far and away the most money—and the most crime. Would Grand Hap-ids consent to submit to Detroit control of Michigan and its own comparatively small population and interests? Everybody knows she- .wouldn' t . George Welsh wouldn't.

    MAKING UNIVERSAL SPACE COMPREHENSIBLE.

    Many attempts have been made to give the average reader some-thing like an adequate concep-tion of the expanse of the uni^ verse.

    Several years ago a scientist said that if a microscopic grain of sand afloat in Lake Erie were to represent the earth, the Great Lake with its expanse of 10,000 square miles would represent the then known universe.

    Press and Herald wouldn't, and . T h a , w a » h t ,IP ful. but accord-the people of Grand Rapids cer-tainly would not.

    Would the state of Illinois con-

    ing to a later writer was inade-quate. We read: Let the earth and its orbit of 600 million

    sent to be ruled by Chicago. w i t h | n , l , t , s n b o l ' , ^ s " n be rcpresent-its dens of vice, its organized e«l by a pin head, then a map rep-gangsters, kidnappers and hell- r i , s e n l ' n S universal space in bent killers generally? Every- proportion would run into many body with any sense knows that thousand of miles. And our

    Illinois would do nothing of the kind.

    Would the great Empire state consent to be ruled by New York City with its immense foreign population of all races and col-ors? Cock-sure, Al. Smith tried that trick and you know how it worked out. He didn't allow for the brains, the conscience and loyalty to the constitution of the great common sense of Ihe com-mon people of New York state and "Great was the fall of "—him.

    Finally: Can you imagine the people of the United Stales sur-rendering control of National af-fairs to New York, Chicago, Phil-adelphia, Detroit and a few other great and wicked cities, just be-cause they are big. rich and crim-inal? You can't do it and it won't be done. The country will not thus seek self-destruction.

    T h e r e is something f o r these city controllers lo consider besides massed population and wealth. Greater than both of these combined are virtue, hon-esty. courage, intelligence and loyalty, and any man. any leader, or would-bc leader who figures without these, is riding lo his Waterloo!

    —o—o— CHURCH UNION AND LIBERTY.

    Dr. Harry Emerson Fosdick. modernist pastor of the Park ave-nue Baptist church. New York, discussing in Outlook and Inde-pendent for November the above topic, agrees to the desirability of the much-discussed union of Protestant churches; but declares that surrender of liberty is too great a price to pay for it; and concludes that church union must be based upon individual liberty and that therefore, with a multi-tude of difTering sects to consid-er. the full consummation of the movement must be considered re-mote.

    We must remember, however, that man's ways are not God's ways, that a "Thousand years with Him are but as yesterday when it is past." Christian unity is coining; the spirit is growing, and we are privileged to see the beginning of the end of church division. As Dr. Fosdick says: "Only human stupidity" keeps it from moving faster.

    'sun and its planets is only one of millions of such systems of worlds.

    More than that, no telescope yet built enables the human eye to glimpse the extent of the univers-es of God.

    Evidently those who have rep-resented the Almighty as being chiefly concerned with our little grain of sand and its smart infin-itesimal humans, have as adequate a conception of Almighty God as the tiny ants have of the human creature that towers grandly above them. That much and scarcely more.

    —o—o— A scientist writing for the pub-

    lic press recently tried to make geological time comprehensible. He says: Place a penny on lop of Cleopatra's needle and stick a postage stamp on the penny. The age of the earth from crea-tion to the appearance of pre-historic man is represented by Ihe ancient shaft, now standing in Central Park. New York. The lime of prehistoric man would be represented by the penny and the lime of civilized man by the postage stamp. As Cleopatra's needle is seventy feel tall, this little old Mother Earth has evi-dently been some real time in Ihe making.

    —o—o— The Grand Rapids Herald prac-

    tical My nominates George Welsh and Melville B. McPherson to lead Ihe opposing forces in a jlght for control of the Michigan Legisla-ture in a City vs Rural districts contest. It is too bad to initiate such a struggle; but if Grand Bapids is satisfied with its cham-pion. the rural districts will sup-port its able leader, to the finish and we predict for him a winning battle of wits.

    A wife's right to talk has been upheld again in court. Judge Doyle, of New York, dismissed the complaint of Dr. Liston Paine, whose wife called him on the telephone 204 times in one day.

    Most certainly she has a right to call him up and call him down. At an average of 5 min-ute. per call, that was only 17 hours all told. It was cheap talk at that, cheaper than going to the talkies.

    Simultaneously with Ihe pub-lication of Harry Emerson Fos-dick's statement that church un-ity, if it comes, must provide for individual liberty of belief, comes announcement of the union of the National Council of Congrega-tional churches and the General convention of t h e Christian church at Piqua. Ohio, recently. The merger brings together 1,800,-000 Protestant communicants we are informed, and is certainly a most significant step in church union, even though it is only step in the right direction.

    Descent from the sublime to the ridiculous is illustrated in the case of Albert Einstein, German philosopher, who figured out the theory of relativity, which only a dozen of the world's best minds are said to be able to compre-hend, as some one who claims to know says that Einstein is un-able lo keep his check book straight. Practically minded people will be apt to think that every day affairs are of more im-portance to average people than chasing star beams through end-less space.

    One dislikes to differ with Henry Ford, he knows so much about mechanical and industrial matters, but when he says: "You can look ahead into the future just about as far as you can look back into the past," we deny his statement. We can look back into the past to the beginnings of civilization, and in a measure lo many centuries, even ages, before. While of the future.

    Liver has come to be consider-ed as valuable in the diet of anem-ics and is becoming so scarce that soon it may be sold on prescrip-tion only; and we can remember when round steak sold for 10 cents a pound, and the butcher threw in all Ihe liver one wanted "free gratis for nothing." May-be that's the reason we did not hear so much about pernicious anemia forty or fifty years ago.

    That Eastern sliding preacher who slid from the Baptist church to Unitarianism, and has tobog-ganed down and out to a God-less," Humanist," church of his own creation, has gone to need-less and profilless trouble to or-ganize a Godless church. Where he belongs is with the avowed promoters of Atheism.

    Why don't you control your wife? Judge Lamson asked Henry Porter, of St. Louis. "You must be single," was the retort.

    Fraud is charged in the recent city election in Detroit. How would Grand Rapids and Michi-gan like to submit control of the slate to Detroit ward heelers and "vote manipulators?

    Is your car ready? Three steps are necessary to put your car in shape to meet the heavy demands of cold weather driving.

    1 — ( hanjje the lubricant in the differential and transmission, using Folnrine Transmission Oil (Winter) o r Iso A'is Lubricant (3).

    2 — H a v e the chassis thoroughly greased.

    3 —Flush I lie crankease with Polarine Flushing Oil and refill wilh winter grade of either Iso-Vis or Polar iuc recommended for your car. *

    These three steps are vital to the good conduct and smooth operation of your car this winter.

    Iso =Vis and Polarine meet every winter need. They maintain their viscosity and lubricate thoroughly at any operating temperature. They're highly refined and scientifically correct for all motors.

    If you use Polarine—drain the crankcase every 500 miles for maximum efficiency and economy. If you use Iso = Vis, the constant viscosity oil—you can drive a thousand miles or more without changing, for Iso-Vis wears and wears and wears.
