mitted that he has received an an-
nouncement of the fact The Star

RADIO on
Now that everybody old and young
has taken to decorating the house-
tops with weird contraptions of wood
and wire and causing their necks to
settle in their foundations under the
weight of headphones there seems
to have come a rew answer to an old
problem how to keep ’em down on the
farm Ail of which will be explained
at the International Wheat and Farm
Products Exposition to be held in
Wichita from September 26 to Octo-
ber 7
The popularization of radio has
finished what the Ford and the phono-
graph started for the farmer and has
done a lot that they could not even
begin It may be likened to a super-
periodical a concert hall and a univer-
sity it gives the latest news and
brings to everyone the voices of the
greatest thinkers scholars and sing-
ers of the day

The Farmer-Stockman agent
was in these parts trying for sub-
scribers “If the churches of Christ thru-
out Europe and America allow
another war to fructify— they had
better dose their door"— Lloyd
George in Literary Digest Au-
gust 19 page 34 That towering
English statesman seems to have
forgotten for the time that God
sends and directs wars upon the
wicked because of their wicked-
ness and if the righteous suffer
and die because of it they suffer
as martyrs as did the Son of God
Therefore to eliminate wars neces-
sarily means fiist to eliminate
wickedness Furthermore all the
churches in the world combined
can not and will not prevent the
recurrence of wars as long as
man is wicked and unwilling to
make peace with God upon God’s
plan of salvation Read Isa 65:12
There is much scripture like the
