SOUL BODY,' LHUKLH
THEME ON SUNDAY
"Soul nnd Body" was the sub
iort of the lesson-sermon in ail
Churches of Christ, on Sunday,
November 19.
The Golden Text was from Isa.
20:8: "Yea. in the way of thy
judgments, O Lord, have we wait
ed for thee; the desire of our soul
is to thy name, and to the remem
' brance of thee."
Among the citations which com
prised the lesson-sermon was the
■ following from the Bible: "Unto
Thee, O Lord, do I lift up my soul.
Lead me in Thy truth, and teach
me: for Thou art the God of my
salvation; on Thee do I wait all
the day." (Psalms 25:1,5).
The lesson-sermon also includ
ed the following passage from the
Christian Science textbook, "Sci
ence and Health with Key to the
Scriptures," 'by Mary Baker Ed
dy: "Whoever is incompetent to
explain Soul would be wise not to
undertake the explanation of
body. Life is, always has been,
and ever will be independent of
matter; for Life is God. and man
is the idea of God, not formed
materially but spiritually, and not
■ subject to decay and dust. The
| I'salmist said: "Thou madest him
j to have dominion over the works
j of Thy hands. Thou hast put all
|. things under his feet." '(p.200).
JOURNALIST IN
AUTHORS ROLE
Raymond Clapper Exposes
the Political Racket in
United States
NEW YORK. Nov. 21.—( UP).
The auv of the liquor racketeer
has ended. The era of the com
mercial racketeer is said to be
waning. 1 »ut the political racket
still flourishes in the nation's
capital, aceordin.tr to Raymond
Clapper's e^ose of "Racketeer
ing in Washington."
Clapper's hook is based upon
his years of experience as head
of the Washington bureau of th*
United Press associations. He has
put into book form, amplified
ami expanded, the illuminating
series of articles upon nepotism
which was carried under his by
line on United Press wires. To
his skill and knowledge a fore
ward bv Henry Ford pavs tribute.
Tha Detroit industrialist says:
"Mr. Clapper knows this nation.
He constantly has traveled ;ts
length and breadth, observing its
trends, studying its methods, in
milarizing himself with the wide
variety of mind and motive which
marks its citizens, and reporting
these with the efficiency and
high impartiality which charac
terize our best journalism."
A brief survey of Clapper's
chapter headings best illustrates
the scope and subject matter of
the book. They read as foliows:
Payroll Statesmen. The Land of
the Free, Slumming in the Sen
ate. Finally Pie, Nepotism's Cou
sins, Wild Life. Soft Jobs, Spend
ing De Luxe, Subsidies, Prepared
ness and Pork. Pensions and Pol
itics, Rulers of America. Turn
on the Light.
"Racketeering in Washington"
is illustrated by many cartoons
by leading cartoonists.
Clapper devotes his early chap
ters to a discussion of political
racketeering in general, to laying
the background for the later sec
tions, which deal with it in par
ticular. Very much in particular,
too. for Clapper names names, he
tells what your senator or con
gressman has had for his shari
out of the pork barrel.
Former Senator Smith W.
Prookhart had provided a $26,
000 federal payroll for his son?,
daughters and brothers. Senator
William E. Borah drew a $1,
