The sun is perceptibly on its way south. Earlier it takes its candles through the woods and goes to bed. Evening may bring a suggestion of chill and a thought of a tog fire. Queen Anne's lace and button rockets are in the open places with daisies and the fox grass. There'l] be red haws and wild grapes to gather. _ The silk of the sweet corn is brown. Red--headed wood-- peckers have come into the oaks, pounding and skirling. Thickets are growing yellow. Soon a dried leaf will come tum-- bling out of the shag bark hickory. The pips of the wild rose will turn red. The old wheel is on another turn. TIME TO MAKE AIRPLANES SAFE Impractical dreamers who love to jump ten thousand years' into the future may weave inspiring stories about *the wonders of aviation in 2000 A. D., but right at this time the death toll ef aviation continues to mount. Seven deaths in the last eleven days in the Chicago district indicate that_the airplane is not as safe as its enthusiastic promoters declare it is, for as long as people run a danger of losing their lives every time they hop off the earth they are certain to look upon aviation with suspicion. The accidents that took their toll of lives prove that the aviation business needs careful supervision. Almost without exception, the investigations that followed the deaths proved that something had been overlooked. These oversights may have been minor ones originally, but the neglect of them was fatal in the end. There is every reason to feel that the air will not be con-- quered without the loss of hundreds of more lives, but the realization of that fact should not make us careless about one or two lives at this early stage. Rather it should cause us to resolve that carelessness will be eliminated in future flying and that the same mistake will not be made twice. It is the only way we can recover anything of value from the costly expendi-- ture of human flesh and blood. THE OLD BOOK STILL LIVES . 1 Every few months somebody comes out with a new inter-- pretation of the Bible. In it this somebody either modernizes the language, cuts out doubtful passages, changes ambiguous statements into his own version, or reduces the hig'ly poetic: images of the St. James book into cold, matérialistic facts. 'This reshaping of the Bible has been going on ever since the St. James version took its place at the peak of world literature, but the individual attempts to mould the thought of Chris-- thdsy'hto private designs have failed to create more than a'ripple of interest. 60y . An amazing biography of Jesds Christ, written by a University 'of Chicago professor, is the htesmu come to our attention. In his book, the m.g res that the discipleswere politically ambitious mien who followed Jesus in the hope that they would receive high positions in the state that their leader was expected to organize. We wonder whether these works of disillusionment do any good, even if they are written by famous authorities. As the events of which they speak happened almost two thousand years ago, there is no way of telling whether existing records are true or false."Therefore, with the actual facts obscured by the mists of years, we might as well look upon the life and teachings of the Saviour in the best light. With this longing for faith, hope, and love in our hearts, we shall pass by the skeptical modern works and stick to the book that our parents read to us. THE MAN OF MYSTERY The city of Chicago wants a governor who will sit in Springfield and see that the city of Chicago gets what it wants in the state legislature. No special Chicagoan is mentioned. Anyone will do, just so he is from Chicago. The character, resourcefuiness, and experience of a man who is to be governor should, in our opinion, rank higher than the average. We cannot see how Chicago's straw--pulling con-- test is going to unearth that man. Truly, the Windy City's candidate is a man of mystery.
