'No War Victory on Points; Knockout, Says Roosevelt in Behalf of the Navy By Associated Prist Detroit, Mich., May 31.—"America does not want to win this war oh points; we want a knockout." In these words Colonel Theodore Kooseveit, making a Memorial Day address here last night In behalf of the Navy, summarized his concep tion of this country's war alms. "If we don't carry It through now," he declared, "w will be forced to tight it out here later, and with out allies. "If our people had been as awake fourteen months ago as they are now, there would be one million lighting men on the fighting front, with all needed equipment, and there would not be the slightest danger of Germany's push succeeding." Colonel Roosevelt's address cul minated a strenuous day in which he reviewed two parades and par ticipated in exercises to the memory of Detroit's Army and Navy dead. He left shortly before midnight for New York.

The International Sunday School Lesson For June 2 Is "Jesus Warns and Comforts His Friends""Mark i3;i-lk;9 By WILLIAM T. ELLIS V : War's wonders Include the open purse of the people. Such giving for the great cause as has been witness ed of late has set an entirely new standard for all financial transac tions, even In the realm of high finance. Billions of dollars have been lavishly outpoured by loving and loyal hearts. There is no cause, touching the welfare of our sailors and soldiers, that may not count upon the unstinted benevo lence of the'people. We may meas ure the depth of the passions of pa triotism and purpose that prevail in our land by the measureless magni tude of our people's sacrifices and gifts. One recallß the incident of long ago, which is the present Sun day school lesson, when Jesus made immortal the lavishness of love. Then an ardent, Impetuous, grate ful disciple, a woman, whose heart brimmed over with love, lavished upon the Restorer of her brother, a precious ointment that could > have been sold for SSO in gold, as we rate money, or that was the equivalent of a year's wages for a working man of the time, or that was worth one-third more than the sum which the disciple estimated to be neces sary to feed five thousand. The treasurer of the college of apostles resented what he called the waste fulness of the deed; his Idea was that the monitary standard was su preme and that the most important thing for the incipient Church to consider was Its source of financial income. It is rather interesting that these two well known Bible characters, Mary and Judas, should each be re membered largely for one Incident, and that one Incident having to do with an estimate of money's worth. Mary thought her richest treasure was best spent In pouring it forth as a fragrant anointing for the Mas ter she loved. Judas thought thirty pieces of silver —far less than the cost of Mary's alabaster cruse of nard—of more value than his Lord's life, plus his own honor and fidelity and salvation. The Aftermath of a Myracle This incident occurred at a feast given by Simon, a healed leper. It was a scandal in the eyes of the aus tere religionists of his time that Jesus came eating and drinking and sharing the common life of the peo ple; but this is to-day His glory, for it has sanctified the ordinary re lations of men and women, their joys as well as their sorrows. Christian ity is as norman and appropriate at a feast as at a funeral. The happiest persons at this par ticular festivity were the members of the Bethany home wither the weary Christ was accustomed to re sort, whose head, Lazarus, had been raised from the dead by Him. The presence of both Jesus and. Lazarus at the feast made the occasion really sensational. What a peeping in at the doors and windows there must have been, and what a curious crowd gathered to see the guests arrive and depart. This man who had been dead and buried four days, and then made live again was as much an ob ject of interest as the Miracle-Work er himself. A SUCCESSFUL REMEDY All things succeed which really deserve to—which fill a real need, which proye their worth. The fact that the famous old root and herb remedy, Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege table Compound, has for three gen erations bee> relieving women of this country 'from the worst forms of female Ills anfl has won such a strong place in otir American homes proves its merit beyond the question of a doubt. It will well pay any woman who is in need of such a medicine to try it.—Adv. The Importance of this particular miracle is not to be overlooked. It tremendously stimulated interest in Jesus. It Increased the irumber of His disciples, and It Is given as the direct cause of the triumphal entry. Moreover, it intensified the bitter ness of .Christ's enemies. They in cluded Lazarus in their hate, and would have put him to death also, because the testimony of his resur rection was so powerful an argument for the divinity of the Nazarene. The price paid for Christ's friend ship is always the enmity of His enemies. They who would reign with Him must also suffer with Him. Contracts at a Feast Life is not as simple as in our youthful dreams we believe it to be. Each day's newspaper contains, side by side, tragedies and rejoicings, failure and successes, sorrows and Joys; and its marriage and death jio tices are always grouped together. This Bethany feast was a picture of life. There was the deep and won dering Joy over the restoration of Lazarus, chastened by memories of the great sorrows of his death. There was also seen the transcend ing love of Mary who by the way must not be confounded with Mary Magdalene, nor with the sinful wom an who anointed Jesus at another feast— and in sharp contrast to this was the greed of sordid-minded Ju das. These were the common run of people, and the exalted Spirit who was incarnate God. All gathered about Simon's table, merged into the one world, and yet each a world in himself. • It is suggestive that these diverse interests found their common meet ing point in the person of Jesus. For in Him all the conditions and classes and races of mankind are discover ing a common center. The world's great point of agreement is the Man of Nazareth .whom every other man finds close kin to himself. There is nothing more wonderful about the character of the Saviour than His affinity for everybody. He is still in complete sympathy with the lowli est and the highest. Friend gropes to find a congenial nature in friend, but in Jesus one meets instant and perfect union. The lavishnm of love This particular feast, the chief Guest declared, is to be known wher ever the gospel is preached for one supreme occurrence there. Mary had brought with her what had probably long been a precious house hold heritage, an alabaster cruse of precipus nard, that most fragrant of spices. In that simple community which knew nothing of modern lux ury, its value must have been enor mous, for it would have sent three hundred beggars on their way re joicing, or it would have sustained a laborer and his family for more than a year. To the astonishment of everybody and to the horror of some, Mary poured out without stint, and to the last drop, this precious ointment upon the Lord, who had brought back from the gTave her brother. It was a woman's deed—the deed of su preme and self-forgetting and uncal culating affection. True love is al ways lavish in its giving Its best belongings to its beloved. When it be gins to ponder and weigh and count the cost, it is no longer love, for in love there Is no withholding. And in all this great world, the most fra grant thins is love's deed done purely for love's sake. Well did the Master crown It with a memorial, declaring that it would be recorded wherever His gospel is preached. There are many things in life which at eventide we regret but the lavishness of our love is never one of them. The deeds we do at af fection's prompting are, when we see most clearly, pride and gratifica tion and happiness. The sorrow which men feel as they stand beside the bier of a loved one is not for their much giving, but for their short-sighted withholding. Love keeps no ledger. "Sentimental!" "Foolish!" "Ex travagant!" the thrifty and careful villagers no doubt exclaimed over Mary's act. They were Unable to see that there are better things in life than being thrifty and economi- To feed the spirit is better than to feed the body, and there is many a wife with a great ache in her heart, who would gladly surrender the houses and the bank account which her true husband had accu mulated for her sake, were he but a little more free with words and. to kens of affection. There is not enough of flowers and gifts in life, and too much of sordid calculation. Christ placed His stamp of approval upon love that shows itself in boun teous tokens of affection. The Mcrcennry Spirit This whole proceeding must have been heart-breaking to Judas, as he watched the precious nard flow down to the ground while its perfume fill ed the house. He cared nothing for its fragrance, and was blind to the light that enkindled his Master's eye as He beheld this glad offering of pure devotion. Judas' spirit was wholly mercenary, and the finer In stincts cannot survive sordidness of soul. It is awful to contemplate how many fair and fragrant growths are stifled by this rank weed of merce nariness. It enters the most sacred places and profanes the most hallow ed institutions and occasions. Consider the death chambers that have been made the scenes of strife, because thought of an Inheri tance was uppermost in the minds of all present. When the passion for money enters a life ,it feeds all other base passions, and wages constant war against those passions which are sacred and enobllng. It prevents a proper sense of values. The man who loves money can never see straight, even on questions of poll tics and practical morality. So stirred was Judas that he could not contain himself in silence, and he cried out; "Why was not this ointment sold for three hundred shilling and given to the poor!" This was the cunning of a miserly man. For a miser is proverbially cunning. Judas was shrewd enough to cloak a base motive under a pious pretense. This was not the first time nor the last, that self-interest paraded as religion. John goes to the root of the matter when he de . Clares; "Now this he said, not be- I cause he cared for the poor, but be- I cause he was a thief, and having the j bag, took away what was put there ' in." Despite daily association with Jesus and daily Instruction from Him, one of the twelve-had grown to be a thief! So stirred was Judas by Mary's deed, and by what he must have con sidered the "impractical" viws of Jesus regarding the extravagance, that he went forth and made an un holy bargain with th priests, to sell His Master for only a small fraction of the value of the anointing fluid which Mary had poured upon Jesus' feet. Judas had already lost his soul. It had been stifled to death by loye of money.
