LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
To the Editor of the TeU graph:
Your fairness In permitting both
sides to voice their sentiments on
tlie House Rill No. 94. certainly is
deserving of a consideration In keep
ing with higher Ideals than an at
tempt to commercialize the oppor
tunity for any purpose other than a
liberal one. A liberal criticism on
the true performance of duty, show
ing both beauties and faults is to be
encouraged, as in that way appro
ciation for the good can bo shown i
and frequently a suggestion that i
may tend to alter a bad one is pro- [
duced. . _ .
One of the things to be regarded
bv both sides is the fact that their
opponents are Justly entitled to an
expression of their honest coniic
tions. The fact that two men dis
agree does not necessarily imply
that either of them is a bad man.
If all the mechanical ingenuity of
the universe wilt not make two
clocks run exafctly the same, how
can wo expect all of the millions of
men to think alike.
In one evening's issue ot your pa- j
per some one signing "An Old Vet- |
eran" takes advuntuge of the op
portunity to give vent to his feel
ho has never read the Old Blue
laws, or the House Bill No. 94. ,
He condemns those who differ with
him and makes at least 75 per cent,
of the good people of this Common
wealth ineligible to citizenship. He
states that he is "literally astonish
ed" from which we infer that he is
a llterallst-adhering to the letter
and exact word, so as a measure of
insuring hint domestic 1
suggest that he does not read i
Timothy 11-11, and for the protec
tion o£ the morals of liis neghbor
hood that he pass the entire book
of Dcutoronomy.
According to this man's ideas
loss than 25 per cent, of the people
are Christians, have neither respect
for either man or God and unfit to
be citizens. Knowing that the large
majority have too much respect for
the enlightened age in which they
live, to even laugh at, let alone con
sider this seriously, makes further
comment unnecessary. His refer
ences to "Wide Open Sundays." "Pa
triots who love the nation," etc. er
veul inconsistencies, either belying
or disregarding the sincerity of his
pupose. As a means of fairness to
himself will "An Old Veteran," get
a copy of both Blue Laws and Bill
the benefit of "Young Americans."
Then write another letter —One of .
vindication.
An Old Veteran is not the only |
one and it is truly a most unfor-1
tunate condition, when men, whom
tlie world looks too for moral guid
ance, unconsciously, or unscrupu
lously betray the very purpose of
their mission, by showing any other
than a spirit of fairness. The fol- j
lowing are but a few examples:
A minister of this city choses to
call tlie sponsor of House Bill No.
94 "an unprincipled legislator." In
all probability he does not know
the address, let alone the reputation
of tho accused. In any event he j
should bear in mind that character j
assassination is no longer consider- ;
ed one of the line arts, or as an in
strument for spiritual upbuilding
work, as it lias long since been plac
ed on the list of nonessentials.
Another minister prints a church
advertisement headed: "Remember
the Sabbath Day and Keep It Holy."
This reference was made to the Sev
enth day, the original duy of rest
and not the Sabbath which we ob
serve in the commemoration of the
Resurrection of Jesus, so why not
be consistent and employ quotations
front tlie wonderful teachings of
Christ —"Man was not made for the
Sabbath, but the Sabbath for man"
—or "The Son of Man is not come
to destroy life"—or any of the many
others which are consistent with the
issue. lie also refers to "A Wide
Open Sunday," which is not in the
least implied in the bill in ques
tion. Is it no longer essential that
there be a consistency between
things relating to the same subject.
What is wrong with tills ' minister j
getting a copy of both the Blue I
Laws and .the bill and read them
to his congregation. In every other
instance texts are supported with !
quotations, so if there be any holy j
inspiration in the Blue Laws, it is
only justice to employ them. Simply
using anything that will fit in is j
not a logical manner of argument. |
We are also told by 150 ministers j
of our city that the Blue Laws "are i
necessary t<f provide pillars for tlie;
church of tlie future." Is the church >
to be supported by men who are not [
Christians because they want to be.
but because there is a law that i
make* them be. Are we to believe j
that Goddn His infinite wisdom will
be unable to discern between tlie
true and the disguised. If that be
true a quicker method, that of a
hypodermic of a theological toxin
What is to be our conception of
omniseiency. omnipotency and omni- ;
presence. No greater Injustice to
God can be done than in attributing j
to him the shortcomings of men. I
Religion, when properly portray- ;
ed is so beautiful as to make man
want for it. It is the cornerstone >
of civilization, because, when truly |
pictured teaches ntan to lie civil unto j
his fellow man and that is the i
height of civilization. Certain kinds
of Billy Sunday evangelism have the
same relation to true religion that !
a bull fight has to modern farming;
methods.
1 ' Tho Constitution of the United i
States is -one of the grandest and
noblest documents ever conceived i
by men for the advancement and ;
protection of a nation and is too ■
sacred an instrument to be found
in tlie hands of those who attempt
to disqualify others to a citizenship,
simply because tbe.v express the in
tegrity of their convictions. There
arc a number of measures in this
grand document worthy of con
sideration at all times.
No day is too good for a man
to be happy and happiness can come
alone through the things peculiar
to his individual desire. To laugh
on the Sabbath is not longer con
sidered lis an evidence of "total de-
I pravity," piety is no longer meas-
I tired by degrees of sadness and the
'sickest looking people are no long-
I er rt garded as th most righteous
as a specific for indigestion has long
I since been found.
j Let us try to be fair with our
selves and "when in doubt tell the
I truth."
We all too well know the bene
fits that, come from fresh air. sun
shine, exercise and laughter. The
grass grows, tlie flowers bloom aid
the birds sing on the Sabbath. Eve
thing in nature Is Just as active then
us on any other day and there is
no law of nature that r iqtiires man
to separate himself front his Indivi
duality any portion of the week for
the purpose of practicing grave-yard
soliloquies.
Intolerance makes the Sabbath
a day of worthless reflections.
Respectfully yours.
E. T. CRITCHFIELD.

Former Senator Herbst
Dies After Long Illness
Hemline, 'Pa., Feb. 17.—Dr. Edwin
M. Herbst, who represented Berks In
the State Senate 16 years, and who
"in litis time was widely known in
Democratic councils in Pennsylvania,
died at his home at Frehlensburg,
this county, today, aged sixty-eight
years, after a long illness. He was
a graduate of Jefferson Medical Col
lege, Philadelphia, and for thirty
years was a prominent figure in
Berks polities.
WETS WILL MAKE
THEIR LAST ST AND
[Continued from First. Page.]
out tile churchmen's slogan a
few years ago of "a Saloonless Na
tion in 19 20." A bill passed by Con
gress brings the prohibitive period
ahead to July 1. To remove this
barrier to the saleof liquors a presi
dential proclamation stating that
the demobilization of tbc army had
been effected before that time would
have to be issued. That, however,
has nothing to do with the new
amendment to the Constitution of (
the United States which forbids the
manufacture and sale of distilled and
brewed liquors in the United States.
Tlie Swan Song
Why the liquor interests and their
representatives in Harrisburg de
sire to have Pennsylvania vote
against ratification When the issue
has been settled has never been
clearly defined. In the House of
representatives many members vot
ed against ratification when noth
ing was at stake. Since that time
some have expressed themselves as
regretting that action. The Senate
hearing to-morrow has been re
quested and granted and is the swan
song of the liquor activity in a big
i sense, in the Pennsylvania J,egisla-
I ture.
Whether the ratification Senators
' will answer the argument of those
' opposed to ratification has not been
stated; The "dry" senators are tak
ing an indifferent stand when tlie
hearing is mentioned and dismiss it
as unimportant. They will likely
have some representation present.
It is hardly likely that the "dry"
elements, who now possess con
siderable strength here, will oppose
the short term license bill whereby
liquor dealers only pay license fees
for the months they are actually
permitted to do business this year. I
The so-called business "fair jJlay" I
feature of that bill lias appealed to
many of the ratification legislators
| —but they demand that liquor not
attempt to dictate on legislative mat
ters not affecting the liquor busi
ness. If that is done the legisla
tive league formed Inst week with
Representative Robert L. Wallace
of Lawrence county aff chairman,
will fight back. It is figured that
any trouble that liquor meets with
in the session from now on will be
of the liquor crowd's making.
A public hearing will also be hsld
on Tuesday in the roads committee
of the House on the Ditlirich bill
which reorganizes the entire auto
mobile situation in Pennsylvania
from the standpoint of the amount i
of tax, size of trucks, chauffeurs re- 1
quirements and general matters re- j
lating to motors. It has ulready j
caused discussion in the automobile i
world.
In the judiciary special committee j
of the House to-morrow afternoon'
there will be a hearing on the oleo- !
margarine proposition based on the i
McCurdy bill reducing the license to I
sell oleomargarine. Grangers and
agriculturists in general have asked j
for. tli is hearing and the bill will be,
attacked from many angles.
high cost of living and "tlie pooin
man's butter" will be the chief argil- '
nients for the bill. It Is always a
red llag to the creamery interests,
and grange organizations and this
time they anticipate greater trouble 1
ilian usual in defeating the measure. 1
I Tlie Sinclair bill, which is not up j
I for a hearing to-morrow but which ,
i also deals with the oleomargarine!
j proposition wipes out the license!
fees entirely. Both McCurdy and I
Sinclair are experienced members
and with the cost of commodities
at present, a stronger figlit than in
former years will be made for tlie
lulls. The county members have
been able to stem the sentiment for
1 oleomargarine. This time their job
, is possibly a trifle harder but they
! claim to have the votes to upset
!the calculations of McCurdy mnd ,
; Sinclair, both of whom are san- |
guine their'bills will pass.
