Harvest Number and Current Events
By Editor
Our Harvest Number.—The song for the World's Harvest issue is a full page, with illustrated border, entitled, "Who Will Go Forth?" The words are by El Nathan; the music, by James McGranahan. It is excellent in sentiment and the setting is beautiful. This alone is worth the price of the paper, 10 cents. One of the severest tests ever given an automobile, or horseless wagon, was a trip from San Jose to the summit of Mt. Hamilton, a distance of twenty-eight miles up a winding mountain road 4,100 feet. The journey was accomplished in safety and comfort in five hours and twenty minutes, exclusive of stops, and the return, in three and one-half hours. How long will it be ere the horse is displaced?
The man who wants lynching legalized (and there is said to be one, and he a minister) is neither a patriot nor a Christian. If he were a patriot, he would have faith in the justice of his country's legal tribunals and executive authority. If he were a Christian, and had no faith in men, he would be willing to leave the determination of those cases in which human justice seemingly falls short, to Him who says, "Vengeance is Mine; I will repay."
