Windshield Smashed As Horse Hits Car
Kansas City, Kan.—(U.P.)—An automobile was the victim of a hit-and-run house in an accident reported by Wyoming County sheriff Roy A. Ferguson.
Robert Pennington, 19, and two companions riding with him, said a horse galloped into the right side of their car at a rural intersection. The animal's head plunged through the windshield, and the car's top, right side, and dashboard were dented. Mr. Ferguson said he thought damage to the car would come to $159. Extent of injuries to the horse could not be determined, since it had not been found. Mr. Pennington said however; that it "recovered its balance and galloped off."

Christians Must Take Part In Politics, Martin Says
In matters pertaining to moral welfare the protestant churches should make known their beliefs to the government, Dr. A. B. Martin, president of Ottawa university, told those attending the "skeptic's hour" Tuesday.
"Christians can not stand apart from the social order," Dr. Martin said. "They must participate in politics." This can be done, he pointed out, by ministers speaking out from the pulpit and encouraging members to express publicly their views.
One student inquired if since our life in the United States is built on the incentive motive and selfishness, does this conflict with the Christian idea of love? The university president replied that in America this is an inherent contradiction. He added,
At the informal discussion in the Union lounge numerous questions and answers were presented by both Dr. Martin and the students.
One of the liveliest discussions revolved about the problem of discrimination in the churches. Dr. Martin stressed that there is "a growing feeling that race discrimination is un-Christian." The group decided that one of the major reasons why discrimination persists is that Christians do not live up to the principles in which they profess to believe.
however, that just making profit does not imply selfishness.
