Frank Parker Stockbridge. nOe o the most popular songs among the doughbys of the A. E. F. Contains these stirring lines: "Ashes to ashes and dust to dust, If the Camels don't get you The Fatimas must." That is the way the boys over there poke good-humored ridicule at the anti-cigarette moralists. Perhaps there are American soldiers overseas they don't smoke cigarettes—either the real camels roll your own kind. If there are any such, however they have not yet been mentioned in the dispatches. The cigarette is as much a necessity in the maintenance of thatintangible but very real element we call morale as any other part of the soldier's necessary or incidental equipment, and when one considers what our cigarette-smoking army is doing and the workmanlike way in which it is doing it, it does seem as if the anti-cigarette cruders had very few legs left to stand on. It was a full generation ago that they began to assert, with much higalutin' emphasis, that the cigarette was undermining the manhood and sapping the vitality of American youth. Most of since the cigarette first became popular in America; most of since have been cigarette smokers from an even younger than the most ardent devotee of "MilLady Nicotine" regard as the proper age to begin smoking One of the most important services the organizations representing the United War Work Campaign are rendering in their great task of maintaining the link between thomers over here and the boys over there is the supplying of cigarettes. The figures are astounding. One organization alone shipped 848,785,802 cigarettes in the first year that our boys were on another side to say nothing of 32, 000,000 cigars and 2,500,000 packages of smoking tobacco. It is especially interesting also to note in the same list of shipment 14, 510,000 packages o f chewing gum. More gum than that is going over now since General Pershing has given his official indorsemen to the use of chewing gum as a means of conserving the drinking water supply while on the march and in the trenches. Chewing gum has also been the target for much abuse from the well meaning adult the gum chewers who are the targets for much of this criticism are not of the sex of which the A. E. F. is composed. We do not recall any serious attacks upon the use of chewing gum by the male coning. It is surprising that the German pres has not adduced this use of chewing gum by American soldiers a proof of the effeminacy of our fighting men. Not all of the $170,500,000 which the organizations combined in United War Work Campaign require to keep up their work for the next year is to be spent for cigarettes and chewing gum by any means, but the importance of these two items should not be overlooked. Anyone who does not approve of either may have the satisfaction of knowing that at least as much as his own particular contribution will be used for some other purposes such as books, baseball bats, doughnuts or dominoes, Indeed, the range of the activities and the catholicity of the appeal of the United War work Campaign are such that it is difficult to see how any good American can find and excuse for not giving. DEATH OF MRS. MARY ABSTON Mrs. Mary Abston, the wife of Mr. George Abston, died Oct. 20th at 5:17 am, at the residence of her father, Mrs. Robert Parham, at Guthrie, Ky.

H. HARRISON DELIVERED ADDRESS—TWELVE MILLION NEGREES REPRESENTED At a recent meeting of one of the National Race Congresses held in the District of Columbia, a delegation called upon President Woodrow Wilson. The spokesman for the delegation was Hon. Harrison, an attorney for the National Baptist Convention (unincorporated), formerly of Oklahoma, but now living in Chicago. Judge Harrison, as he is well and favorably known, has traveled to the thirstiest of war savings and liberty loan drives, and was selected as the spokesman for the occasion when the leading men of brain and thought were in attendance. Judge Harrison in addressing the President said: "Mr. President, twelve million faithful, courageous, patriotic, loyal and liberty-loving American citizens are your debtors for this conference. These twelve million American citizens realize and recognize the fact that these are the most crucial times, as well as the busiest times of your eventful life. They recognize the fact that in the great world war, the human tracydy of all times, the nations of the world are wont to look at and regard you as the big brother of all the earth. "The nations of the world recognize your farsightedness, sound judgment, humanitarian heart and comprehensive statesmanship, and are giving you the last word in all international matters, and for that reason the visit of these representatives must of necessity be brief. We represent the only race on earth whose color is prima facia evidence of human civilization and its loyalty, and we represent the only race on earth that has no German propaganda among them, no trifurators, no alien enemies and no spies. We came to reassure you as a matter of repetition that we are with you and with your every utterance directed to winning the great world war and bringing democracy to the oppressed of this earth. We are with you at home on this continent, and we are with you over there, for over there our boys have passed through their Gethsemani, their baptism of fire, their Golgotha's height, and some of them have been crucified on the mercy of the attorney that democracy might have life and have it more abundantly. "We come, Mr. President, to ask on behalf of these twelve millions that they be given a man's chance in all of the constitutional rights guaranteed and vouchsafed to them by the Federal Constitution and the constitutions of their states. We have observed, and now call your attention to the fact that discrimination on account of race and color, and segregation and Jim Crowism are practiced in some of the departments of state assisting you in winning this great world war. We can not think that you are advised as to such discriminatory treatment, and that the mere calling your attention to the fact is sufficient to have the same remedied. "We believe in the right of trial by jury, we are certain that Jim Crowism and mob violence are unAmerican, unhistoric, and are unwieldy on on behalf of these twelve million American citizens we pray the exercise of your good offices to the end that Jim Crowism, mob violence and any other wrong that tends to hinder us as a racial unit, not only be discouraged, but stopped. "Thanking you for this conference on behalf of these twelve million, we are very grateful." PRIVATE GEORGE DAVIS IN ERANGE Among the hundreds of Nashville young men who have gone over the seas with the thousands of Negroes now in France is Private George S.

SNOWDEN'S WORK IN SPRINGFIELD. ILL. Springfield, Ill.—The citizens of Springfield are much enthused over the splendid work just completed by Dr. W. Henry Snowden, in renovating and remodeling the New Hope Baptist Church, to which he was called as pastor fourteen months ago. After several months of preparation, the remodelled building was opened to the public on Sunday, October 13th, at which time Dr. W. W. Dewitt of Jacksonville, Illinois preached in the morning and at the evening services. In the afternoon the various colored pastors of the city were present and a timely and appropriate sermon was preached by Dr. M. L. Porter, pastor of the Pleasant Grove Baptist Church of this city. The church edifice of New Hope was built about seventeen years ago, and in 1905 Dr. W. Snowden was in a very bad state of repair. With a small membership and in the face of great odds, Dr Snowden planned an up-to-date church building, which under the direction of God and with the co-operation of his people he has been able to make a reality Improvements The building is located on the corner of Wright and Miller streets where concrete walks and cement foundations have been placed around the entire building. A new vestibule has been erected and a gallery placed at each end of the auditorium with the pupit placed on the east side of the building. On either side of the pupit has been erected a room for baptismal purposes. A pool has been placed under the pupit platform and everything made complete. A complete change in the lighting system has been made, with up-to-date electrical fixtures installed. A new elevated floor has been put in with new seats so arranged that the congregation faces the pupit from the north, south and west. The interior woodwork is in oak finish with the walls beautifully papered throughout. New windows of opalescent class have been installed. HON. W. H. HARRISON, Chicago, Ill. Splendid Co-operation Dr. Snowden is to be congratulated upon not only having won the respect and confidence of the entire membership of his church and community, but has received in his splendid undertaking, the active cooperation of his church officers, committees and members. Among those who have shared in a creditable way the burden of the work, are; J. B Osby, Stokes Hubbard, John Brown Henry Smith, Thos. Jackson, Millard Johnson, Frank Coleman, Robert Green, Henry Sallie, Robert White Rev. H. K. Wilson, Frank Chandler Robert Washington; Mesdames Nancy Coleman, Jennie Robinson, Lucy Rice mond, Minnie Osby, Bertha Smith Margaret Neal, Lizzie Brooks, Mamye Hodge, Mary Washington, Amanda Robert, J.

WM. STEVENS WRITES OR HELPFUL WORK OF Y. M. C. A. WASHINGTON EVENING STAR ON "THE COLORED TROOPS." "Tsis announcement is made: "Complying with the request of the recent conference of colored editors, the committee on public formation has designated a colored man, Ralph W. Tyler of Solumbus, Ohio, former auditor for the Navy Department, as a regularly commissioned war correspondent, to specialize on the conditions surrounding the colored troops in France and to make daily reports of the activities and engagements in white hite colored soldiers are promiscuous in the presence of Gen. Pershing commander, chief of the American Expeditionary Forces overseas. Every facility has been provided for the prompt and accurate gatherings of all facts that may be of interest to the colored people. "A step in every way commendable. The bearing of the colored troops abroad has not been overlooked, or minimized, in the news. On the contrary, it has been praised. Order in camp, diligence in the discharge of rountine and bravery in battle have all been mentioned. "Never the less, reports in future on this subject will be of greater interest to the colored people of America. In cases of the bravery that they bear the additional impress of one of their number—a man qualified for the work, and certified to the authorities abroad by the authorities at home. "And of greater interest also to the white people, who have not failed to note and appreciate the responses of the colored people to the calls of the war. No color line has run in that matter. According to their numbers and ability, the colored people have done well. They have offered themselves the opportunity for Army service. Secretary McMullen publicly complimented them for their activities in behalf of the Liberty Loans. "The war is growing and American troops, white and colored, are crossing the Atlantic in increasing force steadily. War news has the right of way in all American newspapers and is read by everybody. Trained men are busy collecting it. All war features are covered by them, facilities for doing their work are available to them. It is one of the most difficult and comprehensive tasks ever undertaken by modern journalism. "While the war lasts, therefore, the task should continue to be executed with due consideration for all printable details, and due appreciation of the performance of all participants. Americans on the firing lines are described as doing their best, and are eulogized by their European allies, not only for courage but competency. Hence, the more complete the stories that come to us from American troops abroad are doing, and how standing the strain of the conflict, the better the reading public—the whole public of both colors and conditions—will be served." LADIES THIMBLE CLUB The L. T. Club met Friday afternoon with Mrs. John Jumper. The meeting was opened in its usual form by the president, Mrs. Thomas Jennings. The roll called and each member responded with dues and verses from the Bible. Part of the afternoon was spent in needle work. The visitors present were Mrs. Brown and Mrs. Walker. They gave some helpful words to the club. Mrs. Jennings favored the club with service and donations. After all business, the hostess, assister by her two daughters served a tempting two course menu. After thanking the hostess for her hospitality the club adjourned to meet November 1st with Mrs. Joe Hyde. THE COLORED AMERICAN IN WAR. WORK. Issued from the Office of Emmett J. Scott, Special Assistant to the Secretary of War. Washington, D. C., Oct. 23.—There are now fifty colored chaplains in the United States Army. The September call for selective draffees, issued by Provost Marshal General Crowder, included 29, 016 colored men. In the total of 1,900,000 American troops sent overseas, a goodly proportion may be accredited to the Negro race. This total was given by the War Department officials at a recent hearing before the House Committee on Military Affairs. Many press reports, commenting on the American Army in France, intimate that the Germans have a wholesome fear of colored troops in action. General Pershing is lavish in his praise of the colored soldiers and has testified officially that they show marvelous coolness under shell fire, and an entire regiment, as well as individual colored soldiers, has been cited for decorations of honor. Preliminary to the recent session of the National Baptist Convention at St. Louis, a patriotic meeting was held at the Coliseum, in the course of 10,000 enthusiastic colored people proclaimed their loyalty to the United States. A long parade, a chorus of 300 voices and a program tured the celebration. MAURY COUNTY NEWS—COLUMBIA THE COUNTY SEAT A CITY OF ACTIVITY. Happenings and Doings Attracting Wide-Spread Attention—Spanish Flu Held in Check by Local Physicians Social and Personal Mention. Considerable interest is centered here in the coming meeting of the Executive Board of the Baptist State Convention, which meeting was postponed on account of the prevailing epidemic, but information from President Harding and Secretary Burns at Nashville give assurance that unless unforeseen obstacles arise, the meeting will positively be held November 27th, 28th and 29th.

Tunstall, Jr. an influx of distinguished divines representing the missionary Baptists from various sections of the state expire on October 31st. Not only will the men be in large numbers, but the representatives of the Woman's Auxiliary to the State Convention will also be in attendance. In fact the information is given out here that it will not be a stag affair because of the large sprinkling of the fair sex. In addition to this movement, of tion to this the movement of the colored troops, many of whom come from Maury County, is continuing to attract attention. It is said here the boys rothe mthese parts have participated in practically every drive in which the Americans under General Pershing have put on in France. Litle by little their deeds of heroism cross the deep blue sea and find their way to this county seat. In every meeting that has been held where the war is discussed "unconditional salary render" is the prevailing idea, giving strength to this sentiment. The Negroes went squarely on record by the part they played in the Fourth Liberty Loan. People in every walk of life, those with small means, as well as those rated as financial factors, supported the loan and subscribed the limit. ★★★★★ Mr. Mcee Martin of Maury County, whose home is at Columbia, is visiting relatives this week. He is the brother of Mrs. Cora Woods who is well and favorably known in this city. He stated this week he would leave for Camp Taylor at the end of the week. Mr. Martin, when here in civil life, was one of the respected young men of the community. He was regarded as a brilliant star, as it seems that God had given him excellent qualities. He has been stationed at Camp Taylor for some time and is expected to be sent over there real soon. Whenever he gets over there he expects to fight for world's democracy and make good. MEHARRY NEWS. The enrollment has passed the four hundred mark and still they come to enroll in the several departments at Meharry.

MILITARY TRAINING NORMAL STUDENTS PRESIDENT HALE MAKES AN- NOUNCEMENT — GRAMMAR STUDENTS ADMITTED—TWO COMMISSIONED OFFICERS AL- READY ON SCENE. Military training has been authorized at the State Normal, according to an announcement handed out by President W. J. Hale of that school. It has been known that thatshrdeuloo it has been known that the A. and I. State Normal school was being considered for the Students Training Corps all the summer, but just what the status of the training would be had not been determined. President Hale advocated a class of training that owl iduadmit students from the grammar schools. Since the state normal was in the main a normal and industrial school with manual teaming, the school authorities were working to impress the Government with the importance of giving to the young men of small opportunities who are mechanically and agriculturally inclined and who had but a limited literary training the same advantage from a military point of view as offered by the colleges. Already two commissioned officers with the rank of First Lieutenants have been to the State Normal and it was learned this week that a Major from the Nation's Capitol would be here within the next few days, together with an inspector General to make final inspection and to sign the papers, giving to State Normal a certificate as a member of the S. A. T. C. President Hale has been appointed just for having set the school in shape for immediate preparation for the enlistment of the students so that the boys' department could be transformed immediately into a training depar Those well informed on conditions assert that this is the first school in the South that will offer to the Negro bay of Unified education this superior advantage. While he enters at a very low grade, he will be given every kind of military and mechanical training up to that bordering on civil engineering. In order to push this work through, it is known President Hale spent much time in the East as a teacher in the study of the S. A. T. C. institute's en route. The full announcement of the Corps is to made as soon as the Government officials have put their find O. K. upon the plant. --- OKMULGEE, OKLA, NEWS Okmuglee, Okla.—The authorities of this city put the lid on tight and for the past two Sundays there have been no religious services of any kind.

Negro Press Association, 447 Fourth Avenue, North, Nashville, Teen. Dear Mr. Boyd: As you know, in any country war gives rise to extraordinary conditions. The things that tend to pull men down are very prominent at such a time. Morality, gambling and drink are among these. Many men give way to these things not because they prefer wickedness, but rather because usually the wicked things appear more attractive. The man who is far away from home and, therefore, away from his parents, his sister and brothers, his friends and acquaintances—away from the refining influences of his own fireside, too often becomes a victim of the things that are bad. What the soldier, under war conditions, would do without the Y. M. C. A. is, to a great extent shown by what he is going with it. Its tents and dugouts and huts are found everywhere over here, and the soldier seeks one of these places whenever he has leisure time. There he can lemonade coo, tobacco, doughnuts and pretzels, and be entertained movies and with high class artists from both Europe and America, receive mental, physical and spiritual instruction and always get a smile, an encouraging word and the "glad hand." Every private and every officer knows and appreciates the worth of the Y. M. C. A. Prot. J. C. Wright of Florida, who has been engaged in the work, will arrive in the United States some this month. He has been selected as one of those who are assist in the coming "drive" in November. Of course we over here are proud of this recognition and ```markdown ``` hope our people over there will show a proper appreciation for it by giving him every possible assistance. The Commander of this Camp, learning of the selection of Mr. Wright and appreciating our efforts here, gave me the following letter, which is, I am sure, a strong testimonial for the great work being done by the Y. Y. Orlean during this most extraordinary period it is self-explanatory and as is follows: "Headquarters Camp Montior, Base Section No. 1. Sent. 18, 1918 Mr. Wm. Stevenson. Sec. Y. M. C. A. Hut No. 2. My dear Mr. Stevenson: I understand that you are about to send a representative back to the United States to tell our people what the Y. M. C. A. I take this opportunity for add to his information, the observation of a soldier, of your great and grand work. I have seen the workings of your huts all along the line from the front line trenches to the Base Ports and have been a personal recipient of the comforts afforded by them on many occasions. I have always been impressed with the zeal with which the secretaries and others have presented their work and with their valour and bravery, for the work at the front cannot be done except by real red blooded men. I have been particularly interested in the activities of your hut, devoted exclusively to the interests of our colored soldiers, since my assumption of the command of this Camp and I congratulate you on the progress you have and are now making. Besides the splendid athletics, social and canteen services offered by yourself and your assistants, I have NASHVILLE GLOBE. FRIDAY OCTOBER 25, 1918. GEORGE C. TAYLOR, Republican Nominee for Railroad Commissioner, been much impressed by your activities in the educational departments, and have been much pleased to see many of our colored soldiers, who have had but few advantages of early education, availing themselves of the advantages offered by you in acquiring a knowledge of the elementary branches of education. Your thrift department is the means of many of our men saving their money and purchasing money orders to send back home thereby placing their money where it should be. Wishing you every continued and further success in your good work, I am faithfully yours, (signed) W. F. Creary, Colonel Infantry, U. S. A. Commanding. I have recently talked with numbers of soldiers who went through the battles of the Marne and Chateau Thierry. They have told me how they appreciated the work of the Y men who brought them to bacco, newspapers, etc. to the front line and of their invaluable service and encouraging words in the trenches and dugouts; and every one with whom I talked told me that he was a better man than he was before the war. An organization which can produce such men and women volunteers for every volunteer is a volunteer, soon working without pay, should receive unstintingly both the moral and financial support of every American citizen. The Y. M. C. A. "drive" will I. am advised come immediately after the Liberty Loan and will be polled with six other organizations. We know the people over there have given freely both their sons and their money, but we sincerely hope not one of them will overlook the opportunity to contribute to the war work fund of the Y. M. C. A. for it is the one great organization that is looking after the mental, physical and spiritual needs of our body. It uses them and implemented I could quote from letters of soldiers in which they express deep appreciation for services rendered them by the Y. I write in this way and at length because the subject is of tremendous importance, and because I feel that the people back home ought to be advised of the great work being done by the organization in question. Surely the soldiers of this war are receiving care and attention the like of which no other soldiers have ever received; and this is as it should be, for they are making better, the condition of the house in which their children and their children's children must live. To respond to the cell would not only be unfair to these valiant men who are fighting for a true brotherhood, but it would make it impossible for this host of Y workers to continue their labor of love. Hoping you are well and that I may hear from you soon, I am, with best wishes. Mrs. Victoria Clay-Haley, of St. Louis, is State Organizer for the Colored Women's War Savings Commission of Missouri.

Mrs. Everett professed a love in Christ in her youth and was baptized in the ruttledge Church, to which she proved to be a faithful Christian. About 20 years ago she came to Nashville to live, for 15 years was a faithful member of the Foster Chapel Baptist Church, under the leadership of Rev. G. B. Bolden. For HON. H. B. LINDSAY, Republican Nominee for Governor. a period og 5 or 7 years, she was a devoted mother of the church, Foster's Chapel has lost a loyal mother and a dutiful member. Well done the faithful servant. She was living with J. Pointer and daughter, near Nolensville at the time of her death. This family took great interest in her and cared for her until her death which occurred Thursday Oct. 10th 1918 at 1:30 p. m. she was afterwards removed to the residence of her brother, Mr. Sam Martin, 79 Fairfield street, where her funeral was held Saturday evening, 2:00 conducted by her pastor Rev.

When our Saviour shall cal his others. Peace be to your ashes and precious be your memory. saints, your spirit will come with DOING BIG THINGS. There was rolled up in the Fourth Liberty Loan Subscription not only a vast amount of money coming directly from the Negroes of Nashville, but enthusiasm in the way of an organization that is calculated to bring not only unity, accord of action among the constructive forces of the city of Nashville. This was evidenced by the prompt response to the call by the organization of the Fourth Liberty Campaign Committee DON'T DRINK Are you shocked to see the lady drinki You drink ships every time you use beverage.

The Committee in three days raised in round numbers fifteen thousand dollars in the Liberty Loan. But the startling total reported from the colored people throughout Davidson County is a result of the Campaign Committee and the representatives of the Negroes in the city and county reaching the sum total of more than two hundred thousand dollars. In their addresses to this organization Mr. T. Dwight Webb, Mr. V. S. Tuper, Mr. W. O. Tirrill, Mr. Arch Trawick and Mr. A. M. Truwick, were agreed in their earnest request that the organization notonly continue in its efforts, but that it enlarge so that it becomes a factor in any future campaign. It is acceded to and that a meeting is to be called at an early date. Among those who enlisted for permanent service and who form the basis of a standing campaign committee were the following: Rev, G. Bolden, W. W. Grant, J. D. Crenshaw, R. H. Boyd, E. W. D. Isaac, D. H. Swanson, W. S. Gray, J. C. Coldwell, J. B. Boyd, A. W. Fite, J. B. Singleton, J. J. Watson, Wm. Saunders, W. R. Boker, J. B. Booth, J. H. Ellis, W. F. Reynolds, T. J. Clinnion, Robt. Walker, J. C.

HOME FOR THE COLORED FEMALE WAR WORKERS It is highly encouraging to note that the cooled women of Chester, Pennsylvania, anxiety under the auspices of the Pennsylvania State Federation of Negro Women's Clubs, of which Mrs. Ruth L. Bennett, is Pres- ident and Mrs. Rebecca Aldridge of Pittsburgh, Pa. Honorary President, have purchased a building to be used as a home for women of the race who are doing war work in the many corporations in and near the city of Chester, Nenn. This property will also be used as a center for Governmental activities, viz: American Red Cross, Colored Women's Unit of the National Council of Defense, etc. This is the first effort on the part of the women in said city to do something definite along this partline, although the work is carefully ever since they were cared upon to help. This splendid achievement should be an inspiring example to colored women in every city where any appreciable group of them reside. A formal opening of the building in question will be held October 30th-November 1st. Hon Emmett J. Scott, Special Assistant to the Secretary of War, Miss Nannie H. Burroughs, Principal of the National Training School for Women and Girls, Washington, D. C., and other prominent persons have been invited to deliver special addresses upon said occasion. The officers of the Pennsylvania State Federation of Negro Women's Clubs are follows: Mrs. Ruth L. Bennett, President; Mrs. Laura A. Brown, Vice President; Mrs. R. Evelyn Payne, Recorded Secretary; Mrs. Ida S. Fink, Corresponding Secretary; Mrs. Fannie E. Morton, Treasurer; Mrs. Daisy E. Lampkin, Organizer. Chester is one of the leading manufacturing centers of Pennsylvania and a splendid opportunity for usefulness is open to the patriotic and aggressive colored women of the vicinity. Conservation estimates place the number of colored soldiers now in the United States army establishment on both sides of the ocean at little less than 400,000.

Hundreds of thousands of voters tn the United States regretted the de- feat of the Women's Suffrage Bill. ‘This defeat was brought about in the main through a failure on the part of several laiders to agree upon the amendment. ‘The Bill was known as the Susan B, Anthony Federal Amend- ment Bill and came up in the Senate for ratification. It was defeated be- cause a provision was injected into the bill {0 prohibit Nesro women from voting, ‘This very fact would have made the Bill unconstitutional, according to the latest amendment to the constitution. Since the defeat of the bill various comments from leading sutfragists throughout the United States have been made, One of the most strik: ing ones was that coming from Mrs. W. . Francis, the granddaughter of Mrs, Nellie Seay, one of the well Known and respectable citizens ot this city. It was printed in the Pioneer Press, a daily newspaper, of Oct. 7th, Mrs, Francis said: “Phe southern senators offered the suftragists the tempting (?) compro mise that the passage of the Anthony wamendment would be assured if the ‘suffragists would consent to the pro vision that Negro women would not be permitted to exercise the privi lego of the ballot, as granted to the white women of the country. ‘To the honor and credit of the suffragists be it written in the annals of history that the infamous proposal wa promptly turned down. Personally, ‘am not surprised at the high groun: taken by the suffragists. It is ex actly what I would have expected o suffragists, as T know them, and kee would have been my disappointmen if they had failed to make this saer fice, It is this broad stand, the act wal practice of the principles fo which they contend, that has inspire me to adil my humble effort to th struggle for equal suffrage. Suffre gists are the broadest group of whit women it has been my privilege t Aniow by observation or to be assc ciated with; and I have given thi phase of our problem no little stud ‘and consideration, ‘They are th modern abolitionists, and fortunat indeed is the Negro woman to hav in the suffragist_a champion who 4 willing to sacrifice all that is dea (and next to winning the war the tr umph of equal suffrage is dearest t the heart of the swfragist) rathe than accept a victory tained with di honor, “This broad, united stand of th suffrage body for the principles of democracy which must include blac women as well as white will win fo tho cause of suffrage many symp: thizers who would otherwise hav been indifferent to its success. Th cause of Suffrage will triumph, for is just.” Mrs, Francis was born and rears in Tennessee, her husshand ison of the leading attorneys in the Mi dle West. For more than twent years he was identified with the leg Gepartment of the Great Norther Rallway Company. WINNING THE WAR, ‘The Dudger System is or Shout! Be A War Measure Says Hon, Frank P. Woods of towa. Washington, D. C.—Hon Frank P. Woods, of Towa, a member of the present Congress, stirred the Com mittee of the Whole, whieh Is. com posed of the members of the House of Representatives while they had under consideration the Bil H.R. 12863 to increase the revenue and for other purposes. Coming from the state of Towa as he does jhe elicited marked attention and ‘his speech here is regarded as one of the most able presentations of facts, irrespective of party lines, that has heen delivered inthe House for sometime, Repre- sentative Woods said: Mr. Chairman, America is now a full partner in the greatest war in the history of the world. Her en- trance into the struggle has brought new courage, strength, and endur- ance into the war-worn armies of the allies, ‘Together they are now guard- ing the temple of individual liverty— American liberty. Ppon America falls the larger bur. den of maintaining and enlarging the allied man power, of feding those armies, and of finanring their opera- tions. "This is a war between nations, between people, not simply a strug: gle between arinies, It is up to the people here at home to be unceasing in the work of bringing governmental, industrial, and agricultural organiza- tion to the highest possible state of perfection. No man can say that he is with- out opportunity to assist in winning the war. ‘The grave problem confront. ing the American Government is a ‘problem equally grave to every Ameri- C. —_—_—_—_—_—_—_—_—_—_—_——_— can citizen, and if the citizen is to bear his share of the burden of Ameri- ean citizenship he must say to him- self, “The problems of my Government are’ my problems. It is my duty to understand these problems; to meet the just demands made upon me; to contribute in every thought, word ‘and deed to the common cause.” ‘The lesson we must teach the Old World monarchies is that a represen- tative republic, composed of 100,000,- 000 indusktrious peace-loving citizens, can defeat organized militarism and yet preserve though it al Ifreedom for the individual. To teach that lesson we must maintain the ideals of Amer! can Government. Ours is a repre- sentative government, and a depar- ture from government by the people through their chosen representatives would mean autocracy. We should not perinit polities to enter into the war, nor the war to enter into politics. ‘Theone is destructive of the efficient conduct of the war, the other destroys the fundamenta 1 ‘principles of our form of government. Therefore 1 am not in harmony with the policy of cer tain politicians who continually nag President Wilson in his efforts to prosecute th ewar, There can he no partisan patrio- tism. We must all make whatever’ sacrifices are necensary, These. sacrt fices must be made by the indivi dual, by the party organization, and| by political parties, to the end of win- ning the war at the earliest possible hour. ‘The one big thing that towers above all else in America, that must dominate the ideal, effort, and thought of every individual, and every organt- ‘ration, whether it be commercial, so- clal, or political, is to win the war, ‘The Republican Party is committed to this achievement and wil not swerve from this course, Tt evory act must have this In ylew, An_ economical Adininistration of tha affairs of govern: Hinent in the conduct of the war Wil "materially aid in its prosecution, The Republican Members of this House should advocate unanimously the en- | actment of certain constructive legis: |lation, and thus insure the support of the country In the coming election |'Phey can do this by uniting their | efforts to pas a law carrying out the | party platform pledge for the erea- | tion of a simple businesslige budget | system The last Democratic platform con: some time the adoption of a budget | system would be a wise measure, and | sug gests that an intermediate step be taken to open the way for such a | reform, Tt does not affirmatively ad | voeate the Immediate creation of the udget system.

So it is plainly apparent that nothing will be Gone by the Democratic Party look- ing toward the immediate creation of a budget system, It is therefore the opportunity and the duty of the Republicans as a party to act, and, so far as lies within {ts power, to redeem the pledge made In the na- tional Republican platform of 1916. ‘The Republican Party went on record in national convention in its platform of 1916 in favor of the es tablishment of a simple, businesslike system necessary to effect a needed reform in the administration of na- tional finances.

Mrs. Underhill's statement follows: "I have suffered for five years with lung trouble, and couldn't do anything at all. But fortunately, after trying everything else I heard of, I got Lung-Vita. I began taking it and improved from the beginning. I am now doing my work—all of it—even though I love it. I am feel good, and think that Lung-Vita is the finest medicine in the whole world. I can certainly say one thing—Lung-Vita has sure helped me and my husband."

There are so many so-called hair growers on the market, a large number of which are nothing more than people who get discouraged and lose faith in all hair tonics. In deciding what to use on your scalp be sure and get a remedy of proven merit. Sebey's Quinade is a highly medicated pomade that has stood the test of time; it is a real scalp food; it stimulates and nourishes the roots of the hair, causing a natural growth of long hair. Quinade is the invention of an expert chemist and is made under the supervision of a specialized pharmacist. It makes the hair soft and smooth and easy to put up in the style desired. To get best results from the use of Quinade it is necessary to shampoo the scalp about every two weeks with Seeby's Quinasea. Quinasea is made entirely out of pure vegetable oils, principally coconut oil, and is a thorough cleaner. Quinasea lashow and suffy and imparts a refreshing feeling to the scalp unequalled by any other shampoo. Do not accept any substitute, but insist on getting Seeby's Quinade and Seeby's Quinasea, asking for them by the full name. Price is 25 cents each. If your druggist or dealer does not have the two articles, ask him to obtain them from the wholesaler or send us the price and we will mail them to you.

Shall Congress regain its Constitutional powers? The next Congress will be a Reconstruction Congress. Convening on the fourth of March 1919, it will last until the fourth of March 1921. Without indulging in prophecy one may say almost to a certainty that his coming Congress will be hat one which will loom out of the history of the United States as the legislative body which first grappled with the vast after-war problem. Who can overestimate the importance of this Reconstruction Congress in the life of the nation during the coming era? His will be true whether or not the war over. Very few, if any, believe the war has lasted March 4th, 1921. Whether it does, or does not, the Congress to be elected on November 5th next will find pressing upon it ever increasingly the almost myriad problems of Reconstruction. Already even the present Congress has been forced to give a certain amount of attention to Reconstruction. This attention as yet has been comparatively superficial despite the fact that far-sseeing constructive Republican leaders have insisted upon it and within the past month have made a very definite effort to get something done in advance about Reconstruction before the period itself actually arrives. Those party leaders, especially those in the Senate, although in the minority, have realized that the United States is as unprepared for peace as it was unprepared eighteen months ago for war. Therefore they have devoted themselves to making plans to conserve for the nation in the coming peace all the benefits that should accure from a decisive military victory. They have realized that unless steps are immediately taken to bind up the wounds of war, to conserve the salvage from its wreck and to launch forth instantly thereafter into larger fields of human usefulness and social progress, that the shock of peace (and peace will come as a startling shock) may find the nation incompetent for a triumphant readjustment. These Republican leaders have well realigned that war today does not mean merely the winning of it. They well realize that unless the war means an improvement in the standard of every life in America, that unless it means better living conditions, finer equalization of opportunity for all and a co-ordinated improvement in the common lives of 110,000,000, it will have fought in vain. If it is going to mean commercial decision business, it may either upheaval, widespread of justified dissatisfaction among the masses as results that follow it, America will have lost the supreme effort she has made no matter what her military or diplomatic victory may be. Guided by this statesmanlike vision of the immediate future the Republican leaders in Congress for a long time have been considering what definite steps should be taken to meet Reconstruction more than half way. They did no twaint to wait until it was on top of them before ways and means had ben carefully thought out for obviating its perils, and for utilizing to the full every advantage it might offer. They were obliged to look on powerless at a series of delays and hesitations and half measures during the early period of the war itself, and they were determined that if possible this history should not be repeated in the early months of the coming peace whenever that might be. They were determined to revise the ancient formula and make their new slogan: "In time of war prepare for peace." Accordingly no September 27th John A. W. Weeks, of Massachusetts, in behalf of the Republicans introduced in the Senate the now celebrated resolution calling for the creation by Congress of a committee of Reconstruction. This Republican idea provides that a bi-partisan committee of twelve the Republicans and three Democrats from the Senate with three Republicans and three Democrats from the House, shall be immediately appointed to understand an investigation of all the problems that are likely to come under the head of Reconstruction; that all available data shall be used to determine the Reconstruction for legislation be prepared for Congress. In this way the ground work will be prepared and the underbush cleared away from the tangle of complication which the nation now faces. The shortest way to get an idea of what Reconstruction means (a subject on which volumes have been written and on which many more will be prepared) is to enumerate the classification contained in the Republican Reconstruction bill as follows: 1. Problems affecting labor, including: (a) Unemployment which may follow war. (b) Utilization of discharged soldiers in civil employment. (c) Conciliation and arbitration of labor disputes. (4) The relation of men and women in similar employments. (g) Requirements for labor after the war, both in agricultural and industrial occupations. (h) Distribution of labor. (i) Employment of surplus labor on public works that may be constructed or completed. 2. Problems affecting capital and credit, including: (a) All matters relating to trusts and combinations. (b) Federal loans to private enterprises. (c) Federal supervision of capital discuss. 3. Problems affecting public utilities, including: (b) All questions relating to communication by wire. 4. Problems resulting from the demobilization of our industrial and military war resources, including: (a) The disposal of scurpus Government properties and supplies in this country and abroad. (b) The conversion of munition industries into those of peace. (c) The demobilization of the war strength of the army and navy, and the disposition of the men SCHOOL A little recreation in the sailors' rest room of the American Red Cross Branch No. 6 of the New Orleans Chapter. Branch No. 6 is run for soldiers and sailors. It is located on the ground floor of the Colored Pythian Temple. who have been in the service. (d) The demobilization of the war civil workers. 5. Problems affecting our foreign trade including: (a) The development of new markets. (b) Combinations for the purpose of increasing our selling facilities. (c) Changes in our banking facilities necessary to cooperate with such trade. 6. Problems affecting the continuance of existing industries and the establishment of new industries, including: (a) The supply and control of raw material. (b) The encouragement of the reproduction in the United States of articles that have not bee made in this country heretofore. he will discover that the chief difference is that the Republican bill states definitely what it proposes to do, while the Democratic (Overman) bill generalizes. But the fundamental difference is that the Democratic bill calls for a commission appointed by the President, while the Republican resolution would properly place in the hands of Congress the reconstruction program. It is well to consider very carefully what this means. It means that if the Democratic bill goes through giving the majority of Democrats their way, five men chosen by the President, and responsible solely to him, will have complete charge of the preliminary work of reconstruction; and the preliminary work may well be the most important and the most far reaching work of all, for, whatever schedule is laid down in the beginning concerning any of these problems executive ones excepting so far the imperative necessity of war the measures should demand it. Yet t Democratic Bill seeks to perpetuate this condition which has been accepted as one merely temporary. The fact that this construction must be placed upon its meaning further emphasizes its direction, both in intention and in effect. Its true meaning is the Congress the solving of the Reconstruction problem; it seeks indirectly to extend indefinitely the Presidential war powers; it indirectly sees to add complication, delay and decision to a problem in which the chief element to overcome is that time itself. In this it is a typical Democrat measure; Democratic in its indication as it is Democratic in its generalization; Democratic in its verse opportunity for fairness due as it is Democratic in its specious purpose for war it. (c) The encouragement of private enterprise in the development of the resources of the public domain. (d) The utilization of a traffic on imports as a means to protect and encourage home industries. 7. Problems relating to agriculture, including: (a) Price fixing of food products. (b) Federal loans to farmers. (c) Distribution of food products. (d) The allotment of lands to returned soldiers and sailors, and their establishment in new homes on the public domain. 8. Problems affecting the adequate production and effective distribution of coal, gasolene and other fuels. 9. Problems relating to shipping, including shipyards, especially those bearing on the sale, continuance of ownership or leasing of both yards and ships. 10. Housing conditions and the disposition of houses constructed by the Government during the war. 11. War legislation now on the statute books, with reference to its repeal, extension or amendment. 12. And in general all matters necessarily arising during the change from the activities of war to the pursuits of peace, including those that may be referred to it by the Senate or House of Representatives. Although the Republicans were first as they always have been in proposing constructive legislation, the Democrats could not long ignore a mater of such obvious and commanding importance. Immediately after the introduction of the Republican Reconstruction Act, they found that the only way to defeat it was to introduce some similar proposal which would nullify it, and thus again force Congress into procrastination on a vital subject. Accordingly, five days later, on October 2nd, there was introduced by Senator Overman, a Democrat from North Carolina, a bill providing for the appointment of a Commission on Reconstruction. The problem to be addressed was that the Commission is similar to those covered in the Republic's resolution, as may be seen by examination of the following pertinent wording of the Overman Bill: (a) The financing, regulation, control and development of the merchant marine. (b) The development, financing, expansion and direction of foreign trade. (c) The re-organization, financing and readjustment of industries engaged in war work by way of reconverting them to normal production. (d) Technical education and industrial research as a means of developing and strengthening of industry. (e) The redistribution and employment of labor in agricultural and industrial pursuits and the problems of labor growing out of demobilization. (f) The supply, distribution and availability of raw material and foodstuffs. (g) The conservation and development of national resources. (h) Inland transportation by rail and water. (1) Communication by telephone, telecomm and wireless (i) The reorganization of Government in the statutes. (1) The reorganization of Government departments, bureaus, commissions or oices with a view to putting the Government on an economical and efficient peace basis. (k) The consolidation of such acts and parts of acts of Congress which relate to the same subject matter, but which now appear at various places in the statutes. If one will study the list of problems enumerated in these two bills, NASHVILLE GLOBE. FRIDAY OCTOBER 25, 1918. BILLIARD Sailors playing pool in the rest room of Branch No. 6, New Orleans Chapter of the American Red Cross. Branch No. 6 is run for soldiers and sailors. It is located on the ground floor of the colored Pythian Temple. he will discover that that chief difference is that the Republican bill states definitely what it proposes to do, while the Democratic (Overman) bill generalizes. But the fundamental difference is that the Democratic bill calls for a commission appointed by the President, while the Republican resolution would properly place in the hands of Congress the reconstruction program. It is well to consider very carefully what this means. It means that if the Democratic bill goes through giving the majority of Democrats their way, five men chosen by the President, and responsible solely to him, will have complete charge of the preliminary work of reconstruction; and the preliminary work of the most important and the most far reaching work of all, for, whatever schedule is laid down in the beginning concerning any of these problems would have an extraordinary influence in shaping the immediate future of this nation for good or bad. The centralization of power in the executive during the war is a natural and needful temporary expedient of our democracy. But lest in our fight to establish democracy abroad, we lose it at home, no voter should fail to set his face like flint against any move to make such centralization permanent or to reduce representative government which is the foundation of our democracy to being a curio of American history or to make Congress a debating society like the old Duma of Russia was and like the Reichstag of Germany is. No matter how wisely this centralized power might be exercised by one man, we would have lost our constitutional guarantees of liberty, freedom and true democracy perhaps for all time. Furthermore, if the Democratic bill is passed a partisan control (and perhaps only a fraction within the Demo a complete graps of the prospective a complete graps of the prospective legislation covering the many phases of the Reconstruction problem that Congress, to save time, might be compelled to adopt the entire program But if the Republican measure (as Senator Paulen forcefully points out) should be adopted, a very different situation would exist. Congress itself directly would control all faces of the reconstruction prism Congress would be empowered to make its own investigation, control its own information, to verify instantly all the facts presented for its consideration and to promptly recommend and forthwith to enact such legislation as might be deemed wise, following these preliminaries. In short, this would insure the proper control by Congress of the legis lative functions granted to it by the constitution. It would signalize the first achievement in the great Reconstruction problem by beginning with the Reconstruction of Congress itself in bringing back to those functions in the country freely the war necessities to the Chief Executive. It has never been contended by any one that the Chief Executive should encompass the legislative powers of the Government within his own proper executive ones excepting so far as the imperative necessity of war time measures should demand it. Yet the Democratic Bill seeks to perpetuate this condition which has been accepted as one merely temporary. The fact that this construction must be placed upon its meaning further emphasizes its indirection, both in intention and in effect. Its true meaning is this: Congress the solving of the Reconstruction problem; it seeks indirectly to extend indefinitely the Presidential war powers; it indirectly seeks to add complication, delay and decision to a problem in which the chief element to overcome is that of time itself. In this it is a typical Democratic measure; Democratic in its indirection as it is Democratic in its generalization; Democratic in its diverse opportunity for fatuous delay as it is Democratic in its specious plea to the nation's loyalty for war time power without any adequate assurance that there is no eventual anterior object. On the other hand, studying the Republican resolution ably backed by Senator Poindexter and others, one will find that there is nothing parisian about it. It is essentially American, broadly constructive in its vision with no possible anterior thought of partisan advantage. Moreover, the Republican resolution embraces the after-war needs of every class and of every phase of life and industry in America. It is found on the broad principle that a new nation must be built out of the ashes of war that while we can never reproduce in the future the conditions that existed before the war, that we must not lose or forsake any of the good that we have been obliged temporarily to sacrifice in our consecrated purpose of cheving a superlative military victory. It aims specifically to guard the interests of the laborer, the farmer, the business man, the professional man and the interests of each in his manifold relations to his fellows. It seeks to safeguard every freedom of opportunity that ever has existed in America, while it opens new vistas of freedom heretofore unknown. While it thinks in terms of the nation as regards the nation's great enterprise, the shipbuilding, railroad operation and so on, it alms to so adapt their intensified war relations to the quick changes of peace that not a dollar will be lost, no small business man bank rupt. no large business man embarrassed, no laboring man compelled to meet the terror of unemployment, no 'laboring woman unjustly denied the means of livelihood that war has in many instances forced upon her. Above all, it seeks to open adequate fields of opportunity for the millions of young men who have fought the great fight, the loss of which would have meant the loss of everything, and the winning of which would mean winning of nothing unless those who had had the most to do with achieving it were granted in the name of the country, and every opportunity which they temporarily foreworse that they might carry on the flag of the Republic. The Republican resolution does not consider that the solution of these problems, forming the very marrow of the country's necessities, should be left at this time to one party. It provides that the best brains, the best experiences, the best visions of both parties be utilized in properly considering every phase, every jot and tittle of evidence that may be brought forward in the experience of other countries, as well as in the experience of our own. It provides that the best and most complete light may be shed upon these questions before they are settled to the end that when they the nation enters in respect to reconstruction will be made a half-haked program of party theory and part undigested practice; but that it may be instead the enlightened twentieth centr program of that nation whose ability, force and wealth should make it the first leader of the world. There is but one way in which the solution of the Reconstruction problems can be made non-partisan. That is by making them bi-partisan. They can only be made bi-partisan if the coming Congress is Republican. Otherwise, if the coming Congress is not Republican and the eOverman Bill or a similar measure is put through by the Democrats, Reconstruction will be a party problem or possibly even less than a party problem; possibly a problem for a certain limited influence within the Democratic party. But, if the Republican plan for handling Reconstruction problem can be made a law (and a guaranty of this will occur only in the election of a Republican Congress) then not only the best Democratic brains, but also the best Democratic brains in Congress would be utilized in determining ways and means to insure the nation's social and economic future. In pulling this vast load called Re-construction, it may again be said that Uncle Sam has two horses. Under the Overman Bill he may use only one; the Republican resolution would harness both the horses to the load and then, cracking the public whip above their backs, would call upon both to se which could pull the harder, just as the Republicans have striven and are now striving t oaid in hauling the country's war load. Issued by THE SERVICE BUREAU FOR PRESS AND PLATFORM. REPUBLICAN COMMITTEE. THE SHOCK OF PEACE. May not the empty dinner pall appear when peace comes and war orders stop? How and why a Republican Congress will avert possible panic. When will the war be over? Millions in their hearts hope that it may be soon, but the thinking man may well fear the consequences of peace which finds us unprepared. Let us picture the arrival of peace. All the world's millions will be wild with joy. The expectation of sacrifice, privation and death will be supplanted with a frantic relief. The look ahead down the long hard road of war instantly will be wiped out an din its place will come happiness and a new atmosphere filled with rosy visions. But, oh! the cold, gray dawn of the morning after, when we bathe our heads in ice common sense an aface the facts of a world half-destroyed, of cities uprooted, of manufactures diverted from their normal course, of industries all twisted from their old foundations, of whole populations deflected from the wonted ways they must again learn to travel. Let us be selfish for a moment and blot out the awful picture of Europe. Let us consider only our own United States which war has as yet apparently so lightly touched. Do you realize that at least ten millions of laborers are employed to-day in filling war orders in making munitions and in supplying with food, clothing and otherwise, our armies in the field? Do you realize that on the declaration of peace the United States will have in uniform in the army and navy four of five million men? What will happen to affect these soldiers and their laborers? The first thing probably will be the cancellation of war orders. Every factory, every industry organized on a war basis will be obliged, in the space of a few days, to place itself on a peace basis and in doing this it will face the stark unknown. If there are two million or more American soldiers in France it may require two years to bring them all home, but many of them will return unarmed in a cannon while, and this as a peace is declared, those assembled in cantonments in this country may be disbanded. What are these soldiers going to do, their former ocu-pationes largely gone, and coming back to a world where industries are partly if not wholly stagnant, where HAMPTON INSTITUTE Students' Army Training Corps Hampton, Virginia The U.

We are floating now in the high tide of an artillery war commercial activity. How many have saved the extra wages earned? How many are ready to meet a protracted period of unemployment? Of course, employers will make every possible haste to switch their factories over to peace products and to reconnect with peace markets and peace customers. But all this takes time. Each man should ask himself,—what has he saved, what place has he ready to jump into when the one he now occupies is taken from him either by the shutting down of the work or by the return of soldiers to whom the country owes first care. Remember, too, that this shock of peace will hit us at the moment when the cost of living is at its pinnacle. Never before in our history will bread have cost so much, never before in our history will clothing, fuel and the essentials of life have been so high. Millions will face on one side the chasm of unemployment and on the other mountain peak of the highest prices ever known for living essentials. What will happen when demagogues may appear on every hand to preach anarchy and fear and envy and distrust, and when the demagogue has for an audience not only those of his own likk but the vast army compelled against its will to be idle and hungry? Then through the streets of the cities may be heard the hollow clink of the empty dinner-pail. Then through the stagnant factory aisle mayander the underfed workers. Then will millions call upon those who have been temporarily their rulers for a terrible accounting. That we may have a better idea of what this initial era of peace may be, let us go back to the panic of 1893. Let us take from history one startling essential fact. The consumption of wheat in 1893 was largely re Think what it means to have a large part of the normal amount of wheat bread taken from the millions, the hundred millions! Bread is the last thing which a human being denies himself. If the people are buying less than their ordinary amount of bread, how much less do you imagine they will purchase of automobiles or furs or diamonds? If people are forced to buy less than their normal supply of bread, what becomes of the steel industry, what becomes of the coal mines, what becomes of the thousands of factories manufacturing every conceivable kind of material, what happens to the transportation facilities that convey the freight which are composed of these materials what happens to the banks who supply the credit which supplies the money to meet the pay-roll of these industries, of these factories, of these transportation systems? What happens in such a condition to the farmer when he looks for a market for his crops and finds that the bank, having contracted its credit has contracted every phase of industry so that no one is able to buy to the extent he once did the food the farmer grows? What happens to the farmer when the prices of the foodstuffs fall lower and lower and there is no desirable market even for the little which he half-hearted. That which happens to the farmer, to the laborer, to the business man, to the clerk, to the professional man, to the financier is that that which happens to the entire complicated structure of the nation. It is panic. It happened in 1893, in a Democratic administration, and the effects of it were felt in this country JAMES E. GREGG, Principal WHY NOT?

It is not the purpose here to righten. It may be necessary first to frighten so that we may realize that the situation this country may face is imminently dangerous. But unless this fright produces a constructive action nothing is accomplished. If we are not frightened that we may be prepared, then we continue in idle dreams of the automatic prosperity of peace, until stern reality overtakes us. Now is the time to prepare for Reconstruction. For practical purposes we can read the lesson for to-morning in the pages of yesterday. The Republican party, always constructive possessing the ablest brains in America, rescued the nation from the consequences of the panic in 1893, and established the broad, deep, sound foundation of the national prosperity which has in this present time made us the first nation in the world. Now again this same Republican party must be brought to this commanding service that is required for the terrific era that shortly will be upon us. The Republican party always has been the preparedness party. For years it advocated and agitated for war preparedness. It is now strenuously advocating peace preparedness. The Republican party realizes that the problems of peace will outmaster the problems of war. It realizes that the war is merely the preliminary era from which this nation is to be projected into the fiercest economic strife of all time. We have had pains in the past. It is not necessary that any of them should be repeated in the era that is coming. It is better to present their possibility now and to provide them than it is to say that waiting and to do nothing will be too late. The dinner pad could never be empty. The table had not be depressed. That industry should not be paralyzed by peace it is vitally necessary that the proper provision be made at the present time for these exceedingly grave problems of Reconstruction. It will be fatal to wait until they are actually upon us. The Republican party, true to its history of constructive statesmanship, for it has been called upon always to rescue the nation from financial panic, already has laid the ground work by presenting in Congress the Weeks Resolution calling for the appointment of a Committee on Reconstruction. If this fails it passes the present Congress and if the next Congress is Republican, then its provisions may be carried out immediately and the necessary legislative steps will have been taken to avert the perils of The United States to-day stands on the threshold of the open door. Beyond lies the smiling plain of peace. But the plain will prove to be a mrage, unless experienced, competent guides are instantly found to take us across it. The Republican party alone is competent to construct the bridge across which the nation may safely pass from a victorious war to a prosperous peace.

By Bruce Barton. I will tell you what will happen some night this winter in France. Some night, it's cold and dark. There will be a fence through the front line trench, where our stand guard. And a heavy inden- Secretary will make his awful alow. In his hands will be great steaming pots, in his pocket chocolate and cigarettes. From one man to another he will go, passing a cup full of hot coffee to hands that tremble with the cold; and the comfort of a bit of sweet and a smoke. Men will hall him cheerly, slapping him on the back; and when he has gone things will be a little easier in that trench because he has passed that way. How much will it cost to make that trip, do you suppose? Counting the pitiless cost of the Secretary is paid, and the cost of the chocolate and the cigarettes and all? Five dollars? Twenty-five dollars? I do not know. But whether it is five dollars or twenty-five, I'd like to think that it is my five or twenty-five—wouldn't you? That some night when it's cold and lonesome, my money and yours might send a Secretary out along the frontline trench. Let's make up our minds that we are going to pay for a score of those trips.

SERVICE THAT WINS THE SOLDIER HEART Fred Lockley, Y. M. C. A., Tells of the Gratitude of the Boys at the Front. "One of the discoveries men are making over here," Fred Lockley, of the Y. M. C. A. and of Portland, Oregon, writes from London, "is that more pleasure can be had out of giving than getting. Many a man who has spent money freely in the old days to buy pleasure is finding that he gets more pleasure over here by the spending of one's self in the service of others. "A few months ago I went out with a fellow Y. M. C. A. secretary to hunt up on the-way detachments of troops. A stable guard here, a machine gun company there, a platoon somewhere else. We carried our goods in an automobile. We had plenty of writing paper and envelopes for free distribution, and chocolate toes, chewing tobacco and smoking tobacco, razor blades, tooth paste and thirstie kind for sale. American war service workers were busy everywhere. We found Salvation Army lays making doughnuts for the boys and K. of C. secretaries giving help. Books furnished by the American Library Association were to be seen on all sides. "Hearing firing at a distance, we drove down the road and found a score or so of men at machine gun practice. The officer gave the men half an hour recess to buy goods. At an earlier place we came in sight of an utterer place on platoon, said to the lieutenant: "How soon before you dismiss the company? We have Y. M. C. A. goods for sale." "He said: 'Right now. Sergeant "He said: 'Right now. Sergeant, dismiss the company?' In seconds later the company was in the waiting to buy goods from our traveling Y.' Grateful is no name for it. 'The men can't do enough to show their gratitude.'

With millions of American men on war fronts, in training camps and on the seas and with thousands of American women on foreign soil, all engaged in the stupendous task of making the world safe for democracy, a great duty devolves upon those who remain in the United States,—the duty of sending Home to those who have Home to them for the period of the war. The assemblies through which this can be accomplished are joined in the United War Work Campaign. From being given the cigarette or chocolate bar, with which he stays his hunger in the fury of battle, to the theatrical entertainment or the athletic games, which relax him into normal comfort after weeks of terrific combat, the American fighter is dependent upon the continued efforts of M.C. to lead the National Catholic War Council and K. of C., the War Camn Community Service, the Jewish Welfare Board, the American Library Association and the Salvation Army.

Through diocesan, county and parish organizations, the rallying of one youngster for every man who has gone to war in every community is already under war.

Boys and girls in every Catholic parish throughout the United States are already being picked to represent each fighting man who has left their church for the front.

War Camp Community Service, Jewish Welfare Board and Salvation Army have to furnish 125,000,000 sheets a month for soldiers' letters. Hundreds of books are taken out in this small camp, books furnished by the American Library Association and handled by the Y. M. C. A. Most of the demands are for a good class of fiction. Thirty American newspapers are required. One hundred on the radio and fifty magazines are in use daily and 400 pieces of athletic equipment furnished by the "Y" are put to good use. 800 WOMEN NEEDED BY SALVA TION ARMY. Commander Evangeline Booth Says War Relief Work Must Be "The Salvation Army was born in hardship, reared in privation and trained to every phase of human misery and how to cope with it. Perhaps that accounts in some degree learned the lesson or how to do it and for which we are thankful. "We are of the common people, and we toil on a practical basis. We for the success our work has attained in the Boer war, when we stood at the side of Britain's troops and weathered it out to the end. We have been tried by fire, and the mothers and fathers of Africa, in other places, trust the Salvation Army to do the thing they would like to do for their men if they but had the chance. "With 1,210 trained workers at the front, operating from 420 huts and dugouts, the Salvation Army is doing has done and will continue to do its best for the cause of humanity and Liberty." CURE FOR BLUES NEAR THE CAMPS. Community Service Takes Place of Mother, Friends and Home for Ten young officers of the Student Army Training Corps of the University of Detroit recently applied for a furnished room and a housekeeper who would not be a servant, but, as one young officer expressed it, "the sort of woman to whom the boys can call out, 'Hello, mother!' when they come in the front door." Homesickness is the malady for which War Camp Community Service supplies innumerable cures. "We've got your number," says the W. C. S. to the housekiss boy from camp with lieure to spend in any one of the three hundred towns scattered over the country. While he's wondering what on earth he'll do with himself when he gets there, not knowing a soul in town and with a limited percentage of his "thirty per" in his pocket, along comes a friendly printed card from the local branch of his own lodge announcing a reception that night especially for soldier members. By the same mall the Methodist curse sends an anguish all its members addressed to him, with "This Means You" printed at the bottom. How did they know he was a Methodist? He had forgotten about the little "Personal Card" he made out at the adjutant's request during his first day in camp when it was only one of the endless details in the round of dentists and doctors and general confusion. The W. C. C. S. had not only his number, but his name and address, his home town, the name of the school he'd gone to and a good bit about the things he was fondest of doing—each fact written into a little blank on the card especially for it. ```markdown ``` MILLIONS FOR WAR WORK
