SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 2, 1918. "NOTHING LAUGHED AT NOW." NOTHING LAUGHED AT NOW.' The following excerpt, under the above caption, from the Chicago Tribune, expresses ideas so much like our own, that have been engendered by the wonderful achievements of recent years, that we publish it with much pleasure because it is along the lines of our own ideas and we are glad to find we are in such good company: "The Hon. Joseph Gurney Cannon seemingly expressed the sentiment of congress when he said, voting for the experiments with 'garabed,' that he had made a fool of himself when the Langley flying machine appropriations were being considered years ago in the house and he did not intend to be found in the way of anything scientific again. "The senate has again passed the bill for the experiments with 'garabed.' a means—it is desiried—of utilizing cosmic force to win the war. The inventor, a man excellently recommended and accorded reputation for unimaginative science, avers his ability to employ unutilized forces of nature, and congress is willing to give him the chance to do so. "What congress reveals is the disinclination to affirm any disbelief in any humanly contrived miracle. Too many marvels are in the air and under sea, at work in laboratories and in the field, for a healthy skepticism to exist. Congress is in the typical human mood. If any one says that a cosmic force can be harnessed congress will go after the harness and sit by to see the work out. Cannon laughed at Langley. That was his last laugh at the impossible. WAR SAVINGS CERTIFICATES The new war savings certificates will bear 4 per cent interest, will run for a term of five years and will be issued in denominations as low as $5. They are to be just what their names indicate, "savings" certificates, a means of investment for small savings, so that the money will be safe and profitable and at the same time affording the government the use of it. It is planned to sell the certificates to the public on the installment plan by using stamps that may be purchased and pasted in a book for that purpose. When there are sufficient stamps to cover the cost of a certificate the book can be exchanged for one. The stamps ```markdown ``` J. Q. ADAMS, Manager. THE SIN OF SILENCE To sin by silence protest makes cover The human race has test.

The human race has climbed on protest. Had no voice been raised against injustice, ignorance and lust, the inquisition yet would serve the law, and guillotines decide our least disputes. The few who dare must speak and speak again to right the wrongs of many.—Ella Wheeler Wilcox. will be placed on sale in every town and city in the country. The individual who has money laid by for a rainy day need have no hesitation in converting it into war savings certificates, since the government will redeem them at any time upon the request of the holder, allowing interest at 4 per cent. Under this arrangement the investor in these certificates will have the satisfaction of knowing that if any emergency should arise in his family, such as sickness or death, he could immediately realize upon his certificates. It is a safe prediction that the war savings certificates will go like "hot cakes." Their small denomination, the good interest rate, the terms upon which they may be purchased, the fact that they are not subject to taxation when held by persons of small means—all will make them an attractive investment. Working people whose margin of income above expenses is narrow at best will find in them an excellent incentive for beginning the prudent habit of saving. They will be popular for Christmas presents. School children will be able to invest part of their little weekly allowances in certificates. As a result many millions will be transferred to the Federal Treasury and through it will flow into the channels of trade, while the people of small means will be made to feel that they, too, are doing their share toward helping their country win the war. THE ONLY SOLUTION: Recently at the Church of England Congress at Southampton, Sir Sidney Olivier, who was governor of Jamaica from 1907 to the end of 1912, put forward the claim that no solution of the American color question was possible except by a resolute disclaimer of the color line and the race differention theory. Sir Sidney Olivier certainly knows what he is talking about. In the island of Jamaica, where he was governor for five years, there are about 800,000 colored people and only 20,000 whites and yet there is absolutely no friction between the races. Jamaica is a British colony and the government is just. Colored men enjoy every civil and political right which white men have and there is no color line. Among other things Sir Sidney said: "My study and comparison of conditions in the United States and the West Indies," he said, "has brought me to that conclusion. American and colonial politicians and public men are not Exeter Hall abolitionists nor evangelical Christian missionaries. I do not expect them to adopt the methods of missionaries, nor do I sympathize with all their programmes. But it cannot be ignored that it happened that the faiths of the men who laid the foundations for the peaceful development of the mixed community in Jamaica were democratic and humanitarian and, above all, uncompromisingly Christian. "Were race differentiation held to it must increase civil discord. When the balance of numbers is as it is in the South in America it must tend to foster obscure preparations for civil war and rebellion. If statesmen and citizens face in the contrary direction I do not say that they will attain immediately civil peace, but I am confident that they will be traveling the only road toward it. " I do not suggest that race does not greatly affect facilities for combination between humans in healthy national life, but race difference is only one of many schismatic agencies. The solution of the difficulty involves THE MAN WHO DARES I honor the man entious discharge o stand alone; the w intolerant judgment the countenances o averted, and the he cold, but the sense be sweeter than th world, the countena the hearts of friend I honor the man who in the conscientious discharge of his duty dares to stand alone; the world, with ignorant, intolerant judgment, may condemn, the countenances of relatives may be averted, and the hearts of friends grow cold, but the sense of duty done shall be sweeter than the applause of the world, the countenances of relatives or the hearts of friends:—Charles Sumner. once when we should wards out of men. us climbed on pro- been raised against me and lust, the in- serve the law, and our least disputes. we must speak and right the wrongs of her Wilcox. discipline for the white man as well as the black." CONVERTING THE ESKIMO. Christian missionaries seem to have made little headway in converting the Eskimo in the far north, according to Donald B. MacMillan, head of the Crockerland expedition, who has recently returned to New York, after four years in the Arctic. Mr. McMillan was in daily contact with the Eskimos. He finds them lovable and easily managed. The members of the expedition trusted, implicitly the little colony of six families at Eta, base of the expedition, on the northeast shore of Greenland, and never suffered a loss by theft. Yet the same understanding of the Eskimo character has made Mr. McMillan skeptical as to the power of missionary work to better their social standards. "I don't believe the missionaries will be able to change the social customs of the Eskimos very greatly. They are a happy, care-free, jovial people. They are continually laughing. If they see a man in serious thought for more than a few minutes at a time they think something is wrong with him. And, really, they have all the necessary virtues right now. They love each other, they care for each other's welfare, and they protect each other. If one is hungry all are hungry. They have a perfect socialism. "And they are absolutely honest. Our supplies at Eta lay on the ground in plain view of every one in the settlement for four years, and no one ever touched them without permission. In New York after dark they wouldn't remain four minutes before being stolen. "Piblocko'to" is the word that expresses what the Eskimos think of the world at war, Mr. MacMillan said. It means "run amuck; gone clean crazy." The Eskimos believe that all the white man nations have gone "piblocko'to." "I tried to explain," Mr. MacMillan said, "that the war started because but they wouldn't believe it; they only shook their heads and said: 'No; that's impossible. There is plenty of land for everybody.' When we were getting ready to leave Eta they begged us to remain with them. 'Why go back there?'—meaning civilization—the asked us, 'where everyone is piblocko'to? Stay here with us and be happy.' THE APPEAL believes that the missionaries who are trying to "convert" the Eskimos are to "piblocko" especially those from the United States, who are trying to impose the American brand of jimcrow Christianity on them. If they have all of the necessary virtues right now, why waste time and money teaching them the murderous Christianity of America? INCREASED PENSIONS PROPOSED INCREASED PENSIONS PROPOSED Substantial increases in existing rates of pension for disablement of the limbs from injuries received in line of duty, are contained in a bill introduced by Representative George P. Darrow of Pennsylvania, which will come up for action by the House at the next session of congress. Mr. Darrow's proposed rates run from $65 for the loss of total disability of one hand or one foot, to $150 for the loss or total disability of both arms and both legs. They amount roughly to an increase of about 50 per cent in the existing rates for similar cases. The bill is made to apply to persons already on the pension rolls, and to all who may be granted a pension hereafter, but Mr. Darrow specifically provides that the measure shall not operate to reduce any pension hereto --- who in the consci- f his duty dares to world, with ignorant, nt, may condemn, of relatives may be arts of friends grow of duty done shall the applause of the nces of relatives or fore granted. The passage of this measure will be heartily approved of by the people. CAN'T BEAT NELSON The President's counsel to Minnesota Democrats to join with the Republican in re-electing Senator Knute Nelson is a virtue born of necessity. The Senator had expressed a desire to retire to private life. No Democrat stands a ghost of a show to succeed him. If he runs again and is elected by both parties, the Democrats have lost nothing. A real display of non-partisanship by Democrats would be to abstain from contests in States which are normally Republican, but where there now happen to be Democratic Senators by reason of the divided Republican strength in 1912 which enabled Democrats to slip into office. When Mr. Wilson counsels the Democrats of his own State of New Jersey to make no contest for Senator next time, he will have given convincing evidence of his real desire for non-partisanship in the elections during the war. HIGHER PENSIONS Representative Charles E. Fuller of Illinois has prepared a bill that will bring happiness to all surviving veterans of the Civil War. It provides that every person who served ninety days or more in the military or naval service shall receive a pension of $50 per month if receiving less than that sum at the present time. Another measure introduced by Mr. Fuller proposes to increase the pension of Army nurses to $25 per month. Both bills have been referred to the Committee on Invalid Pensions, of which Mr. Fuller is a leading member, and he intends to use his best efforts to get them favorably reported at as early a date as possible. February, although the shortest month in the year, has included in it some notable events, namely, the birthdays of Abraham Lincoln, Frederick Douglass and George Washington, the anniversaries of which will be more or less celebrated in different parts of the country. Then this is the month in which the darned ground hog determines whether or not we are to have six weeks more of the miserable weather that the weather man has been furnishing lately. Tomorrow is Sun-day but we hope that despicable little varmint will not leave his hole until a friendly cloud obstructs old Sol's rays and prevents him from seeing his shadow. The A. M. E. Ministers of Washington, D. C., have sent the President a petition asking clemency for the five other colored soldiers of the 24th Infantry, recently sentenced to death for participation in the Houston, Texas mutiny. In their petition the ministers say that there are extenuating circumstances which they believe should merit executive clemency. We hope the President will see it that way. That, necessity is the mother of invention, is being demonstrated daily during the war. The people are doing things they did not even dream of doing four years ago and doing without many things they deemed actually necessary to their existence. They are learning conservation, thrift and Hooverizing and when the war shall have ended, a consummation to be devoutly wished for, they will know more than ever before how to make both ends meet. This war has been, is, and will be, a great educator. In Middletown, Conn., a Congregational, a Baptist, and a Methodist church have voted to unite and worship for three months to save coal. The example set by these churches could be followed by the churches in many large cities. LYNCHINGS IN 1917. (From the Chicago Tribune.)

Washington, Jan. 21.—The movement to have the War department establish a hospital in France for race soldiers is now being kindly by many of the Race through the country. They regard such a Jim Crow hospital as something that may introduce the color line in France, a country that has never dawn the color line. In the hospitals of France the black soldiers from Africa and from India are treated without discrimination. It has been suggested that the armed men and women throughout the country enacted on protests to the War Department made the establishing of a Jim Crow hospital in free France for our brave boys who will be fighting there. It is pointed out by the Treasury Department that Thrift Stamps are not made redeemable in cash for the reason that these stamps are simply intended as a convenient method for the small savers to accumulate enough to purchase War Savings Stamps which bear interest and are redeemable in cash. It is then to provide for redemption for these Thrift Stamps would involve such an amount of detailed accounting and labor and expense as to impair the practicability of their use. In fact, they would be more trouble and expense to the Government possibly than they are worth. Of Board of Directors of Crispus Attucks Home.

Hoover selling suggestions and Hoover conservation ideas are embodied in the new St. Paul Market house, Eighth and Robert streets, which is now open to the St. Paul public. It marks the advent of the market system, so long successful in New England, and has behind it the many years' experience and business policies of H. W. McQuaid, head of the McQuaid Market House at Eighth and Cedar streets. It is something distinctly new in the west, and is the largest and best equipped market house in the country, except one, McQuaid declares.

Lealtad, rector of St. Philip's Church, is rapidly on the mend after a serious illness. It may be possible for him to attend services Sunday, but not in the capacity of preacher. Mr. Ira S. Ashe, secretary of the church, is acting as lay reader during Rev. Lealtad's illness and serves in like manner at St. Thomas Church, Minneapolis. Many of the leading members of St. Philip's have been absent from service during the Rector's illness, and to some it seems a case of not being able or willing to "watch while the shepherd prays." The Sunday school is said to be continuing faithfully during the Rector's absence. Deposits made on or before February 5th will draw five months' interest at 4 per cent per annum July 1st Sums of one dollar and upward received.

GRAND MASQUE BALL. And Lady Minstrels on St. Valentine's Night. Active preparations have been inaugurated for a grand Masque Ball and Lady Minstrels on St. Valentine's night, Thursday, Feb. 14, for the benefit of Queen of Sheba Chapter No. 70, O. E. S. This big fun producer will be given at Union Hall, of course, and 35 cents will admit you to the whole show. He are a few pointers in reference to it: Mrs. Frank Boyd, the general chairman, says there shall be nothing left undone that will give pleasure to the people. Mesdames Mason and Hicks' Lady Minstrels are perfect this year and are chuck full of new jokes for all. Mesdames Ida Broyles and Mary More will have charge of the punch and say it will have the same delicious flavor. Mr. O. C. Hall, the floor manager, says he will see to it that every one has a proper chance to dance and enjoy the occasion. The three grand prizes this time will be well worth the trial of any contestants to win them. There will be twenty-six beautiful ladies in attendance to see that every one has a good time. You can't afford to miss this first grand fun ball of the season. If you meet Mr. J. E. Glass with his pockets bulged out, it won't be money, but advertising matter for the grand ball. Just watch your step, this is to be some ball! U'LL HAVE A GOOD TIME CLUB. This Famous Fun Furnisher is preparing for a Three-Night's Festival in Costumes of Komikal Kacter or otherwise at Union Hall, February 20-21-22. Among the features will be prizes given each night; yoting for the most popular lady at one cent per vote; a chance to spend your small change on the "sure thing" games of chance and last but not least an opportunity to let your feet enjoy the good music. Fifteen cents is all you need to furnish this item; you can get in for that amount and it's up to you how much it gets out of you or you get out of it. The club needs the money to make the next payment on the hall, so go yourself and take your friends or encourage them to go. Committee—GEO. L. Hoage, president; J. B. Johnson, vice president; E. J.

It is a patriotic duty, therefore, at this time, to keep the home and the home life up to the highest point of efficiency. No home can do its best without a piano. You need it for the education of the children. You need it for the family life, to keep up good cheer, to make home really home. You need it that you may sing the nation's songs, thereby to keep burning the fires of patriotism. Can you imagine a patriotic people without the inspiration of patriotic music?
