Dollars that Fight
By SENATOR HENRY CABOT LODGE
The war will be won by men and ships, by guns and airplanes. To raise armies and supply them, to build the navy and support it, and to furnish ships and transport, we must have money in large amounts. The expenditures of the Government for the ensuing year are estimated at $24,000,000,000, a sum which baffles the imagination to conceive. That vast amount
The war will be won by men and ships, by guns and airplanes. To raise armies and supply them, to build the navy and support it, and to furnish ships and transport, we must have money in large amounts. The expenditures of the Government for the ensuing year are estimated at $24,000,000,000, a sum which baffles the imagination to conceive. That vast amount must come one-third from taxes and two-thirds from loans. The success of the Fourth Loan, like those that preceded it is, therefore, absolutely necessary. We must work with the highest speed, as if the war was to end in six months. We must prepare in every direction, as if it was to last for years. Speed and preparation are both expensive.

Without the Loans We Cannot Have Either
We are fighting to secure a just, righteous and lasting peace. For a complete peace we must have a complete victory. It must not be a peace of bargain or negotiation. No peace which satisfies Germany can ever satisfy us. No peace that leaves Germany in a position to renew the war against us will be worth having. It will be far from sufficient to gain all our objects on the Western front—Belgium, Alsace-Lorraine, Italia Irredenta. The President with wisdom and foresight and great force expressed his determination to redeem Russia. Russia

The President with wisdom and foresight and great force expressed his determination to redeem Russia. Russia must not be left in Germany's hands. That would mean another war. Poland must be free. Slav republics must be established to bar the way between Germany and the East, Serbia and Roumania must be redeemed. All these things are essential. Nothing will bring them but complete victory and a peace dictated by us and our allies. It is a conflict of ideas. It is the principle of evil arrayed against the principle of good. It is the battle of freedom and civilization against barbarism and tyranny. We must win and we shall win.

ONE RESULT ON EASTERN FRONT.
The foreign activities of the Committee on Public Information are beginning to bear fruit. A Russian newspaper has made its appearance in this country with a long and exceedingly laudatory article on the virtues of Secretary McAdoo and his wonderful genius as a railroad dictator. Evidently the paper had not been posted on the fact that the first six months' operation of the railroads showed a loss of about $300,000,000; that the discountess of the operators had become so gross as to call for an admonition from Mr. McAdoo, and that the service has been worse instead of better, despite a 25 per cent raise in freight rates and a 50 per cent increase in passenger rates. The Committee on Public Information will undoubtedly see that no
sia, just as the committee saw to it that the senatorial report on aircraft production contained in the newspapers was not permitted to get to France. It was the belief of the people of the United States, who have to pay for the running of George Creel's Committee on Public Information that the purpose of the committee abroad was to disseminate the propaganda of Americanism rather than act as publicity agent for ambitious administrators. Evidently the people were mistaken in that belief. Kings of the olden days had their minstrel choirs to chant their virtues to a wide-mouthed peasantry. Now that we are of the order of freemen, with ability to read and reason, the Choir of Creel is substituted. Let's use our reason.
CONVERT OTHER ISSUES LIBERTY

The privilege of conversion which arose in consequence of the issue of $4\frac{1}{4}\%$ bonds of the Third Liberty Loan will expire on November 9th and under existing law cannot be extended or renewed. Holders of these $4\%$ bonds lose nothing by exercising the privilege of conversion and gain $4\frac{1}{4}\%$ interest per annum. Holders of

4% bonds should not wait until the last moment to exercise the privilege of conversion but proceed to do so promptly. Delay will result in overburdening the banking institutions of the country and the Treasury Department by making it necessary to handle all conversions at the last moment, and may result in the loss of the privilege of conversion altogether. Holders of coupon bonds are strangly advised to request issue of registered bonds in order to protect themselves against the risk of loss, theft and destruction of their bonds.
GRASP THIS OPPORTUNITY:
The shortest road to a commission in the army is through the student army training corps in colleges and universities. Aside from this opportunity to secure a commission membership in this corps, practically guarantees a place in the army, whether as commissioned or non-commissioned officer, mechanic, or infantryman, in which a man can render his largest service to his country.
Men in Class 1 may enter provided they have not been selected for draft before induction into this corps, and those who have registered under the new draft may be accepted before they are actually classified in the draft.
Youths or older men should send in applications at once to the school of their choice and take course in agriculture, chemistry, commerce, engineering, journalism, law, letters, science, pharmacy, or any other course taught. This is a great opportunity. The student, by voluntary induction, becomes a soldier in the United States army, uniformed, subject to military discipline and with the pay of a private ($30 a month). They will simultaneously be placed on full active duty, and contracts will be made as soon as possible with the colleges for the housing, subsistence and instruction of the student soldiers.
Officers, uniforms, rifles and such other equipment as may be available will be furnished by the War Department, as previously announced.
The student-soldiers will be given military instruction under officers of the army and will be kept under observation and test to determine their qualifications as officer candidates, and technical such as engineers, chemists and doctors. After a certain period, the men will be selected according to their performance, and assigned to military duty.
Students enrolled in the S. A. T. C. will not only be serving their country in a manner suggested by the federal government, but they will be in a position to improve their condition for future war or peace work and will grow more and more efficient servants of the nation's cause with each month of college training.
As any man who desires to join a "Student Army Training Corps" may select the university or college he prefers we suggest that Minnesotaans have one of the best institutions in this country right at their door in the University of Minnesota, where already 3,200 applications for admission have been made and it is estimated that the enrollment will reach 4,000. Get in before it is too late.
Congressman Willis C. Hawley of Oregon has reduced to understandable language the provisions of the new revenue bill relating to taxes on income. He has illustrated his concise explanation of the bill by numerous typical examples, both as regards in-

SOUTHERN COLORED LEARNING
THRIFT.
At the meeting of American Bankers' Association at Chicago, R. S. Hecht, vice-president of the Hibernia Bank and Trust Co., New Orleans, said: "Never in their history have the colored people of the South been so prosperous. The average earnings of farm hands have been doubled, while the pay of colored men in other labor has increased still more. As a result, in the delta country of the Mississippi, from Memphis to the gulf, you will find thousands of colored men driving their own automobiles, and not Fords either, for a large part, but those of makes costing from $1,000 to $1,500. The Liberty loan has appealed to their emotionalism, and as a result I look to see the colored people more thrifty and a greater aid to the community."
FOR JUSTICE WITHIN
In a recent address at Washington Bishop Charles Gore of Oxford, England, said:
"It is necessary that we crush Germany, but it is also necessary that the allies convince the workers that they are fighting not only for the overthrow of their foes from without but are as well fighting for liberty and justice to all classes, creeds, and colors within. If with the overthrow of Germany this is not accomplished the war will only have been partially won. This is the thought I am trying to get into the minds of all the people with whom I come in contact.
"We must have it thoroughly understood that militarism is but a necessity of the moment and in no sense a permanent institution. Democracy under a military system is an impossibility."
OUR WAR INTENTIONS.
"We intend what our forefathers, the rounders of this Republic, intended. We in America believe our participation in this war to be the fruitage of what they planted. Our case differs from theirs only in this, that it is our inestimable privilege to concert with men out of every nation what shall make not only the liberties of America secure, but the liberties of every other people as well. . . . "There can be but one issue. The settlement must be final. There can be no compromise. No halfway decision would be tolerable. No halfway decision is conceivable.
"The blinded rulers of Prussia have roused forces they knew little of—forces which can never be crushed to earth again; for they have in their heart an inspiration and a purpose which are deathless and of the very stuff of triumph."—From the President's Mount Vernon Address.
BY THE MIDNIGHT OIL.
Have you read the speech of Senator Lawrence Y. Sherman, of Illinois, entitled "Unofficial and Personal Government," delivered in the United States Senate recently? If not, write for it without delay, be you man or woman. In it you will find mordant comment on our Government as at present conducted, and what lead up to it, which will put you on your toes ready for a sprint to the ballot box

to vote for a termination of such a condition of affairs. The language of the speech is forceful and imitative; fearless and illuminating. It deals chiefly with one Col. E. M. House, erstwhile a popgun colonel and politician in the State of Texas, now the ringmaster of the political circus in Washington, to whom the Democrats bow low, and lower still, when he cracks the whip. Quotations from a book ascribed to this man, given by Sherman, will indicate the program he has in mind to overthrow American institutions and make of United States industrialism a politically-owned monstrosity. The speech may be secured by writing Senator Sherman at Washington, D.C., for a copy. It will make you sit up in bed 'nights.

HOLD YOUR LIBERTY BONDS
Don't let your Liberty Bonds get away from you. Hold onto them, even if you may be tempted to dispose of them.
In the first place, the government intended them for YOU. The Liberty loans were designed as people's loans.
In order to finance the war the government must have the support of ALL the people. It was intended that you keep the bonds and not trade them or sell them.
Promiscuous selling tends to depreciate their value, and that is what the German agents here would like to do
Not only is it your patriotic duty to retain these bonds, but in doing so you are laying up something for a rainy day. The Liberty loans and the Was Stamp issues have done more to encourage thrift in America than anything ever before attempted. They have made bondholders out of thousands of people who never in their lives until now had made an investment. Crafty and unscrupulous individuals are using every means to entice these bonds out of the hands of their owners. One method is to offer in exchange for Liberty bonds stock certificates in fly-by-night companies, worth only the gold paper they are printed on, and represented as returning a much higher rate of interest than the government securities. Those who are not familiar with stock values should beware of such offers.
There are other methods, some savoring of the gold-brick variety; others just within the limits of the law.
Liberty bonds are the safest investment in the world. If you MUST dispose of them, you would do well to consult your banker.

ALABAMA STANDS PAT
The renomination of Congressman Huddleston, of Alabama, after the President had asked for his defeat need not be taken as an endorsement of what Huddleston stands for. It it more likely a rebuke to the President for trying to control an election. This is still a republican form of government, with three separate and distinct branches, the most important of which is the legislative. The people recognize this, and they will tolerate no executive dictation in election of Senators and Representatives. To establish the precedent of defeating a man because he meets the displeasure of the President would be to make subservient tools of a considerable number of members of Congress. This, of course, the people of the country do not want done. They want men, not rubber stamps, in Congress. Huddleston voted wrong a good many times, but it is no worse to be wrong than to be a mere non-entity, a puppet, an echo, a rubber stamp, a messenger, or any other kind of a lackey for somebody else.
WAR WELFARE WORK
The decision of the President of the United States that there shall be one giant campaign for the support of the various American Army Welfare organizations has joined the Y. M. C. A., Y. W. C. A., American Library Association, Salvation Army. War Camp Community Service, Jewish Relief Board and the National Catholic War Council in a drive for $170,500,000 with which to support war welfare work both at home and abroad. This is not a philanthropic campaign; it is a war campaign. Just as the Liberty Loan campaign will furnish uniforms and ammunition and guns, so this will furnish that other essential for winning the war—morale.
Minnesota will be asked to raise $3,900,000. Of this $100,000 will go to the Y. M. C. A., $30,000 to the National War Council, $15,000 to the Y. W. C. A., $15,000 to the War Camp Community Service, $3,500 to the American Library Association, $3,500 to the Jewish Welfare Board and $3,500 to the Salvation Army.
SOME OF THE BITS YOUR LI
BERTY BOND WILL DO.
If you buy a $100 bond of the Fourth Liberty Loan you are lending the United States Government enough money to feed a soldier in France a little more than seven months. Or you have furnished enough money to give him a complete outfit of winter and summer clothing, including shoes and stockings, and slicker and overcoat and blankets, with enough left over to arm him with a good revolver. You have done that much to beat back the Hun.
It takes $35 more to arm him
with a rifle with a bayonet on it, and if you buy a second $100 bond you furnish him this rifle and 1,000 cartridges for it; and there will still be enough of your money left to purchase a good-sized bomb to throw in a dugout, or demolish a machine gun together with the Huns operating it.
THE CENSUS GRAB.
While the Census bill was under discussion in the House, Representative John G. Cooper of Ohio, sought the adoption of an amendment that would have taken from the Democrats some, at least, of the enormous amount of patronage they will exercise when that measure is put into effect. As it now reads all census supervisors are to be appointed by the Secretary of Commerce upon recommendation of the Director of the Census. Of course that means that practically all will be Democrats. Mr. Cooper would have given the Congressmen a voice in making recommendations for appointments in their own districts. Had his views prevailed Republican districts would have stood a chance of having their inhabitants recorded by Republican supervisors. But Mr. Cooper's amendment met with disfavor from the party in control and was defeated.
CAN'T BE TRUSTED
"American wearing apparel is gaining steadily in Argentina as the result of the failing European supplies," declares the Bureau of Foreign and Domestic Commerce. "This is especially true of hosiery, which before the war came almost entirely from Germany." How freely they now confess the real reason for our great expansion in sales to Latin America, and how utterly they denied it a few weeks before the 1916 election. Those were the days when the Democratic National Committee said our war export trade was due to Democratic policies, and that the sale of war goods accounted for but 5 per cent of the total. A party that lied like that in 1916 is pretty apt to lie again in the Congressional campaign of 1918.
ONLY HALF ADJOURNED
The Lewisburg (Pa.) Saturday News very pertinently remarks that the announcement that "politics is adjourned" has not been accompanied by the appointment of a Republican to a place in the cabinet, nor the appointment of Republicans to fill any of the offices of customs collector, etc. No, and the administration has not made full use of the abilities of such men as Roosevelt and Wood. Nor has it acknowledged its obligations to the late Augustus P. Gardner, one of the pioneers of preparedness. Perhaps politics is only half adjourned.
BONDS OF THE FOURTH LIBERTY LOAN.
Bonds of the Fourth Liberty Loan are now being turned out by the thousands daily by the Treasury's Bureau of Engraving and Printing. The bonds are similar in form and design to those of the third loan, and space has been left on each bond for insertion of the exact terms of the bonds.
It is believed that a sufficient number of the bonds will be ready to make possible immediate delivery of all bonds of the fourth loan as they are purchased.

A movement for woman's suffrage is being taken up in Jamaica and is meeting with encouragement throughout the island. Out of a total population of about 900,000, more than 880,000 are colored, there being fewer than 20,000 white people on the island.

Christian Scientists have opened welfare houses in London and Washington and it is very likely that they will be the only places where colored soldiers will be welcomed. In many of the other so-called welfare houses colored soldiers are forbidden to enter.

Whitch is Self Explanation.
Managing Editor,
The Chicago Tribune,
Chicago, Illinois.
Dear Sir:
The enclosed was probably printed without your knowledge or consent.
It is, however, an insult to more than 200,000 colored soldiers now in the United States Army, of whom 100,000 are already in France fighting for freedom and democracy.
It is also an insult to the 12,000,-000 Americans in the United States who are classed as "colored" who are 100 per cent loyal. a fact the Tribune admitted in an editorial some time since. While the "colored troops are fighting nobly" at the front—many have died in the trenches for their native land—some have won the "Croix de Guerre"—do not permit the use of terms which are offensive to those they have left behind, who are buying Liberty Bonds, War Savings Stamps and Thrift Stamps; contributing to the
"HUMAN NATURE'S FOULEST BLOT."
My soul is sick with every day's report
Of wrong and outrage, with which earth is filled.
There is no flesh in man's obdurate heart.
It does not feel for man: the natural bond
Of brotherhood is severed as the flax
That falls asunder at the touch of fire.
He finds his fellow guilty of a skin
Not colored like his own: and having power
To enforce the wrong, for such a worthy cause
Dooms and devotes him as his lawful prey.
* * * * * *
Thus man devotes his brother, and destroys:
'Tis human nature's broadest foulest blot.

THE SIN OF SILENCE
To sin by silence when we should protect makes cowards out of men. 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 guilletines decide our least disputes. The few who dare must speak and speak again to right the wrangs of many.—Ella Wheeler Wilcox.
Red Cross, Y, M. C. A. Knights of Columbus, Salvation Army and other war funds, in spite of the fact that some of these organizations either segregate them or refuse admission. They are also conserving food and fuel and willingly making as many sacrifices as any other group of Americans, and they are genuine Americans without the hyphen, the Census of 1910 showing that ONLY 496 COLORED AMERICANS WERE BORN IN AFRICA! To be consistent the Tribune should use "Sheeny" for Jewish soldiers, "Dago" for Italian soldiers, "Mick" for Irish soldiers, "Frogater" for French soldiers and "Chink" for Chinese soldiers, and other nicknames for the various nationalities which make up the United States Army. Even German Americans, many of whom are in the army, do not have such offensive epithets applied to them unless they are discharged for disloyalty.
Cut out the word "darky" and all other words which offend loyal Americans, for the period of the war. Kindly send the order down the line that "darky" and other offensive words will not be permitted in the columns of the Tribune. This would be an act of simple justice for Americans who are doing their full duty to their country.
When the victorious American Army marches down "Unter den Linden" in Berlin in triumph, colored Americans will be in the ranks and after that "darky" and all such terms will be obsolete.

To the above letter the following reply has been received:
THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE
The World's Greatest Newspaper
Chicago, Sept. 1st, 1918.
"Mr. J. Q. Adams"
I have your letter of Aug. 29th calling attention to the use of the word "Darky" in a head over an item from Camp Grant.
I wish to assure you that there was not the slightest intention on the part of anyone who had to do with this item, of reflecting on the colored people in identifying the soldier as a colored man. Everyone, I think, appreciates the loyal spirit and heroic work of the soldiers of the colored race in this war and no one could wish to detract from the just recognition that is theirs.
NO COMMISSIONS FOR COLORED PHYSICIANS.
(From the Journal of the American Medical Association, Chicago, September 7.) The new draft regulations seriously effect the Washington, (D. C.) colored doctors, of whom there is relatively a large number. For a number of months past no commissions as medical officers have been granted to physicians of that race on the ground that the proportion of medical officers for colored troops has already been enrolled. A com-mission recently sought relief from the Secretary of the Interior in this situation, but was informed that they are at present no prospects for more medical officers. This leaves many colored physicians who have vainly volunteered to serve as medical officers face to face with the prospect of being inducted into the service as privates under the new law.
WILL H. HAYS.
Chairman of the Republican National Committee Makes a Patriotic Clarion Call.
To Republican State Chairmen, District Chairmen, County Chairmen, and All Republican Workers:
The mission of America is about to be accomplished. American soldiers in France are at this moment demonstrating to the world the reason for America and the stuff of which this Republic is made. Their complete success and the consequent eternal establishment every
where in the world of the integrity of American rights, interests and honor and the right of men to govern themselves, are all assured with the proper performance of the plainest duty of the citizenry at home.
The Fourth Liberty Loan is our next objective.
There is no geography, political or physical, in the patriotism of this country. Democrats and Republicans alike love their flag and are ready to die for it. We continually insist for all parties that the war be kept out of partisan politics and that partisanship be kept out of the war.
Just as in Congress the Republicans led the fight that made possible the passage of the great war measures, so now the Party membership and order are immediate, definite war task in the accomplishment of which it can fully function. I repeat, let there be no contest in this country as to anything that touches the war except that contest—who best can serve, who most can give.
The Success of the Fourth Liberty Loan shall be the Republican party's supreme motif of thought and action until that objective is attained.
Wherever Republicans are together, by two or two thousand, it shall be a win-the-war meeting. Just as the Republican party's every action at all times has been and shall be determined solely by how we can contribute most to the war's success, so now our every thought and action shall be determined entirely by how we can make certain the quick over-subscription of the Fourth Liberty Loan.
This is a united country's next message to Germany.
The entire Republican organization in every voting precinct in this country shall be a fighting force in this Liberty Loan drive.
This is the Republican organization's business.
This is the real business of every man, woman and child in America.

WALLER AGAINST "NEGRO."
Noted Brooklyn Doctor Says It Causes Mental and Physical Segregation. (From Amsterdam News.)
Editor Amsterdam News:
Sir: I cannot too heartily congratulate you on a recent, editorial discouraging the use of the word "Negro." There is no greater delight enjoyed by the white people of the United States today than the spreading use of this unfortunate term. Why? They realize that it is the most potential factor at work at the present to about both a physical and mental segregation of the people of color. Its use is on the increase only because our speakers and writers, especially Do Bols and Washington feel that its repetition, and nausea, is necessary to retain the good will of the masses. The term "Negro" is not only absurdly inaccurate as applied to millions of colored people, but it is also alarmingly injurious, for the following reasons: a. It has never stood historically or in the present, anywhere in the world, for any noble or uplifting. Most high-grade Africans repudiate it.
b. In Africa and out of Africa it was never applied to the higher types, but to Guinea, Sudanese and Senegambians only.
c. Its derivatives, "Negroism," "Negry," and its compounds, Negrohead, Negroly, Negro-monkey, are all clearly in their associations, degrading.
d. Its feminine form, "Negrass," is justly and correctly used to define your wife and daughter and sweetheart, if you favor the use of the masculine term.
e. It has been the word used by the Southern whites for two centuries, when formally speaking or writing about an unworthy or criminal man or woman of the race. For when he speaks of the worthy he invariably asks.
f. It is not differentiated in the mind and thought of the whites from their favorite and generally used (among themselves) terms, "Negro" and "Nigerer."
g. As stated by an eminent Japanese diplomat it has an unquestioned influence in cutting us off from the thought, sympathy and co-operation to the millions of colored Africans, Asiatics and Islanders of the Yonder world. Very truly yours, OWEN M. WALLER M.D.

SERVICE FLAG DEDICATED.
With Ceremonies of Patriotic Songs and Eloquent Speeches By the Friend and Well-wishers of the Union Hall Association.
Last Monday evening will long be remembered in the hearts of the many friends of the Union Hall Association who were present to participate in and observe ceremonies of the dedication of a service flag containing a star for each one of the men of St. Paul who are "hunting Huns for Uncle Sam."
The program was very interesting and entertaining and was enjoyed by a very large audience. Mr. George L. Hoage was master of ceremonies. Major Jose H. Sherwood spoke on conditions at Camp Dodge. Rev. W. D. Carter of Seattle, Wash., dedicated the service flag assisted by six supervisors of the Rachel E. Harris Red Cross Unit of St. Paul, who acted as flagbearers, and while the flag was flagged the award ceremony, Mr. Miller, "God will take care of you," Mr. W. T. Francis spoke on the heroism and bravery of the colored soldiers. Mrs. Florence Johnson spoke in the interest of the Rachel E. Harris Red Cross Unit and gave a record and report of the unit. The Treble Cef Club rendered folk songs directed by Mrs. S. E. Hall. Mrs. Eleanor Smith and Mr. C. H. Miller gave a demonstration of Wilbur Crossby's "Draftin' Blues." Service flag song by Mrs. Harriet Oliver. Declaration "The Flag" by Miss Alice Bean. Soil, "Everybody root for Uncle Sam," sung by Mrs. S. E. Hall and Chorus, the accompanists were Mrs. B. C. Archer and Mrs. Sadie Johnson. The principal speaks of the evening as Morgan Greene and Sq. Boston, Iow., whose interesting and eloquent speech brought forth from the audience many laughs and much applause. Following the program the floor was cleared and Murray's orchestra furnished the music for dancing which concluded the evening.
THE WESTERN FRONT AT HOME
Earn and give. For a year the young people of America have been coached in thrift. Instead of the old problem in the arithmetic book, "If Mary's mother gave her three apples, Jane gave her two, and she ate one, how many would she have?" the third grade girl is now sent to the blackboard to solve, "How many Thrift stamps at 25 cents apiece will Mary own at the end of 12 months if she saves 10 cents a week?" The girl in the grade above her is learning in her arithmetic lesson how many Thrift stamps it takes to buy the yarn for 500 helmets for the soldiers in France. Still farther on the eighth grader is told to figure in terms of War Savings stamps how much it costs to supply a regiment of Uncle Sam's men with shelter tents. And now the Earn and Give club of the younger girls of the Young Women's Christian association is organized to turn those Thrift lessons into giving. The children of America have been turning in pennies and nickels and pasting a green stamp on their Thrift card. The Earn and Give club can now use some of those cards and War Savings stamps in their campaign among the younger people for the united war fund.
This fall when the war council of the Y. W. C. A. made plans for the 1918 war drive, it included in its program the rule that no young girls under eighteen can do any soliciting, on the streets or otherwise. They can give, but they can only give by earning. Consequently in order to co-ordinate the efforts of the girls in all the districts over the country, the Earn and Give club is enrolling members and has given out an estimate of $5 apiece to be earned for the war fund campaign by the American girls who still count their age in 'teens. Five dollars apiece from the younger girls of the country will mean that the nation as a whole will fill its charitable organizations' war chest.
Some high school girl in New York city is going to earn her $5 by shining her own shoes instead of stopping at the Greek stand on her way to school and by making her own sandwiches for her noon lunch. Out in Iowa the girl who has been spending 15 cents plus war tax for a movie three nights a week is going to draw a line through the movie habit except when there is an especially good bill. More than one girl plans to clean all her glove this winter and to salvage all the paper and collections of junk about the house which should be sold to the junk man to be worked over into some productive industry. The girls in their 'teens are going to earn instead of ask others for the money. They are to sacrifice and give in their own names and older women will make the public requests for money elsewhere.
Many of the girls who are waiting to join the Earn and Give club are already Patriotic leagues, and they have learned several practical lessons in the thrift that will make them effective members of the new club by their conservation of fruits and vegetables. They have canned and pickled. Now when the end of summer brings the beginning of school they will change their thrift into winter thrift and begin saving their $5 for the Y. W. C. A. war fund.
"Wherever You Are Is the Western Front" is the slogan which the Earn and Give club has adopted. Anna, one wry thirteen-year-old daughter of New York's East side, who was one of the first and youngest members to join the campaign at a New York settlement house, had to have it explained to her that instead of western front meaning fight and fight meaning fists, the western front meafs work and work means save in order to give.
The girl who joins the Earn and Give club will discover that in conjunction with her working and saving in order that her club will furnish its quota of the money that is going to help the girls like herself in France and Belgium, she will also find numerous ways in the community to help the war that she had never dreamed of. She will see that all the fruit pits and stones that can be saved from her own dining table and from those of her neighbors, are dropped into the little red barrel at the corner, in order that the carbon which the seeds contain can be used in making charcoal for the American soldiers' gas masks. She will save all the tin foil that she sees for the Red Cross. She will help collect clothing for the French and Belgium orphans and perhaps send them some of her own.
School girls in India, children from squall, dingy homes, with absolutely no spending money, gave last year to Belgian and Armenian relief when they themselves were not getting enough to eat. They gave up their meat once a week for the Belgians, though they only had it twice a week themselves, and for the Armenians they set aside the handful of fresh grain that otherwise each girl would have ground in her own little stone mill. Both contributions, from all the girls in one missionary's school, amounted only to $5 a month. "But it was a tremendous sacrifice," their teacher writes, "although a joyous one. It actually meant less bread each day, and once a week a meal of dry bread and water. This was done by 80 girls from the meanest homes in the world—children between the ages of five and fifteen."
Four hundred thousand girls in 47 states have become Patriotic Troglovers since America declared war. If as many school girls and working girls from all classes pledge to earn and give, the united war fund campagners will have $2,000,000 of their $170,500,000.
OUR COLORED FIGHTERS.
After a series of disappointments and delays the United States Government picture film entitled "Our Colored Fighters" was shown at the Messiah Church Guild Hall on last Tuesday evening. The picture was very interesting and much enjoyed by the large crowd present. It showed the introduction of the colored draftees into the army and the development of them into the world's greatest fighting men. The film was shown under
the management of the St. Philip's Sunday School Club and the ladies are to be commended for giving our people an opportunity to see the film. During the evening Attorney W. T. Francis made a strong speech urging the purchase of Liberty Bonds. It is hoped that the Committee on Public information will see fit to produce more films showing the various activities of our colored citizens and soldiers now engaged in war work.

THE FOURTH LIBERTY LOAN.
The campaign for the Fourth Liberty Loan will begin September 28 and close October 19. The result of the loan will be watched with keen interest in Europe, not only by our associates in the war against the Teutonic powers but by our enemies. It will be regarded by them as a measure of the American people's support of the war.
The Germans know full well the tremendous weight and significance of popular support of the war, of the people at home backing up the Army in the field. As the loan succeeds in their work somehow, as it falls short they will rejoice. Every dollar subscribed will help and encourage the American soldiers and hurt and depress the enemies of America.
The loan will be a test of the loyalty and willingness of the people of the United States to make sacrifices compared with the willingness of our soldiers to do their part. There must be and will be no failure by the people to measure up to the courage and devotion of our men in Europe. Many of them have given up their lives shall we at home withhold our money Shall we spare our dollars while the spare not their very lives?

IN CROSSING THE BUSY STREET
If pedestrians would follow a simple rule they could always avoid being struck by vehicles, Magistrate House declared in the traffic court recently. In issuing his seventeenth safety bulletin he said:
"Pedestrians should bear in mind that when they start to cross a street, no matter from which side, the traffic always approaches them from the left.
"When they reach the middle of the street it approaches them from the right.
"Before stepping from the sidewalk always look to the left.
"When reaching the middle of the street always look to the right."—New York Mall.
