20,000 SAVINGS SOCIETIES' GOAL
War Loan Organization Predicts That Many for Ninth Federal Reserve District.
WAR JOB NOT FINISHED
America's Great Power of Production Whipped German Spirit and Now Bill Must Be Paid-Cheap
War Savings societies are being organized in all parts of the Ninth Federal Reserve District as the first important step in the national Thrift campaign for 1919.
A. R. Rogers, Chairman of the District War Loan Organization, predicts that by the closing of Savings Society Week, February 24, there will have been organized at least 20,000 active societies for the encouragement of thrift and the sale of government securities.
We will for a statement of the aims and plans of the 1919 campaign, A. R. Rogers, Chairman of the War Loan Organization, dictated the following:
"The fighting is over but our war job isn't finished. The world has progressed thus far toward permanent peace because America stepped in and with her millions of men and billions of money made it impossible for Autocracy to win. By our marvelous production of war materials and our ability to use them, we convinced Germany that a continuance of the fighting meant national suicide.
"What if our American-made cannon, motor trucks, tanks, rolling kitchens, airplanes, poisonous gases and ammunition did not reach Europe? They were in readiness and would have gone into the lines in the spring. Germany knew this. She was whipped in power display the tremendous show of power display America.
"Our production of these things ended the fighting. They saved money and hundreds of thousands of precious lives. Now they have to be paid for and they are cheap at any price. Our Government must pay for them and we must temporarily loan

our money to our Government for that purpose. Will we do it gladly and in the spirit of thankfulness? I believe we will.
Changed Conditions.
"The condition of the world in which we live and of our country have been wonderfully changed by this war. Formerly, we wanted to finance a great development project in America we went to Europe for the funds. At the beginning of the war Europe owned six billion dollars worth of our securities. Today these have been paid up and we hold practically eight billion dollars worth of Europe's 'promises to pay.' Think of what that means! It means that when we need money for our Governmental projects or industrial development we cannot go to France or England for it. We must get it in America. In order that these necessary sums of money may be available, we of America must create a new infrastructure that must save—not a few individuals but the great mass of our people must save and thus amass the dollars that will make possible our development and prosperity.
The Government's Program.
"With these facts in mind, the Government has decided to carry on a widespread and intensive educational campaign of Thrift and Americanization.
"The War Savings Campaign of 1919 is the first step in this program. The Treasury expects to realize this year from the sale of War Savings Stamps a sufficient sum to materially assist in financing the war budget before the end of the year.
"The Government hopes through the 1919 campaign to establish Thrift as a permanent habit of the American people for the security and durability strength of the nation.
"Regular saving is the sound test of thrift and a sure foundation for investment. The backbone of the campaign is the War Savings society.
"In this great ninth Federal Reserve District we hope to do our full share. Our people have never failed to respond to the call of duty, and
that call is as urgent now as it was in 1917 or 1918. Because an individual has done his duty conspicuously up until now does not excuse him from further efforts. There can be slackers in peace times as well as in war times, and our organization will work to see that all of the people of these Newfoundlanders pay their duty and do it. Incidentally, while we are performing our duty to the nation and upholding the honor of our district, state and community, we will be doing a favor to ourselves by learning habits of thrift and the value of service.
“There will be a Fifth or Victory Loan, a movement in which we will thankfulness for the safety of our country and the saving of the lives of hundreds of thousands of those dear to us.
Organize Societies.
"Just now we are most vitally interested in properly starting the 1919 campaign for Thrift. In order that this shall be a complete success, we are convinced that it is necessary to organize War Savings societies. They are the means to a great end. We should organize 35,000 of these societies in the Ninth Federal Reserve District and the co-operation of all the people this will be an easy task. It will burden no one and it will benefit all of us."

NOT TIME NOW TO LAY YOUR PATRIOTISM ASIDE
We are spending at the rate of two billion dollars a month, and it is not the time for people to lay their patriotism aside. To the contrary, it is a time when people must exhibit a higher type than ever before. It is not so very difficult to induce people to respond to an appeal when feeling the fever of fighting in our veins, but it is a little difficult when people think the war is at an end.
There are two million American
soldiers in Europe, and the obliqu
tion is just as much on the Gov
ernment today as when the guns
were firing to see that they are
maintained in comfort, to provide
for their return home, and to pro-
vide when they shall return for
industrial places in the social and in-
dustrial life of the country. It is
just as important, and upon more
important, to impress upon more
American people the necessity of
cultivating the habit of thrift and
saving.

"MUST BE NO SAGGING"
ROOSEVELT'S LAST PLEA
Applies in Most Direct Manner to Popular Support of Nation's Financing Projects.
That Theodore Roosevelt's last plea to America, "There must be no sagging back" has the most direct appli-
ment financial support of government financial projects, including sale of War Savings Stamps with the stat-
ment made today by A. R. Rogers,
chairman of the central committee,
War Loan organization for the Ninth Federal Reserve District.
"Roosevelt with his keen Americanism saw the possibility of a sag coming with the actual fighting at an end and was a most earnest worker to keep the hearts and thoughts of the people placed right during the period of rebuilding the same as in the war period," Mr. Rogers said.
"Every argument that applied to the habit of thrift during the war applies to it today. The personal benefit of saving is as great as ever, the profit from interest on the investment is still as good as it was. The security of any loan made to the government was unquestionable and today, with fighting at an end and even the possibility that Germany might triumph gone, it is perfect.
"When Roosevelt said 'there must be no sagging' he meant that the habits of right action developed by the war must be continued. If he had been asked he would have said that for the American earners to keep, for the furry benefit and the benefit of their families, a part of their earnings, was just as important as any of the big national policies. He would have said that to the earner and saver himself savings are immensely important.
"To stop saving and buying War Savings Stamps today would be as bad for the man at home as it would be for the soldier holding the Rhine to go on duty from now on without a rifle. Cashing the stamps now which a person has bought before, is simply a retreat, as if the army that fought its way to victory should run back to the Marne and beckon to the enemy to pour into France once more."
DO YOUR BIT WILLINGLY
By spending lavishly the United States ended the war, saved billions of dollars and hundreds of thousands of lives. Pay your share of the bills thankfully.

HAND GRENADES GONE,
THEY THREW STONES
Loss of Equipment Fails to Kill the Fighting Spirit of the Yanks.
The fighting spirit that made the American army irresistible is illustrated in the case of Private Michael J. Feeney of Company G, One Hundred and Fourteenth infantry regiment, Twenty-ninth division, who, with his "buddy," named Brady, put a German squad to fight by hurling stones at them. The incident is related in a letter received in New York from First Lieut. T. J. B. Lang, Feeney's commanding officer, who vouches for its authenticity. Lieutenant Lang volunteered from Jersey City, while Feeney's home is in Bayonne, N. J. The Twenty-ninth division was in heavy fighting in a wooded district in or near the St. Mihiel sector. "Feeney and his running mate, Brady, were occupying the same bunk hole in the woods," writes Lieutenant Lang. "There was just some tangled underbrush between them and the lines of Boches close in front. During the early morning some Boches who evidently had come up during the night got close enough to hurl their hand grenades into our lines. We were not in trenches. We had gone far, far beyond them. "One Hun hurled a grenade quite accurately and it landed on the edge of the hole which was the 'hunting lodge' of Feeney and Brady. Feeney saw the grenade coming and jumping himself, he hauled his comrade, Brady, after him into the next hole less than a foot and a half to the right. Of course he didn't have time to save his equipment.
"The grenade exploded with a terrible noise. It shattered the stock of Feeney's rifle, making it useless, but Feeney wasn't long in deciding that the 'Dootchmen' were a dirty lot and needed a beating. He had no gun and no grenades so, with a curse at the kaiser and his servants, he stood up in plain view of the enemy and threw rocks and stones at the Huns a few yards away.
"They evidently didn't feel safe facing Feeney and his mate, Brady, and, thinking they were due for a shower of grenades, beat a mighty hasty retreat for their own territory."
KANGAROO GETS MAD
Hite a Deer With His Tall In a
Flight.
"Ned Kelly, the old buck kangaroo, has been having a fight with the boss stag of the axis deer herd," said Sergt. McGee of the San Francisco park police, "and it is the first time I ever heard of two herbivorous animals so widely different in species finding common ground for a quarrel.
"As a matter of fact, it was the axis deer that started the trouble. He was trying to show off before the does and started butting at poor old Ned Kelly, who was peacefully loloping about with no thought of trouble. The first butt of the deer set Ned thinking, the second set him mad, the third—well, Ned Kelly just turned about and gave the axis deer one wallop under the stomach with his tail. You could hear the smack five blocks away, and it simply knocked the deer fat. It dropped as if it had been shot, while Ned Kelly just hopped away as happy as a bird."
ATTACKED BY COON
Ferocious Animal Fastened Teeth Upon Aged Man's Hand.
A. M. Kenzie, 74 years of age, of Mitchell, S. D., started out to look at his traps, and at a certain point in the bluff observed a freshly dug hole. Dropping on his knees he proceeded to investigate, whereupon a large coon ferociously attacked him, fastening his teeth in Mr. Kenzie's hand.
He fought the animal as best he could, and finally succeeded in getting his knife out of his pocket. Opening the blade with his teeth he made an effort to cut the coon's throat, but the beast had so badly lacerated his arm and hand that it was almost impossible for the old gentleman to him. Finally he succeeded in cutting the coon's windpipe, but not until the animal had torn the flesh from his hand and arm and completely shredded his coat sleeve up to the shoulder.
DEAD BROTHER'S PICTURE
Relatives See It on a Screen After War Department Notice.
To receive word that a brother had been killed in action in France and then see his picture alive and happy among a number of other troglossome doughbys on a film in a picture playhouse is the rare experience of Lyle Beck and his sister, Miss Velma Beck.
The two went to a theater in Mattoon, Ill. The memory of a telegram from the war department at Washington announcing the death of their brother was still fresh in their minds.
During the performance a war film picture of scenes in France was shown.
"Why there's William," Miss Velma suddenly exclaimed to Lyle.
Both distinctly recognised the picture. It was unusually clear, they

HOLLAND HOUSED 10,000 HUN SPIES
Placed There to Keep in Touch With Britain.
USE DUTCHMEN AS COURIERS
Carry Messages to Enemy Agents in England—Loose Passport System Made Things Easy at First—Some of the Spies Were Highly Educated Men, Others Were Mere Shadowers and Toutes—Dangerous Ban Broken.
There were 10,000 known German agents in Holland during the war. A Dutch police inspector explained to the New York Sun that to expel them would simply mean that their places would be taken by other and unknown agents.
They drifted into Holland on various pretexts. Some were highly educated men, capable of moving in the best society; others were mere shadowy individuals. The two officers sorts of positions. The one of the porter at the Hotel des Indies, the Waldorf-Astoria of The Hague, who proved to be a brother of the then German ambassador at Constantinople, is already known. But that is only one of hundreds of similar incidents.
The chief task of this army of men was of courses to keep in touch with Great Britain. In the early days of the war there was no more difficulty in this than if there was no war. British passports in those days were not worth the paper on which they were produced.
A young journalist who was in Holland but had no passport got one from the local Consul (a Dutchman of course) simply on the production of a letter from home. Later on it was rendered very difficult to get a British passport, but curiously enough the previous issues of useless paper were not withdrawn until the war had been in progress for three full years. It need hardly be said that the German secret made good use of the carelessness.
Lack of Ce-operation.
Again the spies benefited from the lack of co-operation between the different British departments. Thus in one large town the British community was unofficially warned against patronizing a certain music dealer, who was a known German agent. Yet that man was one of the few Dutch music dealers who had a license for the import of British music.
Dutchmen were largely used as couriers between the German agents in Holland and the spies in Britain. Loose women and night clubs were employed as a means of ensnaring young men for this purpose.
Another aspect of the activities of these human moles was that of gathering information in Holland. The organization behind them was marvelous. Enormous prices were paid to Dutch code wires and copies of these code wires passing between the legations and Downing street or the Quay d'Orsay. So rampant did this evil become that the Dutch authorities had to insist on each operator submitting to a search before going on duty and again afterward.
Photography was used to an extraordinary extent. Passengers boarding the boats for England were snapshotted and the photos all carefully filled. Photography was chiefly used to ensure possible victims. On one occasion a French attach, riding in the woods near Wassenaar, encountered a lady who had been thrown from her horse. With the gallantry of his race, he went to her assistance. A few days later he was confronted with photographs of himself kneeling beside the "injured" lady. He was told that the lady was not injured at all, and would tell her own story.
Dangerous Band Broken Up.
With the threat of exposure as a lever, great effort was made to turn him into a traitor. Fortunately, he acted promptly and with courage, and in consequence a dangerous band was broken up. This was by no means an isolated instance.
One characteristic of Teutonic methods was the adoption of great precautions to get the odium, in the event of discovery, thrown on Britain. On one occasion an "English" yacht, manned by a crew named "Near" was found stranded in forbiddable waters near the mouth of the Scheldt. The yacht was salsed and the crew arrested. On board was found a fairly complete plan of the Dutch mine field protecting the mouth of the Scheldt. The odium was thus thrown on Britain. Happily, a few days later the plot was discovered and the pseudo-Englishmen found to be Teutons from Hamburg.
Finally, an instance may be given of how the practice of spying has been ingrained in the German people. A Dutch family living at Harlem had a German boy of eleven staying with them in the summer of 1917. They found that the youngster was keeping a note of all that was said in the conversation about Germany. When asked the reason of this, the boy said that he had been instructed to do so by his school-teacher, so that anybody who spoke against the kaiser could be found out and punished. That from a boy of eleven.
Half of Town Had Flu.
More than 50 per cent of the 500 inhabitants of Mount Braddock, Pa., were stricken with the Spanish influenza and about 10 per cent died.
PLAY TRICKS ON HUNS BY HIDING TREASURE
Family in Lille Conceals Auto and Tires From Soldier Searchers.
It is now permissible to tell of the hiding places of French and Belgian inhabitants, where they saved personal property from requisition or confiscation by the Germans. This information was at first held up for fear the Germans in their retirement might tear down houses where they suspected concealment of property. In Lille one family had an alcove boarded up and wall paper plastered over the boards to match the paper of the rest of the chamber, which was the living room. In this alcove were hidden a complete automobile, excepting the frame, including two extra tires; also 800 bottles of wine, bronze and copper candlesticks and other ornaments. This family was in "hot water" several times when visited by German searching parties.
The method of the searchers was for noncommissioned officers to engage the woman of the house in conversation upon some alleged breach of regulations while German soldiers secretly made their way into the house and locked every floor. The officers with lamps would sound walls, ceiling and floors in an endeavor to find the suspected cache. They would trace exposed water pipes, gas pipes and electric wires. The family with the boarded up alcove was fortunate to escape all the wall tests.
A number of families, even with German officers and soldiers billeted in their homes, were able to clean out hiding places behind wainscoting where they stored a surprising amount of wine and other goods greatly desired by the enemy. Many a hole was dug in cellars and covered with big flat stones, and many persons had money and jewelry sewed up in hidden pockets in their clothing.
"They were not so clever as they thought they were, those Germans," smile the people of Lille, the largest French city that had been occupied by the Germans. Then with a wink they show you what escaped becoming loot.
"BLACK JACK" KISSES JEAN
French Boy Reminds American General of Home.
An old Atlanta newspaperman now in France writes describing a visit of General Pershing to the front just before the drive for and capture of Fismes.
"When the general came into the yard at Annet twenty-nine of us were playing tag with Jean, the 6-year-old 'mascot' of Base No. 48," he says. "Of course we all snapped to attention and saluted. And little Jean, clicking his heels in true military fashion, came to attention with an American salute, holding it like a small statue until the 'big chief' returned it. The instant the general finished his salute he walked over to Jean, lifted him up and gave him a regular aid campaigners bug with a mouth, and then he moved to the mouth, Jean though blushing furiously, chirped: 'Hello, General Pair-rshang!' And there came into the general's eyes a suspicious moisture indicating that he might be thinking of another 'kid' a little bit older, somewhere in America."
THIS CHURCH IS RICH
Refuses One Million for an Oll Well in Cemetery.
The Merriam Baptist church of Ranger, Tex., which already has acquired an income of $200,000 a year through oil wells sunk in its church yard, has refused $1,000,000 for the right to develop wells in the graveyard which adjoins the church, it became known here.
The graveyard now is surrounded by oil wells and numerous companies have made the congregation, which has only 29 members, fabulous offers for the burying ground.
The congregation has voted that none of its members shall profit personally by its good fortune, but that the church shall be devoted to the glory of God. The sum of $100,000 already has been distributed among Baptist institutions in this state.

SUBMARINE CHASER MAKES PORT WITH SAILS OF BED CLOTHING
Engines of No. 28 Break Down, Despite Applications of Salad Oil and Butter When Lubricating Oil Gives Out, and Craft Is in Distress for Thirty Days—Crew on Short Rations.
How the crew of a submarine chaser rigged up bed clothes as sails, their signals of distress falling to bring help after the vessel's engines were disabled and her navigating instruments washed overboard in midocean, and how they plotted the craft through the open sea for a month until they reached the Azores, is graphically described in the report of Alexis Pulenb, the sailing master in command, which has just been made public by the navy department.
The submarine chaser, which was called No. 28, was American built and one of a group turned over to the French government. Manned by French crews the vessels left the Bermudas on January 7, 1918, and soon struck heavy weather. The tugs and chasers found it hard to keep together. In a terrific storm on January 12 the tug convoy was scattered and No. 28 lost sight of her companions.
Heavy seas carried away her lifeboats, davits, boxes of coal and gasoline and ventilators. The engine room was flooded, but the crew managed to one engine and keep the vessel going. The crew had developed somewhat No. 28 started out in search of her convoy. She then developed engine trouble, and the shortage of lubricating oil became alarming.
Intervals from northwest to southwest.
"I sighted four steamers, of which three were very far away and made a course nearly parallel to mine, that they did not approach very near to me. They were out of sight very quickly and probably did not see me.
"On the 8th of February at half past nine in the morning, I saw the third steamer about four points to and crossing our course not far away. The weather was fine, the sea very beautiful. I at once hoisted signals of distress and got out the lifeboat, manned by two volunteers, and ordered it to get in the path of the steamer and speak to him, but when he arrived at a distance of about five miles and was bearing about two points forward of the port beam, the steamer changed course and put on all steam. I immediately salvo of seven guns at intervals of one minute, in accordance with the answer of distress signals, but he did not answer me and continued to run away. At 15 minutes past eleven he disappeared over the horizon, heading about southwest.
"The conduct of the crew was marvelous throughout the voyage. They retained at all times their habitual calm. They never complained of the smallness of the ration which it was
Although the crew worked frantically they could not locate the trouble and the engines finally went "dead." Submarine chaser No. 28 was therefore hitched, and although many signals of distress, sent up nobody seemed to see them.
Reported at the Azores.
Reported at the Azores.
When the group of chasers reached the French port No. 28 was reported missing and it was generally believed she had been lost. Then on February 18, men to the surprise of both the French and american navy departments, she was spotted at the Azores. The expedients to whiten the crew of the vessel resorted in their month at sea are best related in the sailing master's own report:
"The machinists set to work to fix the engines, and on Wednesday, January 16, at midnight, the central engine started up. I set course east. There was nothing in sight. At 3 a. m. we again broke down. At 3:30 a. m. I saw lights of two steamers to port on the horizon, headed east. I showed two red lights at the masthead and signaled to them with the blinker. They did not answer me and continued on their course to the east.
"The boat continued stopped and the machinists kept at the repair of the engines. I kept pumping the bulges where the water reached a height of about 20 inches. The boat made a lot of water from the springing of her beams.
"At ten minutes to 12 a. m. I saw the mast of a scout boat on the horizon to the northwest. Considering my boat to be in a critical condition by reason of the length of time it had been disabled and the near exhaustion of my lubricating oil, I fired a salvo of six shots and hoisted the signal of distress. I obtained no answer and could see nothing more of them a few minutes later. At noon the center engine started up; course eart. Nothing in it had been a new breakdown of the engine. The chief machinist, Fengou, reported to me that the lubricating oil was all gone. Thereupon I used soap suds and several greasy substances to replace the oil, but these gave bad results.
"I then gave all the salad oil and butter for the lubrication of the engines. These latter gave very good results, but were not sufficient. There was about five gallons. At 20 minutes to six p. m. the engine started up; course east, nothing in sight.
"At half-past eleven p. m. another and last breakdown of the engine and burning out of the dynamo. The chief machinist reported to me that he would not be able to make the engines run any more. The radio would not be possible for me to call for help. There was nothing left on board but several pints of salad oil which I used only for the lubrication of the auxiliary engine with which I pumped blages when the state of the sea was such that I could not use the handy-ball (hand pump).
"I found myself, therefore, in complete distress, drifting toward the southeast, at the mercy of the winds and sea, with no exact position. I estimated my position at this time as 38 degrees, 30 minutes north latitude, and 39 degrees west longitude (about 700 miles from the Azores).
Put Crew on Short Rations.
Put Crew on Shore Rations.
"I remained in this condition until the eleventh of February without getting help of any kind. I ordered a jung rig rig to be got up, pumping the bulges all the time, putting out and taking out the water well to it, sparing the drinking water as much as possible, rationing the crew to the lowest possible amount, in view of the probability of a long voyage; putting out and taking in the sails according to the condition of the weather and the direction of the wind, and endeavoring to make headway east by compass in an effort to reach the Azores. The winds were favorable, blowing generally from the westerly quadrants and changing at

intervals from northwest to southwest.
"I sighted four steamers, of which three were very far away and making a course nearly parallel to mine, so that they did not approach very near to me. They were out of sight very quickly and probably did not see me.
"On the 8th of February at half-past nine in the morning, I saw the third steamer about four points to port and crossing our course not far away. The weather was fine, the sea very beautiful. I at once hoisted signals of distress and got out the lifeboat, manned by two volunteers, and ordered it to get in the path of the steamer and speak to him, but when he arrived at a distance of about five miles and was bearing about two points forward of the port beam, the steamer changed course suddenly and put on all steam. I immediately fired a salvo of seven guns at intervals of one minute, in accordance with the rules of distress signals, but he did not answer and continued to run away.
At 15 minutes past eleven he disappeared over the horizon, heading about southwest.
"The conduct of the crew was marvelous throughout the voyage. They retained at all times their habitual calm. They never complained of the smallness of the ration which it was necessary for me to restrict them to, and thereby showed a grand spirit of sacrifice and self-denial.
Steered by Salla.
"On February 18, at half-past six a.m., I saw land one point on the port bow, bearing north 55 degrees east by compass. I headed over and took a sounding from time to time. At eleven a.m., as the ship was going very slowly because of the light breeze from the west that prevailed and the sea was calm. I had the lifeboat hoisted out and manned by three volunteers for the purpose first of reconnaissance the exact nature of the land, and secondly to have a tug sent out. I hoisted at it, listen the signal "YP"—I required a tug. I gave the p. m. I recognized Fayal to port and the p. m. I recognized augur to port and the p. m. I recognized augur from port and heading for me. At three p. m. I doused sail (one lib, two staysails and one fore-and-aft mainsail). These sauls allowed to steer to a certain extent, and drove us about three knots when we had a fine sea and a good breeze. They were made from tablecloths, sheets, bedspreads and blackets. The weather did not permit of their being used at all times, because they were not very strong. At 25 minutes past the Sin-Mac took me in toow about five miles southwest of Fayal and brought me into the port of Horta. At half-past four the Sin-Mac took in her tow line and a patrol boat of the port put me alongside the French four-masted boat. "The coal for the galley was all expended by January 26. The galley fire was made from the wood of the broken mess table and benches. I estimate that I might have held out for 20 days longer, but not more than that, because all the provisions and water would have been gone by that time."
IS TOO CONSCIENTIOUS
Objects to War and Gets 15 Years in Penitentiary.
He not only was a conscientious objector to war but also had similar conscientious scruples against kitchen police duty, signing the pay roll or helping police the battery area. Officers stated at the court-martial at Columbia, S. C., that his conscience stood in the way of any kind of work he was asked to do. That's why Private Nussbaum, according to the territorial enclosure judge, fifteen years at hard labor in the Fort Leavenworth military prison and is deprived of all his pay and allowance. At the expiration of his term Nussbaum is to be dishonorably discharged.
BULLET DIDN'T KILL
Moose Lived for Days With One in Its Heart.
The head of a bull moose, which lived for days and perhaps for weeks with a bullet in its heart, now graces the west door of the South Dakota capitol at Pierre. It has an antler spread of six feet. The animal was killed by B. A. Cummins of Pierre while hunting in Canada and the mounting was done at Winnipeg.
When the moose was dissected the bullet was found in its heart, covered with rust, and hunters believe that the animal had carried the bullet for a considerable length of time. The moose seemingly was in the best of health when killed.

‘What ePENDING.
Are you a wise spender? Wise
spending is regarded as a highly im-
portant preliminary to thrift by the
U.S, Treasury, As part of its cam-
paign for promoting popular savings
through Thrift and War Savings
Stamps during 1919, it has issued
through its Savings Division the fol-
lowing definition of wise spending,
which merits the thoughtful attention
ot every family and every individual
who would get ahead in life:
‘Wise spending implies the balane-
ing of all needs and of all means of
meeting «these needs and, after bal-
ancing needs against means, spending
in such a way as to meet the most
urgent needs, even if lesser ones have
to be left unsatisfled; in essence it
means a sort of budget-making. When
a family, city or state makes a budget,
what it does essentially is to take a
comprehensive view of both needs and
income. It is important that not all
the income be spent on the first needs
that may occur lest other more urgent
needs appear and no’ funds be left to
‘meet them; that is, thought must be
taken so that available income can be
‘applied intelligently and wisely to
cover most important needs and to
satisfy them somewhat in proportion
to their relative importance.
‘Perhaps the most important and
difficult problem in connection with
wise spending (or saving) is to real-
ize the relative importance of future
as compared with present needs. The
temptation of all of us is to satisty
present needs at the neglect of future
needs. It is very foolish to neglect
the urgent necessities of today for the
petty wants of the morrow, but few
need very much persuasion to induce
them to take care of the present.
Where most of us are foolish or un-
wise is in satisfying petty wants of
the present rather than saving in or-
der that urgent needs of the future
can be met.”

“HUMAN NATURE’S FOULEST BLOT.”
My ear is pained
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.

cess which are as applicable in this
1919 year of necessary thrift as in his
day. Here are some of his words on
the use of money und resources that
might have been written for the pres-
ent situation in America:
I cannot enjoin too strongly upon
you for a due observance of economy
and,frugality.
‘There is no proverb in the whole
catalogue of them more true than a
penny saved is a penny got.
Keep an account book and enter
therein every farthing of your receipts
and expenditures,
Nothing but harmony, honesty, in-
dustry, and frugality are necessary to
‘make us a great and happy nation.
‘These statements by George Wash-
ington as to wise personal economy
‘might be paraphrased today in the in-
function of the National Thrift Cam-
paign—spend wisely, save intelligent-
ly, avoid waste—and invest safely;
buy War Savings Stamps and Thrift
Stamps.
GETTING AFTER BOLSHEVIKI.
National interest surrounds the so-
called bolshevik meetings, which have
been held in Washington, D. C., and
which many Senate and House lead-
ers feel"are spreading thfoughout the
country. In order to combat this so-
called lawless propaganda, the Senate
adopted a resolution which extends
the powers of the Senate Committeo
on Judiciary, which is now invest
gating German propaganda, to investi
gate other activities, which it is
charged, are attempting to incite the
overthrow of the Government, In di-
rect connection with this resolution,
Senator Miles Poindexter, introduced
a resolution in which the Attorney
General is called upon to report wheth-
er an investigation is being made con-
cerning these meetings in Washington
and what steps were taken to enforce
the law in the District of Columbia,

Did Newt Baker take into consider:
ation the workings of the Burlesonized
postal service (?) when he ordered
that soldiers abroad might marry by
mail? That old song, “Waiting at the
Church,” will no doubt be revived with
8 meaning all its own. Imagine the
sweet, young bride writing to. her
Romeo, “I do,” and after waiting five
months, getting the letter back
marked, “Return to Writer.” That's
enough to take the romance out of
anything. No doubt the “best execu-
tive I have ever known” will see fit
to ride into the limelight with some
more publicity by making another or-
der permitting divoreés by mail. The
idea certainly won't be complete with-

most comprehensive ever proposed.

‘The foreign affairs committee of the

ordered favorably reported a resolu-
tion expressing the hope that the peace
conference would “favorably consider
the claims of Ireland to the right of
self-determination.”
Four of the seventeen members of
the committee attending the meeting
were understood to have voted against
the resolution.
‘The text follows:
“Resolved, by the house of represent.
atives (the senate concurring) that it
is the earfiest hope of the congress of
the United States of America that the
peace conference now sitting in Paris

peoples will favorably consider the
claims of Ireland to the right of self.
determination.”
‘This action leaves the shortsighted
colored men who have opposed the
sending of colored representatives to
the Peace Congress to appeal for jus-
tice to the colored people of America,
without a leg upon which to stand.
If the U. S. Congress can ask the
Peace Congress to interfere in the in-

cannot the colored people of the

THE REPRESENTATIVES IN
nesencen
There has been some misconcep-
tion as to the functions of the repre-
sentatives elected by the National
Colored Congress which met in
Washington in December, to go to
France and present the case of the
colored American to the world, dur-
ing the sessions of the Peace Con-
gress.
‘These people have no official status
whatever, and no one connected with
the congress has, so far as we know,
made any such claim, certainly the
convention at its meeting did not.
They are not in any sonse “dele-
gates” and have no such standing.
‘They can not attend the meetings of
the Peace Conference. * That ought
tobe clear to everyone who is at all
well informed about the questions of
the day.
AS*THE APPEAL understands the
matter, the representatives are to go
to France and uso their moral in-
fluence to afd in the abolition of the
color line in all the world, Neces-
sarily they must work through the
delegates of the United States and
other nations which have regularly
accredited delegates. ‘That is all
that they can do. The congress un-
derstood that and the representatives
understand their limitations,
However, the representatives may
Possibly be able to do sole very ef-
fective work. ‘They may tell the
world of the utterly undemocratic
treatment of the colored people in
the U. 8. A., and they may add their
Yolee, even if it is a feeble one, to
the general demand of the Colored
World for the abolition of all dis-
criminations based on color, creed or
sex, and may really aid in the realiza-
tion of Uberty, fraternity and equal-
ity for all men.
Just what the proposed “League
of Nations” will be no man knows—
Ro one knows just how far it will in-
terfere with the internal questions
of the various nations, but with Ja-
Pan, one of the great powers, and

Who came here to France on a “spe-

ADOPTED BY THE NATIONAL COLORED CONGRESS FOR WORLD DE-
MOCRACY UNDER THE AUSPICES OF THE NATIONAL EQUAL
RIGHTS LEAGUE AT WASHINGTON, D. G. DEG. 18, 1918.
Colored America, through delegates assembled from 37 of the United
States of America, sore and bleeding with persecution because of race and
color, hails with hope peace with victory, for the motto on tho banners of
the armies of the victors was “Away with tyranny and its injustice every-
where.” Speaking for 12,000,000 Colored Americans, tho National ‘Colored
Representative Assembly for World Democracy under the auspices of the
National Equal Rights League congratulate their fellow Countrymen and
their government on being the instrument by which the God of righteousness
turned the tide of battle for the forces of liberty.
War Put On World Basis As To The Results.
‘Two hemispheres and the islands of two oceans furnished without regard
to race or color the armies of this bloody and terrible war. Shameful it
would be if its close did not mark a new humane era, ‘To the President of
our Republic, Commander-in-Chief of our army and navy {t was given to name
the principles on which the winners fought this war. and its purpose. By
his declaration, accepted by France, Britain and the rest openly before the
human race, the principles and the sim of this war were put upon a world
dasis. Secondly these principles and aima wore for tho wiping out of autoc-
racy, inbumanity and injustice, and for the establishment of world justice,
world humanity and world democracy.
Wrongs To Individual On World Basis For Redress.
With the ushering in of the new year, 1919, the nations of the world are
assembled to settle the torms of peaco for the world, for the establishment
everywhere of the principles for which this world war was waged by the
forces of democracy.
‘Therefore every denial or violation of justice, humantty and democracy
hao become a matter FOR CORRECTION AND ABROGATION ON A WORLD
BASIS BY A WORLD COURT.
Hence Colored America, which furnished 400,000 brave soldiers tor this
war backed by over 12,000,000 loyal citizens without a traitor, appeals to the
allied World for justice and Democracy in the peace settlement,
Utterly Undemocratlc Treatment Of Colored People of U. 8. A.
Citizens by law of the United States of America, the famous Republic
ot the West, we firat appeal to the efvilized world for the discontinuance of
all race or’ class discrimination in the world peace settlement. At this
supreme moment in the cause of universal humanity, when wrongs to man
should be banished, we must call world attention to the utterly undemo-
eratic conditions under which every person of color is foreed to live in thie
country. Because of race autocracy, our color in the Nation's Capital de-
prives us of every civil right except in public carriors and subjects, us to
rejection or to the restriction of the Ghetto as employees of the. federal
government. Otherwise our color in many parts of the country deprives us
of every civil, political, social and judicial right; subjects us to-obloquy,
imposition, deprivations, injustices, cruelties, atrocities, woreo in degree thes
exist anywhere else in Christendom. Sogregation in ‘publc carriore, dis-
franchisement, lynching are essentially violations of that world democracy
tor which the’ war was tought.
Self-determination For Darker Nations.
‘That the tremendous material and appalling human losses of this world
War may not be without result for good, we appeal to the poaco conclave
to grant selfdeterménation and rights without discrimination to all of te
larker nations.
‘The Appeal Sent By Race Petitioners For Universal Abolition Of Color
roscription.
On our part we shall send race petitioners to the assembly of the repre-
sentatives of the civilized world meeting to make good the promise of the
victors in the world war, to petition for the abolition of autocracy of race
against Colored persons everywhere, and to appeal to this world Court for
the discontinuance of color proscription and all distinctions basod on color,
civic, political and judicial IN EVERY NATION AS AN ARTICLE OF THE
FDACE AGREEMENT, that the world may be remade truly on the basis of
the liberation of the people of the earth, and of the enjoyment by every
human being of world democracy.
Else There Is No “New Day.”
For without this there will not be the dawning of a new day of democ-
racy, mor of @ new era of permanent peace after the most terrible and
gigantic war ever known embracing two hemispheres in a death grapple
between the forces of autocracy and of democracy” .

that he “emphasized” the fact that the
colored soldiers should return “mod-
est and unassuming.” This advice
given by Dr. Moton appeared to in-
terest these two American newspa-
pers published in Paris, and it is ac-
cepted that his “special” mission to
France, at this time, and just at the
time when colored soldiers who have
been for months fighting in France
are about to return to the United
States, is to impress upon them that
they should be “modest and unassum-
ing” on thelr return, and to accept
quietly, and uncomplainingly what-
ever discrimination and segregation
may be imposed on them in the States
on their return, after having fought
for months for world democracy.

One of the most beautiful paintings in St. Paul recently was that given by Mr. and Mrs. W. B. Tandy, in honor of the repatriation of their daughter, Miss Kathryn on Friday evening of last week. There were a lot of the Twin Cities' beautiful buds present, handsomely gowned, and of course "the boys" were there too. The young lady received a number of handsome and useful presents. Of course the usual elegant Tandy refreshments were served. Dancing was the feature.
Mr. Thomas G. McCampbell, of Kansas City, Mo., G. H. P., R. A. M. Missouri jurisdiction was in the city on his annual official visit last week.

Sherwood, 971 St. Anthony avenue. He enjoyed his visit in every way and was loud in praise of the hospitable people of St. Paul.
The Union Hall Association has made another advance in its progress toward paying the indebtedness on its hard work. The winners' 'Bazzerie' concur last Monday. Tuesday and Wednesday evenings.

Wigington and Miss Florence Robinson were the winners; Wednesday night, Mr. Archie Brown and Miss Loma Dickson and Mr. Roscoe Harris and Miss Jessie Beard tied for the prize but the management generously presented a box of candies to each of the contestants, and a box of candy was awarded to each of the ladies who won on Monday and Tuesday evenings. There was lots of fun each night, and all who attended had all the enjoyment they wished. The Association is to be congratulated upon its success.
On Friday evening of last week, Mrs. E. M. Hill, 1373 University Ave., gave a most delightful six o'clock dinner at her elegant home under the auspices of the Willing Workers Club, of Memorial Baptist Church, Mrs. S. W. Williams, president. The dinner was conceived and successfully carried out by Mrs. Hill, chairman of the committee, assisted by Mrs. T. W. Banks, Mrs. W. M. King, Mrs. Evelyn Johnson, assistant chairman, Mrs. E. L. Patrick, and Mrs. Ed. Robinson. The menu was as follows: Celery, olives, pickles, Kentucky oysters, chicken and dumplings, candied yams, white potatoes, cold slaw, corn bread, white bread, coffee, ice cream and cake. The dinner was well patronized and pleased the gastronomical tastes of who partook of it. Rev. T. B. Stovall brought quite a delegation from Minneapolis, and Rev. T. J. Carr did the same for St. Paul. Exactly $30 was realized, for which Hill and the Willing Worners tender thanks to the generous patrons of the Twin Cities.
Mrs. W. W. McCoy, 478 Central avenue, contemplates going to Canada to visit her husband shortly. So her daughter, Mrs. Lilliam McKnight conceived the idea of tendering her a farewell surprise party. She got the as-
sistance of some of her neighbors and friends of the Twin Cities and the result was a genuine surprise when Mrs. McCoy, who had attended a movie, came home Wednesday night, she found it in possession of twenty of her lady friends. It would have been a veritable Adamless Eden but Mr. J. Q. Adams slipped in for a few moments. He did not stay long and after his departure the coterie of God's last and best gift to man, enjoyed themselves according to the bent of their inclination. A very delightful luncheon was served and about noon at night the ladies departed wishing Mrs. McCoy bon voyage.
The decorations, cakes and ice cream were George Washington emblems of red, white and blue; and each lady was presented a souvenir hatchet.
Mr. and Mrs. J. Q. Adams took a trip to Stillwater on last Sunday afternoon to visit the Lindsay family. On arrival they were surprised to find the family and a number of friends of Stillwater and the Twin Cities celebrating the 68th birthday anniversary of Mrs. Phoebe Lindsay. Of course they entered into the spirit of the occasion and incidentally had the pleasure of enjoying a dinner that for quality of the dainty and elaborate menu and for class of service they have never seen surpassed. And it was all the more enjoyable because of the fact that it was entirely an ocular, tangible and toothsome specimen of the culinary art and skill of Mrs. Lindsay, Miss Era, Miss Lindsay, Miss Era is salesily with Simmont Bros, the leading furniture store of Stillwater, where she has been for fourteen years, which is evidence that she has "made good." She is also quite an expert with the brush and palette and has produced a number of fine paintings. The occasion was highly enjoyed by all who were present to wish Mrs. Lindsay many happy returns of the day.

NO COLOR LINE TO BE DRAWN.
It will be remembered that some weeks ago the hired manager of "Ucle Sam's Club" for Soldiers and Sailors, corner of Fourth and Cedar Sts., refused to allow some colored soldiers who went there, to enjoy its privileges. Some members of the Equal Rights League interested themselves in the proper authorities at Washington, D. C., and the answer has come that no distinctions on account of color are to be made in that club.
A BAD BILL.
The bill to establish "An Additional Battalion for the Minnesota National Guard" has been before the Military Committee and been recommended to pass. It has been somewhat amended and some, objectionable features have been taken out, but it is just about as objectionable as ever, and should it pass, which it does, it should short-sighted colored men who were the cause of its being framed will very probably have cause to regret that such legislation was enacted in Minnesota.
As a matter of fact there is absolutely no need for such a bill. The bill under which the present Minnesota National Guard was organized is all that is needed except that IT be amended to authorize the organizing of other battalions just as exactly as the ones now in existence were organized. There is no necessity whatever for the bill in question and it should not pass.
MEMORIAL MENTIONINGS.
The talk of the Rev. C. Mohammed last Sunday evening was a unique treat.
Among the several recent additions is the Rev. G. M. Davis of Gary, Indiana.
