CHURCH OBSERVES
ALL SAINTS DAY

Despite the changes in arrange
ments for the observance of All-Saints
Day in the ST. Andrews Catholic CON
gregation more than two thousand
members of the church gathered at
the building yesterday afternoon. The
service was a memorial to the dead.
1t had formerly been the custom to
join in a professional and march to
the cemetery, but this year this was
abandoned owing to the condition of
the West Liberty pike.
The choir sang from the oratorio
"AIl-Saints." Father Roell preached
a brief sermon on "Purgatory." The
services closed with chanted prayer
for the souls of the deceased parish
oners.
This morning Father Roell and a
large number OF the church members
went to the mortuary chapel in St
Andrews cemetery where a mass was
held for the dead. The graves of the
dead we're decorated with flowers and
a visit to each mound was made.
Over the graves a prayer was said by
Father Roell.

Parcel Post Feature Makes
Slow Headway.

The c. o. D. feature of parcel post
deliveries, inaugurated three months
ago by the postoffice department is
making very slow Roadway in Rich
mond. 1t was believed at the time it
was started, it would overcome one of
the Objectionable features of the par
eel post delivery in that it would guar
antee the sender immediate payment
for his goods. During the last month
165 parcels We're sent through the To-
cal postoffice with a collect stamp on
them. Practically all of them were at
tached to repair parts for automobiles.
During the month 1875 insured par
cells were sent out and 231 received.
Postal receipts during the month were
about 5000 in excess of those of the
same month Of 1912. The receipts
amounted to S717s.26, giving a surplus
for the month of $337746.

A NEW EXPOSITION IDEA
To Be Presented BY the National Con-
servation Exposition, Knox
vile, Tennessee, 1918.

During the first decade Of the TWEEN
tieth century new realization Of the
value and Importance of the natural
resources took shape. Through scien-
tific surveys by State and the Federal
Government, designed primarily to
make the resources known and guide
their exploitation, the quantities of
standing timber, of iron ore and coal
in the ground and of other natural
materials, were measured; and the
quantities were found not unlimited
according to the common boast IN the
.heydey OF early exploitation, but Of
such amounts as to meet current de-
mands for only a certain number OF
years, easily reckoned and understood
in terms OF the written history Of man
kind-e. g., at the current increasing
rate of use computed in 1908 the stand
ing timber of the country would last
a generation, the high-grade iron ore
a century, and the good coal from one
to- three centuries, according to the
varying allowances made by different
computers. In short, 1t became clear
that the standard resources on which
our great and growing industries rest
are foredoomed to exhaustion within
small fraction. Of the period already
covered by the Christian era, unless
means be adopted to prevent waste
and otherwise conserve the natural

understanding Of the limitation Of the
natural resources spread. moral sense
was awakened; the feeling Of the nat
ural right Of the rising generation
1and OF generations still to GOMEZ to a
fair share of the resources took form:
and the natural wealth of this mag
nifcently endowed country came to be
viewed as involving moral no less than
material considerations. Numberless
manifestations Of the new view have
apeared-in legal enactments, the Gre
alton of state commissions, the i'm
provement Of educational curricrla.
etc; but no more striking indication
of the modern view has appeared tnan
the idea of a}national exposition de-
signed to illustrate the conservation
and development Of the natural re-
sources with asvieW to the permanent
enrichment of the country and people.
The change thus wrought in the expo
sition idea is fundamental; the old
exposition looked backward, the new
looks forward; the old exposition was
solely material, the new is essentially
moral; the old was a proud boast Of
achievement. the new a signpost to

particular.

There are now over 200 inquiries
for admission of feeble-minded chill
dren to the School for Feeble-mind-
ed at kinston. The State Board of
Charities reports 344 IN aims houses
and jails. The Legislature. of 1911
appropriated the sum of $50, 900 to
begin the building of the School for
Predetermined. This sam has been
spent, or provision made for spend
ing it, yet TIE Institution will lack
nearly $40, 900 of having enough to
begin its operation before anything
can be accomplished.
The School for the Feeble minded
should be made large enough to care
for at least five or six hundred of
these children. By far the larger
number of these detectives are the
ofsprings of detectives and the
State has allowed nearly ten gener-
atoms TO increase and has done
nothing to prevent its decrease.
Prevention SEEMS to cost much
yet the only way to- really check
this increase is to take all of these
cases into the Institution and prevent
them from bringing into the world
Others like them selves. There are
other cases which education in
Eugenics will very, largely help to
regulate. The first step should be
to make provision this year at this
session Of the Legislature for the five
OF. six hundred now entitled to adj
mission.

are wise enough to check such
measures atonce and to,check this
constantly growing plumber they
will continue to spend their money
Intellectually. LET'S persuade eur
Legislature to take liberty however,
to make proper provision for the
care or the few feeble. minded now
rather than them and their offspring
in another generation. 1t is the
