CLEANUP TIME HERE.

Spring is here, not only according
to the calendar, but in reality. There
was a bit of frost last night, result
ing from the widespread rains of
the past few days, but today the sun
is shining brightly and the atmos-
phere is warming up cheerfully.
April, with it's warm rains and sun
shine is here and everything in ma
ture will begin to put on new dress.
1t behooves man to get busy too.
The time for activity is here. Let
us all shake off the lethargy of the
winter season and bestir ourselves.
The first thing people generally
ought to think about in connection
with the family and community life
is to do the spring cleaning up. We
could wish for an official campaign,
but in the absence of this very eff
ficient and wholesome plan adopted
by many enterprising communities,
there is nothing whatever to prevent
every man, woman and child in the
community from doing his part indi-
vidually for the rehabilitation of the
sanitary conditions of the community.
During the cold months, there have
been accumulations of dirt and rub
bish everywhere, and it is not too
early to get rid of them. Let every
person get busy in the work of clean
ing up. The house, the store, the
barn, the shop and every other place
in the community demands attention
at this time, and the municipal au-
thorities must not think that they
are exempt. They have the biggest
job of all on their hands, in looking
after the streets and alleys. Some
of these public places demand i'm
mediate attention, in order to keep
the sanitary conditions wholesome
Town officials ought to set the pace
in the matter of the spring clean up
Their attitude toward this important
matter is quite likely to be copied by
the business men and the household
| ers

WHAT THE w. q. T. U. is DOING.

A retrospective glance over the
last twelve months indicates that the
National Woman's Christian Tenn
perance Union occupies an advanced
and ever advancing position; that
more than ever is our organization
loved and appreciated by those who
are interested in the uplift of the
people and more than ever is it hat
ed and derided by the liquor makers,
liquor sellers and all liquor devotees.
This could not be otherwise for the
w. G.. T. u. is true to its declaration
of principles, one section of which
should evermore be engraved upon
the hearts of all who wear the white
ribbon. We believe in the gospel
of the Golden Rule and that each
ones habits of life should be an ex-
ample safe and beneficient for every
other one to follow" The church
of Christ is taking higher ground
than ever before. The clergyman of
today who drinks is an exception.
Insurance companies in Great
Britain, America, Sweden, Norway
and Germany, are discriminating
against those who drink even in
moderation. The liquor traffic that
threatens the destruction of all that
is best in our nations life is fast be-
coming a national as well as a state
question and we will have to work
together for it's destruction.
A summary of the report of the
Committee on Temperance of the
Federal Council of the Churches of
Christ in America which recently
met in Chicago is as follows:
The saloon keeper is to-day a
parish. The grog-selling tavern
keeper is no longer an influential
man in the community; the still
house is not run by elders and dea-
cons. Public sentiment has changed.
All business now demands sobriety
in employees. By their official action
the railroads give us million and a
half of sober men.
More than twenty millions school
children are, by the requirements OF
law, taught the perils of alcohol.
Despite all efforts of the brewers,
the Unites States government posi-
lively refuses to become saloonkeep-
ers to its soldiers. Nine large states
have entirely prohibited the liquor
traffic, by vote of the people.
But perhaps the best proof that
the temperance cause is progressing
is the fact that the statesmen of the
great nations of the world now re-
gard the liquor problem as a great
world problem. To solve that prob
lem they have organized the Inter
national Alcohol Congress. This
congress meets biennially or once in
two years. 1t is attended by eminent
medical specialists as well as by
statesmen. Our nation is officially
represented at this congress.
The liquor traffic must be destroy.
ed. The wisdom, the intelligence
the civilization, the religion of the
age declares that the saloon must
go and it is going 1t is the advanc-
ing tide of civilization. Let us as
a Union labor to that end and may
God help us to help make our slo-
gan, "a saloonless nation in 1920,'
a reality.

YOUR RESPONSIBILITY.

Splitting and poor ventilation in
the steam and electric cars are re-
sponsible for many of the colds and
attacks of influenza that are pre-
valent just now. But do not blame
the railroad companies. Blame
yourself.
AS long as people insist upon sit
ting in superheated cars, as long as
they grow frantic at the sight of an
open window, and as long as they
are Indifferent to splitting in the
trains, the railroad cars will continue
to carry disease germs. 1t is the
attitude of the public that is to
blame for the conductor who pays no
attention to the man splitting upon
the tioor but who hastens to ask the
passenger beside an open window to
close it.
In the cars of a trolley line that
connects two Pennsylvania towns,
splitting has practically been abolish
ed. The travelling public demands
it. This month one of the biggest
railroads in the state ordered its
conductors to see that splitting in
their cars was stopped. This was
done because group of citizens in
terested one of the officials in this
subject.
Insist upon proper ventilation and
the stopping of splitting in the trains.
Your protest with the protests of
others will be bound to have its ef-
feet. The obtaining of hygienic con-
ditions in travelling is largely your
responsibility. See that you live up
to it.-Karl de Schweinitz, Executive
Secretary, Pennsylvania Society for
the Prevention of tuberculosis.

Rule for Finding Golden Number OF
ANY Year.

Any Year.
The Golden Number of any yeal
can be found by adding 1 to the
number representing the year in
ordinary notation, and then divid
ing the sum by 19, the remainder be-
ing the Golden Number for thai
year. For instance, add / to 1918
divide by 19, and the quotient il
100, with IA remainder, and this re
mainder is the Golden Number o.
the year 1913. 1t shows that 1915
is the fourteenth year in MetoniC
Cycle, and that five years later there
will be a new moon on January 1
The date of the first full moon of the
year being known, it is easy to cal
culate the dates of all the other new
and full moons that follow. The frs
new moon of this year occurred OF
January Z.

Bebel

August Bebel. the leading hight
OF German socialism died recently
in Berlin. He found socialism
in Germany little but theory
with few phelosophic adj
herents. He leaves it as
solid palltical party comprising
the labor classes as well as edu
Gated theorists. He methodrzed
Socialism; and pacified it, He
was opposed to revolution and
blood-shed. He worked tor
peaceful change i'll the economic
conditions. Bebel was marshall
ing his forces for a complete
change, socially, economically,
and politically. but II was to be
gradual and natural with him.
His success as reformer was
phenominal. Many OF his ad
versaries since his death have
been trying toanalvze the causes
of his popularity and success.
Most Of them attribute it to his
honesty OF purpose, and true de
votion to the working classes OF
Germany.
Germany has lost one of her
great men, and appreciates the
fact. August Bebel will always
be known as a statesman who
truly loved his country. but ore
who held humanity as more
sacred than national boundary
lines.
