who was carried back and forth for
three trips across the East River, let

the story is vouched for by a reliable
witness. who is ready to make an af-

Charities.
Ambulance Out of Commission.
In regard to other complaints Of in
efficient ambulance service at various
institutions, notably Kings County
Hospital. where a White Steamer am
bulance has been out Of commission
for months for the lack Of simple re-
pairs. Commissioner Kingsbury says:
Ut is a fact that this ambulance has
been out Of commission since Janu-
airy. and 10 is a fact that it is badly
needed; but il is also fact that 1t IS
an old ambulance Of a type no longer
made. and il would cost as much TO
put it in shape foN operation as new
one would cost, whiSh would be waste
Of money
In regard TO the lack Of mattresses
at the Kings County Hospital and
Cumberland Street Hospital, which
Father Farrell alleges was caused by
the failure Of Commissioner Kings
bury to honor a requisition for 5000
pounds Of fibre from which TO make
them. the latter retorts that no such
requisition was ever held up.

was ignored" said Father Farrell last
night. "and that later Commissioner
Kirgsbury became highly indignant be-
cause Of the resulting scarcity OF mat
tresses in the hospitals"
Commissioner Kingsbury asserts that
The transportation facilities to Sea
View Hospital are taken care of by a
private bus service from the terminal
Of the trolley line outside Castleton
-Four Corners TO the institution, dis
lance OF two miles.
"That is also a plea Of guilty said
Father Farrell, because those who
patronize the private service are
obliged to pay their way. Ny specific
charge was that the poor who visit
their sick and dying at Sea View are
compelled 70 walk to and from the hos
ritai. as the result of the discontinu-
ance Of the free bus service formerly
maintained

Screens Wait on Approval.

AS 10 the lack Of screens at Sea View,
where Father Farrell alleges that the
consumptive patients are exposed %
flies and other insect pests, Commits
sioner Kingsbury retorts that the hos
pital will soon be provided with
screens. and that contracts for the
work were prepared in June and sub
mitted 20 the Board Of Estimate, but
have not yet been approved.
Commissioner Kingsbury also takes
ID the charge that, for reasons OF
economy. ambulatory patients at Sea
View are compelled TO help in the work
Of cleaning.

ready for it, and the kaiser believed
his forces were best prepared, says
the Atchi sen Globe. 1t will end some
time after an awful price has been
paid. No great war will follow soon,
although little ones are likely; the
great powers will find themselves
weakened by this Herculean effort.
But that viii not prevent another
later if the battered and jealousies en-
gendered are permitted to shape
themselves in policy of continued
militarisni. Such course will only
double the burden made by this one,
and mean repetition of the per-
formance at later date. Let us
hope that common sense will prevail
1t is the best that can come from this
war, if good may arise from so great

Constipation in summer time is

often contaminated and is more likely
to ferment in your stomach. Then
you are apt TO drink much cold wa

THE LAST GREAT WAR"


Hopeful ones like to tell you that
this, which promises to be the worlds
worst war, will be the last. Did
Tennyson have prophetic vision or
make a good guess? Already has been
seen ''the nations airy navies grap-
pling i'll the heavenly blue" Whether
this is. to be followed by federation
of the world and a parliament of man
which shall deal justly and peacefully
with all problems, remains TO be seen.
1t is something to hope for, but seems
improbable when much of the world
is hostile. But if this is the last great
war, change in the policy OF nations
is needed, more marked than any
provided by past peace t.e2t-es. |. )
a change tending toward disarma-
ment. Powerful navies and general
preparedness spell war instead of
peace. That is proven in this col
lossal conflict brought on by the ma
tion which has made war preparation
its greatest business, and which
found the other powers almost as
ready for the fray. The cause of
this contest was trifling, and of no
direct interest to the great forces en-

In these days of wars and rumors

darkened windows, where sweet voices
sing the praises of the meek and low

blood that we and others might be
ennobled by the fruits of his sacri-
flee.
While the day of rest is being pro-
famed by other nations of the earth
while shot and shell are leaving the
maimed and the dead and dying on
the crimson field of carnage-let US of
America give heed to the wisdom of
the black robed men of God, whose
teachings proclaim peace on earth
and good will to men.
While the Omnipotent One is bow
ed with grief that His children in
other climes should be as the beasts
of the jungle-rending, tearing, de-
stroying-let us look into our own
hearts, that we may avoid the pit
falls that are engulfing our brothers
