TUESDAY. ......... SEPTEMBER Is, 1914
1870 AND 1914

Forty-four years ago tomorrow the German
army invading France was established at
Meaux On September of this year the Ger
of the fighting that has now apparently turned
against them.
German headquarters were established at
Meaux on September 10, 1870, and the orders
issued for the investment of Paris. These or
ders directed the German army of the Meuse to
invest the capital in wide circle from the
Marine, above Paris, to the Seine below it, while
the third army was ordered to form similar
half circle on the left bank of both rivers.
The orders also specified that in case of any
attempt to relieve the capital the army was to
allow the relieving force to approach within a
short distance, and then, leaving the invest
ment to be maintained by weak details, to strike
the enemy with its main body
But today battling is under conditions quite
different from those that brought Germany
such tremendous victory in the last century.
The German advance to Meaux in the war of
1870 came after fateful Sedan, where Napoleon
III surrendered and the back of French re-
distance was broken. Then the Germans swept
Everything before them on the road to Paris

Every foot's advance since the first attack on
Liege has been over soil .drencehd with the
blood Of Teuton and Ally. The Allied armies
offered an elastic opposition to the Germans
that stiffened as thelatter advanced, until there
came point when German exhaustion and Al
lied resistance equalized the contending forces.
The fight then wavered for two or three days
and now apparently the Germans are suffering
severely as they retire.
In the confusion Of absolutely conflicting
clainls from Paris and Berlin, not to mention
London and St Petersburg or Petrograd- 1T

EDITOR
CHRISTIAN CITIZENSHIP AND DRINK.
By Bishop Lawrence.

Before the diocesan convention of the Trinity
Church, Boston, April %, Bishop Lawrence
after quoting the report of the commission to
cd these ringing words:
"Can any citizen of this commonwealth,
much less any member of Christ church listen
to such an Indictment and hear the sobs of
women and children without start of alarm,
of remorse, of questioning, what am doing !
What can | do!'
81. The time has passed when any intelligent
person claims that drink makes a man more
efficient, more able, a better soldier or sailor,
a better athlete, a better anything, unless it be
for the time boon companion. Industrial eff
iciency is driving the drinking man, even the
rather moderate drinking man, to the wall.
'2. Drink, and that not to excess but ha-
bitual, gradually disintegrates the physical,
nerve and moral fibre; the resisting power,
whether against disease or temptation weak
ems, and what is more tragic, the sons and
daughters reveal the fathers rather loose
habits of cocktails, champagne and whisky in
weakened bodies and more or less degenerate
systems. OF course there are apparent excep-
tions, but the general facts stand and the excep-
tions are more apparent than real.
80. Every publicspirited citizen, every par
ent, every man and woman who cares for his
fellowmen and women, every son and daughter
of the Church of Christ will have this terrible
scourge of society of which he is part upon
his conscience, and will in his personal habits
and his public duty govern himself according

Dear Sir: If my school teacher, af-

consideration tell my children where
they can get certain brand OF whis-
ky, and at the same time dilate upon
the supposed virtues of said whisky,
and IL do not wish my children to
drink whisky at all. would then be
justified in discharging my teacher?
If my children attended a church

where they can get the best whisky
for the least money, am | JUSTIFIED In

Edo not want my boys to drink whisky,

home?

SUGAR AND PROSPERITY IN PORTO
RICO

Publication is made at San Juan of the exter-
nal commerce statistics of Porto Rico for the
fiscal year ended June 30, 1914 The value Of
exports to the United States is given as $685.
100000, or about $6,O000O0 less than in 1913,
due it is said to the lower average price Of
sugar. However, the late advance in sugar
prices has materially benefited Porto Rico, con-
corning which the following statement appears
in the Porto Rico Progress for August 10, 1914:
Between 81, 1000 and $4,000 of the approx
mate 125,000 bags of sugar held in Porto Rico
when prices commenced to go up two weeks
ago were reported sold at 1852 per 100 pounds,
or just double the price prevailing before the
European war. On August sugar was quoted
at 1926 With $4,000 bags of sugar to dispose
of, Porto Rico sugar men have realized an in
creased profit of over 81 100000 inside of two
weeks AS result, sugar men throughout the
island are preparing to plant as much acreage
as possible for 1916.
