Alarming Increase In luracv.

A mad world Will perhaps be the
nnal outcome II the recent statistics
on lunacy in England continue at the
present rate of increase. One person
in every 266 in England and Wales il
officially declared TO be insane by the
report OF the commissioners In lunacy
issued recently These figures show
that the total number Of insane people
has increased by 1850 as compared
with that of the previous year. The
figures show the interesting facts that
both the well TO do and the criminal
classes are becoming saner. There are
Is fewer criminal lunatics. while pau.

WILSON SETS DAY FOR
PEACE PRAYER

Washington, Sept. i2. -~ President
Woodrow Wilson today signed the fol.
lowing proclamation calling for ma
ttonal day of prayer on October 4 to
pray for the cessation OF war in Eur
ope.
Whereas, great nations of the
world have taken up arms against one
another and war now draws millions of
men into battle whom the counsel of
statesmen have not been able to save
from the terrible sacrifice:
And whereas. In this as in all things,
1t Is our privilege and duty to seek
counsel and suecor of Almighty God,
humbling ourselves before Him, con
Tossing our weakness and our lack of
any wisdom equal To these things;
And whereas. it is the especial wish
and longing of the people of the United
States, in prayer and counsel and all
friendliness, to serve the cause of
peace,
Therefore, |. Woodrow Wilson,
president of the United States OF
America. do designate Sunday, the
fourth day of October, next, day of
prayer and duplication, and do request
all God~fearing persons to repair on

happiness nor true friendship nor any
