Discussion of National Defense.

The other topic I shall take leave to
mention goes deeper into the prin-
ciples of our national life and policy.
1t is the subject of national defense.
1t cannot be discussed without first
answering some very searching ques-
tions. 1t is said in some quarters that
we are not prepared for war. What
is meant by being prepared? Is it
meant that we are not ready upon
brief notice to put nation in the field.
a nation of men trained to arms? OF
course we are not ready to do that:
and we shall never be in time of peace SO
long as we retain our present political
principles and institutions. And what
is it that it is suggested we should be
prepared to do? To defend ourselves
against attack? We have always
found means to do that. and shall find
them whenever it is necessary with
out calling our people away from their
necessary tasks to render compulsory
military service in times of peace.

Says Sulphur Drives
Eczema From the Skin
Use like cold cream and instantly
stop itching and clear the
skin.

Sulphur, says a renowned dermatol-
ogist, just common bold-sulphur made
into thick cream will soothe and
heal the skin when irritated and
broken out with Eczema or any form
of eruption. The moment it is applied
all itching ceases and after two or
three applications the Eczema disap-
pears, leaving the skin clear and
smooth.
He tells Eczema sufferers to get
from any good pharmacy an ounce of
bold-sulphur cream and apply it to
the irritated parts the same as you
would any cold cream.
For many years common bold-sul.
phur has occupied a secure position in
the practice of dermatology and cutan-
eous affections by reason of its para
site-destroying property. 1t is not only
parasitfcidal, but also antipruritic,
antiseptic and remarkably healing in
all irritable and inflammatory con-
ditions of the skin While not always
effecting a permanent cure it never
fails to instantly subdue the angry
itching and irritation and heal the
Eczema right up and it is often years
later before any eruption again ap-
pears on the skin.

Visiting society. There will be no
money connected with this. The mem
bers can visit the sick Respondent, or
needy and cheer or advise them. The
Legal Aid society is another organiza-
ton l expect to organize as poor peo-
pie sometimes are engaged in litiga-
ton
The Humane society and the Coun-
ty Council of Charities will be re-or-
ganized. The county organization will
be under the name of the Central
Council
The courts. police and prosecuting
attorney are also on the list of agen-
cies Sometimes we expect to have
to turn men over to the police or HUI
name society or other correctional
agencies.
Our object will not be to get rid of
every case of charity as soon as posi-
bic after we get it. We will have a
pension system. however, to use in
some cases.
The first point in the psychology
we use is that no two persons will act
alike. Therefore We do not attempt to
use the same treatment merely be-
cause it worked out satisfactorily in a
previous case. Each case will be treat
ed irregardless of previous cases The
only foregoing circumstances which
will enter are those credited directly
to the persons themselves. We also
keep a record of physical and mental
disabilities, moral defects and Grim

NIGHT CLASS BOARD
PLACES LEFT OPEN
School Officials Take More
Time to Deliberate on APP
pOintmentS.

Because enough consideration hao
not been given to appointments, the
boards to advise vocational training
at the night school were not named
yesterday. Another meeting of the
school officers will be held this week,
at. which time the appointments will
be made.
Superintendent Giles said today
that since the visit of Deputy State
Superintendent w. F. Book he had re-
ceived many inquiries from persons
wishing to enter the industrial classes.
More women than men have evidenced
a desire to take up the work.
No classes will be organized with
less than twelve members. the limit
set by the state board of education.
The board does not feel that a teacher
would be justified in giving full time
to smaller number.
The academic course of the night
school will be open for fifty nights,
ten more nights than last year. The
course will be divided into two terms.
the first term being concluded at
Christmas.
The nights on which the school will
operate have not been decided. This
will be left to the teachers and pupils

unfortunately joined, because of her
long jealousy of German trade and
colonial expansion. The violation OF
Belgium's neutrality is the reason Eng.
land gives, but we now we'll know that
the Belgians had a secret agreement
with France to allow French troops to
pass through her territory. So it was
merely question of who violated the
neutrality first, and the Germans got
ahead. The most unnatural political
alliance ever formed is that which
joins England and France to savage
despotism like Russia. This is a wal
of races to decide whether the Mus
covite or the German shall be supreme
in Europe. England finds herself
fighting with yellow heather Japanese
and Russians, against the nations OF
Germanic race, which is her own

from England and French sources, ap
prove this combination.
For my part. l believe the German
Austrian coalition will triumph; Rus

where she belongs, and France Grip
