THE WAR.

In this twentieth century, it
seems almost a travesty on the
christian religion, that so called
christian nations should go to war
involving the probable expenditure
of billions of dollars and the
slaughter of millions of men and
the terrible misery that it will
cause. One would almost con-
clude that the christian religion had
proven failure in the redemption
of the world.

Vacant Lots-If there is no way by which
the city can force owners of vacant lots
IN our residential sections to clean them
and put them in somewhat presenta BILE
condition, the neighborhoods in which
they are should resort to some means to
bring about a change. One good cleaning
done by the cooperation of the people
around them will go a long way toward
keeping them in that condition, and might
be the means of reaching the owners and
inducing them TO take a little interest in

Then, you can have seeds of moonvines,

are best transplanted in the flower gar

lightly covered, is the start A mistake
is frequently made in watering seed boxes

by setting the box in tub with water
Just deep enough to reach about half

and plants are coming through. They are
then easily damped off.

General Satisfaction Over

Appropriation Bill

Washington, February 15.-Cablegrams
exchanged by President Wilson and Sec
retary Garrison with Governor General
Harrison on the passage by the new
Philippine assembly of the first general
appropriation bill in three years were
made public today.
Governor Harrison announced the ac-
ton as demonstration of harmony in
the government at Manila. He said the
saving of $1,000,000 effected by the BILL
with other economies would avert the
treasury deficit impending when he
reached the islands Liberal provision
has been made for education and health
projects, he said. Salaries of 100 higher
officials, including the governor general,
have been cut from to 10 per cent.
Secretary Garrison sent through the
governor congratulations to both houses
of the legislature on the unanimty of
their action and expressed hope that this
Is but an indication or what may be ex-
pected in the future.

propriation,' cabled President Wilson.
Manuel l.. Quezon ana Manuel Earn
shaw. resident commissioners of the Phil
ippines at Washington, expressed great
satisfaction over the passage of the bill.
Mr. Quezon said the action of the assem-
