President Wilson'S proclama-
tion calling for a national day of
prayer on October a for the ces-
sation of war in Europe probably
is without precedent in this or
any other country. But, If so,
il is the most beautiful pre-
cedent that has ever been set in
any nation There are prayers
for peace in our prayerbooks,
and days of prayer for the
speedy termination Of wars have
been often fixed by official pro-
clamation in countries engaged
in them: but for a neutral ma
tion of more than ninety millions
of people to get down on its knees
and pray for peace in other coun-
tries will be one of the most
impressive. as we'll as one of the
most unusual, spectacles ever
presented on earth. We be-
lieve everybody in the United
States will offer up a prayer on
that day in the earnest spirit Of
altruism. which the Presidents

thing can make a path for peace
where men can see nome" we
believe unselhsh supplication
from the heart of a great coun-
try can open the door of divine

We often wonder If il has ever
occurred to some people that
editors are human. and not gift.
ed with second sight. An
editor is constantly on the hunt
for news of interest to the peo-
pie who read and pay for his
paper, and he never intention
ally omits an article of any i'm.
portance. The success of his
paper depends upon his impair
tiality in this respect. And yet
often some person conceives the
erroneous idea that the editor
has purposely left out some item
concerning them or their fam
lilies. Has il ever occurred 10
them that the editor may not
have heard of that particular
item, although he searched dill.
gently i'm his efforts 10 secure
all Of the news? There is a very
effective remedy for these iso-
lated but inadyertent omissions.
The next time you have a piece
of news concerning yourself,
or your family. or your neigh
bors, or of your community.
give il TO the editor yourself. or
phone or write il in 10 him, and
do not depend upon others 20 do
il. They may be more interest
ed in affairs on their own side
of the fence. The editor will
thank you for your thoughtful
ness in enabling him TO secure
news that will add to the value
of his paper and make il of in
terest TO all of the people, for
that is his mission in life. EX-
change.
