FALLACY OF RUMOR

According to the press advices yesterday, and as the Daily Alas ksa has maintained all along, even ia the face of his reported death lass week, there vaA little reason for any one to be spprehensiYe of lac Kaissrs physical condition so loaS as reports of his sickness were allowed to pass the strict censor ship and reach the outside world, for il stands to reason that had he been in any serious danger, or even had he died, not the slight sst iBtimation Of the fact would have been allowed to leak out un- less a cessation of hosGlities was assured.
 l. is extremely probable that had ths Kaissr's death actually occur ed, as was reported iA Skagway last week. but very few people with iY the German Empire would have beeH aware of it, and it is therefore sasily to be realized how much less chance the general public would have had of learning 8 secret, the diYulgence of which would have proved truly caIamitous to the cause of Germany. Reasons of sIats would indicate that no news Of his sIcknsss was given out until after he was on the high road to recovery.
 Ii is easy to believe that the principal difficulty which the En- gsrors physicians had to deal with WAS the desire of their inn ssrtous patient 10 shake off the rsstraists of the sick room and take up all Of thu usual burdens sf his crowded aud heavily taxed life. He realizes as well as anyone else possibly can how tremendous Inc problems of his government gre and how the fate Of his coun- try IS being influenced by the events st these moReptous days. His worst eRemies would Got deny his full consciousness of his own re- ,poasibilities.

 "The restaurant raider is a new type. He is of the school of economic and sOCiologic philosophy which teaches that the world owes every man living; and it is Up to the man to go in and order it and then walk out without paying for it. It is a brazen bit of business, and undoubtedly indulged by those who would rather break into jail than do an honest days work.
 It is intimated that the rockpile will be put in operation once more for the special benefit of this gen try. That is exactly the course which will put the brake on the restaurant rushing business. Make the legal price of that sort of sport good and plenty, and there soon will be an end of it.

JOINS IN CUTTING
HIGH LIVING COST
Mems Bible Glass Forms
Covenant Benevolent Asso-
citation to Aid Members in
Distress.

A unique and what appears to be a
successful effort to reduce the high cost
Of living is being made by members OF
the Covenant Presbyterian Church of
Germantown. Upon the suggestion of
their pastor the Rev. DIR. Harle w. Hath
away, to create a beneficial society, a
number of benedict members of the mems
Bible Glass formed the Covenant Benev-
olent Association for the purpose of pur-
chasing household necessities and rem
dering assistance to an unfortunate
brother member in periods of financial
distress and sickness.
Groceries and other indispensable arti-
cles of the home are being bought daily
at a wholesale price, in many instances
leaving fiattering discount in the pock-
etbooks of the members. A smile un-
doubtedly will light the countenances OF
many "benevolents" If the coal dealers
send the price of anthracite soaring up
wards with the mercury this winter. The
society has taken measures of precau-
tion for them by purchasing coal during
the summer months at n wholesale figure.
In addition to its object of economy.
the society has assisted in furnishing
clothes and shoes for the children of
needy families, loaned hospital expenses
for sick members, advanced sufficient
funds for one member to continue his
studies and paid rent in two cases when
lack of employment seriously threatened
the existence of these homes.
According to Doctor Hathaway, who
has been a prime factor in organizing
the East Germantown Improvement AS
sociation and a number OF 9th r progress
sive movements in that part of the city,
sit is a society to help the respectable
poor, 1t prevents the men, especially
the young married men, from becoming
discouraged and laying down. In other
words, the association helps those who
really want to help themselves"
The organization is sustained by a
weekly payment OF ten cents from each
member and an admission fee of 81. The
following officers guide the destiny of

dent; Frank j. Kessler, vice president;

Plight of Suffering Refugees

Task of Organization.

Appeals for financial aid to help the re-
lief work of the Salvation Army in Hol-
land. where 1t is In desperate need, owing
to the thousands of homeless refugees
who have rushed into that country from
war-ridden Belgium, are to be made
throughout the Middle East section OF
the United States by Colonel r. f. Holz.
commander of the Atlantic Coast Prov
ince, whose headquarters are at 18th and
Market streets.
Colonel Holz said today that the lead
ers in Holland have made urgent appeals
TO the army In America to assist In
their work. Every one of their home and
their emergency shelters Is overcrowded
with refugees mostly women and chill
dren. and 1t Is next to impossible to find
clothing and food for them.
Holland Salvation Army officers say the
conditions OF the army in England, France
and other European countries are so dis
tressed, as the result OF the financial
straits brought on by the war and the
enlistment of so many of the supporters
and workers, that little assistance for the
refugees can be anticipated from those
quarters.
DEPRESSION HINDERs CHARITY.
In this country Colonel Holz reports the
army work much hindered because of the
depression that has come on during the
last two months because of the war The
relief departments in Philadelphia and
other cities in the East are being called
upon by hundreds deserving employment
or financial assistance. He also says that
the applicants are of a different class
from the usual crowds found at the re-
lief headquarters, many OF them being
hard-working men who have been thrown
out OF employment by the war,
Relief funds intended for distribution
to the workers in Holland and the relief
stations in this country will be received
by Colonel Holz at his Philadelphia head
quarters, and will be forwarded to the
American headquarters I'm New York,
where the fund will be apportioned.
