To the editor, his helpers, his
household, his readers, to the suffer-
ing, and especially to the faithful
friends-and they are not few-who
gave in countless ways the strength
of their love, not to me only, when [
was brought low, but to others also,
wish Merry Christmas and Happy
New Year, with a love thought in
every word. Only you who has lived
through winter and spring and sum-
mer shut in, and many times no one
to talk to, and couldn't talk anyhow;
nor walk, and have felt your very soul
dry up with the solitude and weari-
ness Of it all, can understand how
much | want to express that is not
easily put into characters. I thank
you everywhere for your gentle words,
your lovely dees, and most Of all for
the flowers you did not keep to put
upon my coffin lid. I wish the fullest
of Christmas joys to come to all, and
through the changeful days of the
coming year the One Great Friend may
have you in His keeping. He waits to
walk with alb. D. S.

There is work, plenty of it,
for people who are looking for
work instead of a life of ease, or
a soft snap.
If work is slack in one line
there is always a demand for
labor in other lines. Some one
is always wanting men, more

ends over the scarcity of help.

Put on the
Soft Pedal.

It is time for the American lay
man to put on the soft pedal. and
let the president do the talking.
There is grave concern lest the
United States become involved
in the European war.
But it must not be, If mortal
man and honorable means can
prevent.
England seems determined to
starve out Germany, even to the
depriving of women and children
of the necessary food to sustain
life.
This may be in accordance
with the rules of warfare, but it
is not in accord with the laws OF
humanity. Helpless women and
children!
Germany, in retaliation, says
merchant ships must not enter
English waters, and warns neu-
trail countries that their vessels
are in danger of being sunk by
Teutonic submarines. Germany,
apparently, would also starve
England, including its innocent
women and children!
This, too, may be considered a
justiflable act of war, but the
element of humanity is lacking,
quite dead.
The United States is a neutral
country, favoring neither side to
the controversy, and with food in
plenty for the hungry in all
lands.
British merchant ships are US
ing the American flag in an eff
fort to escape the hostile craft
of the enemy.
The kaiser instructs his SUBJ
marine commanders to sink Brit
ish merchant vessels approach
ing the English coast, and warns
America that its ships of COM
merce are in danger of being des-
troyed.
If either country, in pursuance
of its announced policy, destroys
an American ship sailing under
the American flag, then that act
becomes one of war against the
United States, or of piracy on the
high seas.
And therein lies the extreme
gravity of the situation.
President Wilson and his adj
visers are straining every nerve
in an effort to avoid the danger
of clash, and the people OF this
country can best assist them BY
RETAINING from partisan discus
sion of the war, and by retain.
ing their native GOODNESS and
calmness in the face of danger.
Hot headed denunciations and
vitriolic discussions will only
serve to aggravate an already
delicate situation.
Let Europe fight its battles,
Our business is to attend strictly
to our own affairs, and to furnish
food for the starving millions
when the inevitable time is at
hand.
The president is speaking soft
ly, but to the point, and he
should not be embarrassed by the
flames of racial strife.
Put on the soft pedal, brother,
the soft pedal.
