The Battle

IT'S the silent battle inside man,
And explain it. none but drunkard can,
PITY for him, yes pity and prayer
For brother caught in this dreadful snare
In the heart of the wife is battle too,
AS at her duty the whole day through
She pravs that rum may not WIN today
And Tohn may come home with his full weeks pay.
God pity them BOTH God pity them all
Who in the clutches of strong drink fall
And fall they must in this awful way
Unless we all join in the work today
We must take hand in the battle for men,
And fight for the weak again and again.
Till the rum shops are closed in every town
And this deadly scourge of rum put down.
Mrs. R. W. Spencer.

View ofSeamen' SAct
Captain Dollar Says That Americans
Face Ruinous Competition
Under New Law

San Francisco, Aug. lS.-Shipping
men exporters and importers had a
hearing today before the federal
trade commission in the second of
the three days sitting which are be-
ing devoted to ascertaining the condi-
tions and problems which confront
the business men OF this country.
Captain Robert Dollar, president of
the Robert Dollar Steamship COM
pany, occupied the greater part of
the hearing in answering questions
concerning the effects of the new
seamen's bill.
Congress may be powerful within
the three mile limit" said Captain
Dollar, but when the members get
beyond that they don't figure. J am
not going out of business, promise

that. I'm going to do business some
how, but none of us know where we
stand-even Secretary Redheld does
not know"
Captain Dollar showed by means
of figures the competition which the
American shipping man would be
forced to face. Under the seamen's
bill the American steamer Algoa
would cost 1920 for the salary and
board of the crew per month. Under
the British emergency act the crew
OF the steamer Robert Dollar could
be maintained for $13OS, he said,
while the Asama Maru, under the jap
anese flag could be run for $777.
These vessels are practically of the
same horsepower.
Captain Dollar said all shipowners
were in favor of the humanitarian as
poets of the bill, but, he asked, where
does the sailor get off when all the
ships have been legislated out of
business

There were in all forty-four persons
at the Methodist Sunday School pic
mic last Thursday. The number was
most apparent at meal time. After
the exercise of eating, the tug of war
ranked next in getting a general par
ticipation. Mrs. Joseph Hickman's
side won in this and was given their
innings at baseball. In this they
were likewise victorious. However,
their opponents account for this by
calling attention to the fact that the
ball used was a tennis ball and held
out just long enough to permit the

The relations between Italy and

and there are indications that a rup.
ture is approaching. The foreign min.
lister, Baron Sonnino, has made the
most vigorous representations to the
Turkish ambassador concerning the
matters in dispute, particularly Tur

It is understood that an appeal has
been made to Washington through
the American embassy to induce Tur
key to carry out her promise to Hen

at Constantinople, that Italians De

this connection great interest has
been aroused by report that Mr.

Men Of Affair.""
at P|attsbuTg

II is inevitable that the. dramatic
and picturesque side of the camp of
the citizen soldiery at Piattsburg
should attract all observers since at
first glance the spectacle Of men of
affairs. from allSfelds of official and
business and professional life, en-
gagged in the humble duties of camp
life, is so marked in its contrasts as
to appeal even to the most unthink-
ing. At the same time, there is
something else on exhibition at
Plattsburg besides men used to lux
ury undergoing rough labor and unac.
customed hardships, and that is the
enthusiastic spirit of service and
Of sacrifice that inspires all the new
recruits.
This is the vital thing mat is the
real object lesson to the country. And
that men of the stamp of Mayor
Mitchell in New York and of George
Wharton Pepper in Philadelphia feel
called upon to submit themselves to
the routine. and discipline Of army
life Is a human document sort OF ar.
gument for preparedness that Is
worth many a page of statistics or
polemics. Moreover, the daily depic-
ton of their doings, of their tasks as
soldier boys, of their quickness to
learn, must bring home to every one
the value of continuous training OF
this sort, not only for the men of af-
fairs, who have the time to take off
/ for such rendezvous, but for those
, who are not their own masters as to
| work or time and for the training
in the militia special arrangements
must be made.
| Just as England under an appalling
menace is facing CONSUMPTION, so we
at peace in talking about our mill
tary weaknesses must realize that to
promote any kind of military train
ing above the school age we need an
entirely new Encouragement of bust
ness and social relationship II we are
to get results. At present in many
states employers are so hostile to
leaves of absence on account of ser
vice I'm the militia that young man
anxious to play his part in this mat
ter of training Is virtually blacklist
ed. Attempts by Legislation and so
cial pressure to obviate this situation
have not been uniformly successful
II, therefore, We ought and should
have and are to have a very generous
extension of the militia system
brought up to date, then there viii
have to be a new understanding oil
the part Of employers as to the par
they will play in this question of pre-
paredness.
Indeed, II there is anything in dis
cipline, physical or mental, prope
course of training ought to add to thu
general efficiency of any employee
Hence service for the state should b.
direct benefit to the employer a
well as to the militiamen employed
who are not free as are the men o
affairs at Plattsburg TO go vacation
