Elmer Ambrose Sperry, who per
fected one of the first arc lights in
America before he was twenty years
old and who today is one of the
worlds foremost inventors of cleo
trical appliances, is one of the mem
bers of the naval advisory board. He
was one of the first to produce cleo
trical mining machinery, electrical
street railway cars, electric motor
vehicles and gasoline automobiles;
he perfected the gyroscopic compass
and was the first to produce entire
ly practical apparatus for the stabil-
ization of ships and aeroplanes. His
achievements have been recognized
by the first prize of the Aero club
of France and the medal of the
Franklin institute of Philadelphia.

So seldom does John Wanamaker
miss attendance at Bethany Presby-
terrain church, in Philadelphia, that
the congregation wondered when it
noted his absence. In the middle Of
the services it was announced that
Mr.. Wanamaker was i'll and could
not be there. No confirmation of
the report could be obtained at the
Wanamaker. residence. Servants were
able only to say that Mr.. Wanna
maker, who celebrated his seventy
eighth birthday few weeks ago, had
been spending a few days at his cot
tage at Atlantic City. Later it was
positively denied that Mr.. Wanna
maker is Ill.

Berlin, (Via wireless to Tuckerton)
Sept. 19.-Stockholm advices say So
cialist Deputy Tcheidse and seven
teen other members of the Russian
Duma were arrested in the Dumba
building in Petrograd. All railway
stations have been occupied by the
military, advices say.
Should the Stockhold reports of
trouble in Petrograd be true, it is
probable it was caused by a dissen-
sion in the Duma over the cabinets
rejection of reforms proposed by 9
majority in the chamber, and also by
the enperor's propagation of the
Duma until November.

who owns Youq


Who owns you? If you hold abso-
lutely untrammeled ownership in your
mental and physical being, you are
one of fortunate, but woetully small
minority. Mentally, most of us are
the creatures of our environment. The
beliefs communicated to us by family,
community, or nationality are chiefly
responsible for the opinions to- which
we hold. The human beings with
whom we most constantly come into
contact, mould our beliefs and our
thoughts SO that, even though we own
our mental machinery, we do not own
its products. That men rarely own
their bodies is equally true. In lands
that boast Of their civilization and
their culture, the healthy and mature
young become the Immediately con-
vertible property of the government
in war time; the older and less vigor-
GUS are permitted to possess their
bodies only triie longer. When
mans rulers SO elect, he is sold on the
hoof for butchering. Whether he is
used to serve as a molety of the price
of strip of land, or Of the cost OF
enough salve to appease the offended
dignity of those placed above him,
matters not. His services and his life
are their property land not his own.

KNOW THY COUNTRY
introductory

Know America" is slogan that
should ring out from every school
room, Office, farm and shop in this ma
ton. No man can aspire to higher
honor than to become capable citi-
zen, and no one can merit so dis
tinguished a title until he is well in
formed Of the resources, possibilities
and achievements of our country.
4 This is a commercial age and civ
1ilization is bearing its most golden
fruit in America. We are noted for
our industrial achievements as Egypt
was noted for her pyramids; Jerusa-
lem for her religion; Greece for her
art; Phoenicia for her fleets; Chaldea
for her astronomy and Rome for her
laws. Likewise we have men who will
60 down in the worlds history as pow
erful products Of their age. For, stand
ing at the source Of every gigantic
movement that sways civilization is a
great man. The greatest minds travel
in the greatest direction and the com
mercial geniuses Of this age would
have been the sculptors, poets, phil
osophers, architects, and artists Of
earlier civilizations.
AS Michael Angelo took rock and
with chisel hewed it into the image
of an angel that ever beckons man

Isl. Louis Post-Dispatch.l !

The Brooklyn Children's Court,
which is evidently not a court OF rec
ord, but is an authorized tribunal de-
signed to express law none the less,
decides that the Brooklyn Board Of
Education has right to compel the
surgical removal of physical condi-
tion that retards a school child's
mental progress. The court issued an
order directing the parents of 9-year-
old boy to have his tonsils cut out at
the earliest opportunity.
We believe that on appeal to high
constitutional principles the United
States Supreme Court would sustain
the retention of tonsils by pupil as
against school authorities that UNDER
take to decide surgical or medical
questions. The tendency Of school
authorities, not alone in Brooklyn,
but generally, to take away natural
rights and interfere with the freedom
of children without "due process" is
growing menace.
Where will it stop? May teachers,
principals of boards arbitrarily pre-
scribe medicines, diets, hygienic
measures and all matters relating to
the child's physical. being? This may
amount to the power of life and
death.
1t must be freely conceded, on the
other hand, that such supervision
might often result vastly to the child's
benefit, when its parents are ignor-
ant and its environment of low order.
Whether or no, the complete trans
ference of child's physical rearing
and care from parents to school
authorities is intolerable and unthink-
able in land of the free.
Paternalistic schools cannot directly
undertake the complete upbringing
of children, but many of the problems
of their Improvement must, in the
nature of things, be leftto the indirect
solution of general education, time
and improved public intelligence.

An American Plea For an Em-
barge by an American.
Judge Joseph P. Paferty, Associate
Judge Of the Municipal Court Of the
City Of Chicago.

Laying aside all sentimentality and
getting right down to the cold facts Of
the case--the dollars and cents facts
there is grave doubt whether an en-
barge on arms and ammunition to
Europe is not the only way out of the
war situation for the United States.
There is question whether the sale
OF guns and ammunition, with the
millions Of dollars it takes out Of
peaceful trade in the United States,
will not eventually bankrupt America.
In the first place, the manufacture
and sale by the United States Of war
munitions has caused the widest
speculation in So called "war-stocks.o
These stocks are leaping to new high
levels every day. They are inflated
far beyond their actual value. 1t is
inconceivabe that stock worth only
few dollars in peace time, like
Bethlehem steel, for instance, can
earn the inflated dividends based on a
present price of around 5000 share
for longer than the war lasts. If it
couldn't earn six per cent on its, par
value during the last three years OF
industrial expansion it certainly will
not be able to do more when the war
ends and the huge war orders stop.
That is just one thing. 1t means in
cold black and white that somebody
and that means hundreds in America
js going to lose an awful lot Of money
the minute peace is declared.
The second good reason against sell
ing arms and ammunition to Europe
is the fact that II is done on credit.
The warning nations do not and can
not pay cash for what they buy. They
have little or no security beyond a
promise to pay and when you take in
to consideration that the things they
buy are meant for destruction the
guns and bullets are meant TO be de-
stroyed and meant TO destroy human
life, human habitations, and human
hopes what guarantee has the United
States thatthe bills will be paid?
The warning nations already are
spending almost as much daily as their
monthly national incomes.
And every business man who stops
to think will understand that unless
9 miracle happens, none Of the war
ring nations win be able 70 pay it's

8, 1857, and departed this life on Mon
November 10, 1915, at erhome in Des
Arc, Mo-, age 56 years 10months and
Is days.
She was united in holy matrimony
to George w. Wallis, December 25,
1879; to this union was born nine
children, four sons and five daughters:
Mrs. Florence M. Lovelace, George
Alvin Wallis, Mrs. Bessie Lovelace,
Arthur X. Wallis, Gilbert R. Wallis,
Mrs. Louzella Strader, Mrs. Alice
Ruth Schmidt, Miss Leah Wallis,
and Leslie Wallis.
She was regenerated number of
years ago, and wholly santifed some
time later; she lived holy life and
left clear testimony to her salvation.
She was member of the Des Arc
Pentecostal Church of the Nazarene,
and loved by her church and many
other Christians.
She leaves husband, the nine
children, seventeen grandchildren, a
number Of other relatives, and a host
Of friends to mourn her departure.
Mammals gone, but not forgotten,
Never will her memory fade;
Sweetest thoughts will ever linger,
Around the grave where she was laid.
We loved her, yes, we loved her,
But Jesus loved her more;
So he has sweetly called her,
To heavens eternal shore.
Then weep not, husband and children,
AS though your all was lost;
For she stands waiting yonder,
Till you DEATHS stream shall cross.
Then In that happy city,
Where all is bright and fair;
You'll live and reign with Jesus,
And mamma over there.
Her funeral was preached at College
Hill by Rev. B. T. Flanery and she
was buried in the Des Arc Cemetery.

bills until peace has long been re-
stored.
Then, too, when the United States
get just SO much money invested in
this war on one side or another, it
automatically will become party
to the war. 1t is only question of
time, with the pro-Allies loan and the
war munitions business until the Allies
will be more than a billion dollars in
debt to the United States.
American money will be invested
and where the pocket book is, the
heart is also. The United States, no
matter how much against its will,
will have to see that the Allies win to
get IDENTITIES to Germany which will
be more vital and more pressing than
their bills with this country. They
will be made on the pain Of more war.
Can American collect in that way
under the threat of more war?
Bankers and munition makers are
fast leading US to perilous place in
the concert Of nations. II they don't
stop, it is time Congress took hand.
Congress could declare an embargo on
arms and ammunition and forbid the
loan to the Allies. They could do this
and still not discriminate against the
Allies. They could do this and still
be friends with the whole world.
The more we invest in this war, the
more we stand to lose. And looking
fairly in the face of things, it seems
more than than an even chance that
we will lose.
We should not lose more than we
have to lose. We should stop the sale
and shipment Of arms right now, be-
fore America impoverishes itself.
This leaves aside the question ol
sentimentality- the fact that Amer.
lean dollars and American ideas and
American industry have been turned
into engines Of destruction. And the
further fact, that America, the one
great neutral nation, in spite of iii
neutrality, Is engaged In the whole
sale slaughter on super wholesale
scale.
The blood is on our heads, vel
enough. And, Il webleed inno other
way, we viii bleed through our pocket
books,
