From Mr.. Hnburn.

LEwIsvILLE, ARK, Oct. is, 1915.
Ed. Rsgister-"A citizen army de-
pends upon employers attitude" So
reads black headline in the Shreve-
port Times OF October II. What?
Can't your Uncle Samuel have citi-
zen army without consulting the big
employers? Certainly not. Working
men are wage slaves and can't obey
the call of Uncle Sam without the
consent of their masters.
And the article goes on to say, SAD
ministration officials are confident
that even though it is proposed to en-
list only $4,000 men year in the
continentals, or total of nearly s00,-
600 in the first 6-year period, more
than that number will be attracted by
an outdoor military camp" sThe
army plans for more than one million
trained men in six years, and the navy
program of ten dread naughts and six
battle cruisers within five years, both
of which will be presented to Con-
gress with the endorsement of Presi-
dent Wilson, were the absorbing topics
of interest here to- day."
And is this the man who set aside a
day to pray for peace in Europe? But
to quote further: 1.-THE proposed army
appropriation bill will be $1S2 2,0O0,-
600, or an increase of $72,Ooo,0O0 over
last year, and that of the navy is $216,-
600, ,000-an increase of $68,0O0, 900. "
And there you are! And the "Muts'
and "Hurry Dubs" that are expected
to furnish the ''long green'' and the
"cannon fodder" will theyTbe con-
suited? Not on your tin-type.
Well, Mr.. Editor, this wasn't news
to your correspondent. Oh! No! I
read the "Little. Old Appeal to Rea-
SOM and knew several weeks ago that
the jingoes were going to make an
assault on the United States treasury
for patriotic purposes and to buy
armour plate with blow-holes in it.
Will these so-called or self-styled
patriots favor government made arms
and munitions, although much cheap
or and more honestly made? Oh mol
they are patriots for revenue only
l don't want any Of my sons to join
the navy. They might be placed be-
hind that piece of armour plate into
which workman ran a wire Is inches
that is now "somewhere' in the navy
Or the gun furnished him explode.
| Here Is part of an affidavit made
j-by a workman and read in the halls
Of Congress by Mr.. Raney, Congress
man from Illinois:
/ "I know of slide for twelve-incI
gun that was being machined when q
blow-hole was discovered. The yoke
was taken off the machine and al
night the hole was filled with meta
and the yoke was put back on the
machine, the Inspector not discover
ing the trick.n And lots more like
this; and next year we are going tc
invest one hundred forty millions
extra in this the product of American
patriots(?). F. P. HILBURN.

At the Golden Jubilee" Convention
at least 1000 delegates are expected
from u, distance, with as many more
from St Louis. The president now is
lyVilliam H. Danforth, head of the Raj
eton Purina Mills, st. Louis; vice
president, r. A. Long, the lumber
king" of Kansas City; treasurer, L..
g.. Smith, head of the American Edu-
cational Society, st. Louis.
! A new day has dawned in the Sun
day School world. While there are
many antiquated Sunday schools in
Missouri, still operated according to
the ideals of 80 years ago, as the
workers are brought into contact with
modern methods Through the more
than 600 conventions and institutes
held annually under the auspices of
the Missouri Sunday School AsEocia-
tion) more and more are the schools
becoming real schools offering real
courses in religious education.
| The last three state conventions
have reached high standard, indeed,
but the Golden Jubilee will set a
new pace. The program will be In.
tensely practical, much time being
given to separate conferences, under
expert instructors. No expense is be-
ang spared in providing the leading
specialists of America.

4 GOLDEN JUBILEE
MissoURPs FIFTiETH ANNlvER-
sARY GATHERING
Of Sunday School Workers to Be Held
!. in St. Louis Nov. 16, II and 1s.

Most fitting 1t is that the Golden
Jubilee" Convention of the Missouri
Sunday School Association should be
held in st. Louis. the city which, gave
it birth. This very first convention
was called to order by Hon. e. O.
Stanard, in the old First Methodist
Episcopal Church. South, on the cor
ner of Eighth and Washington, Oct.
"a, 1866. Hon. S. b. kellogg of st.
Louis was the first president
twenty-five counties were repre-
sented by So delegates, St. Louis by
1873, six other states by 27 and one
from India. William Reynolds and
Stephen Paxson were two of the lead
ers. One resolution expressed the
'hope that the good work Of organiza-
tion will go on throughout the entire
state until every county is thoroughly
organized and at work"
The twenty-fifth convention was
held in Sedalia in August, 1890. D. R.
Wolfe was president. There were 1870
delegates from 3S counties and ST.
Louis.

rural communities, due to statute and
ordinances that are the result of re-
formed-crazed people.
We boast of being free people,
self governed and all that, yet we
make more interference with the
liberties of the people than any other
country on earth, and we have rec
ord of more arrests and more men
who have been compelled to look
through the steel bars of jails. And
we endure it without protest. Most
of the laws under which these appal-
ling arrests are made are the fulmina-
tions of half diseased brains, men and
women crazy with the idea of making
others conform to their standards OF
morals or even living. We see legisla
ture after legislature piling on these
useless laws, and most of us have be-
come so cowardly that we are afraid
to protest-some for fear of being
called unprogressive il we do not fall
into line with each new theory of the
social reformers.
Those who by reason of balanced
brains ought to be influential at the
polls are apathetic, disgusted with the
whole "game" or merely cowardly-
and often they do not want theil
money making processes interfered
with and 80 it is that we have oui
statutes clogged with laws that do moi
represent public sentiment or opinion
laws that make criminals of thousands
of Americans and put on them the
stain of arrest and imprisonment =

Aluminium the most Abundant
Metal.

Aluminium is the most abundant OF
all the metals. In the form of its
oxide, alumina, it constitutes about 10
per cent of the earth's crust, accord

Survey. Yet until recently years it was
a curiosity there we're only few
hundred or few thousand pounds in
existence, and its value was from $14

Rev. John Adrian will Found
New Catholic Parish.
lrhe s.. Louia Glohe-pemocrat.


Archbishop Glennon announced
Sunday the appointment of Rev. John
Adrian of Arcadia, Mo-, to organize a
new Catholic parish at Jennings. Co.
incident with this is the announce
ment Of the gift Of a farm at Jennings
to Rev. P. j. Dunne's Newsboys'
Home and Protectorate, for his small
boys with agricultural tastes. :.
Father Adrian is known as the
tpriest-farmer." His "model farm"
on the grounds of the Arcadia Acad-
emy OF the Ursuline nuns in Arcadia
was carried on such scientific prin-
ciples and with such excellent results,
even in the dry seasons, that it at
tracted high commendation from
state agricultural officials. His
'smodel farmn has been written up
several times in newspapers and
periodicals.
| Father Adrian's farmers were the
workmen necessary in the academy
building for the furnace and other
winter work. In the summer they
were idle, and he turned their talents
"back to the SOIL" His corn, his
beans, his methods of renewing the
soil, all have been much noticed.
urrrr oADrr Ianp NEWpovc
A wider field for "model farmn is
given in the new farm. 1t is the gift
of Mrs. Hannah Duryea of Jennings,
who herself will reside by the side Of
the neWsboys. The tract contains
fifteen acres and lies on jennings road
and Florissant avenue, in front of the
station. Mrs. Duryea was the pos
SCISSOR of twenty five acres. She kept
ten acres and her home and gave away
fifteen acres. No house exists on the
new farm.
The first purpose in sending Father
Adrian to Jennings, the archbishop
said, is to found a new parish. Hi
second duty will be to care for the
newsboys who live on the farm. Abou
twenty five of these youths will be OF
hand before the winter is oyer. Father
Dunno does not intend to force any
boy to live on the farm. He will senC
only those who show preference foi
that kind of life, and those who wisl
to sell papers, run the printing pres
and perform other work of the cit.
will remain at Washington and Gar
risson avenues. Father Dunno jus
now has 1856 boys in the home and pro
tectorate. 1t is PRETTY we'll filed.
HOME STARTED TEN YEARS AGO.
1t will be ten years, February 6
since Father Dunno picked up the frs
newsboy, Fleming, whose portrait,
man grown, hangs on the walls of th
home. The institution grew from
small beginnings, until now its sub
stantial brick building and beautiful
little chapel are the pride Of the in
mates.
By Father Adrian's counsel, thu
boys have already plowed the farm
and planted it in rye. This is done t
enrich the soil, as they wisely tell tn
uninitiated, and they can hardly wal

Rev. H. Krankemeier of Kirkwoo
has been appointed to succeed Fathe
Adrian at Arcadia.

SEA ORDER NO BLOCKADE
Foreign Secretary Won Jagow Ex.
plains Germany's Stand.

Berlin, Feb. 10.-Gottlieb Won ia
gov, German foreign secretary, re,
ceived a press correspondent and ex-
planned the German naval measures
to be taken against hostile CONNER
cial shipping, over which, he said,
there seems to be some misapprehen.
sion abroad.
'The announcement was not a dec
laration of blockade said Won ia
cow, confirming an earlier statement
by the admiralty.
All questions as to it's validity pre-.
missed on this theory, therefore, are
excluded
England months ago declared the
whole OF the North sea a war area
German warships heretofore destroy.
ed merchant ships belonging to the
enemy only when there was every
certainty that their passengers and
crew could get away safely. But this
fOrbearance must be subordinated to
military considerations because Eng.
land, by measures inadmissable under
international law has Daralyzed neu
trail commerce with Germany in an
attempt to force upon the German
civilian population death by starva.
ton.
Hostile merchantmen have no
claim to consideration if they are
armed or offer resistance to the Ger
man forces. Since the British admir-
atty Jan. 81 instructed British ,mer-
chantmen to use neutral flags neutral
ships run the risk of being mistaken
for hostile merchant ships and OF
falling victims to attacks.
The German naval forces received
orders to use no violence against neu.
trail ships, but such Identification is
extremely difficult.
Neutral shipping can only be ur.
gently warned again to. avoid the in
dicated war zone."

RESPONSE WAS GENEROUS
Americans Have Given $500, 900 to
Aid Belgians.

New York, Feb. 1O.-The Belgium
relief fund committee announced that
its next cargo of food for noncombat-
ants of Belgium will go forward on
the steamer Great City, expected to
sail Thursday. The total cargo is
about 9,4O0 tons and cost about $780,
900. This amount represents contri-
buttons from every state in the Unit
ed States and more than $4,000 in
dividuals.
A total amount of more than $780,
600 has been subscribed for Belgian
relief, the committee said.
Forty-six ships, bearing 2SO,431 tons
of food destined for noncombatant
Belgians who are facing starvation,
have been sent from the United States
or their sailing has been arranged,
according to the weekly report of the
commission.

A thrifty farmer does not leave his
reaper or horse rake standing in the

has noticed farming machinery i'm
bedded in the snow. The farmer
who fails to care for his machinery
cannot prosper.
