LAST THURSDAY

Ia looking back over the busy
ami anxious Year now closing it is
natural to urge thankfulne>S for
food and shelter and safety. for
these first necessities of life
which We have today in greater
measure than any other nation on
earth. But these are not the es-
>ential>. The peculiar fortune
of the United States still consists
in the dominance here of certain
principles of justice and freedom.
W" have our full share of bisotry
and tyranny and greed. of the
Selfishne>s tina: se1is t" rule
others unjuStly. and of the envy
that lu>t> In pull others down:
but these evils have not been
erected into governing principles
of our community life. There
are rulers of other lands, with
public opinion to back them. who
hold that some races must be kept
under that certain countries are
natural enemies and must be
crushed to guarantee" the flu
ture of their own. and so they re-
enact the ages-old tradgedy Of
strife and cruelty. The United
States has better working creed
than that-a fl it'll the world is
wide enough for all men. This
faith is not always proved by our
deeds. for the daily record is mar
red by the carelessness that free
dom sometimes brings. by the
schemes and compromises of po-
litical cowardice. by the short
sighted wrecking haste Of strong
men absorbed in our changing mo
dern life. But in the long run the
planet from which we take our
course is the peaceful star of hu-
manity. and it is for this guiding
vision. above all else. that we
Americans have cause to have
kept Thanksgiving Day.

THE ENTRANCE HALL.
Make II Suit Not Visitors, but the DC.
cupants Of the Home.

cupantS OF the Home.
Is anything new to be said about the
entrance hall? The smallest room in
most houses, it is usually given in the
plans an amount Of attention that
might seem out Of all proportion to the
rest of the house. And yet the ordi-
nary entrance. whether it be a mere
vestfbule, a spacious hall of the colo.
NAL style or. as in our present day
fashions, part of the living room set
on by an archway, is quite unsatisfac-
tory. 1t Is unsatisfactory for this rea-
son-that the entrance way is designed
and decorated from the standpoint of
the impression it makes Oh visitors,
whereas the impression we should seek
is not that made upon guests, but upon
ourselves. the occupants of the house.
100 often we give the entrance Sc.
we're treatment that impresses the stu.
dent of beauty or that amazes the less
discriminating visitor by the other ex-
IRENE of lavish display. But how does
either of these two types of entrance
affect those who come into the house
many times every day. the good man
and his good wife and their children?
Is it room that by its suggestion of
rest and repose tempts one after
hard days work at the office to drop
into the first easy chair that comes
along. or does it irritate the nerves and
Keep one going, restless and uneasy,
wandering from the entrance to the
living room and from the living room
to the study and thence to the attic by
way of the basement?-Good Health.

THE COMMANDERS AND De.
TRACTORS OF the SECRE.
TARY OF the TREASURY

w Ould the particular commend
ers of the secretary of the treasu-
~ make an enormous crowd ,
New York Times.
Duluth Herald: They would
indeed. dear Times, make a very
large crowd. The crowd is large
for the same reason the Times
sees fit to sneer-because as sec
rotary of the treasury Mr.. Nc
Adoo has welded his power for
the benefit of few who would
plumber the many in a gentlemen
sort of way.
Under Mr.. McAdoo banks have
been required to pay interest on
government deposits instead of
getting them for nothing. Wire
pulling banks have been checked.
The treasury department has
ceased to be bank of the big
Wall Street financial ring. Money
has been made a public servant
where it had been a master.
What Mr.. McAdoo has done
has given occasion for such sne-
ers as that from the New York
Times. 1t also gives occasion
for an enormous crowd Of COM
members.
If Mr.. McAdoo looked to organ
lied money for his popularity. he
would look in vain. Fortunatel.
he need not look there. There
is plenty Of it otherwhere, and it
is a sort that counts far more
these days than popularity in the
ranks of those who conceive of the
public as a great milch COW, and
of government as willing mixer
into the pail Of Privilege.

that an enactment was finally carried
defining and controlling the offense.
In 1886 a public department was es-
tablished to collect the fines enforced
by this law. The officials Of this de-
partment, of whom one was appointed
in every parish, were allowed Is. Cd.

to the bishop for the benefit of the de-

TRUCKING SUBMARINES.
Russs by Which Vessels May Escape
Their Torpedo Attacks.

uu0if orPeoo Attacks.
1t fs the surprise attack which in
nearly every case enables submarine
to torpedo q hostile ship. There are
several maneuvers by means of which
ship can trick submarine. Several
vessels have diverted torpedoes by
swinging round their stern until it
points in the direction Of the underseu
craft. In this way the wash Of the
propellers has DETECTED the torpedo
from its course and it has sped harm
lessly past its mark. Another success
full ruse is to stoke up the furnaces of
ship chased by submarine, and
thick. black smoke belches from its
tunnels and envelops the vessel in a
protective shroud. In this way the SUBJ
marine gunners are confused and can
not perceive the correct direction in
which to send their torpedo.
A speedy ship which follows an err
rat1c, zlgzag course presents poor
mark to submarine. When torpedo
Is dispatched against fast travelling
vessel it is directed to a point Just
ahead Of its mark, and the craft lit
orally runs into the death dealing de-
vice. This obviously cannot happen,
however, If ship is swinging rapidly
rom side to side and alternately point
ing the narrow expanse of its bows or
stern to the undersea marksmen.
A submarine seldom attacks q vessel
II 1t Is not alone, for 1t can only attack
one at time, and while it is launching
torpedo at its first mark the second
vessel has an excellent opportunity of
ramming the submarine, which can be
located BY its telltale periscope.-Pear-
sons Weekly.
