Try to Explain the Cali"

Perhaps men to whom this feeling
comes expose themselves recklessly p"
/ have suggested. The answer is al
ways to the contrary. The warned man
tries his best to evade his fate He
hangs in the rear in a charge, and he
stays in the bombproof when the other
men are in the trench, and guards him
self sedulously 1t is of no avail. Nor
is there any similarity between the
warned men. In seven quoted cases
one was a Breton peasant. by presump-
ton superstitious, one a small store
keeper of Paris, one a student for the
priesthood. one a man-of VIGOROUSLY
evil life, the fifth was a school teacher,
the sixth a table waiter and the sew
enth a scion of one of the Oldest houses
in France.
Perhaps some society Of psychical
research might evolve the rule which
these warnings follow. 1t would not
be difficult to secure hundreds-per-
haps thousands-of authenticated cases
in which the warning was followed by
death. 1t is certain that it is an ar
ticle of faith with most soldiers that
men are warned of the fate to come.
They like to believe such things.
II know l am all right for a while
yet they say. Il have not had my
call"

THE men do not blench when the

ing this subject. One notices in them
a forced gayety. perhaps. They laugh
little more loudly and make more
jokes and slap their friends on the
back little harder. That is the only
sign they make. All soldiers are fatal

time one says to himself:
When 1T comes. it comes
Then he dismisses the thought of
death from his mind. We are all op-
timists. too No one ever believes-un-
til he gets his call-that he will be the
one to die. He knows when he goes
forward into an attack that certain
number Of men will die, but he believes
in his luck. No matter how many are
killed. he thinks he will come out safe"
/ have talked with officers and sur
geons and private soldiers, and all
agree that perhaps one man in fifty
is warned from some unseen world
that his day is ended. They insist that
the premonitions are invariably borne
out. but that is as ii may be. Many
man, perhaps, has a premonition that
comes to nothing. Then he forgets it,

WHY is cHRIsTMAs7

LAVE we forgotten the meaning of the
i Il great anniversary which we are pre-.
pairing to celebrate next Monday?
a lawyer might say this question In
impertnent, irrelevant and immaterial.
But is it7
II the world really understood the
meaning of Christmas Il would not now
be torn by n devastating war. Nations
would not be talking about crushing one
another. Statesmen would be moved by
higher motives than hate and desire
to wreak vengeance, and the Little Child
Of Bethlehem would have long since led
men to that perfect peace which pas
sion cannot break.
If tho world really understood the
meaning OF Christmas, men and women
would not be wondering as they buy gifts
for their friends whether they are to get
anything in return that Will compensate
them for the expense
A little child soon discovers that there
is moro pleasure In planning gifts for
others than In receiving them. But as
the shades of the prison house descend
and shut Off its vision OF that paradise
whence It came it loses too soon it's
heavenly spirit.
Have we forgotten that Christmas is
the anniversary of the salvation Of tho
world? The Great Gift of all time came
to us on the first Christmas. It was the
promise that good will overcome evil, that
righteousness must triumph and that
selfishness defeats its own ends. We ad-
nit that this may be beautiful theory,
but insist by our acts that 1t does not
work out In practice, in spite of the
fact that wherevE the theory has been
applied IL has vlndicated itself.
What the world needs today is a new
baptism OF the Christmas spirit The
spiritual forces are potent II we will let
them work. The man who remembers
the unworthy poor because every one else
seems to forget them has the right feel.
ing. There are some such. The man
who sends a message of fellowship and
good cheer to his enemy on the day
when all should be friends has been
stirred by the example of the Christ
There are n few like this. The woman
who reaches out her hand to an errlng
sister with that tender compassion born
OF an understanding heart is kin to Him
who wrote in the sand to let the Scribes
and Pharisees have time to recall that
there is none without sin. There ought
to be more feminine tenderness
The story of the Nativity is read In
many home on Christmas morning. If
the story of Christ's teachings were also
read, the Christmas spirit might receive
such an impetus that 1t would last
through the whole year.

HOW TO GET AN ARMY

TO the EditOrNot tho Evening Ledger,
Slr-Before the congressional committee
General Scott said that enlisting up to the
full strength seems 10 be impossible and
they want only 125,000, and then he says
thew have 10 go into the labor market and
compete with high prices. Apparently he
has in mind the men that are getting Sc
and SO per day digging subways. sweeping
streets and doing other classes OF manual
labor In other words, day laborers.
Now right there is the trouble our poor
little army Is fast breeding a silly shoulder
strap aristocrRcy, where officer is spelled
with n great big o and privates are called
common soldiers that could be detailed TO
do houseworlk for the aristocracy and con-
seauently should be barred from any
chance of ever getting shoulder straps
IL sge have one-year enlistment and
with real men for officers and sergeants
that are paid as much as leutenants. so
that they will stay In the army, real soldiers
can be made in one year.
Cut out such jokes as Plattsburg, where
they talk OF turning out officers In night
with any old material that cones along
with apparently the only quallhC alton de-
manded that they have money enough to
pay their expenses.
Turn out ten times as many from West
Point but not at ten times the cost, and
take your pick and not every one that
saueezes through DO you think the stand
ard oil or Mr.. Sehwab would take the
whole batch2 Not on your life They would
want their pick.
Then let Uncle Sam do the same.
A FIGHTING ARMY.
