PAPER SHORTAGE DUE
TO WAR EXPERTS SAY

WASHINGTON Aug 14.-ln re-
ply to a personal inquiry by Presi-
dent Wilson regarding the paper sit
uation in the United States. Secre-
tary of Agricultural Houston has
written saying "Our experts are
inclined to believe that the present
conditions may be temporary
Il am informed that before the
war eastern markets, which are the
principal paper markets in the
country were fully supplied by Amer
lean mills and the imports from sew
eral foreign countries Prices as a
result were 50 low as to offer little
inducement to new mills in the west

Several weeks ago we published
some verses written by Tilted lover
of Echo, the substance of which was
that he could seek forgetfulness in
booze but eventually decided that he
could find another girl in the sweet
bye and bye,
Now comes the lady in the case,
beratng us right soundly for having
published verses. declaring that all
Echo understood to whom they re-
ferred and had enjoyed a laugh at
her expense. After calling us an un-
sophisticated boob, which We accept
as a compliment, she indites her
answer and says if we don't print II
we are coward afraid to finish
something we started.
The answer reads something like
this:
you say there will be another,
In the sweet bye and bye,
Let us hope you will not bother
In the sweet bye and bye,
when sou met me on the street,
l know l did look sweet,
But if you choose, you may drink
booze,
Just now or in the sweet bye anc
bye"
We apologize for omltting the sec
ond verse, but We couldn't quite
gather it. However, it is very plain
that the lady has no intention OF ever
becoming the bride or Bill"

And Raise Applies To All Class

Washington, Aug. 1S.-The truth
of Secretary Redfold's prediction that
American newspapers would be fore
ed TO raise both their subscription
and advertising rates to meet the in
creased cost OF production is being
proven much more quickly than was
anticipated From all sections OF the
country has come assurances that
prices are being raised. or would be
in ire very near future This does
not apply to any one class of paper,
but includes some Of the dailies of
the larger cities that have increased
their subscription prices from one 10
two cents or from two to three cents;
the country weekly that has boost
ed its price from 81 to 5150 and in
some cases from s1.50 to 81 a year,
and to hundreds of smaller dailies
that have increased their rates to $4
and 50 year.
Naturally only a small percentage
of the num6er Of increases would be
heard of. but the number that have
been reported would indicate that
very general raise in subscription
AID advertising prices is taking place
in the newspaper field throughout the
entire United States.

A CHRISTMAS CAROL

In the stiffness of the midnight,
In the silence of the Star,
In the slumber of the white lambs,
On the hillsides, near and far,
Came the Christ Child to his mother;
To the humble oxen's stall;
He, the Babe of Paradise, sweet:
Lord of Christmas. King of all.
Hush, let not a word be spoken
OF his sacrifice for men,
STOPPING from his world of glory,
To be woman-born; a pen
OF sweet straw to be his cradle,
He is ours, just ours, today,
Mark that mortal smile, that shining
OF the halo in the hay!
While the palm trees rustic softly.
While his lullaby, the breeze.
Croons amid the angels anthem
Which the star-lit heaven cleaves.
We will claim him ours, our treasure,
Christmas Babe. and Babe divine.
Hail, thrice hail, o mystic stranger,
Nesting in thy straw-filled shrine!
Helen Chase, in Brooklyn Eagle.

all of which we COM
memorate this day. May all Christen-
dom unite in a mighty force to stop
this ungodly European conflict, and
say as the heavenly host sang, peace
on earth, good will toward men," for
we are sad indeed, at the thought of
thy children who today are killing
each other in the terrible war that is
being waged. In pity forgive them.
Oh, Heavenly Father, bring them and
their rulers to a full realization of
the sinfulness of war-that those who
have caused it may cry to thee for
peace. May they get glimpse of the
cross in its full meaning, and profit
by the sacrifice made by thy Son for
the worlds redemption.
Our Father, may the world become
Christianized from all other religions
and PHILOSOPHERS, not merely in name,
but in the spirit of true Christian
brotherhood. Oh Lord, let US all who
fail to appreciate this great gift which
thou gavest to the world be SO con-

of their ways. May they become ad-
vocates of the Loving Master. who, as
the perfect man, said to all mankind,
Except we be converted and become
as little children, we shall not enter

Dear Father, We rejoice with thee
for the hearts that Christmas will
make glad, for the little children to
whom Christmas brings so much joy.
Also we pray thee for those bereft of
loved ones on Christmas day to whom
this season brings painful remem-
brance. Console all that mourn the
loss of loved ones. Comfort us, o
Lord, with a heavenly vision and pre-
pare US to meet them in the holy
city. Give grace to the dying, cheer
to the sick and lonely, encourage the
unfortunate and disheartened. Take
all bitterness and hatred from our
hearts and plant within US a true
brotherhood. Give food to the hun
cry and raiment to the poorly clad.
Help us all to find thee as our Brother
and Friend, our Comforter and Sa-
vior and the giver of life everlasting.
We ask it all in thy holy name.
