Secretary Baker Explains AdminiS-

WINNING VICTORIES DAILY
Tells Correspondents Presence OF
Militia Has Restored

Washinton, Aug. 2l-The Nation

baker 5, declared the administrators

letters from many parts of the coun-

were being held in service after the
emergency for which they were call
ed out apparently had passed
In general the complaints alleg ID
that border service was entailing
loss financially on militiamen and
hardship on their families.
BY III presence on the border, be
wrote to one, the guard is winning
bloodless victories daily" He de-
clared that American residents al ns

a peace and security they could not

Referring to the elaborate and ex-
tensive training the militiamen are
receiving under supervision of regu-

pressed the opinion that it would fit

as a supporting arm, or

RELIGION MADE
MORE DOMI Mt
Speaker Declares Church is Losing
Hold on Society
THEORY OF VIM. ELLIS
Editor Afield OF the COntnent Known
as "The Religious Rambler
(By Mamie Bays)

Montreal, N. c., Aug. 21.-Thl
theory of William r. Ellis, editor
afiald of The Continent and so wei
! known also as The Religious Ran.
bier. is that no line exists between
foreign missions and home missions
and that no line should exist. Dr.
Ellis made this address on home mis-
sions, which he delivered at Mortreat
the summer assembly of the South
ern Presbyterian Church. The south
he SAID, is the new front of home
missions, and here the church is fac
ing the negro problem, and the prob
lem of the mountain folk as these
problems should be faced and the
great Ii oblem yet to be solved is tie
social problem, in the solving of
which leadership is needed. Tn :
church, he declared, is loosing hold
on society, Notwithstanding the iact
that the paradox is true that religion
is constantly growing stronger, and
the roL edy for the church to reply
is to l. axe religion dominant.
In support of his declaration thar
the church is loosing it's hold on So
ciety, Or. Ellis stated that when the
news regarding sports is cut in tie
daily papers, the editors hear from
the crowd that wants the news about
sports, and he argues that the same
should be true of the protest of
church people when the religious
news OF the papers is reduced. He de
clared that when a paper gives 4
gibe at religion, the church people
should make the editor hear from
them in protest and when paper
says anything about religion, he
should hear from them in approval.
Because church people fail to follow
this practice, he said, is the reason
the daily press cuts religious news
so frequently, while it gives fall
space to sporting news.
AS practical illustration of his
DR.. Ellis called attention
to the fact that only recently one of
the leading daily papers in North
Carolina has discontinued the publ
cation of its page of general religi-
Gus news which it formerly carried
in its Sunday issue.

SAYS GOVERNMENT SHO.LD
REGULATE ALL WAGES

If a set of conditions have arisen
which oblige the government to reg
ulate rates, then it is equally obliged.
on the basis of economic analysis, TO
regualte wages accordingly. Having
taken on estep, it must take the 9th
er. The logic of events is forcing
this delimma on the government. 1t
is the public which sooner or later
must lay for the increased expenses
of transportation.-Pr j. Laurence
Laughlin, University of Chicago.

AUCTION GIRLS OFF AT
ONE DOLLAR A POUND
Amazing Tale of White Slavers' 10lt
in Vie eProbe-SOme are Partly
Others Completely DESCRIBED


New York.-One nollar a pount is
the price actually paid in several in
stances for immature young girls aHc
toned off here by white slavers to
proprietors of disorderly resorts, As
sistant District Attorney Smith, pros
ecuting the campaign against the vice
trust, declared
1--WE learned today that in one in
stance agents for two disorderly
houses got into a dispute over the
value of a girl who had been put up
for sale" said the sasistant district
attorney. "They finally agreed upon
a price of dollar a pound After
that it became a common practice
to weight all girls and announce their
weight"
From men and women now under
arrest and awting trial Simth has
obtained the most amazing confess
sions of the workings of the white
SdiNe gang
Not onl did they Systematically set
about to obtain school girls for re.
sorts, but in East Twenty-second st.
thye maintained a house, where young
girls, sometimes partly and cometimes
completely disrobed, wer sold to the
highes; bidder
Information regarding the white
slave auction was obtained after the
arrest of Dubitz Jubier, alias David
Parish, and his wife, Kate Parish, in
the Twenty street house, The
district attorneys office is investigat
ing reports that other similar places
were maintained. 1t was recalled to
day that only a few months ago q
minister's daughter was kidnapped
and auctioned off nude before a gane
in an Italian dance hall.

HIGHEST WAGES. LOWEST
RATES, SAYS JAS. HILL

American railroads today pay the
highest wages in the world. out of
the lowest rates in the world, after
having set down to capital account
the lowest capitalization per mile of
all great countries in the world No
other occupation and no other EN-
ployer of labor in the country can
match this record. Jas. j. Hill.

Law OF LOVE

We learn to stand and walk, to
speak and read. No one teaches us
to love; this belong to us as our life.
As the heavenly bodies attract, in
cline to one another and are held to-
gether hy the eternal law Of grayita-
tion, so heavenly souls lean to and
attract one another, and are bound
together by the eternal law of love.
A flower cannot blossom without sun
shine and a man cannot live without
love- Muller.

ASTRAY

A New York man took run not
long ago in Connecticut, to a town
where he had lived as boy. He ac-
costed a venerable man of some eigh
ty years, who proved to be the very
person to answer certain inquirys
conee. ing the place. Finally the
New Yorker said Il suppose yju
have always lived around here?"
NO" said the old man,"I was bo- n
two good miles from here"

TRUE CHARITY

Charity is the mother of good deeds,
not bare words or mere ways Of
speaking to men, but taking care of
them, and putting forth of itself by
relieving poverty, lending aid to the
sick, reseuing from dangers, stand
ing by our fellow-creatures in diff
culties, weeping with them that weep,
and even rejoicing with them that re-

Millions Of acres Of land now under
water in the Northwest will. within
the earlier years to come. be re
deemed for farming uses by means
Of irrigating and drainage plans. All
the states and provinces bordering on
the Great Lakes have laws favorfne
this addition to land holdings. The
province OF Manitoba has. under a
new law, organized its first irrigation
district covering $4,000 acres. Thus
the irrigated area spreads farther
and farther north, and the unused wa
ters are brought in to make agricul'
ture immeasurably more certain than
under the olden plan Of waiting on the
weather to supply the needed mots
ture.

NECESSITY OF WORK.

The necessity of work IL we would

the world goes. We are all recon.

dition. Resentful as we may be be-
cause it is so. and weary as some
times we are Of the grind and the
sweat, there IL another truth re-.
specting work which is Of stupendous
import to humanity. There are far
more people who take to work natur-
ally and with avidity than there are
instructive idlers and constitutional
loafers. 1t isn't at all true. for ex-
ample. that the grand army of work
ers, as they march to their duties of
4 morning. do SO with hanging heads
and downcast mien. II it 3 of your
lot to be out betimes, SO that you can
observe and make note, you will dis
cover that there is a vast deal OF light
heartedness. confidence and buoy

riage Of the men and women you meet
on their way to work They don't
