WORLDWIDE CHORUS ON
CHRISTMAS SUGGESTED

At o'clock Christmas morning
Americans, wherever they may be,
should join in singing MY Country.
'Tis of Thee" At home or on the out
camps. in the trenches. Americans
everywhefe-men, women and children
to join in a patriotic chorus which
shall sing itself around the world. That
is the suggestion advanced by the
Etude. a monthly musical journal.
No formal organization is proposed.
The plan costs nothing, the proposer
points out. and interferes with nothing.
1t is asked merely that clocks shall be
watched Christmas morning, and at
o o'clock America" shall be sung-a
solo if you are alone; in family groups.
in churches or wherever two or more
are assembled. In addition. it is pro-
posed that church bells shall be rung
of the worldwide chorus.
AS a means of advertising the plan,
the following suggestions are ad-
vanced:
First of all-Talk about it. Talk
about 1t to every one you meet. Tell
them to watch the clock on Christmas
morning and at 9 start to sing MY
Country. IT'S of Thee" Tell them that
of Christmas cheer that Is singing it
self around the world to bring together
on this Christmas the minds and hearts
of all Americans. Tell them that 1t is to
give courage ana commence 10 our
boys lover there" and joy and pride
and comfort in the souls of all who
stay at home.
Second-Write or see the editors of
your local papers and do your best to
induce them to give abundant space to
inform their readers of the Christmas
morning music festival for Americans
everywhere. Urge this with all your
heart.
Third-See the school teachers and
the locaf boards a well as all the clubs
in your neighborhood and ask them to
make announcements.
Fourth-Have a talk with your cier-
gyman. His enthusiasm will be inval-
liable Ask him to have the church bell
rung for five minutes on Christmas
morning. at 9 o'clock.
Fifth-In every letter you write,
whether to soldier at the front o. to
an acquaintance, take few lines to tell
them that you will be with them in tae
spirit of our American Christmas at 3
o'clock on Christmas morning.
Sixth-Do it yourself. Waiting for
some one else to do it means that it
may not get done. Wake up in the
morning thinking about 1t and do not
go to rest until you have done some
thing toward 1t.

TO SAVE CAR SPACE.
High Density Cotton Bale and Water
Routes to Be Used.

At a meeting here Friday Of COM
mittees representing the National
Council Of Cotton Manufacturers and
the railroads. plans were set on foot
to economic space in railroad cars
for the shipment Of cotton. The FIRST
step is to make the high density bals
the standard. A compression Of thirty
two pounds to the cubic foot. instead
of twenty-five pounds. was said to be
practical. Preferential railroad rates
are to be given the high density bale.
Another plan to relieve the railroads
is to have as much cotton ~ possible
shipped by water from southern ports
to New England. and the Federal Ship
ping Board was asked to divert coast
wise tonnage to this purpose.
