audience Immensely. They do every

and do most of b. 1t better. Their
dancing and singing Is popular. 1t Is
unfortunate that shows of this kind,
the Merry Minstrel Maids and the
College Campus which came out OF
California a few seasons ago, put in
by real people not yet spoiled by the
hand of time and the hand of the

every family in town will take an in

pride in keeping their premises clean.
Let us begin right by cleaning ur

to turn over the soil and plant as

frost is out of the ground. The
children will have n long vacation

In helping this good work along by
helping to plant and keep the gar
dens free from weeds.

Our enemy has prepared for war

THE STATELY ELK.
lt Is the Most Beautiful of Our Re-
manning Wild Animals.

naming Wild Animals.
Now that the buffalo survives only
In a few preserves the elk is the most
interesting as it is the most beautiful
Of our remaining wild animals. In
this day Of Americanism it would be
a fine thing if this typical American
animal should come to be known by
his Indian name Of wapiti. The wapiti
is the largest of the red deer family
and closely resembles his smaller
brother, the European stag. The wa
pitt is not properly an elk, as the Eu-
ropean elk is more closely allied to the
American moose.
The wapiti is now numerous only in
the states of Wyoming, Idaho and
Montana, though nearly 1000 head arc
thought to remain in Colorado, and
considerable numbers are scattered
through western Canada. The Camp
fire Club Of America and other organ
i~zations and individuals are working
for its preservation. The favorite
home of the elk is the Yellowstone Ma
tional park, where he has no rifle to
fear and where cougars, coyotes and
timber wolves are kept under control.
In the park and it's vicinity are proba-
bly, $4,000 head, distributed in two
main herds.
During the summer months the elk
live high UP in the mountains, general
ly at an elevation of 5000 to 1900
feet. The grassy plateaus offer an
ideal summer range. Even on the
wooded sides Of the highest ravines
there are parklike glades where the elk
late in the afternoons come out to
feed. 1t is difficult to imagine a more
beautiful sight than is then afforded
by these stately and graceful animals.
Although their number in the park
, may sometimes reach as high as co.
600 head, it is are for visitors to see a
single specimen. Visitors are taken In
stages around a regular route arrang-
ed for viewing the natural phenomena
of that great outdoor museum.
The elk dislike to be pursued by tour
lists With cameras and keep away from
the stage routes. If visitors would
leave the highways Of the park and
seek out it's byways, either on foot or
by pack and saddle trips, they would
have a marvellous opportunity to study
the greatest exhibit which survives Of
our mountain wild life-not only the
elk, but mountain sheep, deer, beaver
and many other animals.

1t happened hat n Swiss, Henri Du-

Of the world decided that it was time,
to take this atrocity out of war. The
treaty of Geneva in 1868 for the first
time provided for the immunity OF

and the sign of that immunity was to-
be a red cross. And from that author

Music Kill. Men Young.

Painting and sculpture are conducive
to long life. Yet music kills men
young. Schubert, with all his wealth
of song, died at thirty-one; Mozart, who
danced and laughed his melodies into
being, died at thirty-dve, the same
age as Bellini; Bizet, the composer of
Carmen" died, like Purcell, at thirty
seven; Mendelssohn survived to thirty
eight; Chopin, who loved life so we'll,
had done with it at thirty-nine, while
Weber expired at the age of forty and
Schumann at forty-six. But Verdi
lived and lourished as a nonagenarian.

America Aid to Allies

BY ANDRE TARDIEU, French High Com
missioner to the United States
THE great duty of the United

TINE great duty of the United

same cause. Since you have been
in this wal you have been beset with
isolated financial, industrial and mil
itary requests by each of the powers
Of the entente. You gave them a
generous answer, but you are be-
ginning to realize that if your assist
ance should be indefinitely solicited
in the same manner your immense
resources would not be sufficient to

You arc compelled to say yes to
some, no to others. You must con-

milton or national standing. 1t first
impressed itself upon the notice of the
country by its relief work at the Johns
town flood in 1889. When the Spanish
war broke out it was still outside the
government and not organized or pre-
pared along military lines. In 1904
Miss Mabel T.. Boardman became the
head Of it. Her indefatigable work
caused congress in 1905 to give the Or
ganization q federal charter and desig-
nate it as the official relief organizations
Of the United States of America. 1t is
the only organization permitted to give.
volunteer aid to the victims Of war:
Other institutions seeking the work of,
humanitarian service in time of war
must do it. through the Red Cross.
The organization is twofold in sew
eral particulars and therefore not
quickly understood by the public. IL
is both official and private in its char
acter-that is, the government has
adopted it officially as the auxiliary
war relief service. The president Of
the United States by law is also presi--
dent of the Red Cross. The comptrol-
Ter Of the currency is it's treasurer.
Its accounts are audited by the war
department. and its annual reports are
addressed to congress.
Yet the government does not finance
the Red Cross. On occasions congress
has voted contributions of money to
it. Congress. helped to build the new
building, for instance. But the great
volume of its funds spent for relief
work is contributed by private indi-
viduals. IN times past most Of its
cash has come in the form of gifts,
less than 80 per cent of its receipts be-
ing from membership fees. But with
the Quickened interest in the Red
Cross the membership fees are becons-
ing an important source of revenue.
In time of war the Red Cross acts
as the auxiliary to the medical and
nursing services-the sanitary services.
as they are called-of-the army and
navy. 1t is a case Of the auxiliary be-
ing greater than the thing aided. Many
doubtless wonder why the army and
navy do not maintain their own hos,
pital services on an adequate scale.
Tho answer is that it has been found
to be more efficient and less costly to
give this task over to the Red Cross.

THERE is a world shortage of
l. food and famine staring ev-
cry nation in Europe in the
face. If we do not succeed in our
efforts to stimulate production and
eliminate waste here more people
will die in Europe in the next year
than have been slain on European
%battlefields during the past year.
IN OTHER WORDS, FAMINE HAS
NOW GOT THE BEST OF EUROPE,
AND IT'S UP TO AMERICA TO SAVE
IT-AND SHE CAN DO 1T.
The increase throughout the coun-
try in production of food crops has
been encouraging. One part of the
United States alone shows from 10
per cent to Is per cent increase:
while the south shows an increase
Of at least rs per cent. The south
erners have attained this increase by
planting food instead Of cotton, anc
it is indeed c%reditable because, so ]
am told, they were under the i'm
preston that they would lose money
though l believe they are mistaken
It is remarkable hat all have
"come to bat" without any legisla.
ton enabling us TO GUARANTEE
THE FARMERS A GOOD PRICE
FOR THEIR FOOD CROPS.
