Of human life and liberty on the seas

in the world will be needed at home
after it's task abroad is done. While
our fellow-creatures in the United
States are hunted and tortured as If
they were wild beasts, government can
scarcely be called democratic. So long
as colored people are prescribed, dis
eliminated against, segregated and
despised, ill-will and ant1pathy will

THE ONLY SOLUTION.

Recently at the Church of England
Congress at Southampton, Sir Sidney
olivier, who was governor of Jamaica
from 1907 to the end of 1912, put for
ward the claim that no solution of the
American color question was possible
except by resolute disclaimer of the
color line and the race differention
theory.
Sir Sidney Olivier certainly knows
what he is talking about. In the
Island OF Jamaica, where he was GOV.
ernor for five years, there are about
100000 colored people and only 10000
whites and yet there is absolutely no
friction between the races. Jamaica
Is a British colony and the govern.
ment Is Just. Colored men enjoy ev.
cry civil and political right which
white men have and there is no color
line.
Among other things Sir Sidney said:
MY study and comparison of con.
d1t1ons In the United States and the
West 1ndies," he said, has brought
me to that conclusion. American and
colonial politicians and public men
are not Exeter Hall abolitionists nor
evangelical Christian missionaries. I
do not expect them to adopt the meth
DDS of missionaries, nor do 1 sympa-
thize with all their programmes. But
1t cannot be ignored that it happened
that the faiths of the men who laid
the foundations for the peaceful de.
velopment of the mixed community in
Jamaica were democratic and human.

war and rebellion. II statesmen and

WAR SUMMARY.

About the middle of last week the
Allies made forward movement on
wide front between Lens and Loos. At
the same time a successful attack was
made in Belgium. All counter attacks
by the Germans were swept back with
heavy losses. August 18th, American
aviators took part in an air raid which
dropped II tons of bombs on German
military establishments and encamp-
ments. Aug. 10Th, the Allies advanced
their lines in Flanders along front of 6
miles and on Aug. Goth the French cap
tured and held first line of trenches
near Verdun, on front of II miles Dur
ing the week there have been several
fierce encounters in the so-called Italian
sector in which the Italians have been
successful. The Allies have taken about
20, 900 prisoners. AS we 60 to press fierce
battles are raging in all of the above
mentioned sectors.

Prof. James T. Sleeper of Beloit, Wis,
who has been in the training camp at
Fort Sheridan, was recently commission
ed second lieutenant of the quartermasters
department. Mrs. Sleeper, formerly Miss
Gladys Pitcher of Belfast, is spending
the summer at Capt. Hanoum in Thet-
ford, Vt, in charge of the music. The
camp is under the direction of Mrs. Char
lotte Sleeper Farnsworth, wife of Prof.
Charles Farnsworth of Columbia College.
In a personal note home Mrs. Sleeper
speaks of the camp girls giving Greek
comedy with dances.
Mrs. Sleeper composed the music for the
choruses and also for the motifs applic-
a BILE to each character in the play, to be
played behind the scenes by flute, as
they enter. The play was given out of
doors August 10th. In writing the music
Mrs. Sleeper resorted to the village
church for the sake of quiet and it was a
peculiar coincidence that her husband
also went to this church six years ago
when he composed the music for the
Thetford Pageant given that year.

EDO YOUR BIT, GENTLEMEN.

A few days ago the public was inform
ed that there were 5000, 600 pounds of
dressed poultry in the cold storage plants
in the city of Boston. A newspaper arti-
Gle which was evidently inspired, urged
consumers to eat poultry instead of beef
and pork, the object being to save the
latter meats for the Army and Navy and
for export to the Allies. If the President
and Mr.. Hoover who now are the duly
and legally constituted autocrats of the
dining room, kitchen, lunch counter and
cracker barrel, can find any way to compel
the holders of this poultry to sell the
same at fair and reasonable price, they
may reasonably expect that eager GUS
tom ers will be in the market

TWO LITTLE JOKERS.

vides that ''any person who wilfully
boards any necessities shall upon convic-
ton thereof be fined not exceeding s5,-
600 or be imprisoned for not more than
two years, or both" The two little
jokers, mot exceeding" and mot more
than" have been very well known in the
State of Maine for very long time. In
fact they have been the star comedians
in legal vaudeville until they have be-
come as stale as Punch and Judy. Their
play is now running in Washington and
we are informed that Mr.. Mol Pros is
still member of the company. Presl-
dent Wilson cannot prevent boarding by
the use of Sec. 6. Such an attempt

lady who endeavored to sweep back the
tides of the Atlantic with 80 cent
broom.

A BIG JOB FOR THE PRESIDENT

The regular army ration has been stand
ardized. It is practically the same in
England, France and the United States.
a memorandum gives US the amount of
1he various food stuffs which are allowed
for a days ration for one man. Using
this as a basis we can easily ascertain
how much of any given article will be
daily required for our army. We shall
have, when our drafted men are in train
ing camps, about 100000 men in the
ranks, and in the Red Cross and other
units which with the army, make up the
total number to be fed, clothed and equip
ped. In order to show what is required
70 feed this army we give the amount of
a few of the principal articles which will
help to make up the daily rations of the
limited States troops of 1917. Each day
will REQUIRE 1921 barrels of flour, 10000
bushels of potatoes, about an ounce of
coffee per man, amounting to 80, 400
hounds. beans 2,133 bushels, beef 1,200,-
900 pounds and bacon 180,00 pounds.
While feeding this army seems to be
xtunendous task it is insignificant when
COMPARED with the task of feeding our
400 900. 900 non-com batants. eve must
feed ourselves first and then supply the
needs of our allies" said the President
not long ago. Since then he has de-
znanded that he alone must be considered
as we" and Congress yielded to his de-
nand. The war in Europe is our war,
INIT the war against extortion and high
nrices is now Mr.. Wilson's war. He has
opened the battle vigorously and we be-
,ieve he will fight stubbornly for victory.
After reading the food bill we can see
now he may be able to control the price
of coal and to force down prices on food
for the army and navy. But we cannot
discover in the bill any paragraph which
in the slightest degree can alleviate the
burden of high prices of food which has
been forced upon us, the people. Sec. II
tof the food bill is weak attempt to con-
troll the prices of few food staples but
this section is like the old negro's mule.
