AS TO EARLY RISING.
Won't Promote Morning Gardening, But
Gives Hour Ia Afternoon.

New York Times; There is some
thing in the suggestion made by one of
our correspondents that to put an

would have, among other advantages.
a favorable effect upon the vacant lot
and backyard gardening which is to be
done by those who heed advice.
AT first thought the relation between
the two is not very clear. or at least
is not a necessary one. Obviously the
time for afternoon or early evening
work gained by the gardeners by stop.
ping their ordinary work an hour soon.
er than has been their wont in summer
would be lost from the early morning.
II their ordinary work were to begin
that much sooner This reasoning is ia.
iacious, however, for It ignores the
next TO universal dIsinciination Of hu.
man beings-a disinclination. by the
way, which has a sound physiological
basis--for doing work before breakfast
or for getting up much longer before
that meal than is required to dress for
It.

ly insomniacs, usually-threu. h all the
ages tried to persuade their fellows
that they missed transcendent Joys by
not assisting at the daily appearances
of the sun; uselessly they have declared
those matutinal hours to be the best
or the twenty-four. Such claims have
not been denied, but the exhortations
have not been needed or the possibili.
ties Of before breakfast much utilized
except under the sternest Of compul.
sion. Hence the gardens-to-be would be
much more likely TO profit from an ad.
ditional hour of afternoon daylight than
from the early rising which, theoreti.
cally, would benefit them Just as much.
Of course, the advancing of the clocks

FOUGHT TO UPHOLD
HONOR OF NATION
with One Exception Our Wars Have
Been for Humanity.

Boston Globe; There are two kinds
of warfare-one for selfish interests,
the other for rights that benefit ali
mankind, and If not defended, win be
lost.
1t is to the honor of the United
States that, with one exception, our
warlike enterprises have been under
taken to vindicate some principle os
abstract justice, the triumph Of which
would ultimately benefit all mankind.
That note OF idealism sounded clear.
~ In President Wilson's call to arms.
1t echoed back to Concord bridge, 10
the rafting sides of the frigate Con-
stitution, to Gettysburg and to the lib,
Grafton of Cuba.
The material grievances In our War
or Independence were mere pin pricks.
ny the year 1770 the tea tax was down
to three pence a pound. A perusal of
that terrific recital OF wrongs which
young Thomas jefferson penned in the
Declaration Of independence shows
that what ranked in the Colonial
bosom was the curtailment Of popular
liberties.
Again, in 1912, the United States
went to war against Britain's impress.
ment Of American seamen and the
seizure of American ships. The issue
was clean cut on international law
then, as 1t is now against Germany.
Great Britain stood for the old, worn.
out doctrine of the arbitrary restric.
ton Of commerce, using her powerful
navy as the instrument.
The blot on our war record is the
Mexican conquest of 1886. That was
the least defensible of all wars-a war
of territorial aggression. When the
lighting stopped i'm 1S4S we possessed
California, Utah, Arizona and New
Mexico, paying Mexico $4,000, 900 and
assuming 100000 Indebtedness due
Mexico by American citizens.
The whole war had been really due
to plot Of the slave oligarchy to form
new slave states and thus increase
their power in congress.
In the Civil war our democracy was
true to itself II would never have
been fought but to preserve the union.
All cynical Europe, bigoted to aristo.

to see a democratic government fail.
How supremely II was our testing time
