KAISER ADMlRES JAPANESE
Refers to Them as Political People,
Who Gain by War.

In an article found in a copy of the
Berliner LokaI Anzelger. recently re-
ceived in London, Karl Rosner, war
correspondent who has lately been ac-
companyine the kaiser on his frequent
trips to the various fronts and thru
the Balkans to Constantinope, repre-
sents the kaiser as now combining ad-
miration OF Japan with an unshaken
belief in the yellow peril Herr
Rosner writes;
THE conversation turned to Japan.
1t is quite wonderful to see with what
absolute objectivitN and what rea-
soned historical justice avoiding all
passion without abandoning anything
Of his hostility, the kaiser sketches
the position of the Japanese in this
war With his acute vision. he under
stands and describes the clever pol
itical people which is growing while
blinded Europe is committing suicide.
He shows what a lot England has al
ready lost irreparably TO her allies"
Herr Rosner then says that the
kaiser boasted as follows Of the ia
nous picture which he painted and
distributed at the beginning OF this
century as representation OF the
yellow peril" The kaiser said:
Twenty years ago | made the
drawing Peoples of Europe, Defend
Your Holiest Possessions At that
time people made jokes about II and
laughed at me; German prophets
must not even draw. Today. however.
many people think otherwise. per-
haps. OF the jokes that they made

MAY WE KNIT ON SUNDAY?
Problem of Sabbath Observance Up
In Various Forms.

The problem of Sabbath observance
has come up in various forms in Eng
land. where it was decided by certain
bishops that no harm could come
from working in the fields OF the
Lords day. with us the extreme
stage of the question has not been
reached: but Scranton. Pa, has asked
aloud II II is right for women TO knit
on sunday for the soldiers. and also
whether knitting during church ser
vice is proper. An answer Is al
tempted by the Baltimore sun, speak
ing ethically, and assurance is gwen
that so far as knitting garments for
our soldiers on Sunday Is concerned,
even the strictest Sabbatarian might
safely include II among permissible
works Of mercy and necessity" the
sun argues the point with seriousness
even II ii does permit Itself stroke
of humor at the cid of its homily:
with all the numbcrless knitting
needles that are enlisted in the cause
there will not be enough woolen ar
ticles TO keep every soldier warm this
winter. Even with spare hours on
Sunday utilized, there IS no time to he
lost II the individual knitting facto-
ries are TO come anywhere near meet
ing the demand upon them.
"The question of knitting in church
is. we concede, more debatable. II II
is right to fight on Sunday, why
should IL not be right to do helpfui
and comforting things during church
services? 1t is not inconceiNHble that
a warm stocking Would be regarded
as far more religious up aDoNe than Il
cold prayer, and that woolen vest
for a soldier OF the Lord might be
considered In the heavenly court OF
last resort as more eloquent than
many sermons NDr do we think u
would he urged that knitting In
church would divert he minds OF the
congregation from cxhortations 70
uiety. knitting, wnen fully mastered,
becomes largely mechanical and even
beginners could still sing the hymns
ard listen devoutedly to the minister
We acknowledge that knitting IL
not per Sc a pious exercise, and that
= does not necessarily inVoNe a
peaceful frame OF mind. The French
furies who surrounded the guillotlne
during the reign of terror frequently
carried their knitting with them, and
rarely missed a stitch even during the
most exciting scenes. II would I'M
Questionahly be better TO knit In
church than like Madame Lafarse at
such a revolutionary shrine as that at
which she and others OF her kind
wprshipped during those memorable
DAYS OF blood.
However this may be decided. we
enter protest right here against one
thing: no young woman should be
permitted TO take her young man
along and make him hold the yarn
for her in church while she winds II
up in ball. That would certainly
be demoralizing 10 the preacher. and
Il would surely inspire Jealous ard
irreligious thots ia she minds OF the
girls who had no young man to hold
their yarn. We make this point now
both in the interest OF religious de-
corum and OF feminine friendship and
good feeling"
