HOMES AWAY FROM HOME.


A significant catch-word has been
used to designate the field work at
the front OF the Young Mems Chris
tan Association. 1t was coined by
one of our boys somewhere in France,
who, finding comfort and care in the
hunts that are marked by the Red Tri-
angle, said that the soldiers were
finding homes away from home. -
The work that has been done by the
Y NJ. c. A, not only in connection
with our own soldiers, but with the
armies of France, of Russia, and Italy
is stupedous one; and the Natianl
War Work Council, with headquarters
in New York, is just about to start
an intensive campaign to raise no
less than $35, 700 with which to carry
on and expand this work up to July /,
1923.
IN the "Y'' huts, or at the fighting
line, the dugouts, the soldiers write
their letters home on stationery fur
nished free. One order of letter paper
for the camps came to $4,000. AL
ready $4,000 900 has been used in car
rying on the work. Five hundred huts
for American troops have been built
and eauipped-wsrm. cheerful centers
of friendlessness and moral force.
Similar work maintained by the Brit
ish Y. NJ. c. has won the commenda-
tions of the Pritish and French COM
manders. Sir Douglas Haig and Gen
eral Petain; nd the American work
his been highly praised by General Per
shing as a great help to the morale
of the army.
The raising of this s35,9o0,O00 by
November 10 will be great task; it
will involve sacrifice, entail self-de.
NAL. But how insignificant that is
compared with the great good that is
being done!
The present is a time of sacrifice.
Those who can't go over to hurl bull
lets at the bitter enemy, can at least
hurt hteir dollars into the fray.

OUR ALIEN BURDEN.


We trust the registration and ex-
emption boards of the country are pre-
serving the address of every alien
who, denying his citizenship, claims
exemption from war service in this
country.
Later there will be use for these
lists. and now, even, there is need for
thorough looking into some things.
These husky young aliens are fat
tening off the waes or the products
of tae United States are are walking
about in pompous Indifference, not tN
say defiance Of the governments plea
for it's loyal man-power, while the
American boy is off to the camp Of
trai7:ing or in trenches facing the en-
envy.
Every day we are reminded that
|
face to face with the governments
demands for soldiers, denied their
long claimed citizenship, that citizen
ship claimed for voting purposes and
for political preferment.
| The calls for aid to the liberty bond
fund, the Red Cross. the Y. M. c. A.
War Council and every other demand
for money and loyal self-sacrifice have
brought no responsive contribution
from thousands of these.
Pledge cards for caving and conser-
walton of food and resources show
dearth of these exempted alien names.
The roster of companies in camp
are not burdened with alien names.
Then why, in the name of reason,
are they permitted to enjoy all the
privileges of free born, self-sacrificing
patrotic American men, when they
are doing nothing, living nothing, and
assisting in no way to help make sure
our victory over the enemy.

ARE PROPRIETARY MEDICINES
FRAUDULENT

Undoubtedly. there may be some
that are, but on the other han, there
are many proprietary remedies that
are as tandard as any prescription
that any present day physician can
write, and in thousands of homes you
will find these old. reliable remedies
inevery day use with satisfactory re-
suits. Such a medicine is Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound,
which for nearly 40 years, has been
alternating the suffering of womankind,
and overcoming some of the most Sc
rious ailments of her sex. If you are
suffering from any of the ailments OF
women, just give this medicine trial
and prove it's worth. ~

After this war there will be room in
America for millions of downtrodden
but honest and patriotic believers and
helpers in democracy; but there will
not be room. standing room even, for
one single Sinking Stacker of an alien
race who when he had drawn his sus-
kenance and freedom from America
turned his back on her and denied his

THAT RUSSIAN CRISIS


The latest press news gave Petro-
grad and the provisional government
again into the hands of Kerensky.
We trust he may be able to hold both.
In fact, the appearance Of affairs in
tina ttwntable republic in name only
country is in favor of his holding
things in check at least until some as
distance from the allies in the form
OF leadership can be sent in.
1t is doubtful if a policy Of mercy
will again dominate his handling of
revolutionists. The mistake he made
at the first was in imprisoning Kor-
niloff and letting Lenine go free. A
stern, positive handling of men who
have stirred up this last revolution
would go far to putting other would
be- trouble makers in a disheartend
condition mentally-and that is half
the battle in such cases.
II begins to look like Russia may
yet do her part, and in the end come
