WAR REWARD
: H.s.DsaaaoGY h.D.rlssooa (

The European war stands out so
prominently in the minds of most
people that it is difficult for anybody
but the most optimistic of us to see
in it any good whatsoever. And yet
there has never been time in the
history of the world when the teach
ings of the "health cranks" have
been given such unqualified endorse
ment
If there were ever a time when
nations were justified in letting
present needs loom large to the ex-
clusion of all thought for the future,
it would seem to be in these days
Of overwhelming tragedy. What
more natural than that every thought
and every energy should be bent to
Strengthening the war forces in the
field?
Instead from the very beginning
of war, wise men abroad have been
preparing to meet the horrible peace
conditions that will follow imme-
diately on the close Of the war and
the most significant thing about
these preparations is that they are
not merely industrial. The human
element. the health of the worker,
present and future, is being studied
and considered as it was never con-
sidered in times of peace.
Thus in conservative English cir
cles, the Fairgrounds, medical in
spection Of school children, warm
lunches, etc. are no longer scoffed
at and regarded as the proposals OF
the 'faddists." Instead, they have
been taken over by the most 'prac-
tical' of sound headed leaders who
have been compelled to see, as they
wouldn't see before, that "the war
strength of the nation rests upon
the health of the people" These
men have begged for the counsel of
"sentimentalists" who couldn't have
secured a hearing previously even
though they had "hired a hall"
The helpless mother across the
ocean who was required to stand by
and see her child die of a prevent
able disease is being revenged to-
day. She has heard statesmen cry
for want of lives that might have
been saved to serve their country,
lives lost in infancy through lack
of health knowledge and health pro-
tective measures. She has seen them
figuring how the children OF today
and tomorrow may be saved for
their mothers and the nation.
A future generation may judge
that the lesson has been worth the
p1ice-horrible as the price has been.
We in America shall learn also.
Waste of life cannot go on as it
has gone. Every thinking American
should offer up a prayer that we
may learn how to live and let live
without paying the war price OF in
struction.

ADVICE AS TO PLANTING GROVES
Fresh Grown Slips and Seed Much
Surer Than Transplanted
Trees

The State Bank of LadySmith, IN
offering premiums on groves and
shade and ornamental trees, advises
that these groves should be at the
north and west, if possible, Of the
farm buildings, as that is the
direction from which the cold and
drifting storms come and protection
the most needed. By experience we
have learned that the cheapest way
|of getting this protection is the
best way, and affords better chance
Of growing other crops during the
first years of the grove.
Kindly imagine a grove on a farm
where the buildings face the south,
said grove to be twenty rods long
and contain nine rows of the tree
kind, beginning on the south side a
few rods back of the buildings, two
rows of cotton wood, then two rows
of naples, then two rows of box
elder, then three rows Of willows
nine rows in all, eight feet apart
and the plants eight feet apart in
the row. You will have then about
$50, all told, of the tree kind and
one-half acre Of ground. There is
good reason for placing the large
trees on the south side of the
grove.
The cotton woods and willows
planted should be fresh grown slips,
the naples and box elders, seed can
be had from any Of the older trees
both slips and seed Of this kind
are almost sure to grow, much surer
than a transplanted tree. TWO seeds
of maple and box elder should be
planted in the hill and if both grow
one should be removed later
The shade and ornamental trees
can be obtained in the same way,
a part of which could be, If you
wish, walnut, by planting the wal
nut where you wish the tree to
grow, put a stake to mark the place
and see that they are always cared
for Come in and talk the matter
over with us, it is far more import
ant than you think it is.

MORE TROOPS ARRIVE

Camp Sheridan, Montgomery, Oeto 5 Der 11.-(S (Special0-Ci own, the first Ohio infantry, rolled into Camp Sheridan on special trains Thursday morning, bringing more than 1900 men under the command of Col. r. W. Galbraith, Jr. It. followed the Third Ohio infantry. which arrived late Wednesday night with about HOO men commanded by Col. R. l. Hubler. The coming of the two regiments placed more than $500 additional men ill camp and ran the total well about the 10000 mark.
 The First infantry made the trip with only one unusual incident. A ne- gro porter decided to sell a soldier an order of liquor. He was discovered. Rather than face the United States court on a charge of selling liquor to a man in uniform he jumped from the window as the train moved 30 or more miles an hour. He was not seen again and no one knows whether or not he was killed.
 With the exception of Ohio troops, which are on guard duty at Chilli cothe, the national training camp, the movement of Ohio soldiers to Camp sheridan has been completed The next important movement is expected to be 7750 selectmen from Chillicothe

 ENJOYS CONCERT

String quartet, Op. IS, No. (Beetho- ven); allegro andante con moto, allegro, presto.
 Cello solos, (a) Andante from minor conerto (Golterman; (b) vito-spanisn dance (PopPer)
 Violin solos, (a) Poem CFibich- Kube- lik); (b) Serenade negre (MacMiilen); .tc) Tambourin Chinois (Kreisler)
 String quartet D minor (Shubert, al- legro, andante con moto, (Death and the Maiden) scherzo, presto.
 Such was the programme presented by the Cadek string quartet of Chatta- nooga under the auspices of the Music Study club at Cable hall last night, and a very ambitious programme it was. The audience was as usual, large and appreciatve.
 Two chamber works in their entirety, to say nothing of the solo groups, would have been over the heads of many music lovers, unless they had been educated to listen intelligently. But the audience ~on this occasion was rapt from beginning to end.
 The personnel of the quartet embraced
  violin; Lester Cohen, second violin; Lil- Han Cadek, viola, and Dorothy Phillips. cello.
 The organization is new, as quartets go. The members had been Increasing together only year but they played with distinction, better than some cham Der quartets of several years standing.
 For those members of the Music Study club who knew nothing of the excellence 1F 1n x,t cff tcf, fhAr agreeable surprise indeed. An absence or the amateur player was remarked; then, too the intonation was perfect. Not one of the quartet ever lost in the pitch, something that cannot always be said of quartets of established reputa- tion.
 The ensemble was singularly smooth and the reading was marked by clarity and a full understanding of the old classic school.
 The Death and the Maiden" move ment of the Schubert number was played with fine emotion. and nothing on the programme, perhaps, was more thoroughly enjoyed. The scherzo re- yealed brilliant technique and temper ament on the part of the players, but when they came to the presto it might have been well had it been taken not quite so fast.
 The celloist was in the best of form and with her large, sympathetic tone and her natural lowing easily capti- vated the audience For an encore she gave soulful excerpt from a suite by Pepper.
 Mr. Cadek, the leader, was enthu- siastically received as a soloist. He has tone of rare singing quality and his playing was brilliant and convinc- ing. He was forced to respond to two encores, playing for the first "Chanson Louis XII ct Pavane" (Couperin- Kreisler) and for the second he simply repeated the Poem" marked (a) on the programme.
 The concert was truly delightful and after it was over many persons were heard to express the hope that the CadelSs would not be long in making a reappearance here.

 Committeeman from both branches of the Presbyterian church were present and work in all religious branches that could be connected with the army was discussed. Inasmuch as the United States government will not allow any particular sect or denomination to pro- mcte it's influence in the encampments, the work will have to be done through the Y M. c. A., nonsectarian organi- zation. About 50 committeeman are on this new war work and many were pres ert, among them being, Dr. Albert Sid- ney Johnson, Dr. A. B. Currey of Mem- phis, Dr. Thornton Whaling of Columbia, C.; Dr. Arthur Jones, and many others.
