Ban Knitting In Church

Springfield, ILL.,, Nov. 12.-Knit-
ting socks for: soldiers may be a
splendid example of patriotism. but
it is entirely ont of place when mixed
with religion.
This is thes:universa1 opinion > Of
Springfield and other Illinois pastors,
when the suggestion of the Rev Nc
Elveen, pastor of the First. .Congre-
gational Church, of Evanston, ILL.,,
that the fair sex bring their knitting
with them to church On Sunday was
made. 1t brought flood of protests
in Peoria as well as here. The min
listers declared to do so would take
the mind from the devotional servi-
ces, lessening the interest in religion
and causing an irreparable injury to
true patriotism, as defined by the
Church.

in addition 1000 pounds of delicious

day.
The work has been done under the
direction and encouragement OF Mrs.
E. Stanley Toadvine, chairman of the

Hoover Food Conservation Cards, in
which all the Eastern Shore counties
have made excellent records. Mrs.
Toadvine's reports to the Defense
Council are said to have been among
the best received at the headquarters
in Baltimore.

An Unnecessary Precaution.

They are telling the story in Wash
ington of a young man who did not
want to go to war. He went to a den
fist and had several teeth extracted,
having heard that a man without teeth
is of little or no use around an army.
Then he went before the draft board.
"Tm sorry" said the medical officer,
after giving him one look, you're not
eligible for service; you have fiat
feet"

War Work at Navy Yards

Washington, ID. c., Nov. 13-Near-
ly $1,000 appointments were made to
the forces of mechanics, helpers, and
laborers at navy yards and other ma
val establishments during the fiscal
year ended June 80. 1917, and since
that date appointments have been
made in increased proportion.
An appropriation of $7,500.000 is
now being expended in the enlarge
ment of the great naval gun factory
at Washington, which, when COM
pleted, will furnish employment for
1000 or more skilled mechanics, in
addition to the 5000 already at
work in the plant. In this mammoth
factory, one of the best equipped and
most interesting in the world, are
built the great guns for our war yes
sells, which carry to every country
the message of Americas ability to
protect herself and to safeguard the
rights of her citizens wherever they
may be.
The new naval aircraft factory at
Philadelphia, which will be complet-
ed this month, will also employ
about 5000 men.
The workers who man such plants
a personal pride in turning out pro-
ducts that will stand the test Of con-
flict with the arms of other nations.
A considerable part of the building
of war vessels is also done in Gov
eminent yards.
The United States Civil Service
Commission, which is charged with
the task of re- hitting the ranks OF
this great army, through it's
Widespread organ 2ation is furnish
ing the men as they are needed. In
certain trades, particularly those con-
nected with shIpbuilding. there is
usually a shortage. Sailmakers, cop
persmiths, shipfitters, anglesmiths,
blacksmiths, and machinists are es-
pecially needed. Women to operate
power sewing machines are also in
great demand. The representatives
of the Civil Service Commission at
the post offices in all cities are the
official recruiting agents for this, as
well as other branches of the civil
service. The commission urges COM
petent mechanics to offer their SER
vices to the Government at this time
of great need.
They've been in the trenches two
hours and they think the wars
cinch, said an American sergeant
peeved by the task of trying to make
over boys in the front line keep
from taking dangerous squints over
No Mans Land. Anyhow, it's the
irrepressible American spirit on the
job!
Nothing makes boy so weak as
strong cigar.
After a man gets to about so old
most of the romance has eyaporated
out of his system.
Our idea of loafer is man who
rests before he gets tired.
One opportunity is enough for the
man who knows how to take advant-
age of it.
Too often the wife's yearning ca
pacity is larger than the husbands
earning capacity.
If he has large family to support
a man can't afford to have any other
extravagant habits.
In after years a spinster may have
cause to congratulate herself On the
number of times she didn't get mar
ried.
