In the welfare OF babykind should

DIVIDED RESPONSIBILITY.

The president has again .sscrted
himself In two things-he has under
taken to put an end to the row be.
tween Goethnls and the shipping board
and he will endeavor To XIII of the
provision making food control board
instead Of one-man direction. The
shipping row Is unfortunate as II has
not only raised up sentiment against
man whom the people trusted On &c
count of the fact that he had hereto
fore proven himself amply able to pur-
sue any undertaking to a successful
conclusion, and provoked his -osig-
nation, but IL has caused unfOrgivable
delay In carrying out the war lars of
the United States AT n time when ev-
cry day was valuable and every loss Of
time calamity. Gocthals has shown
himself worthy Of trust in great under
tallings. lie may make mistakes, as
every man does occasionally. but it
stands to reason that "A plan that has
one trusted and able man at he helm
IS worth many good plans whose eff
fcctiyencss Is dissipated by clash of
counsels and division OF responsibility.
In pursuance of democratic ideals. a
board appears better than "A dictator,

not be too thoroly emphasized that we

The food wrangle is much on the
ame principle. A multitude of Coun-
sci may produce wisdom, but that
method Of producing wisdom always
proves slow and deliberate and oftimes
ineffective. We are In position now
where deliberation must give way to
promptitude. The nation has suffered
loss of millions already in the pock-
ctbooks OF its citizens thru the delay
In putting the food law into operation.
We can afford to have little less de-
liberation and "a little more speed. We
can even afford to risk the evil effects

a normal natural philanthropy foI
women that 1t seems there should not

Mothers are urged TO bring then
children, and to all women liz pointed

little, poor sick babies, who cannot

IMPOSSIBLE CHOICE.


I'm glad we're not allowed 10 choose
For 1t would set my brain awhirl
And nights Of slumbcr should lose
Deciding tween boy and girl.
II God should put It up to me
To pick u babe TO come and stay
And bid me state what IL should be
I'd never know just what to say.
A. times I'd wish another boy,
For boys are made for fathers chums,
And there's great and lasting JOY
In every little boy that comes
And yet there's something mighty sweet
In dimpled checks and golden rurls
j wouldn't count the home complete
without my pair OF little girls.
At times I'd want little lad
To race with me and romp about
To cheer me when I'm tired and sad
Yet when think Of all the bliss
Wrapped up within those girls Of mine.
And feel upon my cheek their Hiss.
vow baby girl Is fine.
Just mix EN- up is what I'd say,
Send boys and girls along TO me,
But II things cannot 10 that way,
All hoys all girls then let 1t bc.
With children let my home be best
The little ones my soul rejoice
Nor could | say just which is best

TO GET $4,000 HERE
Huge Fund for Spiritual and
Recreative Work With
Enlisted Catholics.

Tulsa knights of Columbus will
raise not less than $4,000 within the
next ten days as their contribution
TO the 100000 war-work fund
which the war board of the national
council of knights of Columbus has
voted to raise for recreative and reli-
gious work among Catholics enlisted
in the army and navy of the United
States.
Movement Endorsed.
"Forty-one per cent of the army
and 60 per cent of the navy OF the
United States is made up of Catho.
lies" said George Wakefield, grand
knight of the local lodge, "and y
with the particular aim of looking
after the material and spiritual wei

all the concentration camps, and these
buildings will be used for all socia

astic endorsement of the three Ameri-
can cardinals.
To Welcome All.
While every creed and all the creed
less will at all times be welcomed to
the havens which will be erected by
the order, they will be primarily for
the benefit of the Catholic young man
and will form "A very appreciable part
of that moral bulwark which the
United States government is now try
ing to throw around its soldiers while
they are removed from so many OF
the restraining influences Of civiliZa-
ton.
There are about 4O9, 900 members OF
the Knights OF Columbus in the
United States and the original plan
was to pro rate the sl,000,000 fund
among the members thruout the ma
tion, but the work is beginning to as
sumo such large proportions that the
plan has been extended to include as
from knights. but from all members
of the Catholic church as we'll.
I'VE have already received promises
of large contributions from number
OF Tulsa Catholics" said Mr. Wake
field, "and the order is now urging
that all Catholics send In their con-
tributions without personal solicita-
ton"
There are four hundred Knights OF
Columbus in Tulsa.
