The Herald's Special Sermon

has ever been waged on earth. the end
Of which no one can foretell, how
great 10 the spirit Of worldliness that
is abroad! There Is the money-loving,
money-grubbing business man who,
though he may wear a liberty button
and decorate his establishment with
flags, has so little Of the milk of hu-
man kindness In his makeup that he
takes advantage of the present strait
ened situation to swell his profits un-
duly. There Is the stock gambler, to
whom the advance and retreat Of ar
mics, the dismemberment OF nations
and the fall Of Empires are only as SO
many moves in the game he plays on
the chessboard OF the market. There
are those private citizens whose love
for gain leads them to take advan-
tage OF our present congestion Of pop
ulation to force up rents, whether to
an individual who needs only a single
room or to a family who must take q
house, whatever the cost.
There is the theater-loving
crowds, who nightly Jam the play
houses, and profane even the Lords
Day In their mad desire for amuse-
ment. There are the devotees of the
dance, who, to crafty their crav-
ing for its hopping, jumping, whirl-
ing measures. would invade even
the sacred precincts OF our conse-
Grated houses of worship. And
there is the so-called exclusive So
cial circle, with its veneer, its pre-
tentions. its artifciality; with its
costly. frivolous functions, indulged
in while new-made widows and or
phans drown in tears and millions
Of war-made poor slowly die of
starvation. Amid such circles, how
can there be any preparation for
the Coming One?
Thank God a different picture
can be drawn than that upon which
we have just looked-a lovely,
beautiful, inspiring picture. There
are in our midst splendid organiza-
tions at work for the assuaging of
pain, for the relief of the faYnish-
ing. for the care of the sick, for
binding up the broken-hearted.
There are many grand people
multitudes of them-in the world--
people in whom is the spirit of Christ.
n whom the kingdom Of Christ has
been established. who go about doing
good and sounding no trumpets before
them; people who make the poor and
distressed and the sorrowful their
concern, even as Jesus did; people
who pursue their worldly vocations
and still find time for thought OF
their neighbor, as Christians should ;
people who are the stabilizers of So
ciety and pillars in the Church; jeo-
pie who are given to prayer, who
neglect not public worship or private

THE Baltimore Sun OF Tuesday pub
fishes an article in which il shows that
our country'S programme OF ship-build-
ing, which is matter OF such vital I'M
portance that ii may mean defeat or vic
tory in the great world war in which we
are engaged, is in serious danger because
OF the intemperance ard consequent ne
elect of duty and inefficiency of so many
OF the workmen. The Sun says that per-
haps so per cent ofthe workmen engaged
in shipbuilding in Baltimore and other
places are trif!ing, and while they are get
ting unusually high wages, they take two
or three days holiday aech week and so
are savinglittle or nothing. The Sun says:
drinking plays bad part in all OF
this. With unusual amounts OF money IN
their pockets and indifference to their
Jobs or their cohntry in their hearts, large
numbers of the workmen are hanging
about the saloons, soaking rum into their
systems and, as result, either staying
away from work entirely for days at
time or turning up unit 10 handle their
parts in the vast teamwork OF modern in
dustry. They not only do not play their
own parts but they weaken the efficiency
OF the whole industrial machine"
We wishto call attention TO the fact that
the Baltimore Sun has continuously op-
posed and belittled the efforts OF the
temperance people of Maryland-and
everywhere else. II has defended the
whiskey saloons that defile that city, and
las been ready champion Of the distillerS
and brewers. During the last campaign
the Sun stood for the liquor business,
which, it declared, must not be disturbed
as matter Of good public policy. Now
he who runs can see what this damnable
traffic is doing for the city, the State and
the nation.
If the Sun is honest and decent and in
dependent of the liquor interests, its duty

Shepherdstown People Should Not

Backache is often natures most frequent
signal of weakened kidneys. To cure
the pains and aches, to remove the lame
ness when it arises from weakened kid
neyS, you must reach the cause.-The
kidneys. II you have pain through the
small OF your back, kidney and bladder
disorders, headaches, oizzy spells, or
are nervous or depressed, start treating
the kidneys with tested kidney remedy.
Doan's Kidney Pills have been proved
good and are especially for weak kidneys.
Doan's have been used in kidney trouble
for over so years. Read Shepherdstown
testimony.
Mrs. Frank Carter, Princess ST., Shop

with kidney trouble. My kidneys were
irregular in action and annoying in many
ways. had a dull, steady ache, too,
through the small OF my back. AS had
oft heard of Doan's Kidney Pills, got a
supply at Hills Pharmacy. The first
box helped me and continued their use
until cured. From the results obtained in

Pills are fine remedy.

A SOMEWHAT spirited discussion is
going on at the present time as to the
course that our young men-those who
are too young for military service-shall
pursue. High wages in factories and in
various avocations are tempting them,
there is strong demand for their services
on the farm, and divers influences are
appealing TO them. There is disposition
to dispense with school or college work
in these strenuous times. and to engage
in efforts that apparently seem more
practical
We quite agree with the advice given
by President Wilson and other leading
men in our country, who very earnestly
urge that there shall be no break in edu-
cational work. They suggest that our
schools and colleges not only maintain
their standards, but increase their use
fitness by renewed activity and by giving
especial attention to such subjects as
will promote the general welfare and mt
our young men and women for greater
service.
Some one has put the matter in this
pungent sentence: "ThoSe who are in
their teens now are TO have the making
over OF the world after the war" This
being true, how extremely important that
they fit themselves for this great task by
cultural and practical studies. by increas-
ing their efficiency and by broadening
their vision. There never was time
when college work was needed more"
We suggest TO the young men and
women of this section OF West Virginia
the advantages TO be obtained at Shepherd
College State Normal School. This i'll
stitution has been literally provided for
by the State, and the opportunities offered
should be eagerly sought. Its advantages
are very real to those who will use them.
The services OF its graduates will be in
demand in many avocatonS and fields OF
usefulness. We want TO see il doing all
the good OF which il is capable, not only
because of the benefits to individuals,
but because we believe that the State
and nation will be the better for the
greater service that educated young men
and women can render in the peculiar
times that are 10 follow.
Schools like Shepherd College are a
blessing - the communities in which
they are located and to the State that
supports them. Let us get all the good
from them that we can.

THERE'S no doubt that Senator Suther-
land expressed the sentiments OF his
constituents last week when he voted for
submission ofthe prohibition amendment.
West Virginia is strong for prohibition,
notwithstanding the efforts OF the liquor
advocates TO make it appear otherwise.
Indeed, the vote in the Senate shows
that the whole country is getting sick
and tired ofthe wretched liquor business,
for only twenty votes could be mustered
by the distillers and brewers in opposition

THERE will be but scant consideration
for the slackers who have been using
their utmost efforts to evsde registration
and examination for army service. Gen.
eral Crowder announces that this class
OF men will be regarded as deserters,
and they will be liable 10 the death
penalty if they refuse 10 do their duty.
This is rather severe punishment, il must
be admitted and yet coward, in the
opinion OF many persons, should not be
allowed to cucumber the earth at this
perilous time in our history.
