U. 5. Officials Try Vainly
To Hear from Halifax

Neither the War nor Navy De-
partments had received any official
information concerning the expIos-
ion at Halifax up to a late hour
last night. despite their utmost ef-
forts to get into communication
with the stricken city.
Secretary of the Navy Daniels has
ordered every naval station and
wireless station on the coast to en-
deavor to get information from
Halifax. but not even the Boston
station has been able to obtain any
word.
Wireless and telegraph have both
failed to reach. or at least to elicit
a reply. from the Canadian side of
the border.
The most serious aspect Of the
situation. in the view OF officials
here was thai a disaster OF such
as the one at Halifax
is said to be. would create a danger

dear because they have heard Thy
voice calling them to the noblest work
to which lives were ever consecrated.
Thy love, God, our Father, excels
all human love, so we leave them with
Thee. To Thee have We committed
them.
Into them Thou has breathed the
breath OF life in its largest and divin-
est sense.
In their sacrifice. offering their lives
that others may live, they are follow
ing in the Footsteps of the Son of God
Himself who died to make men free
from the power OF evil. We trust
them. o God, to Thy infinite love, and
to Thy ever watchful eye. Hold them
as in the hollow of Thy hand, for they
are doing Thy work and fulfilling the
teachings of Him who speake as
never man spake. when He taught
that greater love hath no man than
that he is willing to lay down his life
for others.

THE UPS AND DOWNS OF SUGAR

To those of US who think we are
paying a high price for sugar today,
1t may be a source of some consoIa-
ton to learn that in 1919 a London
merchant purchased in Venice,
which was then the sugar center of
the world, 100000 pounds of COM
mon brown sugar and paid 43 cents
pound for 1t. If we add to this
the freight. duty, and other incl
dental expenses, the Iaid-down cost

was at least rs cents a pound. and

values of that date with those of
To-Day 1t Is apparent that this par
