REV. EDWIN WILSON,

Rev. Edwin Wilson, missionary
to Korea, sent out by the Presby-
terian board three or four years
ago, died at the residence of his
father, Mr.. Jas. S. Wilson, at
Columbus, this county, Tuesday,
Sept. Is.
The Rev. Mr.. Wilson's health
failed while he was in Ko-
rea and about two months ago he
returned to his old home at Co
lumbus, since which time his con
dition has been regarded as most
critical and he has resignedlv
awaited the end.
Deceased is survived by his
wife, who is also a missionary to
Korea and whom he married
while in that country, by his par
ents, Mr.. and Mrs. j. S. Wilson,
his brother, Dr.. Manton Wilson,
medical missionary to Korea,
and Messrs. John, Jim and Joe
Wilson and Miss Mamie Wilson,
brothers and sister, all of Colum-
bus.
Rev. Mr. Wilson was born
and reared at Columbus, is well
known throughout Hampstead
county, and he had many friends
in Washington, having been close
ly associated with the people here
up to the time of his departure
for the missionary field; he was a
bright young man of splendid
christian character, loved and re-
spected by all who knew him.
Burial occurred at IL o'clock
Wednesday morning at Colum.

A great deal of foood is de
stroyed by fire each year. OF
course the greater part of this
is insured, but insurance money
is not food and will not in itself
support life a single minute.
Money is of but little worth
when there is no food to buy,
therefore every precaution
should be used to the end that
no foodstuff or feedstuff be de-
stroved by fire, This is not an
argument against insurance.
insurance is good, but to prevent
loss is better. An ounce of pre-.
ventative is worth a pound of
cure, so it is said, and in this in
stance it applies more than at
any other time. A great deal of
foodstuff and feedstuff is de-
stroyed by water; this should be
prevented. Hundreds of thous-
ands of bushels of grain is de-
stroyed by rats; this should be
prevented just as far as possible;
all this will be needed and more.
Every precaution should be Ia.
ken to see that nothing is destroy
ed because it is needed, and
money cannot supply its place.

The military bosses of Germany
have decided that they may give
up Belgium if is necessary to
make peace, however they have
made no definite promises; they
may do this however, if they are
in the right mood when the time
comes. at least that is the way
they look at it; however, the
other side will have something
to say about the terms of peace
and perhaps Kaiser Bill will be
glad to take what he can get.

A great many do not think
that the pulpit should have any.
thing to say about the war, but
this is mistaken idea. Ministers
of the gospel are just as patriotic
as any other class of people, and
have right to be; they are brave,
true men as class, and the sol.
dier who marches off to face the
foe has right to know that his
minister and church stands back
OF him and approves what he
does.

POWER OF A WIFE

Charles M. Schwab considers that
the attitude of a mans wife has q
vast deal to do with his success in
business. In Succeeding With What
You Have" the little book he has
published, the famous steel master
pays the following tribute to Mrs
Schwab:
II can never express the wonder
full help Mrs. Schwab has been to
me from the very start. One time a
group Of men offered me large sum,
s60,000,000, believe, for half of
Bethlehem. told my wife about it
that evening. This is a big sum-
said. Half of what I have is
yours. What shall we do? If we
sell. your share, invested at PEI
cent will bring you an income of
over 100000 a month for the rest
Of your life.
1--WE wouldn't sell for five times
that, my wife said. What would l
do with the money? and what would
you do without your work.
Il have seen more men fail in bus
mess through the attitude taken by
their wives in their younger days
than from all the vices put together.
A nagging wife or one who is not in
sympathy with a mans work, who
expects impossible things of him and
is incapable of taking a general in
telligent interest in his work, is one
Of the worst handicaps he could
have. If man works with his
mind dlogged by domestic troubles
he is of no use to himself, his en-
ployer or the world at large"

EXEMPTION REGULATIONS

The regulations provide for the
following general exemptions:
Married men. with wife or chill
dren solely dependent upon them.
Men with aged parents solely de-
pendent.
Men with orphaned brothers or SIS
ters under a certain age dependent
upon them.
Workers in industries necessary
ia the maintenance of the military
organization or the maintenance Oh
the national interests"
Only men indispensable to the con-
tinuance of such industries are ex-
empted.
Officials of the Federal govern
ment; State and county officials.
Afidavits are required from claim
ants affirming that wife, parents or
children are dependent upon them.
After investigation of the evidence,
boards may grant exemption on
these grounds.
The regulations fail to specify
what industries are necessary to the
maintenance of the military organ
ization or the national interest" or
which men are indispensable to these
industries.
The entire power of decision upon
this point is left in the local and
appellate boards But the burden of
proving that he "is indispensable"
to the industry is put upon the clam
ant In most cases an affidavit from
the employer will be sufficient
A unique system of appeals from
the decisions Of the local boards has
been planned. 1t will insure, it is
confidently believed absolute fairness
and impartiality.
The actual method of drawing the
names of the first levy is withheld
from the regulations, it is under
stood, but promptly will be outlined
in subsequent proclamation.
