1t is prepOsterous. therefore, to
argue. as some of Mr.. Wilson's sup
porters do. that the movement to as
sure an extra sessions is one intend
ed to weaken the President-one
which can only impair the prestige
of the United States. THE Times
for instance, said yesterday: This
is TO give aid and comfort to the
German Government and to continue
the spectacle OF national impotence
and division which has gone on too
long"
II could not possibly give aid to the
German Government TO know that the
new Congress had been called in ses-
sion and had begun to make the mil
itary preparations which have been
so shamofully neglected for two
years past. Germany has done her
worst. She has insulted us. She has
challenged us to defend our rights.
No circumspection no patience, no
pose OF supporting the President
without question could influence her
now TO be a little easier on US. The
only thing that will affect the German
attitude land even that will affect it
little) will be a show of determine
ton to develop all our military force.
Nothing. in our opinion, could
please Germany more at this 1uncture
than to know that the watchful wait
ing policy Of the last three weeks
was going to continue. She already
enjoys all the fruits OF a successful
war without having to commit a
single act which our Government has
been willing TO recognize as overt

intellectually But in what? What
has the President in mind? Nobody
knows.

To the Editor Of THE EVENING
JOURNAL
Sir Our Lord in Matthew "a: Z. s.
said. that when you sec nation rise
against nation, and kingdom against
kingdom, these things arc the begin
ming Of sorrows
He further said, in verse %, that ex-
cept these days be shortened, there
would be no flesh left on the earth.
The same time is pictured by Dan
iel, Chapter 70: 1, as being a time
Of trouble such as was not since there
was 2 nation
Our Lord speaking OF this same
trouble in verses SS. 80, iikens it 20
the time of Noah. The people OF the
earth went about their daily vocat'ons
and would not believe that there was
coming a great food.
Noah believed God and made prep
arations for what God told him was
coming
God never permits any great calam-
ity TO come on the earth without Civ
ing the people an opportunity to know
OF the times and seasons and what
is coming. Likewise. in our time,
God has lifted up many noble men
that have been and are giving their
time and talents travelling the world
over calling peoples attention to the
times we live in, that IL is the time
OF the end.
1t is because mankind I'm general
has been so mistaught as to what to
expect at the time Of the end that so
few care to listen TO the words OF
the Lord. and will only do so when
they are brought to the condition de-
scribed in Pisa. 107. %.
They have been told that the time
OF the end meant the burning up OF
the earth and a time Of misery and
despair for all but little, flock. In
stead, the Bible holds out directly
contrary views
The time Of the end. from the Bible
viewpoint. simply means the end OF
the present order OF things and the
establishment OF Gods kingdom
among men. II will bring. instead Of
trouble. suffering and misery. peace
and an opportunity 10 live and enjoy
life free from all that causes sickness,
pain and death.
IF men rightly understood what
would follow this great time Of
trouble we are just entering upon.
they would have just cause 10 rejoice,
not TO see such suffering and misery.
but 10 know that this is the last OF
trouble this earth will ever see.

| wherever the "4-H Brand" label is
used, exhausting should be done.
After exhausting, the small hole in
the top Of the can must be closed I'M
mediately. To do this, apply tiux as
for camping and use little wire solder
| to close the hole Hold the solder
with the left hand near the hole and
barely touch the hot copper to 1t, so
that only a bead will drop.
i 1t now remains to sterilize the con-
tents of the sealed cans. For beans,
corn, peas and asparagus, intermittent
processing is recommended. Under
this method sterilization is carried on
for one hour for three successive days.
The cans are lowered slowly under
water that is boiling vigorously at the
time. Naturally it ceases to boil as
soon as the cans are immersed, but
will begin 20 boil again q short time
later. The time of processing is count
ed from the moment when the water
begins to boil again. and 1t must be
kept boiling constantly throughout the
entire hour. In the case Of very young
string beans and some other easily
| sterilized vegetables. the processing Is
reduced to one hour for two successive
days.
AS soon as the processing Is over,
the cans should be cooled as rapidly
as possible In order to stop cooking.
which breaks down the fruit and in
jures the flavor and color. 1t is well
to plunge the cans into very cold wa
ter. They should never be stacked
close together until they are entirely
cold.
The labelling should be done with
rather dry paste, which Is put only
on the end of the label. so that it does
not touch the tin. Paste may cause
rust and in damp climates it is some
/ times customary TO lacquer the outside
of the can before it Is labeled The

sale, must contain the net weight In

different sizes. Note, also. the vege-
tables and fruits which require enamel
lined or inside-lacquered cans.
Packing.-The federal laws require
the cans packed for sale to be filled as
full of food as is practicable for proc
/ c3Sing and to contain only enough
liquor 10 fill the spaces and cover the
contents. Weigh sufficient number
OF cans before and after filling to OBJ
tain an accurate idea of average net
weight. On account of expansion in
processing corn can be packed less
full than other vegetables. These in
StructionS do not cover the canning of
corn for market. Mark the cans with
u pensil or knife to show contents.
After the fruit or vegetable Is in the
can, brine, strip or water should be
added to within one-fOurth of an inch
Of the top and the can shaken gently
to displace all air within It. The
groove around the opening is then
cleaned and wiped and the cap slipped
on. In order to make sure that the
contents Of the can have the required
weight. the Container should be
weighed carefully before sealing.
If the weight Is satisfactory, ffux
should be applied carefully around the
groove with q small brush or cord, or
a little mop made by tying piece Of
a small stick. Great care must be
taken to see that none Of the flux
enters the can. The clean hot Gaping
steel is then. applied, the cap being
held in place with the center rod.

turned steadily until the solder flows.
Hold the rod firmly and lift the steel

ed solder evenly around the groove.
Exhaustin9 and SteriIzing.
The next step is to exhaust the air
from the cans. To do this. they should
be placed in trays "nd lowered into
boiling water to within one inch of
the top. Ordinarily three minutes is
long enough for the cans to remain in
the water, which need not be brought
again to the boiling point before the
cans are taken out. A temperature of
$50 degrees F. is frequently sufficient
for exhausting. Failure to exhaust
results in the air witch is left in the
can expanding. This causes the can
to bulge and gives the appearance CT
"swell." which will not only prevent
the sale Of that can, but prejudices Gus
toners in futu1e. The leaders in the

water the same temperature as the

inches of the tops of the jars. Have
q tight cover for the vessel to keep the
steam around the tops of the jars
which are above water. Do not count
time until the water begins to boil !;
keep it boiling steadily for the time
required. Seal the jars alright
promptly at end of processing, and
remove them from the bath, being care
full not to allow a cold draft to strike
them. In intermittent processing. raise

invert the jar to see If there Is any

Before undertaking canning In tin,
special equipment, including Gaping
steel, tipping copper, firepot for heat
