Just because some of US go out and
rake and burn and bury is no reason
for us to feel safe. If the next yard
IS IN bad shape we are in danger until
we can convince our neighbors that
cleaning-up is good economy.
There is a great deal to do and NOW
is the time to do 1t. These places that
are a menace to the community will
be reported to the city authorities I'M

to make their premises ready to pass
any criticism and we hope everyone
Will concur in this spirit.

Light Candle Behind the Flag Christ
mas Eve

A Red Cross Christmas Eve is being
planned by that organization for use
by millions of its members throughout
the United States. In every home and
place Of business there is wanted q
Red Cross Service Flag during Christ
mas week Each member Is being
urged to light a candle behind the

Each Red Cross Service Flag distri-
buted will have instructions printed

JERUSALEM CAPTURED BY BRIT

Possession Of Holy City Works End

Have Had Control for Over 1900
Years Except for Two Brief
TnfnTIudol

Ul hWAG UA "hV
Have Had Control for Over 1900
Years Except for Two Brief
InterludeS.
London, Dec. 1O.-Andrew Bonar
Law, Chancellor of the Exchequer,
announced in the House of Commons
today that Jerusalem, after being
surrounded on all sides by British
troops, had surrendered.
The capture of Jerusalem by the
British forces marks the end, with
two brief interludes, of more than
1900 years possession Of the seat of
the Christian religion by the Mo-
hammedans. For 673 years the Holy
City has been in undisputed owner
ship of the Turks, the last Christian
ruler of Jerusalem being the German
Emperor Frederick II, whose short
lived domination lasted from 1929 to
1914.
Apart from its connection with the
campaign being waged against Tur-
key by the British IN Mesopotamia,
the fall Of Jerusalem marks the def
mite collapse of the long protracted
efforts Of the Turk: to capture the
Suez Canal and invade Egypt.
Almost the first move made by
Turkey after her entrance into the
war was a campaign against Egypt
across the great desert of the Sinai
Peninsula. In November, 1914, a
Turkish army, variousIy estimated at
from $4,000 to 100000 men, marched
on the Suez Canal and succeeded in
reaching within striking distance of
the great artificial waterway at sew
eral points.
For several months bitter fighting
took place, the canal being defended
by an Anglo-Egyptian army aided by
Australians and New Zealanders and
French and British forces.
For the greater part Of 1915 con-
flicting reports of the situation were
received from the belligerents, but in
December of that year definite infOr-
nation showed that the Turks had
been driven back as far as Ell Arish,
about IS miles east Of the canal.
1ull occurred then which lasted for
six months, and in June, 1916, the
Turks again advanced as far as Ka-
itch, about Is miles east of the canal.
Here they we're decisively defeated,
losing more than 5000 prisoners and
a great quantity OF equipment. An
other period followed in which the
situation was greatly confused
through the vagueness and contradic-
tory character of the official state
ments, but in December, 1916, the
British stormed Ell Arish and a few
days later severely defeated the
Turks at Maghdabah, about 60 miles
to the south on the same front. Two
weeks later the invaders had been
driven out of Egypt and the British
forces crossed the border into Pales-
time

SCORES KILLED IN TRAIN CRASH
Skty-seven Dead and Forty to Fifty
Persons Hurt.

Shepherdsville, KY, December 20
Sixty-seven known dead and As to SO
persons injured, some of them ser
iously, was the toll taken when Louis
vile and Nashville passenger train
No. z, from Cincinnati to New Orleans,
early tonight crashed into the rear OF
Bardstown, Louisville and Spring
field accommodation train 500 yards
south of the station here.
The accommodation train had just
left the station after making stop
when the faster train, which makes
no stop here, came in sight moving
at high rate of speed. Efforts to
bring it to a halt were futile and the
heavy locomotive with the weight OF
a heavy steel train behind it crashed
into the rear of the accommodation
with a terrific impact. The two
wooden passenger coaches and bagg-
age car making up the smaller train
were splintered.
Virtually every person aboard the
accommodation train, both crew and
passengers, were either killed or bad
ly injured None Of the passengers
aboard the fast train were killed,
though a number were injured.

RED CROSS CHRISTMAS

The people of the United States are
approaching the Christmas holidays
under conditions this country never
has seen before; and, moreover, it is
probable that this year we shall not
experience our most sorrowful Christ
mas while this world war RACES.
With the thought of the nation
dwelling largely on the infinite
suffering abroad, on the certainty that
our own flesh and blood will soon be
enduring it's full share of that suffer
ing, and on the absence from home OF
hundreds of thousands Of the dear
ones, Christmas, 1917, will be a war
Christmas.
Into this somber outlook the Red
Cross is seeking to bring something of
cheer. In a campaign lasting from
December 16 till Christmas Eve it will
ask for 100000 new members. 1t
will urge these 100000 to become
Red Cross Christmas" recruits, that
they may enable the Red Cross to
Tighten the burden our Army and Navy
and those of our allies are called upon
to bear.
This cooperation with the Red
Cross is real service of which we may
all be proud. And that this service,
when rendered by one, may be known
to his neighbor, the Red Cross will
urge each old and each new member
to display at his home a Red Cross
service flag ON which each red cross
stands for a member.
The hundreds Of thousands of these
flags already being shown by old
members will swell into millions be-
fore Christmas, each flag and each
little cross bearing testimony that
some ones Christmas has been made
happier for himself or herself, happier
for our own boys and happier for the
soldiers OF our allies.
Let us all help to make this Red
Cross Christmas-Which is another
way of saying: Let us make it the
happiest Christmas possible with the
war clouds hanging low.

Meeting of Parent-Teachers

The Parent-Teacher Association OF
Westminster met in the Assembly hail
of the High School building ON Ihurs-
day afternoon, December IL. me
meeting was called to order Dy the
president, Mrs. ]. Pearre Wantz, and
led in prayer by Rev. VIM. II. Hetrlck.
The minutes of the last meeting were
read and approved, after which the
girls of the High. School rendered sew
eral choruses in their usual excellent
style. The president then called LOT
the reports of the several commit
tees. MRS. D. F. Shipley, chairman
of the visiting committee, reported
that several cases had been FOUND IN
which children were unable TO attend
school because of a lack OF su1hclenL
clothing, and that in each case relle1
had been given. She also stated tnat
efforts are being made to collect ma
terial with which to continue this KIND
of relief work Mrs. John ID. Belt,
chairman of the committee on mem
bership, reported a large enrolment
within the last month. The total
membership is now 1O9. A request
from the program committee for an
allowance to meet the expenses of
providing entertainment for the meet
ings was met by passing an order au-
thOriZing the committee to spend an
amount not to exceed S. for that pur-
| pose.
Mrs. Geo. Mather read a very inter-
esting and instructive paper entitled,
How to dress children for school, -
pointing out the desires and inclina-
tions in the matter Of dress at differ
ent stages of school life, and empha-
sizing the Importance of careful and
proper guidance by parents and teach
ers.
| The most interesting feature at the
afternoons program was a talk by
Mrs. Stoddard, chairman of the Ma
tional Association for Child Welfare
on the subject of the conservation OF
clothing She showed how many use
full articles of dress for children may
be made from old garments which are
often discarded as worn out and use
| less.
The president of the Association
called attention to the need of screens
to be used at the sides of the stage in
the Assembly Hall at the High School
building. 1t was finally decided tC
have the frames made by the boys il
the Manual Training Department ant
to have them covered at the expense
of the Association.
The meeting adjourned to meet OF
February |. Special efforts will bt
made to have a good program, and i
is hoped that large number of par
ents will be present.

SAVINGS STAMPS

The government scheme to raise
money " war savings stamps and
thrift cards ought to stop some money
that now goes to waste. 1t will not
merely buy uniforms for good many
soldier boys, but some people will &C
ouire the thrift habit who formerly
could not save a dollar.
There are many persons having
fairly good incomes who can never
keen money on hand for regular bank
deposits. When the roll i'm the bu-
reau drawer gets up to $40 or $2O
they feel rich. Then something comes
to their mind that they want. They
unroll their wad and their savings
melt away. They console themselves
with the idea that next quarter they
will do better. Fly that time new ana
unforeseen uses for money have turn
ed up.
These people might easily spare
dollar a week though they could never
save $50 a year in a lump. A small
SIM each week means simply less for
shows or tobacco or candy or otner
sunerfuities and they don't feel it.
Saving is a matter of habit and If
not begun early in life it comes hard.
The boy who becomes used to sailing
away a dime or a quarter weekly out
Of his little earnings, doesn't feel COM
Portable when he fails to do it. Inc
sense of a. little capital growing all
the time gives him more satisfaction
than the pleasures the money "oulo
give him. Then when he grows up ne
does it easily and as earnings IN
crease his savings increase also.
The large success the banks nave
had with their Christmas and vacation
clubs illustrates how people can &C
ouire the habit. Now the government
proposes to make it easier than ever.
You have not got to hoard up a large
roll of money, but simply buy one or
more % cent savings stamps with the
loose change in your pocket and put
il ON Uncle Sans thrift card.
