THE SPIRIT OF SACRIFICE
(HENRY p. DAVISON.1

1t has been my fortune to visit
England and France in the fall of
each OF the three years Of the war,
and to Observe not only the military
situation but the situation in their
respective governments. and, TO some
degree, to note progressively the
results of the war upon the "ooplc
You may read Of it ell, you may be
told of it all, but you can fori no
appreciation of it without yourself
observing it. Perhaps the most strik-
ing change in the people is the
change in their ideas of values-the
value of life is 30 different, the at
titude of each toward the other is so
different. Their ideals become cx-
alted. 1t seems as if their affection
and regard for mankind had immca-
surably increased. They seem to be
without malice or design, envy or
jealously, without sordid ambition
to be living on higher and better
plane. Even with their terrible sorrow
and suffering they seem to be
stronger and surer and more co: tent
to meet whatever may be given them
to meet.
What must happen to us that we
may be awakened and purified?
wish for no i'll, but / hope and pray
that whatever may be needed to
arouse us to n sense of sacrifice and
cleanse us from our selfishness will
come to us. If it does not, We shall
be i'll prepared to live and meet our
responsibilities with rpencct to other
people so cleanscd and strengthened.
| firmly believe that through the
Red Cross we can not onlv render
q service to our allies-to those who
are to-day fighting for us-but we
can bring forcefully to our own Deo-
pie a sense, both Of their obligation
and Of their opportunity. And I am
optimistic enough to believe that the
men and women of this country will,
in not far distant dav, rejoice in
sacrifice--in real sacrifice-and de-
mand that the Red Cross shall carry
to the peoples then living the heart
felt appreciation of what they have
done for us, and express such appre-
citation by every possible aid

CONQUEST.

White women in the houses,
And strange men in the treet,
Muddy horses in the fields,
Trampling down the wheat.
And so they took the village
When men were all away,
Women screamed and soldiers laughed
1t was glorious day!
But over OIL the hillside
Up which the fottpath led,
There was town they could not take
The village of the dead.

PROGRESS TOWARD PROHIBI
TION.

l. Nineteen years ago, in the war
with Spain the colonel of regiment
was allowed to decide whether intoxi-
eating liquors should be sold in the
camp canteen.
2. Several years ago the United
States government prohibited the sale
of liquor in the camp cantees.
3. About three years ago liquor was
driven from the ships Of the navy.
d. A few months ago congress made it
a criminal offense to sell Intoxicating
liquor to any man wearing the uniform
of the United States.
B. An order has been issued prohibi-
ting salooas near the army camps.
Can any one fail to note the rising
tide against the saloon? 1t will not
ebb until the nation is saloonless for
ever more. 4

a RED CROSS IN THE LIONS
DEN.

Throughout the width ard depth
OF this great land of ours, Red Cross
quarters have been established in
MANY odd places. but n We rliing base
in lion house of menagorie would
seem to be unique.
The park officers of the New York
Geological Society, having been asked
by the Bronx Chapter of the Red
Cross to aid, set to wo. k and pro-
vlded accommodations in the Lion
House at the Geological Park. Here,
surrounded by the denizcns of The
jungle, from fifteen to thirty men,
bers of the Red Cross toll each day,
working TO meet the nccssant de-.
mand for bandages and comforts.
and the whir of the busy sewing ma
chimes mingles strangely with the
call of the wild.

GONE SKY HIGH AND STILL
GOING.

Old corn is $2.45 bushel here, and
bacon 33 cents pound. A visitor from
Lynchburg says that large grocery
and feed dealer told him that corn
was selling at $3.50 bushcl in the
Hill City. The man who has corn or
meat to sell is ain the fight" alrig, t,
but the folks who have to buy are
getting it in the neck"
New corn is expected to start here
at about S1.50 in the field There is
only one thing to do, the prices for
labor must be increased, or the wage
earners must stop eating meat or at
least reduce the quantity they hive
been using.

APPLE CROP NOT A FAILURE.

The estimate apple crop for 1917
~ given as III million bushels. The
December estimate 1916, was 2O2
million bushels.
The average for the years 1911,
1915, was 2ld million bushels. IL is
seen that the 1917 crop is short
several million bushels, but is still
ample for all domestic purposes.
The farmers and orchardists nre
saving. the crop more economically.
And then, the distillers get none of
the crop now permitting n saving of
several million bushels for domestic
use instead of booze.
