SUNDAY CLOSING.

tiShenandoah Sentinel Post.
Remember the Sabbath Day to Keep
| it Holy is the admonition Of the
| scripture. The question arises in this
day of the twentieth century, how must
we conduct ourselves and the bust
| ness affairs and our special affairs to
comply with the above commandment?
Who shall Judge as to whether or not
the Sabbath day Is being kept holy
and where shall the line be drawn
Does the church member keep 1t holy
| who attends church Sunday. morning
and Sunday evening and spends the
day with his family riding in mod
ern touring car thru the country ad-
miring the beauties Of nature and OF
natures God7 Or in order to comply
with that commandment should the
| automobile be left in the garage and
the pleasure ride abandoned? II rid
ing thru the country on the Sabbath
day Is not a violation OF the command
ment then "a attending bail game on
Sunday violation OF the above ad-
monition?
The man who OWLS an automobile
thinks there is no harm in riding over
the country looking at the crops and
adm!ring the scenery along the road
| while he may be inclined to criticize
the bali game that is in progress along
| the road. Those who are not owners OF
automobiles may think 1t Is Just as
much sin to Joy ride over the country
In automobiles as 1t Is for those who
can not OF do not own automobiles 20
enjoy a ball game on Sunday. Who
is to be the Judge? Who Is able to
say which complies with the command
ment and which Is a violation OF 1t?
There are many things being done
on the Sabbath day that are in viola
ton Of the Sabbath observance COM
mandment and II needs no one to pro-
nounce them to be violations for they
are self evident violations. The atten-
ton OF the people ought to be called
to these violations for the good OF
humanity and for the good OF society.
The churches OF Shenandoah ought no.
to be criticized too severely for hold
ing a public meeting in which they APP
pointed a committee to investigate and
report what should be done and what
can be done TO persuade men to more
closely observe the Sabbath day. It Is
without a doubt the sins OF humanity
that are the cause Of the awful war
in which 30 many lives are being sac
sr.aced and OF the untold misery and
suffering that is abroad In foreign
lands and which Is coming nearer to
the homes of this country every day.
We are all placed here for a definite
purpose and as we fall short Of per-
forming our mission so also we are
punished for our sins.

mene in EUROPE that does not cripple

There is no better exercise for In
ducing nostril breathing than blowing
bubbles. It is sheer impossibflty to
breathe through the mouth and to blow
bubbles. In one Of the big children's
hospitals you may see children daily
blowing bubbles, AZ It helps to ex-
pand the lungs and induces deep
breathing. Children who blow bub-
bles frequen , at home are not Ike

IOWA BLOOD FLOWS IN FRANCE
TIefferson Rec


Iowa has made her first sacrifice
upon the soil of France, and the name
Of Merle d. Hay, OF Glidden. will be
written in the annals of history as the
first Iowa hero in this great war to
give his life in actual fighting for his
country and for the cause of humans
ty.
The people Of Greene county will
join with those Of our sister county on
the west in sincere mourning for this
splendid lad whose death brings the
war and Its deadly toll so close home
to us. Whenever his name Is mentioned
now or in after years the hearts not
only of his neighbors and friends but
of all Iowans, will warm with love and
gratitude, and some one will make
answer che died upon the field of
honor"
Needless now Of our praise and our
sympathy, he lies sleeping in SOL
dier's grave, but the people Of Ameri-
ca will see to 1t that he has not died
in vain. His death has given new i'm
petus to forces that will sweep round
the world, and will never be stayed I'M
til the cause of human liberty, and hu :
man safety, and human justice, for
which he so CALAMITY gave his young
life, is forever triumphant

Canada's Victory Loan.

Canada feeling the need that all ma
tons and many people do nowadays
to spend more money than income
provides. is going to supply the i'm
mediate deficit in her purchasing and
paying power by borrowing. When the
United States was In the same posi-
ton a few weeks ago it attained the
desired end by means Of what was
called a Liberty Loan" That name
having been pre- empted by her neigh
Dor. Canada is going to name her
forthcoming bond issue a Victory
Loan"
Perhaps she had other and better
reasons for choosing that title than a
mere desire to be different. The reason
however, can not be that she is any
more confident. or hopeful as to the
outcome of the war than we are, or De-
cause she does not realize. as well as
we do, that the object OF the war for
US both is TO insure the preservation
in the world of liberty as she ard we
and all the allies of both OF us UNDER
stand that word.
AS Canada has suffered from the war
far more than the United States has
as yet, it may be that the longing for
the wars one tolerable end is more
prominent now among her emotional
stresses than among ours. We are but
stepping across the line of preparation
into the domain Of action, and our cas-
ualties in comparison with hers, are
small indeed in number. They are
quite large enough already. however,
to give US solemn thoughts and to have
swept away the illusions some OF US
seem to have had as to the serious
ness of the conflict in which we have
engaged.
But that Canada is able TO dedicate
her loan to victory and TO leave liberty
as a sort of necessary implication from
the fact that she Is fghting-that IS
fine and it is encouraging. When our
losses and expenditures are proper
tionate with hers, we too, must raise
a Victory Loan and still believe with
all our hearts that the name is &C
curate as well as brayely chosen

Concert by the Woman's Chorus of
 the Norwich Music Association.


 The Norwich Music Association, which now occupies a very prominent place in the life of our city. has from the first met with the hearty approval and generous encouragement of both our musicians and our music lovers. The association has not alone accom- plished its original purpo SC in a re- marlZa bly, successful way but is show ing itself anxious to open up new fields of musical activity. In response to very many requests for the rorma- ton of a Wonan's Chorus the execu- tive committee arranged with MT. to head such an organization. An en- rollment of more than forty members was immediately secured and rehear- sals begun. Much time has been spent in voice culture and vocal train ing and the choral body has shown a ception. With the interest and en- couragement of the public properly manifested, this chorus now needs only the experience which a few pub lie appearances will bring to make it one of our most important musical factors. The concert to be given in Slater Hall on Monday, the Tth, is not alone for members of the Music As sociation but Is open to the public and n generous manifestation of interest will without a doubt be given this new organization. The soloists who will assist are Miss Olive Hunt. our well known pianist, and Miss Rae krlmer, a distinguished young harpist of Bos- ton. The harp. while lacking the breadth and sorority of the pianoforte, has a beautiful mellow quality which pleases everyone and Miss Kilmer's appearance will add a deIiehtfUI va riety to the evenings program Music Association membership tickets will be honored for admission to this con cert without further payment Tickets to other than association members will be 50 cents each from members of the chorus or at Cranston's.
