ant labor leaders in America, plan
ned a publicity campaign to offset
the pro-German propaganda among
workingmen. This was denounced
as being the disloyal work of a few
noisy but very persistent and deceit
full agitators. Speakers will visit
every big labor center to carry the
message Of loyalty and service to
America
That's the kind of move that en-
ployers cannot afford to forget.
Men who are big enough to take
an action of that kind, are big en-
ough to deserve the most serious
consideration when they come pre-
senting claims for justice. They
should find employers predisposed in
their favor and inclined to grant
their demands just as far as it Is
possible to grant them.
The action of the unions draws a
sharp line of demarkation between
two classes of labor-those who des-
troy and those who construct. The
employer has his choice, labor unions

REMEMBER THE BIRDS AND
DOGS.

In these days of terrific, Furnishing
heat IL is pitiful to see the dogs run
ring painting about the streets; TO see
the robins and sparrows congregat
ing about any hose that is left run
ming.
Don't forget the birds and animals
these days.
A bird bath can be CONSTRUCTED out
of the cover of a discarded garbage
can. or the cover OF a crock, or any
shallow basin. II should not be more
than two or three inches in depth.
Sink IL in any spot in the backyard,
and keep 1t filled with water. The
birds will soon find 1t, and when they
do. IT will be in constant use during
these hot afternoons, and a constant
source of entertainment to you.
Place a basin of water in a spot
where passing dogs can find 1t.
Think how much extra water you
consume these days, and remember
the birds and animals.

A worthy Yorkshire canon, who
had been greatly displeased by an
act of disobedience perpetrated by
one of his gardeners, sought an
interview with tho offender in order
to Feprimand him.
Knowing that If he were able to
avoid the interview. until his mas
ter's wrath had abated he would
come on with only a few mild words
of censure. the man kept out of his
way.
Al few days afterward, however,
when the storm was quite over, mas
ter and man came face TO face In
orc OF the hothouses, and the canon
asked;

ton Herald says:
The selection of the great
American army has been made
with no one to question the fair
ness of the method adopted. In
Williams county some 1000
young men of military age have
been assigned their places in
the long list which will be drawn
upon as divisions of the great
army are called into service.
There should be strong ten
dency to look upon service in
the national army as a duty
which cannot be lightly eyaded.
Only the weightiest of reasons
should have influence with the
exemption boards and only such
reasons as will stand the
searching light of ones own self
respect should be placed before
the board.

THE HOPE IN RUSSIA.

What a curious spectacle is pre-
scented on the southern part of the
Russian front! -
To the extreme south the Russians
and Rumanians are pushing forward
IA q strong offensive, capturing pris-
oners. guns and villages.
just to the north of them, the Aus
tro-Germans are pushing forward
pursuing the fleeing Russians.
Still further north the two armies
are deadlocked.
Each army may be presented with
the opportunity of getting behind the
other and cutting it's lines of COM
munication. 1t is open warfare as
contrasted with the trench warfare
which is the only kind known on the
western front and it offers great OPP
portunities for strategy. There is the
Possibility of great decisive move
ments and spectacular engagements.
Events viii happen quickly in such
conflict. 1t is one of the most inter-
esting phases Of the war to date, and
with such meager reports as are at
hand, its possibilities can only be
guessed at. 1t offers something to pin
hope to, however. and there is
the possibility that the Bear That
Walks-Iike-a-Man win deliver one
Of its unexpected blows.

. The Bismarck Tribune comments
as follows on some critics of the
government:
According to Senator Town
send of Michigan, it is not the
advisory commission Of the
Council of National Defense that
the public has to fear, as alleged,
but the horde of vultures who
have swooped down on Wash
ington looking for fat contracts,
and who, disappointed at not
getting them, have become
scandalmongers villifying those
who have kept them from get
ting their clutches on the gov
ernment's money" This is
strong language, but it points
straight toward the origin of the
attack on public officials whose
offense consists in backbone.

In The Open Forum
A Column Devoted to the Task of
Keeping Up With North Da-
kota Editors.

Weekly papers in North Dakota
are entitled to much credit for the
manner in which they handled the
news Of the draft Every weekly
paper of any consequence published
as fully as possible the names of
those likely to be drawn from their
own county. Most of them publish
ed the complete list of numbers. 1t
was a big undertaking for a city
paper, and for a small town weekly
with its much smaller equipment, 1t
was a tremendous task Their sub
scribers should appreciate the effort
made to give them service on such
an important occasion. There are a
dozen or more which made q par
ticularly good showing, and The
Forum would like to congratulate
them especially, knowing something
of their difficulties.
The Devils Lake Journal has the
following to say of the liquor tax:
The liquor lobby is insisting
that the government can not at
ford to give up the revenue de-
rived from the sale of liquor. II
would look like a government
that can call for bids for a two
billion dollar loan and receive
subscriptions of three billions
might be able to dispense with
the taxes collected on liquor. AS
il only amounts to a few dollars
for each individual, the voter
can decide for himself whether
he can afford to go into part
nership with the saloon in order
to avoid paying a few dollars
more tax. The man who helps
to keep the saloon in existence
must share moral responsibility
for what the saloon does-he is
a partner without receiving any
of the financial profits.

NEGRO QUESTION A PROBLEM.
IS DIFFICULT MATTER FOR
METHODISTS TO SETTLE.
Joint Commission on Unification
Names Special Committee and Sets
Date for Report.

Baltimore, Nd, Jan. 2.-Afrer
adopting resolution that leaves open
the door for future negotiations and
sets June 27 as the date for the next
meeting, the joint commission on uni
fication of the Methodist Episcopal
church and the Methodist Episcopal
church. South. adjourned today.
1t is understood the disposition of
the negro Methodists was the one
problem for which no solution was
found. Bishop Earl Cranston of the
Northern body was named chairman
OF a committee appointed to deal with
this question and report at the next
meeting.
The resolution says it was agreed
that the fundamental and vital issues
were the general conference and it's
powers; the Northern conference
their number and powers, and the
status Of the negro membership of the
Methodist Episcopal church In the re-
organized church.
1T was believed" the resolution
continues. that IL agreement should
be reached touching the three items
mentioned above. with time and pa
tience and with the help of the Holy
Spirit. the details of O plan for the
unification of Methodism could be
worked out.
We are happy to be able to report
that We find ourselves in general
agreement concerning many of the
questions involved. However, in view
of the magnitude Of these questions,
1t was manifestly impossible for US
to reach final conclusions. For far
ther consideration. therefore, we have
referred the subjects to strong COM
mittees with instructions to present q
detailed report at session Of the
joint commission to be held June 27
at a place to be designated"
