One of the citizens of Faith

g5t it in operation we can
show it to visitors when they

Chance in Post Office Matters.

The post office department has
been making considerable chang
es during the last few years,
some of which seem to have
considerable merit and some look
otherwise, however, it is gener-
ally easier to criticise than to TN.
derstand. 1'he latest move is to
make the leading Office in a given
section, a kind of supply house,
or distributing point. This has
been done in the case of Sails
bury, and it is now necessary for
all other Offices in this county to
get their supplies from the Sails
bury Office and also to make re.
reports to it. This will make it
necessary for this office to carry
a larger supply and make it un-
necessary for thexother offices to
carry as large stocks as they
have heretofore. This seems
to be. consolidation and simpl1-
flcatlon of business and most
likely will be of much help and
convenience to the public.

American Law With Roman Exceptions.

Acknowledgement S P Free
ling Of Oklahoma decides that by
state constitutional provision
and bone dry law" of Oklabo'
ma the use of wine for sacrament
tai purpose is prohibited IN that
state. Bishop "eerschaert,
Catholic, denounces the decision
as "intolerablc and outrageous,
and declares his intentions to
use the wine. Of course every
C.tholic priest in Oklahoma will
follow the priest-bishop in defy
ing the law.
Many Protestant ministers use
unfermented wine or other sub
stitutes for sacrameutal purposes
and consider that they have no
need for alcoholic wines, either
by the bottle or the case, or bar
rel as do their papal brethren.

The Romanlzing Of Germantown, Pa.

According to the Independent
Gazette of Germantown, Pa,
there seems to be a rank and un.
justifable Discrimination on the
part of certain officials against
the Sunday schools of German
town. 1t has been the custom
to allow the use of the city play
grounds for civil and other pur-
poses without complaint or hind
rance. Fourth of July celebra-
tions were held in them, also
various athletic societies con.
duct their sports there. At one
of them the Hibernians we're
allowed to hold a carnival for
two weeks, but when the Sunday
schools of the city asked use of a
playground in which to hold a
historical pageant showing the
religious life Of the community
IN its early days they were re-
fused. The Hibernians were an
Irish Catholic organization and
could get playground for two
weeks.
The Sunday schools are COM
posed of protestants and couldn't
get the use of a playground for
an hlstorical'pageant for one day.
What kind of officials does the
city of Germantown have?

Jews as Citizens.

We see by late papers that
there will be about $4,000 Jew
ish soldiers and sailors IN the
United States service which will
be a very large per cent for the
tota of Jewish population. The
Jews are always true to thf coun.
tries in which they live al i are
especially loyal to the United
States where they find their
greatest freedom and opportun-
ity Tor advancement.
In every instance they can be
depended upon to do their duty
like men without boasting about
it like Children as do some others.
We hope that one result Of this
war will be to give the Jew the
freedom he deserves in every
country, and a complete restor-
alton of the land of his forefat.

tise your goods in the Watchman

There are lots and lots of people

any other paper but this one.
We happen to know whereof we
speak. If you are prejudiced
against the paper on account of
its policy to such an extent that
you will not use its advertising
columns you are the greatest
loser Our readers will probably
conclude that you are preJudiced
against them also and do not
want their trade and they are
not likely to force it on you.
The paper stands for what it
conceives to be the right thing
and there is absolutely no apol-
ogy for its policy. If you do not.
believe in advertising may the
Lord have mercy on your unpro-
gressive spirit You are neglect
ing the one essential thing that

Home Grown Seed Are Best.

West Raleigh, N. G Sept. 20.
Pride is often expressed in
homegrown and home made
products, but when 1t comes to
seed we are too ready to discard
the homegrown product for
that from other sections of the
State or even from other States.
BY this means, seed are often
secured which are not adapted
10 the local soil or climate. Many
times a high price is paid for
seed that are not so good as the
homegrown seed. BY carefully
made tests, it has been found
that home-grown.seed of corn,
cotton, wheat, oats and clover
are better than seed brought in
from other localities.
A few people still believe that
crops "run out" when planted
in the same locality for seve, al
years. This is far from true.
Crops become better adapted
to the locality in which they are
GROWN. The condition known as
running oat" is usually duo to
a failure to save good seed each
year.
