WORK THAT MOTHERS MAY DO FOR THE WELFARE|
OF THE CITY AND THEIR CHILDRENIS TOLD; THE
FOODS THAT CHILDREN SHOULD NOT BE GIVEN

IN the beginners department the
aim is to awaken and develop the
child's consciousness of God. through
the recognition Of the Fathers care.
and to stimulate in the child a glad
response to the Heavenly Fathers
love, by his obedience and helpful
ness.
The little child is a beginner in
thought and in language; he takes
only one idea at a time. expressed in
simple language-no sermons. but
stories involving objects and events
of the child's own experiences
THE cooperation of the home IS
necessary for the best results. Moth
ers should provide themselves with
pictures. etc. to follow the work Of
the teacher. and superintendent. with
the repetition of the story, song and
play in the home.
Suggestions as to home material.
songs, prayers and selections for the
Christmas time occupied the closing

Many Seek Furloughs
to Work With Farmers;
Must Give Full Data

The United States Employment
Service has been deluged with re-
quests by military men for informa-
ton regarding the necessary steps
to be taken to secure furloughs from
army duties so that they may do
pressing agricultural service in the
farming areas. The approach of the
planting season for 1919 and the gath
ering in of the fall corn crop are
responsible for the requests. The
" ar Department has issued general
orders granting furloughs to men
needed in agricultural occupations
TINS fall. Commanding officers al the
ioughs given. Men. en- bloc, willing
TO work ON farms may do so but the
requests for furloughS must come from
farmers. Individual furloughs to do
farm work are granted through the
applicants local draft board. A spe-
clal blank form is used in making out
the request. Whether the farmer or
enlisted man makes the application
the latter must give complete infor-
nation concerning the location of the
farm, necessity for the furlough, acre
age figures and other data. The mill
tary authorities judge by this whether
the soldier should or should not be q
temporary farmer.
Deferred ClassiticaIions are given
men now on the farms until after the
passed. Application for deferred
classification under the circums mstances
must be made first to the local draft
board and upon its approval be sent

New German Chancellor
Foe to Democracy

Washington, Oct. Z. - As casting
an interesting sidelight on the views
OF tne new German Chancellor, Prince
MaXimilian of Baden, who has be-
come so suddenly a central figure in
world affairs, the committee on public
information gave out the translation
Oh a speech delivered by the Prince
on August % at the one hundredth
anniversary of the granting of a con-
stltution to Baden.
In the address the Prince, who at
the time probably had no idea that he
was soon to be the spokesman for
germany IN an attempt to bring
ABOUT peace, cast a decided slur upon
the western democracies," and said
ne hoped their mob rule, lynch Justice
and 'boycotts would always remain
foreign to Germany. He referred to
the new heathenism" of Clemenceau
and Lloyd George and the low and
rude sentiments for our enemies"
He declared that England, France
ana America We're determined to de-
stroy Germany; that their long shat
tered illusions on this subject were
rising again, but shall be shattered
again"
Through the speech runs a vein of
unchangeable faith" in the ruler of
Germany, and the Prince quotes from
a declaration of the Upper Chamber
of the Baden Parliament at the time
the constitution was granted, this
sentiment:
The war is still going on. In Eng
land, France and America the deter
mination to destroy US is becoming
more shamefully apparent than ever
Their old long-shattered illusions are
again rising. But they shall be shat
tered again. 1t is not necessary for
us to encourage ourselves to remain
united. Every act, every speech of
the hostile governments. calls out to
us: Close your ranks; the storm
which is threatening our national life
is severe and will last long. Who
doubts that we will victoriously with
stand it? The Upper Chamber of
Baden thanks your Royal Highness
(the Grand Duke of Baden) that it
may here give testimony of the
thought of German freedom, as it has
remained alive throughout our his
tory With moved heart. it repeats
to-day the VOW of Interchangeable faith
toward it's ruler"

Troops Well Supplied
With Food During Fight

with the American Army, North
west of Nerdun, Oct 6. (Delayed).-
The American troops engaged in to-
days attack were we'll looked after
by the American Commissariat. The
men in the front trenches in the
early morning ,shivered under the
penetration of the chill in the misty
air. but the directing force of the
rapidly growing American fighting
machine had not forgotten the con-
ditions likely to prevail and almost
every man had been supplied with
warm clothing. To the great ma
jority of the men sleeveless leather
coats had been issued. while trucks
moving from the rear bore ton upon
ton of nvercoats.
Moving over every road were the
commissary trucks and movable
witchens. The earlier lessons had
been well learned. the men in the
trenches and in the field were not
going hungry. Comparatively few
of them had occasion to resort to
their iron ration. They were served
with hot coffee and some sort of
substantial cooked food. These were
supplemented by wagonloads of choc-
olate of the sort that comes in little
rectangular cakes wrapped in paper.
The routes of the Americans. both in
the trenches and the fields over
which they passed were marked by
the small paper wrappers the men
had thrown away.

before company was another. Still
another reason, pre-supposed. is that
she. never entered their play or
showed them that she was inter-
ested in their having a good time.
These are the most important rea-
sons.
Instead of going to the window,
she should have gone quietly to the
door, called the older of the bows
to her with a positive smile on her
face, and after the boy reached her,
said slowly in low voice. something
like this: Byron, you and Chester
may play on the lawn out here but
do not touch any of the shrubbery.
This is certainly fine day. isn't it ?"'
The question in the latter part
of the quotation could be omitted
but it helps to show a friendly spirit
and, for this reason, aids in getting
the desired response from the child
When children do things that an
noy, it is the most natural thing in
the world to tell them to stop in a
way that shows your disgust. But
this causes the children naturally to
take all the advantage they can in
the future.
One mother had trouble with
some neighbor children who like to
annoy her by ringing the door bell
and then hiding. One evening the
father happened to be in the house
when the door bell rang and saw the
boys skip away TO their hiding place.
Instead of going out Immediately.
this father wisely waited till the
boys came out from behind the
bushes and then he came out of the
house whistlirg, pretending not to
notice the boys especially. The boys
spoke to him and, on seeing that he
was going to do them no harm, ap-
preached him and got him TO play
little game with them.
The father entered the game ca
Enthusiastically and after playing
about a minute. he had all of the
boys sit down on the grass in a cir
Gle around him and announced in a
very low, confidential voice: The
bell on the front door is attached to
an electric battery which wears out
if the button is pressed long at
time. I wanted to announce this
to you boys and if you see anyone
else going to push the button. tell
them l don't want it used unless
they are on business. You will all
remember this. 1 know. All right,
let's finish our game. Those boys

1t always is wise in advising chill
dren to leave your premises,
whether there be two or p dozen,

from his musings.
Yes, darling" solicitously.
What's wrong? Have you hurt
yourself-or are you very tired?"
'Nothing's the matter" she
laughed at his question. II was
only wondering when you could
get in touch with the friend you
mentioned"
What friend?" he questioned,
puzzled.

John Butler put his arm about
her and drew her to him.

Il was just wondering" she con-
fessed. ''if you could communicate
with him soon-for 1 do not want
Amos to own the place."
"He won't" with confident
smile. The man 1 spoke of has
decided to buy it at your brothers
own price"
"Oh! Her exclamation was so
fraught with astonishment that her
companion smiled. But how do
you know? Surely you have not
had time to confer with him? Who
is he?"
"Guess" he teased.
Then, as she saw the look in his
eyes, the truth burst upon her.
