cities. most everybody conforms TO
the new order; in the country they still
reckon by the sun. 1t is easier fo-
those Of US whose lives have become
so largely artificial to adapt ourselves
to mechanical changes of habit-not so
easy for those who live close to ma.
ture. But one of our exchanges. which
is published in big city. feels the call
of the Wild. as d nearly all Of Us at
some time. 1t declares.
There is something alluring in the
idea of civilization in which the
mechanism Of the sun, moon stars and
winds would have more direct influ-
ence upon our daily lives. To be wax
ed by an alarm clock is distressing,
but it is not distressing to be walked by
the morning wind, or the CLINT Of
dawn, or the song of birds. To tear
leaf off a calendar inspires no one with
anything more than a sense of sadness
at this swift passing away of life, but
1t is quite the contrary to watch the
procession of plants, flowers, birds and
weather; the months of fogs, of rain,
of dust and drowsiness might do with
out their conventional mortality re
minding names. The mere passing Of
time is too mournful to contemplate,
while the play and change Of natural
forces is the most cheerful and soo.h-
ing thing in the world. The astrono-
mers attach their telescopes to clock
work so that they accurately follow
the course of the stars. The rest of
us might do worse than hitch our
clocks to consultations.
There is indeed something allur-
ing" in living in close touch and coon
GRAFTON with nature-as there is some
thing tragic in an opposite course. But
we don't live much in this life, any
way. We are bundles of habit and
routine, of struggling and signing for
something better, aspiring and long
ing and cropping after we know not
what. What is the secret of the mad
dening puzzle? What is the meaning
and sequence of the life that is now -

tray of War Baker last Wednesday
authorized the Associated Press to
carry to the people this statement:
In January | told the senate COM
mittee that there was a strong hkeG-
hood that early in the present year
100000 American troops would be dis
patched to France. / cannot either
now or perhaps later, discuss the num-
Der of American troops in France, but
| am glad to be able to say that the
forecast | made in January has been
surpassed.
The secretary Of war and every pat
riotic man, woman and child in Amer
lea has reason to feel proud of the
statement. Likewise is the further as
surance, in regard to the machine gun
situation, that "the estimate of the
ordnance department. in January has
been met and is being met"
Much loose talk was heard early in
our belligerency about our recruits in
the environments being compelled to
train with broom-sticks and mock-car-
non, and a great huliabaloo was rails
ed in certain quarters about American
mothers and fathers having their boys
taken away and sent to France to fight
with wooden guns"
1t was an awful picture. But it proves
now to have been nothing more, be-
cause as the Associated Press reports:

METHODIST WAR FUND.

What splendid patriotic inspira-
ton is furnished by the Methodist
General Conference in launching a war
fund of 100000 to be raised at the
rate of $1,000,000 year during the
next quadrennium.
1t shows that the Methodists are
ready to express in terms of actual
achievement the faith they uttered in
their recent ringing telegram of en-
dorsement addressed to President VIII
son as the very first act of the Gem
eral Conference after peifeeting or
ganization.
The great democracy of John Wes-
ley, illustrious founder of Methodism
renders it peculiarly appropriate that
this powerful church should lend its
strength in such generous measure to
the soldiers of freedom who are pour
ing out their blood on the battlefelds
of France to make the world safe for
democracy.
And appropriate also is the fact that
the plan for a great war fund should
be launched at Atlanta, the CAPT al
city of Georgia, where Wesley estab-
lished the original Methodist society
of the American colinies, presiding as
Mayor Gambler aptly said, at the chris
tening of the church and the state.
The Methodist fund is to be raised
under the special direction of Bishop
W. R. Lambuth, who IS relieved of his
other duties in order to devote his en-
tire time to the movement, and is to be
expended in promoting the recreation
and Christian welfare of the soldiers
in training and overseas.
The spirit of the General Confer
ence is well expressed in these stirring
words of the resolution authorizing
the war fund:
War work is the greatest task the
church has ever faced in an hour of
crisis. 1t is imperative in its need,
extraordinary in its demands, sacrii-
cial in its service to be rendered, and
is worthy of our highest and best ira
ditions. 1t involves the physical, the
moral and religious welfare of our
boys, and through them the winning
of the war, the vindication of the
rights and liberties Of the weaker ma
tons, the establishment Of righteous
ness in the earth, and a permanent and
worldwide peace. If we stand for the
liberty, for the rights of the many
against the privileges of the few, fo-
the brotherhood of man, we believe
that as a church we are justified in the
sacrifice of time, strength, money and
life itself, if need be, in the perform
ance of our task.

OLD MOTHER NATURE.

When the daylight savings law was
passed, the people fell into line Loyalty
and without complaint. This was due
in part to the universal spirit which
now prevails as a consequence of the
war, and in other parts to the fact that
it made little difference. Everybody
could neutralize the result by changing
his hours at the same time as changing
his clock if he wanted to. But in the
