FARM LABOR.

Through the action of the Federal Government what
promised to be famine in farm labor has apparently been
averted. The work of the United States Employment
Service of the Department of Labor is bringing relief to
conditions that until recently the cause of grave con-

The scarcity of farm labor may still be felt in some
sections Where this is the the greatest publicity
should be given to the fact that the Employment Service
stands ready at all times to cooperate with the farmers
in remedying the trouble.
In any community suffering from scarcity of farm
labor application to your postmaster will bring blank
form that when properly filled out and forwarded to Wash
ngton according to directions, will put that community in
touch with the Employment Service. The heads of this
service wish the country to know that to date the service
has been able to supply labor to meet all calls and hopes
to be able to meet all future calls.
Farmers needing help and unable to secure it, should
not hesitate to call this department. which was created
primarily for their retef Tle Government urgent that
no land in the United States lies idle this year it pos
sbe to bring it under cultivation To this end farmers
who with proper help would be enabled to increase their
acreage of crops should avail themselves of the Employ
ment Service and exert themselves to the utmost to pro-
duce bumper crops.

Occasional Comment
By the Editor.
The DEVILS Own.

The devil welcomes every op-
portunity to destroy all that is
right and good. 1t is his busi-
ness. He welcomes every en-
missary that will aid in his work
of destruction. Never in the his
tory of the world has he been so
we'll served as at the present time.
The barbarous German and the
unspeakable Turk hand in hand,
pushing their campaign of pill
lage and murder and rapine with
a violence and on a scale that is
most gratifying to the Emperor
of Hell. 1t is Satan's war
against all that is righteous; and
Gods people must meet force
with force until these devils are
wiped off the face of the earth.
1t is not murder to kill them. 1t
is our duty to crush them in Or
der that the world may be fit
place in which to live and in
which Christianity may do its
work. For scores of years the
German rulers have steadily pur-
sued the most gigantic and hell
ish plot ever devised to under
mine the Christian religion. Un-
der the guise of embracing this
religion they have built up great
universities which have "Scien-
tifically" robbed the Bible of it's
essentials, denied the miraculous
birth, and questioned every vital
truth in the Book. Then they
have wormed their highly adver-
tised professors" into the COL
leges of the world to poision the
best OF our young men with their
sly skepticism. The extent to
which they succeeded is alarming,
and the world did not awaken to
the awful fact until recently.
The rulers of the Huns and Turks
know it would be impossible to
have their subjects commit the
dastardly crimes they desire if
permitted to know and exper-
ience the Christian religion.
That is why German 'Kultur"
was developed and used to get
rid of it.
When the war started, Ger
many launched the lie that it was
a commercial war and that she
was fighting on the defensive.
But every day since has produced
evidence that it is hell's own war
of conquest, deliberately planned

our Northern peoples do not often
get the combination of open air and
night and a frst-class band. The soul
of the Italian or French music more
commonly reveals itself in its full
beauty, when the whole population
pours out on summer night into
park, or square, or hotel garden and
walks or waits spellbound and critical,

Picturesque Tyroiean Custom Created
Around Their National Songs.

In the mountains Of Tyro. it is the
custom OF the women and children to
come out. when 1t is bedtime, and
sing their national songs until they
hear their husbands. fathers and
brothers answer them from the hills
on their return home. On the shores
Of the Adriattc, such a custom pre-
walls. There the wives of the fisher
men come down about sunset and
sing melody. After singing the
first stanza. they listen awhile for
the answering strain from off the
water, and continue to sing and lis
ten till the wel-known voices come
borne on the tide, telling that the
loved ones are almost home. How
sweet TO the weary fisherman, as the
shadows gather around him, must be
the songs OF the loved ones at home
who sing to cheer him. and how they
strengthen and tighten the bonds that
bind together these humble dwellers
by the sea. Truly, II is among the
lowly in this world that we find some
of the most beautiful customs in prac-
tice.

HOUSE HEAT AT So,
COAL RATION LIMIT
Garfield TO Issue Drastic Order In An
ticipation of Fuel Shortage Next
Winter.

To prevent possible shortage of
coal next winter, Fuel Administrator
Garfield announces that he Is plan
ming system of coal rationing to
householders throughout the country
He plans to allow each domestic
consumer only as much coal as 10
found necessary to heat his house to
6S degrees, provided every conserva-
ton rule Is observed. The allowance
for each householder. Administrator
Garfield says, will be sufficient for
comfort. but "the thoughtless and
wasteful consumer who finds his al
lowance gone before the end of the
winter Will have only himself to
thank If he has no fuel with which
to heat his house"
The administrators plan involves q
department of coal allotments in con-
nection with each local fuel admin
istrator's office. and this system will
be put into operation within very
short period, Each order of coal will
be censored by comparison with the
rating of the house where the coal
is to be used; all doubtful cases will
he checked up by inspecting the
house in question, and surplus coal
when ordered viii be refused.
Those consumers who have received
quantity OF coal In excess of their
allotment or who by deceit or mis-
representation have violated any ruiea
or regulations of the fuel adninistra-
ton will be prosecuted.
Administrator GARFIELD contends
that this new system will be drastic
and Will introduce conditions new to
the country. However. he expects
every ono TO recognize the necessity
and the reason for this stringent su-
pervision and to cooperate fully with
the carrying out OF the plan.

Sixty-Scvcn OF Scventy-Nine Men AZ
Plattsburg Received Honorable
Mention.

Charlottesville. Va, July 90
President Alderman has just received
a notice from the commanding Of
ficer of the r. o. r. c. camp. located
at Plattsburg. N. Y, to the effect that
sixty-four of the seventy-nine univer-
sity of Virginia students who volun-
teered for that camp. had been found
worthy OF special commentator. After
giving the names of the students con-
cerned, the commanding officer goes
on to say: The above students have
shown by their progress in military
havior, that they are worthy Of spe-
clal commentator. They are con-
sidered as good material for reserve
officers after receiving further train
ing"
1t should be added that three of
the seventy nine, not included in the
above, were found worthy OF very spe-
cial commentator. Hence IL is seen
that sixty-seven OF the seventy nine
students, volunteering for this camp.
won special or very special common
dation. When IT is remembered that
any OF the $50 men Of the r. O. T,
c. unit organized at the university
last session, who desired to go TO this
camp. were allowed to go, and that
there was no selection OF specially
qualified members of the training
corps to attend the camp 1t is obvious
that the large per cent of the men
showing proficiency argues well for
the training carried out at the TINT
versity of Virginia last session. Ger
tainly. the selection OF six men out
Of every seven for commendation Is
a satisfactory showing.
