The Ishpeming Iron Ore in
speaking of the coal saving plan
for next winter, when serious
shortage Jis predicted, Says the
following among other pertinent
and timely remarks:
"It would be no hardship for
the many church congregations to
hold services in one building. IL
desired each congregation could
hold service at different hours.
Nothing else to do in the winter
season, you know. No auto rid
ing, no gardening, no golfing or
fishing. Why not boom the church
business, and. get all the people
going to the same place, thus mix
ing up with one another, broad
ening ideas,. getting better ac-
quainted and saving coal? Why
not, indeed9 It ought to be easy
to arrange so all the members
could be served. # congregations

IF any riveter in a shipyard
drives only 60 riyets where he
could drive 120, he has driven 60
for freedom and he has left 60
undriven for the sake of the Ho-
henzollerns. If any man works
three days at high wages and
loafs the next three because of
the high wages he has received
during the first three, he is an
enemy to America and an ally of
the Kaiser. If any man, if any
capitalist, makes undue profit, or
if any workman scants his job, he
is playing the game of tyranny
against liberty and he is false to
his brothers in. uniform at the
front. Theodore Roosevelt at

Few people, indeed, in this
country now fail to realize that
we are fighting a brutal, relent-
less enemy. The indictment
against the Hun grows stronger
every day. He is absolutely de.
void of pity or chivalry. An
American correspondent reports a
conversation with crippled Brit
ish officer who after a long stay
in German prison pens, had been
exchanged.
The officer told of men so fee.
BILE from lack of food and bad
conditions as to be able scarcely
to stand being forced to work at
the point of bayonet until they
dropped from sheer weakness; of
soldiers buried to the accompani-
ment of the jeers of German SOL
diers; Of the long journeys Of the
badly wounded without relief of
dressing, food, or water; of
wounded prisoners marched to
exhaustion and then shot down
like dogs when they could no
longer walk; of prisoners put into
camps where typhus ragged.
This is the kind of enemy we
are fighting, and this is why all
of us must get down and put ev-
cry bit of our strength back of
the government. For one thing,
we must buy only those things
necessary to maintain ourselves
in the most efficient condition.
That will give the government
more labor and materials Tor war
purposes. And then with our
savings we must buy War Savings
Stamps. That will give the gov
ernment current funds with which
to use labor and materials in the
successful prosecution of the war.
We must do as President Wilson
asks US to do in his message
pledge ourselves on or before
June % to save constantly and
to buy regularly government Sc
curities. We shall then be doing
our part.

be consolidated because

cannot be consolidated because
some ladders leading to heaven
hasn't rungs that suit everyone,
then let each one take his own
ladder to one building and climb
according to his idea, with his
particular denomination holding
service at nine, ten, eleven, one,
two, three, four, five, six, seven,
or eight o'clock, and thus save
fuel. 1t could easily be arranged.
We are certain the Lord would
not complain, or that anyone s
chances for everlasting salvation
would not be wrecked if several
churches joined in the holding of
services at the same time and
place. These are extraordinary
times when the need Of food and
fuel conservation is of the utmost
importance. 1t is directly in line
with the work of winning the war,
and the war must be won, by us. +"

Had Lots Of Fun.

Humor, which he had accumu-
lated from bottle and which bub-
bled over. caused John Zupancich
of the Chandler location to turn in
a false fire alarm at midnight We'd
nesday and caused the department
a needless run and the city the un-
necessary expense.
Zupancich was lodged in Jail and
yesterday Judge John Schaefer in
municipal court sentenced him to a
fine of 500 or 80 days at the work
farm for being so funny and monk
eying with the alarm box. In ad-
dition he was fined $50 or 40 days
at the work farm for being drunk.
Chief of Police Coffey took him to
Duluth today where Zupancich
will spend the next four months
at Fred Wards home for funny

Ideals Raised.

Lord Syndenham, the late governor
of Bombay, speaking in Calcutta on
the "Problem of India" said ''that he
went to India with no very great pre-
possession in favor Of missionary
work. But after FIVE and half years
of careful study Of the conditions and
tendencies of modern India, he had
come to the conclusion that mission
airy effort was playing far greater
part than was generally realized In
raising the standards and ideals Of
life among the people and therefore
fulfilling one of the greatest and most
sacred of their national responsible.

DANGEROUS Attitude.

A 'fife is nothing but a gamble" It
is doubtful If more poisonous proverb
was ever hatched in the brain of ia
talist. To admit that statement to be
true Is to becloud the mind with doubt,
to practically abandon the God-given
faculties of reason and will and to con-
fess oneself a derelict on the ocean Of
chance with no compass to guide and
no anchor but that of broken hope.
Life is not gamble. 1t manifests ac-
cording to fixed and definite forms and
1t should be the business and pleasure
of every intelligent creature to try to
discover the laws of nature and Of his
own being and to govern his conduct
accordingly.-Los Angeles Times.

important Surgical Discovery.

A new theory Of the shock, or low
cred vitality, attending many surgical
operations Is that it is due to clogging
Of the smaller blood vessels with fat
glObules. Investigating, DR.. w. T.
Porter of the Rockefeller institute
found that shock is most common in
patients with fracture Of the thigh
bone and those with multiple wounds
through fatty tissue, and laboratory
studies showed the probable cause.

ing carbondioxide to the air inhaled
Overcame the impediment In most

Martyrdom Of Bruno.

The first great philosopher of the

Del Flori, facing the vatican, and a
demonstration is held there every year

Travellers Tales.

Elephants are peculiarly amenable
to kindness. and 'tis stupid pachy-
derm, indeed, that doesn't know his
own mahout. When the keeper is away
the elephant won't eat, but sorrows
and starves. Crocodile hunting Is good
sport. The people of AMMAN are croco-
dile charmers, calling-the reptiles out
Of the rivers to be killed. Fried croco-
dile tail is delicacy to tempt the
palate of anyone. We are very fond
Of 1t. Young boa constructor, sliced
