GO TO CHURCH SUNDAY
Busiest Men In Country Find Time
to Go to Church. Do You?

Q man is too busy, no mans time so precious, that he
cannot afford to spend a small part of one day in sew
a y en- in the house of God.
Don't lie in bed on the Sabbath morn. The church services
are not at an early hour. Six days in the week a man will
rush for the office to be in time for business. That is all
right. He should be prompt in his business duties. He should
also be prompt in his business with God. 1t is true that this
lsa rush age, But the biggest men in the country, the men
whose services are worth as much in an hour as the ordina-
ry mans are in a day, may be seen for an hour and more
every Sabbath in church, These men find time to Go TO
CHURCH. They realize the seriousness Of their obligation.
Ihey are not shirkers. They do not consider it a sign of
weakness to be seen in church. They want to be seen there.
All honor to these men.
When you hear a man say that he is too busy to 90 TO
church reason with him. Recall to him that the busiest mon
IN the country manage to find time for divine worshin IF
you are healthy and prosperous go to church and thank
Goa Tor his blessings. If you are i'll and in want 90 to church
ana pray to God that your condition may be improved. And
that reminds us how ready some people are to FORGET Cod
ana ms blessings when things are coming their wav. II is
only when misfortune comes that they turn to God and the
churches. Then they need God and the consolation that tbe
church affords.
But, while God is merciful, he also is Just. If, when peo-
pie are prosperous and happy, they do not find time to visit
te mousse OF God it is not just that God should pour out his
blessings and graces to them when misfortune comes.
Don't make the specous plea that you're too busy to Go
To CHURCH.
90 TO CHURCH next Sunday and every Sunday.

. THE HOUSEHOLD
Edited by ANNE RITTENuOUsE
Why Blue Monday?

In some household someone always
has a headache on Monday. Someone
is always cross and Irritable. The chill
dren are always "fretty." In such
families We simply have to make al
lowances for Monday. We endure
moodiness on that day that we would
resent on other days. And this Mon
day indigo is often carried out of our
homes to the office and classroom.
The tactful little stenographer usually
spots the man of a blue Monday dis
position early in her employment. She
knows he is taking it out" on her, and
she might feel the injustice of it if she
did not somehow feel that he wasn't
quite responsible for it.
No, really the individual is never re-
sponsible for this piue Monday de-
preston excepting. of course, as the
individual is responsible for the habits
established in his own family. And as
the woman at the helm of household
usually has more to do in the forming
of these habits she usually has more
responsibility in this -day-of-the-
week gloom.
Perhaps diet has more to do with it
than anything else. For some reason
we Americans have way of turning
our meal habits topsy turvy on Sun
day. If you were a dog breeder you
would not think of picking out one
day in the week to change entirely the
days time for meals and the nature of
their food. If you did you might nat
tsrally expect a very ill-natured set of
Sfogs on the day after. To begin at the
Beginning. we like to lie in bed on Sun
fay morning. In fact. Americans who
do not make a practice of going to an
ea rly church service almost invariably
do sleep late on Sunday. This starts
as off wrong Either we try to get in
three meals in the short time remain
ing--or we try to manage on only two.
Md somehow whichever alternative
we choose we seem to have guessed
wrong. To get at the root of the mat
fer perhaps the trouble lies in wanting
to sleep late Sunday-and this. of
course. is usually the result of making
saturday night gala night when we
can stay up as late as we choose. If
this is the root of the matter, then the
best way to cure blue Monday is to
SO to bed in reasonable time on Sat
hrday. That doesn't seem so very
difficult, does it? 1t would at least be
fleasanter than the discomfort and
irritation of the result that seems to
be inevitable in so many families.
Besides diet faults one other fire.
uuent cause of blue Monday is lack of
Exercise and interesting occupation on
Sunday. This especially irritates chill
dren. But really we have Travelled so
far from the Puritan Sabbath of our
New England ancestors that if we do
sit idly about the house on Sunday
avoiding all physical exercise or di-
Version, we do so from a force of habit
and tradition rather than from any
real conviction on the matter.

THE FIRST SQUARE MEAL
How Red Cross Has Fed italian
Prisoners.

Last spring the Red Cross workers
at Berne were busy arranging to care
for the American soldiers who were
taken prisoners by the Germans, and
now the new exchange agreement
means that Italians from Austria on
their way back to Italy are being
cared for In hundreds. They are pa
thetic lot these grand blesscs' the
hopelessly wounded men-but they are
always delighted with the prospect OF
going home. even though 1t may be
going home to die. Nearly all Of them
are tubercular.
The method employed is this; The
Italian Government sends a train into
Austria through Switzerland to gather
I'D the men released under the eX-
change agreement. The train crosses
the Swiss border and at Buchs is met
by delegations from the allied Red
Cross organi .ati0ns, and under the
present plan the food Is furnished by
the American Red Cross. To many OF
these men this Is the first square meal
that they have had for years. Cloth
ing Is also furnished them. Each man
of the 800 which each train carries is
given cigarettes and small American
flag, and many who have been in
America, some Of whom have taken
out their first papers, are overioyed at
the bit of red, white and blue and most
demonstrative in their delight.
The representatives Of the Red Cross
remain on the train until 1t reaches
Zurich, then return to Switzerland
again.
II Is the food which America has
sent over which gives to these men
their first meal-food which has been
saved by eating smaller portions. and
by going without.
