An interesting chapter IN railway
history is recalled by the statement Of
the chairman of the City 4 South Lon
don railway that this line would have
been reconstructed If 1t had not been
for he war. The City e. South Lon
don enjoys the dual distinction OF be-
ing he first underground electric rail-
way and the first tube" railway in
the world. The tunnels OF the later
"tubes' are of larger diameter, ARA che
small size of the South London for
bids the utilization OF modern rolling
stock. The scheme of reconstruction
provides for AN increase in the diam
eter OF the tunnels. thus enabling larY-
er carriages to be used.

L NE CONr ESSlNG MAN.
Of course he came into Canaan. Such
men always arrive. And as he passed
thru its valleys and across its hills he
pitched his tent for camps but in each
case he builded an altar. He might
move but his God stayed. The tent
was temporary but the altar was per-
manent. Everywhere he went the altar
was found, its rude form heraldiug the
presence of It's God. The people jeered
or cheered and both were alike to him
for the altar rose in their presence.
That is the real need today; altar-build-
ers in home, store, factory, Office or
wherever we may find ourselves. Bishop
Mcintyre said, THE greatest day of
my life was when returning from a
brief wedding tour, we took up our
abode in humble Methodist parsonage
in Illinois. After the good folk who had
given the pastor and his bride such a
hearty welcome had departed, l went to
the back door and closed 1t. then to the
front door and closed that, and, return
ing to the parlor, took my wife's hand
and said, Darling, this is our home.
Let US consecrate it by erecting the
family altar and dedicating ourselves
afresh to God That was the greatest
day of my life" And the altar setting
day is the greatest in any mans life.

USE OF OTHER SWEETENERS
MAKES SUGAR THRIFT EASY

In the United States the consump
ton of not more than two pounds OF
sugar a month Is urgently requested
Of everybody by the U. s. Food Ad.
ministratton That ia the total amount
that should be used for cooking or
table use.
A limited extra amount, how ever, Is
cbtainable for canning purposes, as q
decrease in the amount of fruit put
away for winter use would be a mis-.
fortune. It Is not necessary, though
TO crowd the sugar in as of yore. Fan
less than was formerly used will give
the fruit a chance to assert its OVID
flavor. 1t is recomm ended that lot
of fruit be put away in its own Juice
alone and sugar added when the prod
uct Is served, after the December
sugar crop Is ready. 1t will be found
that less sugar will then be wanted
than would be used UP in the over.
sweet connections that stick to the
pre-war recipes.
Two pounds a month is the Mary,
land voluntary ration. That means
hundred teaspoonfuls for all purposes.
In case housewives are harassed with
any doubt as to their ability to get
along with that restricted amount
they might consider that for months
their French fellow-allies have been

spoonfuls. Even in Canada-which,
being northern country, needs more
Of this body-fuel than do people of the
south-the monthly ration asked OF
the people Is only seventy-fve tea

If 1t comes to a question Of proving
patriotism by saving sugar, Maryland
women will not yield the palm to
either Canada or France.

Work or Fight. :"

Every man employed in specified
lists of non essential Industries will be
forced by the Government to get es-
sential employment, and women will be
asked to replace men on a large and
general SCALE" is the message that
comes to Garrett county from official
Washington through the Council of De-
Tense and John K. Shaw, Chairman of
the Labor Board for Maryland.
This means that there is now short
age of million and a half skilled and
unskllled workers for essential war in
dustries in the United States, and the
Government, in order to obtain these
million and ahalf men, must necessarily
take them from their present occupa-
tions at home. So the officials at
Washington have decided to take only
the men whose positions can be filled
by women, in the hope that they can
obtain the required number in this way
without material loss of time.
We have been asked to state in our
opinion just who will be affected by
this order in Garrett county. In the
first place, few weeks ago, we pub
lished IN The Republican detailed list
of ali the non-essential work in the
county, and all those will still be con-
sidered non essential Jobs which
oop ba 6Ilad nv, r,or,aD nf oo,,,,a -.
Garrett county, the list would include
all clerks and other office help, ticket
sellers of all kinds, barber shop attend
ants, clerks in stores and post offices,
and all other work of similar nature.
AT the present writing, those men
who fail to change their positions which
can be filed by women. and who do not
seek other positions which are essen
tial to the winning of this war and
which cannot be filled by women, MUST
BE CLASSED AS SLACKERS!
Nathan A. Smythe, Assistant Direct
or General of the United States EN-
ployment Service says that eff the
plan fails to brand the men slackers,
then War Community Labor Boards
will insist that no man shall occupy
position which a woman can FILL" In
other words. if the men who are brand
ed as slackers still fail to seek other
employment, then the community La
Dor Boards throughout Garrett county
will have to take drastic measures to
COMPEL them to seek essential war
Jobs"
This is bunch" to you; don't give
anyone in Garrett county a chance to
brand you Stacker because you have
not given up your position which can be
filled by woman, and have not sought
an essential war Job, but go right
now and do so. and stick to the slogan
of President Wilson. WORK OR
FIGHT" That means that you must
either work or fight FOR THE
GOVERNMENT and applies strictly to
men IN the particular case to which we
refer. You cannot FIGHT unless YOU
go to the front, and you cannot WORK
until you are in one of Uncle Sam s es-
sential war industries! And above all,
don't forget that women can fill good
many more positions than we have any
idea of, and tack that motto up in a
conspicuous place in your brain so that
you won't forget under any circum-
stance to work or FIGHT" for
Uncle Sam.
