STARVING ARMEN|ANS
MUST HAVE FOOD

The spectre OF starving women
and children cannot be hid by a
small contribution OF money once or
twice life time. Their gaunt forms.
pinched faces. out-stretched hands
and pitteous cry for bread, bread.
still rings in our ears, and will not
down.
Will we who can. help them? Or
will we eat our fill-and then
some-and let them perish?
Most OF. us are blessed with an
abundance They why not share with
those who are starving.
Read the article in Tuesdays
Courier, Armenian Survivors Flock
to Jerico," and that is only one OF
many districts.
Our county thus far has donated
but $500, not much over one third
our apportioned $4,000. Mr.. Chris
tie sent check for $500 yesterday
to Ben Selling, our state treasurer.
Many seem to have had wrong
impression as to what amount was
expected from them. Some thought
dollar was about the maximum,
and gave accordingly. Several bus
iness men stated this to me. That Is
geat mistake. This appeal was
not on the basis OF what othes gave
but how much can give to save
lives. not save dollars. but lives.
Since learning the facts and think
ing It over several have doubled and
trebled their subscriptions. one mar
sending a check for $25, and Others
who we're not seen by the solicitors
have sent in donations This II
right. for why should we have Il
plead for such cause. To know
that people are dying for the lacl
OF food should move every individual
whose heart is not hard and selfisl
to be anxious to help. Won't you
who are fareing sumptiously ever
day do the same thing?
Many Portland people more thai
doubled their first donation whel
called upon the second time.
These starving people must be fe'
or they will die. And It Is the peo
pie of this county that must furnis'
: the food, so we are going to con
tinue our appeal for another 3
days. so do not wait to be called up
on the second time, but you VIII
can, send generous contribution t
F. II. Christie, treasurer, or to an
of the solicitors, or to myself. w
should at least double the $500 tha
has been collected That mean
those who have, and are buyin
Liberty bonds, should sacrifice III
tie to save lives.

NEW KIND OF PLEASURE

NEW KIND OF PLEASURE
For the first time in their lives
this year thousands Of men and
women will experience the unalloyed
pleasure OF making things grow.
A garden is about as pure a work
Of creation, as finite beings can at
tain to. And the results come so
quickly, compared with most human
activities. You put handful Of
seeds In the ground. and there in a
few days. is the eternal miracle OF
life, tiny shoots pushing through the
hard soil and lifting their heads to
the light.
To the novice it is an almost in
credible thing that the little specks
he buries should grow. The first
discovery that one can actually raise
onions or carrots or radishes brings
q thrill OF triumph such as one ex-
periences seldom in lifetime.
And then there is the ineffable
series of satisfaction running
through the spring and summer. as
crop after crop swells and branches
toward maturity. And there is the
contamination Of triumph, the pure
Joy Of tasting ones very own vege'
tables on ones own table. Beside
that, right viands at kings table
would be stale and insipid.
These pleasures, like others, want
with experience 1t is the new gar
dener who gets the most out OF gar
den. Though half his efforts q
wrong. the successes keep him in I
state OF continual rapture. And on
who has played this fine game o
creation in his early years and thel
kept aloof from the soil until middl
life or old age can renew his youth
and feel all the old thrills again,
he will only renew acquaintanc
with teeming mother earth.
Gardening time is here again
Have a fling at It now or never. Pic
out some seeds. Gather up the gar
den tools. A rare privilege is await
ing you at your back yard. And be
sides, food raised is food saved.

DOCTOR BLACK IN WAR TIME

The Rev. Hugh Black is with us
again. A hearty welcome is extended
him from Columbians, from faculty
and from students. Doctor Black is
a student and a professor of practical
theology and in his written works he
has devoted himself very largely to
spiritual and devotional themes rather
than to controversial or doctrinal sub
iects. His books and his lectures have
been as he expresses it. for common
Christian purposes"
These who read his books and those
who heard his lectures were cheered.
stimulated and uplifted and those who
sought a broader spiritual vision
found in him a sure guide to the
mountain tops of higher life.
Doctor Black now comes to US in
wartime. when last he spoke to us
he talked along academic lines but
now he discusses problems raised by
the war. He could have said much
about the war when he spoke here
last year and his personal opinions
at that time have since been vindi-
Gated but he refrained from such
discussion. Now he is free to talk on
war questions and he talks as forcibly
and as clearly on war problems as he
did on academic and religious ques-
tions.
EITHER my God is dead or Germany
is doomed" says Doctor Black and he
makes it plain that to be pro-German
is to be anti-American.
America does not love fighting but
she was forced into war and is going
to show the world that she can fight.
Doctor Black is a theologian and may
not love to give war lectures but we
are in the war and since he knows
that never a nation went to war more
Justly or more deliberately than did
the United States-never country
entered a war more unselfishly" he is
discussing war problems and is doing
it in a way that helps us realize that
we are in war and that we must fix
the responsibility and punishment for
this war, or all the brave men who
have gone down, have died in vain

NOT TOMORROW, BUT TODAY

Today is not the time to keep your
love. tenderness and kindness sealed
away from the eyes of the world. II
there ever were time that the Amer
lean youths should have their lives
filled with sweetness and joyfulness
it is now. Today is the time to speak
approving, cheering words while they
can hear them: as tomorrow may be
too late The kind things you mean
to say when they go, say before
they go.
To wait until another day is too
much like waiting until one is dead
before the flowers of sympathy and
affection arsSDrought to light. Let us
learn TO cheer our friends before hand
Post mortems do not cheer the trou-
bled spirit Flowers on the coffin
cast no fragrance back over life's
weary way, and words of cheer are as
nothing when the ears cannot hear.

A WOMAN on THE SCHOOL BOARD

A WOMAN ON THE SCHOOL BOAhD
Columbia has the opportunity at the
next city election April 2 to put herr
self higher in the class of progressive
cities by giving women representa-
tive on the school board. There are
a number of women in Columbia capa-
BILE of filling a place on this board who
would devote much time and energy
toward bettering the educational sys-
TEN.
Other cities have placed women on
the school board and the educational
systems have been benefited. WO-
men are often more interested in
school problems than men. They
want their children to get the most OF
the time spent in school. They are
interested in the sanitary condition of
the school room, in the courses that
should be stressed. Men are apt to
emphasize the business side of the
school and to let the real work of the
teacher take care of itself.
Columbia is an educational center.
The University, Christian and Steph-
ems colleges have women for heads of
departments and Christian College
has a capable woman president.
Should the women's clubs of Colum-
bia get behind a movement to elect one
of their number on the school board
they would have a splendid chance for

every principle of honor, is malicious
and degrading.
IL such system were permitted to
conquer in this struggle, 1t would
wrest from the free people of the
world not alone their freedom and
their ideals Of democratic justice,
which, through generations OF priva
ton, perseverance and indomitable
will, they have wrung from the past,
but 1t would crush all the achieve
ments of peaceful industry, of educa-
ton, and especially of spiritual aspira-
ton, which are the hard-earned fruits
of these generations Of world service.
Must Save Our Children.
We must save our children from the
debasing spirit of militarism, If Amer
lean men and women are ever again
to hope for the things they have cher
ished, and from which their ancestors
sought to escape when they defied the
tyranny of the domination of might
and gave TO the world the democratic
ideals of justice and equality in the
immortal Declaration of Independence
to which our flag and our country are
dedicated.
1t is not enough that Germany shall
be defeated In battle or conquered by
hunger; she must be shown the truth,
that the world will no longer permit
which threatens its peace or paralyzes
the processes Of civilization.
I'VE Are Awake Now"
Whatever may have been our error
in the past. however blind we may
have been, we are awake now.
Whatever mistakes we have made
In the past, however we may have
underestimated Germany's desire to
crush the democratic ideals of the
world, now that that purpose Is known,
1t must be overcome If womanhood ana
childhood are to be saved anywhere.
There can be reparation for these
deeds nowhere, either in this world
or In the world to come. The only
hope lies In such q conquest over the
spirit of Germany that 1t may learn
the truth that 1t may understand that
today, as In time past, the only foun-
dalton, security and stability for any
pcOpie, 0eTudIy lnciuueU, Is III Tight
eousness; that above the roar of bat
tie, the shrieking of shells, the groans
of the dying and the cries of little
children. the prophets of old are call
ing in tones that the whole world and
Germany must heed, "What does 1t
profit a man? What does the law re-
quire Of them but to do justly, to love
mercy and to walk humbly with God?'
Esprit Regenerated."
1t is not enough that the military
power of Germany be conquered, but
the German spirit must be regenerated
Her mind must be open to learn the
truth about her false ideals of military
power, and we, too, must learn that
our fight is not alone to save eur coun-
try, important as that is We have
more than our own safety TO serve:
we must win peace, peace for ourselves
and peace of the whole world-for
without world peace there can be Sc
cured peace in no part of it.
