NO CALENDAR FOR 500 YEARS
Christians Reckoned Time According
q to Customs Of Nations to Which
They Belonged.

History tells us that for 500 years
the Christians had no calendar Of their
own. but reckoned the years according
20 the customs Of the nations to which
they belonged. The Roman Christians
used the "Anno Urbis Condltae," or
year Of the founding Of Rome, to count
from; others counted from the reign
of Diocletian, calling 1t "the Era OF
the Martyrs" and still others used the
cnlendnr of the Copts of Egypt. In the
sixth century Denis the Little, Greek
monk living in Rome, made calendar
counting from the Incarnation, the
date Of which he fixed ut 753 A. u. G.
So we commonly say that Rome was
founded 1853 B. G.
At the beginning Of the eighth CEN
fury the venerable Bede pointed out
that this was an historical blunder.
But no general notice was taken Of
his criticism and the error has contin-
ued to this day. Historic facts have
enabled modern scholars to determine
without much possibility of doubt, the
exact year of the birth of Jesus, and
to place 1t ut what we call B. g.
ut should be noted" says the great
French astronomer, Camille Flamma-
rion, chat the birth Of the Savior re-
manned totally unperceived at the
time. No register Of birth, no contem-
porary historian has bequeathed us
any sacred parchment registering the
event"
Moreover. although we are actually
approaching the year 1923 A. D.. there
is little probability that our calendar
Will ever be reformed to show the fact.
The confusion of dates that would re-
suit from substitution of the more ac-
curate designation would be too great
to mike such righteousness worth
while.-Cleveland Plain-DeaIer.

FERRY ACROSS THE CHANNEL
Freight Cars Are Carried for the First
Time in History From
England to France.

For the first time in the history Of
rallroaaing train ferry has crossed
the English channel from Newhaven,
England, to Dieppe, France. carrying
about fifty cars, says Popular Mechan-
les Magazine. Since early in the war
thousands Of British railway cars have
been employed In France in transport
ing troops and supplies, but they have
all been transferred to the continent
by freighters. The Inauguration Of
ferry service indicates that the diff
culties created by very pronounced
tides have been overcome Mt last to
the mutual advantage of these two al
lies. At Dleppe the water level varies
as much as 81 feet. To overcome this,
short bridges, attached at one enc to
the dock and resting on large floats,
are employed. During loading and un-
loading the ferry is chained to the
boat and dock pier as well The two
smokestacks are located one Mt either
side Of the craft, leaving space for
tracks down the center of the deck.

Are You Tired of Saving?

Are you tired of saving food?l Tired of MAX
ing bread from flour you never used before, tired
of going without sugar, tired of having to say.
Il cant-it's against the rules Of conservation ?
The food administration urges that be not
weary of We'll doing. The British Tommy and
the French poilu are tired Of four years in muddy
trenches. The pitiful army of civilians behind
own American boys may be growing just a
trifle tired of being 5000 miles away from home,
with no immediate prospect of return. No one
hears a murmur from across the water about the
fatigue that lies heavy upon the whole Allied
world. They out to win. They may drop for
a moment, but there is always the second wind -
which never fails to come.
Here at home are persons who complain of
being tired of their share in the war when that
share is merely judcious eating. They long for
peace time of bountiful food, as If more food
in the future were the only thing for which mil
lions of men have given their lives.e
Grim, determined and accomplishing the
American soldiers and sailors go about their job.
War TO them is task, an opportunity, duty:
so why complain?
The morale OF this army of ours is dependent
on the strength of those at home. whisper of
complaint goes far and grows louder as it re-
sounds across the Atlantic.
Imagine the thoughts of a soldier standing
knee deep in trench mud with shells bursting all
around him, when he reads in a letter from
America, I'VE are feeling the war now We get
and have not seen wheat bread for weeks
Feeling the war? Well perhaps. But not the
way the women OF northern France are feeling
1t. The strong chain which pulls for victory
must not be weakened by a single link of com
plant. The rules for saving are not unreason-
able. Remember there those in this world
who are really tired and are too brave to say so.

RED CROSS VS.. WHITE PLAGUE

Score one more credit mark to the rec
ord of the Red Cross in saving the anti
tuberculosis society.
The American Red Cross is reported to
have assumed the burden of the sale Of
Christmas Seals this year and one Of the
most important public enterprises in Amer
lea will be saved from expiring through
sheer neglect, caused by pressure of war
activities.
When the Red Cross membership cam
paign is conducted at Christmas, each new
member will be allotted a definite number
of seals, and the vitality important work of
the anti-tuberculosis society will be fl
nanced in this way.
It is another wise step in reducing cover
head. Fighting the white plague is we'll
within the scope of the work of the Red
Cross. War has greatly increased the raw
ages of this disease. 1t lies within the
power of mankind to eliminate tuberculosis
entirely from the world. The war has set
as back a decade or more in our efforts to
do this, but this increase in tuberculosis
only makes it more important that the
fight be waged more theoretically than
ever.

THE NEW RUSSIAN FRONTS.

Reports received last week that the
trans Siberian railroad is now in the hands
Of the Allies from Vladivostok to the
the Volga, give definite assurance that a
second great sector of the new eastern
front is in fair way to be established.
The first sector has been established in
the Far North. Based on the port Of Muir
rnansk on the Arctic ocean-a port which
may be used all the year around because Of
the Gulf stream-the Allies have pene-
trated southwark for several hundred miles.
The exact distance is uncertain, but they
are known to be as far south as KEN, fully
half way to Petrograd, and they are being
welcomed with open arms, They also con
troll Archangel on the White sea and the
railroad line for the greater part Of the
way TO Vologda
The second front, made possible by the
clearing of the trans.siberian railway, is
along the Volga river north of samara. Its
only base of supplies is Vladivostok, sew.
oral thousand miles away, but the line Is

HOW THE BURDEN IS SHARED.

Distribution Of the Allied forces on the
western front offers an interesting, revela-
ton of the way in which General Foch has
Unified all the armies under his command
into one great force.
The sector nearest to the North sea is
held by the Belgians. They have a strip of
perhaps twenty miles. Then come the
British, with a Portuguese division holding
perhaps ten miles on the right of the Bel
gians. Next comes a short French sector
around Mount Kemmel. The British then
hold long sector of 60 miles or more from
north of the Lys river to south of St. Quen-
tin. Next comes a French sector Of al
most equal length stretching around east
of scissors. Then the Americans have a
short sector of some IS or 20 miles to
Rheims From Rheims to beyond st. Mi
hiel, strip of perhaps IS miles, is held by
the French. Then comes an American sec
tor of so miles northeast of Toul From
there to the Swiss border, perhaps IS miles
more, the line is held by French and Ital-
ians.
Brigaded with French and British troops
there still remain about 10000 Americans,
according to General March s figures.
Comparisons Of the length of the sectors
held is unfair, for there are long stretches
of the front which have seen no infantry
fighting Of any moment since the war be-
gan. For example, the 100 miles or more
of battle front next to the Swiss border
has been inactive almost from the first re-
treat from the Marine. Of the battle front
from the North sea to Rheims, where all
the fighting of the last year has taken
place, the British hold fully one-half with
the remainder divided between the French,
Belgians and Americans. But the long
stretch from Rheims to Switzerland is held
mainly by the French 1t would not be
surprising if the Americans took over the
line from the Swiss border as far as the St.
Mihiel salient at least or perhaps to Yer
dun and used this front for their: offensive,
releasing French troops to reinforce the
line farther to the north

A War of Christendom

From 1.-THE Call of World Task in War Time"

menO
We cannot ignore the fact that this is a war
OF so-Called Christendom. One o-called Chris
tan nation nstigated a second Christian nation
to pick a quarrel with a third Christian nation
and refuse reasonable amends This led fourth
Christian nation to mobilize it's forces, where
upon Christian nation No. 1 declared war The
result was that fifth Christian nation became
belgerent. When a sixth Christian nation had
its rights violated forcing 1t into state of war,
there seemed to be no escape for a seventh

this is Chrstendoms war Moreover the line of
cleavage runs through all of the main divisions
Of Christianity. Before the United States and

Sixty-two million Roman Catholics were fighting
against $4,000 900 of the same church. The
Greek Catholics were not so evenly divided, but
they were on both sides of the encounter. ~

The Mud of Flanders
ON The Youths Companion.

From The Youths Companion.--.
London dispatch says that, on his return
from a trip to the front Major General Maurice
formerly director of military operations at the
war office, was asked by the Associated Press
correspondent what phase of battle front activity
impressed him most
Always the same thing-the mud" he replied.
1T is the most remarkable mud in the world.
AS an enemy, II Is more persistent than the Ger
man and more deadly than his artillery.
I had most remarkable object lesson of the
power of the Flanders mud during my week in
the battle area I visited hospital where there
were two Of our men who had been rescued after
spending 80 hours in the grip of a Flanders mud
hole. The two men, advancing across No Mans
Land in the semi-darkness, had stumbled in a
hole, and found themselves inextricably in the
clutches of the thick mud at the bottom When
rescued they had been there for 80 hours and
had been drawn waist deep into the clay.
"All sorts Of expedents were used to extricate
them, and 1t finally found necessary to fit a.
harness to them and pull them out with team
Of mules. Both men had their hips and knees
dislocated in the process That Is Flanders

now open. This battle line already is more
than 200 miles in length, and is located
some 400 or 500 miles directly east Of Mos
cow.
Farther south are British and Armenian
forces on, the Caspian sea, so that the MI
cleus of new eastern front stretching from
Murmansk or Archangel, down through
Vologda and along the Volga river to the
Caspian, is already in existence.
The most heartening feature of it is that
the Allies are welcomed as friends by all
factions but the Bolsheviki, and the pros
pect of re-establishing the Russian battle
front is growing more hopeful every day.

But how will you "be governed Mr.,
Evans if the majority of those voting on
the prohibition amendments favor prohibi-
tion and yet the prohibition amendment
lacks majority of all the votes cast at the
election7
Then suppose a prohibition Legislature
is elected and prohibition bill passed
How are you going to be governed "
then7 BY your masters voice?
II isn't by any means an unlikely situa-
ton. Examine the record of constitutional
amendments submitted in Minnesota in the
last ten years, and you probably will find
that the majority Of those which failed Of
adoption were favored by majority of
those voting on them.
But national prohibition is likely to de-
crease the contribution of Minnesota brew
ers to the Townley campaign fund. Even
the promise of a veto of prohibition ism t
worth much to them since the order Of the
food administration stopping the brewing
Of beer in December.

F0CH's REsERvE ARMY,

It is impossible to escape the significance
Of General March s announcement that viz
tually so per cent of all the Americans vino
have been sent overseas, are now under the
direct command of General Pershing.
The remaining 10 per cent are still bri-
gaded with the French and British troops
some in Flanders and some with General
Mangin's army in southern Picardy.
That leaves an army of virtually
100000 under the command of General
Pershing. From this must be subtracted
the American troops holding-or advanc-
ing-the line just to the west of Rheims,
and the troops holding the short American
sector northeast of Toul. At the outside,
these two sectors could not require more
than 100000 men, leaving a vast reserve
army of crack American troops eager for a
chance to show what they can do.
Where and when this immense reserve
army will hit, is probably known to not
more than half dozen men. But if the
French and British with little more than
the moral support of few Americans, can
keep the Hun harried and retreating for
six weeks, watch for some real fireworks
when this force of Americans is turned
loose.
Picture what might happen if million
Yanks should start drive northward from
Verdun along the Meuse valley, or toward
Metz and Thionville from the Toul sector

Chaplain Tells Of Catholics and Pretsstants Wers

From The Ohio State Journal
An army chaplain of the Episcopal persuasion
tells OF some experience he had on the western
front when his regiment was CHARTERED in a lit
tie town. The Huns had destroyed everything
there. not even leaving building to hold services
In. part of his story is as follows:
Finally went to see the Roman Catholic
chaplain q fine, broad big hearted Irishman from
Boston. Why not use the church? he said at
once. But I thought it was destroyed, and any
way didn't suppose you'd let me- answered.
