Daylight Saving.

The passage of the daylight saving bill by Con-
gress means that the nation will witness most in
teresting experiment
The proponents OF the measure have made re-
markable estimates of what it will mean in in
creased energy to the United States-for instance,
il is estimated that with this help the gardens
of the country, not to mention other lines of ac-
tivity, can this year raise the equivalent of all the
food needed for six months by American army
of 100000 men.
The extra hour of daylight which will be avail
able under the bill means that in seven months of
twenty-six working days each, our "city farmers
will gain a grand total of s46oooooo hours-or al
most 100000 years of time And this estimate is
made on the basis of only 100000 war gardeners
although there is certain to be many more than
that this coming
If this is what it means to gardens alone,
it would be interesting to find out what it means
in other lines of activity Assuredly the daylight
saving bill is a of the first importance;
provided it works out properly. And there is every
reason to believe that it will.

The Greatest Thing in the World.

You've got something that's all your own
your personality. You can't give it away nor can
you exchange it for anothers. You influence others
through this peculiar power OF yours but 1t always
remains your own. Indeed. in the very exercise OF
this power you strengthen and more firmly fix it.
So true has this been in the lives OF men. that the
mere mentioning of the names OF well-known in
dviduals suggests certain peculiar characteristics
Caesar Napoleon, Gladstone Lincoln, Grant, remind
us not so much OF what they did as OF what they
were
Therefore, what a man is, is Of more import
ance than what he has accomplished. 1t is this by
which he will be longest remembered And this
applies not only the great men OF the worid'
but to those who walk in the humber places OF
life. Conduct is important, but character is more
important For what is will determine what
he will do.
We cannot get away from this great fact-that
every man stands absolutely alone, just as though
he were the only in all the world Whlie
we may sometimes think zen masse." and work IN
multitudes and pray by regiments and sing IN
battalions and trade by corporations, nevertheless,
there are times when the individual stands out
alone and when his selfhood asserts its existence
This brings with it tremendous responsibilities out
it also has its compensatons.
The greatest thing in the world is man. NOT
crowd of men, but just man. Made IN the
image of God with His attributes, with His spirit
breathed life and power, that man may gaze at
the mountains and feel that he is greater than tney
He may look out upon the seas and say: Il am
your master ~,
Because OF this, may take courage Inc
thought of it should brace up" that chap who is
down in the dumps. 1t should straighten up the
back of the fellow who has been drudge SO long
that he has forgotten that he is "a son OF the
King" with all the royal heritage of his Father.
Has somebody deprived him of his rights linen
by all the powers OF his Fathers kingdom, let
him stand up straight as real man, and win back
that which is his by virtue of his relationship 10
the Creator of all.
But he can best do this by becoming more like
, -o,,al son of God-heIl never do it il he lives
like the son of Beelzebub, the devil

Another 81 Varieties.

Fifty-seven lunchrooms in New York City-in-
slant service cafes cafeterias and one-armed chair
eating places-were closed on Tuesday because OF
violation OF the Food Administrations rulings re-
garding the Tess" DAYS The propretors Of these
places refused to censor their menu cards Tues
days. Wednesdays and Saturdays, but offered beef,
wheat and pork seven days week
Perhaps the owners of these places not
wholly at fault. 1t may be that their customers
are Of that brand of Americans who refuse to let
the interfere with their comfort. If so. both
suffered by the enforced layof, the restaurant
through losing days business. the customer
through being forcibly deprived OF the forbidden
food day at least.
The punishment is mild We OF the United

States have not yet been called upon to make any
supreme sacrfice for the men who have gone to
the other side to do fighting X has all been
too easy. Perhaps this is why the rank and file
of the American people do not yet realize that
we are at war.
The @less' days as laid down by Mr.. Hoover
have worked hardships nobody-they have
hardly been uncomfortable and those who violate
this mild food censorship should be shown that
they have no place in the scheme OF things today.
But there may be more drastic punishment in
the closing Of guilty lunchrooms for ono day than
appears on the surface. To number OF Ameri-
cans the closed door on Tuesday will be regarded
as thing of permanence. In the future they will
pass that door on all days

A Reinforced Concrete Ship.

Thursday afternoon at Redwood City, Cal, the
steamship Faith launched. 1t was the hrs'
ocean-gong reinforced concrete steamship built IN
America
This is the age OF concrete. Ii anyone had told
Won even a dozen years ago that ocean-gone
steamers would be built OF reinforced concrete you
would have been like the engineer OF the west
ward Ho train. When an Indian lassoed the iron IT,
,ro,s,or he was dragged for a mile The
engineer remarked, "Redman, admire your nerve
but damn your judgment"
And in the waters of the Pacific there lies at
anchor waiting the machinery the hull OF the hrS'
reinforced concrete Soon 1t will be riohs
the waves and defying the submarine Win
t;uber and steel famine, perhaps in the concrete
shin we will find substitute out OF which to ouid
our merchant marine.

Not Quite So Near.

Speaking at a dinner, Representative Frank L.
Greene of Vermont, said that curiosity, does not
always compel one to hang around when some
thing unusual is going on, and told the following
story as example:
Recently witness was called in shooting case,
and questioning eventually established the tact that
he had heard two shots fired in rapid succession
"Where were you, Mr.. Smith" asked the exam
lining lawyer, when the first shot was hred!
"On the sidewalk just about ten feet from the
prisoner answered the witness. -
"Ten feet | see," continued the lawyer. And
where were you Mr. Smith, when the second shot
was fred" .
"As near as | can recall" responded the wit
ness, 81 was two miles down the pike."-Philadel-
phia Evening Telegraph.

His Friend.

BY EDMUND VANCE COOKE
81 had 4 artificial friend" said Uncle Ichabod,
That some folks thought peculiar and some others
thought him odd
He had the most surprisln wig, the which he used
to wear,
And it was so blamed nacheral it grew dandruff in
its hair.
"And then his artificial eye it also had class,
And when he went to bed he allus put it in glass,
But if he'd have pathetic dreams, a-troubin while
he slept
The tumbIer would run over with the tears that
glass eye wept.
"He also had some artificial teeth and I've heard
said
They'd work as well outside him as they did inside
his head.
So all night long them teeth OF his just chewed
and chcwed and chcwcd,
And earnt him money maxim this here 'prc-di-

would be taken to France with the

tary Baker talked so knowingly

tary committeeman. but which he
proved to be surprised over when he
really saw one and had an oppor-
tunity to hear its points discussed.
1t shows-oh, what's the use. gem
tie reader, you know what this
shows. don't ou:
DR.. Charles Eaton. head Of the
national service section OF the
Emergency Fleet Corporation. comes
to the defense of the Shipping
Board with a sturdy article in which
he lays much OF the blame upon the
American people.
He makes il known that the
apathy of the American people is to
blame somewhat for our imperfect
shipping arrangements. and he adds
that our leaning toward pacifism
likewise had much to do with re-
tarding our effective entrance into
the war and our effective handling
of war work after we actually en-
tered the fray. He thinks we have
dallied along too much with our
la Dor problems and have reached a
point now where labor has a strangle
hold upon US and is liable to tighten
il unless we do the bidding of labor.
The article shows a keen study OF
the situation. and particularly the
labor side of it. The doctor Is TO
be commended for his frankness in
telling the American people what is
wrong with them. He perhaps is to
be forgiven for this. We think he
has done some slight service in this
respect. although it hurts to have
him break the news in connection
with this dispute. There are phases
of the doctors article which show
plainly that the war will not end
our trouble. We will have to wade
through some very acute problems
before we get our ship business on
a proper plane. We may have to
survive a gruelling disciplining OF
our laboring men--and we may have
to put our people through a course
of education which will seem to them
like pill-swallowing seems to the
sixth grade youngster.
