shall never forget how smartly and
steadily they marched past the Palace
of Westminster, while the Union Jack
foated over the Victoria Tower, en-
folded with the Stars and Stripes. None
would suggest that those bronzed and
keen faced young crusaders were
other than hardy, sober and eager for
the fray. They stepped out bravely,
and have never seen one of them the
worse for liquor. Of course, | am not

our comrades, as we regard them, com
ing as they did from so great dis
tance, and unfamiliar as they could
not but be with the hellfre war in the
trenches, may have been little apt
to "talk big'-as think you put it
te our fellows who had been playfel-
lows with death for months Much
the same thing was said of our own
colonials when they first arrived; but
day or two confronting the Germans
usually puts things on sound foot
ing.
Two Important Problems
There are two problems to be solved.
The first is thirst in the trenches The
second is thirst when on leave. Now
1t Is easy eoough to say that soldiers
should fight this war on cold water. /

pared them on cold water. ! am writ

but not on cold water. 1t is coffee that
is doing lt-hot coffee
The question is how to get hot coffee
into the trenches. Behind the lines, the
guild manages it, to some extent. But
the trenches are front line, not behind
the line, and to boil coffee in the
trenches takes trouble, is out Of gear
with military traditions and may be
actually impossible. l hate the idea of
serving rum ration to our British
lads. agree with Grenfcll, Of Labrador,
that even in the Arctic Circle, there
is no REAP warmth IN a rum ration
quite the contrary. But the rum ration
is convenient to serve. II is carefully
limited in amount. And that is why
it continues iii many regiments. When
the Germans advance in mass forma =
ton, they arc often doped with ether
and other nerve shattering drugs.
Thank Heaven, the Allies do not re-
quire such poisoned courage!
Problem of Soldiers On Leave
Secondly, we have the soldier on
leave. He may be at some port He
may be stranded at some station, wait
ilg for train. 1t is at such times
that he should remember Lord kitch-
ener's famous and outspokcn warning
to beware of Wine and women. The

Moscow, April 26, ASSOCIATED
Press. )--Foreign Minister Tchitche-

in Moscow of the UUnitUedUUUUU
in Moscow of the United States, Eng
land, and France, requesting the
speedy recall of their Consuls at
Vladivostok and an investigation of
their alleged participation in nego-

so asked to define their attitude to-

plain what the Minister aNudes to as

M. Tchitcherin submitted copies of

son during the war crisis. Represen-
tative Price will point out that he
has loyalty supported the Admins
tration in everything President Will
son has asked in the way of win

ed his views on the volunteer system
and voted for the Selectiye Draft
law. He was instrumental, in con-
junction with Representatives Harri-
son and Flood, of Virginia, in obtain
ing from Provost Marshal General
Crowder an order placing all bona
fide farmers and farm laborers at the
foot of Glass Al, so that they will be
the last to be taken into the service
under the present call. This order of
General Crowder's, while not going
as far as the Marylander desired, will
have the effect of keeping on the
farms to help plant this years crops

wise would have been taken into the
service during the planting season.
Since being in Congress Mr.. Price
has changed his views on the prohi-
bition question. He voted for the
Webb-Kenyon resolution, submitting
to the States an amendment to the
Federal Constitution for nationwide
temperance.
The entire Maryland delegation in
the House will be candidates for re-
nomination and reelection, and Mes
srs. Price and Linthicum so far are
the only members who have opposi-
ton within their own parties, al
though opposition is likely in the
general election. While no efforts
have been made along this line, it is
doubtful if truce can be arranged
between the Democrats and Repub-
licaDs in Maryland in regard to can
didates for Congress as has been
done in some of the Western States
on account of the war. The war and
the question whether the present
members have Loyalty supported the

overshadowing issues in the cam
paign. Every member of the Mary
land delegation in the House so far
has supported the Administration S

Is Music A Necessity
Or A Luxury!

If music is q luxury, it could be
dispensed with without serious in
convenience. Whether it is neces-
sity or not is a matter of definition.
If we mean by the necessities OF
life just what is required to keep
life in the body, then handful of
rice or corn each day will satisfy the
conditions. Far more important are
the mental and moral necessities.
The necessities of life are those
things which make man feel in har-
mony with his environment. To the
pioneer, the necessities of life were
almost entirely physical. His men
tai necessities were few. But we
have been progressing, and for one
of our centres of civilization to re-

turn to the manner of life of the
American pioneer would seem almost
like relapse into barbarism. The
telephone, telegraph, locomotive, ETC.,
were not necessities to our forefath-
ers because they were unknown. The
necessities of life are those things
which are required to satisfy mans
mental and spiritual wants no less
than his physical wants. View from
this standpoint, which is the only one
possessing the elements of sanity,
will anyone maintain that music is
not a necessity in our country?
1t is impossible in this age to limit
the necessities of people to their
physical wants. Mans higher ma
ture demands food. The lack of it
causes suffering no less keen than
the lack of physical supply. OF all

the agencies which tend to tighten
the burden of toll, none is so potent
as music. The church feels that it
is a necessity. Were it not, it would
on the contrary, more is made of it
from year to year. No one will ques-
ton it's necessity in time of war. We
might exist without music, but to
live without it, as we understand
life today, would be impossible.

Who could desire peace more than

for the sake of peace? Was it not in
July, 1914, we, the Allies, did every

no longer peace, if we were compelled d
to wage war, it is because it was neces-
sary, come what may, to oppose the

aggression of the vandals and conquer

them, without guarantees, without as
