morning the Germans began z n sss
artillery action on the American front
line in the yosges region, sending
over some 200 projectiles from their
mine throwers and thousand heavy
calibre shells. At $40 o'clock the en-
envy opened up strong fire on the
communicating trenches
Reports from two observation sta
lions were that so Germans observed
enterfne their own lines with wounded
but no, reports from the American
front line had been received at this
hour.
It seems probable that the raid
which developed after the artillery
fire was beaten on with casualties to
the enemy.

ATLANTA GETS 1919
BAPTIST CONVENTION

Hot Springs, Ark, May 19.-The
next session of the Southern Baptist
convention will be held in Atlanta,
Ga, beginning Wednesday after the
second Sunday in May 1919, ir ac-
cordance with a report from the COM
mittee on time and place of the next
convention submittde by Dr. Chas. W.

3. C.'Henning of Elizabeth City, N. c..
FL Paso today made strong appeal
for the next meeting, but was de-
feated. Vice President John d. Nell
of George presided.
DR.. Henning of North Carolina re-
ported concerning the movements for
funds for the Roger Williams No.
mortal Church in Washington, d. g.,
that the movement was indorsed by
the body, but no special drive for d
collection be made at the time on ac-
count of demands for the support of
war enterprises.
DIR. A. j. Barton of Texas reported
recounting in presentation of a me-
mortal to President Wilson pledging
the loyal support of Southern Bap-
fists in his conduct of Ameria's part
in the war. The prayers and loyal
sacrificial support of the people for
the government was expressed in un-
measured terms, and DR.. Barton spoke
of the gratitude expressed by the
president in the sentiments.
BY resolution introduced by DR..
E. c. Balbridge of Little Rock, it was
decided to set apart at the next con-
vention an hour and half of session
for the consideration of the conditions
and problems of the country church.
That the emphasis of southern Bap-
lists will be directed as never before
to the development of country and
church in the graces of liberality was
manifestly the determination of the
delegates.

What have we in common to cause
us to rise at the call of common i'm.
pulse and prepare to die for IL common
cause? 1t would be easy to formulate
the characteristic dreams OF the Rus
sian, the Italian, the Belgian, the
Scotch, the Irish or the Portuguese. 1t
would be possible to catch the gleam Of
idealiSm which has given to the French
the glorious title of the Hero Nation"
But none Of these would suffice We
must take a cross section of all Of
them, and dozen more, to formulate
the ideals which course in common
through them all after they have been
united into what we call America For
1t is common ideals which have trans
formed the men and women of all these
races and kindreds and tongues into
our nation, which stands today facing
the grim fact of war, a war to which
no man dare call them in the name Of
race, or language, or previous allegi
ance.
World Citizenship.
The President has placed our inter-
vention in this war upon a plane Of
idealism to which every citizen, of
whatever race, may rally without los
ing hold upon the best traditions Of
the land from which his forefathers
have come. 1t is not the call Of mar
row nationalism, but the call of world
citizenship.
e. S1ur entrance into this war is no con-
cession to the accursed gospel Of force
and fraud. We wish nothing for our
selves, but have resolved Ito quote the
oft quoted words of our President)
that "the world must be made safe for
democracy-and its peace-planned
upon the trusted basis Of political lib
erty." We Scorn the idea that might

History will not ask us or any other
nation, "How big was your army2" but
"How high were your ideals?" Not
"How vast your navy?" but what was

"What thought have you contributed

for the nation than to put its men upo

Mr.. Lane declared that in the United
States there are more than 200, 600 ,0Ot
acres of waste land which can be made
into farms.
Appropriations of only a few millions
are needed to start, said the Secretary,
A bill for this purpose already Is pend
ing in congress-, and President Wilson
Endorsed some Legislation of the kind
in his address at the opening Of the
present session.
The development need not be con-
fined to states containing government
land. said Mr., Lane, citing cases OF
large unusued tracts near Eastern cities
which would supply markets with farm
produce.
Turning to the question Of providing
fuller education through the public
schools. particularly for the foreign
born, Secretary Lane said:
Our war experience has taught US,
among many things, the value of u
strong national spirit, the vital impor-
lance of national ideals, the impotence
Of ignorance, the dependence OF this
modern world upon skilled men and Or
gahizing ability, the need for and the
possibilities that lie in the extension Of
cooperative effort OF all kinds.
There can be neither national unity
in ideals or In purpose unless there Is
some common method of communica-
ton through which may be conveyed
the thought OF the nation. All Ameri-
rams must BIO taught TO read and write
and think in one language; this is a
primary condition to taas growth which
all nations expect of Us and which we
