seem to be always eating. eating, eat ing. I cannot recall single stroll around the deck, al any hour of day or night. when l did not see somebody eating and drinking. The overerowd- ed peasants on the deck below and the saloon passengers above are alike in this that they are continuaAyy pro- ducing from their stores some sort of food to be eaten with the ever present tea.
 Still, one need not always study his fellow passengers. There is the scenery of the shore, which, further down, includes the villages of the va rlous Tartar tribes, with their round houses that look like haystacks; and far reaches of rolling meadow land and wheat fields; and hills and forests, and sand dunes and towns and cities, with the wild ducks and geese flying between.
 Then there is the incessant pro- cession of boat life; 1000 steamships regularly ply upon the Volga Big barges in groups of five or six, with half a dozen small boats clustered like barnacles behind, are lowed by byside- wheel tugs. Fishing craft, manned by Karmacks and other ua- tives, glide by or are passed at anchor. From the shore cemes the sound of church bells, made musical by travel ing over the water

THE STORY INDICTMENT.

Not Q little attention has been aroused by the indictment of Mrs. William Cummings Story on the charge of grand larceny. and includ ing therein her two sons. This may have been increased to a large ex- tent by the prominence of the accused since she has been the president gen. cral of the Daughters of the Ameri- can Revolution and taken an equal- ly leading part fh other activities. But t is especially so because it has to. do with the alleged use of funds raised for definite purpose for the pay- ment of those who have been involved in the work of raising or administer ing them.
 It is not claimed that any of the money has resulted to the benefit of Mrs. Story personally, but that in so- liciting funds for the National Elmer gency Relief society, of which she was the president. that a man named Brown has been given 50 per cent. of the money which he collected as a solicitor of the organization. and that of this amount taken out by Brown. 5r given to him. there was a fifth which was given to Mrs Story's son.
 In connection with the raising of funds most people hesitate to give their assistance because of fear that this very thing will happen. that their money will not be used for the pur- pose donated and that those whom it is desired to aid will never see but a small portion of what is given. The disclosure is therefore serious mat ter and one which needs to be cleared up at the earliest possible moment.

 It is worthy of note in this cennec- tion that the state of Illinois is plan ming to spend total of ST 100000 for this kind of work. that New York state will make an outlay of only three million less for a like purpose. that ten million apiece will be spent in Oregon and California, that New Jer- sey will put eight million into road improvement and that Ohio, Michi- gan, Florida. Tennessee and North and South Carolina will spend anywhere from three to seven million apiece. Topping the whole is West Virginia with million more than Illinois, and the government itself win aid in the work to the extent Of more than If million.
 It is quite evident that the good roaa movement has demonstrated the worth 0. the outlay wherever 1t has been properly undertaken and it is a healthy sign that there is a growing tendency for permanent roadbeds.

THE WAR SAYINGS EFFORT.

The campaign in behalf of the war savings stamps, the extension of the participation in tlse financial support of the government in the conduct of the war, has ended. It has been car ried on with great thoroushness and determination by the organization which is in charge of the raising of two billion dollars in this manner Just what the resuhs are 1t will proba hly require several days to determine, but there is good reason to believe that q much greater number of people have been brought to the realization of the responsibility which rests upon the individuals shoulders, because of the campaign and the fact that they have pledged their support in this manner. than would otherwise have been the case
 It is a well known fact that because person is actually taking part in such an undertaking he manifests much more interest than when he stands by and watches others do. By participating he realizes tkat he is actually part of the organization and iC 41Abhlg bEIOIIlCS eager to QO ms full duty whereas in the past he may have been only lukewarm. That this will prove to be the case in this war savings effort there are good reasons to believe. There are a great many who have gone their limit in their pledges, others have not. Some have not taken to the idea of pledging for the future but have done so that they may be enrolled. and it is reasonable 10 believe that they will be found do- ing much more than they have prom Led. The plan. which has been put into operation through the excellent service of the many solicitors shouId and undoubtedly will prove to be a much greater success in the end than the pledges as totaled at this time in- dicate. It will grow greater as it de- ve!ops and people become still more interested. The solicitors have done their part. now the people must dc theirs.

----777--7=-=-===777=== REpEEMING GARBAGE.

When it comes to the elimination Of waste it is quite evident that the peo- ple of this country have as yet only begun to scratch the surface. We have indulged in extravaganza So long that it has become a habit and one which has grown upon us. Thus the opportunities for stopping it are to be found in great number and everyone can easily find chance to participate therein
 The people of the country have been asked to cut down on the use of es- sentials and there has been a ready response. It may not meet all expec- tations but good results are already being obtained therefrom. Tn further ing the movement the United States food administration is urging the util- ization of garbage that what is re- deemabie therefrom may be saved. It is well understood that large quanti ties of garbage are already turned to excellent results in the raising of pigs, and pork production is one of the great needs of the country, but it is fully understood that all garbage IS not DIE 1OOu anu III lIlS COnIlSCIlOfl the food administration is pointing out the fact that in a ton of gar- bage, kitchen and table refuse when kept separately. there is sufficient slycerine to make the explosive charge for fourteen 5 millimeter shells, enough fatty acid to manufac- ture 75 pounds of soap. fertilizer ele- rnents sufficient to grow eight bush els of wheat and a score of other val uable materials essential in the man. facture of munitions.
 The number of large cities where there is such utilization is but slightly larger than the number where no at tention is paid to such material ex- cept to throw it away and the value Of the loss sustained is estimated at five million 8 year. That wouldn't float a very big issue of war bonds but ii is certainly worth saving.

The days of the ggod roads are by no means passing.

TARRYING BY THE STUFF

The man in kahki holds the cen ter of the stage today. and is likely to do so for an indefinite period. We salute the soldier of any rank. The time has come when every Ameri- can of military age not in one of Uncle Sam's uniforms of some varie- ty or other must give a reason why When peace is finally declared, we shall continue to give due respect to those who fought it out in arms in the worlds supreme crisis. The celebration when the boys come home" will be worth seeing. AS the soldier had things much his own way in the years following our Civil war so it is likely to prove after the present crisis. s-r
 But there must be no underrat- ing of civilians, who have fought without guns. No decorations will be pinned on their breasts; they have not been mentioned in dispatches. Yet, they have helped to win the war, too. They are entitled to T share of the honors. The ancient rule Of King David is fair one: AS his part is that goeth down to the battle, so shall his part be that tarrieth by the stuff"

STILL FIGHTING CHILD LABOR.

Fully in accord with what was ex- pected is the step which has been taken to secure new federal legisla- ,tion in regard to child labor by the presentation of two bills in the sen ate which have been drawn with the idea of meeting the unconstitutional features of the law which was recent ly declared null and void by the United
 States supreme court.
 Because of the supreme court de- Cision it does not mean that the effort to bring about an improvement in the conditions which surround child labor in certain sections of the country is going to be abandoned. On the other hand it calls for the putting forth of still greater efforts than have been made in the past. for the conditions are such that they ought to be changed and the improvement cannot be brought about any too soon.
 Control of child labor through the federal taxation of such articles as
 are made by it is proposed in one of
 the bills. This would serve to in
 crease the price of such goods so
 that the advantage of the low prices 1 paid children in connection with such work would be overcome and possibly
 a preference created for goods not so
 manufactured. In the other bill it is
 proposed that the interstate shipment | of merchandise made by such labor | be restricted in the same manner that I liquor shipments are controlled under
 the Webb Kenyon bill. In presenting g 1 these bills the position is taken that
 what can be done constitutionally for the betterment of conditions in one direction can be done in others, and
 inasmuch as the movement has been
 started to protect the children there is 1 no better time to see it through.

It requires no ordinary courage to send the boys off with smiles and then go back to the racking worry of the long months of war.

 Only gradually has the average citizen come to appreciate the mag nitude of the present conflict. This is no war between armies. or even between nations alone, but between radically different ideals of human civilization. One ideal or the other is doomed.
