MAKING PEOPLE THINK
(By Raymond S. Spears of The
Vigilantes.)

A hundred campaigns are being
waged merely to bring certain facts
tc the minds of people, and then to
lpake the people think about them.
Our work Is to bring home to every
enc the vital interest that the least,
farthest, most isolated individual has
in the vast world-conflict which is
now raging-the fight of Right to ov-
clwhelm the votaries OF Might.
We appeal to those who, like our
selves, work for living; we appeal
TO those who, like ourselves. seek
some way Of joining in the task OF
Civilization; we all have our particu-
lar tasks.
II a man can caulk a shanty-boat
he can and should work in one OF the
great ship-yards; if man can run
machine lathe, he can and should be
working on war work, say on the bar
,fe!s OF army rifles; IL man can
weld an ak, he can and should be
telling spruce for aeroplanes, timber
for ships, or other direct or indirect
war work; If a man has spent his life
learning to write or to draw pictures
CT to make picture plays, he can and
should use what ability he had to
strike good blow oft repeated some
where against Prussiasm.
Whatever skill man has there is
some place where he can, II he will
use 1t to add to the united power OF
our nation, and Of the Allied nations
against the beast, Hun. ANY man
having strength, skill, knowledge. or
inspiration which he does not use for
Dis country now is a Stacker, and no
man knows whether or not the riyet
that he drives, the bullet that he
rioulds, the thought that he has viii,

the savagery which the Kaiser has
turned loose upon the world. No

REST STATIONS FOR
AMERICAN BOYS In FRANCE

The Red Cross Director of Military
Affairs in France reports that the
first rest station to open on the Amer
lean lines of communication is ready
and work has already started. The
second will be open soon, and others
are in process of construction.
"The stations are arranged to I'M
prove travelling conditions for the
American soldier, to supply him be-
tween trains and during long waits
With comfortable place in which to
rest, write letters, read, and eat" the
report states. Such institutions have
been found by the British and French
armies to be not only the soldiers due
but a powerful means in sustaining
their morale. The men have enough
dlscomforts in any case, and to elm
mate them wherever possible is es-
sentially Red Cross work.
I'VE have been operating an Ameri-
can canteen for the benefit of a Unit
ed States Army Air Service camp and
are now serving 1880 men per day. It

The lists OF Casualties are growing
longer-alnosJ a luii column Of the
Times Union was required yesterday
to hold the nainos Of the killed,
wounded, aud those who died at the
'front.'. And the pilaDle thing is that
the publication oil these lists gives no
information, but Only causes deep
sorrow and anxiety in many parts OF
the country. Only the names are
given, the addresses being withheld.
Patrick Ryan" Is listed as wounded,
and In each of the homes of scores
OF Patrick Ryans all over the country
there Is grief and awful uncertainty
lest the husband and father of that
particular home Is the one who Ia
lying wounded. Thus every casualty
multiplies its horrors many fold, and
brings sorrow TO many homes instead
OF to one. We do not question the
wisdom of the regulation that is re-
sponsible for this plan, because we
do not question anything at this time
those In authority are doing; but we
believe that unless the addresses are
given the names also should be with
held. 1t looks like useless infiction
OF suffering to bring sorrow and
heart-rending suspense into perhaps
q hundred homes when only one
should be affected.

Atlanta, Ca, April lc.-Unexampled
activity on the part Of all the bust
ness men Of the nation in behalf Of
the Third Liberty Loan is reported
from practically every city and town
in the Sixth Federal Reserve Dis
trict. Nothing like the self-sacrifce on
the part OF the men who really do
things n their communities has been
seer before in equal measure.
Local comrIittao5 are all working
at maximum at the present time,
with scores and hundreds Of men ard
women wearing the volunteer worker
button of the present campaign. Bust
ness has been passed up for the pres
cnt. Bankers, manufacturers, mer-
chants, lawyers, and in fact every
type OF business and professional man
is bending every effort to subscribe
tho required amount of the present
loan in the least possible time.
The man who is at his desk on his
own private affairs four hours a dav
is the exception this month. Many men
are devoting their entire time. The
only people who can attend to their
town business exclusively these days
aud not be considered slackers are
those whose business has a direct and
vital bearing on the business of the
war.
The expression Of patriotism which
Is thus being evidenced has done
more towards arousing the people of
this district from their lethargy to-
ward the war than the results of the
battle In Picardy which Is now going
or, or any other single factor. The
people have got the idea of the war
and It's necessities more firmly fixed
IN their minds today than ever be-
fore.
The outlook is bright, not only for
the maximum success OF the third
loan, but more especially for the car
rylng on of the war in all its phases
in the near future with a solid citi-
zenship behind every move.

GERMAN SCHOOL CHILDREN
BECOMING UNRULY

A recently published report OF the
United States Bureau of Education
makes the following statement:
lowing to the lack Of proper sur
yeilIance, as we'll as to certain psy-
Geological causes, school children IN
Germany have become, during the
war unusually mischievous and un-
ruly This condition has been reported
to the German educational men by
various localities, and in some dis
tricts remedial measures Of consider
able severity have already been TAX
en-"
In Berlin school authorities have
requested that orders be given to tho
police and other guardians of law
and order to take energetic measures
on their own initiative against all
shamelessness, mischief, and rough
ness on the part Of children. The res
oluiion adopted by the Berlin school
authorities reads: I'm view Of the
fact that numerous cases, mentioned
at this meeting, have proved that the
behavior of school children is becom.
Ing increasingly bad, we request that
orders shall be given to prevent any
restriction of the lawful right Of pun
ishment which belongs to the teacher.
and to see that the school police In
tervene much more speedily and ener-
getically."

MEETING THE FOOD
PROBLEM IN PORTO RICO

The Porto Rico Division Of the
Noman's Committee Of the Council Of
National Defense states that the WORK
to be done there in connection with
the existing federal organization is Of
vital Importance. The division is In
process of being organized, and fol-
tine present will work along lines laid
down by the Porto Rican Bureau OF
Education.
This Bureau has been at work on
food production and home economics
for the past two years. The war Is
|intensifying the work already begun
and Is making evident the need for
increased education along productive
and economic lines.
Porto Rico has problems peculiar to
its geography that make the expert
ence Of other parts of the country of
little value. The staple foodstuffs-
beans and rice-must be imported.
With the present shortage of ships,
imports become first costly and final
ly impossible. The problem Of the
Home Economics and Food Produc-
ton Division of the Federal Bureau
of Education has been to stimulate
tho planting Of beans and to procure
substitutes for rice.
Kitchen gardens with rotation of
crops is the plan by which Porto Rico
Is tc be made self-supporting. On &C.
count Of its warm, damp climate, con-
seryation is difficult and dehydrating
almost impossible. Sugar, coffee, and
tobacco, all grown on the island, are
not in available shape for food. II
ships are not provided for transport
icg these crops, they will not even
be Of use to secure credit for imports
on which the Porto Ricans have hith-
erto subsisted.
Porto Rico has the distinction of
supplying its quota of troops without
recourse to the draft. When the call
came so many men volunteered that
no CONSUMPTION was necessary.
