were the gates OF death so thronged
as in your day and mine-so
thronged by young heroic souls
who by thousands and thousands,
a great host have laid down their
young lives for their country, for
humanity, that there might be a
: better world. These immatured
lives thus cut short-are they vast
ed? How shall we measure a life9
BY the lapse Of time? by the pass
ing Of days, mortal years? Is not
the life of man to be measured other
ways than the life Of dumb beast?
Is not high achievement, in art, sci
ence, social progress more signitl-
cant than the turning Of the hands
over the face Of the clock? Shall
not human life be measured by
progress, by events? Has not that
soul lived a life who has been of
service to his fellow man? Events,
deeds. achievement sacrifice, serv-
ice these mark the man.
So we cannot say Of these young
martyrs on humanity's shrine that
they have thrown their lives away,
that their lives are wasted Rather
they have lived and they still live.
They who watch natures processes
cannot believe well in the extinc-
ton Of being: such powers as they
possessed must be Of avail else
where. He that overcometh shall
be pillar in the temple Of Coda
pillar for supporting the super
structural strong soul for respon-
sibility in The other Kingdom Of
God.
This young soul passed in the
service of her country as truly as
one in the trenches. Her life was
offered in the path Of duty TO her
country. She made her services so
invaluable in Washington that re-
quest was sent to Somerset that she
might be freed from her teaching
engagement to assist in the govern
ment work. II was granted. and |
then while serving faithfully her
country she was called 10 higher
and greater service. Such lives are
never ended. They continue 10 |
bless this world, even though their
souls have passed on TO a higher
and better world.

LUCY HOLIDAY DIES IN
WASHINGTON

The sad news that Lucy Holiday
had passed away in Washington on
Wednesday Of last week brought a
pang OF heartfelt sorrow TO her
many friends in Berea and the sur
rounding country where she was so
well and favorably known. Her
death followed a ten-day battle with
influenza and double pneumonia.
Her father reached her bedside,
six hours before her death, but her
sister, Della, arrived too late to see
her alive.
They accompanied her body on the
journey from Washington to Berea.
Mrs. Holiday and Misses Sarah and
Lenora came from their home in
Hazard and arrived in Berea with
the other members of the family on
the midnight train, Friday. Miss
Susie, who is in Red Cross training
at Rochester, N. Y, was i'll with in
fluenza and unable to be present at
the funeral, but she is now recov-
ering.
The Holiday family were resi-
dents Of Berea for quite a number
Of years, the father having moved
here from Perry County in order
to educate his children in Berea
College.
Miss Lucy was brilliant student
and always ranked high in her class
work. Her graduation in 1915 with
the Bachelor OF Arts degree was the
browning reward Of her years OF
faithful study in the College course.
Following her graduation she
taught for three years in the Som
erset High School, where she won
the confidence and esteem, not only
of her scholars, but of all who knew
her.
Last summer she took six weeks
course in Wabash College as a prep
aration for her work in the Ord
nance Department in Washington
II was in this department OF Gov
eminent Service that she contracted
the disease which resulted in her
death. In a very true sense she
laid her young life upon the altar
of her country, and died as she had
so faithfully lived, for the welfare
OF others.
Her funeral was conducted by
DR.. b. Ii. Roberts at the Berea Gem
etery, on Saturday afternoon, at 3
o'clock.
President Frost in very tender and
appropriate words spoke on behalf
Of Berea College, and as a personal
friend Of the family.
Miss Margaret Dizney spoke as a
representative Of the Glass OF 1915,
and in well chosen words referred
TO the sterling qualities possessed
by Miss Lucy as friend. student
and as a Christian.
Prof. Jas. r. Robertson led in the
opening prayer at the grave. Sew
eral hymn selections were sung by
a choir composed Of College work
ers and other friends. Rev. Howard
Hudson led in the closing prayer.
Following is a tribute TO the mem
DRY Of Miss Holiday as given by
Miss COrwin, with whom Miss Lucy
had long been associated in library
work.
My earliest recollections OF Lucy
Holiday goes back 10 the time when,
still child, she assisted her father
in the store he kept on the center
Of Main street. She was such a lit
Tie girl, but she performed her du-
ties with such understanding, such
courtesy and executive ability that

| was greatly impressed. More than
once | went to buy something at
Mr.. Holidays rather than any other
place because | wanted to give my
self the pleasure of watching the
rapid movements, of listening TO the
rich, beautiful voice, and the cor
rect speech of this remarkable
child.
When she was about fourteen
years old, she became a member Of
the library staff, and at the age Of
fifteen we assigned her to special
work in the catalOg room that has
never, before or since, been done by
anyone else at that age, or even
three or four years older. She kept
the official business record Of the
books that are added to the library,
for seven years, and page after page,
the record Of several thousand
| books, is covered with her beauti-
full penmanship. As we always use
the most permanent ink that can be
obtained. these records, il spared
accident, will last a century, per-
haps 200 years, perhaps longer. And
in the catalog are hundreds OF cards
that are the result Of her long and
patient hours.
Lucy's work was always charac-
terized by a certain beauty and fin
ish. a perfection in thought and ex-
ecutiOn that is very rare.
She had scholarly mind, a keen
wit, a mind stored with literature,
from which she quoted freely even
in ordinary conversation. One Of
the girls in school at present knew
Lucy in Somerset and speaks with
admiration Of her playing and sing
ing. Her voice, both in speaking and
singing had cultural quality,
which gave it great charm. An
other charm, which we shall always
remember. was her courtesy: that
bright, responsive, courteous man
ner always won friends for her.
The Sunday-school, the Christian
Endeavor and the Young Women's
Christian Association remember her
religious activities; Lucy was an
earnest Christian and loved all the
phases Of church work.
When she went to Somerset 10 |
teach after her graduation in 1915. |
her first letters were full OF enthu-
siasm about the C. f. society, which
she had just organized there.
She was anxious for the spiritual
uplift Of her pupils and often talked |
TO me about the progress OF some
OF them and the encouragement she
felt about others. And | was told
last night by her father that in
Washington she had put herself in
to the church life there in the same
whole-hearted way.
IL is a blessed thing TO know this
and TO believe that her joyous con-
secration has only been transferred
TO larger fields.
When the news came TO us OF her
passing on, one OF the library girls
said, Zone thing is sure about Lucy:
she was ready 10 go" And | be-
lieve we can rejoice in the hope
that Of her ii is true, Eye hath not
seen, nor ear heard, neither have
entered into the heart OF man, the
things which God hath prepared for
them that love him.
In his remarks DR.. Roberts
spoke as follows:
The procession Of souls passing
through the vast space between
worlds is never ending procession
always some are entering through
-he gates Of life; always some are
passing through the gates Of death.
Never in the history Of the world

REASONS FOR WAR PROHIBITION
Adapted From Mass. War Prohibi-
tion Campaign Report
4. IL Coal Will Win the War

| 4. III toai VIII WIN the war
Coal miners in dry territory pro-
duce from 10 TO % per cent more
coal than those in wet territory.
Walter r. Ballinger estimates that
a 20 TO II per cent increase in an
thracite and bituminous coal would
yield over 6O.OO0O00 tons-the extra
amount Mr.. Garfield says we must
have 10 ward of disaster.
War Prohibition means more coal.
u. 5. bituminous coal operators say
the Nation must choose between
coal and booze"
2. II Food will Win the War
The cessation Of brewing" says
Mr.. Hoover. would effect a saving
in grain II approximately 3,i50,OO0
bushels a month. from a nutritive
point Of view"
That is more than enough TO sup
ply the energy requirements for a
year Of i,SS00OO men-almost enough
TO supply our present army both
here and abroad
8. II Transportation will Win the
War
In 1912, the Anheuser-Busch
Brewing German owned.
the Kaiser himself said to be the
largest stockholder-advertised that
It used $4,000 cars a year.
Several hundred thousand cars a
year are needed to keep the liquor
business in this country going.
4. II Ships Will Win the War
Dan Polling says he saw surgical
dressings give out at the front. Ship
space was lacking to bring them
across.
Vet there were withdrawn for ex.
port, March. 1918, i.6i7 .739 gallons
Of whiskey. Which will II be
whiskey or surgical dressings?
5. II Labor Will Win the War
or $1,000 brewery workers in the
u. s. $4,000 are carpenters, cleo
tricians. machinists. etc, all so
much needed in war industries.
The Authorization Manual OF
1916. declares the u. s. Statistical
Abstract shows 100000 farmers are
raising hops, barley. rice and corn
for brewing.
We need these laborers-either 20
fight or TO do useful work.
g. II Labor will Strike for Beer
But will they do SO? They have
not done so in Indiana. in Michigan,
in New Hampshire, so recently gone
dry. On the contrary. they are do
ing more and better work.
Secretary Daniels has repeatedly .
testified that closing saloons has
greatly increased the Navy output.
Labor yields to none in patriotism.
War Prohibition means the great
essential, man power-rem0ved from
the great n-essential-beer.
7. II Money Will Win the War
The Nations Annual Drink Bill ia
over two billion. Its revenue is only
one-eighth that much.
Prof. Irving Fisher declares Pro-
will add ten per cent TO our
efficiency, or s2.2O0,GOO.O00 30 our
annual income. Four billion saved
a year is a big Liberty Loan.

Occupy Your Proper Place.

It's continuous confidence In the
Ideal of your own making that compels
success, observes an educator. Some
men never question the possibility of
defeat. They may have set-backs but
not defeats. They are right and know
themselves to be right. The rest of
the world may be ranged against them
for all they care. They have a mis-
sion and nothing short Of it will sat

to the bar and said to him:
"tOh, George, come up on deck and
enjoy the scenery. The hills and woods
are just beautiful
"After swallowing his ninth beer,
George growled, Jaw, what do care
