Our Responsibilities.

We do not assume our respon-
sibilities, either as citizens OF
Christians. They are thrust up
on US, and it is our duty to face
them and live up TO them.
When we profess to be Chris
tians we promise to live up to
certain principles exemplified in
the life of Christ. After this we
have no choice. We either d. as
we have promised, or we fail to
live up to those obligations.
The same is true of citizenship.
A good citizen accepts certain
privileges from his government.
He does not ask, What can
do for my country" The gov,
ernment makes perfectly clear tc
him the obligations of good citi-
zenship, and he simply fulflls
these obligations.
The newspapers at this time OF
our national crisis are trying in
every way possible and with sin
cere desire to help the country to
emphasize the essentials of good
citizenship. They are printing
the requests and speeches of the
president, and the advice of pro-
minent men regarding subjects
Of national interest. There is no
reason then. for any citizen to be
in doubt concerning his RESPONSE
bilities.-Dr. John Stuart Banks.

Secretary Baker has promised
more speed, so we take it that he
has not heretofore been func-
tioning at top speed. 1t took a
trip to Europe to establish a con-
victIon which should have found
firm lodgment in Bakers mind
the day he took his oath Of office
as Secretary, March 9, 1916.
What will be the toll in lives for
two dilatcry years? Compare
Baker with Garrison, whose no
tions of preparedness and speed
were ''hysterical," and resulted
in his re etirement, and then place
the blame.

A Leaf from Our Tariff
History.

1t will be surprising to many
people to learn that agitation in
favor of an American dyestuffs
industry was as active IS years
ago as it is today. and that the
reasons urged in behalf of the es-
tablishment of such an industry
were much the same then as they
are now.
In October, 1881, five hundred
men representing thirteen differ
ent states met in the city of New
York to consider plans for fos-
tering chemical and other indus
tries. At the conclusion of the
convention, vOluminous reports
were made and published setting
forth industrial conditions, and
suggesting plans by which AM
erica could be made Independent
of European countries in secur-
ing supplies of many common
necessities. That portion of the
report which relates to chemicals
sets forth the fact that in the
early history of the country little
attention had been given to chem.
ical products. and that, during
the War of 1912, the United
States suffered severely because
Of its dependence upon foreign
products. During the war, Am
erican production made some pro
