Green Of the Garden.
BY EDMUND VANCE COOK


Some folks expiate their crimes
Holing pellets eighteen times;
Some folks pour the rainbow booze
Through their throats till they confuse
Motivation of their shoes;
Some folks break in Jail to tease the warden,
But for me- I'll take my play
In more exciting way,
Growing something green in the garden.
Greatest sport invented yet;
Beats all games of give and get
Oldest one, but always new,
Growing green beneath the blue,
One you never will learn through
And one you ask yourself to pardon.
Ache of back and taste of sweat
Seem to give your life a whet;
Growing something green in the garden.
o, the breath of earth and air,
0, the solace of your care,
AS you nurse the baby seed
Tending to its every need,
Guarding it against the weed,
The poor, old patient weed we're all so hard on,
Which forever, day and night,
Makes its hard and endless fight
Growing, growing green in your garden.
Almost feel as il made
Corn to and grass to blade,
As IT l had rained and shone
In same strange way, all alone,
Till my hollyhocks had blown .....
And my pods were full enough to feed bard on.
Wonder il Infnity /,
has as uuch fun growing me,
Growing something green in His garden!

Russia and Germany.

German statecraft counted on making con-
quered and disrupted Russia an invaluable asset
to the German campaign to achieve world dominion.
Germany hoped to achieve world dominion. Ger
many hoped to get from Russia enormous supplies
OF food, minerals and She hoped to uncover
in the late empire of the Romanoffs vast reser-
voir of war materials. When the Bolsheviki signed
the separate peace treaty of Brest-Litovsk, the
event was pointed out by the official press bureau
in Berlin the greatest achievement of the war
an achievement that guaranteed to Germany not
only powerful aid during the war, but unlimited
field for commercial and industrial exploitation after
the war.
Events have Knocked at Germany's hopes, says
the New York Evening Mail. Far from being
valuable asset, Russia is liability to Germany.
The fall of the authors of Brest-Litovsk is at hand
The collapse of the semblance of government which
the Bosheviki have been endeavoring to bolster up
by force will mean the reputation of the treaty
which they signed. And the reputation of the
treaty of Brest-Litovsk will mean the retreat of
Germany from Russia concurrently with her retreat
from France.
Every American, British, French and Japanese
soldier who is landed Russian soil goes to Russia
to fight the Brest-Ltovsk treaty. The allied forces
in Russia seeking to liberate the Russian people
from the most sweeping instrument of subjection
that signed in the history of the world.
The purpose of the allied endeavors is rousing the
Russian people to action against the gang of politi-
cal tricksters who have betrayed them. From the
east the north and the south allied forces perco
ating into Russia. These forces are stifening the
effectiveness OF the Czecho-Slovak troops; they are
rallying the Russian people themselves in large
numbers to the standard of anti-Boshevism.
The external and internal pressure upon the
Bolsheviki is creating grave problem for Ger
many. The question that Berlin must answer
is, not how Germany achieve the maximum
success in Russia, but how Germany withdraw
from Russia with the minimum of loss.

Master Minds Are Emerging
From Among the Masses
BY the REV. CHARLES sTELzLE.

The labor question will never pe
settled by passing resolutions. Neither
will its solution be hastened by mis-
representation and abuse. Nor yet
will snobbishness or tyranny bring
about a more cordial relationship be-
tween men. No temporary advantage
gained at the sacrifice of q righteous
principle can permanently benefit the
victor.
Men may boast OF their power and
sneer at their helpless opponents. but
just as sure as there is truth in the
world. so sure will come the day of
reckoning. Some there are who seek
to put off the 'evil day." but their
actions are Fastening the time when
justice shall prevail and truth shall
conquer.
Whatever all this may mean to the
employing class, IL means to the work
ingmen that the day has gone by
when the counsel OF the cheap, short
sighted. ignorant blatherskites is 10
be needed.
Statesmanship OF the highest order
in the cause of labor is demanded.
Far beyond the narrow limits OF the
man who has been gowed like bull
rush. or he whose eyes have been
duIIed by the lurid glare of his own
imagination. must be the vision Of
the man who is TO be the prophet
and leader Of the people.
The Washington herald., 1918-08-20

Slowly such master minds are
emerging from among the masses.
Sometimes unappreciated by the very
ones whose battles they are fighting
and whose destinies they are working
out, these men and women must 20
on as did the prophets OF old. until
the hour shall strike that shall pro-
claim the victory OF the common
people.
And yet, workingmen-like most
other men-are Ungrateful TO those
who are sacrificing most, and who are
putting their best into a movement
which is giving utterance TO their own
cry for help.
How often DO they break the hearts
Of their idols. How frequently do
they make unto themselves golden
calves and bow down before them.
while their true leaders are toiling
In the mountain top TO secure for
them that which will be OF permanent
value.
What a responsibility this puts uron
the leader. How close he must live
to the highest ideals. How free he
must be from the petty jeal0usies in
the labor movement Looking not only
upon his own things. nor upon the
interests OF his own craft. but see
inz the need Of the greet body o. toll
ers. he must dare and do for men
the men whose needs are Just as great
as those who are closer TO him.

CAMP DIX SOLDIER
WILLING BLOOD GIVER
Volunteers for TRANSMISSION to Save
Colored Soldier.

Not all of Americas heroes in
khaki are at the fighting front. A
little over a week ago one OF the
physicians at the base hospital at
Camp Dix entered the convalescent
ward In an excited hurry and asked
II any man present would volunteer
to submit himself to a TRANSMISSION
of blood to save the life of a colOred
rookie. Six men were instantly on
their feet. The one finally selected.
because the condition of his blood
was almost ideal for the purpose
was Private Dominica Desimons. a
young New Jersey lad of Italian eX..
traction.
Several days later, while the con-
valescents were attending a rchear-
sal of soldier songs in the base hos
pital Y. NJ. c. A. auditorium a let
ter Of commendation for DesiRlonc.
from Andrew F. Mcbride, assistant
to the commanding officer OF the

Army and Navy News,

Nutrition officers are to be sta

where 1000 or more soldiers are In

since october Of last year the d.
vision Of food and nutrition has been
making surveys Of food conditions
IN the camps Groups Of officers
have gone from camp 10 camp,
studied the food served, how Il was
inspected. stored and prepared, and
have made recommendations which,
upon being carried out. resulted in
many advantageous changes.
Although the principal work OF
these groups was inspection of the
manner Of handling and preparing
food. the visiting officers were able
to give considerable instruction N
the principles of nutrition, the proper
selection OF foods and the construc-
tion Of dietaries TO mess officers,
medical officers and others who were
interested. Detailed personal instruc.
tion was given to the mess personnel
on some Of these topics, as well as
on the various methods Of avoiding
waste. the Importance Of keeping tht
kitchens and mess halls clean and
orderly. and the methods Of judging
and storing food.
Survey parties were instructed "a

and officers were very willing to CO.
operate in making surveys and tc
reduce as much as possible the
waste Of food. One OF the most ef.
fective means adopted for this pur-
pose was introduced at one camp
and followed later at other camps.
At this camp seven companies

Washington fremen have received only negli-
gable increase in pay since the reorganization act
Of June, 1906, and a great number of have act

The report Of the Federal Trade
Commission on profiteering appears to
have caused much discussion over the
nation. There are some phases OF
proflteering which necessarily must
be wiped out during the war. But the
ominous fact is. with respect to many
profiteering industries, that after the
war is over there will be a we'll
planned and effective readjustment
which will leave the gentle art OF
pr0fteering entirely out OF our gov
ernmental catalogue.
The profiteer will be placed with the
highwayman, and this is as 1t should
be. Most any member OF Congress
you meet these days has some legisla-
tive offering being shaped up ''in the
back of his head" to bring forth when
the times comes. The best offerings
will be coagulated into a single effec-
tive law. And the day that law is
passed the country will see OF the
enormous benefits thrust upon which
came out Of the war-and which must
be checked against the awful price we
paid to enter 1t and to win it. But II
will balance a great deal of the money
we paid out for the experience.
