One Unchanged Purpose
Newark Times1

The president was never happier in
speech, never more visibly inspired
by the greatness of his subject, never
more forceful and he never spoke
with q surer sanction of eternal right
and justice than in his brief but
wonderful Fourth of July address
to that small audience assembled up
on the slopes of Mount Vernon yes
terday, an audience which. with pc
culiar appropriateness, was repre-
sentative of this nation and of the
nations united with us in the war
against the enemies of civilization.
Mount Vernon is the holiest of our
holy places; it is, as the president
said. a "quiet place of old counsel"
for there Gin those great days long
ago." General Washington held lei
surely conference with the men who
were to be associated with him in
the creation of a nation. 1t was
something more than a poetic fancy
of Mr.. Wilson that the air of that
place carried with "a peculiar kind
ness" the accents of the principles
he proclaimed. For again, not only
from those slopes where the presi-
dent stood but from every hill and
plain and valley in this great land
and in the lands of all the Allies,
men see the world with the light
of the future upon it," their modern
ewes are again turned away from a
mast which men of liberated spirits
can no longer endure" 1t is the old
struggle, the old purpose.

VICTORY

TFrom Leslie's Weekly.1
7 could have prayed for peace be-
fore l heard
OF little children lifted high in
jest,
A sword point through the white
still pulsing breast.
And women foully held-then anger
stirred
And all my soul rose up; since this
could be
I'd only pray to God for Victory.
I could have waited for my sons to
turn
Same home; but foul and gas out
pouring shell,
And liquid fire. and fendishness
of hell,
Set all my blood afiame and now 1
With holy zest, whate'er the cost
If soon or late God send us Vic
tory.
I could have weighed new days by
old ideals
Had l not known of death that
hurtling went
Beneath the waves to smite the
innocent;
But knowing ALL my startled spirit
reels,
Then springs to ask: What will
Ye, Lord, of me
That to our arms may come sure
Victory" L. M. Thornton.

ing on security of which you furnish
a part.
Now as to the other lesson. There
are people in our city who are not
in tune with the throbbing war
spirit. They are men from countries
with which we are at war and they
are men from countries which are
not in the war, but whose thoughts
are of themselves. They are dwell
ing where they are not called for
military service; where they are
earning more money and living bet
ter than ever before in their lives.
And yet there are constant reports
of evasion of food regulations; of
sneers; of black looks at the loyal.
They must be taught more respect.
The critical period of the war is
coming. There must be no element
here, whether Austrian or German.
Russian or man from submerged
country, not ready to doff his hat
when the flag goes by, whether the
motive be love, respect or fear. This
is the second lesson and it is plainly
expressed.

"HE beneficial effects of camp
training on drafted men are now
pretty generally recognized.
They are exemplified, we are told by
Captain Edward ]. Abbott, of Camp
Grant, by his own regiment. nick
named THE Melting Pot" because it
takes "the pale, sallow striplings, the
|self-indulgent weaklings whose
wills were like rubber tubes bending
in The line of least resistance" and
melts them together, toughening
them as the blast toughens the steel
in the crucible. The commanding
officer of The Melting Pot Regi-
ment," Colonel Charles II. Howland,
was formerly commandant of the
Pacific branch United States dis
ciplinary barracks and is an expert
in the art of making soldiers out of
unpromising material, but his meth
DDS and his results are only typical
of those seen in the camps in all
parts of the United States-'re-en
forcement of the minds and bodies of
the men," as Captain Abbott ex-
lpresses it. He writes, in the Amer
lean Journal of Clinical Medicine
(Chicago, May):
emption boards, to the best of their
ability, chose men whom they
thought physically fit. The selectives.
in the main, were good representa-
tives of the manhood that cities and
the piping times of peace breed.
"Those who saw the motley crowd
detrain at Camp Grant and pant

racks scarcely will recognize the
same men in the sturdy soldier

twenty-mile march in severest wiE

trenches, march through mud. slush
and rain, return to the barracks and
next day present the most convinc-
ing proof of efficient training, the
lowest sick-call of months.

ing were purely sanitary. Their solu-
tions were found in the enforcement
of reasonable sanitary regulations.

ARMY LIFE IMPROVING HEALTH
From the Literary Digest

the men a sixth sense-the sanitary
sense Until one comes into con-
tact with a large body of men sep
arated from feminine influence and
the social restraints of civilized life,
one does not realize how quickly the
savage comes to the surface. No one
who has not been at the inception
of a camp can conceive of the enor-
nous task facing the company and
regimental organizers. The men en-
ter upon a new world-'the old
things have become new A new
mental attitude must be taken, or,
rather, must be instilled into the
men.
AN analysis of the mental atti-
tude of the selectives will reveal
chaos. The whole edifice of their
lives has crumbled, and for a more
or less brief period they busy them
selves in sadly contemplating the
ruins of their hopes and take a mel
.ancholy pleasure in nursing their
fears
The predominant physical ele-
ment is fear. Fear does not mean
cowardice-possibly a better term
would be apprehension which has
its inception in the lack of knowl-
edge of present duties and the fac
ing OF the unknown ruture.
Ignorance has always been a
synonym for fear. So the first effort
in the education and disciplining OF
the new recruit is the importation OF
knowledge-military, personal and
sanitary. His relation to the fighting
force as a whole is explained. Hia
personal status. responsibility and
duties are eXpounded and vividly IL
lustrated; and the sanitary details
and regulations not only are issued
and insisted upon. but are painstak-
ingly explained and shown to be not
only reasonable, but for the good of
the men, individually and as a whole.
THE mental attitude of the re-
cruit is a raging battlefield. The
hardest fight is against self-indul-
Gence, not of vicious sort, but that
kind in which we all INDUCED in
civilian life, doing things when we
liked. as we liked. and only when
we liked. The recruit has to learn to

A Brotherhood of Nations
[Philadelphia Inquirer]

A wonderful thing has come to
pass. England has celebrated. in all
earnestness and in all sincerity, the
birth of the American Nation. Cele-
bratlons in France-why, quite
natural. Celebrations in Italy
yes. But England!
Times are changing. Old ami
mosities between nations are wiped
out. To-day there is a brotherhood
of nations bound together in a COM
mon cause-a holy cause. And that
cause has bridged whatever gap of
misunderstanding there has been
between England and the United
States.
A wonderful thing. we have said.
And yet, regarded from the proper
viewpoint, the wonder is that all diff
ferences did not disappear long ago.
Back in 1875 there was a family
quarrel. Against the protests of the
greatest statesmen of England,
German king of England insisted
upon disciplining high-strung
daughter. English colonies fought
against this German king, and out of
the contest emerged the United
States,

flushed and happy whiteness,
Miles on miles of cots.
The glad conterted brightness
Where sunlight falls in spots.
Sisters swift and sanity
Seem to tread on grass;
Like flowers stirring family.
Heads turn to watch them pass.
Beauty. blood and sorrow,
Blending in a trance
Eternity's tomorrow
In this halfway house of France.
Sounds of whispered talking,
Labored indrawn breath;
Then like young girl walking,
The dear familiar death.

GOOD BUSINESS

T HE statement that the newly
organized bureau of collection
of delinquent taxes in the de-
partment of the Auditor General was
able in less than six months to
gather in half q million dollars due
TO the Commonwealth and that a
million more is in sight is pleasant
reading. There have been a good
many people in the land of the opin-
ion that the State of Pennsylvania
was not a good bill collector be-
cause the last three years or so the
Commonwealth has had some hard
shedding and several times payments
had to be delayed because the
money was not on hand to run the
government and to pay certain ap-
propriations at the same time. Not
much was said about it then, but the
fact remains that some of the settle
ments, as the business of agreeing
on what is owed for taxes and other
pushed. This has been established
by the Investigations conducted by
Auditor General Charles A. Snyder.
But the new bureau is chasing delin-
quents and is also going back over
some old settlements to see that
Father Penn got all that was coming
to him. And renewed activity is no
ticed in auditing of accounts Of
county officers. 1t may be said that
in half dozen lines the fiscal af-
fairs of the State have been braced
up and that there will be an increase
in revenues which should be perma-
mont.
In event that the Legislature de-
cides to give greater measure of
State aid to the school system il
would seem that the Auditor Cen
eral is finding way to do it.
