Great Britain and the Incoming sup

the trade has been rendered more DIFF

posed by the prohibition OF the use OF
edible oils and fats except in the prepa

ANTI-CIGARETTE SUNDAY

Sunday, the 2Sth, is anti-cigarette day in all Sunday schools, made so by the International S. S. Lesson com mittee. All Sunday schools should observe it, as it seems that many ped pie. in their mad craze to do some thing for the soldiers are centering their gifts on the cigarette-the very thing soldier does not need.
 Some one asked the other day; "Is there any use to work against to- bacco?" The very same question was asked years ago when we began to stem the tide of drunkenness and the reign of the saloon. But you see it has done good. It has taken years and years-and men and women and money by the millions, but the tenn perance work is moving grandly on, and nobody now asks "Is there any use?" but they do say: q bid the brave workers Gcd-speed, and want to enlist for the last long pull for na- tional and worldwide prohibition. I am ashamed that 1 have not done so sooner" Thus it goes. A few strug- gle at the first, like the little tug boat that pulls the great Leviathans of the deep from their moorings. Then when these heavy boats ride out in mid ocean with the ease and grace of a swan, one thinks of the puffing and pulling and the shrill whistling of the strong little tug that brought then out. J.

nutshell" said Uncle Harry. THE
Shipping Board, Of which Mr. Edward
n. Hurley, OF Chicago, is the chairman
or head. is what 10 called the parent
body in all this ship building busi-
ness. The Shipping Board ls com
posed OF Chairman Hurley and four
other members, and among other duties
II has the tremendous Job OF keeping up
the supply Of ships for our country and
the Allies. The work OF constructing
new ships the Board has relegated 10
the Emergency Fleet Corporation. This
Fleet Corporation Is o regularly organ
lied company or corporation but II Is
owned by the u. S. government, which
supplies all the moneys needed for It's
operation. The Fleet Corporation, in
turn, contracts with privately owned
ship yards for the construction Of ships.
And while the actual work OF building
the ships Is done by the private com
panles, the entire work is managed by
the Emergency Fleet Corporation. OF
which Mr.. Schwab is the head. There
is no more important work In the coun-
try than the ship yards are doing and

HIM SUCCESS

The Rev. William A. vrooman was
installed as pastor OF First Unitarian

iting ministers. C. s. Hammitt on be-
half Of the trustee board, welcomed
Mr. Vrooman to the church and Mayor
Lawson welcomed the new minister as
a citizen to the city.
The address OF the evening was
given by Mr.. Grinln. who spoke Of
The Meaning OF Unitarianism.
Political liberty and religious dogma
do not so hand in hand, Mr.. Griffin
declared The soul demands freedom
just as does the body Just as we
find in our political life a freedom
governed only by Just and proper re-
straints, so with the religious liberty
there are proper and Just restraints
but the 0nal arbitrator In this religious
liberty is the conscience. I'VE bow the
knee only TO God"
Mr.. Forges read the scripture lesson
and also delivered the installation
prayer Mr. Wing made a short ad-
dress on the need Of fellowship Mayor
Lawson recalled events Of the past,
which he said made him especially
proud TO stand iu the pulpit Of the
Unitarian Church. He called attention
Co The fact that during O period Of
more than 100 years there had been
no need Of an armed force upon the
border line between this country and
Canada. This circumstance shows, Mr..
lawson said, that two countries can
get along together amicably n they
wish to do so.
