The happiest, merriest Christ
mas the world ever knew is
almost here. But in the rejOiC-
ingS of peace and freedom there
is one note of seriousness that
America must not fOrget---there
is misery and distress and sick
ness all over the world. Relief
must be given. The work of
the Red Gross MUST go on.
And to carry on, the Red Gross
MUST have the support of your
membership.

BRING POTATOES FROM HIDING

With food so badly needed not only
N Europe, but right here in the United
States, it seems incredible that the loss
of thousands upon thousands of bushels
of potatoes should face the country. Yet
we have the word Of the Department of
Agriculture that such loss does threaten.
The potato crop Of 1917 totaled 442,
$50, 900 bushels, the largest on record in
the United States. Here was enough
food to take care of everybody and relieve
the drain upon limited supplies Of wheat
But the crop has not been moving to
market The Department OF Agriculture
estimates that only one-thlrd OF the sur
plus available for distribution has been
shipped up to December 81 last The
remainder was on the farms or in the
hands Of dealers, by far the largest part
on the farms.
Now comes the trouble. Potatoes will
not keep like grains. They must be
eaten within a comparatively short
period or thrown away; and the season is
getting late How to speed up marketing
is the problem.
The department has started a campaign
with an appeal to the farmers and dealers
TO market their holdings at once. The
appeal should meet with ready response.
\ break in prices probably would result,
but potato prices have been too high,
anyhow, in view of the big crop. Lower
prices would put more potatoes on the
tables and help everybody in the end -

What Our People Will Do.

DR. Garfield, the national fuel admins
traitor, expresses pleasure at the hearty
cooperation extended to him by the
people of the country in his efforts to re-
lievc the serious situation in respect OF
fuel shortage and the necessity for more
effective methods of transportation. The
people submitted TO great deal of incon-
venience, and In the main submitted
cheerfully.
Herein we had evidence of the underly-
ing spirit of patriotism that animates the
people of our country. They will submit
to privations and den!als on mere sugges-
ton that they would be restive under if
imposed by statute law. Given fair
explanation Of any situation, and shown
how they may help the country by cheer
ful compliance, and they will do their part
without the compulsion of law.
We have not yet been so severely pinch
ed by the war as the people of Europe
have been. We hope we will not be- But
enough has been seen to make it certain
that our people will do their part to the
end, no matter how they may be dis
conmoded. 70 bring this war TO its one
righteous ncltsion-the utter defeat of
those who forced it on the world.

The Good That Will Follow

In the very interesting story printed In
Yesterdays papers about the establish
mcnt of great munitions plant on the
Stump farm. at Perryylllc, Cecil county,
Md. TO be conducted by the Atlas Powder
Co. for the Federal government, it was
stated that while its main purpose will be
the manufacture of explosives for war
purposes, ''at the end of the war il will be
used for commercial purposes.
This is most encouraging The war will
not last forever, and il IS good thing that
after It's horrid work of destruction comes
TO close, so many of its agencies may be
converted into means for rebuilding what
has been destroyed and for conducting
business operations that will tend TO re-
store and maintain general prosperity.
War cats up tremendous amount OF
money, destroys property and works
universal destruction, TO say nothing OF Its
awful cost Of human life and human
suffering. That some of its destructive
agencies may be retained and utilized in
the work of upbuilding and restoration
that Will come after ii is a good thing.
May the day when the evil agencies that
forced the war on the world will be over
thrown, and made TO give way to peace,

PRESS COMMENTS.
FIGHT FOR PROHIBITION.

The sixth State to ratify the Federal
prohibition amendment, Maryland, has
not had State prohibition, is known for
her distilleries, and has lately been a
land flowing with cheer for thirsty Wash
ingtonians. Opponents of the amend
ment who took with equanimity the
ratification by Mississippi, one each
of the Dakotas and Carolinas, and
Virginia, and hardly turned n hair when
Kentucky came into the column, are
now observed to blench Maryland had
been counted as State determined to
stay ''wet," and the Legislature voted
IN the face of declaration by the iniluen-
tlal Cardinal Gibbons.
Will her neighbor, Delaware, also
counted safe by the "wets," follow her
example? II must be remembered that
twenty-nine States are fairly conceded
To be favorable to the amendment, and
only seven more are needed One of
the manHuvres of the "wets" is appar-
emily going to be an appeal for popular
referendum in cases where the Legislature
seems to incline towards ratification
But two can play that game. IF n
referendum in Missouri, giving st. LOUIS
full opportunity to express herself, might
block amendment, in States like Massa-
chusetts, the outcome would be doubtful,
and in some suffrage States it would give
an advantage to adherents of ratification

MEANING OF RELIGION.

These arc days when the true spirit
of religion should have its full sway
That spirit involves courage. candor
good will. sacriDcc, devotion, and those
fundamentals sthat constitute truth
These are the elements that belong Il
the trend of real religion, and q
cannot be too often urged upon
people Religion is not art, style, CIR
cumstance or technicality. 1t Is the
resolution of the soul, and that fact should
be pregnant in every religious duty.
This is the time for real religion which
cannot prevail without sacrifice. Where
there l. no sacrifice there is no religion,
and when one Is not conscious that he is
exercising self-tienial, he may be certain
he is lacking in his religion. We will
have to yield not only many pleasures,
but many forrnahties We will have to
face God wherever we turn these DAYS
He is there with a demand that we must
heed Every great cause depends upon
the religious spirit and wherever this
slackens the cause weakens and fails

Pies for Pershing's Men.

Pershings men In Fran &C expressed a
desire for pies-of the real old home
quality. General Pershing, ii is said, also
intinated that he would like to have a
real old apple pie Of home construction.
The women of the Salvation Army in
service in France set to work to supply
the demand, and did so most effectively.
General Pershing got his apple pies, and
his soldier boys also are being served in
like manner.
In one way this may seem trivial. But
otherwise it is not. Those soldiers of our
country who sigh for the pies they used to
get at home will fight all the better if they
are able to get them. And apparently the
women of the Salvation Army intend to
see that they get them.
Pies of themselves will not win the war
but they will help. Success to the efforts
of the Salvation Army lassies to see that
our boys in France get them.
