 Fighting Ffercely.
 Between the Ailette and the Aisne and far to the southeastward along the line of the Vesle the battlefield is one vast panorama of fire. Here at the moment the Germans are offering the most desperate resistance, since the issue in this sector has a graver strategic bearing than anywhere else along the whole front.
 With General Mangin's men already across the Ailette on either side of the village of Champs, the enemy's hold on Coucy-Le-Chateau is threatened Coucy-Le-Chateau is highly important to the Germans as a distributing cer- ter of troops falling back from Noyor and those fighting stoutly on the let bank of the Ailette.
 Shells Bursting.
 From the crest of the plateau nortf of Soissons, shells can be seen burst ing against the German lines.
 American troops i'll the center are still fighting to clear the difficult en- tanglements of ravines before them There has been no close fighting il these valleys as yet.
 A Bright View.
 A philosophic wounded prisoner was encountered today in the road neaH the battlefield. He said:

 All men within the new ages, wheth- CT citizens of the United States or not must register, unless they are dip- foreign nations.
 In case of illness on the registra- tion day, arrangements for tardy en- rollment may be made with local boards and men who expect to be ab- sent from their homes may register by mail, sufficiently in advance that tine registration record reaches the boards by September 12 If a man has no permanent residence he is to reg ister at the place he is on September = and those out Qf the country on that day are required to enroll within five days after their return.
 l3 Million For Service.
 At least 13,000,0OO men will place themselves subject to call for war service under the new registration, it is estimated, although only those with out dependents, in good health and otherwise qualified for arduous duties of soldier life are to be taken first.
 Youths in their eighteenth year will be place din separate group. the war department has announced, to be sub ject to special educational program and will not be called until the SUD- ply of other available men in the new classes is exhausted,
 Not Long Ways Off.
 This does not mean that their call ing will be long deferred, however, in- asmuch as it has been announced that all men in the new registration ac- cepted for general service will be un- der arms by June 30, 1919. The man. power bill makes no specific provision for separate classification of IS years old boys and war department plans for their treatment have been made on executive initiative.

GODS FIRST TEMPLES

An American poet who is now
fighting on the Scared, treeless
battlefields of France sings:
I think that l shall never see
A poem lovely as a tree.
His conviction is the conviction
of all of US. From the beginning of
things, trees have had the reverence
of mankind. TO early peoples they
were things of thought and feeling,
of desire and will. In the trees ac-
cordng to the ancient Greek beliefs,
dwelt some of the happiest, most
beautiful spirits that blessed the
earth. Even today, to us, there is
no object in nature which reveals
the divine more effectually than does
a symmetrical, green-leafed tree.
When we plant trees in our yards,
therefore, we are surrounding our
houses with constant revelations of
the beauty and goodness of God.
Arbor Day-"Mother Earth's Christ
mas" it has been called-means more
to us than simply one of a number
of interesting holidays. 1t brings
home to us, in a way in which no
other holiday does. the beauty and
the holiness of nature.
Arbor Day is celebrated this year
for the forty-sixth time. Established
in Nebraska in 1872, II has been
adopted by state after state; until
| it now amounts to a national insti-
tuition. 1t is a day for observance
in schoolyard, in churchyard, in
park, in orchard, on the home
ground. There is no place where
trees will not add beauty. OF course
the planting of trees is the funda.
mental purpose of the day. but there
should be more than this. Commu.
nifty programs. with perhaps "A bi
of dignified ceremonial accompany.
ing the tree-planting, will make 6
permanent impression, especially OF
the minds and hearts of the young
There are few things that hell
more in the development of sound
straightforward character than
love for nature and it's beauties
"The groves were Gods frs

learned to know that He Still love

A CAMPAIGN OF TRUTH

VIZ z cannot have impressed up
wv on us too often or too for
chilly the aims of America in
the war. The false peace moves of
Germany follow each other with
Kaleidoscope variety and rapidity.
We must not be confused bv them
nor led away from our main pur-
poses and aims which, briefly, are
to win the war against autocracy, to
make the world safe for democracy
and democracy safe for the world /:
to secure for nations small and great
safety, justice and equal economic
opportunity; and, finally, to estab-
lish league of peace, to the end
that there may never be repetition
of the present frightful slaughter.
AS a part of the campaign un-
dertaken in conjunction with the
speaking division of the Committed
on Public Information appointed by
President Wilson, and conducted bI
the Church Peace Union and The
League to Enforce Peace, with the
the cooperation of the Commission
on International Justice and Coco
Will of the Federal Council O,
Churches and the World Allianc,
For International Friendshi,
Through the Churches, to keep III,
public fully informed as to our wa,
aims and policies, a big meeting will
be held in Harrisburg April 22. Tn,
men to speak are of internationa
reputation. They have an import
ant duty to perform. Much of Ger
many's strength has lain in the sue
cess of her propaganda. 1t is tn
purpose of the speakers to meet III,
insidious pro-German argument
and supplant them with the truth
We cannot hear too much of tina
kind of talk.

No Stupid Censorship
New York Times1

To keep the American people,
who are thousands OF miles away
from the battle zone, in complete
ignorance of what is happening to
the units OF their army would be
shortsighted and incredibly foolish
policy. 1t would prove, as time
went on, something of strain on
patriotism. That would be most
unfortunate, for 1t should be he
judicious endeavor of the admins
tration to see that the interest of the
people in the war and their concern
about the fortunes OF their armies
were always maintained.
To SURPRISES legitimate news and
to hide o. withhold losses, denying
relatives even the names of those
who fall in battle, would be to foster
apathy about the cause for which
America is fighting, to provoke sedi-
ton among enemy aliens. and to en-
courage the pacifists to renew their
agitation for q negotiated peace.
There is one thing that the most
patriotic Americans will not stand
an arbitrary and stupid censorship.

DIXON BUILDED WELL

IT MUST be a source of great graf
ification to the friends of the
4 late Commissioner of Health, Dr.
Samuel G. Dixon, and to the devoted
band of men who labored with him
for more than a decade, to read that
the death rate from typhoid fever
during the first month of this year
was down to As in the whole State
of Pennsylvania. This is the lowest
ever known in any month since the
present system of keeping track of
causes of deaths was devised. DR..
Dixon died when the results of his
campaign to eliminate typhoid began
to shine.

cuts the death rate for a month to

has been a target, but which has

because he made municipalities and
individuals take precautions; be-
cause he disregarded attacks open

persons who should have known bet

ration of his professional brethren
and because governors and legisla-
tors backed him up. But most OF
all, because he persevered. DR.

SPLENDID FIGHTERS

While unfortunately the number
of American troops available for re-
serve against the enemy's offensive
cannot be large, it goes without say
ing that the men who are called on
will act in a way to make their
country proud. There is a tempta-
ton to speak of American soldiers
in way that might impress neutral
observers as extravagant-of their
physique, their initiative, their in
telligence, their dash and courage,
and of that combination of qualities
that We call character. Men of that
sort, properly trained and equipped,
certainly cannot be surpassed as
soldiers.
Cannot be equaled as soldiers"
would have been the natural express
sion before 1914. But since the
world has seen what the French and
British have done in the fiery ordeal
of the last four years, all Americans
can say is that they expect Ameri-
can troops to prove worthy to fight
shoulder to shoulder with the splen-
did men of the allied democracies.
