PerMissibie.

Permissible.
All hotels, restaurants, clubs and
dining cars which gave a pledge to
Herbert Hoover to refrain from serv-
ing any wheat products until after the
harvest, have been released from this
wheatless pledge, the South Dakota
division Of the food administration
has announced. The following cable
has been received from Mr.. Hoover:
an releasing the hotels, restau-
rants, clubs and dining cars from
their voluntary pledge not to use
wheat in any form until the new har-
vest, | wish to congratulate them
upon the patriotic example they set
and to thank them for the large saw
ing made. The echo of their service
has been heard in Europe and has
pointed the way OF democracy-the
most service Nom those who have the
most to give.
ut has been a personal inspiration
to me to have the continued help so
freely given of all the men and wom-
en- who put through the mo Wheat
campaign which helped us to provide
for the necessities OF the allies in
spite of our shorp crop. / have conf
dence the same spirit will enable us
to build UP the great reserve of wheat
and other foods needed to provide
against. future crop failure and to
assist the allied nations in putting
through the great offensive that must
win the war"
Those released from the pledge NAV
use wheat only as prescribed by the
baking regulations, the announcement
says.

Since powder came into use In war,
writer's have been fond Of comparing
the roar Of cannon to thunder
storm, thunder being given first rank
as the greatest imaginable noise. But
nature must take second place here
after as noise producer. The gunflre
in Flanders has been heard frequent
ly in London, while the limits or the
sound produced by the famius mine
under Vimy Ridge have not been de-
termined. On the other hand, no
peal Of thunder has ever been heard
so far as is known, more than TWEEN
ty miles. When lightning destroyed
a church at Lostwithiel, England, to
the accompaniment OF one Of the
most terrific thunder crashes ever re-
corded, not sound of 1t was heart

TO MEMBERS AND FRIENDS
OF FIRST CHRISTIAN CHURCH

We regret very much, that we shall
not be able to resume our public Dr.
vices on tomorrow as was hoped; but
may there not be to us a great les
son, as God is always endeavoring 10
teach and lead us, not only by pre-
cept, but also by means of our eX-
periences, into larger sympathies and
profounder realizations of the values
of this life. We may all better APP
preciate some Of the privations Of
many of Gods people, who because
of some infirmity or having been sit
uated too far away from any church
where they might meet to worship,
have been deprived of the privilege
of the Lords house. May we out Of
these experiences learn to not only
be more thankful for the sparing Of
our lives and of our loved ones, both
at home and across the seas; but may
we again come into our church priv
ileges, be more imbued with a mis-
sionary spirit and determined that we
will see to it, that the Gospel Is
preached in very corner of our land
and Of every other nation, and that
joys Of Gods people and of worship
in His house, may be the portion OF
all. Read for the hour Of worship
Isaih, 4l:1.13, also Isaiah, 12:1-6.

THE RIVERS OF FRANCE

The rivers of France are ten score
AZ and twain.
But five are the names that we
know
The Marine, the Vesle, the Ourcq
and the Aisne
And the Somme of the swamp flow
The rivers of France, from source to
Are nourished by many rill.
But these five, IL ever a drought
there be,
The fountains of sorrow would fill
The rivers of France shine silvery
white,
But the waters Of five are red
With the richest blood, in the fiercest
fight
For Freedom that ever was shed
The rivers of France sing soft as
they run,
But five have song of their own
That hymns the fall of the arrogant
one
And the proud cast down from his
throne.
The rivers of France all quietly take
To sleep in the house of their
birth.
But the carnadined wave Of five
shall break
On the uttermost strands Of earth
Five rivers of France, see their
names are writ
On banner of crimson and gold
And the glory of those who fashion.

Shall nevermorc cease to be told.
