Page, our Ambassador to Rome, in

The Red Cross has brought practical
aid to the armies, to the refugees, to
the children and to the suffering sol
dier's families in Italy, but, above all
things else, has been the spirit in
which the work mas been done. The
money spent and the supplies dis
tributed have been useful beyond es-

Red Cross has done the works (, has

moreover, which will be echoed by
everyone who knows what the Red
Cross is doing and how it does it.

PUTTING BUSINESS
INTO PATRIOTISM

The feature of the present war that
is peculiarly American is the way in
which the instrumentalities of bust
ness have been placed at the service
of patriotism. The time is past for
discussion as to whether the call Of
country is stronger than the call of
profit. 1t is now not a question of
putting business above your patriot
ism; it is matter of putting business
into your patriotism.
Though our Revolutionary ances-
tors accomplished great things in max
ing America free, they had not learned
as much about subordinating business
to patriotism as we have learned
Writing to James Warren in 1879,
Washington censures severely the
business morality in this time. "Our
conflict is not likely to cease as soon
as every good man could wish. Unless
we can return little more to first
principles, and act little more upon
patriotic grounds, do not know what
may be the issue of the contest. Spec
stalling, with all their concomitants,
afford too many melancholy proofs of
the decay of public virtue"
The moral principles of men change
but little from generation to genera.
ton, but the ways in which these mo-
raj principles are put into practice
change radically.

First Street Lighting

Gas for street lighting was first
used in Pail Mall, London, III years
ago. The first attempt to introduce
the use of gas in America was in
Baltimore, in 1916. The project was
In 1922 it was intro
duced in Boston, and in the following
year New York streets were lighted
by gas. The system did not prove
successful, however, until 1927. The
use Of gas spread rapidly in other
cities in the United States and Cana
da. Rosin and oil were used for pro-
ducing gas in America in the early
days of the industry, but later New
castle coal ard the Albert coal, of
Nova Scotia, were employed.

About Cousins.

The children Of brothers are called
cousins, cousins german and first or
full cousins. Often, however, the
term second cousin is loosely applied
to the son or daughter of a cousin ger
man, more properly called first
cousin once removed. A first cousin
once removed is the first Cousins
child; n first cousin twice removed is
the grandchild Of ones first cousin; a
second cousin once removed is the
child of ones second cousin. A first
cousin once removed is sometimes
called second cousin, followed by a
third fourth, etc. The relation Of an
individual to his fathers cousin is that
of a first cousin once removed, and
his relation to his fathers cousins
child Is that of first cousin twice re-
moved or third cousin.

Every citizen, generally speaking,
must Judge for himself 1t is recog-
nized that what is luxury to one
person may be necessity to another
depending on habit, health, occupa-
ton and other factors.
The main thing is to implant in ev-
cry individual mind a conscious de-
sire to economize. Each can then be
trusted to choose pretty well between
the things he really needs and the
things that represent selfish indul-
gence.
1t is desired that everybody shall
economize But it is not desired that
anybody should go about it with such
grim thoroughness as to weaken his
own strength, health and effective
ness. We must have wholesome food,
sufficient clothing, decent housing,
the means of cleanliness and health
full living,
And amusement is just as neces-
sary as anything else, Within prop
err limits, there is no selfishness or
extravaganza in going to a movie
show or a concert or a dance, or TAX
ing an occasional restful little trip to
freak the monotony and freshen one
self for the continued grind. There
must be sanity in all things, even in
war economy.-Rochester Times

TOTAL ABSTINENCE
FROM WHEAT

The war has been sold to the
American people. The German drive
and the thought of our own boys in
the thick of the fight have accom-
plished that. From all over the coun-
try are now coming reports of pledges
of total abstinence from wheat Total
abstainers' clubs started in Mount
Gilead, Morrow County, Ohio. The
movement covers the Nation. The
same spirit is shown as that reflected
in the Bible words ''If meat cause my
brother to offend, will eat no meat
while the world standeth." Patriotic
Americans are now saying, "If wheat
is necessary to perpetuate all l hold
dear, will eat no wheat until those
things are secured and guaranteed"
