HIGH TIDES.

The recent high ocean tides on the
eastern shores of the Atlantic along
the northeastern states have been as
cribed to the perhelion position of the
moon, which means it's relative close
ness to the earth. The orbit of the
moon is not circular but elliptical,
and this makes it necessary for it to
be nearer the earth at some times
than at others. But it is a strange
thing that while the differences in
distance are about the same most of
the time, it is true that the unusual
tides do not always occur under the
same conditions. And this is what
cannot be explained, just as the real
cause of the revolution OF the planets
is not known. We merely know that
they revolve upon their own axes
Beyond that our knowledge does moi
extend. 1t is like our knowledge of
the winds. We know that they exist,
and that certain conditions will pro-
duce them, based on barometric pres
sure. But what actually causes the
many changes in barometric pressure
we do not know. In other words, we
know that certain causes form condi-
tions, but We do not know the cause
of the cause.
The high tides of last week were
almost without precedent, and were
interesting from the standpoint of
giving us the opportunity of studying
what might have been the cause of
their sudden onrush against our
shores. Verify, the mystery of ma
ture is beyond the ken of man.

THE Philippine FLAG.

Ever since Admiral Dewey sailed
roughshod into Manila Bay, no Phil
ippine flag has ever flown in the is
lands. Recently, however, it has
again become lawful to fly the flag
under the Stars and Stripes, or at the
left of the American emblem. The
Philippine flag is looked upon as sa-
cred emblem of liberty, and under the
promise of freedom granted by Amer
lea, there is great rejoicing that the
native flag may once more be un-
furled. The day of independence is
dawning, and much promise is laid in
store for the day that will be the

BEWARE THE SKILLED RIVAL

The more highly skilled the immi-
grant the more dangerous as a rival.
And yet we frown at poor and ignor-
ant farm laborers and welcome people
who have money enough to keep them
supported till they can search out a
highly paid employment. If l am to
fight any man l want him to have his
hands tied behind him and then
can win. but if I am the weaker I
have got to give in and let him carry

POPULAR CAPES AND SAILORS
Garment and ueS5gsar Combination
That Is Having Favored Call in
All Saetions.

This seasSa New York has Two fash
ions which loudly proclaim them
selves: the cape in a hundred different
shapes but always flowing and becom-
ing, and the sailor hat, which may be
stiff and straight as of Old, or some
what modified by just the right
breadth of brim and the softness of it's
scarf instead Of Jne old-fashioned
sitter ribbon blnd.
Everywhere we turn, says a writer
in Good Housekeeping, granddaughter
and grandmother alike have a cape
and a sailor hat. And why not? 1t
takes the place Of IL suit, and is worn
over a l~ast-year's ffock, or over a win
ter dress remodeled to meet the needs
of the summer. For the hot months
it can be worn alike y the silk frock
or Over the cotton frock. 1t may be
worn in town or in the country, afoot
or in the motor, end 1t doubtless "
more wool than a jacket and skirt. 1t
is most often of blue or beige serge
and lined with satin. Sometimes it Is
reversible-or again, it may be OF
satin with the bottom edged with
fringe.
In times when we are all thinking
economy, the sailor hat appears as a
matter of purse 1t is inexpensive, al
most universally becoming, and is to
be had now in as many shades as the
rainbow boasts. There are dark mod
els for town wear, and pink, blue and
mauve types for country wear. Scroll
or che%nille-dotted wells are worn with
them in town, and for the country
they are pretty with a white-figured
veil and the sleeveless sweater or
jacket.

II have but one request to make
and that is to bespeak for the Fifth
Loan the hearty cooperation of every
man and who worked so splen-
didly in the campaign last autumn for
the Fourth Liberty Loan.
81 think we all fully realize that we
still have a great task before uS-the
task of raising the additional money
to meet the expenses of the war which
have been incurred by the government,
and for the return of Our victorious
armies to American soil, together with
tation. The Victory Loan will give us
the opportunity to finish the job in a
true American way and l feel that I'M
til this is done our duty to our splen-
did heroes, as well as to our country,
will not have been performed.
MAY l take this public way of
stating that those who will be in
charge of the forthcoming campaign
will need the assistance of every
worker who took part in the last
loan and many more in addition. l
feel perfectly confident that we can
count on their loyal patriotic support"
The personnel of the Executive
Committee is the same as in the
Fourth Liberty Loan, as follows: e.
Pusey Passmore, Chairman; Walter
G. Janney, Horatio G. Lloyd, John H.
Mason, Mrs. Henry d. Jump, George
Wharton Pepper, Joseph Wayne, Jr.,
and Lewis Parsons.
George K. Reilly, of the Advisory
Committee for the State of Pennsyl-
vania in the Fourth Loan, was forced
to retire on account of i~ll-health, and
the press of personal business. His
resignation was accepted, and E. Nc
Lain Waters. director of the War
Savings Committee, was appointed in
his place. The other members of the
Advisory Committee for the States are /:
Philemon Dickinson, for New Jersey,
and Lewis L. Mann for Delaware.

FINISH THE JOB

The success of the Victory Liberty
Loan, the fifth government war loan,
will depend largely on the savings of
the people of the nation.
To insure it's success, we must be-
gin to save NOW-to practice anew
the great lessons of the war, thrift
and economy. Aside from the loss of
respect for ourselves as a nation every
family will be unpleasantly affected,
if the coming loan is not fully SUBJ
scribed. Uncle Sans war exchequer
is compelled to spend money at the
rate Of more than three hundred mil
lion dollars q week-to maintain the
army of occupation, to rehabilitate the.
wounded, to bring home the victors
and to carry out the program of re-
construction. He has found peace in
it's early stages more expensive than
war.
This money is being borrowed from
the banks of the country, and Uncle
Sam is issuing short-term notes on the
coming Liberty Loan and the Federal
Taxes due March Is. If the banks
we're not speedily paid back, their re-
sources would be gone, and as they
could make no loans, credit operations
would be hampered and business
stagnate.
H " about it? Will we finish our
job-that of paying the war bills, as
our immortal heroes finished theirs of
vonOuichinU tho Huno Thav xvnra NOT
cutters, even when called on to make
the supreme sacrifice. Will we be
cutters, when there is all to gain and
nothing to lose?
A little saving now is all it will
cost, and this saving will mean q
stronger grip on the future. The viz
tory Liberty Loan will come in the
spring. VIII you be ready to do your
part?

The Newly Appointed Officials For
Victory Liberty Loan in the Third
Federal Reserve District.

!" HE Executive Committee and Dr.
rectors for the Victory Liberty
Loan Organization in the Third
Federal Reserve District have been
appointed at a meeting in the head
quarters, As South Broad Street,
Philadelphia, and the resignation of
Lewis H. Parsons, Director of the Third
and Fourth Loans, owing to the press
of personal business, was accepted.
No director was appointed to fill the
vacancy caused by Mr.. Parsons with
drawal. John H. Mason, Director of
the War Loan Organization, which
handles War Savings stamps as well as
the Liberty Loans, will assume active
control, assisted by the Executive Com
mittee and three Associate Directors.
The following statement was issued
by Mr.. Mason:
Governor Passmore has decided
the campaign for the Victory Liberty
Loan shall be carried on by the War
Loan Organization of the Third Fed
eral Reserve District, which really
means there will be practically no
change, except in name.

BUYING LIVES,
LOAN PURPOSE
Your Liberty Loan Subscriptions
Will Help Pay For Saving
100000 Yanks.

The coming Liberty Victory Loan
will pay the cost of saving the lives
of more than 100000 Yanks and thou
sands of u allies, according to Lewis
B. Franklin, Director of the U. S. War
Loan Organization.
"The speed and bravery of the Amer
lean 'doughboy' affected the Germans
on the front line more than it did the
men at German general headquart-
ers,'' states Mr.. Franklin, 'but the
fact that America had ten tons of
mustard gas ready for shipment in
1919, to every ton that Germany had,
the fact that we were going to have a
tank on the front line for every rs
feet of the line in 1919, the fact that we
would have thousands of batteries of
guns where we did not have a single
one in 191S-those facts had In infiu-
ence on the German general staff.
"And those millions and billions of
dollars were far from being wasted
in an unnecessary preparation. l feel
that the fact that money was spent
and that that enormous output of mu-
nitions was ready, vas the controlling
factor in the weakening of the Ger
man general staff, and that it caused
their message to the Kaiser that they
were beaten, and that he must sue for
peace. And the way / see it is that
this money, instead of being wasted,
can be written down as having saved
the lives of hundreds of thousands of
American men who would have been
sacrificed had the war continued an
other year.
saThat is the money we are going
to ask the American people for in the
Fifth Liberty Loan. We are going to
ask them for the money that brought
our boys home safe and sound, instead
of leaving them buried in France. And
when the people of America realize
what this money did, we are not going
to find that they are lacking in patriot
ism to come across"

7 YNDER a policy of "Home Rule"

7 YNDER a policy of "Home Rule"
for all component parts of the
Liberty Loan Committee, John
Fl. Mason, Director of the War Loan
Organization, predicts that the Vic
tory Liberty Loan will be oversub-
scribed in the Third Federal Reserve
District.
Philadelphia is the center of the
Third Federal Reserve District, which
includes Pennsylvania east of Johns
town; New Jersey, south of Trenton,
and Delaware. Letters are being SEM
to all Liberty Loan chairmen in towns
in this district asking them to ar
range for a meeting of workers to be
addressed by representatives of the
headquarters.
Mr.. Mason announced, however, that
chairmen in various localities will be
helped and advised by the parent
committee, but that no one would
NC lCQullEu " duOpI any lHCdSulC hOI
thought advisable by the authorities
in that particular locality.
Plans are now being completed to
have a representative from Philadel-
phia visit all sections of the District,
and help the local committees in their
campaign. Mr.. Mason announced that
he expects to make a speaking tour
himself through the district in the
near future.
II do not feel that we in Philadel-
phia have done enough in the past to
help our fellow-workers throughout
the district" he said. Our problems
and theirs are not identical, and the
only way we can help them is to have
a representative study their prob
lens at close range"
