A PRAYER
Simple Law Of Life
for All

Teach me that sixty minutes make
an hour, sixteen ounces pound, and
one hundred cents a dollar. Help me
TO live so that may lie down at night
without q gun under my pillow-un-
haunted by the faces of those whom |
have wrOnged.
Help me to earn my meal ticket on
the square and in conformance with
the Golden Rule.
Deafen me to the jingle of tainted
coin-to the rustic of unholy skirts.
May / be blind to the faults of my
fellows and see my own clearly.
Guide me SO that l may look across
the dinner table at my wife and have
nothing to conceal.
Keep me yO.ng-that l may laugh
with the children. Make me sympa-
thetic-that / may be considerate of
the old.
When cones the day of drawn
shades and fragrant flowers, of quiet
footsteps and hushed voices, when
the wheels crunch on the gravel walk
and the neighbors whisper, "How
natural he looks !''-malze the cere-
mony short and the epitaph simple:

Japanese Forecast DirefuI
Race Trouble for the World
Fear an Armed Collision

Belief that the next war will be
the outcome Of race prejudices is ex-
pressed by Yukio Ozaki, formerly
minister of justice and a leading
member of the constitutional party.
Mr.. Ozaki said that in his opinion the
colored races, which steadily were de-
vefoping their civilization, would de-
nand finally the same treatment as
the white races, and that the result
would be an armed collision.
ar. Ozal1i recommended that Japan,
acting on behalf of all Asiatic races,
should introduce the racial and popu-
aation questions for consideration and,
If possible, secure solution. In a
country like Japan, where the popula-
ton is increasing with alarming
rapidity, he said it was but natural
that the surplus population should
fry to obtain an outlet even by resort
ing to arms. From Japans stand
point, said Mr.. Ozaki, the racial or
population questions were more i'm
portant than President Wilson's
fourteen points," as. laid down for
basis for Gerinany's surrender. These
racial questions he said, concerned
the future of millions of souls in Asia.
Mr.. Ozaki warned the Japanese not
TO develop the German system of state
organization, which i'm the war had
proved to be a mere machine for de-
Stroying civilization and for tramp
ling under foot the rights of other ma
aions and peoples. On the question
of Japan's occupation of the German
South Sea islands, Mr.. Ozaki de-
clared that the United States should
<dismantle her forts in the Philippines
and Hawaii and that this would be
more important for Japan than the
taking over of the South Sea islands

GOLF SPORT is DUE
FOR BANNER SEASON
Champion 0uimet Looks for Busy
Time in 1919.
Thinks End of War Will Have Big
Effect of Boosting Affairs of Links
Expects to Compete in Ma
tional Open and Amateur.

Golf is due for it's biggest year next
season, in the opinion of Francis Oui-
met, former national titlehoIder and
present Western amateur champion.
With all the new faces and the old
boys keener than ever to get into the
game seriously again, after being more
or less shut up for year, 1919 shapes
up to him as the banner year in the
history Of the royal and ancient game.
Ouimet can see no prospect of a
letup in his army work, figuring that
his branch of the service will be busy
for some time to come. He does ex-
pect, however, that conditions will be
such that he can play lot of golf next
season. In 1918 he played little, COM
paratively speaking, though at the end
of the season his game was all he could
desire.
The Western champion says he got
so, after winning two national events
that he hardly cared what happened
so far as his game was concerned when

Chinese Children Sold as

China's appalling poverty is tradi-

Work. Tens of thousands Of people
die annually from starvation. Moth

sell them into slavery or dishonor. In
times of drought and famine a regu-

American Indians Aided and :
Profited by the World War

The American Indian by enlisting in
the army and navy, by subscribing lib
orally to the Liberty ;eans by increas-
ing the production of foodstuffs on In
dian lands and by contributions to re-
lief agencies greatly aided the United
States and the allies in winning the
war, declared Cato Sells, commissioner
of Indian affairs, in his annual report.
Mr.. Sells said that out of $4,000 eligi-
BILE for military duty, more than $500
Indians entered the army, 1000 en-
listed in the navy and 500 more in
other war work. More than 5000 of
the enlistments were voluntary. Lib
erty bonds were bought, Commissioner
Sells said, until Indians now hold the
equivalent of one $50 bonds for every
man, woman and child of their race in
the nation. Through it all, Commits
sioners Sells said, new view of life
and his responsibilities is coming to
the Indian.

So the Young Mems Christian asso-
citation and Americas Over There
Theater league, which have cooper
ated in sending entertainment units
abroad, are now expanding their eff
forts. James Forbes, the playwright,
accepts applications and organizes
units.
"From July 80 to November 9 we
sent 102 entertainers abroad" Mr..
Forbes announces. ''We will continue
to send as many as we can until the
last American soldier is out of France.
Now that the fighting is over, they
need amusement and diversion more
than ever, and they keep urging and
urging and urging us to send more
players"
Hitherto the performers sent abroad
have been practically all vaudeville
players. There were several reasons
for this. Transportation was limited,
so the travelling companies had to be
small and they could not carry the
scenery and costumes necessary for
dramatic productions.
From now on, however, Mr.. Forbes
says the soldiers will have drama as
well as vaudeville.

Trailer Makes Touring Car
Answer Purpose of a Truck

A twO-wheeled trailer which is de-
signed to make the touring car an
swer the purpose of truck for light
hauling, has been found especially
valuable for merchants and dealers
called upon to deliver many small
loads which might be attended to
while taking orders along the route.
The coal truck is a two-wheel semi
trailer, which couples to the car by
means of a rocking fifth wheel on the
rear of the car. This is covered, when
not in use, by metal boot,
such as used on runabouts. The
semitrailer is of rather an unusual
design. 1t can be unloaded quickly
by turning a crank which operates a
ratchet, and this deposits the load in
the desired spot by fitting the funnel
shaped body. This body swings upon
curved flange, one on each side of
the metal body. A few turns of the
crank bring the body back to posi-
ton.

Soldiers Overseas Safe
From Winter Hardships-
Have Supply of Clothes

Mothers, sisters and sweethearts in
America need not worry about pro-
lection of their soldiers in Europe
against the rigors of winter, writes a
Paris correspondent. The quarter
masters corps specialists in France
declare that the boys are better
equipped than the majority of them
ever were in civilian life.
Each soldier has two pairs Of heavy
nail-clinched and dubbed shoes
which are impervious to water, five
pairs Of wool socks, three suits wool
underwear, two complete wool uni
forms, two wool o. d. flannel shirts,
one short but heavy Overcoat, trench
style, and one pair of wool knit spiral
puttees ten feet long. The quarter
masters corps estimates that the aver
age soldier in campaign wears out one
pair of trousers every two months,
and makes provision on this basis, al
though the normal life of pair of
breeches is six months. Every soldier
has also an overseas cap that has q
felt protector to pull down over his
ears. He is not allowed to wear the
old issue of campaign hat that his
folks at home are used to seeing. He
has wool gloves and one-finger leather
mittens over them and each soldier
is provided with at least three
blankets and waterproof slicker or
raincoat.
In addition to all this every soldier
