The delegation will leave Paris in
September. The visit Is the result OF
an invitation extended to the minis
try Of commerce by the United States
Chamber of Commerce.
1t is not alone history in the
making that is turning the atten-
tion of men and women of Wash
ington and New York toward Lon
don, Paris and Rome. The names
OF men which are household words
here are frequently found in the
mass of news now coming from
those world centers. but in scores
of minor ways residents of Wash
ington and New York are being re-
minded that families on both sides
of the Atlantic are constantly be-
ing more closely united through
personal association If not by ma
trimonial ties.
Incoming steamships have
brought from Europe relatives and
friends long resident on the other
side of the ocean, and they have
become part and parcel OF local So
cial life. Weddings have extended
ties in some families which had be-
come similarly united in past years
and governmental honors have been
awarded to women as well as men
who before the war gave no thought
to emerging from local environ
ments. Thus the lines of social de-
markation between Washington.
New York. London. Paris and Rome
are being level1ed to the common
ground OF a general community of
interests.

RABBI ENDORSES THE
MINIMUM WAGE BILL

The minimum wage law has been
endorsed by the Rev. Samuel A. Rabin-
owitz, rabbi Of the Temple OF Truth,
and a member Of the legislation COM
mittee Of the Consumers League.
The rabbits statement Is, In party.
First Of all. 70 is the women and
minors who need the protection OF a
minimum wage law. as the proposed
law for Delaware provides. Men obtain
wage recognition In measure through
their labor unions, which at bottom, ex-
lst for this purpose. The women as a
rule are not organized. are not able 10
make their demands felt and because
OF a greater disinclination 10 move
from place 10 place 10 seek better
wages, are more at the mercy Of EN-
ployers.
"ln a survey made just before the
war, Il was found that three-fourths
OF the laboring men In this nation were
receiving less than SIS per week, three
lflhs Of the women In Industry were
receiving less than IS per week, with
no provision made for idle time, which
was about 20 per cent.
we can hardly close our ewes 20 the
fact That laborers an over the world
are dissatisfied with their condition and
are taking advantage OF the present op-
perfume time OF readiustment 10 drive
home their grievances. The war was
fought and won for humanity, the
rights OF man; and the working man Is
impatient 10 have his human rights re-
stored TO him."

EVANGELIST PREDICTS
COMING OF CHRIST

THAT we are living In the last gen.
Grafton Of earth's history before the
coming Of Christ in the clouds OF
heaven with power and glory" was the
assertion Of Evangelist Booth, before a
congregation or seventeen or eighteen
hundred persons, in the Queen Theatre
last night.
Continuing, the speaker said in part
Though all the prophets and apostles
have prophecied Of the second coming
of Christ. yet It was left for the Mas
ter TO give the most definite prophecy.
He said, The sun shall be turned into
darkness, and the moon into blood.
and the stars shall fall from heaven.
And then shall appear the sign
Of the Son Of Man In heaven. Matt
2i:29-3i.) These signs have been
spoken Of in the Bible at least seven
times and always in connection with
the second coming Of Christ.
THE sun was darkened May 10, 1870,
and Is known as the Black Friday OF
New England
THE stars fell from heaven In 1893
A. D.
After enumerating these signs, the
Lord says This generation shall not pass
till all these things be fulfilled
which Will include the sign Of His
coming in the clouds OF heaven.

On the sea with other heroes 70.
Our soldier boys In blue.
Our soldiers fought on sea.
For the sake Of Liberty.
They fought with all their might.
For what they knew was right.
When they hear the bugle call.
They're always ready to answer tn,
call.
They worked us out in the sunshine.
They worked US out in the rain,
In fact, they kept us busy all the time
Working with might and main,
They give us a tent to sleep in,
With mud half up to our knees,
And when we awake in the morning
The FIRST thing we do is sneeze.
The shower baths were plentiful.
We got one every six weeks,
And when we finished bathing
The dirt would be Off in streaks.
They call Us TO mess with the bugle,.
We would then run out in line,
And stand in the rain an hour or more,
For fear we'd be late to dine.
But now that we are on our home
ward way,
For all this we don't give a darn,
And when we get back in. U. S. A.
We know we will be safe from harm.

The movement ought 10 meet the ap-

the financial support Of all Americans
and foreigners, for Il viii tend 10
strengthen the ties Of friendship and
cooperation. most desired at present
Il should not aim only TO teach these
prospective Americans the rudiments

necessity may be. but also give them
practical information. familiarlze them
with our laws, customs, home ideals,
with the fundamental facts Of our his
tory and strive TO prepare them for
intelligent and patriotic citizenship.
10 ought 10 be a movement OF family
Americanization rather than OF male in

been neglected as a poor material 10

Americanize the home, and for play

The whole aim OF the educational pro-
