size. The government gives a small
allowance to the unemployed refu-
gee, not much more than enough
to pay for the small ration be is
allowed each week-a pound Of
meat, little bread, and some GER
Gals. That is all, for food is scarce
in that region, and many must be
fed.
This is the north of France
where $500 villages and towns
stand in ruins, where 100000 build
ings were damaged, 100000 Of them
being totally destroyed; where
100000 people, One-twentieth of
the best earning power in France,
were dispossessed OF that 2,000,-
600, IS percent, Of those still living
want to come back, and they are
coming back as fast as the reviving
life of the region can absorb them
and faster. The government is
doing what it can for them, send
ing up food, portable houses, turn
ing over empty barracks, getting
together seed and materials and
tools. But the work is vast and
tragically slow And the people
seem to be getting nothing. Their
minds and their hands are empty.
So it is that any gift to this region
no matter how small, is welcomed.
From the nine Red Cross ware
houses, too, supplies are being dis
tributed through private French So
CietieS.
American Woman Has $4,000 to
Spend
Mrs. Brnck ThOrne went to
France last year with some hun
dreds of other Red Cross can
teeners. She differed from them
only in this, that she had 5000
spare dollars in her purse to invest
in some personal venture for
France. And during the three
months work at Is-Sur-Tille she
was alert to find the particular
niche her little fund could fill
At the end of her canteen serv-
ice she secured a Red Cross per
nit and turned north toward Lille,
ito see what she could see" She
saw thunder the guidance of Miss
Harris, the Red Cross director OF
that region. She had known the
facts before, but there are some
things you have to see for your
self. She went into the regions
about Verdun, scissors, Rheims,
and Amiens. Distribution commit
tees had been organized among the
women in many villages, and Mrs.
Thorne grew to know those OF the
Nord Department intimately. When
she stopped seeing them as refu-
gees and saw them as people, she
began, too, to see life among the
ruins as they saw it; not as waste
of desolation, but as reality, a
hard one, but endurable. She
began to see the tiny things on
which they rested, their hopes, and
to recognize what things in the
makeshift of their living were per
manent, and could be built upon.
1t was like finding the foundation
walls under the rubble OF ruined
house.
One day Mrs. Thorne began to
think rabbits. Rabbits would exc

toasted over the fire. Mrs. Graves,
Miss Henley, Miss Williams. Miss

lief of the suffering"
III. THE UNIVERSAL OBLIGATION
The minister is so called because
he owes something to the commun-
ity. The librarian can direct his
work in such a way as to help the
community. The war has empha-
sized the fact that business men
must and can give up time for work
designed to help the community.
Commerce Clubs, social clubs, fra
ternal organizations as well as
churches are being judged by their
service for the community. EN-
ployers' organizations are under OBJ
legation to help the community. We
are just now evolving a more defin-
ite statement regarding the respon-
sibility of labor organizations for
the community. There are not SIM
ply two groups in the social order
known as labor and capital. There
are three groups and the largest is
made up of the public. Capital and
labor owe an obligation to the pub
lie. Their organizations must be
used for, and geared up to furnish
helpful service for the public. Lock
outs and strikes do not bring this
about.

SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON FOR
NOVEMBER 80. 1919:

JESUS TEACHES PETER TRUE
GREATNESS"
Golden Text: "The Son of man
came not to be ministered unto, but
to minister, and to give his life a
ransom for many" Matthew 2O:2S.
Lesson John 1876, 36-38.
1. RED CROSS RELIGION.
The story is told of a young man
who went to Phillips Brooks and
told him he wanted to do something
original. Bishop Brooks is said to
have given him folded paper and
sent him away. On the paper the
young man read the words: "Stand
in the moonlight and cast shadow"
Some time later he returned and
said he wished to be useful as well
as great and this time he received
the words: Stand in the sunlight
and cast shadow and let a tired
workman eat his dinner in it." All
this is another way of saying that
helping others is the biggest thing
in the world. Jesus taught the world
the significance of service. This is
what we mean by ''Red Cross relig-
ion." 1t is a religion which is trying
to help others. Jesus himself took
the place of a servant. The story
is told of some girls who gave a
supper to raise money for the Red
Cross. Everybody was willing to
serve on committees excepting on the
committee on dishwashing. During
the reception the dishwashers
strucki So the President of the
class left the receiving line and went
down stairs to do the work herself.
Very soon there were ten candidates
for scullerymaid positions. Her ex-
nipple proved contagious!

His Letter Home

A Kensington boy of seven was
.ately sent to = boarding school, and
prior to his departure he was In
.lrLcted by his parents to write
long letters to them, with all the
news about himself. the school and
his little companions. So far his
communications have been note
worthy mainly for brevity and a
finely impersonal touch. His latest
reads: MY Dear Father and
Mother-Do you know that salt is
made of two deadly poisons? Your
loving son John. Even

WANTS TROOPS TO
PROTECT MINERS
Send Federal Troops to Guard
Workers.

Oklahoma City, Okla, Nov Is
Governor Robertson late today wired
Secretary OF War Baker asking that
federal troops be sent into Oklahoma
to protect coal miners willing to re-
turn against possible interference.
The governor today terminated ncgo-
tiations with representatives OF the
coal operators and announced that
another attempt to operate the mines
with volunteers would be made. lie
declared the operators had shown no
disposition to give material assistance
in keeping the supply Of coal during
the present crisis.
Another telegram was sent to tDr. II.
\. Garfield, Fuel Administrator, ask
ing that q fuel administrator be ap-
pointed for the state.
Governor Robertson and the state
council of defense will meet tomorrow
to discuss the situation
He has asked the council to issue a
call for volunteers

with larger quotas from the cities.
Transportation and good wages
will be guaranteed by the state to all
men who answer this call" Governor
Robertson said
THE operators and coal miners arc
both to blame for the present situa-
tion," Governor Robertson declared
"and both sides have refused to give
me the necessary cooperation. Now
they can both go to the devil. The
