THE WHY AND WHEREFORE
OF FLASHLIGHTS.
Over THREE MILLION

Over THREE MILLION Flash
lights are in use in this country. Each
one a Lighting Plant for emergency
use. The initial cost is very low. The
ultimate worth cannot be computed.
The father who was able to find
his child in the smoke-filled room by
means of his flashlight, the man in the
drifting boat who was able to signal
help would have considered his flash
light cheap at any price. 1t was not so
many years since that a Flashlight was
considered toy, but now it is a neces-
sity.

League of Nations Cannot Fail

League OF NatlOnS cannot FalI
This is indeed a day of determina-
ton for America. A league of nations
has been proposed and basically ap-
proved by a peace conference of
friendly powers, the like of which the
world has never witnessed. 70 fail
now would mean disaster; even failure
could not mean a return to the old
order. Nations internally upset vouch
for that. The league of nations de-
serves the moral support of democrats,
republicans, sOcialists-it is a great
step in the establishment of perman-
ent peace. 1t would be the worlds
first great covenant, unbeatable be-
cause of world wide opposition. Pres
ident Wilson said on his return from
Europe:
NOW all the peoples of Europe are
buoyed up in the hope that all the
nations of the world shall unite their
moral and physical forces that right
shall prevail. What would happen if
America should fail the world of its
hope? All nations will be set up as
hostile camps again and the men at
the peace conference will go home
with their heads upon their breasts
because they will have failed We
would leave on the peace table moth
ing but a modern scrap of paper
America can only play her part with
the same earnestness which enabled
it to so successfully terminate actual
fighting. Opposition from democrats
and republicans alike is 'naught but
obStinacy.

Wilson EurOpe's Idol, Mary Mcdowell
Saws: Scores Home Critics

can American who has seen France
and England in the wildness and fervor
of their welcome to President Wilson
feels sick at heart when, returning to
America, he finds that it is filled with
critics of the president and those who
would handicap him in the great task
he is so ably directing"
So spoke Miss Mary Mcdowell OF the
University of Chicago Settlement, adj
dressing the Iroquois club of Chicago.
When she was through the club
passed a resolution calling upon all to
support President Wilson in his work
and pledging the clubs support. Miss
Mcdowell said:
"The working people of England and
France, men, women and children
have come out of the hell of war hat
ing war as it has never been hated
before. Woe to the leader who would
take them into it again. Americans
and Wilson are defied.
paris and London fly thousands Of
American flags, and little statues OF
Wilson are seen everywhere. There
are those at the peace table who would
settle the war in the old way, but
President Wilson, through his great
influence with the common people, has
forced them to adopt the plan of a
league of nations.
1.-THE men and women of the middle
west should besiege the capitol at
Washington. They should camp upon
the lawns. They should demand that
sentries follow the presidents lead and
that the league of nations be warmly
received in America as it is in Eu-
rope"
Miss Mcdowell read a letter from
the son of University of Chicago pro-
fessor, written in France to his mother
at home. Extracts from the letter
follow:
81 do hope you are in no way aligned
with the critics of the president at
home. There is no need now to pay
homage to him as man. The ques-
ton of his personality is wholly minor
But to him as an instrument there is
need to pay the greatest homage.
r. God knows he needs all the prayer
humanity can offer for his guidance
Here he is, the one man in the world
capable at all of holding this confer
ence to a singlemindedness the one
man in the world who may by any pos
sible chance be the instrument through
which such benefits may be achieved
for humanity, as by no other instru-
ment in all histOry-a world crisis OF
need for him here if only as symbol
1--WE hear echoes of talk from Amer
lea that he is unworthy because he
asked for a Democratic congress.
tell you that any American who, by
word or deed, does anything to dis
credit or lessen the strength of our
president in this great moment is not
only a traitor to America, but he is a
traitor to humanity.
This is indeed a time for all the
rest of us to be mute and prayerful
and await the issue with something
like silence"
Miss Mcdowell declined to reveal the
name of the writer of the letter.

Forgot What He Needed

From the Republican, Mt. Giliad,
Ohio: The editor had an interesting
experience some time ago, when a
young gentleman came to this office
and asked for a copy of the Morrow
County Republican. He scrutinized it
carefully when copy was handed
him, and then said: Now l know!"
What is it you are looking for" we
inquired. my wife sent me after a
bottle of Chamberlain's Cough Rem
edy, and l forgot the name. l went
to several stores and the clerks named
over everything in the line on the shelf
except "Chamberlain's I'll try again
and I'll never go home without Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy" The Repub-
licar would suggest to the proprietors
of stores, that they post their clerks,
and never let them substitute. Gus
toners lose faith in stores where sub
stituting is permitted, to say nothing
of the injustice to makers of goods and
the disappointment of customers.

"The suffragists gained the most
notable convert in the world, when
President Wilson made their cause
his own. The women of the United
States will be enfranchised before the
close of the Wilson administration, !"
Ellis Meredith.
The women of the United States
have made remarkable progress the
past four years. They have won vic
tory after victory. Through President
Wilson's cooperation, they will doubt
less gain a final victory.

READY TO
BEGIN DRIVE FOR BIG
RECONSTRUCTION FUND
Warren VanDyke and the Rev E. r. Hickman Are Chosen
Leaders of Campaign in Harrisburg District

Baltimore. May 16.-Methodist
churches are ready to celebrate the
most eventful week in the history
or the church. Beginning next Sun
day and continuing until May %,
100000 members of the church
will join in rallies and other events
that bring to a climax the Centen-.
ary campaign, commemorative or
the hundredth anniversary of Meth
odist missions.
The final week marks the culmi-
nation of campaigns along the lines
of intercession, stewardship, life
service and tithing. Between May
8 and May %, church organiza-
tions will make a drive to raise
FUNDS for worldwide relief work
and educational endeavor.
The churches in this area. COM
prising several states, are scheduled
to contribute approximately $1,000
600 toward a fund of S105, 900,
which the entire church will raise,
under the missionary Centenary sur
vey to carry forward hundreds of
humanitarian projects.
Suppers and other social gather
ings are to feature the program in
practically every church. Special
Centenary meetings also are to be
held. Minute men. recruited to carry
the Centenary message Will denver
speeches.
Reports received at headquarters
here from all parts of this terri
tory, and other sections of the
Washington area, comprising Mary
land, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Dis
trict of Columbia, Virginia and
West Virginia. show that financial
campaigners in every parish are
ready to proceed with a rush in
their canvasses- of memberships.
Elmore B. Jeffery. of Baltimore,
area financial chairman, returning
from a tour of the area to-day, said
n preliminary canvass revealed that
this area will go 'over the top" by
a good margin with its quota.
Hundreds of churches already
have gone over" Mr.. Jeffery said.
Hundreds of others are ready to
mark up their totals as soon as the
financial drive is formally launched
Sunday. Districts which apparently
were weak because of local debts
and improvements planned, will fur
nish the surprise of the campaign
as scores of such churches already
have their quotas pledged. We are
