season. observed in various ascetic ways chiefly by
fasting Changing from age to age, it is endowed
with meanings spiritual rather than ecclesiastical It
is the time set apart for heartsearchng, repentance
and self-denia and as such appeals those liberals
who are beyond the need thereof.
But surely all seasons are meet for these exer-
cises of the spirit! Why Lent? For this reason.
Experience shows that do habitually practise
heart-searching repentance, and self-denial Re
minders and encouragements, days and seasons, are
needed. Better occasionsm than perpetual neglect;
better forty days of Lent than year of liberal ndf
ference AS spiritual practise, them like exercise at
stated times, Lent is to be commended.
But the season has inspiring associations we'll
as practical value 1t calls to mind souls who have
wrested and won It is forever associated with Christ
NOT necessarily bound up with the story of the forty
days FAST but reminding us how he went apart for
inner rest and communion. These associations are
holy if anything holy. Lent, thus sprngng out of
the ground of primitive experience passing through
the lower conventional stratum of life finally
full flower as holy season quite valuable for free
spirits for those who bondage of the letter.
No, we are not obliged to observe Lent but
Welcome, dear feast of Lent Who loves not thee,
He loves not temperance authority,
But is child of passion"
George Herbert may have had certain rabid Purtans
in mind when he wrote those lines, who ostenta-
tously planned feasts in Lent show their emancipation,
men of whom certain contemporary wrote, THE
meat does relish well except it be sauced with
disobedence and contempt of authority" true Lent
however, is neither fasting feasting.
1T is to fast from strife,
From old debate
And hate;
To circumcise thy life.
ITO show heart grief-rent
To starve thy sin,
Not bin;
And that's to keep Lent"
-Hanska Herald.

Appreciation of Teachers

Much more than readjustment of salaries to
meet the cost of living in the public mind in regard
to schoolteachers higher valuation of the business
in general is at hand. The in which it is held
is growing as result of the nationwide discussion
that is going on This advance is an important gain
and asset of the future. 1t will make easier the ques
ton of just compensation of teachers but also tend
to the best development of the schools in all respects
Efficiency as teacher matter of what grade implies
many years of careful training. Other forms of bust
ness be entered without certificate of preparation
and of having attained a certain high standard. The
capacity of applicant to teach tested for weak
spots, and failure in any of many studies, in
point of personal character bar the candidate is
not allowed to pass. That anyone who does pass
should receive less than the pay of the commonest
manual labor is clearly wrong, but in such case so
is the fundamental estimate of schools and teaching

Shall We Prove Ourselves Less Able in
Peace Times Than in Time of War?

The United States of America is the greatest
democracy in the world. 1t is vast farAung country
composed of many races many creeds, many opinions
many beliefs 1t is country that prdes itself on the
independence of thought and action of the Individual
And because of that pride of and glory in individual
liberty it is country foredoomed to argument to
struggle, to conflict.
This is not to be deplored. Quite the contrary
1t is to be exulted in and encouraged of course
that the argument be intelligent the struggle con-
structve and the conflict for the welfare and better
ment OF all its citizens. In many counsels lies wisdom
In the harmonious reconciliation of varied opinions
lies progress And in the effort of every citizen to i'm
prove himself, his fellows, and his country lies the
safety of democracy itself.
And during eighteen months of war we re-
manned true to democracy. Labor, capital business,
society worked hand in hand and shoulder to shoulder
for victory Never had the democracy of the United
States of America risen such an exalted height 1t
the final of our national abilities and the last
justification of form of government. We had
shown what democracy could do and how it could
do it.
know the American people, And know they
will not be at so lax and so misguided But
they must make no mistake.
Let us of America face these new labors, then, in
the spirit of indvidualistic mutuaty-n the spirit of
real democracy.-Samuel Gompers, President Ameri-
Federation of Labor.

But at any rate the government has taken hand
in this situation here in America. In an effort at
financial evangezaton the Secretary of the Treasury
called on William Mather Lewis for assistance.
Since early last summer Mr.. Lewis has beer,
director of the savings division in the Treasury De-
partment. He is the man who is directing the
sale OF thrift stamps, savings stamps and Treasury
saving certificates in all parts of the country.
Here are some cold facts about our improvidence
which Mr.. Lewis sets out:
"Of the 100000 widows in the United States

necessities of life and 100000 of the others lack its

"More than 5,250,000 persons in the United
States compelled ask for food clothing, fuel
and medicine each year-one in every 20 of popu-
lation These figures do not include the inmates of
poorhouses of asylums for the deaf, dumb, blind
and insane Every tenth person who dies in large
city is buried in the potter's field.
"Now we shall never be as solid prosperous and
self-respectng we ought to be if we as people,
continue to spend all that we earn. We should be
Inundated when we think that only 1903 Americans

lean people are in the midst of an orgy of extra
VACANT buying. War has turned everything upside
down. But the reaction will come from one cause or
another. The old habits will be resumed. But that
will not be enough. We must save more than ever
heretofore. There signs that we shall do So
AT this moment, for example, there are 100000
savings societies in the country-soceties operating
under plans formulated by the United States Treasury
Every society is buying Thrift Stamps, War Stamps
and Savings Certificates. Labor unions fraternal or
ders, churches, and Sunday schools are organizing
societies in large numbers.

establishments of Minneapolis. There is Chinese
