forced by the inspectors of the de-
partment, There are now over 1O3,-
600 licensed cars In Oregon, To

the city Of Columbia, many persons
are too much engrossed in the busi-
ness of making q livingto pause to plan
an elaborate celebration Those who
might have handled it are weary Of
public "doings" just now. So, it has
remained for the men more weary
than all, the veterans Of the last war.
to take in charge the honoring OF
their fighting national ancestors.
The arrangement committee Of the
American Legion and the Veterans Of
Foreign Wars has requested all chi-
zens to fly the flag and national col
ors from sunrise to sunset Sunday
and Monday Any citizen who neg
lects to do that little bit on Independ-
ence Day is a sorry patriot indeed.
All Columbians who can should be
proud to minsle with the veterans in
the patriotic program at the Hall
Theater next Monday Afternoon.
The former service man. despitr

life, is, after all. the man who best
remembers those who died to keep
the Nations life.
Cooperate with the former service

COLUMBIA SUNDAY SCHOOLS

Reports made Al the recent meeting
of the Efficiency conference Of the
Boone County Sunday School Associa-
tion in Columbia brought out some
facts about the attendance at Sunday
school in the county which should be
eye openers. The fact that should
attract most attention is that in Co
lumbia, where young people are sup
posed to get training that will tend
toward making them able to handle
all the problems of the country, the
enrolment in Sunday school is only
SITS and the average attendance is
1861.
Columbia is a very strategic place
from the standpoint of the churches.
BY training the University students
in the Sunday school the churches
may enable him to go out into the
state and lead in the work of the
church in whatever community he
may be.
The time to get ready for the
work OF taking care Of the students
who come this fall and getting them
in the Sunday schools is now. The
people Of the entire state can well
afford to help their denominations in
Columbia Columbians should not
hesitate to ask them to do it, Colum-
bia has good pastors and assistant
pastors, but they are not able to come
in personal touch with all the stu
dents. More assistant pastors and
personal workers are needed. The
churches Of Columbia should have as
their slogan this fall Get every stu
dent in the Sunday school,"

Strenuous objections to the parti-
cipation of Red Cross officials in po-
litical campaigns was voiced by Fred
erick C. Munroe, general manager oi
the American Red Cross. Of Wash
ington, in a communication recently
received at Southwestern divisional
headquarters of the Red Cross at St.
Louis.
The letter, in part, follows:
in view of the already widespread
activities in behalf OF the many can
didates in connection with the coming
general election it seems advisable
to invite your attention to the fact
that the American Red Cross-em-
bracing in its membership as it does
adherents Of every faith and party
is and must always be maintained as
an organization OF purely non-parti-
san and non political character. The
necessity for keeping before the pub
lie at all times the non-political char
acter of the organization demands
the earnest thought and cooperation
of all Red Cross officials and mem
bers.
Where Red Cross officials are ac-
tually candidates for office the dan
ger of Misunderstanding in the public
mind is always present. and We have
recommended that In such cases it
would be probably best for these Of
ficials to resign from their Red Cross
Offices"

VISITING NURSE HAS BUSY JUNE


Babies for hsuranoe Co.
Miss Willie p. Bryant. visiting
nurse, says she has been buster the
'ast month than in any June during
her six years Of service in Columbia.
She made one hundred and sixty
five visits to sick persons last month.
This would seem to indicate that
there is great deal Of sickness in Co.
lumbia, but this is not true. The Wis
its we're due to the fact that she has
been able to care for mothers with
newborn babes.
This was not charity work. She
was paid for her visits by the Metro
politan Life Insurance Company. The
Charity Organization has per-
mitted her to do this work.
The Metropolitan Company is now
employing nurses in cities alf over
the United States because 1t realizes
as a business proposition the value
OF nursing in saving and prolonging
the lives Of mothers who are policy
holders.
Cases are reported to Miss Bryant
through the agent who goes into the
home every week to collect; by the
family physician, or by members Of
the family.
Miss Bryant has cared for six new
babies this month. She helped with
five operations for the removal Of ad-
enoids and tonsils. These cases were
called to attention through school in
spection.
Thirty-four Of her visits have been
to the offices of physicians to report
the condition Of patients as she left
them each day.
Sixteen of the calls were made ir
the interest of the work. She visited
aid societies and gave information
and advice as to where and how they
may use their services to the best ad-
vantage
She made in all two hundred and
fifteen calls last month.

are enough healthy elements Ia
save civilization.
Out Of the war period there has
grown up In many minds q severe
reaction against the militaristic
and materialistic view of life
against war and needless suffer-
ing, against the reign Of force,
But after the long habit Of SOL
diering" by Europeans and for a
briefer time by Americans. there
remains with many service men
and with many large elements Of
the general public a faint Of mill
tary philosophy-unconcern for hu-
man life; disregard Of property:
disregard Of the sanctity of wom-
anhood. There have arisen numer-
GUS social evils; the restoration Of
The cigaret habit and the prize
tight; and the promiscuous dance.
For millions Of civilians in Eu-
| rope and America, everything has
| been dislocated; old landmarks
have vanished: habits shattered;
beliefs thrown away.
Inc same article discusses the
prevalence OF actual lawlessness.
The matter is in all European
newspapers. and it is reflected in
news columns OF this country.
! Lawlessness Of two classes ex-
lists: Passionate crime. which
springs from sex Irregularities
and brutal crime, which springs
from disregard of property and
person.

In Paris there were 1t the end Of
last year 10000 suits for divorce

Violence ID for more prevalent
than before the war. German
newspapers are full Of horrors.
British journals record brutal in
cidents daily. Much Of this finds
its parallel in America, especially
In great centers: burgiaries, the
connivance Of police officers with
gamblers, thieves. liquor dealers,
and through lowest forms Of vice !:
the release Of the worst criminals
by pardon boards; plots by which
millions are forced to suffer want
for the selfish ends of q few; the
suspected plots, in waiting, for
May l.
The standing illustration is the
lawlessness Of the liquor trafic.
Last week liquor dealer, several
times convicted, awaiting commit
ment on a 20 days sentence, at

Ger sent to bring him to begin his
sentence.
And on the largest scale every

Of the spirit of lawlessness today.

One great need of the American
mind and conscience is q new en-
phasis upon the dignity and invio-
liability of law.

tence which the American people
might we'll repeat at each meal for

The Perfect Law II Liberty.
Love Is the crowning quality
OF the perfect law OF liberty" I
can name to you a living illustra-
ton OF it.
me law of duty and service in
the heart Of a young mother is
the perfect law of liberty"
She has no anarchistic thoughts
about deserving her duty to her
oaDy. Is she true to her babe? Yes,
society demands it OF her. Does
she weigh the question of duty with
a covert wish to evade it? A great
wellspring of love gushes up in her
heart; she is the servant of love:
she is prisoner to love. Like Paurs
love to Christ, captive, prisoner,
bondservant, bound by love. Like
Chr1st's love to the Father. He
loved to do the will of the Father;
it was His supreme passion.
Though abroad He had liberty.
Love Universal.
have said the law of liberty is
universal. Likewise the principle
OF lawlessness takes many forms.
and is always disastrous. The re-
usal to recognize the laws of living
in society: reputation Of obliga-
ton; lawless grasping; encroach-
ment upon the rights of others;
employer reluctant to give a fair
wage. employed refusing fair
days work. is at the bottom of the
unrest, disturbing and menacing
the peace of the world. Men are
working less and wanting more.
Perhaps both are valid demands
within limits.

It is the uniformity Of these

Of men have risen who perversely
