Some day an Edisonian mind will

worn in the buttonhole attached to
the hat brim or dangled from the

ashes.

CHURCH UNION
ON THE JOB

More impressive even than the huge
sum, hundreds of millions of dollars,
which the Interchureh World Move
ment is asking, is the spectacle OF
denominational unity that is present
ed. We have heard much of the dream
of church union. Isn't this fairly
approximate realization? Thirty or
more religious denominations have
Joined hands to help each other in
their noble work of helping the
world. Old rivalries are forgotten.
Jealousies are buried. Where several
denominations have been covering one
field this is to be left to the one best
adapted for the mission. Each is to
make it's influence felt where most
effective. Duplication is to be avoid
ed. Instead of the costly, timewast-
ing, energy-destroyng, haphazard
methods of the past, system is to be
substituted. This is in line with mo-
dern business efficiency and should
appeal to progressive business men.
An extensive, comprehensive program
of improvements has been adopted
There are to be hundreds of new
churches, colleges, schools and mis-
sionary stations where now there are
| none.
Three hundred millions plus seems q
large sum, but it is merely measure
of the task which these churches have
set themselves. 1t illustrates the stu
pendous nature of the job which they

WHAT THE DUMP
PILE CONTAINS

The average American city sends to
the dump thirteen tons of disable
material for every 1000 inhabitants.
Waste material sent to city dump
piles is worth 81 ton. Thus for
every thousand of city population
there is an average of $26 each year
in junk alone.
Of this waste so per cent is old pa
per. Eight trees of mature growth
are required to make ton of pulp. A
ton of waste paper will save these
trees. Two million tons Of lockwood
were manufactured in the United
States from old paper last year. Six
teen million trees would have been sa-
crificed to make this material provid-
ing old paper had not been consumed
Each ton of disable waste carried to
the dump contains 0.007 per cent of
rags. Eight per cent of the value of
a ton made up of this material. Dump
rags can be used in making roofing
felt. To destroy them is to increase
building costs. Clean rags are more
valuable as they can be utilized in
making paper, wiping rags, and other
items.
Two per cent of city waste is COM
posed of tin cans. Based upon the
| approximation of the present popula-
ton of our urban centers, about 49,
900 tons of tin cans are discarded as
industrially unfit.

Enough is Plenty.

Two hundred Syrians from Beirut
were refused passports to England
on the ground that they were not de-
sirable immigrants. Now, it is report
ed, they are on their way to the Unit
ed States.
1t is also reported that when emf
grants from that part of the world
were asked why they wanted to come
to America they said: ITO make mon
ey." When asked how, the answer
invariably was: "Buy and sell
things"
Now these people may be of per-
fectly good character They may be
of good material SO far as they GO
that is, they may in time make good
merchants or middlemen, competent
buyers and sellers.
But they represent a type of immi-
grafton that this country surely does
not need. The Chicago News says it in
these words, and the thought in them
is one that this country must begin
to give very serious heed to
In the United States now there are
too many people buying and selling
things of them rebuying and
reselling the same things-and too
| few workers producing things. Prin-.
cipally to that fact the country is in
debted for the present extravagant
cost of living. It is not time to be-
gin the process of selection of immi-
grafton that will give the country good
producers of things rather than mere
/ sellers of things?
Surely this country has enough buy
ers and sellers of things Palpably it
has not enough producers of things.
One of the most dangerous symp-
toms of the present hour is that the
country has not enough producers of
food. With congested cities still
| growing, the shortage of farm labor
is everywhere curtailing food produc-
ton; and curtailment of food produc-
ton in times like this carries impIi-
cations of grave if not menacing con-
sequence.
i Fewer buyers and sellers of things
especially fewer rebuyers and resell
lers of things-and more producers
of things; this is a great and vita
need of this country.

Red Cross to Aid in
Return of Soldier Dead

In making plans for the return of
the soldier dead from France in ac-

the War Department has arranged
with the American Red Cross for Red

its Home Service Sections throughout
the country. The War Department,
upon notifying the next of kin of the
time of arrival of the bodies, will send

A situation arose recently within
one Red Cross Division that made clear
the necessity of the cooperation
which has been worked out. In this
instance, because of a change of ad-

to receive from the War Department

turned dead. Upon learning through

League of Women Voters urges every
woman to become an enrolled voter
but as an organization it shall be al
lied with and support no party
The league exists because women
see definite things which are needed
in our social structure which men
voters have never seen clearly enough
to establish, because by organization
certain great purposes and ideals of
women can be accomplished which in
dividual women or individual groups
cannot bring about, because these
needed changes can be secured by the
spread of information, education of
the public, pressure brought to bear
on congress and on the state legisla-
lures to pass the necessary laws and
to rouse public opinion to secure their
enforcement, because some progress
sive ideas have been enacted into
laws in the various states and the
great need is to secure these laws
which have proved practical and sat
isfactory for all other states in the
union and because the league will
serve as a rallying point for these ma
tional and state needs which so far
women have seen more clearly than
men.
It proposes to work by education,
legislation and organization. By edu-
cation directly in the form Of citizen
ship schools and classes to make
every woman an intelligent voter, &C
quainted with processes Of govern
ment and voting, informed as to citi-
zenship rights and duties and aroused
to the need of certain national and
state reforms. Indirectly it will work
by spreading knowledge of great leaks
in our social structure and by sug-
gestions for improvements. This
method is developed in the work of
standing committees which investi-
gate, collect and sort data as to ex-
listing needs. These standing commit
tees are each headed by woman who
is an expert in her line. They are
