Need of Missions Here.

To the Editor. The Washington Herald:
Your article referring to Child

a very good case for the Board of
Foreign Missions to go to work on.
why by the Great Jehoshaphaht are
good people found today who con-
tribute their time. influence and
great wealth in trying to convert
believers in different religions in
different countries to their religion.
which they believe is the only and
true one. when right in their midst
some outrageous. un-Christian acts
take place which, the least to say,
not only smell to Heaven but also
cry and cry loud to Heaven?
Therefore I say the old proverb: !:
Charity commences at home"
probably says IL all. and let the
Board of Foreign Missions show
what results IL (the Board OF For
eign Missions) can achieve in a
case where the Board of Chifdren's
Guardians should not be only CEN
sored. but should have criminal
charges preferred against IT by the
Society for TIE Prevention OF
Cruelty to Children.

upset the whole routine. of Federal offices simply
to please this group or that group.
Washington people have had daylight saving
at least in a modified form. They should be satis-
fed with the chaos created They have been taught
object lesson this summer. 1t is to be hoped
that :he loss of sleep and the many minor nuis-
ances entailed will not be forgotten during the
autumn and winter. There would be occasion for
a good deal of irony IL the same agitation for a
change in the working hours of government clerks
revived next spring.
The District of Columbia has, after all, pecu-
liar climate during the summer months. During
the past week in particular II has been almost i'm
possible to sleep early in the night because of the
terrific heat which has beaten down upon the city.
The early morning hours alone have been suitable
for rest
1t is doubtful whether any more time for
recreation has been provided by the daylight saving
system this summer. Those who frequented the
golf courses and tennis courts early in the morn
ing before the executive order went into effect
were obliged to give this up in order to be at work
on time. When the offices close for the day there
is usually an uncomfortable crowd at all places
where recreation seekers congregate.
In some cities doubtless, daylight saving has
worked to excellent advantage. In a more north
erly climate its benefits are much more apprecable
than in the Middle Atlantic States which are famous
for their uncomfortable afternoons and evenings.
Little can be lost by continuing the present sys-
TEN for the remainder of the summer. District
people by this time have grown more or less IA
mar with its workings; thus its inconvenience
are less apparent. We glad to hear, however,
that it will not be revived next summer

Everglades and Sahara.
To the Editor. The Washington Herald:


Mrs c. l.. seems to be Of the
opinion that those persons. who
like myself. oppose prohibition, de-
sire the re-establishment OF the
liquor saloon We do not desire
any such thing. Although the
saloon had a few redeemtng fea-
lures, it gave employment. II was
the poor mans club" 1t furnished
shelter. warmth and food to many
poor outcasts, 1t was nevertheless
something of a public nuisance,
constant temptation to spend time
and money, and IL is a good thing
that IL Is gone. with its attendant
evils of loafing. treating, unedify-
ing conversation, and occaslonal
brawls. Now that 1t is gone, let
it stay away forever; there are
plenty OF ways in which good,
wholesome wines and liquors could
be distributed to the consumers
without saloons. II prohibition has
accomplished any good at all, II is
due to the abolition of the saloon
and nothing else.
But when we compare the record
of Guilford. England, with over 100
saloons, and only one arrest for
drunkenness in fve years. with the
record of Washington under pro-
hibition, with 1.s45 arrests for
drunkenness in three months.
equivalent to $500 In fve years.
it begins to look like the saloons
are better than prohibition.
Our country was once as moist
as the Everglades: maybe Il will,
as Mrs. c. L. predicts, become as
dry as the Sahara. OF the two evil
things. / think l prefer the Ever

ness to me and my family. In sp-
probation of what the Americsniza-

though IL Is incumbent upon me to
extend a word of praise to the prin-
cipsl of that school. Miss Maude E.

The work Of an Americanization
teacher is, indeed. commendable. as
II imparts to the foreiEn-born sub
jects the wonderful opportunities
afforded to those who become A mrr-
icanized. Every foreigner who
comes here and knows little o.
nothing about our Constitution
should be made to understand that
this Americanization School willing

our plan of government and the
qualifications necessary for the
making of an ideal citizen. Through
experience l have learned that these
instructions have tendency Of
making better American citizens out

forts of Miss Alton and her teach

Talking on Flags.

To the Editor. The WasninEtop herald:
The reported hsrangue that Sena-
tor Frelinghuysen Of New Jersey de-
livered himself OF at Ocean Grove.
in his home State. deserves some com
ment. Frelinghuysen. like most Of
the Fourth Of July make believe In
dependents. according to his reported
speech. had much to say about fags.
Poor. helpless and innocent hags!
II they could only cry out in their
own defense, how much better We
could understand what flags really
stand for. How often they are be-
smirched and dragged in the dirt by
orators of our present-dsy designs!
Left by the public to Judge, possibly
there would be different opinions as
to where the Senator really stands:
under the black" the red flag or
under the Star Spangled Banner"
While under the alleged coat OF de-
ception. often lurk so-called princi-
pals of the black flag" while out
wardly, the Star Spsngled Banner is
used as a canopy under which to de-
fend. stimulate and perpetuate politi-
cal. moral and spiritual vickedness"
in high places.
Mr.. Frelinghuysen and his col
league, Senator Edge. as the report
goes gently criticised" Senator La
Toilette for his criticism OF the al
legged usurped prerogatives in recent
Supreme Court decisions. Agreeable
to the fact that there is an excuse
for the existence of the United States
Senate. IL there were many more OF
the La Toilette type in that august
body, and many less of the FrelIng-
huysen-Edse kind. the influence in
the Senate chamber would be such
that the Congress Of the United States
would be more than a mere figure
head and the appointed tools" OF and
by big business would be COM
PEELED to heed the wishes and inter
est OF the general public. or else lay
aside their black robes OF deception
and hypocrisy. and the laws enacted
by Congress be and remain the voice
of the people. 1t appears that the
writer OF this brief article can almost
see the Senator when he renounced the
red" and the black" flags: turning
extremely red in the face when he
stressfully eulogized the Star Spsngled
Banner. Many of the late war crooks
and 100 per cent patriots 90 that the
government is now looking up for
prosecution. said quite as much of the
poor old S. S. Banner that is so often
used as a screen behind which biz
(reaD Bolshevists, (such as many of
our dignifled law-makers) do their
hellishness. their black nag" depre-
dations, while they hide behind the
floating folds of the Star Spangied
Banner. In conclusion IL might be
well to suggest to the Senator that he
scrutniEe the S. S. Banner more
closely before he makes his next
Fourth-of-July display and he will find
more red in the Banner than any
other color. Without casting any re-
hection on the Star Spangied Banner
IL might be well to FILL in the de-
hciency Of the white. as compared to
the red" in our country's emblem.
by placing a black stripe" so that
some Senators as well as many others
would have some representation, as
well as the reds" and the whites"
