 ceived no opposition were it properly acquired German territory. Germany had forced its way into possession of it as the result of the Boxer rebellion. so when 1t was driven out it was only right that it hould so back to China For Japan to have held it would have added fuel to the neighhorhood TOW. Japan knew how the other nations felt about it, and 1t also understood the at tltude toward China. It sought the op- pertunity to reach an agreement without others interfering. It obtained it and it has now demonstrated that it's prom ises mean something. At least tht signing of the agreement must be re- garded as the real forerunner of ttS retirement from Shantung and a dem- onstraton of the fact that it is really desirous of peace in the far east.
 There is no question but what Japan could have made excellent use of Shan tung in it's policy of expansion, but it will gain more in the position it holds among nations by the course that it is pursuing.

NOT GOVERNED BY PUBLIC NEEDS

Many there are vino recognize the importance of working on holidays, quite the same as on others, in order that special requirements may be met. This doesn't, however. hold good in she coal fields, There they must have their holidays, and holidays are as numerous if not more so than Sundays in some sections
 Under ordinary conditions when pro- auction Is normal the closing down of the mines for holidays does not seri- ously affect the consumer, but that can not be said at the present time wnes the consumer is unable to get sufficient coal because of the prolonged holiday that the coal miners took through the entire summer. Even though their re- fusal to work created a serious short age they are not willing even now to forego a holiday and insist upon stop- ping production quite Gs if the country had all the coal it desired.
 This Is shown by the report of the geological survey which shows the pro- duction of just about half the quantity of coal this year that was mined last year up to this time, and yet the oblisa- ton to the coal consumer to make an extra effort to overcome the deficit .n production makes no appeal to the min CTS when there IS the least preteN fo. observing a holiday by loafng.
 Under the present conditions !a gives the railroads an opportunity to catch up in the movement of coal trains, but the situation would be just the same Il transportation was 100 per cent eff. cient and empty trains were waiting tt be filled. It is a situation that prevails sn the coal fields under normal condi tions and one there is no inclination tc abandon even during an emergency.
 And yet coal is one Of the things up on which great dependence is placed by great proportion of the people of tn. country. It can be imagined what { howl would go up if the railroads di, not run trains or trolley lines failed tt provide service every time the employe insisted upon observing frequent ho!i days.

PROMOTING BETTER RELATIONS.

By tho inviting to Washington of tho delegates of the Central American countries, this government Is endeav- bring to render service that will be beneficial to all of them. The purpose is peace and the conservation of the in terests of the respective republics with out any purpose on the part of this gov ernment other than that it may help In the accomplishment of such an end for the benefit that will follow to all con cerned, directly and indirectly.
 Because the invitation was extended and accepted, and the conferelre has been opened, does not necessarily mean that the object aimed at will be accom- plished There hasn't existed between those nations that spirit of get together for the good of all that would insure success. Even though it has not been possible in the past for them to join hands for mutual protection and tue improvement of relationship attempts have been made in that direction. This is a new one on somewhat different lines, and as the result of the suggss- ton by the United States rather than by any one of tho Central American countries.
 Secretary Hughes therefore made tho most of the opportunity in welcoming the delegates to impress upon them the important facts that this country wa' prompted only by the desire to do eY' erything in it's power to bring the con ference to a successful issue. "and tha the United States has" no ambition tt gratify at your expense, no policy whicl runs counter to your national aspira tions, and no purpose save to promote the interests of peace and to assist yol in such manner as you may welcome t' solve your problems to your own prop CT advantage"
 The endeavor to bring about peac and good will among these nations ! the same policy that was disclosed the successful conference between Chi and Peru, and in the extension of ali and protection to island republics. I the delegates rise to the opporcunlt. and appreciate the chance to help them selves the conference should result ]. action that has long been needed.

While you are reading those enter taining advertisements, suggested tn man with the near whiskers, ''just re member to note down any place whicl offers tear bombs for sale. will you?"
 Would they be in the householi utensils%' absent-mmdedly asked tn, wife, who had just found a sale of $9S dresses for $16.S5.
 "They should be-" the husband with near whiskers assured her. But the commercial mind is singularly slow in grabbing on to world beaters, so no doubt you can't find them on the coun- ter next the aluminium double boilers and skillets. I am very anxious to pro cure some since I read about their vir- tues when their invention was an- nounced.
 ''In the first place, they are convenient because they are the size of an orange and a lady can carry one in her shop ping bag just as well as not while man could easily accommodate a couple in- side his derby hat.
 Up to date, bombs have been cumber- some affairs not at all suited to family use. Anybody who had use for bomb of any sort was obliged to haul it behind him on an express wagon or get a mes senger boy or send it parcel post, and the public simply Vill not use commodi- ties which cause them so much trouble When I consider the infinite possibilities | of tear bomb I am amazed" Whatever are you taking about ?' demanded the wife, who had now dis covered a sale of SIS shoes for $3.9S in small sizes, her number being large one.
 When a tear bomb bursts" kindly explained the husband with near whisk- CTS, ''the person 1t bursts at is instantly awash with tears. He may feel no more | like weeping than does the ice magnate | when the summer turns extra hot, but his emotions simply have nothing to do with it. Right in the midst of a scorn- ful laugh he finds himself shedding per 1 feet streams of tears.
 l "A child of 6 could see the possibili- ties. When 8 hold-up man sticks a gun against your chest and demands your

A Little Talk on Thrift
ProcrnstinatioA.

In reviewing the year which is now fast slipping from our grasp. we can rest assured that if we have gone through it without practicing thrift, it can be set down as a wasted period in our lives. For thrift is at the founda- tion ot all substantial success in life.
 It is matter of secondary consid- eration whether ones income during this period has been greater or smaller than before. If one has earned more than previously and has nothing 70 show for it, his success is not equal 10 that of the person who has not been able to earn so much, but who has been practicing thrift, and therefore has something to show for the years ac- complishments.
 Very few persons are purpusely or willfully thriHless. Lack of thrift is n most cases the result of procrastina- tion. Many Of those who are not a place where circumstances or per sonal convenience will permit of their saving money.
 But do not allow yourself to be re- ceiyed by any such false reasoning Generally speaking, it is just as easy tc begin thrift one time as another. Ii may seem to you that in the future you will find that even though conditions may apparently improve with you the temptation to waste your financial re- sources is just as strong.
 The coming New Year will be a mos suspicious time for the beginning Of 2 thrifty life. Do not procrastinate, nc matter what your circumstances in life may be.
 Make the start.
 Resolve that when this period come. around next year you will have some thing to show for your time and labor These eHd-of -the-year days constitute an onportnne time for the start in thrift practices-S. w. Straus, president American Society for Thrift.

PUBLIC FIRE ALARMS.

When special efforts are made to ac- compllsh a special object it is occasion ally the case, that just the opposite re- suit is obtained. And yet it is not in- frequently the case that result proves revelation leading to the taking Of long needed action.
 Washington has been having safety week relative to street traffic, and 1t was a bit distressing that during that particular week there should have been two bad accidents in which the fire de- partment in responding to alarms was involved resulting not only in damage to the vehicles involved but causing se- rious if not fatal injuries.
 Speed is to be expected in connection with fire apparatus going to fires, bat what that means in congested streets where the traffic has no warning of a fire until the approach of the apparatus is heard is not difficult to imagins. Washington is by no means the only city that is suffering from that situa- ton. Springfield has been awakened to the importance of a public alarm of some sort that will give warning to the street traffic in time to give the appara- tus a clear street There is good req son for feeling that it is entitled to it. The value of quick response to fires IS easily understood. and ar the same time the bell or the siren that tells the man in the street that there's a fire gives him a chance to cooperate with the de- partment to the extent ef getting out of the way of the fire apparatus. It is a safety provision although that may not have been the reason why 1t was es- tablished.
 In view of traffic conditions and the need of quick responses to fires the wonder is that there are not more acci- dents than there are. especially in thost cities where the traffic and the traf1lc officers have no warning until they see the machines coming down the street The collisions which the drivers of fire apparatus find it impossible to avoii are invariably those that could have been prevented had a fair warning beer given to the traffic. Springfield appre ciates this fact in urging the return pt the public alarm which had been dis continued because it annoyed some peo pie.

American Education
The Teaching of Patriotism

Where the state has bestowed edu- cation the man who accepts it must be content to accept it merely as a charity unless he returns it to the state in tuif in the shape of good citizenship.-The- odore Roosevelt.
 A famous French writer and humani- tartan, Victor Hugo, has said: "Open a school and close prison" There is a profound truth and great ideal enn- bodied in this short but significant sen tence. Education is the torch bearers of civilization; it illumines the dark places of the world where ignorance, vice, and squalor exist side by side. Under it's ameliorating influence it dispels evil and inculcates good. It broadens the vision of humanity and makes for tolerance and better living. It is a moral and spirit ualizing force.
 It is through enlightenment that American institutions will be perpetual ed. When men learn the truth about economic and social problems they will not so easily be led away by demogogues.
 A vitalized program of patriotism and ciyics, based not only on love of coun- try but on common-sense understand ing of our constitutional form of govern ment and it's benefits would do much to eradicate the insidious doctrines preached by ultra-radieals. Patriotic societies can aid materially in this great work. In ey- cry possible way such organizations should uphold the free school system oi the country-the great melting pot oi lnc republic, in which the children Of the foreign-born are fused into the citl- zenry of the nation. Respect for Une naA the rights and duties of citizenship. tol' eration of individual religious opinions and education for service to humanity are the ideals to be striven for in any sucf program of education.
 Our patriotic societies can do mucf constructive work in encouraging anC aid such organizations as Boy and Cir Scouts, Community Centers and other as sociations having to do with the uplif and betterment of the people.
 Let the slogan be-an American flag oi every school house.
 The American flag is widely used as
 means of teaching patriotism, and tn tendency is to make it's use universal il 1 the schools of the country. Properl.
