There was no mention Of you

You weren't here when I call

REFUSES TO TALK

IF you've got the idea you
can't be quoted in the newspapers

NIGHT DRIVING

Food as a preventive Of night
traffic accidents!
Not as fantastic as it sounds, the
Keystone Automobile Club tells
motorists, in an article by William
Ullman, noted writer on automotive
topics, in the current issue of Key
stone Motorists.
Declaring that recent investiga-
tions by scientists in the Bureau
of Home Economics, U. s. Depart
ment of Agriculture, have proved
that insufficient vitamin A in food
renders one subject to night blind
ness or inability to see in dim light,
he says the Bureau is rounding out
it's studies to determine just how
much of the vitamin the human
body needs daily under normal con-
ditions.
While the Club is of the opinion
that persons who have difficulty
with night driving should obtain
competent professional advice relat-
ing to proper diet, 1t quotes the
Federal investigators as saying COM
mon sources of Vitamin A are yell
low and leafy green vegetables, egg
yolks, whole milk, and orange and
tomato juice.

ONLY -FOUR RELIEF GROUPS
ABLE TO GET SUPPLIES
INTO EUROPE

Il OF the 538 recognized groups col
lecting funds for the relief of Eur
ope, only four are now able to send
money and supplies abroad without
difficulty. They are the American
Red Cross, which recently sent
shipload of food, clothing and medi-
cal supplies to Europe; the Ameri-
can Friends Service Committee,
whose representatives in Toulouse,
France, are able to use money col
lected to buy food and supplies; the
Queen Wilhelmina Fund, Inc, which
sends money through its U. S.
Treasury Department. license to the
unoccupied portions of France, and
to Switzerland and Spain to help
refugees from Holland; the Com
mission for Polish Relief, which is
able to buy food for Lithuania and
ship it into Poland to feed an esti-
mated 100000 children congre-
gated in the Warsaw area.
Other groups continue to raise
funds on the theory that they will
eventually be able to use them in
the conquered and oppressed areas.
ANY aid they are now able to send
is subject to chance, as they have
no relief channels constantly open
to them. OF the organizations reg
istered with the State Department
in Washington, d. c., on August
1st, 1911 are for the relief of Poland,
131 for France, "a for England, 81
for Germany, 15 for Belgium, for
Norway, z for Holland, for Italy,
and 8 for Luxembourg. Most of them
were organized in the East.
Between September 1, 1899, and
July 1, 1910, the American Red
Cross collected $20,143,230 and
spent in Europe $7,324,824. This
money went largely for medical aid,
food and shelter for refugees. All
other registered agencies collected
in the same period, $8,384,095 and
$3,228,070, less an unknown amount
for operating expenses, remains un-
spent.

SCHOOL DAYS

The children of this community
and countless others throughout our
land, are flocking back to school
this week, marking the beginning OF
aonther period of study and training.
According to tradition, each child
plods along unwillingly, to tackle
the problems of spelling, grammar,
geography and all the rest OF the
studies, together with the more COM
plicated subjects of the high school.
But most pupils, as matter OF fact,
enjoy going to school today. The
long vacation play was fun but there
are also many pleasures and attrac-
lions in school life. Study is varied
and made as interesting as possible
from the human interest point OF
view. It is interspersed with other
activities that are enlightening as
well as recreational.
The friendships that are born and
fostered with school life form one
of the greatest drawing cards to the
student of any age in fostering the
desire to go back to school. From
first grade childhood to the mature
friendships of high school age, the
chums of school days are dear to
every boy and girl. They are often
lifelong Affairs and If not, because
of separation, the memory is always
a bright one.

THE TRADITION OF THE DRAFT

A great deal has been said to the
effect that the draft-selective COM
pulsory military service, to give 1t
its full and accurate title-is grave
and Hateful departure from Ameri-
can tradition.
The facts are that George Wash
linton favored universal military
training in the militia, that several
States drafted men into the militia
during the Revolutionary War, and
that both the Federal and Confed-
crate Governments invoked con-
scription during the Civil War. The
Selective Service Act of 1917 in the
World War represented great i'm
provement in fairness of the system
by which men were classified to be
drawn. 1t is on that basis the Burke
Wadsworth Bill proposes to build
today.
The departure, if there is one, lies
in the fact that the draft for military
training now is proposed in what is
rather euphemistically called peace
time" In so far as the term implies
that the United States is not engag-
ed in war it is technically accurate.
But period when war is rampant
in as many parts of the world as it
is today can scarcely be time OF
complete peace anywhere.
If it be conceded that tradition has
been to wait till war had arrived be-
fore applying CONSUMPTION, it may
be pointed out also that the war in
Europe today is no traditional war.
Poland, and to some extent Nor
way and the Netherlands, were
overrun before even organized re-
serves could be fully modified and
find their positions. If this be the
case, would an attack in the West
ern Hemisphere wait for the United
States to raise and train an army
by volunteering? The Monitor.
