GENERAL O=FicES * NIW YORK AND CHICAGO APANT ACS 1N ANV I PRINCIPAL CITIFT Give and Grow by Giving. The appeal of the Associated Char- ities for money to carry on its help- tul ‘activities, and the discussion of its’ work that has been = generated théreby, should serve to bring home to the individual the whole question of giving. The wisest of men once said that it is more blessed to give than tc receive, recalls the Minneapolis Jour nal. " There is sound philosophy in that saying, as has been demonstrat- ed“many a time. Giving actually strengthens and broadens a man. It hetps him to grow. It sets him a-tin- gle with the satisfaction a good deed always brings. But only if the g!vmg involves something of personal sacrifice, doe: it reach its full measure of benefit to ‘the giver. This is illustrated by the parable of the widow’s mite. The lesson of sacrifice in giving was pith- ily put in President’s Vincent’s dec- laration that this is a time to give ‘“‘until /it hurts.” The Associated Charities repre- sents an opportunity for individual giving in the best way. It is for- tunate that there still remains to the individual giver such an opportunity. It i fortunate that the work of re- lief has not entirely been turned over to the city, but that much of it is sill available for the personal touch, the individual contact. It would be easy to spread the whole amount of money necessary to be raised for charity on the tax rolls, It _would be practicable to have the work all done by public officials. In this way the burden would be equally divided, and no one enjoying the comforts of home would need to worry about his duty to the poor. But what an opportunity we should all miss to {benefit ourselves by generous giving, if the tax re- ceipt covered all charity, too! Even if thé poor and the unfortunate were wéll ‘cared for, there would be a dis- tinct loss to the individual, deprivec¢ of the chance to make sacrifices for the 'sake of giving. That is one of the best reasons for the maintenance of the Associated Chiarities—it enables us all to give and 'to grow by giving.

The place to be happy is now. The way ‘to'be happy is to help make others 80.” And it is noticeable that those who go on this principle are the ones who seem to be getting the most out of ° life—Virginia Vir- ginian. —— Judge Catlin, in lolding the mini- mum wage law to be unconstitution- al,-undoubtedly has good grounds to rest his decision on: If it is right for tire state law to fix a price below which no person may sell his labor, it would be equally right for the state law to fix a price below which no ‘farmer may sell his products. No- body would indorse a law ‘of the lat- terkind; yet there arethose who in- -derse -the former, although exactly the same in principle ‘as the latter. —Red ‘Wing Eagle. —— In scanning the lists of the newly elected ‘members of the Minnesota leg"fil'nture, both of the house and 'of the ‘Senate, one is struck with the gréat préponderance of the level- ‘headed, practical men.

The decoration was pinned upon Mr. Herrick’s “coat ‘as’ soon as’ tHe 'steam- er réached the threemile sea Hmit of Amer{éan * sovereignty. ~ ‘Announce- ment of the bestowal ‘of the Horor was made when the Rochambesu docked. The grand cross”of ‘the Tegion of Honor is the highest Honor which the French government can bestow. There are, including Mr. Herrick, only forty‘five “Hvilig “persons’ who have been thus decorated. "3 Given Spectacular Reception. A spectacular reception was given the Tetiring ambassador and his wife when the vessel' docked. The ‘passen- gers, nearly all natives of France, lined the rail and cheered'as Mr. and Mrs. Herrick walked down the gang plank, and the cheering was taken up by hun- dreds of persons who had gone to the pier to greet him on ‘béhalf of the city, state, nation and the atate ol Ohio. Mr. Herrick appeared to be annoy- ed when he heard that he had been mentioned for the 1916 Republlcnn presidential nomination. Mr. Herrick declined to say when'he thought the war would be over. ' Mra. Herrick said that she did not believe that any of the stories concerning al- leged German atrocities were true. “I do not know of any case of suf- ficilent convincing proof has been of- fered concerning the so' called atroci- ties,” she said.” “When the war ‘and excitement is over, I'am sure nm all such stories will be found ground less.” AGGRESSIVE ACTION NOT IN.NAGO PLAN Washington, Dec. 10.—No aggressive action on the part of the United States is intended in the sending of additional troops to Naco, Ariz.'
