Black, scout executive. One of the most important recommendations in connection with the report is the suggestion of a;mastered the Schacfer method of art- new site for next year's camp as more quickly than Europe because our people are termined to work them out, but we are not going clear up everything im the next few months. P “We will foster our foreign trade, but it must be a safe basis. We must buy foreign goods if we are to sell our products to other nations, and ‘collect great sums they already owe us. By what magic can we expect to have large foreign commerce if our com- merce raises an insurmountable tariff wall against for- eign goods, and how can we expect payment? If we could drain the rest of the world of gold we would simply force other nations to a paper currency s and what good would such a hoard of gold do us in that event?” it A! i the approval i full en. 1 i i if oo NOT ALL BY LAW. “We have a prohibition clause in the Constitution,” asserts a writer in the Epworth Herald. “It is prop- erly there and it ought to be thoroughly enforced, in New York as well as in Maine and North Dakota. “Its enforcement is not easy, and in many quarters it is not popular. The rebellious minority blames the churches for the law, and not without abundance of reason. “We may as well admit that the Christian faith and its professors are disliked today, positively and definitely, by many Americans who heretofore have searcely given a thought to religion. “What troubles me is that we may be in danger of thinking that all the ends #f the Gospel can be se- cured by law, and particularly by law which forever suys: ‘Thou shalt not.’ Jesus, our Lord, did not al- ways teach men so. He left something to persuasion, to forgiveness, to tolerance, to love. “J do not plead for s-wered standards or for a church silent in the presence of grave evils. But there are churches with penal enactments in their own laws, and the success of those enactments has not been brilliant enough to arouse much faith in more laws to make people conform to churchly rules. “Tf we could see the pictare of the Christian church “Altogether I feel that the only room for criticism is in a few of the smal! details.

Complaints from the homes of citizens, of sneak thieves entering and purloining women’s apparel, mul- tiply. And in the same ratio failure of the police de- pertment to recover the raiment, detect the thieves and cause arrest and punishment, is recorded. In- stances of similar character have been so frequent as to cause speculation as to whether or not there was a@n organized band engaged in systematic looting. The strange feature of the many cases coming to no- tice is that nothing else in the home is disturbed, no other valuables taken, the stealing confined exclusive- ly to women’s clothing and finery, In many of the in- stances the entire possessions were carried away, leav- ing nothing to clothe the lady of the house except what she wore at the time of her absence from home. Why the specialty in woman’s wear? Is the un- answered question that puzzles everybody. There could be several explanations, any one of which might be the right answer. It is possible that there were a number of women here or elsewhere short of cloth- ing and desired covering against the approaching un- kind blasts of winter, It could be an irresistible desire for finery on the part of those who have not, coupled with an uncontrollable impulse to exploit those who have. Again it could be the convenience with which a lady’s wardrobe can be transported, respecting both bulk and weight, the assertion being made by those best informed, that an entire complement can be moved from place to place in an ordinary shirt box under the arm of a courageous determined woman. However, mysterious details and wise spéculations do not modify the fact that Casper women are beiticg despoiled of their prized habiliments and ‘nothing. is being done about it. SEER ES ES Fs IT DEPENDS ON YOURSELF. As long as you stand around expecting the govern- ment to lead you back to normalcy you are not going to get anywhere. The only thing you can reasonably expect the United Stetes government to do in the mat- ter is to make it possible and point the way. This it has done beginning last March 4. It has set the ex- ample in industry, frugality, business morality and all other essentials that lead directly to the conditions for which you have prayed and hoped. It can no more | bring you personal prosperity and happiness by act of congress than it can legislate brains into the back of your head. Unless you join your government and go along ith it, performing your part under its lead- ership, showing your faith by your daily works, one of two things will happen to you. You will be left standing in your tracks crying in vain for the help you must render yourself, or you will be run aver by the others who are willing to join the march onward to better things. It is altogether a state of mind into which you have drifted. by reason of the calm after war exci*»ment. I: is sot cured by drifting further, it is cured only by resuming the oars, facing the boat about and apply- ing muscle against the current in the upstream jour- ney. Vio a Ra SE CANADA'S GENERAL ELECTION. Our neighbor Canada is in the throes of a general election, the first since 1911, on purely domestic is- sues, when the Liberal government under the leader- ship of Sir Wilfrid Laurier was wrecked on the rock of reciprotity. The 1917 election was devoted ex- clusively to war issues which at the time dominated all social and political relations. It is the avowed purpose of Premier Meighen, as in- dicated by his keynote speech of the campaign, to at- tempt to retain power on the issues of reciprocity nnd lower tariff, thus reversing the position of the parties in the campaign of 1911, and placing himself in fa- vor of the identical policies which he opposed in that memorable campaigr:. The Liberal party is led by the rising young states- man King upon whose shoulders the mantle of Laurier has fallen. A third party, the Farmers, has in the last few years risen and secured, many seats in the Dominion parliament. It is led by Crerar, its candi- date for premier. The three cornered fight is any- body’s until the ballots are cast and countea. There never was an élection in Canada with more interesting possibilities. There are no party machine organizations in the old sense. They were smashed beyond repair during the war and when Union gov- ernment was organized. The new structures must be built from the ground up. Crerar it is expected will bring a solid west, King a solid Quebec to Ottawa. ‘Ontario will be therefore the great battleground. Its present representatives are almost exclusively Meighen supporters. But sitice 1917 it has in provincial affairs gone over to the farm- ers. The latter boast that in this home of protection they will carry half the seats. a WE LEAD IN RECOVERY. Arthur Reynolds, well known throughout the west and middle west who rose from a small town banker in Iowa to the presidency of the great Continental and Commercial National bank of Chicago, has returned from a three month’s visit in Europe. He gives a rather gloomy view of European conditions but of America he says: “The United States has gone further than any other nation in liquidation because we have compelled it all in the mind of today’s non-Christian American, the chances are that it would show a joy-killing, narrow- minded company of ignorant, bigoted meddlers in other people's affairs. “The picture is not true, and it has been drawn, in jarge part, by unscrupulously cunning propagandists who hate Christianity as did the silversmiths of Ephesus. “All the more we need to give freedom and breadth and beauty of our faith a larger opportunity to be seen of men.” careful selection of cook and helpers and by having sufficient adult super- vision in the camp to assign one offi. ¢lal to supervise the mess. tation costs this year to- talled $318,464, a reduction of $102.02 under last year. The securing of a camp site where the use of a team would not be necessary would reduce this much more, it is pointed out. Among other expenses the list shows - $2c2.23 for employes, $834.70 for vom- missary supplies and $905.89 for per. manent equipment, the total expendi- tures amounting to $2,456.88. Receipts of the camp were in the form of dues, collection of which has not been com: pleted. A charge of $5 for each of the one-week periods was mado.

What do Mr. Volstead and the other ‘Pures’ among prohibition statesmen think of this base at- tempt to evade our laws, this deliberate escape from ordered American virtue into European sin? “Tt is an insult to be borne that unworthy Amer. icans, unable to flout the regime of dryness at hom: should go abroad and there publicly advertise their shameful thrist and revel in the Continental means of slaking it. There should be an embargo on the ex- portation of wets. No American should be allowed to leave these shores Unless he promises to practice total abstinence in the foreign capitals of iniquity.

It seems rather a sensible suggestion that automo- biles which are frequently equal in value to a house and lot, should be dealt with in the matter of record- ng purchase, ownership and transfer exactly the same as is done in real property and certain kinds of chattel properiy. The requirement should be uniform in all the states and recorded in city and state which would by the same act legally sanction the sale. Such a plan would reduce to the minimum the thett of cars by affording better facilities for tracing ‘them when they are stolen. r In property of the value of gn automobile the state should afford equal protection to the owner as is done in the case of the home. The purchaser ot a car these days, unless it be a new car from an authorized agent, is never certain of the title and never knows when he will be called upon to surrender it to :1 owner having a better title. ‘ ‘ ‘The widespread practice of stealing automobiles is one of the growing crimes of civilization and the states should step in and aid local police and sheriffs to protect the property of the people in any manner possible for it to assist.

The creation of a federal board on purchasing and liquidation by Director Dawes for co-operation in sales and purchases by the executive departments is applying business principles and sense to a situation in government that has run at loose ends since the government came into existence. Standardization and systemization will now succeed old methods that have been accumulating abuses for many years. If it were possible for the government to get its business af- fairs upon some such basis of; management as prac- ticed by the large corporations of the country mil- lions of waste could be saved and the war debt would be rapidly diminished.
