It is sratifeing arn that re- sults are being obtained from the ef- forts which have been made to bring about a better cooperation hetween the shippers and the raiiroads of = the country.

There are supplies, raw and finished products, war materials and troops which have got to moved from points in this country to the seaboard before they can be sent abroad. There must be cars in order to do this. Ev- ery bit of car space must be taken advantage of. Every of motive sower must be utilized, for efficient service Is an factor in at- ining the cess desired, but it Is highly important that every effort should be bent to turning out as much rallroad roliing stock to meet this need as can possibly e obtained.

There-hfiy beer no small amount of ty and a widespread division m:‘% regarding the application of the law for the exemption of mar- ried men from service in the national army. It has been interpreted in one way in some localities and in another way In others, resulting in exemp- tions or denial of exemptions in ac- cordance with the way in which that provision of the law has been resard- ed in the various parts of the country. This confusion has brought about a situation which called for a ruling upon this_polnt and such has been made by President Wiison In such a manner that there “ought to Dbe no further trouble from that source. This makes it clear that marriags alone is not a sufficlent ground for excusing & voung man between the prescribed ages from military service, regardless of the hold which that idea had se- cured in certain sections. The ruling has not changed the law from the way in which it was first set forth, but it does remove the uncertainty and -es- tablish the fact that' it must be shown by the married men that there are those who are actually dependent up- on_them before they will be exempted. This furnishes a basis fog action for all the boards. It provides something to guide those whg must make the de- cision and makes certain that married men must produce the facts proving that the members of their family are actually dependent. Tt eliminates a misunderstanding which ought not to have been permitted in the first place. OUR PLEDGE TO RUSSIA, Russla is deeply concerned at the present time in the outcome of the ereat conference which is taking place in Moscow where the represen- tatives of all the leading elements are comsidering the future of that country. Premier Kerensky delivered an inspiing address at the opening and there must hate been a thrill of encouragement in that great gathering when the cabled message of Presi- dent Wilson was read, especially when the confidence of the people of the | United States was expressed “in the imate triumph of ideals of democ- racy and self government against all enemies within and without” and when he gave “their renewed assur- nce of every material and moral as- sistance they can extend to the in that land and that it is determin-d to do all it can to brinz it about.

TSR Mies Belinda’s brother looked at her disapprovingly. “Whose slave ~have you been this week?” he inquired testi- ly. *Why is it that every time I g0 to the city for a few days 1 find you worn to a frazzle when I come back? I always know you have been doing something less congenial than garden- ing. In plain English, my dear, who's been working you?” “What a silly question, Ben! body’s been working me. “So?

I had a letter from Mrs. Wadsworth the day you went to town saying that they wished to lease a comfortably furnished summer cottage for housekeeping. ““She knows there arem't any such here for rent. Why didn’t she choose some other lake?” “Because she wished to be near us and our garden. Really, I believe she is quite rond of us, Bén” “Heally, 1 believe she is quite fond of the brand of free vegetables you srow, Belinda.” No- “How Forrid of you! Well, anyway, she wanrs to come here and she begged me to find a place near us. The only available house is the Hanfords'. You know, they’re not coming out to stay any this season, because both the Han- ford boys have enlisted and Joyce is working like a Trojan at the Red Cross rooms. By great good luck Mr. Han- ford was out here inspecting some re- pairs on_ the place and I asked hitn whether he would rent it to the Wads- worths. “He declared they didn’t like to rent it, but I told him the Wadsworths were nice people, and 1 laughingly suggest- ed that the rent money would make a neay dittle. contefiution o the Red Crode. The reply appearea to interest him a little, for he said that the scheme might please Joyce. It. would be pleasant for her to feel that even their country home was doing its bit. So I urged him some more and he finally said, rather reluctantly, that if I would take charge of the cleaning and act as agent the Wadsworths could have'it for the rest of the summer.” “And of course you jumped at the chance 1 add to your responsibilities,” said Miss Belinda's brother. *“I know you, all right.” “It wouldn't have been anything at all'if T could have found a woman to mont of Ruesia in the promotion|do the cleaning.
