The suggestion is made that something ought to be done to check the hundreds of thousands of foreign birth from returning to the European countries to -which they are go- ing. to the extent at least of encour- aging the desiralles to remain. It is a sensible thought and there is no doubt that there are those who have put in 2 good word here and there to this very end, but possibly there has not been enough done in advanee to have the desired effect at this time. And in this connection nothing stands out any more prominently that the need of Americanization, for it is to be realized that the influence of such work would be bound to have its good effects in this direction. Attention is directed to the fact {@at the exodus is including some of fhe naturalized citizens and a great many of the industrious, law abiding men of foreign birth who have been getting the benefit of American priv- of the entire law and giving demobilization and the into effect of the federal me there are those who beer containing 2.75 per alcohol.

Coal prices are high and there is no prospect that they will drop. If anything they will go up, but with a shortage in pro- duction threatened efforts in that di- rection need to be speeded up to the highest pitch and if that is dependent upon the orders placed it is the sen- sible thing for every ome to do his part by contracting for his coal now, not the week before he is going to re- quire it. A NEW CHAMPION. The Fourth of July is a popular oc- casion for the holdiAg of champion- ship prize fights. Many battles have Leen fought on the holilay. but it re. st have been a keen disaproint- mext L big crowa ga:«s ed at Te- 136 on Triday to see the champion- ship change hands not only so easily but so quickly. Great reliance had been placed in Willard to_successtully defend the ti- tle. But ‘even more confidence had been shown by the backers of the challenger, because it was figured that he was in better condition and he possessed the advantage of youth which was caleulated to overcome the long reach and the pawerful blows of the giant fist artist. and the outcome shows that those who had seen both men in training and gave voice to the belief that “Dempsey will peal his hide off in three or four rounds” were correct. With his eharacteristic attack Dempsey opened heavy from the start| and kept up a rapid fire delivepy so crushing in effect that he had viftual- iy won the fight in the first round. Willard then and thereafter never showed an instance when he was a dangerous antagonist. Dempsey had everything his own way and he pro- ceeeded to make the most of it, so that even though a longer battle had been anticipated it was a foregone conclusion following the first few minutes that Willard could not stay long. Willard has thus taken his place among other great fighters. He has passed his zenith. Where others are developing it is shown that he is re- ceding and it seems unlikely that he will again regain or attempi to re- gain the lost honors. Dempsey quick- Iy demonstrated that he is the better fighter, though it was hardly a good boxing contest. EDITORIAL NOTES. The day of sore fingers, singed eye- brows and a headache, if in fact it isn't something worse. The man on the corner says: The fellow who complains the most gener- ally accomplishes the least. With a safe, sane and sober Fourth, the terrors of the day after seem to be pretty thoroughly eliminated. It is to be expected most any day now that there will be a sharp ad- vance in the price of buttermilk. With the list of drinks greatly shortened the weatherman seems to be rubbing it in early with this torrid spell. It seems quite evident that the re- turn to two cent postage means an increase of that kind of mail matter| that fills up the waste paper basket. The British dirigible is on the way to this country but there is ne reason to anticipate that it will cut up -any such antics as covering part of the distance upside down. The idea that a doctor cannot pre- scribe liquor for a patient that needs it should be dispelled. But it should be remembered that such prescrip- tions cannot be refilled. That two million dollars are to be provided by the government for run- ning down the bomb throwers and an- archists means that ‘the price will be cheap if a good job ean be done. Hats have to be lifted to the Greeneville section of the city when it comes to providing a Fourth of July parade. It shows what can be done when there is a will and the preper amount of cooperation. Now it is claimed that Germany has ship tonnage to the extent of a half million hidden under foreign regis- tration, and it will be not at all sur- prising if it is found that it has cov- ered up many other things in order to bring the price ef peace to the very lowest figure. footsteps of its parents.

Then the mother robin invited the little bird to play ‘tag, and ran, increasing its strides with the help of its wings until it darted into the air and was off to a neighboring tree to watch and guard it. Then the little bird came back and went through a series of wing exercises around a circle that looked very much like a juvenile ‘dance; and it hunfed, fed and had a good time all by itself. What a lot of measures we have for men, and what a lot of injustice is done by them. The Saviour, the Man of Nazareth, with his three examples has never been excelled—Iloyalty to God, lovalty to truth and loyaity to self, all included in the one measure: Honesty! It is not smart to be dis- honest in any respect, and the man who is not loyal to his own honest convictions cannot be honest with his fellowmen or his Maker. The great- est man is not the one who seems to make goed under human rules. The divine rules of conduct transcend any- thing man has been able to devise, and there really is no substitute. How we all strive to keep up appear- ances; and you mey ask: “If we did not, what would become of us? I guess we should be less victims of delusion, don’t you? And get a better view of veal life. Half the world with great difficulty support the pretense which it is pleased to fabricate, and the world sees them as they appear. Appearances have been classed as de- ceitful ever since Cain inquired: “Am I my brother's keeper?” Nature some- times produces ‘a fool who _appears ‘wise, but she endows him with speech If we strive to become what we like to be taken for. appearance is really worth cultivating. Do you know that the toad who thoughi he was the only toad in the puddie had all the other toads laugh- ing at him. It is grotesque even for a toad to be so unconscious of his sur- roundings as to think he is alone, espe- cially when he is in superior company. 1 do not know who discovered that a toad could make such a bad example of himself, or play a foolish part mor- tals have been known to assume. No one is safe who can find no-one to look companionship, or no one who deserves a smile rather than a frown.

Gardeners talk to plants, but you never have heard of plants talking to gardeners, have you? But you must admit plants, like everything else God has made, have forms of expression. A plant in the garden which is not do- ing well expresses its lack of thrift which is its way of disclosing its needs. The attentive gardener can tell you when plants need special atten- tion from their size or their color, or their slowness of growth, or various other things. They make no sounds, but their life conditions are recog- nized by observation, and he waters them and feeds them and prunes them or disbuds them because they either need stimulating or to be par- tially relieved of their burdens, Then do they ot talk in their way? Don't you think as a great republic America’ should follow less and lead more? Instead of sending Americans to England and Germany or France or ! Austria to be perfected in classic fart r meehanics, why should nof scholars from abroad come to Amer- ica to be finished in the educational essentials?

This closed the carriage road to Tabriz and later closed the railway. At great risk several members of the Committee for Armenian and Syrian Relief Com- mittee with headquarters at Erivan went to Tabriz and ° brought back several million roubles in a train that was so crowded with retreating Rus- sian soldats that one of the commit- tee members, upholstered with hun- dreds of thousands of roubles, was forced to sleep on the roof of the car in a temperature near zero.
