THAT'S A GOOD INVESTMENT The Churchyard as a Playground N THE athletic field Chicago ball games are played regularly on Sundays, to the ap rent satisfaction of hundreds of attendants. And lately the ciety of Friends, in Flushing, L. I, turned over the spa cious grounds surrounding its place of worship for use on Sundays as a playground : Thus gradually is the old ideal of which made the day solemn and severe, way to the new notion that play may be innocent, wholesome. Some good folk are grieved by their feelings are prompted by conscience they should receive our sympathetic respect But custom inevitably follows circumstance; tension of the modern struggle for existence, with its scant leisure for weektime mid-week recreation, introduces factors into the present Sunday problem which were not there in the early times. : . Joy is not necessarily sinful nor self-repression religious. The peril lies, not in allowing tired folks to find rest in Sunday amusement, but in allowing amusement to overshadow the obligation which all of us should feel toward the Creator for the bless- ings we enjoy. The children of Flushing probably toward the good Quakers for the privi churchyard, and be more inclined to respect worship, than if denied the chance for natural p to seek it on the sly. At all events, the incident seems worth symptom of changing custom. of a Catholic college in Sunday observance, apparently giving deserve and and the high will feel more kindly lege of playing in the the hours of lay and forced y of notice as a hange from a nicely run New jer has ever it is a most gruesome place.

This new plan does not mean t citizen, having cast his vote, may therefore go to sleep. movement is still his affair, to be watched and prodded as necessity suggests. No scheme will remain clean which doesn’t have him on the watch tower. ve But it simplifies his fixing of responsibility and allows him greater freedom to judge policies by results.

What Public Health Means E tubercle bacillus, the typhoid germ and the other little pests which lie in wait to bedevil the human race, pay no attention to what religion we profess, what party label we wear, what rent we pay or whether we spin in a buzz car or walk. We all look alike to them. : In the fight for life which we are making against these prevalent foes, oughtn’t there to be unity? How foolish to miss easy chances of combining our battle strength. Spurred to it by the international congress on school hygiene the common council of Buffalo has proposed that the school houses be made the rallying points o' adult society in this war for health. It wants them opened for the free 7" discussion of public health questions—which is equivalent to} saying the free discussion of ALL public questions. For you can’t have free discussion democratically without contributing to health—health of mind, health of soul, if not immediately health of body. We are coming to see that every matter of our common welfare may be translated into terms of physical or psycholog- feal/health ; that overwork is a health problem; that the higgest asset there is is human life, rich and useful and happy human} life; and that, therefore, nothing which interferts with the development of such life is foreign to the subject of health. So, while opening the schools to grown folks at nights for the study of what we now call hygiene is good, it really means fiuch more. It means the establishment of a new means of human salvation, the preservation of democracy. st.

If your wife does her duty you Deal out to your wife a lb- eral monthly allowance. Let the Money Alone Never ask her to Account for the money you gave her.

FOR This store has had a most remarkable growth. It was only last: year that we were compelled to close out the women's department, cecupying all the second floor, to accommodate the growing needs of the men's clothing department @ the establishment of the $15.00 and $18.00 clothing section. The next step was the removal of the great Beuiamin line to the second floor, giving the largest and handsomest clothing display room in the West. " Now we must have room to display our overcoats, and we are preparing to make the most startling expansion of our history—an_ entire floor devoted €X- clusively to overcoats and raincoats—splendidly appointed, with perfect light- ing facilities, and accompanied by the famous Cheasty service one of the stromg> est features of this store.
