I exchange THE BIG THREE “English labor is determined to fight this war thru to a finish!” This from Jim Lord, an American working- man just returned from England. It is the one bright fact that stands out in comparison with the black facts and forebodings that clog the cables from Italy and Russia. England is “solid.” And so is France, And so is A rica. It has got to be realized right here and now that By upon these three depends the ultimate winning of the war. Recent developments make it more apparent than ever that Russia and Italy are not to be counted on for too much. The Russians have retired. Their country is torn With dissension; the “rest” that Kerensky insists on is im- tive—for them. But for us there can be no rest. The Italians are still fighting bravely. But they are fighting on the defensive. To turn that defensive once more into an offensive is going to require all the backing we can give them—shells and ships, food and fuel. bly English and French and American soldiers on the front before the thing is finished. In this country so far we have buckled down to our _ new big job in fine style. We have raised unheard-of sums of money. We have made over an old army and created @ new one. Already we are represented on the fighting : It is to be expected that America’s entrance into the Je will bring about a closer co-ordination of the allied power on all fronts. With the “Big Three” and Considering all of which, this is certainly no dark day for us, despite European news dispatches from the “edges of battle”—the Russian edge and the Italian edge. JEWISH RELIGION AND LIQUOR After hearing the evidence in the case of the city ist H. Genss, Judge Everett Smith, supported by au- tative information concerning the hoot of the ud, declared that liquor was not essential in Jewish Yeligious ceremonies, tho its use is not forbidden. Consequently, no Jewish rabbi ought to have a stock of liquor as permitted under the dry law for “sacramental And no Jewish rabbi in this city did keep such a stock. One H. Genss, who claimed to be a rabbi, but who was ‘without a congregation to minister to, did keep such a stock. And he was deservedly found guilty. He was guilty, not alone against the land, but against his co-religionists by giving a wrong and disparaging im- pression of what a rabbi’s conduct should be. | HOW ABOUT CHRISTMAS GIFT? It will probably be cold and wet in the trenches on s day. Some of the men will be thinking of us stay-at-homes, and the warmth and the happiness of holi- day time. Red Cross workers will distribute hundreds of _ thousands of packages to the friendless ones, who'll open them and find a new pipe, tobacco, candy, cookies, writing materials and a package of gum. But there may be Sammies over there who'll get no And it will be YOUR fault. Seattle is expected to fur- nish 5,000 Christmas packages for friendless soldiers. Free- will Christmas contributions pay for them. Only enough money has been given Red Cross workers here to supply 1,200 packages. If $4,000 more is given to the local Red Cross during ithe next few days, Seattle will be able to do her share. ‘So kick thru, folks, and make it a merry Christmas in the trenches. _THE RED CROSS OF AKRA If there are any Red Cross medals awarded we hope one will go to the women of Akra, N.
