6 War Department Says Officers Must Exercise The war has demonstrated that physical fitness is one of the essen tial qualities of an efficient officer. It is now equal in weight with ' in telligence" and "Leadership" (on rating cards). It is peculiarly u self-imposed duty of every officer so to regulate his manner of living and to prescribe for himself such course of physical exercise as to be at all times physically fit to perform any duty to which he may bo assigned, or to meet any reasonable test for demonstrating such fitness. In view of this, the War Depart ment has prescribed that all duties Bhall be so arranged that all offi cers shall have one-half day a week, in addition to Sundays and Holidays to be devoted to physical exeixisc. All such officers are required to avail themselves of this one-half day each week, exclusive of Sun- 1,000 MEN WANTED AT ONCE to Apply to M.

COULDN'T POOL TUTS KID Johnny paid his first visit to a farm the other day. All his life he had lived in the heart of a great city, and when he suddenly came in sight of a haystack he stopped and gazed earnestly at what appeared to him as a new brand of architec ture. "Say, Mr. Smith," he remarked to the farmer, pointing to the hay stack, "why don't they have doors and windows in it?" "Door and windows!" smiled the farmer. "That ain't a houae, Johnny; that's hay." "Don't try to josh me, Mr. Smith!" was the scornful rejoinder. "Don't you suppose I know that hay don't grow in humps like that?"—• Minneapolis Tribune. EMBARGO ON WHEAT Kansas City, Mo., Sept. 5.—A tem porary embargo on wheat shipments to Kansas City was declared yester day to relieve congestion on the tracks. Elevators here, it is said, contain about 12,500,000 bushels of v heat, more than half of the prop erty of the United States Grain Cor poration, and several thousand car loads are on the tracks. The em bargo, according to grain men, will last several days. Better Than Bolshevism ♦Tlic Internationa Sunday School Lesson Por September 7 Is "The Kingdom of God." —Matt. 13:31-33, 11-50. By WILLIAM T. ELLIS A sense of humor, a sense of fair ness and a sense of patriotism would save all the world from the blight of Bolshevism. For Bolshevism is unworkable, over any large area and over uny long period of time, because it is merely autocracy turned bottomsido up. it carries the seeds of its own destruction as truly as does the aristocratic order which it seeks to supplant; because its motive power is not love, but selfishness. Despite all our stupidities and blunders, the mass of us are folks with enough common sense to know that we can not run the machinery of life with hate for a motor. Everybody with a real head on his shoulders is asking himself why | and what Bolshevism is, and, since it appears bad, how the world may escapo it. The old order of life seems to have been rejected by a large proportion of mankind as not a success, from the standpoint to day. something different is de sired. Myriads are seeking a new deal for mankind. Their cry is that of Tennyson: I "Ah, when shall all men's good Be each man's rule, and universal peace Lie like a shaft of light across the land, i And like a lane of beams athwart the sea, Thro' all the circles of the golden year?" Reviewing tlie Nations In n peculiar sense, I am in the midst of this world ferment. I have been traveling through the very center of it. having come through restless. Europe to the turbulent regions of the Near East, which the western world knows best as Bible lands. It is my work to investigate changing conditions. If I dared be one-sided I could confine myself to the glorious emancipations effected by the war the new passion for liberty and nationalism amid the ancient submerged and oppressed people, which, if given free expres sion is the surest of guarantees against Bolshevism the new break ing down of old isolations and an tcjgOrr.lfsmfV so that tolerance and community spirit have come into vital existence: the emancipation of woman, so swift and dramatic as to be incomprehensible; the emergence of a spirit of social responsibility in the orient, as expressed by the na tive orphanages; and the awaken ing to the need of.education for all people. It is a shining page that is to be written of what beneficient wonders have been wrought by the upheavals of recent years. On the other hand, if I dared be a pessimist T could write a heart sickening tale of the persistence of the old arrogance of imperialism and self-aggrandizement on the part of nations whom the war should have taught better; of the unchas tened spirits of peoples who have NUXATED IRON MASTER STRENGTH AND BLOOD BUILDER ■•n.yt.mi-m-vintLvuf T&AJRRISBTTRG TELEGRAPH suffered most in the past five years; of the rutlilessness of business al lied to politics; of the oppression of weak peoples; of heartless and dead ly profiteering; of amazing disre gard by Christian nations of sacred pledges; of the persistence, in short, of the state of mind that made pos sible the world calamity. llirtli Pangs or Death Tliroos Jeremiahs are plentiful in the Near East nowadays: and frequent ly I have listened to men; mostly British officers, expounding a rath er popular theory that civilization is about to revert to barbarism; and that, as one man expressed it, "In ten years the world will be back where it was three hundred years ago." This raised the basic question. Are the pains which society is now suffering birth-pangs or death throes? Is what is good in process of dying, or is something still bet ter now being born? Is the twilight hour in which we dwell the fore runner of sunset and the portal of the world's darkest night? Faith and facts unite to convince the careful, unpanicky observer that "The best is yet to be, The last of life, for which the first was made." Something: new and wonderful is coining to pass which may be called by many beautiful names, but the truest of them is the kingdom of God. An all-wise, over-ruling and beneficent Being is working out his glorious purposes for man. The earth is undergoing a sort of divine housecleaning; and because we had accumulated so much rubbish (some of which we Ignorantly esteemed to be priceless heirlooms), there is a deal of dust to be raised, and vast quantities of hoary possessions are being sent to the trash heap. But when housecleaning is over, this will be a wonderful world In which to live. Getting the Big Idea One who tries to keep his vision clear to study the times in which he moves is troubled by the prevalence of petty programs, and by the fail ure of so many persons to discern the real bigness of the issue in volved. Every social panacea that has ever been evolved, no matter how absurd or lawless, is now being brought solemnly forward as a cure all for the present world disorder. Whereas, the real truth lies on the surface, as well as at the heart of the most complex phenomena —- namely, that only the kingdom of heaven idea and spirit can possibly he adequate for our new necessities. The ailments of the world which may seem new, need the old'remedv of an applied Gospel. The princi ples which Jesus laid down as the basis of a new order of life are the only ones that can possibly avail us in these days. If the kingdom is not set up, then none of our new nations and forms of government can last. A word of warning is in order here. Some Americans are still so habit-ridden and so unaware of the vast significance of recent events, that they,, think that the way to pro mote the kingdom in this crisis is to increase the machinery for multi plying in the world the number of Methodists or Baptists or Presby terians or Episcopalians or Catho lics, or whatever their own relig ious communion may be. That is the inference to be gathered from stray publications that have found their way across the seas. I read of some uninformed persons who sincerely believe that the Russian problem, for example, is to be solved by introducing a certain American religious denomination into that wandering nation! Let us speak boldly. The com ing of the kingdom of God may mean the submergence of all the churches which have served it in the past. Protestantism, Roman Catholicism, Greek Orthodoxy. Gre gorianism, and all the other forms and expressions of Christianity, are inadequate to represent and express the fullness of the kingdom of God. In that kingdom we may find much for which there was no provision in the creed of any of the churches. Already God has aroused the whole world out of its insularity into a new spaciousness and tolerance of thought. Mankind is getting the big idea that "Our God is marching on." Characteristics of the Kingdom When a person nowadays grows out of his former small ideas—and what a growing time for mankind the past five years have been!— and begins to get the grejit concep tion of a bigger, better and more beneflcient order of human life, he finds that the kingdom character istics outlined by Jesus still apply. The first mark of the kingdom of heaven is the rule of the King. That is not an easy truth for our rather lawless times to grasp. There cannot be the kingdom without tnc King. God must be accepted on his throne first of all. The new life has to be ordered in obedience and reverence to Him. All that God ex pressed of his mind and character by Jesus must be received as a pre requisite of the kingdom which has been so long in coming to its pres ent hour. Foolish folk who want a new life without God will have to undergo a course in the kinder garten of experience to teach them that before all else and above all else, our day needs to bow down in humhle reverence before the liv ing God, In whose hand is human hope. On a ship, crossing the subma rine zone during the war, I talked with an "emancipated" woman whose creed was merely lawless ness. She represented radically those muddy-minded mortals who think that all wrongs will be righted when all laws are abolished and everybody does as he pleases. If my mind still functions normally, despite its countless queer con tacts, then one thing is clear, name ly, that our world is suffering sore ly, in general and in detail, from an epidemic of lawlessness. The kingdom of heaven comes with laws which must be kept. A reign of righteousness is essential to a program of peace. Dreamers who conceive of a League of Nations which winks at the injustices of its members are building upon sand. All tho justice and truth that are inherent in the character of God must hold sway when his kingdom comes. Not less law, but more and better, is the order of the day that seems dawning. A third characteristic of this heavenly kingdom which is hu manity's hope this beautiful or der of life which Jesus set forth in so many significant pnrables—is that it is a. commonwealth. Because it is for God's glory it is for man's welfare. All citizens of the king dom are patriots of good will. What ever hurts the weak enlists the hatred of thees helpers of human- | ity. Anything that serves the com mon good commands their support. They are "all for one and for all." There is no socialism like that of the kingdom of heaven; for it alone provides the new spirit of love, without which all other social schemes collapse. In this common wealth which is the goal of the ages the citizens must possess the mind of Christ, which is love transcend ant. The supreme hope of a trou j bled earth is the coming of this Udngdom which fulfills the angel Bfrophecy of the reign of peace and will. CALX, THE DOUGHBOYS? France is wondering by what name she will remember the Amer ican soldiers, and French news | papers are debating the claims of "Doughboys" as against "Yanks." A ; discussion of the relation merits of I various names, found the overseas I veterans, who are now on the Re cruiting Parties in this District, t much divided. All agrce that the i derivation of the term Doughboy", as given by a French servant, ac cording to The Christian Science Monitor, is quite interesting. The name, he exp'ains, traces back to the time of the Mexican War in 1848. When the American Army penetrated into the territory which is now New Mexico, Arizona, and Southern California, it found along the line of march those little houses built of sundried rorl brick, which can be seen there to thi sday. Theso bricks the natives called adobes, In time shortened into "dobes." The Infantrymen pro ceeded to install themselves in these little huts. T{ie American Cavalry men, less lucky, had to stay hy their mounts and were compelled to sleep under the open sky. So they gave to their fortunate brothers-in-arriis, partly as a joke, and partly from envy, the nickname "dobie-dodgers", which became abbreviated into "dobies" and Anally into "dough boys."
