QUESTIONS FOR AMERICANS.
Here are a few of a long llKt of per
tinent questions propounded by Sena
tor Eenyon of Iowa during the debate
In the United States senate on the pro
hibition amendment:
"Why do we prohibit the boys In the
army and navy from having booze and
permit those who remain at home to
have it?
"If liquor Is a bad thin? for the boys
in the trenches, why Is It a good thing
for those at home?
"When they are willing to die for na,
should we not be willing to go dry for
them? -
"When the food controller asks ev
eryone In the country to conserve the
food supply, why must the food supply
going Into beer be excepted?
"If more foodstuff goes into beer
than Into whisky, why do we prevent
foodstuff going Into whisky and permit
It going into beer?
"Sixty per cent of the nntlon, terri
torially, Is dry. Are not the feelings of
the people living In that territory en
titled to any consideration?
"If the beer drinkers are going to
rebel unless they jset their beer, will
the temperance people rebel unless they
get prohibition?
"Why do not the temperance people
clolm that they will rebel also? Tho
temperance people will be for tho nu
tlon no matter If beer and whisky be
forced on them. Their patriotism does
not depend on having their own way.
"If some one were to tnke as much
foodstuff as goes into booze find dump
It Into the sea, what would the people
of the nation say?
"If someone should advance the ar
gument that this wns necessary In or
der to appease certain people who be
lieved In dumping foodstuff's Into tho
sea, and thnt If they did not do It it
would arouse riots, would we accede
to their request?"
PLENTY OF JOBS.
Feorla, 111., was for half a century
the whlsky-monufncturlng center of
the United States. Its five great distil
leries, the largest In the world, fur
nished 35 per cent of the whisky of the
country. They used up 54,500 bushels
of corn dally and employed 1,275 men.
When these plunts, on September 8,
tinder the federal food control law,
Ceased operations so far as the mak
ing of beverage liquor is concerned
did these 1,275 men face a jobless fu
ture? Not at all. Other manufactur
ers eagerly snnpped them up. A lead
ing business man of Peoria said to a
Chicago reporter: "There is a place
for every' one of them In the tractor
factories and other Industries. We can
use every ounce of coal the distilleries
have been requiring and are glad to
get It. Peoria will never know that
the distilleries have been closed."
FIRST AID TO THE ENEMY.
The Baltimore Sun, an nntl-prohlbl-
tlon Journal, recently called attention
to serious conditions in shtp-bullding,
due to drink. Work In many of the
Big shipyards Is retarded, it says, be
cause employees are "hanging about
saloons and soaking rum Into their sys
tems, and, as a result, either staying
away from work for days at a time or
turning up unfit to handle their part
Ip the vast team-work of modern in
dustry. They weaken the efficiency of
the whole industrial machine."
Thus In America, as In England, the
drink traffic is furnishing first aid to
Germany. At the behests of the liquor
Interests our government is playing
into the hnnd8 of the enemy.
CONSISTENT INCONSISTENCY.
Senator La Follette of Wisconsin, an
opponent of prohibition, voted for the
submission to the states of the prohi
bition amendment to the federal con
stitution. La Follette's Magazine ex
plains the senator's apparent incon
sistency thus:
"Senator La Follette said that while
he was opposed to prohibition he rec
ognlised the right of the people to set
tle all questions' by the referendum,
and for that renson he voted for tho
resolution."
The uctlon proclaims the Wisconsin
senator loyal to the principles of true
American democracy and we, the peo
ple, commend It to every senator and
representative in congress.
NOW ALL'S CHANGED.
There was a time when It wns a
natural part of a soldier's exlstenco to
drink and carouse. That day is past
with the soldier sworn to defend his
country's flag and representing the
power and dignity of the nation. Strong
muscles, clear brains, high ideals in the
soldier, increase the fighting efficiency
of the army, and these qtiolltles ln the
citizen insure the permanency of our
Institutions. MaJ. Gen. John L. Persh
ing. "
GOOD LOGIC.
Dr. W. A. Evans ln the Chicago Trib
une tells of his Interviews with sol
diers and sailors on tho Bubject of pro
hibition for army nnd navy. He finds
that they "will stund for It" but object
to being singled out. If they are to bo
under prohibition they want the other
fellow to be under It. They say, "If
prohibition promotes efficiency anJ
hetilth In an army, 'as you fellows
say It does,' it also promotes them ln
the men who clerk, sell goods, work
ln factories, raise crops, argue in court,
and practice medicine."
HOW BEST TO HELP SOLDIERS.
The blsho; rf London not long since
visited the heudqttarters of the Aus
trallnn troops to ask the general ln
command how he might arr V t in main
taining the moral tone of tiro soldier
While in the city. Tho general replied i
"You can help us most, bishop, by clos

Isulah 26:3.
In the tiny In which we find our
selves, there Is need for a clear eye nnd
a fit cud y hand. All
of us tire caught
In the swift on
rush of things, es
pecially ln connec
tion with the
world war. We
cannot avoid this,
and we would not
if we could. But
as the hand of the
pilot on the great
steamer, as it
shoots the rapids
of the St. Law
rence river, must
bo steudy, and
himself In all his
being confident
and reliunt, so must we be ln these
times. Ordinarily there should be no
occasion for bringing this matter be
fore the Christians, but they sometimes
forget the great fuct of the peace of
God. It Is that which he should pos
sess, ond which should control his life.
In our day the word peace makes
great appeal;' and there aro Christians
who are taken off their feet by It, and
they hnvo become pnclllsts In the pop
ular sense, when they would not bo
considered so for n moment It they
would think soberly. We sing very
lustily, "Lord, give, us peace in this
our day," and with only cessation of
hostilities la view, the return of sol
dlers to their homes, and the resump
tion of business activities and the
many rounds of ease and pleasure to
which wo have beeu accustomed for
many yeors. Hut great principles are
at stuke, and to secure the peace now
at tho sacrifice of these principles,
would be both unwise and unrighteous,
as it would have been to have sought
peace after tho first or second buttle
of Rull Rti, In our Civil war, for the
great prlncnh's were not settled at
that time.

Ity and universal uij'ty among men,
A Different..
It is easy to include too much In the
term "peace of God," for sometimes
wo mean "peace with God" which Is
clenrly a very different thing. This
pence of God has to do, not with a re
lationship, but with an experience. It
does not refer to any cessation of hos
tilities, even spiritual, but it is a state
of soul or mind, something very real.
It does not proclaim Itself from the
housetop or cry aloud In the streets,
but It Is as real as the dawn, which
makes no ndo, and Is as modest as tho
dew-drop. It Is a still small voice with
in the soul ; Indeed, It Is the voice of
God himself, who speaks to the soul
that Is bearing his Image and likeness.
This peace is the very peace that
God himself possesses. We cannot con
ceive of God being agitated, flustered,
excited. To speak reverently, he could
not afford to be, as his business is too
vast on tho ono hand, and too minute
on the other, to allow this. It Is the
peace also of Jesus Christ himself; his
voice was not heard In the streets ; the
Insults, threats and persecutions of his
enemies did not throw him Into anger
or resentment; ns a lumb, he goes to
the slaughter, and as a sheep before
his shearers, he is dumb. In the storm
of the sea, ho says, "Peaco, be still,"
and the winds obey him. On the cross,
while suffering Intense physical agony,
he calmly prays for his enemies and
speaks words of comfort to bis mother.
It Is tho peace which millions of Chris
tians have exemplified ln the past.
The Haven of Peace.
The Christian bus known that who
soever hearkeneth to the voice of
God doth dwell In safety and shall
bo free from feor of evil. He goes to
the operating table without a fear; he
sees tho Hons ready to tear him to
pieces, and sings songs of prnlso to
God ; he goes "over tho top" with his
comrades falling about hltn, and his
soul is quiet. He has tho record of
the Holy Spjrlt's injunction. As the
Christian lias had this peace; every
Christian today should have It. The
responsibility io on every ono who
knows It. Why ennnot the Christian
bcllevo the word of God, "My grace is
sufllcient for thee?" The promise of
this pence Is one of the strongest mo
tives that can bo offered to man. As
ear hath torment, is It not of the great
est Importance that fear should be
taken away? To man the two strong
est motives might be, first, the promise
of the supremacy of the spirit over
tho flesh in life. Wlintever the earth
ondltlons, ill-health, poverty, bereave
ment, persecution, the spirit should
dominate, and the things of the flesh
should become of little moment. Sec
ondly, tho promise of a perfect body
at the coming of the Lord; glorious,
Immortal, powerful, honorable and
deathless. Why Is it that the clearest
promises of God are not believed?
With the peace of God in the heart,
tho Christian can truly say :
rtiou very present aid
In suffering or distress:
The mind which still on thee la stayed
is nepi iu period peace.
The peace of God must rest on the
peace with God, and this latter peace
Is oniy secured through faith ln Jesus
Christ ns the Holy Scriptures teach,
"Being Justified by faith, we have
peace with God through our Lord Jesus
Christ." While our plea Is chiefly to
those who have this peace with God,'
we would urge our friends who do not
have this peace with God, to seek it in
order that they may have the claim to
the peace of God.

Hello Profanity.
The rule Is strict against using pro
funo language, when talking over the
telephone. A telephone experiment
has proved a failure iu Lynn, Mass.
The manager noticed that "wrong
number" calls were frequent, and he or
dered the "hello" girls to cull each digit
separately and to Insert the word
"dash" after each one. The method
was slow, but tho climax was reached
when a Lynn man wns ln n hurry to
get a Uoston newspaper office. He
culled for "Reach WHK)" and heard a
sweet voice at "central" any: "Beach
three, dash, oh, dash, oh, dash, oh,
dash."
That netted the Lynn man nnd he
called out:
"Well, what are you cussing about?"
The order wus abollslrcd. and no

ranging through all the kingdoms of
matter from lanthanum to shark's
