THE CITIZEN, FRIDAY, APRIL 4, 1913.
WHAT THE W. O. T. U. IS DOING.
A retrospective glance over the
last twelve months indicates that the
National Woman's Christian Tem
perance Union occupies an advanced
and over advancing position; that
more than ever is our organization
loved and appreciated by those who
are Interested in the uplift of the
peoplo and more than ever is it hat
ed and derided by the liquor makers,
liquor sellers and all liquor dovotces.
This could not bo otherwise for the
W. C. T. U. is truo to its declaration
of principles, ono section of which
should evermore ho engraved upon
the hearts -of all who wear the white
ribbon. " We bellovo In the gospel
of the Ooldon Itule and that each
one's habits of life should be an ex
ample safe and beneflclent for every
other ono to follow." The church
of Christ is taking higher ground
than over before. The clergyman of
today who drinks is an exception.
Insurance companies in Great
Britain, America, Sweden, 'Norway
and Germany, are discriminating
against those who drink oven In
moderation. The liquor traffic that
threatens the destruction of all that
is best in our nation's life is fast be
coming a national as well as a state
question and we will have to work
together for its destruction.
A summary of the report of the
Committee on Temperance of the
Federal Council of the Churches of
Christ in America which recently
met in Chicago is as follows:
" The saloon keeper is to-day a
parish. The grog-selling tavern
keeper Is no longer an influential
man in the community; the still
house is not run by elders and dea
cons. Public sentiment has changed.
All business now demands sobriety
In employes. By their official action
the railroads give us a million and a
half of sober men.
More than twenty millions school
children are, by the requirements of
law, taught the perils of alcohol.
Despite all efforts of the brewers,
the Unites States government posi
tively refuses to become saloonkeep
ers to its soldiers. Nine large states
have entirely prohibited the liquor
traffic, by vote of the people.
But perhaps the best proof that
the temporance cause is progressing
is the fact that the statesmen of the
great nations of the world now re
gard the liquor problem -as a great
world problem. To solve that prob
lem they have organized tho Inter
national Alcohol Congress. This
congress meets biennially or once in
two years. It is attended by eminent
medical specialists as well as by
statesmen. Our nation is officially
represented at this congress."
The liquor traffic must be destroy
ed. The wiBdom, the intelligence,
the civilization, the religion of the
age declares that the saloon must
go and It is going. It is the advanc
ing tide of civilization. Let us as
a Union labor to that end and may
God help us to help make our slo
gan, "A saloonless nation in 1920,"
a reality.

YOUR RESPONSIBILITY.
Spitting and poor ventilation in
the steam and electric cars are re
sponsible for many of the colds and
attacks of influenza that are pre
valent just now. But do not blame
the railroad companies. Blame
yourself.
As long as peoplo Insist upon sit
ting in superheated cars, as long as
they grow frantic at the sight of an
open window, and as long as they
are indifferent to spitting In the
trains, tho railroad cars will continue
to carry disease germs. It is the
attitude of the public that is to
blame for the conductor who pays no
attention to the man spitting upon
the floor but who hastens to ask the
passenger beside an open window to
close it.
In tho cars of a trolley line that
donnects two Pennsylvania towns,
spitting has practically been abolish
ed. The traveling public demands
It. This month ono of the biggest
railroads in the stato ordered its
conductors to see that spitting in
their cars was stopped. This was
done because a group of citizens in-i
terested one of the omclals in this
subject.
Insist upon proper ventilation and
the stopping of spitting in the trains.
Your protest with the protests of
others will be bound to have Its ef
fect. Tho obtaining of hygienic con
ditions in traveling is largely your
responsibility. See that you live up
to it. Karl de Schwelnltz, Executive
Secretary, Pennsylvania Society for
the Prevention of Tuberculosis.

CLEAN-UP TIME HERE.
Spring is here, not only according
to tho calendar, but in reality. There
was a bit of frost laBt night, result
ing from the widespread rains of
the past few days, but today tho sun
is shining brightly and tho atmos
phere is warming up cheerfully.
April, with its warm rains and sun
shine is hero and everything in na
turo will begin to put on a new dress.
It behooves man to get busy too.
The time for activity Is here. Let
us all shake off tho lethargy of tho
winter season and bestir ourselves.
The 'first thing peoplo generally
ought to think about in connection
with tho family and community life
Is to do tho spring cleaning up. We
could wish for an ofilclal campaign,
but in the absenco of this very ef
ficient and wholesome plan adopted
by many enterprising communities,
there is nothing whatever to prevent
every man, woman and child in the
community from doing his part indi
vidually for the rehabilitation of the
sanitary condltons of the community.
During the cold months, there have
been accumulations of dirt and rub
bish everywhere, and it is not too
early to get rid of them. Let every
person get busy in the work of clean
ing up. Tho house, the store, tho
barn, the shop and every other place
in tho community demands attention
at this time, and the municipal au
thorities must not think that they
aro exempt. They have the, biggest
job or all on their bands, in looking
after the streets and alleys. Some
of these public places demand ini'
mediate attention, in order to keep
the sanitary conditions wholesome.
Town officials ought to set tho pace
in tho matter of the spring clean up.
Their attitude toward this important
matter is quite likely to be copied by
the business men and the household'
,ors.
Death of David McLaughlin.
(Communicated.)
David McLaughlin, a widely known
and highly respected citizen of Rock
Lake, died at his home Sunday, Mar.
23. Ho had been in poor health for
some months, but the end came sud
denly. He was GO years of age. He
was of a cheerful disposition, always.
welcoming the coming and blessing
their departure with a "bon voyage,"
and will be sadly missed by a wide
circle of friends. He was a good
neighbor, a highly esteemed citizen
and was known as a man of energy,
honesty and integrity. His funeral
was largely attended on "Wednesday,
March 26th, at St. Juliana's church,
Rev. J. J. 'Herreron omciating. In
terment was made in tho Rock Lake
cemetery. Besides his wife and step
mother ho is survived by tho follow
ing brothers and sisters: Francis, of
ltocK .Lake; Joseph, of Scranton;
Mrs. James Bloomer, of Poyntelle,
Mrs. M. Foley and Mrs. F. Stevens,
of New York city; Mrs. Joseph Rell
ley and Mrs. Frederick Kane, of Rock

Leonard, James Clune, Frederick Mc

Rule for Finding Golden Number of
Any enr.
The Golden Number of any year
can be found by adding 1 to the
number representing the year in
ordinary notation, and then divid
ing the sum by 19, the remainder be
ing the Golden Number for that
year. For instance, add 1 to 1913,
divide by 19, and the quotient Is
100, with 14 remainder, and this re
mainder Is the Golden Number of
the year 1913. It shows that 1913
is tho fourteenth year in a Metonic
Cycle, and that five years later thoro
will be a new moon on January 1.
The date of the first full moon of the
year being known, it is easy to cal
culate tho dates of all the other new
and full moons that follow. The first
now moon of this year occurred on
January 7.
