Immediately it was post-? ed on the State Journal bulletin boards and sent out In extra editions.

T i O TH1 TOPEKA DAILY TATE JOURNAL FRIDAY EVENING. NOVEMBER 8, 1918 HUN IS DESPERATE Last Great Battle Is Growing Greater.' Mouth of the Pocket Holding Him Tightens. London, v. Wireless). The 8 (British Admiralty Times' 8 -war cdrres- pontient said: "The magnitude of the victory of last week-end becomes every day more apparent. For a month, or more the enemy has been retreating on the line of the Meuse. btt now he has reached the laat stage of his journey. The surest sigsj of our victory is that -hi3 last stage has been more rapid than his first. "A month ago It seemed ffbssible that the Germans in France might be j completely enveloped from the east' and west. was then that General Luden dorff, who had set the peace negotia tions in motion, drew back because he then thought the German armies could be extricated without tlisaster. "Now the prosyect for the German armies has. darkened apain. Whereas, a week ago, most people would have prophesied that the Germans would escape without irretrievable disaster, ruin again stares tbem In the face' Only One Working. "What we are witnessing now is the destruction of the system of railway communication which tempted the enemy into Belgium. The net result of recent operations -Is that of all of these railway lines, 'onlbthe one down the valley of the Meuse is working. Two are lost and of the remainder, the one thru the Meuse valley-is threat en 1 and the other, Metz railway, is working In c nnection with a different base, so that the east and west wings of the German armies are now separated. Mouth Is Narrowing. "The outh' of the pocket Is now narrowing, and from Avesnes east of the Normal forest, to Mezieres, where Hie Meuse railway enters the cover of the Ardennes, the distance is between fifty and sixty miles. Thru this nar row passage, the who 3 of the German armies now in France have to squeeze and there is only one railway in this r.sion whch is working freely. In other words, the waist of the German lines say between Lille and Verdun has been compressed to one-third of Its former dimensions. That gives some idea of the agony thru which the German army is now passing. "Nor is the worst of te compres sion over." The enemy, for very good reasons, held out on. the line of the Alsne as long as he could. That line is now lost on its whole length, thanks to the renown activity off the French and the recovery of the American army from its transportation difficul ties and Ahe real squeeze of the Ger man army is only just beginning. "Worst still, the bottle neck thru which it is passing is a narrowing one and congestion. Instead of decreasing, will tighten. It may even be doubted whether tha Meuse line will be tena ble. In a sentence, the military situa tion is most desperate for the enemy."

Altho the White House sates were closed it was but a few minutes before the executive mansion grounds were surrounded by cheering throngs and the president himself unconsciously contributed confirmation to the belief v of the people that war was over when he appeared on the front portico of the White House and waved a hand kerchief to the crowd. For more than an Hour the White House grounds were surrounded by the surging, cheering, shouting, singing throngs of men and women, thousands of whom never returnW to their work Almost a Delirium. Officials of the government were much disturbed as the celebration grew in intensity Inasmuch as there had been no official confirmation of the report that the armistice had been signed.

Shotgun bullets and steel nosed bullets from automatics rained down fcom the sky. Many were careless with their fire arms.

EDDY IN CITY Former Leavenworth Woman Returns Home From Orient. 1 She Talks on Future of Ameri- can Woman. A, visitor in Topeka this- week was Mrs? Katherine Willard Eddy, who has just returned to the states from a trip, thru the Orient. She was a guest of honor and the principal speaker at a. meeting of workers for the woman's section of the united war work campaign, held at the Y. W. C. A. Mrs. "Eddy formerly made her home in Leavenworth, Kan., and her present residence Is New York City." She is a sister-in-law of Sherwood Eddy. Mrs. Eddy addressed the meeting, explaining, the necessity of. the suc cess of the campaign for funds by which women in war work may be properly cared for by societies that minister to their comfort. ."The war has placed the English woman worker on the same footing as the English man," she 'said, "and in America the effect is going to be the same. Fox the 65,000 officersin the army, there are 67,000 officers in administrative work, and womc.i are joining in that administrative work and need the same, benefits that the men in the arniy and bc.-i of the army need. Conservation Kcal Job. "The conservation of the girlhood of the .nation is a real war job, and a part of this work is with the foreign born womc.i in this country. The Y. W. C. A. has a bureau for instruction of non-Rnglish speaking women thru .which the war is interpreted to them, and by which a bureau of social mor ality operates for the instruction of the daughters of foreign families. "The women in industry need friends to regulate the circumstances of their employment. In Bridgeport, Conn., I saw a woman 75 years old going to work at 6:30 in the evening to work all night, and with her a girl of 16." A discussion of plans for the drive was conducted by Miss Allena Gra1r ton, state director of the woman's sec tion of the campaign; Miss Louise Cur tis, who spoke on the Victory Girls' organization, and Miss Helen Dunn, who told" of the work of the girl stu dents. A letter is being sent out to leaders of all large organizations in the, state, instructing them to call small meet ings in. .preparation of the drive. It is expected that many small sessions will have even a better effect than a few large meetings. XMAS FOR WORKERS Packages Srfay Be Sent to War Char- Uy Men in France. The Y. M. C. A., Salvation Army, Red Cross, Knights of Columbus and othe.- war workers with the soldiers in France are to have a Christmas pack-' nge, too. me government ana tne Red Cross ave arranged for taking care of all the soldiers and announce-n-ent was mcJe today thatthe civilian workers doing any sort of. work around the army camps, billets, hospitals, canteents and other places in France should also receive a Christ mas package. Those Topekans who have'friends in France outside the army, to whom they wish to send a package, should go tJ the Red Cross mailing station4! at 607 Kansas avenue.. There they win make an application, giving the name and tile branch of service of the pro posted recipient. A Red Cross carton will be provided and taken home and packed. Then it is t'o be returned to t mailing station and there inspect ed, wrapped and mailed. The person wishing to send the gift must pay the postage all the way to France. A record of these packages v 11 be kept and only one package can b- sent to a person. If any Topekans have friends to whom tney wish to send a package they must get together and make up a joint package to be shipped from Topeka. The usual reg ulations for army packages will apply to the civilian workers: Here, is the rule on this matter: "When two people wish to send a. parcel to the same individual they p.-ould co-operate In sending a com. bined gift." A special label, addressed by the sender must be used in sending these civilian workers gifts. The army fur nishes labels for all soldiers. The postage must be paid clear to France for war workers parcels. For soldiers the postage Is collected only to Eo boken. N. J. These are the only dif ferences in the, regulations. YANKS ARE GRITTY A They Will Not Admit Being Hurt, Even in- the Hospital. "Paris, Nov. 9. Many American sol diers' when treated in evacuation hos pitals refuse to admit being badly bjjrt even when their wounds are. most serious and painful, say Red Cross workers who serve chocolate and cig arets to them. "Look at my partner over there. He stooped three pills, I only got two. Serve him first," said one Missouri boy to a Red Cross worker passing out hot drinks. ""Nothing the matter with me. I'm lucky, my buddy was killed, another man told a worker as she put the rub ber tube Into nis mautn so tnat ne could sip chocolate while lying on a stretcher in a hospital train. Another boy said that all he wanted was a little talk with an American girL A man with four wounds complained bitterly at being sent back after he had caDtured a machine-aun nest single handed and taken eight prisoners. "Only eight. he repeated over and over again, "and I promised my girl back in Wisconsin that I would get at lease, twenty oerore mey got me.

Washing ton, I. C. Sometimes people get their lines crossed aitd confuse service, which is a divine idea and therefore a very benutifrrt thing and a privilege, with servitude, meaning to them something akin to bondage, coraa, "pulsion. It is plain we cannot all shoulder a gun, whether of draft age or not. But we can all march right up to the dangers nt home, shell out freely of our labor, our influence, or the contents of our pockets, as the need mny decide. Even tho this impoverish us rwhich it won't ourt is a country where no hin drance may paralyze our efforts at retrieving dur losses. We are not starting out hungry, naked and cold, our homes blown full of holes. If the boys "can die for a principle, we at home can pay the "freight with a little extra for revenue. Modern democracy has been called the highest Christian prod uct. Ineanlng freedom, to exercise self-government. Thousands, nay, millions are giving their all, life included? for the defense of this precious holding. For Americans has been reserved the honor of turning the scale and fixing the victory. The honor tho unsought, could not be declined, our rank im posing the obligation. THERE FORE, Be a thorobred, pure-blooded. Walk up and PAY. Don't have a blush every time you catoh your own eye. Paltry little sectarian fights are out of order and out of date. There are no Jews, no Gentiles: no sects nor sections. We are ONE. Let there be no doubt WHICH one the one that will Win the War. Come across and DON'T WHINE. MRS. TOM THOMPSON. Secretary McAdoo has announced that, no matter what the results of the pending overtures for peace may be, there will be another liberty loan. To use his expression, "We are going to have to finance peace for a while just as We have had to finance war." There are over 2.000,000 United States sol diers abroad. If we transport these men back to the United States at the rate of 300,000 a month, it will be over half a year before they are all re turned. Our army, therefore, must be maintained, victualed, and clothed for many months after peace 1? an actu ality. In the meantime while prepa rations are being made for another liberty loan, the war savings certifi cates still are available for purchase. To buy them is just as patriotic and as profitable as to invest in liberty bonds.'- It has become much easier to change the entire complexion of con- gress since the senators have been elected by popular vote. When they 1 were elected In the. old way they fre quently managed to wji a sufficient number of legislative seats to return them even tho the congressmen of their party were defeated. The Vote In Kansas should go far ioward dispelling the tear that govern ment operation of public utilities would tend to build up a vast political machine. The railroad1 employes ap pear to have Voted as they pleased and to have pleased to vote against ad ministration candidates. In seeking for causes of the recent Republican landslide the administra tion should not overlook Burleson. He probably cost the Democrats a great man votes and if he remain in the cabinet thru the next two years he will cost them still more. It is suggested that as the allied armies enter a town they send Ger man prisoners ahead to test the vari ous traps that are left by the Huns fof the destruction of their pursuers. That would not be a bad Idea, either from the standpoint of International law or of humanity. When a German sol dier left a cane hanging in such a way as to attract attention, but left a con cealed wire attached which would ex plode a mine when the cane was taken off Its hook, "he mage It quit eertalrt that aorpe Uvea would be lost a a re sult. The setting; of sucl a trap Was la violation of both international law and the laws of humanity. A goodly number of German prisoners standing around while the traps are sprung would soon discourage the practice. SHALL COMPETITION GO? The Mr 'is full of talk to the effect that industrial conditions are to be different after the war, with the Im plication that capital will receive less and labor a larger share of the fruits of Industry. Much of the talk is mis leading, declares tHe Commercial and Financial World, for It presumes. a conflict of interests which does not ex ist. In the first place, it continues, capital itself withdraws nothing from industry; It consumes nothing. Capi tal Is not a living thing; It is not a competitor of labor. It is an aid to labor in production; it helps multiply the quantity of all the things which the millions of men and women who make up the ranks of labor consume. For example the thousand of farm tractors which ire now going into use, eadip representing an investment' of $1,000 or more, are a form of capital. Back of them is an investment of mil lions of dollars, expended in the de velopment of the machine and in use In the plants and working capital of companies now manufacturing Wiem. The effect is to increase the amount of land which one farmer can culti vate, and cheapen the production 'of food. In the same manner automatic spinning and weaving machinery in creases the productiveness of labor in. the textile mills, and capital invest ments in all lines of Industry serve to increase poduction. Since the labor ing clas are the great -consumers ef products it is evident that this class is the greatest beneficiary of capital investments. The idea that labor will be able, sud denly and largely to Increase the com pensation which ft receives is evident ly fallacious so far as small proprietors and comparatively undeveloped Indus tries are concerned. Many of them can barely exist under present condi tions. The uneconomical producer must be disposed of in order to make possible any general advance in wages. So long as he remains a factor, pro tected by "law and public favor, the more efficient producer will be pro tected in his profits. He cannot be required to sell his product below the prices of his uneconomical competitor or to pay higher wages than that com petitor. It is an axiom that the market price for any commodity is fixed by. that portion 'of the necessary supply which is" produced at the highest cost. Therefore there can be no rapid j change In industrial conditions except by eliminating that large body of pro ducers in every line who have been doing business at, or only slightly above, cost. Is thepublic thinking of this class of producers as it talks of industrial revolution? Has it made up its mind to see them go. and to accept the doctrine that the aim thru out industry should be not to provide the greatest number of jobs but to ac complish production in the most eco nomical manner? In other words are the trusts again to have an inning? It is pointed out by the National City bank that there are economies in consolidating com petitive concerns, reducing overhead charges, making It possible to place charges, Increasing thej ability to do researcn work, eliminating transports- tionchargesmaking it possible to place both production and distribution to greater advantage and improve serv ice in many ways. But the reorganization which this Involved disturbed many "people vand excited antagonism. There were in stances of hardship, and of arbitrary and unfair 'use of power. Popular opinion was against the consolidations. Sympathy was with the email opera tor, even tho lis methods were uneco nomical; it was thought to be more democratic to have a greater number of proprietors. Moreover, It was said that however great might be the econ omies achieved by the trusts, they were not passed oh to the public. The. effect of this popular opposi tion to big business has been seen in the anti-trust laws, which, however, have "been only partially successful In stopping ,the movement at which they were aimed, because when brought face to face with highly developed or ganizations evidently realizing impor tant economies and rendering valu able public services, the courts have sought to find an interpretation which would allow them to live, While estab lishing restraints against the abuse of power. Election is over and the war is near ly so. There is nothing really impor tant now to occupy the public mind except the seven-in-one drive for funds for war work societies. This will be of short duration. There seems, therefore, to be no occasion for delaying the Christmas shopping. From this time-forward A little should be done each fay until the job shall be completed, The labor unions and he railroad workers cannot be accused of sacri ficing their principles' to their busi ness interests in the recent election. This is proved by a glanee at the fig ures frem Topeka's shop district,, the Second ward. This ward is normally Democratic and voted that way this year on local offices in a large meae ure, but gave a heavy vote against the Democrat candidates for United States senator, congressman and governor, TOPKKA STATS JOURNAL INFORMATION BUREAU FREDERIC J.

The plan is one which has proved success ful in Australia. It forms a basis of a. imuuu&t jjmii uv luu seiLiemeirt, now being worked out Jy-the depart ment of the interior, winch is intended to provide farms for soldiers, and te begin a system of ordered rural de velopment in the United States. Dr. Elwood Meade,--who Is crfatrman of the California board, has been called to Washington by the secretary Tif the interior and is working out the details of this plan, which will be laid before congress as one of the most important measures of reconstruction. His re port ;-n the California settlement which has just been laid before the governor of that state, begins With the following paragraph: -v "The California land settlement act provides f of a demonstration in planned rural "development. Instead! of leaving things to happen and then correcting conditions when they hap pen badly, this state seeks, thru this act, to create organized rural neigh borhoods in accordance with caret jlly thought-out plans. Its first- ideat therefore, is educational,- to show what democracy in action can accom plish." -r In other worijs. California deliber ately set out to show the nation how this problem of getting the land cul tivated thoroly and well might- be solved by taking, thought and exer cising justice. Inasmuch as its set tlement, at Durham is a recognized success,, and "similar settlements are being planned, it claims to have aci complished this. The present admin istration reCOSniSeS thA nnrr-OM extent of calling' the chairman of the auiornia Doard. into consultation with a view te aflabtine- thi nn- fornia-Australia plan to thej needs of the nation In brief,, this is what the California land settlement board did. It pur chased a tract df land (between 4,009 and 6,000 acres), subdivided :Jt Into farms and, smaller subdivisions Ad form homes ,for laborers, cleared, and ,vu,su iiip jttiiun, proviuea irriga tion facilities, built houses, and barns; planted crops and offered the. farms for sale at prices based upon the pro ducing power of the-land, and upon, terms which provided that the pur chaser pay 5 per cent of the value of the land and 40er cent of the value of the improvements, and had twenty years In which to pay the remainder. Having installed the farmer upon his farm under these relatively favor-i-able conditions, the &tate of California does not leave him to his fate.' It has, in the first place, insured him a sup pry of labor by providing homes for the laborers where they may live in dependent and comfortable lives. In the second place, thru its state agri cultural eolege and the 'United States department of agriculture, it offers him the best scientific advice upon farming matters, and uses its influence to see that this advice is complied with. It also shows the farmers how, by organizing their colony as a unit for the purpose of marketing their product, they can obtain fair prices for the same. In return for these ad vantages, the settler has to comply with certain conditions. He must be a citizen of the United States, or have declared his intention of becoming one, and the fcolrd reserves the right to reject any application for a farm that it sees fit to reject. The settler must actually live upon his farm, and must begin his residence within- six months. He may not have more than one of the allotments. He must cul tivate the land In a fhanner approved by the ,board and must keep all im provements in good order, and insured. He cannot sell the place .for five years,, and then only with the approval of the board. If the settler doesnot live u to these conditions, the contract between him and the state becomes, void, and the amounts he has -paid are consid ered as rental for his occupancy'. In substance; the board provides flarmers with farms upon which they can work with profit. It gives them every assistance in doing so. In re turn, it demands that Jhe farmer must be a responsible 'and capable person, and f Vlflt nek nnict ragllv HoDira n llva upon and cultivate his farm, not mere-1 ly acquire it for speculative purposes. The provision of small plots of land and houses for farm laborers is one of the most interesting In the Cali fornia plan. Right now the difficulty ftf fjlrmOTa All m-in. tha TrnitH Stat is that lhey cannot obtain laboc Every working man has gone to the cities. This is not a matter, for surprise when the conditions Of farm labor in this country are realized, The typical "hired man" has np home, and little chance to acquire one. He Is under paid and has little chance of bettering his condition. Under the California plan the hired man obtafns a house in which to live and a plot of ground upon which he may raise enough "for his own needs. He has the essentials of Independence. He is not at the mercy of hjs employer. On the other hnnA Via la ti o,- -n nnDKlli, atnJt I the employer may count UDon his services at a farm wage. Many of these laborer allotments, too, haxe been taken by artisans, such as car penters and cobblers, who are of great value to the community. The first California land settlement was just opened to entry last June, but the board is able to offer consid erable evidence that it is a success. Tere were twice as many applicants for allotments as there were allot ments' All of the farm laborer allot ments were taken. The board has compiled a detailed statement of the operations of each of its applicants, showing that nearly all of them prosperous and are fulfilling the con ditions of their occupancy. The method by which this system eould be applied to the far -a lands of the nation as a whole has not been worked -out in detail; but co-operation Between state and' national govern- Lments, leaving the greatest possible rreeaom to eacn local community,' is to be the keynote of It, Thus, it has been suggested that the states might contribute the lands, and the national lilts in iui Vv tLidiivttiA a i iiaa at ouivuuhi hiB. tot doln,hi- B the reela- mation service and the department of agriculture.

Thus in some states hav ing rich and well-cultivated farm lands, there might be no demand among the rural population for such a system. In that ease, such a state could stay out. Other states would probably be glad to have their arid lands, swamp lands or cut-over tim- bor lands improved by the government upon these terms, while leaving alone lands now under cultivation. In still the purchase of agricultural lands by the state lor the purpose of settler ment- under such a system would be desirable. Everywhere the pTfnrt would be to meet the real needs of toe community byvmtelligeot co-opera-, lion with it. The- project derives great present importance from the fact that It would enable returning soldiers, who desired to be farmers, to obtain farms on favorable terms. It is also pointed out that the great reclamation wofks which would accompany the establish ment of the system on a national scale would afford' employment for great numtovirs-of these men, and would give' the thrifty ones an immediate oppor tunity to 'save up the small amount of eapnai necessary lor the. first, pay ments nn a farm EVENING -STORY i?

Helen Lawder, stepping out of For rest's office about two hours later, heard two men wrangling in.the lobby, stepped back again and peeped thru tne crack m tne door.

What Jacob could not Win in a fair fight, he secured by intrigue and deception This lesson, wnicn win De studied by twenty million persons in North America, comes almost in the by 'peace traps. The story itself is a. literary classic Isaac,-the patriarch, Had grown old. His sons, Esau and Jacob, were tem peramentally different. The older, Esau, the hairy one, was an impulsive, reckless, strong-fisted hunter, without fixed 'principles. When he was hun gry he traded his special rights of the first-born, to his shrewd brother, Ja cob, or;a-mess of pottage. As for Jacob, he was the sort who studied other men's failings in the hope of prottting by them; .and -we may be sure he was opportunely reaay wun ss bowl of savory lentils when his broth er returned home ravenously hungry. "Business is business," was Jacob's motto;, and he could not afford to get angry; politeness was part of his stock In trade. He was his mother's favor ite, for Rebekah was the sort of woman who, showed' favoritism; and Jacob, unlike Esau, could be trusted never to mar his prospects or ruffle the household b bringing home" a 'heathen wife.. A Story WlUiorft a Hero. These is' not a gleam- of heroism in this tale. Isaao-was a glutton (it is easy to see where Esau got his appe tite), willing to promise his filial bene diction 'if Esau would only" bring him a, mess of savory venison. Esau we know as the hot-bloeded, wastrel type. Jacob was at tricky, lying, "diplomatic" self -seteker, who kept faith with nobody. Rebekah was responsible -largely for. this unscrupu lousnesa, which she and later her brother, Labarl, displayed to Jacob's undoing. Her favortism overreached itself, jfof'when Jacob fled (he. was the flee ing kind), from "his outraged brother she looked upon his face for the las time. It was at his mother's insti gation that- Jacob slew two tender kids, which she made up into a make Deneve venison stew, in order to a,e ceive the blind old man. She covered her son's hands with goat's skin, that they might seem to the touch like the hands of Esau..' Likewise, RebekbJ aressea jacoD in nia -orotrversr domes. Evidently this was not tne first open case and snapped the door. "And it stays there, get me 7" You're a nut growledl Zepp, tak ing another -tack, "rre ruinin' yer- self, 'at's all;' Ain't she settin' y' back the -cost of a new suit -An' didn' she call you' a, hobo Mackay smiled ruefully. 1 "I uss she's tight there," he ad mitted "Anyway, -that's no reason why the poor girl, should suffer.

"Mr. Forrest, please, can I see you a minute?" "she pleaded, and Forrest, noting her anxious face, banishedi his frownand bowed her smihns to a Chair. "No, I can't, sit down," she told him h iedly. want to tell you something." And then, into attentive ears, she poured everything she had seeu and heard. "And now, Mr. For rest, can you wil you do me a favor?" "I'll try," he promised, smiling. He, too, couldn't resist the appeal of those soft blue eyee. "Will you call .Mackay in and give him a present pt 1507" she asked; "He's done so much for me, and I want to repay him. Here it is."

Four of his senses had been captured by Jacob, and the other, sight, was- lacking, so in full oriental forth he gave the irrevocable paternal blessing of the first-born to the un deserving Jacob.

Of that, more, in a later lesson. "Orthodoxy" and Honesty. A startling surprise awaits theper- son' who studies this story in the com mentaries. It te that many learneo fHvinn have tried to defend and ex plain away the dastardly deed of Ja cob and Rebekah. They talk about other times and codes, arid the even tual good to the patriarehial succes sions, and so on ad nauseam. One looks for the straight-flung condemna tion that Jesus was accustomed to visit upon dishonesty and hypocrisy. Right here opens up the most pertinent mes sage of the old story. Neither religion nqr statecraft have any right to lie -or cheat."- There is no "divine right" for klnes or for church folk. Evil on the narf nt the nious is double evil. A Christian man said in ny hear ing recently, "Two things concern rne in the present religions situation of America. Onei is the tendency of or thodox. Christians to draw into ex clusive, aad censorious groups, judging all the world in chaos only by their own rather intolerant standards of orthodoxy.' Theltsuth wins nothing by that sort of concract; truth must be proclaimed, in lbve and in ever out reacbing activity. A person's ortho doxy is to be determined nejt by the crowd or organization to wnicn ne oe lones. but bv h:s devotion and Christ likeness in bearing the message of truth to the unreached or uncon- vinced.- "In the second place," continued this observing layman, "i am fairly appalled at the Indifference, of some professional proponents of orthodoxy to tire standards of common honesty. Here, for instance, and it is only an instance, is a scurrilous little sheet "of a church weekly largely devoted to defaming all whose orthodoxy it oheoses to" question and It has long been financially maintained, I am told, by the family of America's most infamous degenerate and murderer. Naturally.-it has no word of condem nation for him, nor any .suggestion that his jiame should be eliminated from the church roll, where I am told it still remains, in ms continual con troversies, its editor unblushingly lies and' misrepresents, often obviously so; yet his 'orthodoxy' Is not thereby Im paired." Those are scathing words. The man who, spoke, them is himself an active Christian worker, of the conservative type of thinking; who adheres to the Bible" and to the historic teaching of the church- concerning our Lord. He has placed his finger upon a sensi tive spot. The test of .the righteous is righteousness, and not credaV state ments. We. have the authority of Je sus for that. When Wrong Is done by Isaac or Jacob or Rebekah it is not to be glossed over or palliated or ex cused. Religious thinking must be honest Thinking- We are upon sorry times when the kaiser could cloak his monstrous conduct by appeals to the Deity. In our days of shifting empha sis, every one who accepts the Bible as his law must stress first and con tinually, pTasn, everyday, man-with-man righteousness. Anything less than loyalty to God's own standards of con duct is heterdoxy of the. worst sort. The rjhurch must be ever aflame with a passion for holiness. When Parents Play feaTorltsK v We like 4he picture of' old Isaac, commuhlng with God In the cool of the evening; but we are disaDDOinted in the way his religion Worked out In' nis.own lamily. Home is the first field-for Christian serviced The -Chris tianity that does? not function there isl not likely to amount to much any where else. Isaac's chief business in life, arid it is the chief business, of every normal man. Was to rear a fam ily successfully. He .especially was "ex pected to hand on the torch of life, shining a little more clearly than whin he received it. We wonld rather read of his holding family worship with his self-willed wife and his two difficult boys, than of his communing with God alone under the trees. Father Isaac was. not the head ef his own house. His wife and his sons all treated him' dishonorably. It was not a united family.: Ea'ch parent had a favorite son, which is ruinous to -discipline. Neither was a success in rear ing children.-. And that la the highest achievement possible to a man or a woman. Helen Fairchild Morley wrote in Collier's a little poem that expresses a great truth. i "'Let others write their poetry -And paint their pictures, too: Let others create music i bare You, "While some are mskins; verses And stories by the score I play with blocks and marbles On the Qpor. 4 iff' And when the days are finished, According to Uod's plan, Then may He smile and find complete My masterpiece Man T Making the World Over, Reconstruciron- lies Just ahead of the world.

Telia why eiryona should drink hot water with phosphate In It before breakfast. II I H Headache of any kind, s caused by 'auto-into:;ication which means self poisoning. Liver and bowel poisons cal'ed toxins, sucked into the blood, through the lymph ducts, excite the heart which pumps the blood so fast that it congests in the smaller arteries and veins of the head producing; vio. lent, throbbing pain and distress, called headache. You become nervous, de spondent, sick, feverish and miserable, your meals sour and almost nauseate you. Then you resort to acetanilide, aspirin or the bromides which tempor arily relieve but do not rid the blood of these 'irritating toxins. A glass of hot water with a teaspoon ful of limestone phosphate in it, drank before breakfast for awhile, will not only wash these poisons from your system nnd cure ycu of headache but bwill cleanse, purify and freshen the '.entire alimentary canal. Ask your pharmacist for a quarter Tpound of limestone phosphate. It is .inexpensive, harmless as sugar. If you aren't feeling your best,' If tougue in coated or you wake up with bad taste, foul breath or have colds, indigestion, biliousness, constipation or .sour, acid stomach, begin the phos t phated hot water cure to rid your sys--tem of toxins and poisons.

Tears coursed down his rugged coun tenance which so many violent storms in the past had left impassive. Recov ering himself, he said: "Gentlemen, I thank you. I did not deserve so much honor as you have done me. Let me tell you that I -am proudest that you have associated my name with that of Marshal Foch, that great soldier who in the darkest hours never doubted the destiny of his coun try. He has inspired everyone with courage and we owe him an Infinite debt." At a Difficult Time. Fully master of himself now the premier went on: "Gentlemen, we now are coming to a difficult time.

THE TOPEKA DAILY STATE JOURNAL FRIDAY' EVENING. NOVEMBER 8. 1918 IN AN ORGY OF JOY Topeka Combined All Holidays Into One Thursday, j City Closed Up and Went Wlid Over Peace Rumor. TEN HOURS j)F HILARITY Denials From Washington Had o Effect" on Crowd. Every oise-Mak!ng Brought In Use. Device After tenhours of unbridled cele bration of the report t f the cessation of hostilities on the western front, afer a night of dream .listurbed sleep, Topeka is today coins about her id fairs in her wonted way. It 1 true that "Rome especially tenac individuals l.ave so far be.n -unable to throw ff the wild Joy en KiNdered by the publication of a United Tress disi'-.tch that the "war is over." All Thursday afternoon and far into the wee smaU hours of this morning the streets f Topeka rang -with the tramp of thousands of parading: feet; the air was' thick with the amoke of burned powder .and the blare an.1 blast of motor klaxons and warning signals fell flat and unh eded except as additional noise. Utter disregard of l.fe and limb and of the city ordinances in regard to firearms characterized the bi demon stration. The street was packed from gutter to gutter with humanity on foot. Thousands of automobiles, loaded far beyond capacity, wormed a more or less Cirrcful way thru the dense throni?. From the fenders, the seats, and even the tops of autos and motor &ni horse drawn trucks, sundry ambitious youths glorying In the moment's freedom, discharged shot guns, rifles and revolvers. Nor were they by any means careful to use blank cartridges. It is a certain fact that the vast majority of the firing done in the parade was with real loaded cartridges, and today the police force and the citizens tremble with fear of what might have happened ut did not. I Accidents Were Numerous. There were some accidents incident to the celebration both in the after noon and in the evening. Several pedestrians were knocked down and more or less injured by autos. One serious accident has been reported so far and two girls are said to be in jured badly. In the evening celebration the To peka Street liailway company did itself proud. It dressed up a biff street car in the national colors, bedecked it with the flags of the allies, mounted a small cannon on its roof, and sent it on a tour of the streets. After the first extra of the State Journal carried the United Press news of the signing of the armistice to the people the crowd went wild. Nor would it be quieted by denials. All thru the afternoon the State Journal posted the Associated Press denials on Jts bulletin board and carried them In ,'lt news columns. But the first United 'res3 dispatch ruled the crowd, and denials had no effect whatever on the "crowd or on its participation in the celebration. Within an hour after the first news of the signing of the armistice came over the wires the city was agog with joy-born emotionalism. The fires of a mad celebration- smoldered slowly while the stunned brains of Topeka vainly sought to grasp the momentous news from the front. For an hour it smouldered and struggled for air. Little- knots of people gathered on the street corners, in the aisles of the stores, and in between the long rows of desks in the office buildings. Suddenly some inspired maid with ;.a sweetheart in France felt the surge of blood rushing madly thru her veins, fine was employed in the freight audi tor's office of the Santa Fe. The fever hit her. She grabbed handful after handful of waybills and hurled them from the windows of the big office building. The waybills were valua ble, of course, hut as they fluttered down to the ground and were blown about the city, the burning flaming lire of excitement went in their wake. The clerks' in the olllces poured forth into the rain-tilled air. Without coats or hats or any protection what ever from the elements, the girls ap peared on the streets. It was the torch that started the conflagration of unconsidered celebration. All One Mind. Hardly had the first squad of the g-rls marched down Kansas avenue fror ,ho four corners of the city the hurrying forms of men and women might be seen every indi vidual figure bound for one central point with one idea in mind. Business hVeS.rBOtten- The Prwrvation health was cast to the winds. The city gave itself up to an orgy of Joy The boys over there were safe A great news agency said so. In" the u?"JL ue'n,,a'!, he crowd would have force forgot a thousand city ordi nances and exerted itself in the single t.:fort to preserve life. Simps in Great bcmonstratlon. One of thi sensational features of wa me pun taken therein by the employes at the Santa Fe shops. 1 As soon as the news of the signing of the armistice had permeated thru the vuardians at the gates to the big en closure, the men and women laid down their tools, promptly forgot all about work, hastily formed a line of parade and marched en masse to the avenue. Headed by their own band and resent ing any interference with their cele bration by outsiders, the emnloyes of the shops made an appreciable addi tion to the alreadyreat crowd. newberryby" 12,000 Republican in Michigan Leads Ford by Big Majority: Ietroit.

rrrTi'&T7' A H ATT V CT A TIP O. 1XU J. V-A TOPEKA WOMAN Lost Twenty-five Pounds During Trouble. Takes Tanlac and Change Is Wonderful. "Ifs a positive fact that before I started taking Tanlac I was so weak and rundown that 1 could hardly put one foot before the other." said Mrs. Nellie Etze), of 21 Branner avenue, Topeka, the other day. "For several months," she continu ed, "I suffered terribly from stom ach troubje and IndiBestion. My appe tite was so poor that I just hated to RO to the table, for I never, felt like eating anything and what little I did stores down failed to fsive me any nour-ishmentr-After eoting anything I would bloat up with gas and had a heavy, disagreeable feeling in my stomach as if I had swallowed a stone. There was a dull, aching pain right In the pit of my stomach all the time and I would often suffer from such ter rible sick headaches tl at I could hard ly keep on my feet.- My liver was slug gish and Inactive and my skin was sal low and yellow as gold. I could not leep at all well, and if I did not wake ith a raging headache I would get up feeling Just as tired and played out as I did on going to bed. I didn't have a bit of strength or ambition. I lost all of twenty-five pounds and had fallen off to almost a shadow. 'I heard Tanlac spoken of so highly that I went down town and got me a bottle. I have taken six bottles of Tan lac now and am simply feeling fine. It has relieved me entirely of that In digestion and stomach trouble and I haven't been bothered at all with, gas or those pains I Used to suffer from so much. That tired, worn out feel ing has left me. I have the best ap petite you ever saw. I am -gaining in rreight every day and am better and stronger In every way than I have been in a long time." Tanlac is sold in Topeka by Tully McFarland Drug Co. Adv. BIG EATERS GET KIDNEY TROUBLE Take a glass of Salts before breakfast if your Back hurts or Bladder bothers you. FRAUD JS FOUND Thousands Accepted Govern ment Allowance as Dependents. Investigators Find Many Not Entitled to Money Take It. The American men and women must guard constantly agaiajst Kidney trou ble, because we eat too much and all our food la rich. Our blood is filled with uric acid which the kidneys strive to filter out, they weaken from overwork, become sluggish; the ellnj inatlve tissues clog and the result Is kidney trouble, bladder weakness and a general decline in health. When your kidneys feel like lumps of lead: your back hurts or the urine Is cloudy, full of sediment or you are obliged to Beek relief two or three times during the night; If you suffer with sick headache or dizzy, nervous spells, acid stomach, or you have rheumatism when the weather is bad, get from your pharmacist about four ounces of Jad Salts; take a table spoonful In a glass of 'water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will then act fine. This fa mous salts is made from. the acid of grapes and lemon Juice, combined with lithla. and has been used for gen erations to flush and stimulate clogged kidneys; to neutralize the acids In the urine so it ho longer Is a source of irritation, thus ending blad der disorders.

When you darken your hair with Sase Tea and Sulphur, no one can tell, because it' done so naturally, bo evenly. Preparing this mixture, though, at home is mussy and trouble some. At little cost you can buy at any drug store the ready-to-use prep aration, improved by the addition of other ingredients called "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound." You just dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time. By morning all gray hair disappears, and after another application or two, your hair becomes beautifully dark ened, glossy and luxuriant. Gray, faded hair, though no dis grace, is a sign of old age, and as we all desire a yputhf ul and attractive appearance get busy at once with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound and look years younger. This ready-to-use preparation is a delightful toi Rt requisite and not a medicine. It la not intended for the cure, mitigation or prevention of disease. Adv. Washington, Nov. 8. Thousands of cases of fraudulent acceptance of government allowances intended tor soldiers or sailors dependents have been discovered by special investiga tors of the bureau of war risk insur ance and, a campaign of prosecution and recovery has been instituted. As a result it was announced that about' one-third of the 400,000 claim ing dependency who now are receiving checks 111 be dropped from -the rolls, when it is shown that they were not dependent on a soldier before he en tered the service. v v There are hundreds of cases in which women, not wives of soldiers or sailors, were receiving allotments and allowance checks having been named by the men as their legal wives, while the real wives go without gov ernment aid. Scores of attorneys are understood to bn under investigation for having charged more than three dollars, the leal limit for aiding per sons to get allotments or allowance remittances., All person-i who receive and cash checks to which they are not strictly entitled by law are to be cut off from their remittances, forced to repay the sums they received fraudulently and prosecuted if criminal intent is shown. To carry on this work a di vision of prosecution and recovery has been created in charge of Frank R. Breene. Information or complaints relating to improper receipt or use of government allotment and allowance remittances are welcomed, it was said, a.nd should be addressed.- to Central Counsel, Bureau of War Risk Insurance, Wash ington. Charges will be run down by a great corps of investigators, one or more in -every city and hamlet in the United States, who serve without pay or at the nominal compensation of one dollar a case and report on the family situation in each instance. SLOW IN CANVASSING Official Election Returns May Not Be Known Until Xext 'Week. County boards are today canvassing the returns from Tuesday's state-wide election. The returns will not be transmitted to Topeka until early next week and' official figures for the state at large may not be available for an other week. Since there are no close contests of state-wide concern, the re turns this year attract little attention. Speculation is only as to the size of the Republican majorities all ex cept the Eighth congressional district. where the Democrats won. Several of the large counties may not -complete their canvass of the re turns until next week. 'As soon as the returns are sent to Topeka, they wlll be tabulated by counties and submit ted to the state canvassing board when it meets November 21.' Republicans retained their majority in the state senate by electing party candidates to fill vacancies in the Eighth and Tenth senatorial districts. A. M. Kccrre of Fort Scott, speaker of the 1917 bnise. was -elected to the senate -to jsucceed- the late Senator Robert B. Barr.

It doesn't do much good to try to brush or wash it out. The only sure way to get rid of dandruff is to dis solve it. then you. destroy it entirely. To do this, get about four ounces of ordinary liquid arvon; apply it at night when retiring; use enough to moisten the scalp and rub it in gently with the finger tips. By morning, most If not all, of your dandruff-will be gone, and three or four more appli .tions will completely dissolve ana entirely aestroy every sin gle sign and trace of it. you will find. too. that an itching and digging of the scalp will stop, and your hair will look and feel a hundred times better.

It was requested by the Government of France, officially, f that American maintenance of morale be extended to the armies of the French. Cheerfully it was undertaken, in simple justice for our splendid debt of gratitude. And so you see these huts today, hundreds of them; where French and Americans stand side by side, holding out a hand of friendship to the war-worn, grizzled men whose fighting spirit is an inspiration to our Yanks.

Speaking on latest events and the situation in ..those countries, he says: M i "The region which suffered most ts Macedonia, whsre there- ia -need of prompt and efficient relief work. Since the Bulgarians entered that country conditions have become very serious.. The Serbian advance to- re conquer tbeir country was a. most pro digibuVfeat.' I fallowed it part-of the way. accompanying one- French and one Italian division. Officers- could not hold in check the Serbian soldiers; who dashed ahead, climbing; moun tains like wild goats. "For eight days the Serbian troops were entirely' cut off from their base at, supply. Ifs mysterious how they fed themselves in that region which was entirely deprived of aH food. J18 far as I can make out they lived all that time on grass roots, turnips and similar food. I have seen officers fill their pockets with bread which they crumbled up. Occasionally they would eat a few handfuls. thus keep ing themselves alive for days." OCTOBER MILD0NTH Rainfall, However, Was. Heavy, Re port Made by Flora Shows. The last month was the mildest Oc tober that has been experienced" -In eighteen years, according to he monthly report of the state weather bureau, issued Thursday by S. D. Flora, state meteorologist. It was also the wettest since the instigation of the weather, bureau in 1817. The weather conditions are reported from the ob servations taken at 128 weather sta tions thruout Kansas.

The highest temperature recorded during the month was 97 degrees, which was reg istered at WameKQ on October S. The lowest was 21 degrees, which was reg istered at Blakman, Healy, Leotl, and Russell Springs on October 31. The average rainfall over the east ern third of the state during the month was 4.91 inches: middle third, 4.29 inches; western third, 2.27 inches; entire state, S.92 inches. The highest amount received at any point was 8.05 inches at Bazaar: the lowest, .93 of an inch at Gove. Wheat thruout- the eastern third ts reported to be in excellent condition. Grasshoppers did considerable damage to wneat in tne western third as soon as it showed above the ground. The district around Dodge City suffered. most irom tne ravages of the grass hoppers. Most of this country was re- seeded. -Crain sorghums matured more seed than was anticipated. Corn was drv and husking began before the end of the month. Pastures were reported in excellent condition.

The telegram received by Major Neil Rahn from General Crowder, which has given rise to the misunderstanding is as follows: "During the prevalence of the Influ enza epidemic arrange to have medi cal member of the local board or ad ditional examining committee physi cians inspect all registrants when they report for induction, for the purpose of detecting those suffering with transmissible disease. The entrain-. men.t of men found to be- suffering shall be delayed until they are cured and are no longer a menace to others. Nothing in this 'telegram shall be con--strued as authorizing a local board to reduce Its allotment. If a man's en trainment is delayed, another man must be called in his place." In a letter which has been sent out i to all local boards thruout the state I from the office of the adjutant general j is the following information: "Many local boards are requesting authority to cancel their calls, or arc asking for delay.

This is due to three things: 1. The Acorn Hot-Blast gas-belt, which burns the smoke and gas. 2. The careful provision for warming V the floor. f 3. The remarkable' Aeroflame system of fheat circulation and radiation. The circulating device on an Aeroflame positively prevents air-deadness, which- is a frequent objection to heating a room with a stove, and places the heat in the corners as well as elsewhere. The Aeroflame is made in two sizes, 16 and 18-inch fire-pots. Let us show you this wonderful heater.
