Not a Brass Hand
Convocation But a
Noiseless Benefaction
The Michigan Sunday-school workers,
2,000 strong. who have tilled the Arcadia
and several near-by churches with then
foregathering* and conferences the pa t
three days, have l*en so unobtrusive as
to be almost unnoticed.
This is characteristic of the constn rat
ed services of the Sunday-school adh» r-
Pnts, who forego the lure 01 tha. latt* 1

as this Christian nurture linds fruition in

fidelity disclosed.
Wc gee it in the redemption of Michigan
from rum rule; in the v - ng standard o*
municipal government; in the world-" mo
passion for democracy of righteousness:
in the moral safeguards thrown around;
the soldiery of the nation.
Known by its fruits, the Sunday-school
In Michigan stands approved. A canton
ment of Christian training that >ends to
the battle line such seasoned generals as
E. K. Warren «>f Three Oaks. Prof, Oond
rich, of Albion College, and Henry C.eer
tngs, of Holland, has demonstrated it*
practical worth in a scheme of spiritual
preparedness.
We Hope the Candidate
Does Not Share the View
Os the Political Oracles
The political wiseacres are busy with
the figures of Tuesday’s local election.
Figures which to you merely mean
that such a measure carried or was de
feated, mean more to the.-e oracles.
For instance:
A river precinct returned a majority
In favor of a smaller common council.
The last thing expected by any aider
man fighting to hold his job against a
tremendous public sentiment that the
city would be best served with him
eliminated, was that any river precinct
would turn on him in his dark hour
and help to oust him out and into obliv
, ion.
Could any decent citizen of Detroit ask
for any better reason for discarding the
old and cumbersome system of ward rep
resentation than that in its last hours
it turned to the docks and the dockwal
lopers to save itself?
(’an any decent citizen regret having
voted that system out of existence, now
that he knows it was repudiated even by
the dockwallopers?
The election of a mayor of Detroit ap
proaches.
An alderman who is a candidate for the
Republican nomination for mayor is put
down now by the wiseacre analyzers of
the returns as having a slim chance in
the primaries.
They figure that to he the ca*e be
cause they see this candidate’s chances
reduced 50 per cent by a 50 per cent re
duction in the aldermen who had been
whooping it up for their colleague.
What they really mean is, that the
machine strength of the common council
has been cut exactly in half.
And that is exactly tie reason The
Time** put forth, why the people of De
troit should vote in favor of a -mailer
council thereby placing thems'/lve- f>o
per cent nearer real representative jr*,.-.
ernment.
The Times is not discussing the candi
dacy of the alderman who aspires to U>
mayor.
It is taking n6 position in the matter,
either against or for hi- candidacy, hut
we trust, for IUS sake, that he himself
is not dismayed by this loss of support
in the river district*.
We hope this because the -time ha<
gone by when the otlice of mayor of a
city approaching a population of .1 mil
lion, and still growing, can t*> reached
thru the supnort of bums or thru the
colonization of precincts that were once
bossed and controlled.
This is tla of political awaken-
' v The day of the political machine, par
tisan or bi-partisan, a- a result of that
awakening, has passed.
It is not a healthv time for the candi
dacy of any man for any oflice who i
not prenpied to go before the (K'opie on
the bare sfore of fitness and qualifica
tion.
FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 9, 1917
A Prayer of the Greek*,
Twenty-two < enturies Vuo,
and Modern Reality
We are shocked beyond measure by
the tragedy that - uat.y « acted in
Europe.
The wai »> the greatest of all wars,
the most evil thing that -has ever
en nan in historic times. I■ r pagina
tion cannot grasp it in it> hideous en
-11 ret y.
The mind refu>e> to visualize it as a
And vet, when one turns the pages of
history one is-bound to admit that in
dav> long past, 'ii the NapoievitK wars,
in the Seven Sear war, in the fhiitx
Year war in the many wars that have
staiin-d th«* p.'gts of history wittr blood,
something of the same despair ami hor
ror nfu't have depress'd t - ■ hearts and
the mmda of mem
They, even as we, prayed fo* a peace
with victory. I hey, even as we. iOoked
past the days of carnage to the quiet
ours v the ’ J *
Up th* Wear w -uh: be-:n, when ti.e
ruins would be rebuilt, when the bless
ings of a i;ghteou> peace would once
nic’v ■ v er,joyed t-y men.
It :* a long, long road to that much*
desired goal tor us .til i for the ahies.
The most dangerous em my to civiliza
tion. to humanity, to liberty that the
world has ever known t>e crushed
and humbled before we can even allow
our minds to dwell upon the after-peace.
The kaiser and all his brutes must be
curbed. Their fangs must be drawn.
Their power for evil taken away forever.
When that is done, it w; Vx? possible
once for the men and women of
the great demux*!atic of 'he earth
to Turn away from blood-letting and
shell-making.
In that happy, far-ofT day it will be
possible for Frenchmen and Belgians,
contemplating their ruined villages and
their wasted fields, to pray a prayer that
was made by Theocritus of the Greeks
22 centune* ago. It is just a- fre*h.
just a* poignant, just as moving and just
as true today as when the poet wn *e it:
“ and I pray that all the
towns the hands of enemies have laid
so utterly waste may be inhabited again
of their ancient peoples, and their fields
labored and made to bring forth abun
dantly, their lowlands filled with the
bleating of fat flock* in their tens of
thousands, and the twilight traveler
warned to hasten hi* stops bv the home
going of innumerable herd*; and I pray
likewise that against the time when the
cricket is fain to sing high in the twigs
overhead because of the noon tide-re* ting
shepherds, against that time, the time
of sowing, none of the fallows ho left
unturned of the plough, and as for the
weapons of war, mav spider* woave over
them their webs, and of the war
cry the very name be foj-got.”

Hfi- i; a five country. And of course
that lays the road w ide <t|>«‘n t«> the can
tankerous gentry whose crt*ed is that
whatever their country does is wrong..
When the < lass A Soreheads stop for
I »reatU, which cla-s includes those who
think we should not have gt»ne to.war at
all. the • lass It Soreheads begin to croak,
t is cla-s bolding that we diiln’l go to
wai soon enough, we didn’t prepare in
time, and we are now bungling the job.
Hence it might be well to set* what the
old l . S. A. has done in the last half
year or so.
There has been organized a social and
economi • revolution greater than ever
was in any country in the world, while
thi> greatest d* rnoeracy ha - transformed
itself into a war machine.
t ongres has voted .y 21,000,000,000 to
the business in hand, an amount about
c«jual to <ireat Britain’s three-years’ ex
penditure, and- equal to one-ipmrter of
the Allies’ total outlay.
W lien the war broke out our army con
tained approximately 275,000 oilicers
and nun; now wo have around 1,700,000
ready to tight in a few months.
I hen there were 0,600 men in the
medical department; now 70,000.
W *• used to si end $ lOO.mmO.moo a year
for ordnance; tin year «•< *ss spent
$.1,000,n00.0P0, and authoriz*‘d another
$2,000,000,000.
Our program provide; for. 20 o<)0 air
) ane-. wui. 100.000 enlisted men and
10.000 fliers in this service.
Ih< ugh dot a:! may not be given, thou
sands of American soldier-; have ijuietly
gotten to rranee to join the forces under
(■enera! I’er.-hmg. They are not only
a-aming the la'culiar fighting tactics of
this war, but are building railroads, fell
ing trees, sawmg lumber, flying air
planes, and working in hospitals abroad.
On* month after we declared war the
fir-t division of American destroyers
reached luiropean waters. SiiKe theu
our navy ha> made good; it has put the
punch m submarine warfare, it has taken
over the patrol of this side of the At
lantic. released British ships, and has so
■utfelj convoyed our troops to France
ha!, at the hour of this writing, no
transport ha.- been |<»st.
U o are building ships faster than the
most, optimistic ever dreamed possible.
Ue have loaned the allies $2,516,400,-
000.
and he ab est business m'*n of the coun
try have left their private affairs and
co-op** ated with the President and his
cabinet in organizing the whole gigantic
productive, manufacturing and transpor
tation industries of the nation.
I ruler Mr. Hoover, tin farmers, the
miliei . the par Hers, tin* fish industry,
the cold storage plants, the dairies and
the foodstuff mdu tries are falling in
c»
line.
Ihe fuel producers are being co-ordi
nated under Hr. (onfield.
The railroads have placed themselves
under the lead u\ li p of haniel Willard,
it the etvict «*f the government as a
unit ot efficiency.
Stop have been taken to tighten the
food blockade around Herman)*.
With the $!<M).o00,000 nest egg the
lied (Toss is* doing magnificent work
among the wounded and helping to ro
build the «leva*tated towns of Trance
and Klander .
Quietly, efficiently, and with grim pur
pose tl great'- t 11* O'. r; lt nation on
earth is doing its share.
One hundred million intelligent free
men are seeing to it that their F’resi
lent’s words shall U* no idle bluff.
