' | AVHKEUXG DISTRICT'S RKl> CROSS "BIT" ; Ever since Florence Nightengale devoted herself to smoothing the pillow of sufferins in the Crimean war woman has. been called to increasing | . service in the wars of men. Hut it was not until her ministering work was ! organized in the Red Cross Society that h^r labors became more efficient and i "her sacrifices more fruitful in seconding the work of the surgeon and thoi physician. The sentiment that cast the Red Cross nurse in the mold of an , angel has given way to a recognition .of iu-r material presence, to the physical J practicality of her duties, which require a strong mind and a stout heart to | perform. To-day thousands upon thousands are caring for suffering humanity In : the war hospitals of Europe, as well as in the improvised shelters on the j battle lines. Over two years of this unremitting work has told on them and j they must have help in their exhaustion. Hundreds of American nurses are . already doing duty there, and many more are preparing to follow under the j " banner of the American Red Cross, which will follow the flag to be carried! by oar^soldiers on the battle front. This gives us a direct heart Interest <n the work abroad, as the war at last Is to be brought home to us. It will bring : "us sacrifice, sorrow and suffering. It 1? up to us to mitigate the suffering "and help restore the wounded to the beet of our ability and generosity. It is going to take a considerable sum of money to equip and sustain the -Jied Cross units abroad. A campaign for 5100.000,000 will be conducted this, ,week throughout the country. The allotment for the Wheeling district :s JS150.000. This may seem a large sum coming on the heels of the demands jnade upon us for the Liberty Loan, and what we hare already contributed '.o i the Wheeling Chapter, but inasmuch as our Liberty Loan allotment was over- 1 subscribed half a million, it is evident there is still some money in Wheeling. i - ? i lying around loose that ought to be working for the Great Cause. The i "Intelligencer is confident that the amount assigned to the Wheeling district! "will be made up, but it i.s going to take some work to get it, just as it was -like pulling teeth for awhile to awaken the people to their duty toward lh<? liberty Loan. The character of the organization that has been effected to conduct the campaign in this section, and which opens tonight at the; -Scottish Rite Cathedral, is a large guarauree of the success of the endeavor, but the men at the head of it must have the active co-operation of all patriotic citizens to m?ke the campaign the unqualified achievement it deserves. Come out to-night and indicate that you are ready to "do your bi : " ? a big bit. One feature of this call for mouey is that you will get no interest for your outlay, but any funds you may invest in the Red Cross will repay you 5n some thing more precious than a monetary return. You will have the satisfaction Of contributing something towards easing the pain of the wounded, of restoring 'he mvU and afflicted to health. Your mite will help towards giving ? "our boys" sanitary surroundings and providing some comforts to cheer them iu their lon? i> \igils on the field aud relieve the monotony of the camp. And perhaps ime i>t" the<? "hoys" may be your own, or some one dear :o you. j You never can ttll. ? THE FOE WITHIN It was ? George Washington that warned us that perhaps the greatest menace to i !i e republic would be the foe within rather than the enemy with out. So long a; such creatures as Kmrna Goldman and her coparcener in evil. Alexander t'erkman. are al lowed to proclaim anarchy openly un der an elastic application of the con stitutional guarantees o f free speech .^ve will have such disturbances as that provoked in New York, when mis guided women shouting "down with the drat'," had to be roughly handled by the police befltre they were dis psrsed. The outbreak. bore a "close re semblance to the food riots last year, when women from the Kast Side of ,>>"ew York ran amuck, being, incited to their deeds of violence by unscrupu lous agitators. ?? Goldman and Berkinan have no ideas in common with the iustitutious of this country. They preach nothing but riot, revolution and chaos. They live and thrive off the ignorant and the credulous, upon whom they im pose their vicious teachings. They have no chance of successfully inaug urating the social convulsion they ad vocate. but they are potent agents of .mischief in I?-adinz their victims and dupes to commit outrages. In these times when the puhli,c uiind is ovcr " strained it would be an easy matter to get their insidious poison to work ing on the weak-minded and the law less. and before the moh was checked ? great loss of life and destruction of property would be accomplished. The law has been too patieiu with these enemies of society, who are . nothing but, the spawn of hell. It is time they were snuffed out. They are dangerous beasts running at large. 'Free speech in this '.country, or any ?other nation, for that matter, does not ? .mean free treason, and of atl the trai tors possible in the United States Goldman and Herkman are the spirits of the abomination of desolation, the vampiric familiars of the Prince of Darkness. HARDING HITS HOME The habi; of administration Sena _? - tors and "Representatives to assume a _ monopoly of pairiotism in the coun try simply because they "stand by the President" has been held up to the public in its true liehr by Senator Warren G. Harding, of Ohio. "I think in making the world safe for democ racy," remark* Senator Harding, "we OLRht to make a contribution in our country by making democracy safe for tie American people by putting patriotism above partisanship tn times like these." Those. words were uttered In commenting upon a speech made In the recent Congressional [campaign in New Hampshire by Sen- i ;? r or James Hamilton Lewis. who told1 'the voters that a vote for the Repub- 1 I lit'an candidate would be a vote for the Kaiser, for Germany and for our; ico/in try's enemies. Senator Harding 'deplores that such an attitude should be assumed by anyone, and the deci sive victory of iIm- Republican candi- | date in that State indicates that thai people are not absorbing arguments of I that kind. ! While .there has be^n a disposition |on t,he part of the Democratic party i to claim this war as their own, and ; \\ iTTc.ii they promised to keep us out jof, ay the way. it will be found that jsh*jniost intelligent promotion of ef j fectiw measures to prosecute it ha* ? come from the Republican side in Con gress; that the most concrete patri otism is sustained by Republican rep resentatives in both houses. The I President, himself, is not free from | partisan bias in this matter, in some ? respects he still retains the notion [that this is his war, and that he re quires no assistance in carrying it on. IJut he must now see that many more Republicans are "standing by" him that Democrats, who are quarreling among themselves to keep the Repub licans from getting any credit for j measures or genuine patriotism, j it is now no party's war. It is the people's war, if it is anybody's, and the people through their representa tive* should attend to it along with the Presidenr. 1 Member? of \Vhoeling.

THE FREE TRADE NURSES The greater part of free trade so jpbistry comes from the college pro cessor. who is strong on theory but j voak. on practical exemplification. The great majority of teachers in echools and colleges are free traders, and there is a reason for it. It is natural that they should be opposed to a prorective tariff. Those employed in public institutions of learning receive | their salaries from the public treas uries. Those employed in colleges not under public control receive their in comes from the procee'ds of endow ment funds. Practically none of them is even remotely interested in the ? prosperity of American industry. So far as they have any personal Interest in trade, they wish to buy goods in [the cheapest market. It would be ! harsh, and, in a measure, untruthful,1 I to say that because college professors (have no personal interest in industrial, ! prosperity, they are willing to advo- j [cate policies that' bring industrial ad iversity. Probably none of them con jsciously takes such a sordid view. BILL! SUNDAY IN GOSHEN BY J. SUMNER STONE N K W VOKIv. .lun-j IT. ? ! t Is t?riri?uii? . ? ? >m ! m !,i ,\>w CHMi. !?? adveri !?*??

He has put Hell on ihe map with the ' assurance for the highbrows that God would certainly damn a gentleman as readily as lie would a "hobo" if lie did not repent. Second, he has. from the start, preached patriotism. Slackers stand in the same category with sinners, i 1 and the most fervid vocables frotn ! Filly's exhaustless supply of munitions scream and burst about the head of the .?slacker. Next to the brewer and sa- 1 loon keeper. Hilly seems to hate a slack er. His third appeal has been for the sale of Liberty bonds. Every night dur- , lng these closing days of the campaign ?y have Liberty bonds, prohibition and religion hot l'rom the hat. Not sa'isfted to do his own preaching of Liberty bonds, be throws in an extra orator every night. Last night Hilly | il rcw out the remark that it was better to pay for a bond than to glw an In demnity tot he bunch of pretzels in Ker lin. Hilly has his critics In Goshen. He had them even in Wheeling. Why not'' ?He' tells us here that he would be mho *h.? v.as playing fouls if a certain bunch of religious slackers- or puzzlers or "pretzels'," spoke well of him. The man or uouimi who won't hit the trail for I'hrlst, who won't live Up to his vows a.s a i hiiK h member, who will hnow, who is a slacker, he consigns all !hes* to hell.

About results: he were a daring man ivho would attempt an estimate pro or ?on. Figures are worthless in measurin< the effects of Hilly Sunday's visit lo N'w York. Seventy thousand "trail hit lers" is but an expression: a collection' i'f "X's" standing for unknown quanti ties. I. as a N'ew York picstor. must say that, while I have had a number of raids sent to me. the results In addition to my church membership -have been ii eager so far. It Is early to say much us to tba'. This I know, that since the first of April a new atmosphere has hern breather by the members of my congregation. I preach once on Sunday during Ooi eampaijfii. Almost every Sabbath since th?-' campaign b-gan pen pie have come ofrwavd to confess Christ in response to 'mv invitations. Men well known In the community as having for years manifested no Interest, never ap pearing In a church, have come out and Knelt att he altar. The Sunday cam paign has made religion popular In New Tork. Me has done for fioshen what h* accomplished in Wheeling. Syracuse, Canton and Buffalo. maybe on a smaller sea le. It is up to the preachers and churches t ' conserve 'tlie results in religious Im pressions of the fervitd preachings id the one and only Billy Sunday. He is not a faker, he is not a grafter. Men rather limn women and children respond to his appeals. Hilly is h unioue genius, com bining hard work with great talent.

Drunkenness, vice, ciime diminishes. I as governor, com. to- nd Hilly Sunday." And yet it Is inevitable that such! should bo the indirect effect of their self-interest. Now if the operation of schools and colleges arftl the rate of salaries paid therein were to depend upon the pros perity of the producers of the l.'nited States, mighty few college professors would continue espousal of the ooc* trine taught by Prof. F. W. Taussig, now the head of the Tariff Commission, when he said: "To import goods is not a source of loss when we import the thing more cheaply than we make it at home." If college professors went on half time when factory hands did; if college salaries were cut when factory wages were cut; if we import ed professors from Europe and Asia instead of those "Made in America," there would soon be a stampede of college professors for an all-embrac ing protective tariff. We should th?'ii have a new tone in our text books on j economics, and students in c lass rooms would hear a vastly different line of logic when tariff lectures were given.

The emergency of the situation can not be too deeply impressed upon us. To meet the needs of the war and of the world, we must produce gen erously, give freely to our Allies, eat 'as much ourselves, but. nn more than I we need, and cspe3iai!\ save the .waste.
