Newspaper Page TextGen. Funston Is a Small Man Holding a High Place—Candler A small man occupying a high place generally exhibits discredita ble folly, if not shameful sin, while thus misplaced. We have a case in point in a re cent performance of General Fun ston. who is tn command of the American forces on the Mexican bor der. Dr. J. B. Gambrell, of the Texas Bap tist state mission board, proposed to the home mission board to send its evangelistic staff to the border for the purpose of co-operating with the Bap tists of Texas m work among the sol diers there. The home mission board :..'ceded to the request, and the evan gelist* began preparation for the work, in the meantime Dr. Gambrell went to see General Funston to get permission to hold the meetings among the soldiers, and to assure this officer of the army proper respect would be given to military requirements in holding the services When the doctor arrived. Gen eral Funston did not see him. but he left a message for him with the chief of staff. * The message was to the effect that it would be agreeable for the preachers representing the Baptists to preach to th- soldiers, provided they did not tell brell was fur told by the chief of staff that General Funston did not want revivals among the soldiers. This in formation to Dr. Gambrell was of the nature of final military orders, and he wrote to General Funston that the terms Imposed upon the evangelistic campaign which had been planned were not ac ceptable. Cbuld anything be more ridiculous and reprehensible than this per formance of the little general from Kansas* By military order he pro poses to determine that preaching to the soldiers concerning their lost condition as sinners Is not proper. \<e also puts a mark of discredit upon revivals of religion. Here is a military censor passing upon a theological doctrine, and also upon a religious procedure. What sort of authority has the pompous little commander for issuing orders of this kind? Is thete a sensible man in America who would think for a moment that General Fred Funston is competent to pass officially upon any religious subject? ft Is but a few years ago he was a ktnd ol adventurer in the Cuban army. From the service of the in surrectionary forces in Cuba he nassed into the American army, and by a series of fortunate circum stances has finally come to occupy the place he now holds at San An tor’o. He is wanting in both intel lectual culture and the highest mili tary training, but he assumes to say the doctrine that men are lost sin gers can not be preached to soldiers, and that revivals of religion must not be promoted in camps. What a contrast such a man presents •o those m’ghty leaders of the Confeder ate forces. General Robert E. Lee. Stone wall Jackson. A. P. Hill and others! These truly great men made no slightest objection to the great revivals which prevailed in the army es Virginia in 1363. At that time there were notable revivals in the brigades of General Wilcox, Gen- freaking all records for Ftswfß<’W. W W n n*w, noSby. ahead cf the fc.l .U4h)l FW ’ rwetrles H»tt»6r»-tr>T<wr ftl 'T?

They were' far too in telligent and far too devout tOj perpetrate any such foolish performance as that which General Funston has now ex ecuted. The spirit of the great captains is beautifully illustrated by a passage from the book entitled. "Christ in the Camp." written by Dr. J. William Jones, one of Lee’s chaplains, which reads as follows: "Let us go some bright Sabbath morn ing to that cluster of tents in the grove across the Massaponax, not far from Hamlliton’s Crossing. Seated on the rude logs, or on the ground, may be seen fifteen hundred or two thousand men, with upturned faces, eagerly drinking tn the dust during prayer, or listens with sharpened attention and moist eyes as the preacher delivers his message, is our loved Commander-in-Chief. General R. E. Lee: that devout worshipper who sits at his side, gives his personal attention to the seating of the multiure, looks so su premely happy as he sees the soldiers thronging to hear the Gospel, and lis tens so attentively to the preaching, is •Stonewall* Jackson; those ‘wreaths and stars' which cluster around are worn by some of the illustrious generals of that army: and all through the congregation the ‘stars' and ‘bars’ mingle with the rought garb of the ‘unknown heroes* as the rank and file, who never quail amid the leaden and iron hail of battle, but who are not ashamed to ‘tremble’ under the power of God’s trutn. I need not say that this is Jackson's hadquarters, and the scene I have pictured one of fre quent oecurrene.” If General Funston had been a com mander in the Army of Virginia, of course he would not have attended such a service: but who can think of suchi a man being a commander in that great army? Such a small martinet would have been utterly out of place in asso ciation with Robert E. Lee, Stonewall Jackson. John B. Gordon. Alfred Col quitt and Clement A. Evans. He could not have endured companionship with > men of such lofty character, and hd would have been still more intolerable to them. This incident does not concern the Baptists alone. If General Funston can thus deal with that great de nomination, he can deal with every other Church in the country after the same manner, and tell all the Christian bodies of the land what their ministers may, or may not, preach to the soldiers, and what sort of services they may, or may not, hold. The matter should be brought to the notice of the authorities at Washington, that this man may be taught a lesson in military decency and propriety. The American people v will not tamely submit to have such a self-constituted censor of religious teaching and Christian rpethods. On what hath this little soldier of fortune fed that he has grown so great? It is to be hoped that Dr. Gambrell and his friends will not delay to take up the matter with the War Department. They owe this duty to themselves and to the religious people of America of all denominations. The soldiers on the border are not in danger of too much religion becoming prevalent among them. The moral dan gers which beset them are even greater , than the bodily perils to which they may ,be exposed. At this time they are not in active campaigning, but are assem j bled in camps, and have much leisure. I Nothing could be more helpful to them, both as men and soldiers, than religious services of the most fervent character. They may have to go eventually into Mexico, where their religious privileges will not be so good even as in the camps which they now occupy. The present lime cannot be better employed than lr» promoting their moral and spiritual wel fare. Doubtless they need much drilling and military training, but the spirit of the men is a matter of far more im portance than any mere expertness in the execution of military' tacticse. (Even the ungodly Napoleon perceived and said that in war the moral element in an army is worth ten times as much as the physical element. In this view the great Corsican was in perfect agree ment with all the notable commanders of armies in Chritendom. So thought Cromwell, so believed Marlborough, and Washington and Lee. But the little general from Kansas, who has had prec ious little military experience save that which he had in Cuba and the Phllip i pine Islands, evidently is disposed to ' reverse the judgment of all these great ' captains. Under General Funston’s command j are thousands of men who have been I brought up under the influence of the Baptist faith, and still more thousands who have been taught to believe that men are lost sinners, and who have been blest in other days by great re vivals of religion. He has no right to interefere with the religious liberty of these men, nor to discredit the Chris tian beliefs and practices of the pray ing fathers and mothers, whom they hake left behind as they have gone forth at the command of their coun try. His conduct in this matter is a piece of intolerable tyranny, which ought not to be endured for a moment. Senator Smith Thanked For Work in Missouri Senator James A.

Ever since I shed copious tears read ing “Thaddeus of Warsaw,” seventy years ago. my sympathies have been enlisted on the side of Poland. Wheth er tha novel that made me cry was a true story or otherwise, th> woes of Poland have been a theme for sOng and story for more than half a cen tury. The partition of Poland between Rus sia. Prussia and Austria, in the time of Frederick the Great, and Maria Theresa, was deliberate!}- planned and systematically perfected and Poland was thus delivered over to Jler masters. Crowded in between great and spacious kingdoms. Poland could not unchain herself. If either one of the great rul ers attempted to agitate Poland, there was nothing left but submission. And Poland has been overrun in the present war, devastated.and exhausted. Russia and Germany have both contended in bloody dispute on Polish soil. But there is a movement now on foot to restore the kingdom of Poland, plan ned by Germany and Austria, with the intention of shutting off Russia, a sort of diversion which may have a weak place in the divide, when Russia at tempts to settle her part of the bar gain It may be understood right now that Russia and Russia’s allies will have a pretty loud say so, before a new kingdom in Poland is finally establish ed under a German and Austrian pro tectorate. Turkey- may be re-established in a similar way and there should be ex acted a fabulous ransom fund from Turkey for the restoration of the Ar menian provinces. We hear a great deal about the crime of Belgian occupation, but the promis cuous slaughter of the Armenian Chris tlans heads the list for barbarous atro city. Germany and Austria will do well to place a check rain on the cruel and blood-thirsty Turk. PROTECT YOUR GOOD NAME! A good reputation once tarnished, is never regained in the community where the tarnish is well known. Such un fortunates should go elsewhere and be gin the start over again. Nevertheless the unfortunates can never forget it, and it will continue to affect life and character. I am moved to write this because I have encountered a case, where a man with a large family has to endure the tarnish stain and It af fects the reputation of all the family. It Is the old story of the innocent suf fering for jthe guilty. A young man who drops down and is overcome with temptation, is handicaped for life. He has deeply wounded himself and by his own let. It appeared to be well con cealed at the time of happening, but it will work out (like a cancer), into the open, where it can and will be seen eventually. But if by chance It remains concealed from outsiders, his loss of self-respect is a sore calamity. There are degenerates, however, who care nothing for character, nothing for the shame inflicted on those bound to them by ties of blood, and outraged af fection, but even such derelicts become a perpetual stain upon the family name and reputation. What a mercy it is when the grave closes over their heads and those who suffered for them pray ed for them and spent sleepless nights for them, can be relieved of the sight of them. I have been reading the story of the gifted Bronte sisters (and Charlotte Bronte, the authoress of Jane Eyre, and Shirly. holds first rank everywhere and for air time), who had a degenerate brother who made then- home miserable by his dissolute and degenerate habits: and the vivid effect comes out in the writings of those magnificent women, where the strain on their mental forces was so painfully acute and humiliating. They were tortured by their affection for this only brother, and he, burn of jhc same parents and reared in the same home, made haste to reach low levels in vice and degradation. The reading world has unfailing pity for the long-suffering sisters and one feels dis posed to ask why such ne’er-do-wells are so often imposed upon high-toned, upright and truth-loving families. A person can be worth a million dollars and remain poor, If he has lost his self-respect! AUTOMOBILE TRAGEDIES. The tragic death of the mother of Mr. Fielding Smith, when informed of her son's fatal accident between midnight and day last Sunday morning. Impresses itself ver}- emphatically upon those who were acquainted with the family and those who were bound to them by ties of Interest and affection. Two deaths —two coffins and two funerals —all growing out of that fatal automobile excursion—al most within the limits of Atlanta. The lesson taught by the Incident, deals mainly with rash automobile driving. These auto cars rarely kill their owners and drivers when proper care is taken —• a proper speed limit regarded, and prop er hours used for joy riding. They are safer than horses —when they are care fully handled, because a horse, like all other animals —will take spells of get ting scared and I have sometimes thought, owing to defective or failing eyesight—where least expected. Au tomobiles are liable to acidents also, with defective motors or bursting wheels. Therefore it is especially pru dent to guard against too much speed and too careless driving. But the part that moved my earnest sympathy was the excessive grief of the mother! I am inclined to believe that her heart-strings snapped, and the vital spark went out under this strain upon her motherly affection. Thus It is that no one lives to themselves or can die to themselves. For my part, I confess to a constant fear in speed-driving auto cars. I may yet meet my death as so many are doing in a wild-auto car, but I am doing my-best to a void speed-fiends at the wheel, while lam in them. • Suffrage Seems Beaten SIOTJX FALLS, S.

Fruit Culture Along With Poultry Raising Proves to Be Profitable Investment Two Money Crops May Be Grown on the Same Land, Prof. Frederic H, Stoneburn Points Out BY PROF. FREDERIC H. bTONEBUBN. (Copyright, 1914, by Matos-Menz Advt, Co., Inc. > Practically every otic who has land enough to maintain a flock of poultry i» in position to grow some kind of fruit. The two lines of work combine beautifully, each actually benefiting the other tu many ways. Prof. Stonobnrn's timely and suggestive contribution deaerres the thoughtful consid eration of every poultryman who desires to secure the greatest profits from his plant. One often wonders why so many poul trymen confine their adult birds in hot, sun-baked yards and grow their chicks on shadeless ranges, in view of the fact that fruit trees will furnish the neces sary shade and protection and yield a profitable crop in addition. It cer tainly looks like poor business judg ment to fail to take full advantage of the opportunity to secure two crops from the same area, especially when each is a help to the other. Fruit growing in conjunction witli poultry keeping may be developed as a distinct eoTim'ercral enterprise or made a strictly family table proposition, ac cording to the amount of available space. But it is astonishing how much fruit in considerable cash. MANY ADVANTAGES. The advantages possessed by the poul try-fruit partnership may be briefly plantation yields a surplus which brings summed up as follows: The trees and vines furnish the shade needed by chicks and hens, they attract many in sects which the birds enjoy, and the unmarketable fruit may be incorporated in the poultry ration. In return, the fowls keep down the insect pests and add to the soil much valuable plant food which causes trees and virtes to make rapid and vigorous growth. The one disadvantage of the combina tion lies in the fact that much of the pressing work in connection with the trees comes at the season when poultry men are busy with Incubators and brood ers. It often happens that under such conditions one branch is neglected or both are only half cared for and then disappointment is bound to foliow. Os course, this refers solely to estab lishments where both fruit and poultry interests are considerable in extent. On the home plot this difficulty would not arise. Almost any kind of bush, vine or tree fruits may be grown in poultry yards, can be. produced on a very small amount of land and ho woften the home fruit On rented places, where quick returns are demanded, the various canes, blackber ries or raspberries best meet the necessi ties of the case. These may be set in rows or in clumps, depending upon the size and shape of the poultry yards. Gooseberries and currants may safely be planted in yards where the chicks are grown, as they will do litle damage to the low-hanging fruit. It must be admitted that chickens of all ages will pick many of the berries which are within reach: but what of it? Many will be left,-and these are all clear profit, which could not be secured if bushes were not planted. Grapes do especially well in poultry runs, and they are well adapted for use in places where but little space is avail able. The vines should be trained over fences, high arbors or against the walls of buildings, so the clysters may hang beyond the reach of the birds. Ip some cases small yards may be completely roofed in with grape vines, thus afford ing a. cool, shady retreat for the fowls and furnishing a good supply of deli cious fruit. The writer has frequently observed this scheme in operation in city back yards, Invariably to the benefit of both the bird? and their owners. Among the fruit trees which may be used to advantage are apples, pears, peaches and plums. In crowded loca tions these may be set close to the walls of buildings and the limbs trimmed off close on the side of the tree next to the wall. If necessary, the trees may be pruned in lyre akape with their branches hugging the wall, as is commonly done in European gardens. Apple trees are long lived, but are comparatively slow in growth. For per manent yards they are mose desirable, since replanting is not necessary. The same may be said of pear trees, though ' these are usually upright in form and do not furnish as much shade as the wide-spreading anples. PLUM TREES THRIVE IN POULTRY RUN. Plums %eem to thrive especially well in poultry yards, making rapid and vigorous growth. The quality of the fruit grown on plum trees so located is uniformly good. One of the greatest ' pests of the plum is the cureulio, which attacks the fruit, causing much of it ; to fall prematurely, or at least injur ing its appearance ajid value. The fowls may be depended upon to reduce i such loss to the minimum, especially if : the trees are lighly shaken or jarred ■ daily. This causes the insect to drop to i the ground, and it never makes the return trip. In sections where the peach thrives trees of this kind are fine for growing in the poultry runs. They make rapid . growth; in fact, furnish considerable ; shade the second year after planting, i Their foliage is thick, and the trees are . unusually attractive in appearance. From blossoms to fruit, the peach is a source of constant satisfaction. Os course, the fruit trees should be i cultivated, fertilized and pruned. Ordi narily, the hens will attend the first two items, scratching and wallowing in the soil and adding to it a constant sup- i ply of fertilizer which is high in the i nitrogen content. In exceptional cases, ; where the yards are heavily stocked with fowls, too much fertility is sup plied, resulting in an excessive growth of wood, at the expense of the fruit. This condition will not cause trouble until the trees reach the bearing age. CAREFUL PRUNING DESIRABLE. In the matter of pruning, the poultry man will give his trees different treat ment than the professional horticul turist. The latter heads his trees low in order to reduce the labor of spraying and picking the fruit. As a rule, low headed trees are not desirable in the poultry yard, since they interfere with the work of caring for the stock. The i poultryman, therfore, trims his trees in : such a manner as to Insure “head room’’ ! underneath them.- Any one who has at- ’ tempted to round up a bunch of chicks ' under low trees will appreciate the ad- j vantage of keeping the lower branches • well above the ground. Pruning is necessary in all cases; it I is especially demanded where trees are grown in rich soil. Proper pruning pro motes and conserves the vigor of fruit trees and retains a proper balance be tween vegetative growth and fruit pro duction. It opens up ths branches and i admits plenty of sunlight, without which,' much of the fruit will be small in size, i lacking in color and poor in quality. An authority on this subject ha« I tersely summed up the matter as fol lows: "Lack of pruning is frequently re sponsible for fruit of small size and in different quality; for a lack of economy of the vigor and resources of the tree which can be directed toward fruit pro duction, and for premature old age and final destruction of the tree.” It is obviously impossible to give spe cific directions for pruning. This is regulated by the kind of tree, its loca tion and other variable factors. So far as selections permit, each tree should be as symmetrical and well balanced, not only because such are more pleasing to the eye, biff because they have the max imum bearing surface so distributed as to receive the required sunlight. Fruit trees of all kinds are subject to the attack of Insect enemies and diseases of various kinds. When grown in poul try yards they seem to suffer less than in other locations. This may be due to the fact that they are usually in vigor ous condition, and therefore able to re sist disease, and the fowls are maintain ing constant warfare against the insects. However, it is not safe to depend en tirely upon these favorable conditions. The only way to insure a good crop of first-class fruit is to spray the trees with those insecticides and fungicides which are known to be effective. The spray mixtures and seasons vary in dif ferent localties, so the amateur will do well to be guided by successful fruit growers in his vicinity. Most seed and poultry supply stores carry spray mix tures in stock, and can supply full direc tions tor applying them. If a piece of land can be conveniently fenced in for the exclusive use of small chicks, this may well be set out in strawberries. The chicks, even when quite young, will pick and spoil some of the ripening fruit; but their presence in the patch goes far toward Insuring a good crop of berries. They spend their time searching among the plants for in sect life, and the good they accomplish in this way more than offsets the dam age they do the bstffies. The value of chicks as Insect destroy ers in the -patch is being recognized by commercial growers of strawberries in sections where this crop is an important one. A gentleman who annually grows many acres of these berries In southern Delaware recently told the writer that he has become convinced that the best way to fight the troublesome strawberry weevil is to locate small flocks of chicks in various parts of the field and let them range at will. At that time he was pre paring to hatch several! hundred chicks for this purpose. Over 800,000 Women Cast Votes in Illinois CHICAGO, Nov. 10.—Women of Illi nois cast a total vote last Tuesday of much more than 800,000. Figures bused on returns from 1,573 precincts out of 2,973 outside of Cook county indicated that 505,410 down state women voted. The unofficial count of Cook county shows a total women’s vote of 316,964 with only the two major parties considered. Os the downstate women Hughes had 56.8 per cent and Wilson 43.2 per cent in precincts tabulated. Cook county complete showed a percentage of 53.7 for Hughes and 46.3 for Wilson. One mistake many women make in buying coffee You know how hard it is to get a coffee which really satisfies you. You know how seldom you can find a coffee which has the same fine taste and strength every morning I It can be done. You can do it if, when you buy coffee, you are careful not to make the mistakes so many women make. Read the ex periences below —you yourself have undoubtedly had one or both of them. < Beware of loose coffee Are you buying coffee which you get loose, coffee which hasn't been protected by a sealed package ? Are you afraid that it isn’t clear ? Has it lost its aroma? Are you often disappointed in its strength ? ‘ It isn’t the grocer’s fault. With loose coffee he can’t be sure that it is the samejcind he got before. You always run the risk of getting different coffee every time you buy. And even if the coffee itself were the same, it can’t be kept “loose” without losing its strength and flavor. In packages—protected! You can do away with every one of these disappointments by ordering the coffee which over one million other families drink. Ar buckles’ Coffee is such good coffee that way back in the sixties, when all other coffees on the market were loose and unprotected, Arbuckle Bros, protected theirs in sealed packages. This sealed package keeps the coffee’s strength, and guards it from moisture and store odors. Most important of all, it makes it easy for you to be sure that you are getting the same good coffee every time you buy. The second mistake women make Old coffee with new names Are you continually being offered the same old coffee under new names ? Under all sorts of new blends ? Did you ever stop to think of the hundreds of coffees which come and go on the market? And that all of these have tried to turn women away from Arbuckles’ Coffee ? Arbuckles’ is the coffee which has gone right out, always under its own name, never disguised, and held its users simply on the wonderfal value it gave. You know what good value a coffee must be to do this against the competition of all the other coffees America! ' Used in a million homes * Settle, for all time, your coffee problem, by giviag your family the only coffee which over a million families have proved to have the real coffee taste they want. When you get Arbuckles’ Coffee you get an entirely dif ferent coffee. No other coffee goes through the same process —in no other coffee can you get the same good flavor.
