THANKSGIVING.
Terre Haute's contribution to the estitute Belgians closed last evening, he Bplendld total reflects great credit fn the generous citizens here and the ,^,ery substantial charity will be a ^god-send to a large number of people. The Tribupe wishes to take this occasion to express its gratitude for the ,Ane co-operation which citizens gave to the plan and, while there are no figures available, it is likely that the jflnal count will show Terre Haute high JLh the roll of honor for per capita donations. The need of the Belgians is eat. The country has suffered a lamity without precedent in the orld's history. If people generally ve done as admirably as have the pie of this section the crisis has
§voked the world's greatest
arity. Those who participated will jtave a better Thanksgiving therefor.
TIME FOR SANITY.
The periodical known as "The urth Estate," which is edited for by journalists, calls attention to fact that newspapers editing and inting the war news in a construce, proportionate and non-sensa-nal way have held their adVertiswhen journals with other methof news display and other Ideals their public duty have lost custom-
In o&er tv($rds preachers of chaos, iters of feat, prophets^of gloOm, have their logical discipline. Their readamong business men seem to have itftken them at their word, and apparfeiitly there are none to comfort them.
If the lesson thus taught so early the history of the war is taken to rt by the sensational journalists effect will be wholesome, and posly it may have an influence beyond period of the war. An editorial and ws policy that is not constructive, ssuring, and emphatic in its prefer,ce for the normal word and deed nnot, as we see it, develop in either Naders or advertisers any affection or Loyalty that in turn may become a •urnal's best asset. fAdvertisers, whose return on their vestment in newspaper space must Impend on the good will and trust of ders, not only in their veracity, but in the soundness of society, are SStOt, we believe, likely to invest steadily §«rtth either "yellow" or "red" journals, does not pay, putting it on no higher asts than that. war, involving ten or more na-

millions of persons, makes legitimate demands on a newspaper's space which must be heeded but even at such a time it is best to see things in their true proportions.
REAL REFORM.
The newspapers are the forces that can drive vice from American cities, and will do so when readers arid subscribers insist upon it, declared Arthur Capper, editor of the Topeka Capital an go no el of an as in a a dress to the international purity congress. "The newspaper is peculiarly sensitive and responsive to enlightened public opinion," said Mr. Capper. "Responsibility for the elevation of the public standard of morals rests with the newspapers, which are directly responsible for the education of the individual in the truth about public affairs."
It was in the power of the newspapers of any city, he asserted, to drlv* vice out of their city by a conscientious campaign of publicity. Newspapers which- undertook to exploit bad conditions merely from sensationalism, to sell papers, he said, would accomplish little good. Laws are enforced only after the public is aroused to their necessity."
BE SURE YOU'RE RIGHT.
Chips on the shoulders for nations are dangerous things. Before the jingos got into full action to blame the navy for not blowing to smithereens the Turkish fort which dared "fire" on an American launch along come the real facts in the case and the conclusion is that an admirable calm on the part of the navy saived this nation a bad situation.
Firing guns Is a fort's sole way of talking. The Tennessee's launch, coursing gayly into the Smyrna harbor, had to be stopped, and there was need of extreme haste. The gun spoke its command, and the launch stopped.
The Turks, aping their betters, had planted mines here and there In the bay. The Tennessee's launch was very likely to find one of these. The resulting blow-up would have caused a momentary disturbance of the bay, and large turmoil in the United States. It was up to the Turk commander to do something in the way of prevention, and the shot was .fired which has been heard half way around the world. To establish his friendliness the suajve Moslem in the fort hastended to offer the American launching party the use of his automobile for aipi vovfterlaod trip to Smyrna. On the whole, he seems to have heen a rather admirable Ottoman gentleman.
So the haze and smoke is cleared away, and this little "international incident" assumes its proper unimportance. No one has been barking or making faces at the United States.
THE EVIL IN ATHLETICS.
A summary of the foot ball season published in the sporting department of the Tribune Monday showed that thirteen youths have been killed in foot ball games this season. Last year there were twelve killed, the year before, twenty and this average was excelled in 1909 when thirty boys met death in the game.
The competitive athletics of our colleges and universities often harbor unsuspected dangers in that they encourage overdoing on the part of the participants. No one would deny that systematic and even strenuous exercise may epcert a most wholesome effect on the human organism. But the win-at-any-cost exertion, taxing vital organs to the very limit of their endurance, exceeding the factor of safety in

physiologic functions, and sometimes carried to the breaking strain, represents a sort of unjustifiable self-sac-rifice that may properly be made for one's country but is never called for to uphold the glory of one's college. The sooner it is realized that there are better teSts of manliness than the ability to endure a four-mile race in the college bijat or to complete the football season in spite of acquired injuries, the more wholesome will American college I life become.
Unfortunately, there is a widely manifested tendency for the pupil of the high school to ape the performances of his older brother in the college. This is shown in the Introduction of Greek letter societies and social functions into the secondary schools, tending to counterbalance some of their wholesoirie features of social intercourse with the snobbery of exclusiveness and the deteriorating influence of late hours and tiring distractions. Even more baneful, however, 1b the growing custom of allowing the same sort of intense competitive sports In the high school that are the cause of complaint in respect to their dangers to the older college student.
Says The Journal of the American Medical Association in this same connection, we are glad to note a spirit of protest in various parts of the United States against "all the forces, social ahd athlettffc, w*hich tend to deteriorate the American boy (or girl) at the adolescent age of the high school period. Onp health officer1 has recently made a public announcement that proper exercise in a well-equipped gym, under the guidance of a trained instructor, is good for any one, but that competitive athletics, requiring most strenuous exertion, long and tedious training and self-denial, is positively bad for any one before full development, and that all such overacts tend to impair the keenness of the mind and Interfere with school work proper, as well as to injure the body.

Good and evil balance in the scales oday, according to the reading of the tars. While Mercury is in a place strongly beneflc in its influence, Mars rules stubbornly for evil. Neptune Is slightly adverse and Jupiter rather favorable.
Editors, publishers and advertisors should benefit" while this configuration lasts. The signs indicate a revival of interest in books and a change in methods of obtaining publicity.
Young persons are believed to be especially fortunate when Mercury rules. Astrologers decls^fe that the future will give them greater opportunities than have been enjoyed by any generation. The year in the colleges will be most extraordinary in good influencs, It is prognosticated.
Persons whose birthdate it is should avoid litigation and quarrels with business associates. Men will have an active year in the commercial world.
Children born on this day probably will be exceedingly bright, but quicktempered. Boys may be headstrong, fond of pleasure, and exceedingly active. Girls will be. fortunate. These subjects of Sagittarius have Jupiter as their principal ruling planet.

A Bad, Stomach

Ro.oke, 1612 W. Erie St.,, Chicago, Ills., a professional nurse, writes: "Peruna was a wonderful benefit to me. I suffered with catarrh the stomach in a very bad form, a without great is stomach became sour, I had gas, and would belch up my food. My In on a a a I
could not sleep without waking a dozen times in the night, often with intense pains. My "breath was very bad. I used many remedies supposed to be good, but got no relief until after I had used Peruna. Then my recovery began, and while it was slow It was sure. I am therefore more than pleased to recommend Peruna for all catarrhal difficulties, as I am sure that it will cure them."
LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE.
Donations to the Belgians. Editor of Tribune:—I should like to ask the one who 'believed in charity at home before abroad if he has ever stopped to consider that the great store of blessings the good I/ord has for us cannot be exhausted? He suys "Eye hath not seen, ear hath not heard, it has not entered into the heart of man, the good things that He has in store for them that love Him.",
Then why not give to the thousands of starving Belgians and give it cheerfully? When the poor of our own country ask for bread give to them likewise, but whatsoever you do, do it to the glory of God. He haa said, "I will multiply my blessings." This is the way to become acquainted with the Lord. He has said "I will say In that day, depart from Me, 1 never knew you. I was hungry and ye fed Me not, naked and ye clothed Me not, sick and ye visited Me not, a stranger and. ye took Me not in."
I would say to Mr. Charity at Home reaJ the third chapter of I John, verse 17. then let us give and not give grudgingly. A gift to the poor is a lean to the Lord. Let us put our means out and get the big interest. The Lord promised us an hundredfold while we live and life everlasting in the world to come. Paul said "Tho I give all my goods to feed the poor, and my body to be burned, if I have r.ot charity I become as sounding brass or a tinkling symbol."
If we give grudgingly or because others give we hear a few sweet sounding words of praise from our near friends or a great lot of loud talk like unto one pounding on the old brass bell.
I should like to hear from Charity at Home again. If I have made mistakes give' me the scripture proof. Yours fer success from one who reads the "tribune at Riley,'Ind. X. Y-f Z.
Early Shopping.
Editor of The Tribune: Your paper has shown such generous sympathy with the movement in favor of eariy Christmas shopping that I trust you will give space to a further appeal, the response appearing less prompt and general than might have been hoped. Self-interest alone should urge the shoppers, chiefly women, to avoid the discomfort and waste of time which is the result of delaying Christmas purchases till the middle of December, but the women of unselfish instincts will also consider that buying now will help to retain in their positions hundreds of saleswomen who, by the law of supply and demand, would inevitably be discharged when customers are few, and who are dependent on their earnings for any share in the Christmas joys.
The managers of some of the large department stores stated that early shopping would lead to the retention of hundreds of saleswomen. Let us do our part towards securing a "sane Christmas." MRS. H. L. C.
