agents for the British government, to divert the flow of gold from Canada to the Philadelphia mint. . , There are about 40,000 bars of. gold piled in twenty-two tiers. About $110,000,000 of the

gold stored there has been shipped from Canada since the current movement started two months ago. France and England have contributed the greater portion of the gold, but the supposition

is that a part of it came from Russia.

Motor Crazy on Sunday Hundreds of persons are perfectly sane residents of this city and county six days in the week; on Sunday they are insane with the speed ; mania. Multiply this observation by thousands I of cities and towns in Indiana and the United States and you will have an appalling picture of the excesses of joy-riders and other abusers of ' tnTmotor sport. The public highways become lanes of death and destruction on Sunday. Motorists who are

! law abiding, conservative and considerate citizens ! on other days, become reckless pilots of engines ; of destruction on Sunday. They jeopardize the t lives and limbs of the occupants of their cars, i menace pedestrians, and are a source of fear to I the motorist who is trying to enjoy the privilege

' of the highways without resorting to reckless

ness or indulrincr in speed delirium. It is to be

' regretted that the grim lists printed on Mondays of autoists who have gone to their, deaths makes

no impression on the callous consciences of these offenders.

$45.0,000,000 in Gold More gold is stored in one spot in the United States today than at any place in the world. The Sub-Treasury and the Assay Office in New York are the storage places of $455,000,000 gold in coins and bars. So crowded have these places become with the influx of gold from the Allies that officials have requested J. P. Morgan & Co.,

Meat Production and the Demand

Under thi3 caption the Department of Agri

culture discusses one factor that enters into the

high cost of living as follows :

"That meat production has not kept pace

with the increase in population and that its failure to do so, combined with increased cost of production and diminished purchasing power of the money unit, has contributed to higher prices not only in the United States, but all over the world is stated in Part I of the exhaustive report on the meat situation in the preparation of which specialists of the U. S. Department of Agriculture have been engaged for some time. This country, it is said, is participating in a world-wide movement and it is not expected that the situation will undergo any radical change in the immediate future. On the other hand, it is believed that there will be a gradual growth and expansion in the world's production of beef, mutton and pork which may or may not equal the rate of increase

of the meat-eating population. "In America this gradual expansion appears

to have begun already. Between 1907 and 1913 there was a marked decline in the number of cattle in the country, but in the last two years this has not only stopped but has given way to a perceptible increase. The estimated number on farms and ranges on January 1, 1916, 61,441,000, is, however, still much below the corresponding figure for 1907, 72,534,000. With the exception of temporary checks due to losses from hog cholera, there has been in recent years a persistent increase in the production of swine. On January 1, 1916, the number in the country was estimated at 68,000,000 as compared with 58,200,000 in April, 1910. On the other hand, the number of sheep declined during this period from 52,500,000 in 1910 to 49,200,000 in 1916. As the decrease, however,, is not sufficient to offset the increase in cattle and swine, it may be said that the total production of meat in the United States is increasing but that this increase is not yet proportionate to the growth in population."

The Forum

Articles contributed for this column must not 1 in excess of four hundred wcrds. The identity of all contrivers must be known to the editor. Articles will be printed in the order received.

On Independence Day we hoist the flag and salute it with varied fireworks because we are patriotic and want to cultivate and inspire a deeper patriotism and love of our country, 'Tig the spirit within, making outward manifestation in our celebration. : Yet many of the most patriotic are not shouting, but celebrate in the truer, higher sense, thanking. God: for our nation and the great history and principles is wonderful and precious. We meditate: That our nation was founded upon the right to worship God in love and liberty; that we had nothing

to ao witn our being born here with all our heritage. We think what might have been our lot and thank God for our birthright in the one land of the free. We want to do all we can to keep and advance our nation in the paths of righteousness. Preparedness is in the integrity of the individual and not in the biggest supply of death dealing instruments. All history proves this. And when we lose our faith in God, we pin our faith in mili

tarism and our doom is sure. "Righteousness exalteth a nation but sin is a reproach to any people." Righteousness and integrity are preparedness that made and will safeguard this nation. The cigaret defeated Jeffries in shame and not the nearn Johnson

This is how the mighty are fallen. Inflating the mind with Satan's nectar and sipping hell fire smoke 'and brew puts the devil inside and we are captives. Christ alone leads captivity captive. We must maintain our integrity. Preparedness means strong character. A chain is no stronger than its weakest link so with each of us. The chair of character has three parts

body, world end, mind and heavenly anchor, soul. Let all United States of America stand in purity to lead the warring nations to the One that brought peace and good will to men. Prepare to consistently represent the Prince of Peace. ALVIN M. THREEWITS.

with a record of 2:13Vi. Mr. Clark was compelled to give up driving on account of rheumatism, and it will be a surprise to many to know that he has fully recovered. He said: "I believe I know what It Is to suffer from rheumatism. I was so bad that for weeks I was unable to turn in bed and had to have some one assist me to dress. It was impossible to get my hands to my head and particularly painful in the morning. "There was at first a slight numbnes of my fingers and then the pain extended to my arms, shoulders and back. It continued to grow worse and finally involved my legs. My hands were weak and I was unable to lift even small objects, as the strength seemed to have left me entirely. "Reading so much about Var-ne-sis and what it had done for others, I decided to try it, with the result that gradually the pain left me, my strength returned and today I consider myself a well man. "I have recommended Var-ne-sis to a number of friends suffering from this trouble and they have reported
