Entered at the Poet Of flee at Richmond. Indiana, as Be ' ond Class Mall Matter. 7 Qieckmg New Year's Alcoholism. New3 dispatches from Chicago, New, York and other large cities indicate that municipal and police authorities will enforce the : Sunday closing rule and will put a stop to the wild orgies that have made New Year's eve a night of highlights, hilarity and high-balls. December 31 falls on Sunday and with watchful mayors guarding the lid, few men bent on violating the law will be able to sell the stuff to revelers and night owls. We are approaching e pretty safe and sane New Year's eve, it geems to us. In New York the hotel men have decided to postpone the celebration of New Year until Monday night. There will be little consolation in the change and little "change" in the consolation.

The Worth of a Thing. "When a work raises your soul and inspires you with noble and brave sentiments, it is good, and? done by the V hand of -a workman." La Bruyere.) This holds true of the man working at the bench and of the artist at the easel.

Creating Energy. . We complain some times that we have lost interest in our work and that we have lost pep. The cure can be found in a day spent away from our accustomed haunts, meandering along, the creeks, through woods, or strolling through some part of the city we have not visited before. The walk will create a new surrounding atmosphere and drive us to' work with new zeal and energy.

Shoes at $30 a Pair. Shoes at $30 a pair were predicted at the annual meeting of the shoe and leather men in Boston. An explanation of the increase in this necessity made later tells us that $30 shoes are the ones made of fancy leather and containing material not used in the kind of shoes the common man wears. We are glad that clod-hoppers will tay at the present price of $1 more than we had to pay for them a year ago.

Europe's Suicide. - The Independent editorially says: "The third summer campaign is over and the Great War settled down into its third winter with no issue determined and no end in sight: All the belligerents are making their preparations for a fourth year, but with no assurance that there will not be a fifth to follow. The questions involved in the war have long ago been overshadowed by the war itself. There is only, one live question and that is when and how the war may be stopped. We no longer talk of which will win in the war because we know that all have lost. No matter how it comes out there can be no victor, for all were vanquished long ago. The accumulated wealth of centuries has been swept away as by a tornado and the labor of the future has been mortgaged so the coming generations will be born to an inheritance of poverty.. No conceivable indemnities or accessions of territory can possibly compensate either side for the destruction of property, and Europe can never recover from the loss of ten millions of her ablest men. - . In the face of such unparalleled devastation it is absurd and wicked to talk of net gains and ultimate advantages. Such talk reduced to concrete terms means that a man who has come out of it safe goes ta a widow, whose husband and sons have been killed' and says: 'I'm sorry for you personally, but on the whole the war has been a good thing. I feel quite a spiritual uplift in myself and my employees work much harder.' Shall he be allowed to say-to a blinded soldier: 'Lucky thing this war iwas. ; I can see much more clearly than before?' The survivors might at least have the decency not to insult the dead and wounded by talking of how the war has benefited them. . ." ; , , It is' not true that America is rejoicing at the sight of the self-immolation of Europe. The prices of munition stocks may go up whenever one Side or the other rejects our overtures for peace, but the hearts of the American people go down. The United- States is""not a gainer by the war. She is merely less of a sufferer. The future is full of foreboding, for we are bound to ask ourselves, Can America survive if European civilization is destroyed? All Europe is our Fatherland, not any one nation of it. We have drawn our life from every land and each one has contributed some element to our commonweal. We cannot rejoice wholeheartedly in any victory, for it means to us a blow to some country to which we owe a debt of gratitude for something, for help in times of danger "past, for political institutions, for religious forms, for language or laws, for books or music, for art or science, for the ideals, inspiration, influences and counsel that have enabled this new nation to rival the old. To us Americans it seems that our Mother Europe is committing hara-kiri before our very eyes, driving the

sword deeper into her vitals as the blood pours forth in red rivers and we stand helpless by, for she will not permit us to stanch her wounds or take away her weapon."
