Disease Due to Dietetlo Errors.
I have come to the conclusion that
more than half the disease which em
bitters life Is due to avoidable errors
In diet . . , and that more mischief, in
the form of actual dlsense, of impaired
Igor, and of shortened life, accrues to
' civilized man from erroneous habits of
eating than from the habitual use of
alcoholic drink, considerable as I know
that evil to be. Sir Henry Thomp

The organization of a Coiiiiuunity
Chorus became a fact last ulghl
whon a majority of the monibors
of tho late Fourth of July Chorus
met in the Presbyterian Church and
effected an organization.
The permanent officers- chosen
were:; !
- Dr. E. P. Mossman, President.
Mrs.- A, h. Richardson, Vice-President,.
.; ' '.i '. ..
"Jacob H. Traynor, Secretary.
F. L. Meyers, Treasurer. '
It was announced that it was the
intention to provide the most com
petent choral director , in Eastern
Oregon to direct the work of this
organization and to. this end .nego
tiations had been under way to se
cure Prof. h. D. Edwards of Daker
who had consented to come to La
Grande next Monday. Pror. , Ed
wards' will meet with the entire
Chorus on that evening at 7:30
cloclt In. the Presbyterian Church
in response to . the Invitation
thru the press for all music lovers
and singers to bo present and join
the Chorus there was a good re
sponse and it Is expected that by j
uuAi munuuy nigui a larger milliner
will take advantage of onllstlng.
Tho success or this organization
-will mean much not only to tho
members who will be directly ben
efited, but the city as well. It is.
intended as a source of high-class
ontortalnment In a musical and
possibly operatic way, la tor on. for
tho people of this city-and vicinity.
, A committee will bo designated
to canvass for' new members as it
is hoped the membership will ap
proximate 200 voices when fully .en
listed. . Those who would like to
bo numbered In this chorus should
not hesitate to gel In touch with
.Its officers or be present next Mon3
day night In order that It may be
come what its name Indicates, a
"Commimlty Chorus."
In addition to the mcunbors , of
the t chorus, who are expected to
solicit for new members, a Bneclal
committee for this purpose was ap
pointed by tho president. The ape
clal committee Includes: Mrs. Hay
W. Logan, Martha SchnMeld, Mrs.
C.--A. Nlchaolds, W. F. Landrum
and J. H. Trayner. , '
The committee which so successfully
fffmteH tho Iwrmnnnnt nrmtn'nuiinn !
of the Community chorus- was J. . H.
Traynor, Mrs. Richardson, Mr. Dixon,
Dr. Roe and Mrs. Corbett.
There cannot be too much said of
the untiring and ceaseless work, day ;
and night, done by Mrs. Richardson in
the past in the way of training and
keeping the interest in the chorus
work of the different members and it
is this same spirit that will lead the
new organization into the realms of
grand opera singing before the close
of the season.

Gareissen made the following ox.
pianuiory sum-muni.;
"Our sons belonged to-a'peace-
loving age. They had to leave loved
ones, drop prospects of careers, and
prepare for the most infernal war
the world has ever known. They have
done this without complaint, with a
determination to out forth the best
and highest within them. American
mothers, no matter how their hearts
may bleed, must rise to the leading
of their sons. And if those idolized
sons fall, still they must rise, keep
ing ever before them their sons who
have gone up and up. In other
words, they must be worthy of be
ing mothers of the boys of today." -

indication (r Absolute Mill-
tury DeKpotlsm. ,
AMSTERDAM, July 11. (Dy
United Press.) Germany has . an
nounced positively that Admiral
von Hint ic replaces von Kuclhmann
as Foreign Secretary.
Commenting on the change In the
Gorman foreign office,' J. W.; T.
Mason, United PreBs war expert,
says:. .;. ;,; 1 . '.--'
If reports of von Kuehlmann'a
resignation as Gornrun foreign min
ister prove to be true, ho will have
been sacrificed as a final challenge
by tho kaiser and his, militarists to
America. ;. .
The -only Influences ' powerful
enough to overthrow- von Kuehl-
mann would be a united demand by
von Hlndendorff and von Luden
dorff that he bo disciplined for de
claring peace could not bo won on
the battlefield. Militarism cannot
survive the teaching -of this doc
trine In Germany.' So, If the for
eign minister has been thrown ov
erboard, it is because von Hluden-
burg, " von ' Ludendorff and the
Kaiser have decided to attempt to
savo their autocratic powers by de
fying America on the ficjd of bat
tle. '.'; ' '; ' ;''' ' .;;',' ;-,' :'' ' -
.Military Dictatorship Threatens.
Thp fall of von Kuohlmann wfil
mark tho first of the throe f iua;
stages in the .Hohonzollern conspir
acy to Impose, mediaeval rule upon
civilization. The next will be .tho
creation of a military dictatorship
as tho governing, force-In Germany.
When that has ' railed, there will
como a despairing effort to negoti
ate a compromising poaco. If the
allies still maintain a rosoluto front
then militarism will luvo run its
full course, and will either be over,
thrown or made harniless.
Thero may be an Interruption to
this program through a sudden re
volt In Autvtrla-Hungary or bcacus'u
of a sudden realization by tho Ger
man people of. the fact that they
aro bolng lod to destruction. If; it out to you; or what I prcrer to
neither of those possible dcvoliip.jdo Is, to have you come In hero

May 1ol To Full For Kaiser,
. Von Kiiehlmann declared In tho
riilrliHtair that the kaiser could not.
rule Europe. Tho kaiser certainly"!
Icannot pursue -that fanatical nt-:
tempt at suicide while, von nuein-;
mann remains fofclgn minister.
Even tho stubborn, narrow mind of j
the Germans would see the fatal .
Inconsistency of this course. If,;
therefore, tho Kaiser still thlnksj
ho has been chosen by "Gott" toj
control Europe's dostinles, von j
Kiiehlmann must retire. Mogolo-
maniacs who go Into the market
place, to prato or their Intimacy j
with "Oott" have always been mak-,
ers or mad decisions. This tlmo
the Kaiser's decision may lead to
his own Imperial distinction. . j
