Sweet A Caravan of Motor Trucks For Remembrance. On July 7 there started from the. White llfiu.se a procession of motor trurk.s. Their finul destination is Nun Francisco. These are the IrucVs which look the place to n very great extent, of the sacred army mule in huuliiiK supplies and munitions in this, country and abroad during the war. 'Hie war department is responsible for the trip, the main object of which is to arouse national interest in n ser ies of ''Roads of ltomembrnnoe," roads stretching away across the country, dedicated to the remembrance of the boys who drove the trucks in the war, and their comrades. The Idea of memorial roads is not new, but now It ia proposed by the war department that the route fol lowed by the trucks shall be the line of the road. The forestry department is ut'Kinfr that the roads be lined with trees, and ' this Is the iroapol which will be preached as the caravan winds its way westward. Cheer the trucks ns they pass by, for they made history! And let each atato build Its rnuds and plant Its tiees. No nobler tic could join thu past and future. sijrns of losing .his control of Qdi forma r-itu'.s, and or the state as io whole. Hut there js unquestionably n, menace th-ro,.of which this particula bit of evidence is rtiore colivlhcinc; than' usual to the rest of the country. It mitfbt be well for the government to look into the matter, and a;;lt .Japan whether she considers that she is keep ing the letter or the spirit of thai ''Kentlefjien'H a'eement."

The House bill for the enforremcn1 of war time prohibition and the fed eral prohibition amendment is drastic, especially in its insHtence that licUor contninine; more than one-half of one per cent is intoxicating. Hut tli:rc is one alrnncu exception made from which tllil.ity souls, particularly in the rural sections, may derive solace. Cider is excepted. Not sweet eider, but hard cider. This, as too many men know to their com, is a potent beverage, whose effects, are some times disastrous beyond what miht be expected from its alcoholic con lent. And that content, us laboratory inquiries have established, is not a' ufi insignificant. Oeptu-trnont of Agriculture expert'! testify that fermented eider contains 8 to 10 per cent alcohol, which i' twice' as much as there used to be in beer. Nevertheless conprress in it wisdom decrees that beer' is deadly and cider is harmless. It is probably futile to inquire too closely into the operations of the con Ki-c;i:donal mind on Ibis matter. Per haps the "drys" were fearful of mak intf the law too drastic, anil chose to create, n sort of safety-valve to easo the "wot" pressure anil avoid retalia tions. Or perhaps the rongressniev furred the farmer vote. At any rate, the exception stands, unless the senate rules it out. And thus cider steps into a new and hon ored place- or ili.-.honoied, if you pre for in tire list of American drinks. Henceforth it. is to be the only bever age obtainable that1 is capable of in -ducing -not intoxication, of course, congress has settled thatbut such transient exhilaration as people have, been woirt to obtain from alcohol. It needs no prophet to foretell n big demand for cider and an cage' market for every cider-apple produced Those apples will not lie left rotting on the ground next fall.
