experiences of the last w ar when vast«* and duplication caused
some rather stringent regulations to he ¡»sued, which brought
some hardships and some sacrifices, people are reluctant to re-
spond with the expect«! enthusiasm lin k 's an acute emergency
exists. Actual war and the preparation <-f « a r always brings
a b m t confusion, duplication of effort and waste and the pr« sent
effort to rearm has been no exception.
One day we hear a statem ent made and t i e n»xt day the
same statem n t contradicted. The existing s ■areity. or the ap
parent scarcity, of many m aterials today never entered the pic
tu re a few mouths back. A long range plaoni ¡g program has
been consciously absent. But planning ahead is necessary in
times of stress as well as in times of peace. Absi tee of it brings
about m aladjustm ents and the n su lta .it difficult thins.
SILEN T SOLDIERS.
•iThe four horsemen have ridden hard this year. T iny have
brought W ar. Famine. Pestilence, and Death to a large part ot
the world. It w ill take r r t ry last ounce of strength ami know l
edge jmsses-. d by m ankind to halt their sweeping horror. Before
many weeks pass, the great annual Christm as Seal campaign
will be on in earnest. The funds from these little seals are used
to fight one of the most powerful of the horsem en's allies—Tu-
bereulosis.
Through the ages tuberculosis has been known as the great
white plague. For centuries it was the num ber 1 killer. In tin o s
of distress it literally destroyed whole populatnuis. The fa t
that this is not true today is due solely to tin achí» vements re
sulting from the continuous sncrilie« s of medical s ¡e litis ts
C. L. Newcomb, Christm as Seal sale * ¡rector for the National
Tuberculosis Association recently sa id : ' In the 34 years of
Christm as Seal sales, the tub« i cub sis death rate lies been cut
by three-fourths, but the diseas*» last year took over l.(MH) more
American lives than were killed o r died from wuunds in the
American Expeditionary Fore in the first W orld W a r."

significance this year on the cheery seals adorning his gr«*< ting
cards. They are silent soldieis in a gigantic battle, a crucial

Mennonite Journeys by Buggy
Adhering to the belief of his peo

Aaron S. M artin, young Menuonite
farm er, set out w ith horse and bug
gy on a 100-mile trip from Ephrata,
Pa., to Selinsgrove, to accept a job.
