Well tho chance to help tho Salva tion Army has now come, for tho United War Work drive starts nrxt (Monday, IN'ovembcr 1 1 til, and the Salvation Army Is one of the seven worthy organizations which is to benefit by that drive. In fact if this drive should fail, the Salvation Army with Its splendid record and its high capacity for reconstruction service, 'would have to discontinue its foreign relief and its devoted and sa'if-sacrl-'ficing members would be forved to concludo that what they had done ;was not appreciated by the people over here. You don't want the Salvation Army lassie to stop handing out hot coffee and doughnuts do you, for even after peace has been signed, thousands of Yanks will be on for eign soil and more in no?d of good American grub and good American emiles than ever before. !

Tlie recent food riots in Japan are dangerous :;ympto:ni; of a widening social cleav. aga in tho opinio of Toshio Fuji wara, a leading lusiness man of Tokio and an authority on social questions. He contrasts the condl t ions under which tho working Iuhs of Japan live vifh tlie ononiiou:? pro fits ol' great enterpiisos, and sees in tho ostentation of tho countless war millionaires a social irritant which is eausiiifC tlio tlu'orifn of western agitators to work on tho minds of the Japaiifso wajiw earners. .Mr. Fujiwara thinks that Japanese skilled workmen hae already acquir ed the ideas of the working people of western countries. Ho adds: "These ideas, unfortunately mostly iu a wrong sense, are steadily work in?; upon tho minds of our working people, especially those in big cities like Tokio, Osaka, etc. lio continue?: "Leaders of tho nation are therefore slronKly urcd to adopt soma mea sures for relief of tho general dis content so that disaster may be avoided. Should this Rcneral discon tent of tho working class be loft without remedy, wo may have more serious outbursts and those may bring about a catastrophe to the em pire.''

After many occasions when hope has been deferred and of hitter dis appointment. France knows nt last that triumph has come nnd gives rein to its unreserved joy. The conviction Is universal that whether the Ger man delegation ;-igiis articles of ca pitulation or nor. Germany Is beaten. Tho a'dad advance, particularly tho exploit of the Americans in en tering Sedan, a name which thrills every Frjii'h heart, kIiow.s clearly that continuation of hostilities by Germany can lead only to a military debacle in tho nar future.

Unlike Topsy Swift & Company Has Not "Jest Growed" Swift & Company, in fifty years cf well ordered growth, has becomo one of tho great national services because it has .learned to do something for the American people which they needed to have clone for them, in the way in which they preferred to have it done. It has met each successive demand, in the changing conditions of national life, by getting good meat to increasing millions effectively, efficiently, economically, and expeditiously. Tlie Swift & Company packing plants, refrigerator cars, car routes, branch houses, organization, and person nel of today arc the practical solutions, born of practical experience, to tho food problems of a half a century. Because of all cf thess elements working in cor relation and unison, Swift & Company is able to supply more and better meat to more peoplo than would have been possible otherwise, at a net profit per pound cf rnsat so low (a fraction of c. cent) that the consumer pries is practically unaffected. Strip away any portion of thi3 vast, smooth-running human machine, and you make a large part of the meat supply uncertain, lose the benefit of half a century of fruitful experience, and scatter the intelligent energies of men who havo devoted a lifo work toward meeting the needs of a nation in ono vital field. .
