Thk Krupp tire at Hssen bear all the characteristics of an "in side job." Thk only men the Bolsheviki will fight are those who are trying to restore order. Pekhaps the Grand Duke Nich olas is the "Man on Horseback" that Russia needs. A man seldom shoots above the mark at which he aims. So lets aim high in IMKS. Mk Wilson's talk and Ciiionci Mouse's silence seems equally elo quent to the allies. Presidknt Wilson; is like the lightning. He never has to stnki the same spot tw ice. Hi 'Ssi a is an ideal place for rad icals in everyday Soap is selling at fifteen rubles a pound. "We can't and won't aid milita rism," says Trotky. K.xcept bv mak'niji peac; vs u'n it. The coal shortage served one purpose, anyhow. It made New York go to bed early. TROTKY talks very much as it he foresees the necessity of hndir g an alibi at an early date. It is consoling to remember how little pork has been lost by warm weather during December. One cannot but suspect that the have been having a county-to-couniy oratorical tour in Russia. What ihe British did not do u Jerusalem perhaps excites the con tempt of the German high com mand. HALIFAX is only asking the Do minion ol Canada to help her, bui her cause appeals to the whole world. The Kaiser wants Turkey to remain "intad" until Germany can get a chance to take what she wishes of it. Switzerland again asserts she is neutral. She has io do this every now and then or the allies might forget it. JAPAN is acting very much like Ihe bystander who hopes both sides of a scrap will be too exhausted to carry olt ihe spoils. When ihe kaiser pulicd the trig ger in 1914, he did not know the kick of the gun was going io put auctocracy out of business. That Alabama actress w ho ask ed for a divorce on the grounds that her marriage was a joke, evi dently is not a comedienne. ALTHOUGH ihe war has been in progress since April 6, Germa ny has not captured a fool of Ari zona, New Mexico or Texas. RUSSIA might take a lesson from Utile Portugal, who wages war strenuously and faithfully on two continents while pulling off a nice little revolution it home. m 1 1 i r-purti-il i!i ti the I U UltlP'I'ili L lHl!

Whereas, Our Heavenly Father has called into the peaceful rest of Paradise to await the morning of the Resurrection the soul of our sister, Kva Davis, and Whereas, Her example while living, was worthy of emulation and an inspiration io those who knew her, and Whereas, She rendered valuable services to the Parish during a pe riod of many years, therefore, be it resolved, by the Woman's Aux iliary of Grace Church: 1st. That we bow in humble submission to the Will of Hun who knoweih best and doeth all things well. 2nd. That we give thanks to Hun for the noble example of His servant, who, in her daily life, was a consistent Christian. Her devo tion to the Master, through His Church, was beautiful and fur nished an example which was in spiring. Both Rector and congre gation received inspiration to see her always in her accustomed place at church, and the practical service w hich she rendered to the Parish is incalculable. Faithful unto death she can claim her re ward. ,rd. That as moved amongsus in daily hie and in our meetings, she had a kind word, a w illing ser vice, and and appreciation of her friend wnieh endeared her to us. We miss her, and her place shall be hard to fill. Though departed this hie she still lives, and in the Communion of Saints we are not far apart. "O I, lest communion, fellowship divine. We let-lily nil ui;le, tliey in ylory fthine Vet all are one in l liee.t'or all areTlnne." 4th. That a copy of these reso lutions be spread on the minutes of our branch of the Woman's Auxiliary; a copy sent to the Car olina Churchman; a copy to the Roanoke News, and a copy sent to her relatives.

Roanoke Rapids Herald. SOLDIER AND SAILOR INSURANCE, To the man w ho has gone to the colors the I nitcd Slates Govern ment offers the safest, the most liberal, and the cheapest insurance on the face of the earth. Approximately .H)0,000 men have accepted ihe Government's offer, applying tor insurance ol about two and three quarter billions of dollars. The average amount applied for per man is more than $S,G00, which is very close to the $10,000 maximum provided for by the law. This insurance total, great as it is, should be only a beginning. Every person in the military and naval forces ot the Nation owes to himself and to those he loves to avail himself of ihe full insurance protection. But the time in w Inch he can do so is limited. Prompt action is im perative. Those who joined the service before October 15, 1917, must apply for the insurance on or before February 12,1918. After that, il will be too late. The automatic insurance which is provided until February 12, 191 S, is only partial protection. Parents, brothers and sisters, who have a representative of their family in the Army and Navy should, for iheir own sake, for his, write to him at once urging him, if he has not already done so, to buy ihe Government insurance. They should urge him to buy the full $10, 000, and, above all, to buy it now.
