SUPREME TEST OF NATION HAS COME SAYS PRESIDENT Must Supply Abundant Food Not Only For 'Ourselves, But Also For Large Part of Nations. With Whom Ameri ca Has Made Common Cause. * Washington.-In an appeal to all citizens of the country, President Wil son stressed the opprtunity for the farmers of the South to "show their patriotism," which he said can be done ii no better way "than by resisting t.he great temptation of the present porice of cotton, and helping upon a great scale to feed the Nation and the peoples everywhere who are fighting for their liberties and our own." The President's address follows: "My Fellow Countrymen: The en trance of our own beloved country into the grim and terrible war for democracy and human rights which has shaken the world, creates so many problems of National life and action which call for immediate considern tion and settlement that I hope you will permit me to address to you a .ew words of earnest counsel and ap peal with regard to them. "We are rapidly putting our Navy upon an effective war footing, and are about to create and equip a great Army, but these are the simplest parts of the great task to which we have addressed ourselves. There is not a single selfish element, so far' as I can see, in the cause we are fighting for. "We are fighting for what we be lieve and wish to be the rights if mankind and for the future peace and security of the world. To do this great thing worthily and successfully, we must devote ourselves to the ser vice without regard to profit or mater ial advantage, and with an energy an ' intelligence that will rise to the level of the enterprise itself. We must realize tio the full how great -the task is and how many things, how many kinds and elements of capacity and service and self-sacrifice it involves. Things Nation Must Do. "These, then, are the things we must do, and do well, besides fight ing, the things without which more fighting would be fruitless: "We must supply abundant food for ourselves and for our. armies and our seamen, not only, but also for a large part of the Nations with whom we have now made common cause, in whose support and by whose sides we shall be fighting. "We must supply ships by the hun dreds out of our ship yards to carry to the other sidc of the sea, submarines or no submarines, that will every day be needied there, and abundant mater ials out of our fields and our mines and our factories with which, not only to clothe and equip our own for-ces on land and sea, but also to clothe andl support our people for whom the gal lant fellows under arms can no longer work, to help clothe and equip the armies with which we are co-operating in Europe, and to keep the looms ant2 manufactories there in raw material, coal to keep the fires going in ships at sea and in the frunaces of hundreds of fact-ories across the sea; steel out of which to make arms and ammuni tion both here and there; rails for worn-out railways back of the fighting fronts locomotives and rolling stock to' take the place of those every day going to pieces; mules, horses, cattle for labor and for military service; everything with which the people of England and France and Italy and Russia have usually supplied them selves, but cannet now afford the men, the materials or the machinery to make. Industrial Patriotism. 'It is evident to every thinking man that our industries on the farms, in the ship yards, in the mines, in the factories, must be made more prolific and more efficient than ever, and that they must be more economically man aged and better adated to the par ticular requirements of our task than they have been; and what I wvant to say is that the men and the women who devote their thought and their energy to these things will be0 serv ing the country and conducting the fight for peace and freedom just as truly and just as, effectively as the men on the battlefield or in the trenches. The indlustrli forces of the country. men and women alike,, will be a gr-eat National, a great inter national service army. * * * The Supeme Test. "I take the liberty, therefore, of addressing this word to the farmers of the country and to all who work on the farms: The supreme need of our own nation and the nations with~ Which we are co-operating is an abundance of supplies, food supply especially for the present year, is superlative. Without abundant foed. alike for the armies and the peoplesi flow at war, the whole streaa antex" prise upon which we h'ave embarked will break down and fall. The world's food reserves are low.| Not only dur. ing the present emergency, but for some time after peace shall have come both our own people and a large pro portion of the people' of Europe must rely upon the harvests in America. Upon the farmers of this country, therefore, in a large measure, rests the fate of -the war and the fate of the nations. May the nation not count upon them to omit no step that will increase the production of their land or that will bring about the most effectual co-operaition in the sale and distribution of their, products? The time is short. It is of the most imperative importance that everything possible be done and done immediate ly to make sure of large harvests. - I call upon young men and old alike, and upon the able-bodied boys of the land to accept and act upon 'this duty, to turn in hosts to the farms and make certain that no pains and no labor is lacking in this great matter. Appeal to South. "I particularly appeal to the farmers of the South to plant abundant food stuffs as well as cotton. They can show their patriotism in no better or more convincing way than by resist ing the great temptation of the present price of cotton and. helping upon a great scale,, to feed the nation and the peoples everywhere who are fight Ing for their librties and our own. The variety of their crops will be the visible measure of their comprehen sion of their national duty. "The government of the United States and the governments of the several states stand ready to co-oper ate. They will do everything possible to assist farmers in securing an ade quate supply of seed, an adequate force of laborers when they are most needed at harvest time and the means of expediting shipments of fer tilizers and farm machinery, as well as the crops themselves, when har vested. The course of trade shall be as unhampered as it is 19ossible to make it, and there shall be no unwar ranted manipulation of -the nation's food supply by those who handle it on i-ts way to the consumer. This is our opportunity to demonstrate the ef ficiency of a great democracy, and we shall not fall short of it. "This, let me say to the middlemen of every sort, whether they are hand ling our foodstuffs or our raw mate rials of manUfacture, or the products of our mills and factories, the eyes of the country will be especially upon you. This is your opportunity for sig nal service, efficient and disinterest ed. The country expects you, as it expects all others, to forego unusual proffts, -to organize and expedite ship ments of supplies of every kind, but especially of food, with an eye to the service you are rendering and in the spirit of those who enlist in the ranks, for their people, not for themselves. I shall confiderly expect you io de serve and win the confidence of peo ple of every sort and station. To the Railroads. "To the men who run the railways of .the country, whether they be man agers or- operative employees, let me say that the railways are the arteries of the nation's ,ife. and that upon them rests the imniense responsibility of seeing .to it that 'those artor-ies suf fer no obstruction of any kind, no in efficeincy or slackened power. To the merchant, let me suggest the motto: 'Small profits and quick ser vice'; and to the shipbuilder, the thought that the life of the war de pends upon him. The food and the war supp~lies must be carrled across the seas, no mat'ter- how many ships are sent to the bottom. The places of those that god down must be supplied and eupplied at once. Tb the miner, let me say that he stands wvhere the farmer does; the work of the world -waits on him. If he slackens or fails, armies and statesmen are helpless. He also is enlisted in the great service army. The manufacturer does .not need to be told, I hope, that .the nation looks to him to speed and perfeot .every pro cess,'and I want only to r-enjind his employes that their service is abso lutely indispensable and is counted on by every .man wle loves the country and its liberties. "Let me suggest, also, tha-t every one who creates or cultivates a gar den helps, and helps greaitly, to solve the problem of the feeding of the nations; andl that every housewife wh~o practices strict economy puts herself in the ranks of those who servo the na tion. This is the time for America to correct her unpardonable fault of wastefulness and extravagance. Let every man and every woman assume the duty of careful, provident use and expenditure as a public dutty, as a dic tate of patriotism which no one cani now expect-ever to be excused or for given for ignoring. "In the. hope that this statement of the needs of the nattion and of the world in t'hIs hour of supreme crists may stimulate those to whom it comes and remind all who need reminder of the solemn duties of a time such as the world has never- seen before, I beg that all editors and publishers everywhere ill give as prominent publication end as wide circulation as possible 'to this appeal,' I venture to suggest, also, to all advertising agen cies that they would perhaps render a very substantial and timely service to the country if they would give it widespread repetition. And I hope that clergymen will not think the theme of it an unworithy or inappro priate subject of comment and homily ,fr-om their pulpits. "The supreme test of the nation has come. We must all speak, act and serve together! "WOml nOW WIr SOiN" INOORSEMENT OF COURSE TAKEN BY UNITED STATES BY SOUTH AMERICAN COUNTRIES GRATIFYING TO WASHINGTON. Ecquador, Venezuela and ColombIa, Not Yet Heard From, Expected to Define Attitude. Washington.--Prompt endorsements from South America of the action of the United States in taking Germany's challenge to war are the source of great gratilleation to officials of the administr-tatino. There remained but .three countries, E'Xcuador, Venezuela, and Colombia, which had not defined their positions, and it was believed that before the end of this week they, too, would resl)ond. With the exception of Costa Rica, none of the Central Atuerican group had declared its attitude. but no con cern over where their sympathy will be placed has been felt at the state department. So far Cuba is the only war spot in Latin-America, but the positions as sumed by Panama and Costa Rica place them practically in the list of warring nations. and almost no doubt remains that Brazil will be at war within a few days. The only govern ients that have not been frank in their enrodrseni t of the step taken by the United States are Chile and Perua. the former confining itself to a formal declaration of neutrality and the latter to "deploring" the fact that the United States had beeni unable to adjust her difficulty with Germany without recourse to war. Way They Line Up. Following is the way the other Latin-American nations. whose posi tions are defined, were lined up: Cuba-Declared war against Ger many. Panama-Declared he- readiness to assist in ary way possible in the pro tection of the Panama Canal. Costa Rica-Offered her ports and other territorial waters to the United States for war needs of the American navy. Brazil-Relations broken with Ger thany. Bolivia-Relations broken with Ger many. Uruguay-Endorsed the action of the United States and characterized Germany's sebmarine warfare as "an insult to humanity." Paraguay-Expressed sympathy witt the government of the United StateE rights of neutrals." Argentina-Endorsed the action o the United Statesas just and right. Mexico-Neutral. State department officials believe I possible that the government of Ecqua dor may consider itself bound to adop a somewhat equivocal att4tude becausi of, a suggestion made several week ego that a conference of neutrals to be held at Montevideo to,atuqy mean. for bringing the war to an- end. Guatemala's proclamnatiop of. ma'tial law was still regarded here as a pre cautionary step) tken by Pres-ident Es. tnada Cabrer'a preliminar-y to a break wvithi Germany. It was believed that Honduras, Salvador and Nicaragua, the i'emaining uncommIltted natIons of Central America,. are awaiting action by Gautemala .andl thnt they will an n'ounce their- positions immediately af. ter Guatemala speaks. The United States has' looked to Latin-America for uoral support more theami for material assistapg,*Jyt ther: has been no disposition to undlertake the very material assistance that might be rendered if it became neces. sary'. The tot-al peace strength of Lati'n-Amrica's armies Is only 334,000 menh but the potential power is sev oral'times that, and reports from the South American republics have indi cateil that no tIme will be lest in raising fighting forces, to their full war :strength.

LESSON I-;xr---JohnI 12:1-11. GOLDEN TEDXT-She hath done what she could.-Mk. 14:8. This is a lesson of Jesus in the home. It occurred at the beginning of passion week. We have before us the master; the worker, Martha; the wor shiper, blary ; the witness, Lazarus; the traitor, Judas, and the people with out. An unonsoious bit of wisdom fell frot the lips of that good house wife who exclaimed, "llow tmuch bet ter mly neighbors' houses look when I have my windows clean." Too much we are looking through the eyes of selfishness. Out of this lessona let us learn to look through unselfish eyes. I. Unjust Criticism (vv. 1-0). It is six days before Jesus' last Passover. The accounts of Alatthew and Mark suggest It to have been within two days, because they mentioned this feast after telling of the conspiracy of the chlef priests and elders with Ju daIs, who cane to his determination to sell his Master after the reprimand given him on this occasion. (1) The Value of Good Deeds. Je sus did not forget, in the supreme hour of his life, the friends whoni he loved. To bring themn somte further spiritual gifts, he had come to their home li Ilethanty. Doubtless he also had in mind the desire to nourish the faith which had been kindled in the hearts of all by the resurrection of Lazarus, just as he returned to Cana after having perforned his first mir acle (John 4:54). Jesus was Very God of Very God, yet lie was very much of a real tian; therefore lie en joyed the pleasures of homne as.inuch as other nen, and the joys of kitnship and brotherhood. (2) The Wealth of Good Deeds. Out of her love Mairy expended $51, prob ably her whole treasure, in the pur chase of this alahaster box, and put it aside to use it upon himta at the proper time. We do not think that she stopped to calculate the cost of this ointment. Love never estituates value. Her deed proved a safer guide of con duct than the calculating prudence of Judas and the other disciples (see Matt. 20:8). Such deeds are always looked upon with suspicion. The Isea riots usually are the le4ders in criti cizing the actions of others. Etnvy lay t at the bottoma of their criticism, but good deeds are unconscious, for we read that "the house wais filled with odor." (3) ;A Standard of Good Deeds (Mark 14:8) ; "She did what site could," and we have also the record of good deeds, a memorial to her (Mark 14 :9). A Irge nuber of peo Ipile who never give of their owni to thte poor intor to thte kingdot of God are willing to criticize others who (10 give out of the gratitude of their loving heairts. Ii. Gracious Commendation (vv. 7-11). Jesus praisedl where his disei ples andl Judas criticized. The p~oor they alwvays laud with thetm (Mark 14:7). -i Tis must htave been a chal lenge thaat evidently they haid not at tetnded to thte poor ais they should. Jesus also tells themna frantkly thtait whatever they (10 for himt they tmuist (10 speedlily. Jesus' judlgmtenat upotn Judas is a rebuke of the disciples ; his explosure of te sophistry of the c'rLt ies timd of their subtlety is suggestive.. Upon Miary's act he bestowed the highest possible prailse. "Sihe hath done what site coutld." Thtat is all that is asked of anyone (II Cor.8:12). Suach commtetdation as Jesus bestowed upon' Mary hie. uestowed upon no other, and his wottderfutl predictions concerning her (Maatt. 20 :13) have beeni literally fulfilled. Jesus' judgmtent upona Mary is also suggestive. Ie shtieldedh her, "let her alone ;" H~e aipprtoved her works as beinag goodl, atnd lie inter pI'eted her innierttost puirpose in the act which she had performed.
