THE OMAHA SUNDAY BEE: SEPTEMBER 8. 1918. ; WEST ASLEEP IN WAR WORK, SAYS : OMAHA SOLDIER : East 'Gives "Sand itorm" Di vision Rousing Welcome and Wishes Thsm God speed Overseas. Sergeant C. D. Higby, an Omaha soldier who has been stationed with the national guard regiments at Camp Cody, N. M., is now stationed at Camp Dix, X. J., together with other members of the "Sandstorm" division. In a letter received by his parents. Mr. and Mrs. Beecher Higby, he notes a big difference in hospitality between the east and west. In his - letter he said: "Somebody of prominence once said; 'Go west, young man, go west.' 1 am going to change that to boldier, come east.' "I am a westerner a native of Omaha, and proud of it; but Ijnust ouiuil mat me east nas me west skinned, insofar as enthusiasm is con cerned. Evidently, the west is hardiy aware of the fact, or does not fully realize that we are really at war. "The boys of the Sandstorm di vision (the 24th) left Camp Cody, N. M., a desert of sand, glad of the fact that they were leaving and on their way to an ocean of water; and when they crossed from Kansas into Mis souri, they came literally out of the west into the east, for right therein my imagination, is a great big black boundary line. And why? All the way, from the middle of Missouri to Camp Dix, the people had the glad hand for us, and were net a bit back ward about showing it. "No matter what time of day, there was a crowd at the station to greet tis and wish us Godspeed; and the further east we came the more fer vent the people were. They were bt the depots way into the middle of the night all classes, all size's and ages, were with us from start to rin ish. i All showed the intensity of their feelings in some way or other. They shook our Hands; asked for our addresses; bought us cigars; invited us to dinner (if there was time; all very sorry that there wasn't); gave us cigarettes, fruits, everything. The old ladies (mothers, I presume,) were possibly crying; ' the fid men fvere. beaming happily; the young ladies were bashfully solicitous; and the kids were uproarious. Everywhere flags were flying; on our way we could see dish towels and dust cloths that weA paused in their work to wave us on. In the mining and smelt ing district the whistles shrieked, vying with the children. "Believe me, folks, it warmed our hearts. And I, a - native of your home city, ask of yofl to please wake up and be with us boys all the time. Never before has the cast been very far ahead of the west. Don't let it be now. "The women of this country are working, not talking of, knitting, etc. You may see them on the faims; on the street cars as conductors; driv ing taxicabs and trucks; and on section gangs. They are in the smelt er, taking- the places, of their hus bands, brothers or sons. He has gone to fight, but his work is being i kept up. Mhey are not arraia or reai, live work. Food Administration Makes New Sugar Price Eleven Cents a Pound With the approval of the president the Sugar Equalization board has fixed the price of granulated sugar for next year's basis at $9 per hun dred at seaboard points. This new price is an increase over the present price, but has for its purpose ' the standardizing of prices throughout the United States, announces the federal food administration for Ne braska. On the new basis the cost of sugar in any locality may, be had by adding freight, plus charges permitted to dealgrs. Under' this price, the cost of sugar will advance in Omaha, but the raise will not be effective until later, as wholesalers and jobbers of Ne braska are well supplied with sugar. Ultimately it means that con sumers will be required to pay 11 cents per pound for sugar. While the new schedule becomes effective Monday, wholesalers and re tailers are required to sell their 'stocks on hand at a profit over the present cost. Averaging of costs will not be permitted. Inasmuch as prac tically all Nebraska dealers have from IS to 30 days' stock on hands, it will be some time before the new prices are felt here.

Sev eral horsemen who want .to enter " torses hve no riders for them. The Omaha - Church federation, with the coming of its executive sec refary. Frank E. Mayer, is preparing to inaugurate in this city a movement which has been growing throughout America within -recent years, and which is the result of a new spirit of co-operation among the leaders of all the churches. This spirit has re ceived a decided impetus during the past years of war. and many lines of religious effort are being undertaken by organizations of churches today which were previously, left to individ ual churches. As a matter of fact the religious leaders of the United States are learning that a one armed claquer is not of any great use in making a noise. He who would do much ap plauding must have two vigorous hands. The churches have decided that they must make a noise and will hereafter use all their denominational hands in a co-operative claque to at tract the attention of a sinful world. The plans of the Omaha Church federation for presenting the claims of the churches to the public, and for more effectively organiizng the re ligious forces of the city, are not as yet definitel formed. The executive committee is now at work on a pro gram to cover the church year. The work undertaken by the fed eration will cover evangelism, with a campaign in which each church will participate in its own way; social service, in which a vnitcd effort will be made to solve some of the irritat ing problems which are constantly presenting themselves in the civic life of the community, and. of course. tnere will be for the present time a program or war work calculated to put the whole energy of the churches back of the effort to win the war and to win it in the right way. ' According to Secretary Mayer the mMhAK 'jRev.HarryD.Iostejp federation will aim to be an instru ment to be used by the churches, not an agency for directing the work of the denominational organizations. "One unfortunate misconception which frequently arises in connection with a federation of the churches," he said, "is the fear that there will be interference with the work of the churches. Nothing of this sort is to be permitted. The federation is the servant of the churches in doing the things which oujht to be done by united effort. As such a servant it can and yill do a great work in Oma ha, but the plans for this work must of necessity be worked out slowly and carefully." That there are big jobs on which the churches may and should unife is the unquestioned decision of the times. In the theological interpreta tion of religion there is still room for denominational difference. In the practical application of religion to the relief of the world's hurts there is no possible ground for dissension. The trenches in Europe and the Red Cross rooms in America are wiping out any ancient notion that dogma furnishes a sufficient reason for denominational strife. While creeds retain their power and place in intellectual and spiritual life the churches are finding a broad basis for union in the task of applying religion to life. It is the work of the Chyirch federation to furnish the ' machinery for doing this necessary thing in Omaha. The officers of the organization are Rev. Harry B. Foster, president; Rev. John T. Hawk, vice president; A. A. Remington, secretary; A. N. Eaton, treasurer; Frank E. Mayer, executive secretary. The office of the federa tion is. jn the Young Men's Christian association building. The executive committee, which has in hand the work of outlining the program for the coining year of work, has decided to meet every Tuesday noon for conference. For the present the subcommittees to be appointed are on evangelism, social service and war work. Salvation Army Speakers Talk in Stock Exchange Dr. Hugh A. Knowles. campaign director for the Salvation Army war fund, gave-a most interesting talk the rotunda of the Exchange building Saturday morning? on the remarkable work the Salvation Army is doing in the front line trenches.

Newspapers Render Aid to RctaiGrocers' Association That Omaha papers have conrtib uted much towards the success of the Retail Grocers' association by print ing frequent articles of a nature "boosting" the grocers and all their connections, is the assertion in an editorial published "last week by the Grocery Reporter. It reads in part: "The favorable publicity given the Retail Grocers' association by all our daily newspapers the past two or three years has been worth many hundreds of dollars to them and should be very much appreciated by them. These articles were published as news items, but secured principally through the medium of this paper, and proved to be an educational feature of very great value for the grocer as well as the consumer."

JEFFERIS FOR CONGRESS t Be Sure You Are Registered So That Yeu Can Vote November S. k Hay tl V 0 ! rair A Competition, how ever keen, may be tempered with bro therly love. If "competition is the life of trade" UNFAIR COMPETITION is usually the death of it. Two Bull terriers fight cover a bone and while locked in the death struggle a yellow cur sneaks up, grabs the "stake" and maktjs off with it. The sprinter who first. rah one hundred yards in ten seconds, did not lose his prestige because envious failures belittled or doubted his achievement he los) it only when a better man lowered the mark to nine 'and two-fifths seconds. I have no desire to stifle competition, nor to have everyone of one frame of mind, because when people agree it spoils talk and business retrogrades but there should be that element of fairness in competition so like able, and so characteristic of the American people. I have no patent on success. Many of my competi-, tors are first class dentists, and able mcn most of them fairminded but the only way their competition can ad versely affect my practice is when they give the public BETTER DENTISTRY TJIAN I CAN GIVE THEM AND CHARGE LESS FOR IT. Dentistry is a profession, not a business, and never intended to be a "graft." Unfair methods, unwise criti cism, childish complaints will not take the place of Skill ful work, Correct Technique, Sanitary Pecautions, Elim ination of needless pain, and conscientious fee taking in the modem" American Dental Office.
