SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 23, 1918 INDIANS AS SOLDIERS. History gives the Indians a place as warriors. Therefore one is not surprised to learn that present day Indians are becoming good soldiers in the army of Uncle Sam. Cato Sells, commissioner of Indian affairs, recently made a survey of the national cantonments in Texas, giving particular attention to the condition of the 1,500 Indians who are learning the art of war in these camps. "I addressed the Indians collectively at each cantonment and conferred with them individually, making definite inquiry concerning their treatment," Commissioner Sells said. "Everywhere I found them well contented, and nowhere either a disposition to complain or cause for complaining. "They are a splendid body of men physically, with a wonderful spirit of patriotism. "The officers in command universally complimented the Indians for their good behavior and highly commanded them as soldiers. I was especially pleased that the Indians are not segregated, but that they are located without regard to the fact that they are Indians. I am strongly opposed to independent Indian units, large or small, and am firm in the opinion that they should enter the army upon the same basis as other citizens; that they should be mixed indiscriminately among the whites, elbow to elbow, so they may absorb the English language, habits and civilization of their white brothers. In this way only can they advance. I want no discrimination either for or against them, but believe that they should be promoted on their merits and always advanced when they are deserving. "I visited the hospitals, made inquiry as to their management, called upon each sick Indian, inquired into matters of sanitation, water supply and health conditions generally. With the exception of the epidemic prevailing in Camp Bowie, the hospital enrollment was so small as to be very gratifying. This was notably true of the Indians. The difference is accounted for because the Indians come from a colder climate than most of the white soldiers. Only "HUMAN NATURE'S FOULEST BLOT." My ear is pained My soul is sick with every day's report Of wrong and outrage, with which earth is filled. There is no flesh in man's obdurate heart. It does not feel for man: the natural bond Of brotherhood is severed as the flax That falls asunder at the touch of fire. He finds his fellow guilty of a skin Not colored like his own: and having power To enforce the wrong, for such a worthy cause Dooms and devotes him as his lawful prey. My soul is sick with evi Of wrong and outrage, There is no flesh in man It does not feel for man Of brotherhood is seven That falls asunder at the He finds his fellow guil Not colored like his ow To enforce the wrong, f Dooms and devotes him Thus man devotes his b 'Tis human nature's br "Thus man devotes his brother, and destroys: 'Tis human nature's broadest foulest blot. —Cowper. one Indian is numbered among the dead." Commissioner Sells is "especially pleased that the Indians are not segregated and he gives good reasons for his opposition to independent Indian units in the army. His arguments are logical and ought to apply to all other classes of Americans in the United States Army. There should be no segregated units of colored men who are willing to die for their country. WHAT DOES IT MEAN? The following appeal is appearing in the daily press: To the Editor: May I be permitted to appeal in this personal way to your readers for a war need very pressing and very deserving of patriotic attention, and yet easily overlooked. The newly-organized Circle for Negro War Relief is trying to provide for enlisted and drafted men the same comfort and cheer that numerous societies are giving the white troops; also to care for the many cases of distress in Negro families where the wage earner is serving the country. One-tenth of our troops are colored men. Surely a movement to organize them and work toward a great common end will make the Negroes better citizens (just as all other war work is making better citizens) and will have results reaching far beyond the present crisis. The Circle for Negro War Relief is approved by, and is working with the National Red Cross. It aims to do a needed work that might have to be left partially undone in the present enormous demands on our national Red Cross. Our office (donated by a friend) is at 489 Fifth avenue, New York. We need funds at once. Every penny will go to actual relief work. Our colored troops have been brave, loyal fighters from the days of the Civil war to San Juan hill. Whatever one's view of race problems, there can be no two opinions of helping thousands of colored men and women to be more efficient soldiers and citizens and so help win the war. EMILIE BIGELOW HAPGOOD. It is possible that the American Red Cross has become so UNAMERICAN that it has drawn the color line and made the formation of a separate organization for colored soldiers necessary? What does the RED CRONS "stand for? Thousands of colored Americans are members of the National Red Cross having donated their dollars during the drive for membership last year. They asked no questions about the way the money was to be used but supposed it was for the benefit of ALL AMERICAN SOLDIERS. A strange condition seems to have arisen. WAR SAVINGS CERTIFICATES. The new war savings certificates will bear 4 per cent interest, will run for a term of five years and will be issued in denominations as low as $5. They are to be just what their names indicate, "savings" certificates, a means of investment for small savings, so that the money will be safe and profitable and at the same time affording the government the use of it. It is planned to sell the certificates to the public on the installment plan by using stamps that may be purchased and pasted in a book for that purpose. THE MAN W I honor the man entious discharge o stand alone; the w intolerant judgmen the countenances o I honor the man who in the conscientious discharge of his duty dares to stand alone; the world, with ignorant, intolerant judgment, may condemn, the countenances of relatives may be averted, and the hearts of friends grow cold, but the sense of duty done shall be sweeter than the applause of the world, the countenances of relatives or the hearts of friends.—Charles Sumner. What does it mean? When there are sufficient stamps to cover the cost of a certificate the book can be exchanged for one. The stamps will be placed on sale in every town and city in the country. The individual who has money laid by for a rainy day need have no hesitation in converting it into war savings certificates, since the government will redeem them at any time upon the request of the holder, allowing interest at 4 per cent. Under this arrangement the investor in these certificates will have the satisfaction of knowing that if any emergency should arise in his family, such as sickness or death, he could immediately realize upon his certificates. It is a safe prediction that the war savings certificates will go like "hot cakes." Their small denomination, the good interest rate, the terms upon which they may be purchased, the fact that they are not subject to taxation when held by persons of small means—all will make them an attractive investment. Working people whose margin of income above expenses is narrow at best will find in them an excellent incentive for beginning the prudent habit of saving. They will be popular for Christmas presents. School children will be able to invest part of their little weekly allowances in certificates. As a result many millions will be transferred to the Federal Treasury and through it will flow into the channels of trade, while the people of small means will be made to feel that they, too, are doing their share toward helping their country win the war. Recently at the Church of England Congress at Southampton, Sir Sidney Olivier, who was governor of Jamaica from 1907 to the end of 1912, put forward the claim that no solution of the American color question was possible except by a resolute disclaimer of the color line and the race differention theory. Sir Sidney Olivier certainly knows what he is talking about. In the island of Jamaica, where he was governor for five years, there are about 800,000 colored people and only 20,000 whites and yet there is absolutely no friction between the races. Jamaica is a British colony and the government is just. Colored men enjoy every civil and political right which white men have and there is no color line. Among other things Sir Sidney said: "My study and comparison of conditions in the United States and the West Indies," he said, "has brought me to that conclusion. American and colonial politicians and public men are not Exeter Hall abolitionists nor evangelical Christian missionaries. I do not expect them to adopt the methods of missionaries, nor do I sympathize with all their programmes. But it cannot be ignored that it happened that the faiths of the men who laid the foundations for the peaceful development of the mixed community in Jamaica were democratic and humanitarian and, above all, uncompromisingly Christian. "Were race differentiation held to it must increase civil disord. When the balance of numbers is as it is in the South in America it must tend to foster obscure preparations for civil war and rebellion. If statesmen and citizens face in the contrary direction I do not say that they will attain immediately civil peace, but I am confident that they will be traveling the only road toward it. "I do not suggest that race does not greatly affect facilities for combination between humans in healthy national life, but race difference is THE ONLY SOLUTION: only one of many schismatic agencies. The solution of the difficulty involves discipline for the white man as well as the black." CONVERTING THE ESKIMO. Christian missionaries seem to have made little headway in converting the Eskimo in the far north, according to Donald B. MacMillan, head of the Crockerland expedition, who has recently returned to New York, after four years in the Arctic. Mr. McMillan was in daily contact with the Eskimos. He finds them lovable and easily managed. The members of the expedition trusted, implicitly the little colony of six families at Eta, base of the expedition, on the northeast shore of Greenland, and never suffered a loss by theft. Yet the same understanding of the Eskimo character has made Mr. McMillan skeptical as to the power of missionary work to better their social standards. "I don't believe the missionaries will be able to change the social customs of the Eskimos very greatly. They are a happy, care-free, jovial people. They are continually laughing. If they see a man in serious thought for more than a few minutes at a time they think something is wrong with him. And, really, they have all the necessary virtues right now. They love each other, they care for each other's welfare, and they protect each other. If one is hungry all are hungry. They have a perfect socialism. "And they are absolutely honest. Our supplies at Eta lay on the ground in plain view of every one in the settlement for four years, and no one ever touched them without permission. In New York after dark they wouldn't remain four minutes before being stolen. "Piblocko" is the word that expresses what the Eskimos think of the world at war, Mr. MacMillan said. It means "run amuck; gone clean crazy." The Eskimos believe that all the white man nations have gone "piblocko." "I tried to explain," Mr. MacMillan said, "that the war started because but they wouldn't believe it; they only shook their heads and said: 'No; that's impossible. There is plenty of land for everybody.' When we were getting ready to leave Eta they begged us to remain with them. 'Why go back there?—meaning civilization—happy.'" THE APPEAL believes that the missionaries who are trying to "convert" the Eskimos are "piblocko," especially those from the United States, who are trying to impose the American brand of jimcrow Christianity on them. If they have all of the necessary virtues right now, why waste time and money teaching them the murderous Christianity of America? INCREASED PENSIONS PROPOSED INCREASED PENSIONS PROPOSED Substantial increases in existing rates of pension for disablement of the limbs from injuries received in line of duty, are contained in a bill introduced by Representative George P. Darrow of Pennsylvania, which will come up for action by the House at the next session of congress. Mr. Darrow's proposed rates run from $65 for the loss of total disability of one hand or one foot, to $150 for the loss or total disability of both arms and both legs. They amount roughly to an increase of about 50 per cent in the existing rates for similar cases. The bill is made to apply to persons already on the pension rolls, and to all who may be granted a pension hereafter, but Mr. Darrow specifically provides that the measure shall not operate to reduce any pension heretofore granted. The passage of this measure will be heartily approved of by the people. CAN'T BEAT NELSON. The President's counsel to Minnesota Democrats to join with the Republicans in re-electing Senator Knute Nelson is a virtue born of necessity. The Senator had expressed a desire to retire to private life. No Democrat stands a ghost of a show to succeed him. If he runs again and is elected by both parties, the Democrats have lost nothing. A real display of non-partisanship by Democrats would be to abstain from contests in States which are normally Republican, but where there now happen to be Democratic Senators by reason of the divided Republican strength in 1912, which enabled Democrats to slip into office. When Mr. Wilson counsels the Democrats of his own State of New Jersey to make no contest for Senator next time, he will have given convincing evidence of his real desire for non-partisanship in the elections during the war. HIGHER PENSIONS Representative Charles E. Fuller of Illinois has prepared a bill that will bring happiness to all surviving veterans of the Civil War. It provides that every person who served ninety days or more in the military or naval service shall receive a pension of $50 per month if receiving less than that sum at the present time. Another measure introduced by Mr. Fuller proposes to increase the pension of Army nurses to $25 per month. Both bills have been referred to the Committee on Invalid Pensions, of which Mr. Fuller is a leading member, and he intends to use his best efforts to get them favorably reported at as early a date as possible. February, although the shortest month in the year, has included in it some notable events, namely, the birthdays of Abraham Lincoln, Frederick Douglass and George Washington, the anniversaries of which will be more or less celebrated in different parts of the country. Then this is the month in which the darned ground hog determines whether or not we are to have six weeks more of the miserable weather that the weather man has been furnishing lately. Tomorrow is Sun-day but we hope that despicable little varmint will not leave his hole until a friendly cloud obstructs old Sol's rays and prevents him from seeing his shadow. That, necessity is the mother of invention, is being demonstrated daily during the war. The people are doing things they did not even dream of doing four years ago and doing without many things they deemed actually necessary to their existence. They are learning conservation, thrift and Hooverizing and when the war shall have ended, a consummation to be devoutly wished for, they will know more than ever before how to make both ends meet. This war has been, is, and will be, a great educator. What a day that will be when the tidings are flashed over the sea and land that peace has been declared! From ten thousand times ten thousand steeples bells will ring out, as if they were human things, their wild delight at the long-hoped-for event. Never, in the history of the world will there have been such a day of universal joy.—Our Dumb Animals. In Middletown, Conn., a Congregational, a Baptist, and a Methodist church have voted to unite and worship for three months to save coal. The example set by these churches could be followed by the churches in many large cities. --- Heaven grant that 1918 may forever be memorable as the last year of this unspeakable war.—Our Dumb Animals. Why Did They Prefer "Colored?" (From the New York News.) We trust that all of the advocates—learned and otherwise, white and black, North and South—of the use the word "Negro" as a race term have taught the full meaning of its use at Houston, Texas. At the request of the Twenty-fourth Infantry men themselves, the authorities decided to refer to them henceforth "colored" soldiers. They had been deferred and nagged and goaded by the corrupted use of the word until forbearance ceased to be one of their virtues. They had become contemptuously and constantly referred to in the daily press not as American soldiers, or Americans, nor as "Uncle Boys" or in any other respectful term. They had been designated and debased in a public mind there—the brave, men, who influence the American flag—as "Negroes." Perceiving this evil practice and influence the while officers of the Twenty-fourth appealed to the authorities to use the word "colored" instead. With the word "colored," troops or soldiers would have to be used. A kindlier feeling between the soldiers and the townpeople they were sure would inevitably result. They were profoundly tight, but they were too late. Had the troops been prior to their coming in Houston, the state of affairs might have ensured. We all promiscuous, wilful and indifferent users of the word "Negro" to ponder this situation slowly. The troops and their officers for the change should be a striking example to all Doubting Thomasases as to just how the practice works out today in hard, everyday life. Whatever the argument about making it respectable in the future, it decreases respect for the face today. It does no good today. What reason, then, for its use? Are what reason, to be called "niggers?" Are you able to have your wife or mother called a "Negress?" Then do discontinue using "Negro." If you think it worth while for you to be referred to as a man and your folk as people, insist on the use of the word "colored." Must Judge A Group by Its Beat. Must Judge A Group by Its Best. (From the Christian Register, Boston Mass.) No one can be said to know any class of people who has not been in intimate and sympathetic relation with the best as well as the worst of the class. We compare many persons who live in the South, and think they know the colored race, with others who have had no such contact, but who have come into intimate and sympathetic relations with large numbers that race whom their Southern friend have never known; and of the two sets of people we should say that the second group of colored people better than the first. They whose aspirations among them that the others do not know, or, knowing, do not enter into and appreciate; they know capabilities by direct contact with the best of the race which others are oblivious of; they know qualities which only respect and sympathy can bring out; they know possibilities to which others by their very acquaintance are blinded. If those who know the colored race through the mass and by observation merely could know what individual possibilities are demonstrated in growing numbers of the elect, and would be courageously candid with themselves, revise their judgments and possibly stren their prejudices. At any rate, they ought to credit to those on whom they charge ignorance of the colored race the values that come from knowing how many of that race are the equal of any members of the dominant race in the highest abilities and in the clearest atms. No estimate is worth much which does not take people at their best. Should Open the Doors to Opportunity (From the Christian Register.) A circular sent a employee in a large city, calling attention to the number and quality of young colored men trained in the schools of the city, and asking co-operation and counsel in making their services available, brought one reply which though anomous is significant of an opinion still widely influential. "Kindly send them to Africa, instead of mixing them with us." As the expression of an individual desire these two points are of course admissible, but as practicable it is curious that any intelligent person should them. Does any one suppose that the colored population of the United States could be sent to Africa, or that if they were sent they would go? So WANTED, A SAMARITAN. Prone in the road he lay. Wounded and sore bestead: Priests, Levites past that way, And turned aside the head. They were not hardened men In human service slack: His need was great: but then His face, you see, was black. From the New York Independent. long as they are here, and have already been mixing for more than a century, and have the rights of citizenship, including the right to die with white men for their country, is it any reckonable menace to respectability and intrinsic leadership to open a few more industrial doors to their proved abilities and usefulness? While we write, a moving-van is unloaded by the colored men and one colored man. The colored men are the boss, the white men take his orders. There is not the least trouble about it. There would never be trouble if it were not made by people of the temper of the anonymous objector. Hates the Term "Negro." "I hate the term Negro because it is being used in terms of hatred. It is the cause of the segregation of the Negro; it is being used in contempt in public places; it is an excuse for disfranchising him; and it is an excuse for lynching him. Only one tenth of one per cent of the colored people in America can trace their origin to a slave country; no more right to call all colored people Negroes than to call all white people Turks or Armenians."—Ex-Assistant United States Attorney General Wm. H. Lewis, Boston, Mass. "Negroes and Dogs Not Allowed" (From the Nashville Clarion) Down in Houston, Texas are some elevators in public buildings labeled "NEGROES AND DOGS NALLOWED." Generous Classification! Such signs as these account in such manner, for the exceedingly rapid manner in which the Colored men are depopulating the South. They can be neither blamed nor censured for leaving a town like this. They have hearts and souls and human pride, just like the people of other races. Campaign Against Lynching. in the Carruthers Recorder.) There is no better time than NOW to begin the Crusade Against Lynching in the United States. For the raptivity with which this national crime has spread, the barbarity with which it is committed and the utter disgraceful complacency with which it is regarded, should arouse the con- The Cause of Migration (Atlanta (Ga ) Independent) Lankan (Ga) independent. When men was 15c a pound and flour 8.00c a bar the colored laborer received from $4.00c a week. Now meat is 30c a pound and $16.00 a barrel, he is receiving the same wages. He cannot live at this and the white man cannot expect him to remain in the South and live on the starvation wages he is paying him when the fields and the factories in the North and West are offering him living wages. If the white man will suppress lynching and lawlessness in the rural districts, pay the colored deal on the wages, give him a square deal on the schools, open the doors of the schools, borrow stories to his prowess, and let him in labor unions, municipal ordinances (to keep colored men from leaving the South) will be unnecessary. FOOD CONSERVATION Lest we forget! We are at War, and it is not a mere outing like the Spanish-American War—but a serious war in which the little things that each person is asked to do will prove of as special importance as the larger ones. You are asked to make the small sacrifices, so that the larger sacrifices will not be necessary. If one-half of all the colored families in the United States would use one teaspoonful of sugar less in their tea and coffee one day each week, this little sacrifice would result in the saving of 1,500,000 pounds of sugar a year. Sugar is a necessity in this war. If one-half of our families would use one pound of flour less each week, it would save 800,000 bushels of wheat, which could be sent to help feed our soldiers and those who are fighting by our side in this war.

That its value and advantages are appreciated by the Army and Navy is evidenced by the extent which it has been availed of. Secretary of the Treasury McAdoo officially announced on December 14 that 238,924 applications had already been received, representing $2,073,728,500 of insurance. The average amount for applicants is $8,679, which is very little less than the maximum of $10,000. The American forces in France were prompt in availing themselves of the insurance, Gen. Pershing himself subscribing to the maximum of $10,000. The Color Line in the Catholic Church. (From the Southwestern Christian Advocate, New Orleans, La.) There are two hundred thousand colored Catholics in the United States according to Walter F. McEntire, a prominent Catholic, who in telling of the orders and societies of men and women working among color people in the United States, among other things says in the Tidings, of Los Angeles: "The Church knows no color-line in the House of God, and any man who tries to lay one down is not a true Catholic." This is good reading but it is not true to fact. There are only two colored priests in the entire Catholic colored constituency of America, and the Catholic Church is the only religious body in America that forces on its constituency a white ministry. Moreover, the color issue is drawn as completely in the Catholic Church as in the Church of England, when the Catholic churches welcome oed people to the altars but not now, in St. Joseph Church, New Orleans, a few seats in the rear are marked reserved for colored. New President for Hampton Institute. New York, Dec. 23.—The Rev. James E. Gregg, a congregational minister of Pittsfield, Mass., has been appointed president of Hampton Institute to succeed the late Dr. H. B. Frizel. A Chinese Puzzle. (From the Cleveland Gazette) (From the Cleveland Gazette.) The governor of Massachusetts and mayor of Boston are trying to find out why Jews are refused enlistment in that state's field artillery and in the final assault. Also, why Afro-Americans from that state (and others) are refused at the Plattsburgh N. Y., officers' military training camp where Dr. J. E. Spingarn is a major in-training.

(From The Christian Register.) Race bitterness makes argument, or discussion, or any effort to come to a common understanding quite useless. Where much racefeeling is engaged, reason is neutralized. With some people, questions of the rights of colored people of California have become impossible. They simply cannot discuss the subject. While this case in this country, we have ensured do in cleansing our own blood of germs of conflict without thinking it our main business to reach across the water in restraint of war. War is incipient among us in these matters, and cruel barbarities frequent enough, to keep us busy reforming ourselves, across the land speaks out emphatically, against almost every wrong in the country—except race prejudice.

The Association has been remarkably successful, however, and today will be able to plank down the $1,000 that falls due today. It is quite remarkable that in the few years the hall was opened over $10,000 has been built and business. This shows that in union there is strength and also that the managers have shown business ability. They are to be congratulated. The Ladies' Minstrels and Masque Ball given under the auspices of Queen of Sheba Chapter 70. O. E. S. at Union Hall last week, despite the fact that it had to be postponed once on account of bad weather was a splendid success both artistically and financially, owing to personal efforts of the splendid committee, Mrs. Frank O'Donnell, Mrs. Mary Mosse, Mrs. Q.

A apple dish dinner was served with the national as the piece de resistance with baked apple dumplings as a finale. The occasion was very enjoyable. Mr. McCoy left Monday for Winnipeg, where he is employed. Mrs. Anna Wilson has been a living witness of the truth in the adage: "Misfortunes seldom come singly." A short time ago she had to part for the first time from her charming daughter, Miss Olga, who went to Washington, D. C., to teach school; then she had fire to stop her business at her cafe, The Elite; then she was delayed a long time while repairs were being made. Now she has had the sad intelligence that her mother, Mrs. Agnes Davis, of New Orleans, died last Saturday and was buried Monday. She, however, is meeting her troubles and living them down as best she can and thanking God that they are no worse. This Is Self Explanatory. It will be remembered that a fire occurred in the Elite Cafe, corner of Kent and St. Anthony avenue in January which necessitated the closing of that popular establishment ever since while repairs were being made, which, however, have now been completed and the cake is better than ever prepared to cater to all comers, both old and new.

It will always be a pleasure for me to commend you to those who may need something in your line is to be hoped that our people will give insurance at least, as they will be photographed one who is vitally interested in them. You are at liberty to use this communication wherever you may see fit. Thanking you again, I remain. Very respectfully, (Signed) Anna Wilson, Elite Cafe, A NATIONAL DUTY. There Should Be a Liberty Bond in Every Home. The Treasury of the United States has a great deal of money to raise and it can not be raised by bankers alone, says Secretary McAdoo. The banks of this country can not alone sustain America's needs in this war and extend to our allies the essential aid which they must have to continue the war. The rich of this country can not do it alone; the men of this country can not do it alone; the women of this country can not do it alone; but all of us, the people of the United States, disregarding partisanship, forgetting selfish interests, thinking only of the supremacy of right and determined to vindicate the majesty of American ideals and secure the safety of America and civilization, can do the great and splendid work which God has called upon us to do. F. D. McCRACKEN. Suggested as a Candidate for the State Legislature. The last issue of the North Central Progress, Mr. G. Mueller, editor and owner, contained the following complimentary notice: "Fred D. McCracken, former private secretary to ex-Congressman F. C. Stevens, has been suggested by a large number of people of this district for a candidate for representation in the State Legislature. Mr. McCracken is a very able man; is well versed in legislative matters; has had the training for many years of one of the best representatives in Congress that Minnesota ever had; and he has many friends who would give him their support." THE APPEAL echoes those same sentiments, and so do a host of his friends in that neck of the woods. MRS. LILLIAN TURNER. Graduates From the University of Minnesota With Honors. Mrs. Lillian Turner graduated last week from the University of Minnesota, finishing a four years' course in three and a half years.

Elihu Root delivered an address. What he said there is just as applicable here, and this is what he said in part: "You can begin saving by the dollar, or you can begin saving by the quarter. You can see how this works. All four birds with one stone, which is simple and markmanship that I would like to applaud all along the German trenches. The and perhaps the most important is this, that you save by not using, and what you don't use is left for the Government to use for our men. Every yard of cloth less that you use in your apparel is a yard of cloth more to put into uniforms and blankets. Every sooth less than you wear, is a pair of one of our men to stand in the trenches. And it is most amazing the way in which a vast number of small contributors mount up. "The second bird is that you turn your 25c, your $4.12, over to the Government, and the Government has the money to use in winning the war, has it until after the war is all over. It has the money to buy steel, to make powder, to make rifles, to make shoes, to make steamships, to do all the vast multitude of things necessary to be done to win this war. The third bird is that when the war is no peace has come again, the production wealth has recommenced, we are all prosperous again, victorious and prosperous. America, sailing the sea with our commander underbred by arrogant attempts at superiority prevail, then the Government will pay to you the money that you have thrown away in the meantime, and you will have it. "The fourth bird is that you will be better people. You have laid the foundation for the restoration of a virtue that should obtain in all democracies, in all republics. You will have wiped off from the great surface of our National Record the reproach of being a wasteful, extravagant, money-loving, luxury-loving people and you will make yourselves, by that exercise of the virtue of thrift, and you will make your children, more like those great and noble men who founded our republic, and through their privations and sacrifices gave us the liberty and the justice that we have." Therefore let every loyal citizen in the state of Minnesota determine to slay as many "birds" as possible. The more stamps you buy, the quicker comes the end. T The The War Has Thrown a Load of Work On the T The War Has Thrown a Load of Work and Expense On the Telephone Company Did you ever notice the difference between the size of the crowd in a store Saturday afternoon and other days in the week? The telephone company is now serving a "Saturday afternoon crowd" every day. Since the war began, the business activity of the country has been expanding with abnormal rapidity. This has required constantly more and more telephone service for the business houses. Complete telephone systems have been built and are maintained at more than fifty training camps over the country. This is taking a tremendous amount of equipment.
