TIMEFORARGUMENT
HAS NOW CEASED
Every Man Must Put Shoulder
Jo the Wheel in This
World-Wide War.
NO SELFISH INTERESTS
Any Person Thinks of Self Instead of
America Is on a Pur With
Uniformed Soldier Who
Deserts His Hunks.
America's one and only business
today is war. Whether we like it or
not, we are at war, and war to the
death. The time for argument has
passed. Ixever since the battle of
Lexington have the people of this
country been faced by the absolute
necessity of Instant and united ac
tion as one man, or let American lib
erty and justice perish from the
earth.
The United States must MUST,
not ought to place 5,000,000 of her
very best men on the battlefields with
her allies at the earliest possible
hour. They will go. From farm and
factory and workshop they will go,
ready to offer "the last full measure
of devotion" to their country. No
one should stand In their way, or
seek to have them or any of, them re
lieved! of the responsibility to which
their country has called them. Rath
er will every patriotic man and wo
man who remains at home do his or
her utmost in their absence not only
to amintain present efficiency of in-,
dustry, but to Increase that efficien
cy. Our soldiers must be armed and
fed and clothed, and the person who
contributes his utmost to arm and
feed and clothe them is himself a
soldier. America's war motto should
be: "Soldiers Everywhere." Soldiers
on the firing line; soldiers digging
trenches; soldiers felling trees; sol
diers building railroads; soldiers
building ships; soldiers making mu
nitions; solders makng clothng; sol
ders manufacturing foods; soldiers
handling freight; soldiers producing
foodstuffs every man from the
plow on the farm to the rifle in the
trenchf equally indispensable as a
part of the great war machine that
must win this conflict. The person
in any walk of life, in any industry
farm, office, factory, anywhere
who today thinks of self instead of
America is' to that extent as much a
traitor to his country as the uniform
ed soldier who deserts the army.
Germany's efficiency has astound
ed the world. 'No other nation could
alone have wagedi so successful and
so long a war on practically the en
tire world-as Germany has. But for
decades she has been getting ready.
Forty years ago Germany was put
ting into practice in her industries
efficiency measures, that America is
today reluctantly and with difficulty
putting into hers. German efficiency
is such that every ounce of energy of
every individual is applied without
lost motion to the one great purpose,
and America must follow the same
ironclad rule. Every ounce of hu
man energy must be applied that the
soil may produce her utmost, and
every ounce of that produce must be
made to contribute to the accomplish
ment of America's one great pur
pose, the winning of this war.
When it comes to exemptions on
account of occupation of the young
man under the selective draft, sec
tion 80 of the regulations prescribed
by President Wilson, November 8,
1917, says:
"It is the interest of the nation
solely that must be subserved. The
interest of individuals can not be
considered as such and can only ben
efit from the action of district boards
where the individual interest hap
pens to coincide with the interest of
the nation; and, furthermore, the
success of the nation's military oper
ations Is the dominant object to
which the conservation of certain
industries is related as one means to
that end."
In this connection the following
part of rule 17 will be of interest:
"A particular industrial or agri
cultural enterprise shall be found
to be necessary only when it, .is
shown of such enterprise that it is a
well conducted and going concern,
contributing substantially, and' ma
terially to the military establish
ment, the effective operation of the
military forces, or the maintenance
of the national interest during emer
gency, and, further, of a particular
agricultural enterprise; that it Is ap
parently producing an appreciable
amount of agricultural produce over
and above what is necessary for the
maintenance of. those living on the
place," ' N .
The following definition of the
word "necessary" as applied to the
registrant is given In rule 18:
"1. That the registrant is actual
ly and completely engaged in the en
terprise In the capacity recited and
that he is competent and qualified in
that capacity.
"2. That the removal of the reg
istrant would result in direct sub
stantial, material loss and detriment
to the adequate and effective opera
tion of the enterprise to a degree
proportionate to the importance of
the capacity recited' in the rule.
"3. That the available supply of
persons competent In the capacity re
cited In the rule is such that the reg
istrant can not be replaced in such
capacity without direct, substantial,
material loss and detriment to the
adequate and effective operation of
the enterprise to a degree propor
tionate to the importance of such
copoclty.
"Note: In applying rule 18 the
board shall consider generally:
"1. The length of time the regis
trant has been engaged in the capac
ity. "2. The nature of claimant's study,
training and experience.
"3. ' The actual condition which
would result from his removal."
According to the selective service
regulations
Those engaged in, and necessary
to the effective operation of, a neces
sary agricultural enterprise are to
ue exempted in class 1, first called. ,
Class 2 will include those exempt
ed in class 1, but will exempt skill
ed farm laborers engaged in a neces
sary agricultural enterprise.
Class 3 will include those exempt
ed in the first two classes, but will
exempt assistant farm managers,
farm foremen, etc., engaged in a
necessary agricultural enterprise.
Class 4 will include those exempt
ed in the first three classes, but will
exempt those engaged in a necessary
agricultural enterprise who are act
ing "in the capacity of sale man
aging, controlling and directing
head of the enterprise."
To emphasize the importance of
the farm in America's business of
war is to repeat what every one
knows. Every link in the great
chain from the farm to the battle
front must be without flaw. If one
link fails, all will fail. The farm .Is
the anchor link at the home end of
the chain and must bear all the
strain of the greatest effort Ameri
ca ever made. In view of the condi
tions as set forth in this article, what
do you find it possible to do to add
to the strength of the farm link in
the chain? Oregon Farmer, Decem
ber 25.

meals sour and turn into gas and

To-morrow morning, immediately
upon arising, drink a glass of hot
water with a teaspoonful of limestone:
phosphate in it. This is intended to
first neutralize and then wash out of
your stomach, liver, kidneys and
thirty feet of intestines v the Indi
gestible waste, poisons, sour bile and
toxins, thus cleansing, sweetening and
purifying the entire alimentary canal.
Those subject to eick headaches,'
backache, bilious attacks, constipation
or any form ol stomach trouble, are
urged to get a quarter pound of lime-,
stone phosphate from the drug store
and begin enjoying this morning inside-bath.
It is said that men and
women who try this become enthu
siastic and keep it up dally. It is a
splendid health measure for it is more
important to keep clean and pure on
the Inside than on the outside, because
the skin pores do not absorb impuri
ties into the blood, causing disease,
while the bowel pores do.
