THURSDAY, JU.VR 1, 101 DON'T LOOK FOB PRAISE. Uncle Sam asks us to save In order to help win the war to save so that we can help finance the lighting, so that we can help prevent the need less diversion of men and money from fighting industries to indus tries that deal In non-essentials. We do it at least some of us do It to ntint and then we act, deep down Inside anyway as though we had done something mat naoj earn A,t no a hero medal of some kind. Have you really stopped to think what, a lake that Is? Have you real ly thought how absurd It Is when we take It that way ana oegin 10 resu up with pride over our patriotic sac rifice? Here is what it comes to: When Uncle Sam asks us to save to help win the war, In effect he asks us to lay up a little something for a rainy day or for dependent old age. He asks us to moderate our pace, to get down to plain living, to cut out frills that lose us sleep and strength and health, to quit a foollBh competition In spending that frazzles our nerves, shatters our peaco of mind, and, sends contentment shrieking out of our lives. He asks us to save up a little store that we can use either to shel ter us from the wintry blasts or im pecunious old age or, if wo please, spend lu one shot that will really get ua something when tho storm of wai ls over a coveted car, a building Bite, that "home of our own," a trip to the battlefields of Europe. He aBks us to save to help win the war; but that means that ho asks us to form the habit of thrift, which we were In danger of forgetting or, In deed, had forgotton. Ho asks us to stop shooting our money to tho birds, reckless of the futuro nnd Its bris tling storehouse of consequences. He asks us to apportion our income be tween a reasonable, decent living and a savings fund. Ho asks us to put that savings into war sav!ngB stamps and llborty bonds. He asks us, that thoro may bo food) onough for our fighting men and their allies, to quit stuffing ourselves as though we were being fattened for the table nnd to choke off the gnrbage barrel's fat supply; and when we obey, we benefit our purses and our healths. In short, when Undo Snm asks us to save to help win the war, he aska UB to do ourselves a great favor; and yet, simply bocnuso the need is great and the appeal urgent, and be cause tho nation pleads with us to do this simple thing, we nre prone to look upon It as a great favor to the country, nnd to stick feathers In our hats and go strutting around because we granted It. It's patriotic, all right. It helps thri countr) not only now, but later; not only for the war, but for the trial of national fiber that comes aftor tho war but It helps ub even more. And It Is so easy, so much more helpful to ourselves than to tho coun try, so small a thing to do compared with what our boys in arms nro do ing, that It really Is a joke to pin roses on ourselves for doing It. We ought to do It. Wo must do It. But Instead of expecting Uncle Sam to decorate us for heroism, we ought to got on our Isneos and thank him for tho opportunity of Retting a little sound sense pounded into us at last. And that goes as io tho avor age Individual, and na to tho nation and people aB a wholo. The liquor interests of the nation are still determined In tholr efforts to convince the public tho president and congress that to carry on the war to a successful end thoro must he a certain amount of booze maim-1 factured. There's only ono way to! kill off this liquor agitation until the end of the war and thut Is to! choke tho very llfo out of tho "wot", pilomotors. The world is too busy' with Important problems to waste any time on booze peddlers and aa tills particular liquid is not a war i necessity why not dismiss the whole proposition by stopping its manufac ture until we win tho war and for ever thereafter. A WOMAN'S SHOP FOR WOMAN'S WEAR We CatertoYourWants and specialize to meet the de mands of our army of customers THE BELLOWS STORE THE LADIES' EXCLUSIVE Remember that national war sav ings day Is June 28. Pledge yourself on or before that day to save to the utmost of your ability and to buy war savings stamps that there may be more money, labor, andl materials to back up tliose who fight and die for you. If you want to chloroform your business quit advertising. It don't take long to "sink out of sight" and the business man who nover adver tises his wares is giving the mall order house the long end of the game. With Pennsylvania and other east ern states clamoring for a compulsory labor law, the hobo, like the young man and the Star of Empire, will have to keep moving westward.
