It's tough, according to Ameri can standards, but let's not for get that's the way Genghis Khan iuid his Mongols lived. Their food and shelter standards were TER RIBLE in comparison with those of the armies they fought. But they WON THEIR BAT TLES. ENGHIS KHAN fed and slid- U terod his Mongol armies on unbelievably little, but Ills ARMA MENT and his TACTICS were beyond criticism. He was the world's first exponent at FIRE POWER, arming his soldiers with two bows, one! for : long range and one fur close range. His staff work was so careful and accurate that without radio or telegraph communication he could " start invading columns hundreds of miles apart and bring them out TOGETHER at the dcslrpd Junction point within a matter of hours of the time set. The Mongol's food habits con tributed to their effectiveness by minimizing enormously their problem of supply. SO far Washington's policy has been one uf consistent UN DERESTIMATION of the Jap. That policy brought us humiliat ing Pearl Harbor. Let's quit under estimating our Pacific enemy. JIMMY BYRNES (our new czar of all czars! tells his home town (Spartanshurg, S. C.) that "squabbling government agen cies" will In time be streamlined Into an efficient (home front I war machine. He says: "Your government has no right 1 to call an you to work as a team if it is not going to demand of government officials that THEY work as a team." He adds: "There have been controversies in government, but America's great armament production has demonstrated that these contro versies and their effect on the war effort have been exaggerat ed." He tells his home towners that our HUNIi:ElTHOCSANlTH plane since our war elfort began has just come off the assembly line, that 100 fighting ships have been finished in the first five months of 1913 and that our licet will be lKd'HLED in size this year: that we are building merchant ships Ft it'll TIMES as fast as they are being sunk. By Charles V. Stanton iMONCi recent purchasers of farm property in Douglas county " is a man from a midwestern state who has been a reader of ihe Koseburg News-Review for the past three years. Know ing that within a few years he would be retired on pension, this man started to seek the locality in which he desired to live after his period of employment had been terminated. He had de cided he would locate on the Pacific coast and had chosen sev eral areas as prospective locations. To determine the one of his choice, he subscribed for newspapers and read them care fully. I hrough this reading, Douglas county was the outstand ing favorite and now he is one of our residents. It s surprising how many people use newspapers as an aid in selecting the location for a home. The Ncws-Kevicw at the present time has 37 such homcseekcrs on its subscription list. 1 he number is below normal, for within six months, subscrip tion records show, nine News-Review readers, who received the paper in California, Minnesota, Illinois, Oklahoma and other states, have moved to Douglas county. A woman visiting from an adjoining state was in the office recently. we may decide to locate here," she said. "I want a copy of your paper to get the tone of your city." We thought her use of the word "tone" most apropos, for the meaning of the word, according to Webster, includes "trend, character or quality of morals, breeding, behavior." A newspaper, above rill else, accurately reflects these charac teristics. It is the tuning fork which vibrates in harmony with the "tone" of the community. 1 The homeseeker wants to know the quality of schools, the I number and kind of churches, the type of people, whether na- i live or foreign born; the business activity, whether the com-1 munity is industrial or agricultural, whether it is on an ascend ing or descending plane. Chamber of commerce literature can provide pictures and statistics, but only the newspaper can mirror the lives of the people. The weddings, births and funerals, the news of court pro ceedings, the church news, the society news, the industrial and business reports provide the homeseeker with the information he desires. These are items concerning people the people who will be his neighbors if he selects that particular locality in which his newspaper is published. After all, it is people who make a community, not farms and factories. Japs may predominate in a farming community. Foreign elements may operate fac tories. But scan the names in a newspaper and you can quickly form an opinion of the type of people who live in its trade territory. But there is one department in which responsibility for the true picture does not fall entirely upon the newspaper. Newspaper-reading homcscekers tell us that the advertising columns are read as religiously as the news columns, l lomescekers want o know that the merchants who will serve them are using mod- ijrn merchandising methods. They want to know they will have Uniplc stocks of merchandise from which to fill their needs. I hey well know the modern merchant should set aside a cer tain percentage of his sales to maintain an advertising budget. When a newspaper depicts the home-town merchant as being haphazard in his advertising, the homeseeker rigidly judges him to be haphazard in merchandising methods. On the other hand, well-executed and continuous advertising campaigns show healthy merchandising "tone" and are conducive to favor able opinion and action on the part of the homeseeker. A newspaper seriously accepts its responsibility as a minor of community lite, but it remains n fact that the newspaper is only a mirror. The community can only be reflected as it actually exists. 1 he newspaper's duty is discharged when a true and undistorted reflection is produced.

EDWARDS In the latter part of the fourth century of our era there was born a lad, w ho when six teen years of age. was taken as a captive to Ireland, where he was herd boy to a nalive chief for six years. 1 le had been reared in a Christian home, and he says that while in Ireland "The Lord opened my eyes to a sense of my un belief, and taught me lo re member my sin. and to be con verted lo the Lord w ith all my heart." He escaped from cap tivity and prepared himself for missionary work. Then a vision came to him and a voice summoned him to return to Ireland and preach the gospel there. His . parents opposi'd Ibis, but be went. The end of long years of work .pursued in the face of opposition and peril, saw Christianity estab lished throughout Ihe island, lie was laid lo resi, it is said, on March 17th. lio A. D. and so we do well to remember the sell sacritice of St. Patrick, "the apostle ol Ireland." So thoroughly did be live in the lives of thousands that this day is celebrated in loing memory of one who at all times anil everywhere gave his strength lo the weak, his sympathy to the Mittering. his substance to the poor, his heart to God. and thereby won a people to stand tor righteousness and truth.
