ELECTRICITY AND WAR A nationwide appeal to the elec trical Industry has been issued by Dr. Schuyler S. Wheeler, past presi dent of the American Institute of Electrical Engineers. "Never before In the history of thla country," Dr. Wheeler said, "has the electrical Industry beon called upon for greater service.' Germany has made this a war of steel and iron, a mechanical war; the United States will make It an electrical war. Every man connected with electrical industry is vitally Interested in the war, and the United States expects the electrical Inventors and engin eers to carry the Str.rs and Stripes to victory. "The country leads the world in the application of electricity to the arts of peace now it must l?ad in applying that great force to war. Here we have thous-mds of the beet trained and most active brains in the world engaged in electrical industry; thousands of universally used elec trical devices were invented hers Let these brains grapple with the problems of the war and it is likely that we shall see the appliance de veloped that will end the war. "We are starting our warlike pre parations for war years after the ether belligerents let us make speed, and through our Inventiveness bring about an early peace. The most deadly weapons of the war. such as the airplane and submarine, are American inventions let us make history repeat Itself, now that we are facing the vital necessity. One invention may save the lives of rcuuons of men who are soreiy needed to do the world's work. Let all American electricians, from the highest to the lowest, concentrate on aidlrg the government, now that the Vnited States is forced into the world war." ILLF.U.ITIMATE Pr.OFlTS OF THF. FOOD SPECVLATORS Among citizuate consumers of food, especially of bread staffs, therj is all but universal agreement that the ruling prices for the necessities of life in the United States do not originate from the legitimate play of the law of supply and demand. Flour and bread, tor example, are reported to sell more cheaply in submarine-bound London than in richly resourced Spokane. It Is the firm belief of the American public that the rapid and soaring ris? last winter and this spring in the cost of supplying the table Is owing to man ipulation and to speculators. Herbert C. Hoover and President tarreil or the O.-w. R & N. com piny conlna this opinion of the plain people. Mr. Hoover U quoted as declaring that there is no justifica tion for outrageous price. We now have and shall next year have a sur plus of food. Mr. Farrell is reported to believe that many Americans have become hysterical about the possibili- ties of a shortage in food and are wasting energy on effort at solving the problem. "There is no snse." he is credited with declaring, "in paying 13 for a bushel of wheat, when it sold last autumn for $110 Nothing of value has been added since It was harvested. Why is it necessary to pay 13? Speculation! It should be made a criminal offense to speculate in foodstuffs when the country Is at war." Mr. Farrell is right. When '. gresa can attend to this matter it should immediately do so. Mean- wnue jir. tioover makes a practic- able suggestion for patriotic and pub- 11. .... j lie spirited private citiiens in the food business. He says: "If the patriotic, able men repre senting the majority of each branch of the food trades wen clothed with . ..lu.ii w cio iu men; 1 . - am all minority of skunks that exit in every trade, an equally nutritious flour based on $1 5d wheat could be told at New York for a good deal under g a barrel.

That peace of the world was lord That never the roll of the drum cgain Should quicken the thirsty sword But our bubble broke with e sudden blow. And we heard like the trumpet's din That leveled the walls of Jericho The old stern cry "Fill in:" Not in the flush of a barren thrill Do we come to our deed a; last. We have weighed our will, we mut do our will. For the doubting time is p.-..t. We have faced our souls in the sleep less nights. And what shall we fear but sin? -,ul lur 11 11 ln? r,sn.

Courage is not fat bellied. Intellect caa not be fat headed. The otiose life find place in the adipose body. We should eat less and think more, have smaller girth and larger chests. ies on ice nips ana more on tu? thorax, have fewer potatoes at dinner nd more xks after dinner more "wis and less chewing, A strong person can subsist on a litt!e oatmeal and philosophy and wntwalk, outtalk. outthink and In f every way outdo the person who travels the long route from soup to nuts and goes to sleep afterward as an anaconda full of sheep or monkeys might. Life is a lean affair of hungry ap petites and ambitions. They are best kept hungry. Then they stimulate to earnest performance. The fat bellied man does nothing but eat and sleep. We cannot support Esau any longer. The god of the American nation Is not its belly. It Is a god of muscle, with strong lines in its visage and determination in its body expression The regulation of the American nation begin; at the dinner table. We need stoutness in soul, not stout nesa in fat. Eat leas and do more. Grow more above the neck and lesi below the stomach. Dinner table reform will preserve I the food aunnlT n TK.a.r -r m ttiA mnl. " " ' ueip ice national courage and pat things over. Chicago Tribune.
