as "it can't be done" in a city
that woks to do things. We let
things drift too much in the small
community. We ieel the public
pulse pressing against activity
and we become inactive. This
results in btagnation, discontent
and a weaning away from the
territory surrounding us and the
town's business gels a damage
that it requires much constructs

0U& BOYS IN i'&ANCE
The following editorial taken
from "Plane .News," the only
A. IS. l' newspaper edited by
soldiers, passed ny lite censor
and printed on French soil, shows
the feeling of our boys over there
regarding our work here.
"The success of the Third
Liberty Loan shows that at last
the Nation is aroused to the high
pi ten oi enthusiasm that is so
necessary to successfully carry
on the war. Many of us hero re
member all too well the apparent

seemed to prevail last summei
among a large majority of the
public. It is refreshing to lei
and know that the folks buck
home are now throwing then
best efforts into tbo numerous
tasks that must bo done ami

comfort and done quickly,
"We have teamed up with
Fauce and England and must
