D 61. This paper has enlisted with the government in the cause of America for the period of the war.............. WHAT YOU SAY. Whnt result from what you say la ijo. ■ important than what you mean I what you say, says Chicago News. Thus in everyday language may be ex pressed the theory on which the United States department of justice bases Its claim that more rigorous federal statutes are necessary in order that propaganda injurious to the conduct of the war may be successfully com bated. A memorandum of the depart ment says: “All questions of motive should be most carefully excluded from those provisions of the statute under which the more subtle, dangerous and effective types of antiwar propaganda will have to be fought.” It is pointed out that the practice of courts in the Interpretation of war statutes is to in struct juries “to be careful and not mix motive with intent.” This is clear. It means putting acts of the civilian pop ulation on practically the same basis as acts of the military, when those acts bear upon the success or Injury of the conduct of the war. The sleeping sen try is seldom—almost never—guilty of Intent to help the enemy kill his soldier comrades. And there are civilians thoroughly sincere In their affection for America and possessed of profound hatred for Prussianlsm who let their tongues wag. who prattle and proclaim things helpful to the enemy. The rea soning of the department of Justice Is that the one who is unintentionally pro-German must be held responsible without relation to motive, precisely as the army holds responsible the sen try who did not mean to go to sleep on duty. “America, the melting pot”—much had been written about that pot, and then the war. And when the war came we found our admirable pot not so admirable; somehow or other the crucible had failed to work. Nor was It the fault wholly of the newcomer from Europe. Largely It was the fault of those whose fathers had fought to preserve the Union and whose fore fathers had fought to establish It, says Washington Herald. The pot was here all right, but those who for gen erations had boasted themselves Amer icans had failed to build a fire under it Instead they had bullded each his own selfish fire. Love of the common country, the cherishing and developing of the principles and ideas for which historically America stands, were out of fashion. What could the newcom er learn of our Ideals when we our selves had forgotten them? Major Bishop, the Canadian aviator, has been appointed (<• the admfnistra- tlve air board in London. When he left the front and received his Victoria cross some months ago, after shooting down nearly fifty German planes and two balloons, it was supposed that his days as a fighting aviator at the front were over; but he went to France again as the commander of a new Brit ish squadron and Is reported to have added to his string of victories. Major Bishop won distinction by his combina tion of bravery with coo! caution. His victories were due not to reckless risk, but to painstaking intelligence. He has now reached the highest post at tainable by a British war aviator. Somebody says rats will not stay in a room where mosquitoes are. AVell, mosquitoes won’t stay in a room where bats are and bats won't stay where rats are, so what are we going to do about It! "CAREERS FOR OIRLS." Already It sounds old-fashlonetl to refer to “carvers for girl»." since vir tually all careers are now for girls. Instead of the quest being f'r Jobs, the Jobs are looking for the girls, says Kansas City Star. A potash produc ing company hits been hunting high and low for a woman competent to test the daily output, weighing and other wise computing the quality. Salaries in the new fields of work are generally higher than those in the old. The dressmaker, schoolteacher, stenogra pher, newspaper woman, saleswoman, waitress, and garment milker are not receiving much more than they did five years ago Even the woman lawyer and the woman doctor may not find themselves prepared to raise their fees materially, but the munitions worker, the electrician, all workers in indus trial plants are paid the same salaries men formerly were paid. It Is an era of prosperity for women and the old reasons why girls leave home do not compare with the new war reasons. “The pathetic part of It is," said a Kansas City man the other day. “that they never will go back home again— to stay. What is to become of the homes! Wil! there be Any! And yet I cannot blame the women. They had the worst of It. It has been a man’s world. Now I very much fear it is going to be a woman's world.” The peasants In Russia will probably never lose the land. Frederic C. Howe writes in New Republic. For tn ev ery country in Europe In which the land has been distributed, distribution has remained intact. The French rev olution distributed the land among the French peasants. There have been monarchies and reactions since then, The Bourbons nnd Napoleon came back. But the land never went back. And the essentia! democracy of France has never changed from a democracy of peasant owners. The same Is true of Holland. Switzerland and Denmark. Once destroyed, feudalism cannot come back. And when destroyed, the feudal classes lose their political power be cause their economic power Is- gone. The only aristocracies In Europe that exercise any material Influence in the politics of their states are those aris tocracies that have clnng to th<-'r ’’ feudalestates, 'ad weir !y expect th ’ iu Rus sia. The German foreign minister In his rqjent speech, shifted the blame for the beginning of the war from England back to Russia, the original goat. Hymns of hate were dropped long ago. so the Huns must have concluded that policy is not a paying one. and that there is no use in irritating more than is possible an enemy who will have a great deal to say about peace terms when the time for making peace comes Russia being down and out, more or less laid upon her will not mntter, and such a little matter as consistency and truth never did trouble Teutonic psychology. There Is a pathetic note of human In terest In the Information that only wives, mothers and sisters of soldiers are making gas masks for the Amer ican army. This precaution of love In the work has made the entrance of treachery In the slightest degree hu manly Impossible. A lady writes that men are taking en tirely too keen an Interest in feminine j wearing apparel. We think so, too; but so long as ladies wear the kind | of clothes that are In fashion now it is simply Impossible to keep masculine attention diverted. U 3 DEPT or AGRICULTURE MOW TO SWEET CORN Successful home canning of sweet corn depends upon careful selection of tender, juicy corn In the tnllk stage.

All Jara showing slightest sign of leaks must be refitted with rubber ami re- processed. Usually a better-flnvored finished corn product can be obtained by drying the corn instead of canning It.—United States Department of Agriculture.
