Inventors Muwt (Jet Ituny To Meet
NeeHlv Children Muitt IH
Their Part Too
(By Doratha A. Christianl, age ten.)
In order tor a country to win the
war it has to have three things and
that Is money, men and sense.
There is different ways to get
money. For the Red Cross work
people give money. The women and
girls can help by sewing and knit
ting. Women and men that don't
have anything to keep them at home
can go as doctors and nurses.
People give money to the Y. M. C.
A. and this society helps make the
soldiers better men.
Our country sells Liberty Bonds
for money to carry on the war.
Another way Uncle Sam gets the
money is to put a revenue on some
things.
Children could do their part by
giving some ot their savings.
To fit; lit a battle, a country has to
have soldiers. Our country has vol
unteers and then if they dou't have
enough they draft.
Theres other soldiers besides the
olios that shoot guns. And that is
the nurses, doctors and the people
at home that do their part.
The people In the United Stutos
that are helping Germany should be
punished worse than they huve been
but it takes spies to find out who
these traitors are , and the older
school children might help in that
way as well as the citizens.
We can see now better than ever
what good schools are. One ot the
important things that you learn at
school as well as at home is to obey.
A battle could not be won if the
soldiers did not obey orders.
Suppose the soldier would have
to shoot the enemy and a mountain
was between them, some officers
wouldn't know what to do unless
they had had proper training.
Our big schools put out many
trained men and one good thing Is
most of them are patriotic.
The war calls for Inventions.
When the enemy invents something
better than what we have, it's our
inventors' place to put on their
thinking caps and get busy. This
need of new things will result In
finding new inventors. Many Amer
icans are not slow along this line.
Some people think that the war
will be won by famine. Food is the
most important thing in the war and
It's the farmers' place to provide it.
America has to feed the allies but
she can't do it if the families waste
food.
Mr. Hoover wants the people at
home to eat the food that don't keep
very long bo meat, flour and such
things can be sent to the Allies. He
has also taught us how to save and
substitute. Children can do their
part by eating what's' placed before
them, and not complaining.
Next year the food question will
be just as important as it is this
year and for that reason the farmer
should be making his plans this fall.
He wants to do all the plowing that
he can this fall but do not harrow
it till spring so that the ground will
drink up more moisture and the
freezing and thawing will break up
the clods and also kill the insects.
Children can help more with food
than in any other one way because
they can raise gardens, chickens,
turkeys, geese, ducks, calves, sheep,
pigs, horses, etc.
There are many herbs that have
been shipped here from the old
country to be used for medicine. As
many of these grow wild here,
children can gather them.
In a way they can take the place
of the men when help is scarce.
