It Is an intensely dramatic scene at the army encampments when the violating all law, treaties and agrees menta. i All human relations are dependent on the honorable keeping of pledges. Thus the community should be bet ter equipped with medical skill than ever before, even if many of the stu dents go into the trenches. COXCEXTKATIXG BUSIXESS. One of the causes of high cost dis tribution Is the unnecessarily large number of small . stores. When a man doubles his business he does not usually double his expenses or any where near it. Consequently as a business grows It can afford to sell cheaper. The way for a man to get that growth Is to advertise, to tell people about bis trade, about his goods, his bargains and point of view. It Is hard to find a well-advertised busl- tention to us and the world will re-iber, wa tremnnilouslv enthusiastic The neoDle who say Germany has gard our talk as bluff. If we had 8bout Ashland.

With the protections devised by modern science, 'the death rate of our soldiers will be comparatively low. Those who stay at home have by will see and thoroughly realize that it Is better policy to keep agreements. PROTECTIXG OUR CITIZEN'S.

Only those who do this have any conception of the moaning of this hour, fiod help such to be strong. When the boys come back as we trust they will, the crown of glory and honor will be one that Is never acquired In the unherolc paths of peace. KEEPING TRKATir:S. Prominent among the causen of the war which the government wishes em phasized by all who discuss current events. Is the matter of keeping and breaking of treaties. As was clearly set. forth by President Wilson in his note to the pope, our people can place no faith In the word of the present rulers of Germany. It Is of no use to make peace agreements with people who will not keep agreements. The German government, when It violated the neutrality of nelglum, expressly admitted that It was violat ing Inte'rnatlonal law. It excused It on the excuse, as Kaiser William said In his letter to President Wilson, that It was necessary on "strategical ground" ' According to that prlnci lle any agreement whatever could be violated for the reason that It would be advantageous to one of the parties to bneak Jt Germany also knows perfectly well that when she sinks our jhlps and murders our citizens she Is not buy them except at high prices It Is a common sight in the apple growing sections to see a lot of wind fall fruit, with considerable food value, rotting away on the ground. Many other kinds of food are allowed to go to waste because help costs too high to pick them. Also this Is a year when, owing to high price of grains, many farmers have sold their hogs and cattle, which formerly made productive use of a great deal of garden and orchard products otherwise wasted. In some places the Boy Scouts have been set at the useful task of picking Just what we are fighting for, The first end in view is to protect our citizens. Our people have been foully' murdered while exercising their right to traverse the hlghseaa.
