I will work, I will i save, I will sacrifice, I will en- dure, I will fight cheerfully and to my utmost as If the outcome of tbe struggle depends upon me alone." FOOD JTJCKH IN EUROPE. Take a large cake of Ice and bold It against tbe back of your neck. It will keep you from getting hot under the collar. The following Is a vindication of the government, which allows food to be sold to the alll-s at lower prices than obtained here. Mauy people have got mal at the president and admin istration for permitting It, but they should really give the policy their hearty endorsement. A weekly wage of 40 shillings Is thought good pay for a skilled work man In England, where salaries are lower than here. It amounts to $10 a week. Offer It to a city sewer-dlgger In America and he will faint. Yet British workmen, for this all surd (to us) salary, have been help Ing In various ways. For a long time they have been building 150 aero planes a day, against 35 or 40 combat planes shipped by us in a year. In other wordu, llrltlhli workmen, start ing at 7 a. in., could have quit at 10 on the same morning and rented tor a year. They would have built 40, our first year's shipment; but they kept right on, and supplied our army us well as theirs. Most of the ships that carried our nrmy to Kurope were British.. The British workmen built and manned them for a newsboy's Income, and we should not begrudge him a slight reduction on pork and beans. KIWHING. ' It Is not entirely our own fault that we g'.'l false estimates of public men. What they do most conspicuously Is generally what matters least. How many public men have you seen In the flosb? Two? Six? A dozen? What was each of them do ing at the time? Hiding In a parade, or laying a cornerstone? And when Is a man more Ubeles than when pa rading or cornerstonlng? As a rule we la Asbland don't see our public mi-o at all, but we hear I hern splash. Wo read about their noteworthy act Miles.

They were impor tant when no one heard of them ex cept their fellow townsmen who laughed at them for trying to make a bird out of a gas engine. Struggling obscurely against prejudice was thel Important work. After, recognition came any one could carry it on. A picture of an Innlgnif leant book keeper at his desk would not be very different from a picture of General Pershing tolling through reams of typewritten records concerning trans portation and commlsarlat.

Phone 188 trading everything that can possibly be entrusted to subordinates, try to estimate how much he has to do. A bronze statue of him accomplish ing the prosaic routine work that cul minuted in his tremendous victories would be a faithful likeness, but it wouldn't be worth looking at as h work of art. We have grown so familiar with his numo that we take him for granted and fall to appreciate the magnitude of our debt to him. On the fruits of his labor depended Europe's estimate of America, and he has had counties opportunities of bungling. Lack of imagination has spared us the tension of suspense, hut now that the crisis Id paHt we should draw a breath of re' lief and thank heaven that Persuln? had the Job, TRACTORS FOR RENT. In communities like Ashland we understand co-operation better than they do In the large cities. In popu lous centers they combine In groups only, whereas In less congested areas the whole neighborhood forms a fed eration. It Is simply a sum In proportion. At the North Pole community Ufa reach es the Ideal. One explorer co-operates with another. They have no one else to talk to. They share each other's canned beef and save each other' lives. New York is the opposite extreme. TImto they split up Into llttla cotorlea an '1 each small clique Is a stranger to the others. We In Ashland rise above New York conditions, but we have not nearly, attained the spirit of frater nity that Is Imparted by the Arctic shows. Other centers are more to blame than ours. Last season many thous ands of acres of wheat growing lond were not sown because it was difficult to get the fall plowing tlono.

Register your answer to this alternative by Increasing your sub scription to the Fourth Liberty Loan.

But it has been proved that many tractors that could have done the work with k help were allowed to stand Idle. In Pennsylvania farmers owning trac tors rent them out tt from $3.50 to $5 an acre, which can hardly be call ed unreasonable; but they didn't do it enough In Pennsylvania and else where. Community folks should get to gether more, In regard to many things besides tractors. Let's g;t ac qualnted. HOW A MAX OF 4.1 MAY GET READY FOR THE Ali.MV V You men of 45, or near ing It, who have been talking cheerfully of what you would do for t'nele Sam If you were a young fellow, may be giv en your chance under the new draft. No matter If you have spent yearf In an office, at a store or at a desk, no matter If you are decidedly over weight or decidedly under weight, it your heart Is sound, you are material for the army. The training you will get In the service. In a great major ity of cases, will correct the other lit tle defects. But you can Imagine how tough !t will be on you to go from your lon established habits of ease to the rig ors of camp life. There's n Way Out. Without any preparation for the ordeal, you probably would want to curl up In a corner and die after your first day as a rookie. So take the tip of Dr. C. W. Ba3ett, physical di rector of the Missouri Athletic asso ciation, telling how to get ready for the army. No training schedule could be de vised to fit all cases, but here is one requiring only three weeks to put a man In the 40's in shape to take the soldier's oath and enter on the sol dier's routine with no mors physical discomfort or mental unrest than the youngster experiences. Un8er this schedule rise at !i:30 In the morning and retire at 9 at night. First Week. Monday After rising drink a glass of milk and eat a few crackers.

IX PARIS The Increased number of American women going overseas with relief or ganizations has made it necessary for the American Y. W. C. A. to take over a large house, one block from Hotel Petrograd, the Y. W. C. A. hostess house in Paris, for additional housing space. Croups of 40 and 50 Red Cross nurses, canteen and social workers have had to be turned away from the hotel almost dully for lack of space during the past two months. Hotel Petrograd, which was open ed In December for the purpose of caring for these American women while they were awaiting orders to their posts, has accommodations for 200 women, and has become the American center In, Paris. The new- annex will be Just a rooming house. There will also be a tea room. French people are no longer allow ed to get any meal, save tea, at the Petrograd, as the dining room Is not large enough to accommodate all of the American men and women who throng there for American cooked meals. Frequently the line extends from the dining room door througn the lobby of the hotel. Concerts and lectures by famous allied countries are daily events at musicians, authors, and writers of the the Petrograd. Miss Mury George White, of Baltimore, is director of the hotel. i J.
