WAR AND INDUSTRY :
Om ot the first questions that
eomaa with tha knowledge that war
la all bat Inevitable ia how buainese
and industry will he affected. The
call ot the country haa first place,
cot Industry alto most be protected
or the country could not prosecute a
aneceesfnl campaign against an an
tagonist Foodstuffs must be provid
ed and the farms must he made to
produce without a decrease ot the
staples. Factories must , continue to
operate, and transportation Unea will
find the business that cornea to them
Tastiy increased because ot the rat-
flo la war auppliea and troops. Pre
paredness tor war means not only
the training of men ia the tactica of
war. In the shooting ot cannon and
the manning of dreadnaughts or sub
marines, hut It means also mobilisa
tion of tha forces ot Industry. This
ia tha second line ot defense and
stands back of the military arm of
the serrice.
. Looked at from its local aspect,
It would Indicate that war should
make bo material difference In the
prosecution of the various projects.
More effort will he required to main
tain the farm and the mill and the
railroad, for many men skilled In
the various callings will take their
places In the ranks of the army and
the nary. These vacancies In In
dustry must be met by those now
unemployed, and possibly women will
find a new sphere in Industrial ac
tivity. The coming of war will no doubt
eanse a greater activity In the copper
and chrome mines of Josephine coun
ty because of the demand for those
minerals, both of which are essential
In manufacture of munitions. This
should demand the pressing forward
of the building of the new railroad
with renewed activity, and especially
would there be need for these lines
connecting the Inland with the sea.
AMERICA'S PATRIOTS
The patriots are not always found
at the front in war time. Back In
tie fields and factories are patriots
Who are doing their part. Perhaps
"Incapacitated for active duty In the1
' 'battle line because of age or of in
'flrmlty, men who are thrilled wlth:
tha patriotic love of the country must
be left behind to prosecute a duty
Just as essential In the winning of
wars. Women, than whom no one
gives more In times when souls are'
tried, will have a part In bringing
success to the stars, and stripes that ;
will redound to their glory Just as!
much as though they were In the
trenches. America Is a nation of pa
triots, but not all can serve where
the smoke of burning powder fills
tha sir. ' I

The aura and atrlpea are found dis
played in practically every business
house In Grants Pass, and from hun
dreds ot residences the emblem ot
national freedom and justice greet
tha eye. The spirit ot patriotism that
ia strong in every quarter doea not
in any sense Indicate a desire tor
war with Germany, but It doea Indi
cate tha tact that the American peo
ple are to he found lined up solidly
behind the president In the defense
ot national honor. ' The people are

NEW PEACE KOVE
London, April 4. A new peace
move by the centra! powers, fore
casted in extracta from the semi-of
ficial newspaper, the Lokal Antelger,
carried In United Press dispatches
yesterday, has been forced by Aus
tria's demands, according to Ger
man information received by way
of Holland today.
The declaration waa made In theaa
dispatches that In the forthcoming
announcement, Germany would make
a "worth-while offer." Presumably
In the belief of close observers of
German and Austrian conditions, the
Teutonic officiate now realise they
must now make great concessions
from tha attitude adopted In tha
previous peace feeler.
According to the German belief, a
peace offer at this time would appeal
particularly to the new Russia, now
re-organising, and now anxious to
transfer Its activities and energies
from the work of war to the work
of re-construction.

AT
mm of age
Washington, April 4. On tha
verge ot war, at sixty years ot age,
President Wilton la in perfect physi
cal trim. To tha casual observer,
ha looki about til years old. and
he acta the part. Exercise and re
laxation In the open air. sunshine
constantly employed, particularly in
times ot great stress, are largely re-
tuonstble.
Br. Car Grayson, the president's
friend and private physician, haa
ulaved a prominent Pan In keeping
the president strong and well. When
ever a danger signal Is flashed along
the president's system. Grayson
"catches tt."
On- theaa occasions tha president
Is sent to bed to rest and keep there
under orders.
He and Grayson may always be
seen totether when some interna
tional difficulty haa been encounter
ed. They may either play golf to
gether, or ride about the Washington
drtvea, swapping stories. Ia this the
president revels as a relaxation and a
favorite diversion ot such drives Is
viewing In the gentle art of rhyme
and Jingles.
As tor every day life, the pres
ident's habits are extremely regular
He keeps appointments with himself
with the same "strict accountabil
ity" as he does with callers. He
haa breakfast In his room, luncheon
Is always at 1 o'clock on the dot
and 7 o'clock dinner Is the rule.
By holding to these tew simple
rules ot living, the president finds
himself a war president physical
ly and mentally fit to cope with the
big problems ahead.

Granta Pass women know how tha
aches and palna that often come when
the kidneys fail make life a burden
Backache, hip pains, headachea, dlaty
spells, distressing urinary troubles,

neys and should be checked In time.
Dosn's Kidney Pills are for the kid

great deal of backache. At times I
could hardly get about, aa my toack
felt so weak and lame. Doan's Kid
ney Pills soon overcame that misery
and made my back feel as strong as
ever. Now whenever I am In need
of a kidney medicine I take Doan's
Kidney Pills snd they never fall to
do me good."
