;JU)AFINQ IS MURDER
"Any man who loafs on his job,
who does not do an honest day's
work six days a week, does so at the
cost of the Mood of the boys over
there."
This Is pretty strong language, but
It comes from authority. It was ut
tered by Lewis B. Franklin, national
director of the war loan organiza
"Of every fS earned in this coun
try this year, f 2.30 will be needed by
the United States government to pay
Its war bill, and the government has
got to get it," said Mr. Franklin
"Men who work three days a week
and loaf the rest of the time cannot
understand what it means for any
person in this country not to do an
honest day's work sis days a week.
"What it means is that some boy
Bow over there is not coming back.
It means, lengthening the .war, aad
needless lengthening of the war
means the loss of lives, . additional
suffering and greater cost to the nation."
Mr. Franklin urges against over-
confidence because of the late good
news. ' Germany still has 8,000,000
' men under arms, and the lines are
nearer Paris now than they were a
year ago. "The man who is preach
ing the near ending of the war is not
helping the situation. I do not be-
, lieve for one moment that the fourth
Liberty loan Is going to be the laat
one." .
The way to speed up the winning
, of the war is by Increased produc
tion In every line. And the only way
to increase production is by work.
Six full days of honest' work every
week fronT every wan nd woman In
the country will wfn the war.
But the man or Woman who loafs
la guilty of the blood of the nation's
boys, : if -rrr .

tration of Belgium ha seen fit to
Impose upon that suffering land.
it is not to be wondered at that a
feeling of confidence and good will
exists between the Inhabitants and
their British friend. The popula
tlon of Palestine has good reason for
being pro-British and pro-Ally In Its

If th Germans were given to read

STANDARD OIL COr.PANY
The local yards of the Standard
Oil company have lately undergone
some Improvements in the way of a
fine blue grass lawn and painting.
The company's station hero, under
the management of C. D. Flea, now
presents a fine appearance, every
thing being as neat as a pin and pre
cautions being taken to check all
wasteage. In fact the motto of the
Standard OH company . Is "Save
everything" and they come very near
doing it. Mr. Fies estimates that the
wasteage in handling their goods is
less than one-half of one per cent.
The company has three storage
tanks here, each holding about 18,-
000 gallons. In these are kept Pearl
oil, gasoline and distillate. The new
'supply tanks are spotted by the train
In front of the company's yard, and
It requires about two and half hours
to pump a 10,000-gaIIon tank of oil
into the large storage tanks. In the
office Mr. Fies has a fine display of
all the goods handled locally, and
which are distributed over the city
by the company's delivery wagon.
It Is worth any business man's
time to take a trip to one of the
Standard OH company's yards for the
purpose of seeing how extra precau
tions are taken to giurd against
waste,' and then applying the rule to
their (own business.
