Most thriving small towns owe their progress to the support that ts given their retail stores by the sur rounding community. In saying this we do not urge or cry set ou r readers to patronise their local stores if they can do better elsewhere. W e appre ciate the fa ct that you want good goods and good service along with a fair price. I f your local merchants do not deserve your trade on this basis it is only natural to expect you to trade outside your home town.

Would it be easier or wiser far this country single-handed to resist a German Empire, flushed with victory and with great armies and navies at Ha command, than to unite with the bravo enemies o f that Empire in ending now and fo r all time this menace to our future? Prim arily, than, every man who croesm the ocean to fight on foreign •oil against the armies o f the Ger man Emperor goes forth to fight for his country and far the preservation o f those things for which our fore fathers were willing to die. To those who thus offer themselves we owe the same debt that we owe to those men who in the pest fought on American soil in the cause o f liberty. No, not the seme debt, but a greater one. It calls fo r more patriotism , more self-denial, and a truer vision to wage war on distant shores than to repel an invader or defend one’s home.
