Since Mazola is a vegetable oil it enables

economical than the old cooking mediums, too.
Get Mazola from your grocer in pint,

312 CASCADE AVE. PHONE 1394
At noon yesterdav, and for an hour
before, Vancouver barracks poured a
steady stream tf olive-drab through
the entrance of the Heilig theatre,
until each feat was held by a soldier
otticers and men who came to hear
Harry Lauder speak of the world war.
Pipers skirled airs of the highlands,
their.shakoed heads nodding with the
brave vehemence of the tunes. The
drummer, in his leopard skin, twirled
his wrists to the thunder that ran
through the old airs. Then they sw ung
to "Tipperary," to "Marching Through
Georgia," aiid to '-Yankee Doodle,"
with an accompaniment of cheers.
There was Harry standing before
them, as the last piper tiled into the
wings. He twinkled at them, stepped
forward and raiBed his hand to check
the applause. They were silent before
the man who had given his son to the
common cause. He jested with them.
"1 hope you don't want me to sing
and dance for you today," laughed
Harry. "I hope you are not all Scotch,
for a Scotchman always wants some
thing for nothing.and usually gets It."
The soldiers laughed with him.
But there was little of the comic in
the swift, moving address that fol
lowed, and. for all thol iifc avc Harry
Lauder srot good measure in return -
for time and again they ihouted their
approval or capped his vehement con
viction with outbursts ot handclap
nini?.
From the Scotch comedian's address
to the soldiers of the Northwest stand
forth two integral factors - that it is a
hnrh unvilege to tight for treeiiom.
and that hatred, consuming and im
nlacable. is the due of the hun until
victory is achieved for democracy.
"Well, now," began Harry, with the
burr of Scotland clinging to his talk,
"1 have been on this coast for three
weeks, and 1 have met nothing else
but an absolute, immediate resrxwse
I'm expecting the same thing today.
"I'm awfully glad mv audience is
enmnosed mostly of soldiers, because
I am here to add my word against any
thinir and everything that is gome to
imneile victory for the United States,
All along the line 1 have insisted that
the soldier shall have all the assistance
the civil population can give him,
"Yet, farther from the battle front,
I have found a spirit of carelessness.
We want to be inoculated with the se
rum ot' sacrifice. We want to remem
ber today that we are citizens of i
ureat nation, and that you are what
vour!forefathers made you, freemen !
"Does not the word thrilLyou?" he
asked. "It does me - to know that 1
am a freeman and that 1 will never in
any degree bow to Prussian miiitary
rule! No man should lose his liberty
but with his life. If there is a nation
that should right for liberty, it is the
United States, because thut is your
symbol."
' At the entrance to America, sidd
Harrv. stands a gigantic ligure of
promise the Statue of Liberty rep
rehentative of all that America litters
in iimortunitv and ideals.
"Men." he charged, "don't let yon
big statue crumble down into the sea
Liberty is the best word in any Ian
guage. Liberty consists of respect for
the riirhts of others,
He made a parable of an experience,
a talk he once had with a life-prisoner,
whose sentence had been commuted
and who saw, for the first time, the
prospect of fields and water, and open
uluces beyond the walls of his prison
because his liberty was before him.
"Kut the dull gray walls we stand
behind today," sa'd Lauder, "are walls
of cannon - cannon of the allies - and
behind those gray walls are the best
and bravest men the world has ever
seen."
Lamplighters of freedom, firemen of
civilization, we are in the great war
declared the comedian, holding a trust
so hitrh that the children of men who
fall, of men who return, will feel pride
in the sacrilice of their fathers,
"So that when the generations come
after us," he said, "they will be able
to walk erect, with smiles on their
faces, and say. 'My dad lit that lamp
Aye, and you're firemen, too. The
world is on tire. Men, make no bones
of nutting that fire out! Put it out as
black as night!
"Don't let us be war-weary, boys!
he urged, his voice vibrant. "The
man that stays at home, as well as the
so dier.has a great responsibility hang
imr on his shoulders. He has asked
you to go and defend him, and he must
look after you.
"We mustn't take our bank roll and
say, 'I'll see what I can do.' Ah, no
We mustn t see what we can do- we
must do! Do our best, our very best,
When a soldier is ordered over the tori
he doesn't say. 'Well, I'll see what I
can do.' Ah, no! he does it-and he
can't do aiw more than lay down his
life.
"So, I tell them, when you're asked
for a war necessity, don't take out
your roll and look at it; don't measure
it by the lives of splendid men. Be
cause Uod is a God of justice, and he
will see us through!"
In the Scripture, said Harry Lauder,
his' voice taking on new enthusiasm,
j tenseness, is an admonition to love
thy neighbor, He did not wish to de
! clare his disbelief in it, an excellent
' commandment, but he asserted that
; some were beyond the pale of love,
j human or divine.
i "Yes, men, but I believe that God
j does not expect us to love his ene
jmies!" exclaimed Harry. "If the
j kaiser isn't an enemy of God I don't
i know. So we won't love the hun.
; We'll take him on his evidence, and
we'll risk the rest.
"The kaiser is no friend to anybody.
! When aman ceases to respect his fel
: low man I don't see how he can have
any respect for God Almighty! I don't
i see it. It's impossible to me. The
j kaiser is going down to the very depths
of abomination.
"The wake of the hun is abominable
desolation !" he shouted. "He knows
no mercy! No mercy prevails with the
hun. I often wonder does he expect to
get any when the time comes.
Where there were villages in France
there is no longer any habitation,
nothing but waste and ruin to mark
the spot of happy homes, said Harry.
He had seen them, had marveled, as
he hated, at the thoughroughness of
devastation.
"These towns don't exist today,"
he said. "They bave betp wiped off
wnicn estness, "that is the enemy you re up
Harry ; against. He knows no mercy. And
when 'you re over there, and in a uer
man dugout, should you see a fountain
pen, don't touch it! Don't touch anything."
As he passed through one captured
trench, related Lauder, his coat caught
ou a nail and tore the fabric. "This
very coat 1 have on," he -amplified.
Turning to an otHcer he asked why the
nail was not driven in, out of harm s
way.
Uh, no, the officer declined. We
did knock one in about two weeks ago,
just over the line there, andwe buried
.2 of our men.
There isn't anything too hellish for
the hun," exclaimed Harry, as he cau
tioned against nail driving in rantntetl
trenches. "The 'F.oche, the French
man calls him. I rail him the vandal,
the raper of women, the murderer, de
stroyer of old men and boys.
When you are over there you will
see, as 1 did, little boys with ttieir
right hands cut off. And when you'
ask them who did it. they will tell you
the Germans did, and when vou ask
them why. they will say: 'So I will
never be able to lift my hand against
Germany.'
1 used to sit bv the tire and talk
with my lad, before " his voice
wavered, "before he went back to the
trenches again. 1 asked him to tell
me of these things.thcse unbelieveable
things."
Before Harry Lauder s son went
back to the trenches, to die gallantly,
he told the father of the fate of iiO
capture! men of the Black Watch,
butchered before his eyes. Taken in
a night raid, they were stripjied and
forced to stand in nakedness through
the chill hours till dawn.
'In the gray dull of the morning,"
said Harry, "the Germans told them
they could go back to their own
trenches again. They crawled through
the barbed wire, torn and lacerated,
those brave men. 1 know of nothing
more fiendish than German barbed
wire. Halfway across No Man's Land
the Germans opened with machine
guns and mowed (low every one!
Dad, my son said to me, it was
an awful sight. 1 helped to bury
them.'
"What are you going to do men?"
he challenged. "You are going to
leave this building with the resolution
that you will buckle on the sword,
and you will stand at attention every
moment of your lives until the
sounds the blast of neace!"

Rail 'Auto Derailed
Striking a huge boulder that had
slid down an embankment to the mid
dle of the track, a rail auto of the Mt.
H-xxl K. K. Go. was derailed Thurs
day. Only the driver and one passen
ger, an Upper Valley rancher, were
aboard. The car proceeding; slowlv
around a curve enabled them to jump
to safety.
He charged that the estrangement of
England and the colonies was brought
about through the reign of a Prussian
Prince on the throne of Great Britain
- a hun, he termed King George - and
that Prussian propaganda had served
through iany years to keep hatred
against the motherland alive in the
American heart.
"The spirt of the Revolution prevails
today," lie delcared, "the same spirit.
You are revolting against the hun."
Prussian propaganda had poisoned
America for long years, declared Lau
der, "with one arm around your neck,
coddling you, stabbing you in the back
with the other."
He spoke of German rilles buried in
American soil, asserting that a large
cache had been uncovered not long ago
the murderous instruments intended
to repay American friendship and wel

buried in American soil," charged
Harry. "Who put them there? Your

"Bv God, men !" he exploded, "there

He knows no mercy! He has shown

For a space the speaker was silent,

"This I do know, that thiH country, i

be guided by a noble mind and a steady j

the cheering.
"It took a steady hand and noble 1

"I'm glad because my son was a sol

because I know that he did bis duty.
"There are three l)s for the soldier

"I may have an opportunity to meet;

to the effect that "We're going to do
