Let Us Have Peace.

The greatest calamity in his
tory is being enacted in Europe.
Five of the greatest nations Of
the world and several of the
smaller ones are graphing in
the grip of death.
Fears are entertained lest even
others be drawn into the furnace
of war.
Death and destruction stalk
abroad now and famine and pes.
thence will follow.
Wars of the past will be as
the games of children when com.
pared with the present struggle.
Men will 60 down like blades
of grass before the modern en-
gines of destruction, and a once
fair land will be peopled with
widows and orphans and the
MANNED from the field of earn.
age.
1t is terrible to contemplate!
Some hand should stay the
conflict, but whose hand will It
be?
President Wilson, sitting by
the bedside of his dying wife,
was impelled BY his sense of du.
ty to pen a strong plea for peace.
1t was without effect.
But there is one power which
can stop the war, if it so!desires,
and that is the money power.
If the great bankers of the
world will unite and close their
vaults to the kings and emperors
whose personal jealOusies have
plunged their patriotic citizens
into the deadliest strife of the
age, this war will soon end.
Nations cannot fight and feed
armies without money, and wher
money fades away rational sense
returns.
The banks of the United
States have wisely set the exam
pie. Their vaults have beer
closed.
If the money barous of Europ'
will follow their example We vii
have peace.
It is time for action.

A Modern Necessity.

The value of advertising is felt
at three ends-the merchant, the
consumer and the publisher.
Through the medium of his adj
vertisements, the merchant ac-
quaints the consumer with the
wares he has for sale, with their
values and their attractive fea-
lures, and is himself constantly
in touch with the consumer.
The consumer reads of the
goods he wants, learns where to
find them, and saves the time OF
fruitless hunting from place to
place.
The publisher is the go-be-
tween, the medium of communi-
cation between the buyer and
seller, a sort of public conver-
fence. Strange as it may seem,
he, too, has his uses.
Advertising accomplishes more
good and better results for all
people than any one feature in
commercial life.
1t is a modern necessity, made
so by the constantly increasing
demands of a discriminating pub
