Phillip COUNSELS PATIENCE
Says Even if American Ship Is Sunk
Nation Must Forhear.

1T believe it our moral duty to cease
supplying munitions of war to the
countries Of Europe and If bread is
one Of the elements that they must
have to continue it let us cease to
furnish that" Governor Philip said at
the ashington-Lincoln celebration at
the La Crosse State Normal school.
He declared also in favor of the stop
ping of all shipments of arms.
Touching on the restrictions on COM
merce in war zone water he said:
Trying incidents will occur. Our
commerce will suffer and now and
then a venturesome American flag will
be buried in the sea. Under some
conditions that would be unbearable.
However, in the present situation such
a misfortune may occur without any
intentional act on the part Of the re-
sponsible nation and we must hold
our American spirit in check, or we
shall be drawn into that great con-
troversy, serving no useful purpose,
but merely increasing the cost to our
selves and the world"

board, and So for other expenditures,
does not include anything for sickness
or dependents, contributions to the
churches or societies, insurance pre-
miums or savings, newspapers or peri

commission points out. 1T allows only
for the bare necessities that make
possibly reasonable comfort, reason
able physical wellbeing, decency and
moral wellbeing."
The commission found that in So

the wage paid to women living at
home runs below the standard living
cost. 1t was discovered that boarding

cities, cafeterias taking their place.

tigated live away from home.

AN OBITUARY.

or a truth it may be said that death
loves a shining mark" for it has rec
emily laid its icy ha nd on a precious
Jewel and plucked from our midst one
# u fairest flowers.
On March "a, 1915, Miss Annie Ma,
Watt departed this life after nine weeks
# severe suffering.
Miss Annie May was the oldest dauph.
er of Mr.. and Mrs. James Watt, of
lrLeod, Miss. She was born January
9th, 1897, and died at the age of IS
ears, two months and fourteen DAYS.
She was taken sick while in college
IN Kentucky, after a week or more she
vas taken to the hospital in frankfort.
KY. where she remained a month. She
was then brought home and finally car
ried to the Scooba Sanitarium for an
operation, but it was too late, appendi-
citis had done its fatal work.
Miss Watt was a true christian. hav-
ing joined the Methodist church early
IN life, and her sweet christian charac-
ter, happy DISPOSITION andbeautiful face
attracted and won the hearts of all who
knew her, and therefore, her death has
caused great sorrow, but our sorrows
are paliated by the sweet thought that
our loss is her infinite gain; THAT all
things work together for good to them
that love God" and that she is now
with the joyous group around the great
white throne in heaven, there to sing
praises forever more.
1t is said hat in the mountains Of
Switzerland that sheep are afraid to
go through the dark passes in order to
get to another pasture. When thew
cannot be driven a shepherd takes a
lamb in his arms and leads the way and
the mother sheep will follow, notwith-
standing her fear of the dark passes
and the wolves, then the whole flock
follows.
Miss Annie May has crossed the dark
valley Of the shadow of death, and NAV
she be one bright strong link to lead
all her loved ones to heaven. She ia
patiently waiting on the other side.
resting under the shade of the trees.
And when the time of our departure
comes may we also be prepared to en-
ter that land of everlasting felicity,
and may our souls be as pure and as
white as hers. A FRIEND.
