the one in Hallowell, is suggestive of what is
happening all over the country:
John B. Hubbard Grand Army Post, organ

ship of over 200, one of the largest in the
State, has given up it's charter due to the
many deaths and removals in the last few
years. On Memorial Day. for the first time in
the history of the post, the Sons of Veterans
took entire charge of the program.
We are told that great many country posts

ers of the little bronze button ever since the
war cling to it as tenaciously as if it were the
emblem of royalty. And little marvel. When
worthily worn. it stands for something

OF the thinned, immortal lines!
Soon the Unions last defender

And the shadows long sre thrown,
Where the drum is hushed forever,

ly due to long training of the people by
able leaders; but if it is due to the pres.
ent Kaiser, have no hesitancy in de-
claring him to be the greatest man of
his time. In everything we have better
opportunities than the Germans, and do
not equal them in anything. Compare
our naval fight at Manila, in which we
were opposed by warships SO rotten that
they never wounded a single sailor in
our fleet, with the fight the Germans
are making against the British navy,
the strongest in the world. Yet can
you name the man who is directing the
German navy in its territically wicked
fight with the British?
But we have been praising our Admi-
raj Dewey for many years, although he
did nothing but sink a lot of ships which
were unable to defend themselves, be-
cause of inefficiency fortunately more
disgraceful than our own.
Compare our army in the Spanish
American war with the German army
now fighting five nations that should be
as powerful as itself, in addition to three
or four weaker powers thrown in for
good measure.
1t does not become US to join England
in the cry: "Look! See what Germany
is doing now'
We should seriously consider the
means adopted by Germany for accom-
plishing tremendous results never before
accomplished by nation at war.
The world is threatened more by Ger
man efficiency than by German militar-
ism. The new invaders are not made up
of barbarous hordes like the Huns of old !;
the new invaders are better husbands
and fathers, better mechanics and
tradesmen, better seamen, better phil
osophers. better scholars, better citizens
and better soldiers, than their foes.
The world is slipping into shiftlessnese

trious Germans force us to learn effici-

successfully combat them, then the Ger

began the trial of the case OF Preston
v. Preston, In which Mrs. Il, ID. Preston
of Lincoln is suing for separate main
tenance. She does not ask for divorce
from her husband. but simply wants $50
per month. One OF the peculiar clrcum-
stances developed In the trial is that the
parties to the suit entered into con-
tract OF settlement at the time they
parted. Each took one OF the children
OF the marriage and Mr.. Preston agreed
In this contract to pay Mrs. Preston $50
per month during summer months and
$40 per month during winter months.
She declares that he owns 200 acres of
Hamilton county land and at the time
the contract was entered into she had
been led to believe that he had but forty
