KELLOGG ON PREPAREDNESS

7 AM, of course, earnestly in favor Of i'm
mediately taking steps to place our
army and navy in condition to defend
the country, to protect American citizens,
their homes and the institutions of gov
eminent. If we value the blessings Of
peace and desire to perpetuate represen-
tative government, we cannot afford to
neglect this duty. This hour Of world
conflict makes it time of national peril.
The teachings of history and the wisdom
of statesmen all tell us we cannot rely for
protection on our own pacific intentions.
The conditions along the border of Mex
leo strikingly exemplify this fact. We
have been tolerant and pacific in our in
tentions. For five years we have suffered
many indignities. Our citizens have been
driven from their homes and murdered,
their property destroyed and American
territory invaded. Our people are pat
riotic and self sacrificing, determined to
maintain their rights, their honor, and de-
fend their country They have no desire
for aggression or conquest. With this
spirit there is no danger in an adequate
army and navy, only safety. With econ
omy practiced in other departments Of
government, the burden will not be felt,
but if it is necessary that it should be-,
the cause justifes the sacrifice. The prep
aration should be thoro. Then if we pur-
sue a course of just and firm neutrality,
and uphold a high standard of national
honor, our future will be secure.-Frank
Kellogg.

HABIT

There are many people who go through
life APPARENTLY Indifferent to the power OF
good habits. So they are continually at
the mercy of circumstances. Each day
they renew their experiences without
profit. Sometimes it seems as it they be-
gan each day with almost no knowledge
of the lessons brought them by the days
gone before. So the new day is like bat
tie to them, wager without skill, ending
in defeat. At the end they sink exhausted
into sleep, older and no wiser. :,
IF you will look into their lives you Will
find, in nearly every instance, it is the lit
tie things that have caused the exhaustion
and the defeat.
On the other hand, there are those who
are never bothered by the little things

TALKS ON THRIFT
BUMPS AND PLEASANT DOORS
is a certain vaudeville skit that
is absurdly amusing, but absurd

THERE is a certain vaudeville skit that
is absurdly amusing, but absurd
ly true. It is a mock circus. One
of the attractions is patent fly catcher,
and with all the pomp and ceremony of
the usual circus barker the merits of this
invention are extolled.
Attracted by pleasant odor coming
from an open door with the word we
come" overhead, the fly walks in. The sur
roundings are inviting. He enjoys him
self immensely, and proceeds to explore
the place. Suddenly he finds himself on
a coy balcony Attendants are there to
wait on him, cool breezes are blowing and
refreshments are his for the taking. He
rests awhile Proceeding further he finds
himself on higher balcony, with more
attractions and has another siesta. Elk
plOring still further, he finds another open
door, with an inviting sign overhead, VEN
lures out, only to find no balcony, and
plunges to his DEATH Absurd you say
yes. But true of many people in real life.
A certain music master had in his choir
promoter He induced the musician to
invest about three hundred dollars in a
certain chewing gum proposition that
promised large returns The music dou-
bled his money in three months and was
delighted with the new way OF getting
rich quick. The fly had found cozy bal
cony and liked it.
, Along came another. proposition by the
same man, that promised even bigger re-
turns, but entailed more money. He was
leading his victim to higher balcony, and
he, poor little fly, didn't know it.
The music master consulted his bank
er who advised him to keep his profits
and stay out "You will get the specula-
tive fever and lose in the, end" said the
bank man; but the little fly knew better
he had tried one resting place and liked
it, and would try another. He put prac-
tically all his savings in the new PROPOSE

moter was among the missing, leaving a
deserted office and bale of stock certii-

LIES DAY

Between two nights, our day

And we have passed away.
