one pacifst, because it would mean
that our young men would have to
take orders, and orders are a bad
influence on YOUTH
But what hope is held out in in
dustrial life for the young man who
is resentful of orders? Under pres
ent-day Industrial conditions prob
ably not one young man in twenty
can begin active life, as a giver of
orders. But ability to take orders
and to execute them intelligently
and we'll is the strongest test of ones
capability to give orders as he ad-
vances in the industrial world.
Recall, if you will, knowledge of
past and present acQuaintances- the
companions of your boyhood and the
associates of today, and ask your
self who have been the failures, the
incompetents, the Incorporate and
possibly the vicious? With few ex-
ceptions they were the ones who
scorned instruction, who resented
discipline, who defied orders in the
business and the Industrial world.
The rule of the ages-and it is
not abated in our day-is that in
dividuals mount to success on the
foundation of discipline, and the ma
ton that scorns discipline is headed
for trouble and possibly for ruin.
Builds Up Virile Manhood.
If we shall be wise enough to
adopt the Swiss system of moderate
but universal military training OF
the country's youth we shall there
by tremendously increase our ma
tional efficiency, build up a more

virile manhood, beget a happier and
stronger posterity, and at the same
time insure the independence of our
people, the perpetuity of our insti-
tutions and immunity from hostile
aggression and invasion.
We would consider foolish the man
who should say, II haven't time to
bother with exercise and outdoor &C
tivity; it leaves me physically sore
and weary"
The principle holds even truer in
national application. The nation
that thinks it cannot spare time from
the absorption of moneymaking and
the pursuit of material success to
train and educate in the supreme es-
sentials the youth of it's day and
generation is in danger.
The more it amasses unguarded
wealth the greater will it make the
incentive of foreign power, greed
and aggression to attack it. The
Chinese have learned that truth too
late and to their sorrow.

that preparedness and service would
mean "militarism,' was we'll an
swered by Governor Walsh in his ad-
dress at Boston. There could be no
such word, declared the governor
''in a country where the citizens are
soldiers and the soldiers are cit
izens."
The truth of that observation lies
in the fact that under our form of
government the citizens would be
the government and the citizens
would be the reserve army of de-
Tense. Under the Swiss system of
universal training of the country's

If that. system exacted more than
it gave in rich return-it if ex-
hausted the virile strength of the
country's manhood, or detracted from
it's Industrial efficiency, or made
young men less fit for life's civilian
duties-it might we'll be rejected.
But the converse is true. 1t would
make of this nation greater and
more efficient people. AS Mr.. Roose-
welt adds-and his conclusions are
unanswerable-"ou young men at
the outset of their lives would be re-
tained-not merely to shoot and to
drill, which are only small parts Of
military training-but to habits of
bodily endurance and moral self mas
terry, to command, to obey, to act on
their own initiative and to under
stand and promptly execute orders, to
respect themselves and to respect
others, and to understand that they
are to serve their country with deeds
and not words only"

THE SQUARE DEAL

The following are snappy state
ments from an article entitled 'tPre-
paredness and the Square DEAL" by
Theodore Roosevelt in the March
Metropolitan magazine which is re-
leased today:
Military preparedness to be COM
pletely effective must be founded up
on preparedness Of labor, prepared
ness of management, financial pre-
paredness- eliminating in man
hood preparedness.
In: rate legislation, for instance,
we should, copy the example Of
France, which, when it regulates and
controls railway and demands of It
certain types, of public service and
certain types of action toward it's en-
ployees, also guarantees as a first
charge Of a certain minimum profit
to the investors.

way Commission or Public Utilities
Commission is worth it's salt unless
it will stand ,unflinchingly against
any popular clamorf which prevents
the corporation from getting ample
profits exactly, as it stands against
the corporation which, having Sc
cured ample profits, fails to render
proper service to the public, to- do
justice to,,its employees, and to act
honestly toward all men. =. ..... -

only by cooperation of many differ
ent influences and factors-schools,
doctors, hospitals, experts of all
kinds; it is only through the govern
ment that such cooperation can be
organized. Such cooperation should
be given by the government, acting
for the people as a whole, and in re-
turn the fullest performance of duty
and loyalty should be required.
We cannot have Industrial justice
so long as we have forty-eight DIFF
ferent codes of laws of governing
accidents in factories, sanitary con-

THIS PAPER REP RESENTED FOR FOREIGN
e. ADVERTISING BY THE
BIG EIGHT-HOUR DAY CAMPAIGN

Organized labor, operating through
the Labor Central association in New
York City, is sending to labor unions
throughout the country over $780,
600 stamps, each meant to carry
special publicity message.
The stamps are to be affixed to
letters after the manner of Red Cross
stamps and stamps advertising ma
tional expositions. Each stamp car
ries the slogan, For the Eight-Hour
Day--A Movement Nearer to JUS
tice" A portion of the stamps de-
sign shows a day split into eight
hour periods, one for work, one for
sleep and one for recreation.
1t is the plan to distribute the
stamps to all friends of the eight
hour movement, whether employers,
union members or sympathizers.
Besides sending them out on letters,
union members receiving them are
asked to paste them on mirrors in
the shops, on literature distributed
to workmen and on bills and letters
that go directly to business men.
The idea of using the eight-hour
stamps in a nationwide publicity
campaign was worked out after
the Industrial Relations commission
had developed the fact that the
Rockefeller interests were paying
Ivy Lee $4,000 per year to act as
the Rockefeller press agent. 1t was
suggested that organized labor had
concentrated it's energies so COM
pletely on wage fights that it had
neglected educational opportunities
such as organized capital employed
with great skill
A stamp by the use of which every
union member could constitute him
self "an Ivy Lee of the labor cause"
was the result.
Children will be asked to paste
the stamps on their school papers
with this note to their school teach
ers: Teacher, teach us these
truths
Members of church congregations
will be asked to send a stamp to their
priest or pastor suggesting SER
man: Nearer to Justice-the Eight
Hour Day"
Organizations, societies and pub
lie Officials who express sympathy
with the eight-hour cause are to be
supplied with large quantities for
use on all their official correspond
ence.
The campaign for the nationwide
use of an eight-hour stamp is meant
to be the opening wedge for a gen.
eral educational movement as a per-
manent, feature of the labor cause.
Local unions are taking an active in
