The response to the second request
for picture puzzles has been very gen.
erous Many have come from Au-
gusta and with contributions from
Waterville. Hallowell, Litchfield.
Weeks Mills and one Of the r. F, d.
routes have brought the total up to Sc,
with more promised. The givers are
thanked most heartily for their CO.
operation. The reward lies in the
thought of the cheer these gifts will
carry to the poor wounded men whose
plight is in many cases beyond our
imagination. Picture puzzles will be
forwarded as long as any are re-
ceived. Send to Miss H. G. Child. Il

help offered in this case leads to the
thought of something else that may be
suggested later. Watch for it.

NATION CANNOT
FULFILL OBLIGATIONS
ON SENTIMENT
CONTINUED from Page one.)

We cannot alter the world over
night. We cannot hold it at arms
length by merely holding up our hands
in disapproval and declaring our sep
aration in sympathy and purpose from
il. We cannot make it respect us by
ignoring it. The hard, ugly fact is
that it will heed us onlv if it certain
ly knows that our obligation to our
selves and our ideals can and will be
met to the utmost and without delay
should any one seek to embarrass
their fulfllment or to make it impos-
sible.
We stand pledged and committed
to defend these things above all 9th
ers First, our unquestionable rights
as nation and the rights of our citi-
zens in America and outside of il as
the consensus of civilized peoples has
defined them; second, the unembar-
rassed and unhindered realization of
| our political development within our
own borders; and. third, the peace and
| political autonomy of the Americans.
When we speak of national defense,
we are thinking not merely of the ac-
tual invasion of our territory by an
enemy. We are thinking rather Of
the means of making it evident that
IT. will not be safe for anyone to at
tempt indirect, flank assaults upon
the things we believe to underline our
life and condition our hopes for the
freedom and prosperity of the peoples
OF this hemisphere.
1t is out duty therefore Just because
we resDect. and mean always to re-
spect the rights of others. to provide
ourselves with the ready and adequate
means of making it certain that 9TH
ers Will respect our rights just be-
cause we do not wish to become en-
broiled and do not mean to become
embroiled in the quarrels which are
only too apt to upset the peace of the
world.

bidding any person to receive more
than half gallon of whiskey every
fifteen days, or twenty-four pints of
beer, and prohibiting the sale of
newspapers containing liquor adver-
tisements.
The bills provide penalties of from
$50 to $500 for violation, and give the
sheriffs authority to tear down all
liquor signs that are posted anywhere
In the state.
Locally, the advertising bill is taken
as discriminating between state and
outside newspapers, as 1t is contend
ed that while the state cannot adopt
any law to prevent outside newspa-
pers containing liquor advertisements
from going through the mails direct
to subscribers, the legislature seeks
to curtail the revenue of papers in the
state. The bill forbids the sale of
any newspaper at news stands that
contains liquor advertisements.
That stiff fight will be precipitated
is conceded on all sides. Even some
of the strongest prohibitionists con-
tend that the proposed laws are en-
tirely too drastic and some are fear.
full that in their ardor the prohibit
tionists might go too far, and that the

Shall Train Soldiers.

We shall train soldiers and develop
offcers capable of directing great mil
itary operations; we shall make nit
certain that we can upon occasion
command the physical materials nee.
essary for warfare; and our army shall
always be organized in such way as
to make it serve when necessary. But
we shall maintain it in ordinary times
only as an instrument of order and for
the uses of days of peace.
Plans for the readjustment of the
army must be formulated and carried
out without delay, for we do not know
what the circumstances of another
month or another day may bring
forth. Slowly we can supply abund-
ant material for volunteer army but
we must not wait for the slow pro-
cesses. We must get our materials
ready upon as large a scale as is DOS
sible while these larger things are be-
ing done.
You know, of course, what the plan
