As the Editor Sees Il

Patriotism is in the air these
da,& and it extends from ont
end of the country to the other,
and embraces all classes of citi-
zens from the millionaire to the
pauper. That is patriotism tc
ones flag and country. But there
is still another kind of patriotism.
that is of quite as great import
ance but is not so generally oh
served. That is patriotism t.
the home town, to the schools,
the churches, the lodges, the bust
ness men, in fact, to everything
that pertains to the home life.
The more prosperous the home
communities of the country, thI
greater is the power of the coun-
try as a single unit. The man
who exerts his influence n behalf
of his home town uses as great a
brand of patriotism as the on
who mounts'a platform and starts
the eagle to screaming. AS a
matter of fact, there is no com
parison between the two, for in
nine cases out of ten actions speak
louder than words. Patriotism
to country is commendable, but
that to both home and country is
even better.
If there are any old bachelors
in this countryside they should
buck up and take heart. There
is still hope even for them. Dur
ing the next few years Europe
will be almost destitute of suit
able material for husbands, and
fair damsels will be pining their
lives away for the mates that
never come. Just keep up heart
for a time, fellows, and if nothing
better turns up, you can take a
trip abroad and annex a dozen or
two.
Have you noticed the peculiar
titles beneath the surface in the
mobilization Of the National

Guard of the United States and
its dispatch to the border? Serv-
ing in the ranks of many of the
organizations are millionaires
Of the highest social and financial
families. In the same commands
are jauitors, farmers, clerks aud
common laborers, all good men
and true. Each is serving his
country to the best of his ability,
nut the most noticeable feature
is the fact that social caste is ut
terly unknown. The millionaire
and the laborer groo q their
horses or dig bitches side by side
md joke as though they had been
fast friends all of their lives.
They are comrades in a common
cause, and as comrades they think
act and do.
The national campaign is we'll
under way, but because of the
universal interest in the border
situation many people are giving
the respective candidates scarcely
a passing thought. Newspapers
are RELOCATING them and their
doings to the the inside pages,
while the full force of the lime
light is focused upon Mexico and
the troops on our own side of the
border. 1t is hard lines for the
politicians, but the people, no
ioubt, will live through the dis
tressing ordeal without loss of
'leep or flesh.
It is surprising how quickly a
ersou can lose interest in a sub
j ct that has been in their minds
for a year or more. Since the
European war commenced it has
been the one great topic of con-
versatiou and speculation the
world over. Now, so far as we
Il the United States are con-
erned, it is a back number,
shaved off the map, practically
'orgotten. Our own clothes line
affair with Mexico is the all abb
sorbiug object before the public
eye and in the public mind, and
Just at this time a sick mule on
TIE border is of more Importance
to as than the outcome of any OF
the innumerable clashes across
the water. Patriotism should
aud does begin at home.
Was there an item of news con-
corning yourself or your family
that did not get in the last issue
of the paper? If so, it was omit
ted because we did learn of it and
you did not tell as. We want
every Legitimate piece of news in
this community, and we ask YOU
TO tell us what YOU know.

HOW YOU CAN MAKE
 YOUR CLOTHES WATERPROOF

A French scientist has lately discov- cred an effective method of making garments absolutely waterproof. The process is simple. durable and inex- pensiye, and does not injure the ap- pearance of the cloths. It consists of very slight impregnation of the fiber of the cloth with wool-fat. This is dis solved and diluated in neutral, an- hydrous and volatile liquid. Take five or ten parts of Adeps lanae. procurable at almost any drug store, liquefy it in little chloroform and dilute with ninety to ninety-five parts of gasoline.
 Immerse in this the entire garment,
 squeezing or stirring it for a few minutes, then wringing out and drying
 in the air.
 To make bags, leggings, articles of
 coarse cloth or canvass waterproof
 smear them thoroughly with a mix
 ture of tale with fifty per cent vase
 line.
 | Red vaseline is best, since it costs
 less and gives an attractive khaki
 color. The paste is applied much like
 shoe blacking. and is then rubbed in vigorously with brush to make sure
 of an intimate contract. Shoes, also, should be waterproofed, especially for the winter and wet
 spring months. Any of the reliable
 brands of waterproofng oils on the
 market will be found satisfactory, pro-
 vided they are applied often enough
 -after every trip in the rain or snow.
 The old-fashioned method of rubbing
 in tallow is still efficient, though not
 so convenient to use as the commer- cial brands.
