The Man Behind The Plow

They sing about the glories of the
man behind the gun,
And the books are full Of stories OF
the wonders he has done,
There's something sort o thrilling in
the flags that's wavin' high,
And it makes you want to holler
when the boys 60 marchin' by
But when the shoutin's over and
the fightin's done. somehow
We find we're still dependin' on the
man behind the plow.
In all the bump and splendor of an
army on parade.
And through the awful darkness
that the smoke of battles made
In the hills where jewels glitter and
shouting men debate,
In places where the rulers deal out
their honors great,
There's not a single person who'd
be doing business now.
Or have medals, if it wasn't for the
man behind the plow.
We are building mighty cities and
we are gaining lofty heights,
We are winning lots of glory and
we are setting things to rights,

A word of courage, or a thought of

Shops Make Lavish Display of Pretty Things That Once
 Were Made at Home.
EMERY THAT IS EXQUISITE
Artistry, FrivoIty and Originality Have Been Combined With Wonder full ResuIts-Gorgeous Colors Rule in Most Cases-Empire Styles
 Have Popularity.

While acknowledging that the young bride of today is justified in selecting for her rousseau only those bits of lin- gerie that are suitable for the fashions of the hour, still, one has pleasant memories of the preparation of a dozen of each, that was the sum and substance of wedding chest of other days.
 One thinks of the patience, eager ness and joy which went into the work of making those dozens of garments and the long hours spent by the family together, cutting, basting, stitching and putting on the handwork. It was always task of love, this preparation of the underlnen for a girl in the fam fly, and all her intimate friends added their share. But this affectionate task, like many other things that were once considered necessary in the family life, has gone by the board.
 The shops do our work for us, and it is all part of the substitution of the radiator for the open fire, the elec- tric stove for the charcoal and wood, the readymade gowns and suits for the home sewing room and the machine stitching for the threaded needle.
 Women Have More Leisure.
 In every way women are finding that drudgery is loosening it's hold on their lives, and soon all they will have to do is give their time to social serv- ice, reading and the lighter forms of pleasure.

American firms who contemplate an extension of enterprise in this direc- tion may be advised to consider the proposed action of the Russian govern ment to establish a new line of ships running between Melbourne and Syd- eny and Vladivostok. The Russian authorities have suggested that in the event of such a company being formed, with half Russian and half Australian capital, they would purchase the requi- site ships, subsidize the company and long period.s These are the proposals set forth by a special trade envoy who visited the country under direction from the Russian chamber of export Commerce Report.
