Abdominal Patriotism.

"You cannot worship God on an
empty stomach, nor can you be
patriotic when you are starving"
Add these to the epigrams of Wood
row Wilson along with "too proud to
fight"
The inspiring thoughts were uttered

philosophy that President Wilson is
spreading over the country.
The Pilgrim Fathers, we fancy, wor-
shipped God on empty stomachs with
considerable frequency The followers
of Washington knew what starvation
meant.
