Loved | Not Honor More"

From the Youths Companion.
The War in Europe has touched us
lightly: out it seemed a few months
age thai We too should soon be fight
ing, though in another war. Our moth
ers were asked to give their sons to
guard the Mexican border; and. if reed
be, to fight. How did they answor?
Here is the letter of one mother whose
two sons wished to go:
II am not the kind of woman to hold
either one of you back from the call of
your country. To my mind there is no
higher honor than a soldiers DUTY
faithfully performed; and, even though
my heart might break with the sorrow
of giving you two up, l should hang nv
head in shame If either one Of YOU
proved unworthy.
SO, if you find that the honorable
thing to 90, is to share in Your com
pany's duty, do it, my boy. with a free
heart. There is nothing finer, Drawer
or truer in the life of man thar to fol-
low your flag when your country is in
danger, and no mother is worthy the
honor of having borne a son III would
hold him in a towards or a strikers
place"
Such a letter as that should put cour-
age into a man of straw. and in all
ages all good women have written or
said the same thing, although not all
ways so beautifully or with such dig
lty. Richard Lovelace addressed his
noble couplet to his sweetheart, but
high minded wome have always ad,
dressed it to their men:
Il could not love, thee. dear so much,
Loved L no honor more"

Why Labor is Scarce.

Here is n reason which you may
have overlooked why labor is growing
scarcer every day in the United States
We have now in Pennsylvania alone
225,00 automobiles. One-third of them
are pleasure cars driven by chauf-
feurs, an army of $4,000 able-bodied
men removed entirely from produc.
tive work.
The army of pleasure car chauffeurs
in the whole country must exceed half
a million men-all n~onproducers. In.
deed, there is another great big army
of men building pleasure cars to be
operated by these other n~onproducers
of essentials.
They used to complain in Germany
that every taxpayer had to carry a sol
der on his back. We vary it in the
United States by carrying a chauffeur
on our backs, says 'Girard' in the
Philadelphia Ledger.

WALTERS NEED NOT RESIGN
Newly Elected Attorney General May
Continue as Members of the Board OF
EducatiOn-N Statute FOrbids 1t

It developed Thursday that T. A
Walters, attorney general-elect, will
not have to give up his place on the
state board of education if he does not
wish to, since it is said by attorneys
that there is nothing in the statutes
which would make it impossible for
the Caldwell man to hold both posi-
tions.
Asked if he would resign from the
board of education, the new attorney
general said that in all probability he
would, although he had been advised
by lawyers with whom he had talked
that such an action was not compul-
sorry.
"Many of my friends have asked
me to remain on the board said the
Caldwell man. "Others of my friends
have said nothing. Those who have
remained silent want me to get Off
I guess" he added laughingly.
Walters admitted that he had not
made up his mind.
1t has been quite generally be-
1ieyed that the state law made it i'm
possible for any persons to hold two
positions in the state government.
