Now that the United States has
joined with the Allies, the sentiment
of the past has merged into the per-
sonal interest of the present. The duty
of the loyal and patriotic citizen Is to
bend every effort to bring the great
Worlds War to satisfactory conclu-
sion, to assist in all ways the forces
that have been fighting at tremendous
odds the giant power of autocracy.
Victory is now assured; the union of
the great fighting force of the United
States navy, its military, its financial
cooperation, its full and complete sym
patty, will eventually bring about u
peace that will be solid and lasting.
Canada, just across the border line,
that has no mark of fertilization, no
signs of defense welcomes the assist
ance that the United States is render
ing, welcomes this new partner into the
arena that is battling for disruption
of the forces that breed and beget tyr

Of grain that may be expected from the

Hqlf-and-Half "Bug''
Shows Capital How
To Boost Recruiting

WASHINGTON, June 2s-The late
Jules Verne thought of more mill
tary innovations than Zeppelin or Edi-
son ever dreamed of, but the record
for dreaming is held by several of
the applicants who in the last few
weeks have come with vast projects
to help the government in it's present
crisis.
For instance, one enterprising
young man has a brilliant plan to
make the record number of recruits
in the shortest possible time. He has
applied for permission to walk the
streets clad in patent suit of clothes
of his own designing. The suit con-
sists of half in half effect so built
that if you look at him from the right
side the wearer presents the appear
ance of khaki clad private Of in
fantry, but the view from the left side
shows the astonished spectators a
rather effeminately clad civilian wear

side, tango lizard" The placard to

Red Cross Day In
Sunday Schools Is
Urged By President

WASHINGTON. D. c., June Is
Patriotic Sunday is to be observed
next Sunday in all the Sunday schools
of the United States in response to an
appeal by President Wilson to observe
the day by generous giving to the Red
Cross. President Wilson's letter fol-
lows:
ITO the Officers. Teachers, and
Scholars Of the Sunday Schools of the
United States of America:
The present insistent call OF our
beloved country must be heard and
answered by every citizen Of the
United States in proportion to his or
her ability to maintain the national
power and honor Many citizens will
render their aid by force of arms on
the battlefield, while others will make
the nation strong by their patriotic
gifts and support to the common cause.
1t is, therefore, highly fitting that the
Sunday school of the nation should
observe a special patriotic day, and on
this occasion should make special
contribution to the American Red
Cross for the alienation of the suffer
ing entailed by the prosecution of the
present war 1t is my earnest hope
that your generosity may be unstinted
in this hour of the nations need, and
that this special day may mean much
to you in the undertaking of the cause
for which our beloved land now con
tends. WOODROW WILSON"

GERMAN COOKS HOARD
OF $4,000 DISCOVERED

PARIS, June 2S.-The equivalent OF
$4,000 in securities recently was
found hidden behind buffet by a
French official who was rearranging
the furniture of his apartment. The
little fortune was traced to German
cook who was employed by the official
and whose excellent attitude since the
war began gained for her the priv
ilege of remaining in France
The police made inquiries about her
movements recently and she disap-
reared The official and his habitual
guests were well placed to acquire
confidential information regarding the
national defense. That fact and the
discovery of her unsupported wealth
led to the suspicion that the cook
might have been in communication
with the enemy. The fortune mas
been sequestered.
