Seven days more and the time will have eX- pired in which we can show our inclination to- ward the policy of our government; whether we favor fighting for democracy or autocracy wheather we are Americans or Germans. Pres ident Wilson and congress have put it up to the people and limited the time in which We must answer.
 All over the country patriots are busy in an endeavor to find out who is who. Seven days more and we shall know. From and after that date those who can afford and do not subscribe to a Liberty bond will be pointed out as pro-Ger- mans, therefore against the United States. We cannot be on the fence in the present crisis; we must show our color. Thus far, Ketchikan has shown a patriotic front shall the good citizens fail in this crisis? Never it's not in us. Failure is the last thing they think about.
 For the next seven days, let Us forget the Red Cross. We have given the association a splendid shove ahead; let us shove the sale of the Liberty Loan some now that 1t may not be said that failed to do our duty in that respect The kaiser has his devish eyes on us. Nothing would please him better than to see our govern ment fail tc secure the necessary support. To that end, he has agents spread over -l.o country trying to bring on that faure.

With one or more of those bonds tucked away in ones pocket one need never fear of being arrested and slowed away in the calaboose while some one hunts bail bond.

Just a Little Want Ad
But It Got Results

Did you notice that tired look on the
countenance of Fred Thielsen! There
is cause for it. Yesterday evening the
Rodgers Paper company inserted lit
tie ad in the New Today column of
the Capital Journal to the effect that
boy was wanted by that firm. 1t was
regular little early riser for results.
Half an hour after the paper was on
the street the little ad began to show
results Before the first boy had fairly
presented himself there was another,
then a stream trickling at first, but
steadily swelling in volume poured in
a flood through the firm S doors. Thiel-
sen was drowned out and fled out the
back door. This morning the current
again started in that direction and
Fred again quit his job and walked
the streets to cool off. He was in the
office several times to make certain
the notice did not appear again, and
casually remarked that ''while the
Rodgers company wanted boy. it on
" wanted one and was not anxious to
emplov whole school district. He
further added that if Salem had as
many girls as there were boys the
school census would show above TWEEN
ty thousand.
