MOTHERHOOD AND WAR.

Ancient wars revealed the heroism of motherhood to such degree that Spartan mother became the synonym of supercourage devotion in the world. Poets have immortazed the noble sacrifices and unex mpcd foritude Of such mothers among the Greeks and Re Reading in the lofty and clear utterances of .e classics heathful deeds of herosm, is apt to consider legends dressed by the
 Imagination the poet to suit the exigencies of his lay ls.. than the records of actual occurrences.
 Not fhere is proof at hand even now, in this presa:c age Of equally sublime expressions and acts of mothers living. A letter to the New York Times from Mrs E. F Randolph. of Trenton, N J. cute impressive in it's patriotic simplicity any tha history records adorn the pages of ancient romance She says:
 Some appealing to the president in regard 10 their going to As a mother of saHs one whom will have to go, beg of them not 10 do it. Our president has much responsibility Re ought not to annoy him. but uphold and sustain m F5.s burden is heavier than any man has borne SC we ought cheer and help him. I am ashamed of those su5ragists who take this time to add to his difficulties Our cause can wait There greater things 10 settle"
 No doubt there are hundreds, thousands of mothers in the United States who will join this noble mother in ish devotion the of justice and right IT know, these mothers. than any else the bless ngs of liberty for their They understand than others Liberty the Mother of the World Seattle Post-Intelligencer.

X GOOD SLOGAN TO ADOPT.

There is a movement on foot in these times of stress and worry to adopt slogan for each state of the Union. In Colorado Think straight, work hard be brave play fair; love much is the slogan It is all to the good because it means so much. But why be elaborate? And unless 1ec insist on a stretched article, two words is all that is needed fer a good substantial slogan and
 onid include a and more, that which is contain ed ill the Colorado slogan and simplify matters. Be honest, for instane.
 In these two words you have all the slogan that anyone could wish for to make a happy world They mean everything. If you think ill of your neighbor you are not thinking straight and you are cheating Christian teaching which is dishonesty. If you don't work hard you are cheating the other fellow or yourself of that which belongs to the other fellow or yourself. If you are not brave you must be coward and to be q coward is to be dishonest with yourself. If you don't play fair, you are positively dishonest and if you don't love you are false to Christian teaching. and being false is being diahonest From that it seems that the slogan Be honest .s prefer 5fa end we suggest Is adoption. Oh. what difference it would make in this world if we were to adopt and practice it!

MAKING IT EASIER.

Down in the bottom of every human heart there is a spark of hope that after our soujourn in this vale of tears, worry, misery and hatred. all will be well. But while we are going through without relinquishment particle of that hope of harmony in the hereafter, is it not possible for us to reduce the misery that we all complain of Can we not make the way pleasanter? It seems that little more respect for one another little more regard for one anothers right would make our sojouIn easier; and that would help some

SERIOUS MENACE.

The Industrial Workers of the World men, ace is important in certain sections Ii we con slider that instead of everyone, proprietor, clerk and laborer alike feeling it a patriotic duty to work little harder and little longer in order that the country can spare more men for waglng war to bring peace and hasten safety to the world efforts are made to diminish both hours and out put of work. The result is, of course, to hamper the effectiveness of this country's efforts, which in effect at least, is the aiding to increase the enemy's effectiveness. In other words any one hamperng the government in any form at this time, is guilty of nothing short of treason.

THE REAL TEST.

There is nothing like the acid test of war' to bring out what is mean unpatriotic and vicious in our natures By this process we easily dis close the yellow in us, if there be any. It gives tha Had T opportunity to show how unpatriotic he can be- It enables the citizen of low selfish and groveling ideas an opportunity to register his name and call his number. It enables every man to register and grade his peculiar and personal standard of citizenship. and thus show himself
 in his true color. The record will be kept and after tbe Evar .z oser their true character aired which will make some interesting disclosure; but

cerning the Importance OF the mat

''The corn crop in the northern
