.oUR COUNTRY AND OUR MOTHER

This war is developing manhood as Jothme else has ever developed it. Or, uthcr, it is bringing it to the surfaee,whcrc m may see it. the manhood that was al- ready in existence, in the hearts of Amer 'caus. but which was too often invisible m the hurry and scury of ordinary affairs.
 Evidences of this noble manhood may be found often in the letters of soldiers In act. the best literature of the war is not 1cug furnished by the professional writers 1ut bv the soldiers themselves, through heir personal letters, and the best senti- ucuts arc being expressed by the humble ucs who have mo thought of gaining fame lv expressing it.
 All of which is suggested by a soldiers cttcr that is going the rounds of the press written by a Tennessee boy to his young r brother back home They are sons of a widowed mother and the one of them is m the army and the other is at home taking arc of his mother, and here is the way the soldier boy writes to his brother at home:
 "Dm't think I enlisted because l did not want to help you in caring for mother. You know both of us have the right spirit, ls every loyal American should have, and that is-om country first. While l am in hc army learning to do my bit, you are loiug just as much as I and you will be blessed for it. It's just like this; l am fight ing for our country and you are taking are of mother. and the two important things are our country and our mother. So f is up to us to do it. By this don't mean that you are to bear all the expense, for l nm going to send all I can. You stay close bv mothcr now, and if the good Lord wills it l will come back, and then you can go out into the world and l will stay with mother until the end'
 Every stacker in this country ought to be compelled to read those words in public. If he could stand before an audience and read them. with never blush of shame upon his checks, then he could be pro- uomced hopeless. Or, if an able-bodied boy in this good land of ours can read such words, without making mental resolutions to do something for mother or for country, then indeed would we know that it is use less to make further effort to save civili- tation from the ravages of militarism.- Cambridge (Ohio) Jeffersonian.

Carl Muck, German leader of the Bos- ton Symphony Orchestra refused to play the Star Spaugled Banner at public con cert Now Boston is getting even by re- rusmg to patronizc any public functions where Carl plays. That is not enough. Carl should be arrested and sent to some detention camp for the duration of the war. Americans are entirely too easy with alien enemies.
