One Country, One Flau

One of the fine things about the
present war situation in this country
is the disappearance Of party lines in
the face OF international trouble. OF
course this is as It should be, but
nevertheless it puts the right feeling
into the country to see politics set
aside completely and all pulling for
good old Uncle Sam. The Republic
cans in Congress have got right be-
hind Wilson's program and pushed
hard. Roosevelt has called upon and
been warmly greeted by the president.
Hughes, Taft Lodge, Root and other
recognized anti-administration are
backing Wilson without reservation.
Even Bryan. the pacifst tenders his
services in any capacity. These men
are all true Americans who differ on
ly in ideas of policy Confronted by
an outside foe, they are as one, and
so are their respective followers

Americas Host of Unmarried Men.

We have 100000 unmarried mel
in the United States between the ages
CT Is and A. This is 10 per cent. OF
nearly half of the total 23,000000 mel
in this age period.
There are about 100000 unmarried
women. Why should we have such
a host OF unmarried people in ou
highly civilized and prosperous ma
ton?
OF our 10000, 600 unmarried men. q
vast number are OF sound health and
financially able to marry. Why do
they not do it? Why have we so
many matrimonial shirkers? This is
no trifing question 1t may soon be-
come one of national Importance and
concern.
Our nation has a declining birth
rate It's death rate from degenera-
tive diseases caused by life strain is
advancing. The increase in sedentary
occupations and muscularly inactive
lives is sapping the physical stamina
OF the people Soon a large number of
men are to be sent. to the battle front.
Under these conditions the sisnifc-
ance of our excessive number Of UNI
married people is obvious.
Clearly for the safety of the State
and of the race we now need not only
more soldiers, but more fathers and
mothers. We need not necessarily
larger families, but more families.
The development of expensive tastes
by our young women and the high
,e f.I
many young men to remain single.
But there are surely 100000 Gus of
10000, 0OOO to whom these eXcuafs
could not apply and who, in the natur-
al order of things should be married.
The wealth Of our people has in
creased maryelously in recent years
and the proportion of married people !
should have increased accordingly.
Comparisons with the past or with |
other countries does not dispose of
the problem or tell us why our sur |
plus millions of manageable men |
should remain single. AS a result of I
this condition, a vast number OF
young women are forced to toll in
factories and business houses to earn
their daily bread-work which nature
did not intend them to do and which I
in many instances. adversely affects
their health and lives. And this con-
tinues while a great army of unmar-
ried men are selfshly spending their
upon themselves. Many of
them without care or responsibility,
develop eXtravagant and often vicious
habits which they decline to give up
FOR an orderly, rational, normal exis-
-ence as married.
This is an unnatural state of affairs,
md merits attention.
If our nation and race are to en-
lure the trend of national health and
'itality must not be permitted to de-
line.

or study and investigation by ma
ional vitality commission-Equitable

DELIGHTFUL AFFAIR.

DELIGHTFUL AFFAIR.
A unique and very interesting
entertainment and one of the best
of the season, was that held last
Thursday afternoon, February the
twenty second George Washing
tons 185th Birthday Anniversary,
in the halle of the First Nationl
Bank building, from 1870 to $50
P. NJ, at which place the Novelty
Club entertained the Woman's Club
Sunshine Club, K. X. K. Club,
Scilorf Club and members of their
own to a delicious one course lunch
con.
The hall was beautifully deco
rated in the colors of red, white
and blue which was in keeping with
the season. The window curtains
were made of the red, white and
blue striped material, while the
walls were decorated with many
beautiful flags and the picture of
George Washington to complete
the artistical arrangements of the
decorations. Chairs and benches
were cleverly arranged over the
hall, which enabled the hostesses to
seat the guests in a comfortable
manner.
The Woman's Club and Sunshine
Club were given the first part of
the evening of an hour and thirty
minutes that passed away so quick
ly that those present could hardly
believe the hour had come for their
departure. The social chats and
music, mingled in symphony the
good fellowship expressed by smile
and handshake, and words Of APP
precautions.
At 4 P. M. came the younger set,
the Scilorf and X. K. X. Clubs and
many other friends. The young
folks mingled together and enjoyed
themselves immensely while many
beautiful music selections were
played.
Each one present we're given a
paper Ratchet painted like real
Ratchet, making a nice stick pin
suitable for the occasion; inside the
handle was colored illustration of
a topping cherry tree which had
received its last ticks BY George"
Probably one of the greatest
features of the evening was the
