sacrifice for so great a reason. 1t is
little sacrifice which in the aggre-
gate means freeing tens of thousands
of men for our Army. Surely in the
great and terrible demand that civi-
liZation is making upon those of us
who believe in Her, so small a re-
adjustment should have a universal
voluntary acceptance. There should
be no town in the country of which
its merchants should be able to say,

ahead, refused to carry their little
packages, refused to give up their
special deliveries, and their goods on
approval. 1t should be done and
done now, for now is the need. The
men are being called by the hun
dreds of thousands. We believe IN
their going. We have accepted the
awful sacrifice. The very least we
can do is cheerfully to accept the re-
adjustment suggested by those who
are making a careful and scientific
study of our commercial practices.
In Paris to-day there are only three
deliveries a week. Shall we insist on
a half dozen a day? 1t is up to the
American woman to say.
