WHATCHAMA COLUMN
By "GH."
Rabies.

The baby is a small, active
article of excitement. Its bust
ness in the world is to keep its
father and mother hopping side
ways. It can do this better than
almost anything else extant,
with the possible exception Of
the doctor bill.
The largest thing about the
baby is its appetite. Which it
exercises several dozen times a
day. You'd think they'd wear
it out. But they don't. No.
But they wear out everything
else around the place, including
mothers disposition.
: The baby is not an absolute
!: necessity. But it is customary.
The great trouble with babies
: though, iS that they stay babies.
; They grow rapidly in all direc-
; tions. They accumulate, shed
: and reaccumulate and shed
; flocks of hair and sets of clothes
: and teeth promiscuously.
: Withal, babies are great in
;stitution.

that the Food Administration as an

that his own personality be kept our

WHAT WILL YOU DO

These are the last days of the drive
for the second Liberty loan. What
you done and what are you go
Ing to do? That is the question that
now stares every red blooded Ameri-
can citizen right square in the face.
You. perhaps have bought bonds, but
the question is. have you done your
share according 10 your means? 1t
may be possible that some reader of
this hes not invested a cen in his
country's welfare. Or you may have
done your fullest share of this duty.
You are n of the three classes.
Which class would you prefer being
numbered with?
To those who have bought all the
bonds that they can possibly buy,
there is nothing 10 say. You have
done your full duty. To those who
have bought g~rudgingly, or just a lit,
tie when they could buy more, there
are many things to say. One or two
of them will bear enumeration now.
When the war is over will you be
able to look the returning soldiers
who fought for your freedom, and
spent their own money, earned by
their pay, to buy bonds, square in the
face and say, boys. | was back OF

might not have been so many. VIII

THE CROW'S=NEST

Now that the Liberty Loan drive
is about over. the next thing to alb
sorb our attention will be the nation
wide food conservation movement I'M
der the direction of Commissioner
Hoover. Already pledge cards are be
ing given out to housewives asking
them to economic on food products
that will stand shipment to foreign
countries to supply the needs of our
and the other allied armies. This
is supposed to be done by utilizing
p%erishable fruits and vegetables as far
as possible in their daily preparations
of table foods. Wheatless and meat
less days are being advocated and
strongly urged and everyone will be
asked to sign such pledges as a matter
of loyalty.
If you chance to get men of sixty
years of age and over to relate their
boyhood experiences they will tell you
that wheatless and meatless days
have not been uncommon in this coun-
try. especially in the middle west. III

narrowed your vision Of life. Hang

a few per cent more Interest has
made you so self centered that YOU
are of no good either to yourself or
your fellowmen.
Don't let this last thought BE- the
one that will remain in the hearts Of
your fellows all the rest of their lives.
Don't let this awful love of money
stand in the way of your being a man
among men. Break the shackles of a
curse that binds you faster than any
other error of human life. Be one IF
