ourselves as to the future. Our gov
eminent, in each and every depart
ment, is engaged in an earnest aGd
whole souled effort to carry on the

way.
They are entitled to the common
dation of all good people, and I am
sure will secure the most cordial
support. Friendly and sympathetic
criticism, or, rather, caution, may
be helpful and may be needed when
given in that spirit. The greatest
danger that confronts us as a nation
in the immediate future is CUR
RENCY INITIATION AND THE
CONSEQUENT UNSETTLING OF
VALUES.
Of course this will be avoided by
our government.
The United States is the one first

it is unquestioned Credits come tc
us freely from all countries in the
confident belief that they "a at any

which the creditor may desire.

Picked Fies.-FOr this recipe use
