War Stimulates Invention.

The inventiveness of the human mind has received an impetus by the war such as no event in ancient or modern history has produced. One of the minor evidences of this fact comes out in the trenches and dug outs on the western front, where one or the troubles arises from lack of light.

has been in charge Of the local re-

succeeded by l.. Tingley, in charge
OF the local recruiting Office.
The local Office Is in receipt OF in
structions from the department at
Washington. clearing up some moot
ed questions regarding the registra-
ton law.
Among them are;
Registration is no bar to enlist
ment in the regular army, but when
a man has once been selected for
the new army he cannot enlist In
the regular army.
Men accepted for enlistment prior
to June ), but not actually enlisted
before that date must register.
Captain Huebscher in charge OF
the army reoruiting Office at Portland
wires the local Office stating that
progress in recruiting work IL
unsatisfactory. He SAYS that
a recruitingf campaign OF 80
days has netted less than 80 per cent
OF the war quota for the regular ar
my. There are 81 new regiments
being formed at 1S concentrating sta
tions, which means that 100 900 re-
cruits are needed Immediately
Every days delay in raising these re-
cruts means time lost In training
and preparation.
Captain Huebscher urges that re-
cruiting be speeded up to maximum
intensity.

ton by about 200 per cent, but it

EACH IN HIS PLACE

A great war Is a nations supreme
test. To conduct a war successfully
requires marshalling all the ma
tion's resources as we'll as its ply
sical strength. 1t is the part Of the
young men to make the nations
physical strength felt on the firing
line. It is the part Of those who
cannot give their services at the
front to be the sustaining forces be-
hind the line. It is the part Of the
women to fill in the roles that the
men have been playing and to keep
up the nations efficiency. 1t is the
part OF those who can afford It to
lend their capital to enable the ma
ton to prosecute the war with the
greatest effectiveness.
It is inconceivable that the people
OF the United States will ever be call
ed upon to meet the privations which
this war forced upon the people Of
Europe. Five million European
homes have been visited by death
itself. Fine cities have given place
to ruins. Rich and poor have gone
on government food rations; indi-
vidual liberty has been sacrificed to
national unity OF action in order to
gain rational efficiency. Women,
who have been accustomed to fine
clothes and the constant round OF
entertainment. have taken their place
as day laborers in munition factories.
All Of this sacrifice has been made
for a cause that is as much ours as
theirs. The violation OF the neutral
ity of Belgium was just as much an
affront to America as to Great Brit
ain. German autocracy threatens
the perpetuity Of free institutions
everywhere alike.
The important thing now is for
Americans to realize that this is our
war and as participants, we must dc
our utmost to bring It to success

On the threshold. in the hall.
Joining in the constant cry.
Ever as the days go by

This same question comes again;
From the boy with sparkling eyes,
Bearing home the earliest prise;
From the Bronsed and bearded son,
Perils passed and honors won
where's Mother?"
Burdened with q lonely task.
One day we may vainly ask
For the comfort OF her face.
For the rest of her embrace.

Well for us that we can say

MOST AWFUL
8 YEARS IN
HISTORY PASS
Staggering Flow Given Civiliza-
ing by Impending War.
International. News Service Staff
Correspondent.

New York, July 28.-The three
most awful years in the worlds
hitOry are drawing to a close.
Three years ago next Wednes-
day, August 1, Germany declared
war on Russia, precipitating a con-
fict which has killed five million
soldiers and certainly over a mil
lion civilians-perhaps many
more; cost directly between seven
ty-fve and a hundrde billion dol
lars, and piled up a sum in human
woe entirely incalculable and III
comprehensive.
Not a corner of the earth has
been too remote to feel the effect
Of the forty million or more men
who have gone forth to war. Not
an intelligent being but has been
stirred to his depths by the dread
full w~asteful fire that has scouraged
the globe.
From a petty Balkan quarrel,
resulting in the seizure of Bosnia
and Herzegovina by Austria and
i'll the assassination Of the heir to
the throne of the dual monarchy
and his consort by r~esentful Jugo-
Slavs, the confagration has spread
to every continent and every land.
Most of the world is directly invol-
vel in war, and in the non-beliger-
ent countries questions stiddel up
by the conflict are the subject Of
