wHEKE THE BRITISH. HAVE EN
CELLED.

On this page today is published in
teresting observations by Jack Rem
ington, military expert WHO writes
comment on the European war for
the st. Paul Dispatch. Neither Eu.n-
ington nor the Dispatch could be call
ed pro-German by the greatest stretch
of theima gination.
Remington describes what. he re-
CARDS as, a great superiority shown
by the British over the Germans in
this war, and that, is in th'a press
agent work done by their enterpris-
ing publiciste.
The Republican has been s1sisting
for months that the United States has
acquired distorted view of the Eu-
ropean war, because it has had one
side presented persistently and clever
ly and extensively, and the other side
presented scantily and almost stup-
idly.
There can be Pc question that the
British put it all over the Germans
when it comes to the matter Of, sling
ing printers ink, no matter how
much tie Germans may have excel
ed in the hurting of missiles oi' war.
The British even to this day ask
with The utmost blandness and with
an air of finality, when one talks of
peace: "But what about Belgium"
And al the same moment their mill
tary agents are compelling the gov
eminent of Grsece to disarm it's osn
soldiers. experimenting the act OF
the British and their allies in TAX
ing possession of Greek soil from
which to attack the Teutons and iBul-

capable of taking very calm view
of the violation of the independence
of Greece and at the same time be-
come fairly Mortified by the Germans
act in overrunning Belgium and ire
sent the British kingdom as the pro
tsctor of little nations
The Republican has insisted trbm
the first that, generally speaking, one
siae is as bad as the other, all cons d.
ered; that neither alliance is compl,s-
ed wholly of angels nor altogether
OF devils. If that isn't taking a neu-
trail view of their comparative merits
and dement's in the conduct of Gle
war what is? And it is the easier ltc
assume because it COMFORTS with tise
facts.

Immediately after Lloyd George's

part Of Europe's statesmen to put an

These are most expressive words.
they picture to the Imagination
thousands and hundreds of thousands
of the people of Great Britain, sick
of the war and all it's horrible bust
ness, yearning with a great desire
for peace. No doubt there are thous-
ands of prayers going up from the
British Isles daily, asking that the
rulers of Europe be moved to bring
the war to 81 end.
And more than this. AS the Man
chester paper says, the great COM
mon people of every one of the bel
ligerent countries is hungering for
peace and its blessings
From all Of Europe, if they could

LET'S HAVE THE FAIR

The decision of the Boone County
Fair directors to give up the idea OF
having fair this year is to be re-
GREETED. Boone County needs fair,
especially when its farmers are in
terested in producing their maximum
to help in the food drive.
Aside from the social significance
of county fairs, their economic value
is underestimated. A fair affords op-
portunity for farmers to come togeth-
er and learn what their neighbors
are doing. The plan of offering prizes
for farm products and live stock is
an incentive to do better things in
farm production.
The county fair helps to keep boys
and girls on the farm. 1t raises the
dignity of farm life, and arouses their
interest in better live stock anG COM
munity life. The fact is impressed
upon them that they are vital factor
in the chain of food production.
The farmers wife has an oppor-
tunity to display her preserves and
jellies, while her daughter may place
her needlework in competition with
that of her city cousins. Besides the
value of better foodstuffs, the appeal
to the instinct of workmanship can
not be overestimated

A WAR FOR DEMOCRACY

In the midst of the tremendous war
preparations of the United States for
its struggle for democracy" and
against Prussian autocracy in partic-
ular, comes the news that Great Brit
ain, through its premier, David Lloyd
George, has granted amnesty to all
political prisoners of ireland.
The struggle of the Irish for home
rule and the principles of democracy
in their determination to retain their
national unity has been going on for
centuries. But the entrance of the
United States into the world struggle,
largely brought about by the inhuman
crushing of Belgium, Serbia and 9TH
er small nations, finds this small ma
tion still in the throes of rebellion
against the efforts of England to cast
it into the melting pot of Great Brit
ain.
When the United States decided to
lend its aid in making the rights of
small nations sacred in the future,
it was predicted that one of the first
moves this country would make would
be to request that Great Britain settle
its difficulties with ireland. That the
democratic ideals of this country have
had some effect towards this end may
be Inferred from the granting of am
nesty to Irish political prisoners only
two months after our entrance into
the war.
Granting the Irish home rule SIM
ply means giving this small nation
the right to maintain its individual
ity. 1t would in no way ALLEVIATE. it
from its place as part of the great |
English empire-rather, it would bind |
it by closer ties by eliminating the
spirit of unrest that prompts almost

Properly Feed Rockies.
| By United Press
WASHINGTON, July 5.-The Ma.
tional army will be well fed if prepa-
ration counts for aught. The general
staff is working on plan to feed more
than a half million rockies who will
assemble in the sixteen cantonments
for training next fall. The variety OF
the menu, necessarily limited to the
regular army ration, will be prepared
and served properly.
In recent wars the grub" of the
valiant volunteer has been the object
of scandal. 1t was "embalmed beef"
in the Spanish War On the border
last year the National Guard howled
Justify against the army mess. The
answer was incompetent cooks.
To guard against repetition of such
complaints, the General Staff has COM
pleted plans to train gigantic army
of cooks before the cantonments open.
Within a few weeks thousands of
young men will be modified and in
structed in the art of military culi-
nary.
The instruction will include how to

Another fault with business, accord

Every business should have room for
both. He also stresses the necessity

of some sort of system of bookkeep-

where they stand every day.
Business, he continues, exists for

Dandruf Soon
Ruins the Hair

Giris-if you want plenty of thick.
beautiful, glossy, silky hair, do by all
means get rid of dandruff, for it will
starve your hair and ruin it If you
don't.
1t doesn't do much good to try to
brush or wash it out. The only sure
way to get rid of dandruff is to dis
solve it, then you destroy it entire
ly. To do this, get about four ounces
of ordinary liquid arvon; apply it at
night when retiring; use enough to
moisten the scalp and rub it in gent
ly with the finger tips.
BY morning, most if not all, of
your dandruff will be gone, and three
Hor four more applications will COM
pletely dissolve and entirely destroy
every single sign and trace of it.
You will find. too, that all itching
and digging of the scalp will stop,
and your hair will look and feel a
hundred times better. You can get
liquid arvon at any drug store. 1t
is inexpensive and four ounces is all
you need, nc matter how much dan
druff you have. This simple remedy
never fails.-AdV

that men cannot be vigorous, nor
women checked, fully developed
and beautiful while the nerves are
shattered or exhausted. or the body
and brain deficient in nerve tissue.
Take for instance thin folks; they
lack sound, healthy flesh because
they do not assimilate their food
properly. They may eat heartily but
their food does not make flesh. Sim
ply because the assimilative organs
are lacking in nerve force. And that
is why they suffer from various dis
orders. And there are scores of men
and women getting along in years,
who are almost physical and mental
wrecks-who feel 'all in," despond-
ent and have no courage to again
try and restore the. nerve vitality
that once enabled Athem to live
happy, prosperous, contented lives.
Organic phosphate is one of the con-
stituent elements of nerve tissue and
energy and unless the system is SUD-
piled with the nerve tissue making
elements so necessary to robust
health. strength and longevity, the
sufferer might go along doctorinG
for years without benefit and finally
die a premature death. Organic
phosphate to be most effective should
be in an unadulterated form, such
as bitro- phosphate. I myself take 1t
whenever my nerve vitality gets low
from overwork. 1t seems to supply
