The Nations Need.

The response that is being made by
the people to the Liberty loan is both
inspiring and encouraging. Individ-
uals and corporations alike are sub
scribing generously, among the first
of the latter being the National Bis
cult company, who took half million
dollars of the bonds. To conserve what
cur ancestors fought for and to make
the world safe for democracy, the
Liberty loan must be made a great pa
triotic success, for the future peace
and security of the world are in the
balance. Here is a real opportunity to
help the nation. Now is the time for all
good men to come to it's aid.

The stain Of selfish thirst for fame,
Undue ambitions fatal blight,
The itching palms encIouding shame
Too often dim the golden light.
But when the shining name appears
Of one whose strength was truth
and worth;
Who no ambition knew, nor fears,
Save for the country of his birth;
Who had no thought Of selfish ends,
But fought to win his country's
fight
And change her foes to loyal friends-
That name shows full effuIgence
bright.
The youthful soldiers laurels green;
The citizens plain, useful ways;
The victor's glad, yet modest mlen,
When honored with 4 nations
praise;
The manly heart that could but feel
Compassion for fallen foe;
Tho statesman's patriotic zeal
All on his name their glory throw.
The soldier Of immortal fame
The orandest chieftain Of his day
What title can precede his name
And not due honors take away7
Oh, may that name, throughout oil
time,
Desire in youthful hearts lmpIant
To emulate, In worth sublime,
The soldier and the statesman,

DEALING With Troubles.

We shrink instinctively from troubles
as we shrink from hard and painful
tasks; we cannot escape the suffering
they bring but we decide whether they
shall weaken or strengthen us. 1t lies
with us to receive them as enemies or
as friends. They offer us fortitude, pa
ticnce, courage, strength. growth or
cowardice. bitterness. despair; we can
not prevent them from coming to us.
but we can decide whether they shall
help or hinder US in our life purposes.
