On Scolding

While speaking of the cheering-up bust
ness, a friend rather fervently wants to
know why in H the government and
the newspapers don't quit scolding the peo-
pie about the war; abous saving coal and
food, about being conservation slackers,
about this, that and the other. There's
something in the argument, it must be
admitted, that the great bulk of us don't
need scolding; but it is hard to distin-
guish the sheep from the goats and apply
the necessary s~colding in specific cases.
OF course, the great mass of the people
of America are loyal and enthusiastic and
working as hard as they can to win the
war. Yet ii is necessary that there should
be a sustained and urgent appeal all the
time to keep folks moving until we get
a little further into it. 1t is necessary to
keep bombarding the public with the facts
of the situation in order to whet their
realization of the gravity of the emergency.
The fact remains, of course, that good ma
tured persistent prodding is just as eff
fectiye and more SO than scolding. Praise
of the fellows who are up in the collar
pulling their best is as effective as roast
ing those who are hanging back in the
bIeechin'. But when a scolding is handed
out, remember that it applies only to those
who need it. There are such everywhere;
there are men in this city who openly de-
nounced the Red Cross subscription as a
graft. But as we said in the beginning,
the great majority of us are the willing
est patriots you ever saw when we know
what to do. Meanwhile, when the govern
ment or its agents get after us it is well
to remember that most of us are eXercis.
ing the great American privilege Of roast;
ing the government; and the fellows who
are animated in official position by the
same high motives as we who are in the
ranks.
We all want to win this war. Every.
one wants to do every little thing and
every big thing he can to help. We dc
need to be walked up a little more; each
one to take it home to himself a little
more; each one to feel a little more heav
lily the pressure of individual responsible
lty. And the appeal and scolding business
is to a large extent one of the necessary
concomitants of the democratic way oil
doing it. 1t takes a lot more converse
ton to persuade a man to do something
than it does to force him to do it. But
it is we'll to bear in mind both on the
part Of scolds and the scolded, that we
simply have a great big job that has to be
done and We can do it a lot more effect
lively and efficiently by being cool and
level headed and good natured and pleas
antly formidable about it.

LlNcoLN's DIMENSION
tBoston Herald}

Abraham Lincoln was not an extremely
awkward man. He seemed so because his
dimensions we're unusual. Fancy him in a
large assemblage of men of equal stature
and probably much OF the "awkwardness'
would disappear.
A mar four inches more than six feet in
height looks ungainly when he occupies a
chair in which a man four inches under
six feet seems comfortable. h furniture
which President Lincoln had to use was
not designed for giants. When he rode
a horse he sometimes looked grotesque.
In action he often was ungraceful. But in
repose, when listening, reading or resting,
often when writing, he lacked little of I'M
conscious grace. And when in action as
an orator, especially during his later years.
his seriousness of n and intense ear
nestness made his gestures, executed with
arms Of great length, forceful rather than
elegant, yet offering small inducement to
the caricaturist.

to board his train witt a level eye and a
square jaw and a cool grin-surely you,
who stay at home. can show courage suf-
ficient to smile at him and hearten him
up by an exhibition of your own fortitude
and determination when he departs. or
course, it isn't the easiest thing to do;
but your part is easier than his. Let's
make no mistake about this. You are
hurting his morale and imposing a dou-
BILE burden on him when you make the part
ing an ordeal. The Y. M. G. A. in the
training camps has been compelled 10 es-
tablish a "Buck-up Bureau" whose bust
ness it is to slap the recruit on the back
and poke him in the fifth rib after
he has had a session with his mother or
sister or the Girl from Back Home. For
get it," they tell Sammy, with a breezy
josh. THE old girl will get over that;
she feels a lot better to have you making
a man of yourself than she would If you
stayed at home; she'll get over that and
we can't have any long faces around this
camp"
OF course, that helps; but nothing helps
like making your boy feel when he leaves
home that you are not worrying about
him, that you expect him back-and he has
all the best of it so far as chances are
concerned-and that you are tickled to
death that he has a chance to make good
for his country. You get the idea. Help
aim; don't put a weight on him.
Write him CHEEKY letters; tell him things
are going splendidly, everybody's Dragging
ON him for doing his bit, and to keep his
mind on tha business Of hitting the hall
Make him feel he's a lucky guy to get to
go. This is your bit. OF course, it isn't
easy. Making war isn't easy any way
you look at it. But don't sit around and
NOPE because your family has the high
honor of being represented in the trenches,

duty ia we'll performed, no government
can prevent Its army from succeeding.
What Is that duty? We have seen no
statement as succinct and accurately put
as the pledge offered and taken by a dis
tinguished citizen of North Carolina, Mr..
James II. Pou. Said he;
propose that we take upon ourselves
five simple but solemn pledges. | have
personally taken each and all, and, God
being my helper, ] will keep all. Here
they are:
/. We pledge ourselves not to say or
do anything during this war which will
weaken the hands OF the government, or
which could give aid, comfort or encour-
agement to the enemy.
2. We pledge ourselves during this war
to do promptly and cheerfully all which
our government shall ask us to do, the
same being in our power.
3. We pledge ourselves not to. support
any candidate for office who does not
whole-heartedly support our country's cause
in this war.
4. We pledge ourselves not to let the
family of a soldier suffer for want of any
thing we can supply.
8. We pledge ourselves to give prefer
ence in all things, where practicable, to
the soldier who went and did his duty
over thee man of military age and fitness
who did not 80.
We like especially the personal char
acter of Mr.. Pou's pledge. 1t is not enough
to pay a tax n subscribe to a bond
support officialdom by complying with its
official demands. There are positive acts,
services and abstentions, downright day
by-day doing, which each of us as an indi-
vidual must faithfully think out for him
self and perform II our nation as a nation
is to prevail. II every American does
those things to the limit of his ability
there is no power in or out of Berlin, or
in or out of Washington, that can stop us.

BAYoNET COMES INTO
ITS OWN IN WORLD WAR

The, action of the war department in or
dering that our soldiers shall be instructed
in the British manual of the bayonet, is
interesting in more ways than one. 1t in
dicates that the flashing point of cold steel
has regained its place as a fighting wea'
pom of the first importance.
In the American army during recent
years there has been relatively little at
.tention to this part of the recruits train
ing; in the latest edition of the infantry
drill regulations, one will find the various
thrusts, guards and parties tucked away
in the last rs pages of the book. The
course of events on the western front has
shown, however, that the skill and preci-
sion in the use OF the bayonet are essen
tials to success in trench fighting. Like
wise it has been demonstrated during tho
last two years that no scheme of training
which treats the manual of the bayonet
as a species of fencing exercise will ever
train men in the effective use OF the wea-
pom.
The British manual il based upon the
principle that when a soldier uses his bay
onet he uses it to kill. The fact that we
are substituting it for our W is one OF
the signs that we are not disdainful OF
what the world has learned about real war
fare in these latter days.-Boston Herald.

EpIsoN,s QUICK DEMONSTRATION

At his laboratory one day Thomas Edi-
son called a new assistant to his desk,
II want you" he said, "to figure out the
cubic contents Of this electriclight bulb"
The young man went away and spent
hours at the task, using all the mathe-
MATES at his command, filling sheets Of
paper with his figures. Finally he went
back to Edison with his answer. Lets
see If you're right" said the big man.
He broke the tip off the bulb, filled
the thing with water and then measured
the water in a graduated glass. In two
minutes he had done what his assistant
had given most of a day to.
This independence of formulate is one OF
the secrets OF Edison's success. Isn't it
the secret Of success OF most great men?

Our Yuletide loss
Was simply shocking,
Due to the holes in
Our Christmas stocking.
On Being Consistent
(Fort Sumner Review

Most of the talk on economy is con-
fined to the conservation of foodstuffs,
but it takes money to buy bonds. In
stead of stinting the consumption of lux.
uries like bread and meat, why not do
without a few necessities like whiskey
and tobacco. To cut the latter off en-
tirely would prove fatal to but few whom
the world would be better without. 1t
might cause some physical inconvenience,
but what don't kill can be survived. Col
lars and neckties are a bothersone and
useless possession and the saving would
be immense if we would all quit their
use. Jewelry, cosmetics, perfumes, etc
could be done without, without any in
convenience. 1t should be made a felony
punishable by hard labor on a farm for
any man or woman to wear more than
$25 worth of clothing at one time, Some
of the heightened" ladies would say $25
would only buy one minor garment, hut
better that than putting a thousand dol
lar dress on a thirty-cent frame.

For the Stay-at-H Homes

II any one ever had a notion that Off
cialdom could win a war, the events OF
the past months in all the allied countries
have pretty well ended the idea. 1t is
everywhere the people who have gone to
war, and having gone to war 1t is every
where the people who have shown the
courage and initiative and wild and have
forced their officials to fight the war.
So the duty Of the stay-at-home, says
the New York Tribune, of the man and
woman behind the lines, becomes the para
mount factor. If that duty is Ill perform
ed, no army can hope to prevail. II that

In the reorganization and repopulation OF
Palestine, which now seems possible. it
is likely that the government of the new
nation will take measures to refuse citi-
enship to and possibly to exclude alto
gether the 1851, Jos Germans and Aus.
TRANS and the 7,770,479 Russians and Poles.
One million American Jews could make
of Palestine a great little nation.
