TOY SCOUTS are not the only chaps

renewed interest is being taken in their
work because of a campaign for 500. 600
girl scout members that is being held
IN this country now. More than two
thirds Of the states have troops Of girl
scouts. When our diplomatic relations
with Germany were severed. the offer

THE WAR AND BASEBALL

TORMER GOVERNOR JOHN *.
TENER, discussing the possibili-
ties of the coming season, says
that despite the war "the people
must have baseball"
There have been and are those who
believe that all forms of enjoyment,
recreation and sport should be dis
continued for the period of our con-
fict with Germany, but Mr.. Tener
is not one of them. 4 hard worker
from his childhood, the former Gov
ernor plays just as hard as he works.
That is why he is still young at an
age when many men are beginning
to feel their years. 1t should be so
with all of us. We shall grow stale
if we do nothing but work. "All work
and no play makes Jack a dull boy"
The harder we work the more are
we in need of diversion, and the
American public's great outdoor re-
creation is baseball. The boys took
their baseball outfits with them to
France; where is the harm in con-
tinuing the game at home?

PUBLISH THE DISLOYAL

EFT us have a published list of
those people who won't buy
Liberty Bonds, who decline TO
join the Red Cross and who refuse
to subscribe to Y. M. c. A. or knights
of Columbus war work funds, Let
us know who they are, so that we
may treat them for what they are.
BY that we do not mean poor folks
who cannot buy bonds or those who
can give reasonable excuse for fail
ure to assume a share of the private
citizens burden of the war, but
those who are prompted to withhold
their means by mere perversity of
spirit.
The time has come when those
who are not for the nation must be
regarded as against it. The sheep
must be separated from the goats. AS
German or Austrian in the United
States, unless known by years of as
sociation to be absolutely loyal,
should be treated as potential spy.
Keep yours eyes and ears open.
Whenever any suspicious act or dis
loyal word comes to your notice COM
municate at once with the Bureau
of Investigation of the Department
of Justice.
We are at war with the most
merciless and inhuman nation in the
world. Hundreds of thousands of its
people in this country want to see
America humiliated and beaten to
her knees, and they are doing, and
will do, everything in their power to
bring this about
Take nothing for granted. Energy
and alertness in this direction may
save the life of your son, or husband,
or your brother. a sure sign of dis
loyalty is failure to purchase a bond
or to subscribe to the war funds,
providing of course, the person So
licited is financially able to do so.
BY all means let us have the names
of those who insist on aiding Ger
many by Withholding their dollars
from the United States, so that we
may file them in our notebooks for
reference. Our people have right
to know who's who, patriotically
speaking, in Harrisburg.

WHEATLESS THERE

We are born in this Georgia valley
with single eye" for three things,
the weather, the harvest and AL
mighty God. We have had practice
in keeping our vision clear and our
attention fixed on the main job. We
heard much, for example, about
"wheatless days and 'meatless
days" But for us, this has been a
"wheatless" year. The freeze in Feb
ruary destroyed all the grain in this
section. We live on corn bread. 1t
is the best, most nourishing bread in
the world except for Yankees and
foreigners who do not know how to
prepare it.
And even of corn we have had
little enough. Last summer the
floods destroyed two-thirds of the
crop, so we could no, -ten plss
during the winter Therefore we
have had meatless days a-plenty, and
thought nothing tragic about that.
For we have had an abundance of
butter, milk and eggs. We have not
suffered and we have never had bet
ter health. Nearly every young sim
gle man of draft age in the valley
has been called and accepted in the
National Army. Not one has been
returned to us as physically unfit"
We are very proud Of this record.
We just sent them down to Camp
Gordon in their Sunday clothes. and
told them to do the best they could
that probably they would not worry
about wrist watches and the time of
day when they got in sight of the
enemy's trenches.
We are strongely quiet about these
young men. We have uttered not
one word of complaint. We are just

EARN LOAN BONDS

-, ENATOR PENROSE has given
notice that he will contest the
~ effort of Democrats in the SEN
ate to pass the Hollis amendment to
the federal farm loan act authoriz-
ing the Secretary of the Treasury to
purchase S10O,00O,000 worth of
bonds from farm loan banks in 1918
and as many more in 1919. The SEN
ator has raised a very proper OBJ
lection. A careful inquiry should
proceed any such legislation, es-
pecially as it has been pretty gen.
orally understood that some of the
farm loan banks have not been as
carefully conducted as the principles
of good business demapd. At all
events we have gotten Mlready too
far along in the habit of voting hun
dreds of millions of dollars in a few
minutes and without debate. 1t will
be well to go slow with this latest
proposal.
