THE MOTHERS WARNING

so you're going on your Journey,
Wen, dear, l wish YOU joy:
And while you wander from our roof
Touch not a drop, my boy.
Touch not a drop Of that which
blights
So many in our day;
OH scorn the poison-mingled cup
Whate'er your mates may say.
Your mother is your truest friend
And next to God is she;
Heed your mothers warning voice
Wherever you may be.
1t seems but a brief time, my boy,
Sir-1 on my Bonded knee
l taught you to repeat the prayer,
Our Fathef," after me,
Come, promise me the lips that kiss
Your mother dear today,
Shall be as pure when you return
To mothers home I pray.
It may be we shall never meet
Within this hallowed place;
Your mothers eyes again in life
May never see your face.
I'll wipe away the g1thernt tears
How childish have grown;
Your vacant chair shall haunt me
long
When I shall sit alone.
And what / know of sunshine bright.
And every ray of joy
Which lights upon my lonely path
Shall be my absent boy.
But you're ready for your journey,
Both hands, wish you JOY;
Remember mothers parting words,
Touch not a drop, my boy.

The Quickest Way, Now,
To Peace. Is to Prepare
For a Long, Hard War

Talk Of peace fears that England Will
soon be starved out and predictions that
the present Allied successes mean an
early end 70 the war should be put away
on the shelf by Uncle sam.
In spite Of the recurrent hurries Of
talk on the big features of the war the
Allies don't want peace without a vic
tory. England cannot possibly be starved
in long time and Germany isn't licked
until licked on her own territory.
Revolution in Germany might settle
things suddenly at any time, but Ger
mans are not Russians.
Speculation on these points may be the
business of unattached diplomats and
news correspondents, but it has no place
in Uncle Sans program, and it can only
have the effect Of confusing.

slightest degree. influence prosecution Of

cilities, in providing all the various
of war, we should go ahead exactly as if
war was TO continue for a generation or
more, with our nation bearing the big
part of the burden.
We should aim at nothing less than
full power to win, no matter how large
the power demanded.
There is no longer any room or excuse
for pacifiSm or apathy.
Hope that the war may end this year
is legitimate but it must not influence,
one particle, our preparation for an in
definite struggle.
The war business is a business in which
the only insurance is adequate power
We have allies, but our first policy should
be to prepare to rely upon ourselves
alone.
1t may not finally prove to have been
necessary, but II will mean national
safety.
These remarks are particularly appli-
cable to the matter of promoting increas-
ed production of foodstuffs.
While the agitation for city gardens
and greater individual effort may yield
surprising results this year it is not too
early to begin systematic effort for big
ger crops next season.
This season the efforts have been spo-
radio and largely without system.
There should be just as much order
and system about conscrpting vacant
lots as about conscripting backward men

We Need That Recorders
Court Grand Jury NOW,
Mr.. Wayne Prosecutor

II was against public policy, The Time
believes, for the Wayne county auditor
to withhold the peculations of Anthony
]. Kloka, mortgage tax clerk, from pub
lefty, and to allow Kloka to keep his
place in the county treasIrers Office
after they knew his irregularities.
The auditors may submit, however
that they have saved the taxpayers the
$4,000 Kloka misappropriated and pro-
tected them, by exacting the return of
$4,000 in cash and bond TO cover any
loss up to $4,000.
They had Kloka, too, in a position
where he could be watched and where ne
was rendered quite harmless.
Any promise of immunity they have
made to Kloka would amount to nothing,
but the auditors deny having made any
such promise.
It reflects upon the auditors that the
regulations of Kloka would still be I'M
known to the public if there had not
been a change in county treasurers. and
1t is only natural, in view of all the cir
cumstances, that there are suspicious
that Kloka has Jared better than he
would ha%e Jared but for others impli-
Gated.
These reports call for the most thoro
investigation-an investigation that can
not be made to the complete satisfaction
Of everybody without the arrest and pros
ecution of Kloka.
No, it makes no difference really
whether the auditors erred in their judg-
ment, Kloka's prosecution is NOW de-
manded.
And we suggest to the prosecuting at
torney of Wayne county, in view of what
has come to light, that right now would
be pretty good time for him to cease
his opposition to recorders court grand
jury, so that tribunal may go ahead and
get at the bottom of things HERE

Under Guise of Patriotism
We Must Not Permit the
Exploitation of Our Children

This world war into which we have
entered to make the world safe for
democracy must not be allowed to de-
stroy any of the safeguards We have by
slow, painful steps erected for the cause
Of democracy.
Aside from the strain and stress of
battle, danger turks in every war.
The unsleeping forces of greed and
selfshness are always on watch to regain
lost ground.
Much has been said and rightly so as
to how this country can profit from the
experience Of those other great democra-
cies-England and France.
Our allies can teach us much about
warfare in the trenches and on the seas.
They can also give US much guidance
concerning matters at home.
And one of the lessons the allies can
teach us is that we must not throw our
children into the furnace of war.
There must be no wholesale suspension
of restrictions of the hours children are
permitted to labor.
There must be no let-up in child wei
fare work.
There must be no paralysis of school
systems.
At the beginning Of the war, in Eng
land and France, in the frantic endeavor
to increase the industrial output neces-
sary for carrying on the struggle, chill
dren were thrown into the factories AS
II they were so much fuel for a fire.
The cry was that everyone, even the
children, must do their bit.
And then came the aftermath.
Young girls and boys quickly showed
the physical strain of long hours of con-
finement in the factories, whether doing
day work or night work.
Education was being neglected.
Morals were being affected
England and France were fighting TO
make the liberties Of the next genera
tons secure and, while doing so, were
denying those very generations the
chance to grow up strong in body. edu-
Gated in mind and clean in spirit.
The result was there had to be speedy
return to restriction of child labor, to en-
forcement of school laws and to all safe
guards necessary for child life.
The danger England and France faced
and speedily took steps to overcome, is
facing us now.
Already in highly industrial states like
New Jersey, Pennsylvania and New York.
there have been defense" proposals to
suspend or repeal child labor laws which
were put upon the statute books only
