When passion kicks reason out of
the door, when flaming patriotism's
ruddy glare lights up the lowering
clouds. it is far easier and safer to
march with the crowd than to stand
i'll its way. Lloyd-George was stoned
when he objected to the Boer war and
its attendant brutalities; Lord Hal
danes name became a byword merely
because he refused to alter his opin-

life. In a period of hysterical excite

LIGHT FROSTS Do NO
DAMAGE TO VEGETATION,

While last Tuesday night was ex-
ceptionally cold for this season and
frost was noticed in many places,
practically no damage could be de-
tected to vegetables or fruit In
many places the wet ground was froz-
en- almost hard and all signs pointed
to a blight The potatoes, however,

The JOY Of Work That AccOmplishes
milwaukee Journal)

milwaukee Journal
The idle man knows nothing of the
real joys of life For pleasure-seek-
ing pals after time One loses in
terest in life Work is the blessing
of mankind The mind of the idle man
wastes for want of use. He loses the
highest pleasures of friendship; for
it is too great an effort for himself to
show himself friend. He loses the
iov Of seeking a goal For him there
are no aims in life, no heights to be
attained. The worker FORCES ahead
to win them; the idle man is left be-
hind. Is it any wonder that the idle
mind becomes prone to evil thinking?
The Italian says: "The devil tempts
other men, the idle man tempts the
devil"
The real Joys in life are found in
doing something worth while. the
aim of some young persons to reach a
place where they never need do any
work is a false ambition. Could they
gain that place. they would find it's
taste like the apples in SOdom. The
idle man has not his own respect nor
that of others. Useful work is the on
ly currency of life Work and work
only brings the healthiest state OF
mind and the greatest satisfaction.

Too bad that really while the volun-
teeT service and selective draft will
take the best, most industrious and
brightest of young men, some of the
idle loafers couldn't be forced right
along and put under the dicipline
they so sadly need. There are plenty
OF them-stalwart, strapping young
fell0ws-and the army would do them
a world of good and perhaps make
men of them. The trouble is most of
them are so indispensable that they
can't hold Job and the army won't
take them either Too bad.

Loud-drumming aeroes; fading stars;
Soft-fingered searchlights, picking out
The night-hid legions circling bout.

A flight; a chase; a swarming hive

Redden the scene from as many pyres.

There are MANY who feel that a
great error was made in not accept
ing the Roosevelt offer and that a
great chance was overlooked to strike
a blow at Germany Roosevelt may
not be soldier according to modern
ideas but he is a clever, magnetic
man who has the qualities of a Mo
harmed Men would have rallied to
his standard from every corner of the
country afre with patriotic motives
and a desire to serve under great
leader. In France, Mr. Roosevelt
would probably have assumed charge
Of brigade and taken a soldiers or

done on this side of the water.

There may be an inkling of truth in
the declaration of the socialist Ra-
gust who maintained that national
disasters were necessary to create
patriotism. Where Raguse fell down
and fell down hard, was in declaring
that our public officials were respons-
ible for murder in order to incite pat
riotic fervor On the other hand it
seems almost sure that nothing short
OF snnken war vessels, casualty lists
and frightfulness striking at our own
citizens, will make the people, realize
that Uncle Sam is really at war.

Now more than ever calm poise
is essential for a successful outcome
Of our national business The frame
Of mind which is neither lingo nor
pacif1st, which declines to see dan
ger at every hand nor will it obstin-
ately refuse to recognize real perils,
must ultimately be the outlook of the
average man in this country. In other
words we have the extreme radical
and the ultra conservative with us al
was. One seeks to drive us into hys
terra and the other to lull us to sleep
with sedatives so that we may pass
t bv our troubles and not recognize
them. Between the two lie the mass
of the people with a serious but not
/ tragic vision Of affairs. The great
public that has faith in its servants
and loyalty toward their acts in q
time of common danger. Let US be
philosophers enough to realize that
as out of chaos we came SO may we be
driven to conditions far more arduous
than our tight roofs, three meals &

full but bucolic existance. In any
event-LET Us BE MEN!

STEAMERS TO BE EQUIPPED
 WITH ALARMS
Aero Fire System Will Be Placed on Pacific S. S. Company'S
 Line of Boats.

Contracts have been let by the Pacific Steamship Company to the Aero Fire Alarm Company for the equipment of all it's steamers with the alarm system installed by that company. This contract, when com pleted, will equip all of the Amcri. can passenger carrying ships work ing in the Alaska trade, with the exception of the smaller independ- ent boats, with this system of locat- ing fires on board ship.d
 The first vessels of the Pacific Steamship Company fleet to be equipped will be the President and Governor, to be followed by the in. stallation on tho other ships of the company, including [all of those on the Alaskan run. When completed, the entire Pacific fleet of the Great Northern Steamship Company, the Alaska Steamship Company and the Pacific Coast Steamship Company will have been equipped in this way.
 The Aero alarm system consists of a system Of thermostats installed in all parts of the ship and connect ed with an indicating system in the pilot house of the vessel Immed- lately on the outbreak of a fire the sudden raise in temperature causes the fuse in the thermostat to burn out. which causes the alarm to sound, and the indicator gives the exact location of the fire. which can then be fought and brought un- der control before gaining enough headway to become dangerous.
