Right of Free Speech.

Various individuals, organizations
AID ps blications, when they feel the
stern hand of the law as the result of
reasonable or seditious utterances,
are apt to cry out loudly against what
they term violation of the constitu-
tional right Of free speech" They en-
tirely overlook the fact that free
speech is gift to them from the de-
mocracy of America, conditional up
on its never being abused. No such
thing as absolute freedom is possible
to any one. In any sort of constitut-
ed society the privileges of the indivi-
dual must be governed by the good
of the community. A man has right
to drive in the streets, but if he
blocks the way of the fire wagon he
is likely to get into trouble.
In this country a man is free TO
talk as much as he pleases so long as
his talk does not besmirch his neigh
boris good name or imperil his coun-
try's liberty. The moment it does he
runs afoul of the law.-Waterloo

MOVING PICTURES TAKEN
OF THE CAMP
Gets Up at $50 in the Morning And
is Kept Good and Busy Until
Six at Night.

Camp Mills, L. l., Sept. %, 1917.
Dear Folks:
Received your letter quite while
ago, also sweater, candy and belt. I
should have written before, but you
don't know how busy we are here.
We get up at $50 in the morning
and are busy as we can be until at
night. We don't even get time to do
our washing.
Last Sunday about $4,000 of US
paraded before Secretary of War
Baker, AID Tuesday the 16Sth par
eded and was reviewed before Sem
ator Cummings and Gov. Harding of
Iowa. We also had moving pictures
taken Of us. Most likely they will be
shown in Decorah. About 1900 of
the regiment are chosen to attend
feast given by some Of the big bugs of
New York. I happe1d to be one Of
the lucky ones chosen. We leave On a
special train at 4:30 this afternoon
to different points on the Island
where these feeds are given.
Well I wouldn't be surprised if we
left for France in a day or so. The
Captain said he thought so. We got
orders to send our boxes home about
3 days ago. They were all sent to-
gether in a special car to Red Oak,
Ia, where they are unloaded and ex-
pressed to our home towns. I left
couple of pairs of army shoes in my
box for the kids. have three pairs
now, so l don't need them. also put
in some souvenirs for ma and Irene.
II have big picture about 8 feet long
of our camp that I will send home. 1t
cost me S1.00.
BY the way we are going to have
moving pictures taken of us that go
to that feast spoke of.
I got acquainted with a fellow in
Hampstead that has vulcanizing
shop about the size Of mine, and the
same kind of machinery. He has big
business, but makes the most in re-
liners and new tires and accessories
and in repairing tubes. He doesn't
touch tube for less than 35c. He
seems to be a nice fellow. He took
me for a car ride the other night in
the outskirts Of New York about %
miles from camp and also took me
to supper. Well / must close.
With love,
HARRY.

handsome scenic effects and costumes.
The company supporting Mr.. O'Hara
is made up of capable and experience
ed players. The star is heard in
number of new songs, and Mr.. o.
Hara's special orchestra will render
a choice program of classic and popu-
lar music.
