NO MAN CAN SERVE TWO
MASTERS

The time has come when all
American citizens must decide
whether to serve their country or
their pocket books, whether to en-
list in the army of patriots or the
army of profiteers. They can not
do both.
If a man loves his government and
wants to assist in every way possible
in carrying on the war program there
VIII be so many demands on his time
and money that he will have to sacri-
flee his financial interests He will
have to loan the government his
money through the purchase of Lib
erty Bonds at lower rate of inter
est than he could otherwise secure:
he will have to contribute literally to
the maintenance of Red Cross and
Y. NJ. c. A. war work: he will have
to take time from his business to de-
vote to Liberty Bond, Red Cross and
Y. NJ. c. A. drives and other forms
of service to the government: he will
have to sell his products at prices
named by the Food, Fuel and other
price fixing boards; he will have to
pay war taxes on his property,
profits and business transactions.
If, on the other hand. he loves
mammon more than he does his
country, and plans to increase his
fortune out of the war. the needs of
the government and of his country
men will afford him ample opportun-
lily. The abnormal demand for labor
and supplies and the constantly
changing market conditions offer
rare opportunities for speculation
and extortion.
some people may think that they
can make big profits out of the war
and at the same time maintain their
standing as patriots by devoting a
small portion of their gains to buv-
ing Liberty Bonds and contributing
TO the Red Cross and Y. NJ. c. A
ana by using their spare time in
spouting patriotic sentiments and
Ioud-mouthed professions of LOYALTY
Such people are deceiving them
s serves Nothing less than genuine
patriotism can stand the acid test of
inns war. No one can follow the die
tates Of patriotism and greed at the

from them for munitions work; she
has seemingly allowed prices on such
things as drygoods to climb without
restriction, probably on the theory
that this will act as the greatest
check on the use of these commodi-
ties. Even high prices, however, can
not check ali demand, apd the price
report above quoted adds that many
articles for which customers would
gladly pay the high prices demand

scarcely obtainable any more"

There is little of Germany's drama
leaking out to the outside world now.
Her censors resemble dead men" in
that they tell no tales" There is
one source of news, however, that
the censor can not bottle up. and that
is the market reports. These consti-

same time. Sooner or later their
hypocrisy will be exposed. Profits
and patriotism will not mix. Sacri-
flee and selfishness can not be held
in balance. Between the call of
country and the lure of mammon
there is a great gulf fixed.
No greater truth was ever uttered
than that embodied in the words
of Holy Writ; No man can serve
two masters; for either he will hate
the one, and love the other; or else
he will hold to the one and despise
the other
No citizen can remain half patriot
and half profiteer.

RoumanIan peasant Diversions.

"Many hands make light work." Is a
proverb of the Roumanian peasant
often put into practice. Almost every
night there is neighborhood gather
ing like the old-fashioned apple-cutting
or apple-butter boiling in early Amer
lean rural history. The houses have
their turns at these parties, and there
is always a kettle of cornmeal mush
and baked pumpkin and potatoes and
popcorn ready for the occasion. AL
hands join in the evening program of
combing, cardIng, and spinning the
household supply Of wool or flax, while
the neighborhood gossip passes current
among the elders and occasional words
Of love or childish jest among the more
youthful members Of the party.

TnLiet 81 the lion.

At Belfort the Ean Of Barthosdy is
nobler and prouder than ever. Above
all he is proud to be clean and tidy.
For some time he was very dirty
lion. The garrison that occupied the
fort just above the monument had
thrown down upon the stony animal
kitchen slops, old rags and sll kinds
Of filth. One day 1t was announced
that the prince Of Wales would visit
Belfort on the following day. The men
On police duty were ordered to clean
up against an unforeseen difficulty.
The approach to the lion was BY a
narrow passage in the rock Of which
the entrance was closed by strong
door, and the keeper of the key lid
been modified and gone. Fortunate
ly among the men on police duty was
q black sheep who had a reputation as
an expert housebreaker. He did the
trick and the door was opened. They
then proceeded with the toilet Of
the lion, which was no nice affair. The
prince arrived on the morrow and ac>
corded the lion hasty glance, He
did not know the trouble that had been
taken to make the colossus present

would have drawn on Solomons wis
dom for solution was decided by
United States Commissioner speake In
favor OF the defendant 1t was a case
Of now you see, now you don't see.
AT the conclusion OF the evidence
which was rendered by the United
States one could see IN the defendant
almost convicted felon When the
evidence for the defendant was sub
mitted 1t was easy to see that the de-
fendant had been wrongly accused.
However, he Is free, evidence In his
behalf being overwhelming.
Ed Burnett freight agent for the
Santa Fe at Purcell was arrested on
the charge of transporting intoxicating
liquor
A young man on December II en-
tered the baggage room OF the Santa
re at Kansas City and wanted case
OF baggage checked through to pur-
cell on pass. The clerk refused to
receive 1t bacause a few stray strings
of excelsior protruded from under the
lid The matter was taken to Chief
Baggage Master John r. Jones. The
young man bore Santa Fe pass IS
sued to Ed Burton, freight agent at
Purcell and protested that the baggage
room clerk had no right to refuse to
receive this, explaining that the ex-
celsior was packed around a q. sk
and an electric lamp which required
careful packing. The stranger gave
his name as Ed Burton and produced
the pass
Jones was one OF the principal witt
nesses. Before coming into the COM

sent to Purcell though followed and
broken open In the Purcell baggage
room and found to contain seventy
two pints Of whskey, Other testimo-
ny was offered by a secret agent OF
the government which tended to fix
the guilt on Burton.
Bnrton's defense.
But the evidence for the prosecution
fell flat in the face OF the testimony
for the defense. The general agent
Of the Santa Fe, the ticket agent Tor
the same company and an evangelistic
preacher to whose daughter Burton is
engaged, all testified that the freight
agent had not missed a day at his post.
Furthermore the records OF the office
were produced with notations on all
the days involved. In Burton's writing.
He had never been out of Purcell on
working day and the whiskey reach
ed Purcell on Friday. The minister
declared that he was visitor at this
home from till II o'clock on the
nights Of February is and II and that
therefore it was impossible that he
could have been in Kansas City.
The defense had not concluded its
testimony when Commissioner Speake
