and a firm reliance on Him who
has never yet forsaken this fav-
ored land are still competent to
adjust in the best way all our
present difficulty"
The administration that has
just been placed in Office owes
its power to a party triumph
but it is none the less the adj
ministration of the United
States and of every citizen. And
Just as in the times of Madison
and Lincoln, who also were
chosen as the representatives of
parties, the honor and integrity
of the nation required that the
whole people support the admin
istration, so now the honor and
integrity of the nation require
that the whole people support
the present administration. Let
those who think that they can
range themselves in opposition
to measures Of defense and of
vindication of national rights
without leaving a stain upon
their names remember the odium
that still clings to the support
ers of the Hartford Convention
and to the "Copperheads" of
our Civil War.
But suppose the President
makes mistakes-must we stand
by him then? Yes, although we
need not defend the mistakes. Of
course he will make them. No
man is infallible. We can only
hope that they will be few and
harmless and when he makes
them, let our criticism be friend
ly. He must be our leader. He
can be neither deposed nor re-
called. For better, for worse,
our fortunes for peace or for
war are committed to the keep
ing of the administration.
No man need surrender his O.
pinions, but if he translates his
into acts hostile to the
safety and honor of the country,
or into attempts to defeat the
measures devised to that end by
the chosen delegates of the peo-
Pile, he invites and deserves the
sxecration of posterity. Youths

Defining a machine, we say, "a

just how the lookingglass may be

a very convenient machine for re-

producing a line through dense

The Duty of the Hour.

Twice before in the history of
the United States a President
has taken his oath of Office in a
time Of grave national peril.
James Madison entered upon his
second term one hundred and
four years ago-nine months
after war had been declared
against Great Britain; and the
issue Of the war was then I'M
certain. Abraham Lincoln be-
gan his first term ffty-six years
ago-eleven weeks after South
Carolina had seeded; and al
ready six other Southern States
had taken the same step. Let
us recall a few words of each of
those fathers, solemnly spoken
at his Inauguration.
"On the issue of the war;"
said Madison, "are staked our
national sovereignty Of the seas,
and the security of an impor-
tant class of citizens whose oc-
equations give the proper value
to those of every other class.
Not to contend for such a stake
is to surrender our equality with
other powers on the element
common to all, and to violate the
sacred title that every member
of society has to its protection"
Although the present situation
is not quite like that which con-
fronted Madison, Madison's
language is tremendously sug-
gestive.
Lincoln devoted his inaugural
address to a calm discussion of
the futility of secession, adj
dressed to those in the South
who "still love the Union" But
this sentence from the address
is far from being inappropriate

SAVE THE STALE BREAD

To use bread and cake crumbs as a
substitute for -four is suggested by a
high authority. Stale bread and cake
should not be thrown into the garbage
pail. because when thoroughly dried,
put through the food chopper and re-
duced to fine crumbs they may be sue
cessfully used in the proportion of one
part crumbs to two parts -four in many
recipes. Bread crumbs work in nice
ly in mullins and other warm breads
in which baking powder and soda are
the leavening agents. The crumbs
should not be used in yeast breads.
Cake crumbs may be used in spice,
caromel and devils food cakes, but
should not be used in white cakes.
If crumbs of heavy rich cake are used
It is not necessary to use SO much
sugar Cake crumbs make a good
foundation for spice buildings and are
excellent foundation for making steam
brown breads. This is the advice of

cafeteria in the Kansas State Agricul-
tural college.

was a man named Bromberg. a
wealthy business man. Christian Meis-
ner the American consul, whose at
tempt to smuggle out interned Ger
man soilors led to the declaration of
martial law, has escaped into Para.
quay through Argentina.
Reports received here from Rio
Janeiro say the government is plan
ming wholesale arrests of spies in this
state. German schools are being closed
and German priests in Catholic
schools are being Replaced by Bra
zilans.
Reports of German unrest in the
states of Santa Catharina and Rio
Grande del Sui are frequent, but the
government evidently has the aliens
well in hand and is in a position to
prevent a widespread revolt, unless
threatened by invasion by South
American neighbors. a contingency
which is widely rumored and generally
feared. In the western part of this
state the army is being increased rap
idly.
The Germans in this city and in

suit of their continued agitation and
open insults to the Brazilian govern
ment after its declaration of war on

ARIZONA LEADS
IN RETURNS TO
LIBERTY LOAN

PHOENIX, Nov. 20.-Final results

of the state with the exception of the
counties of Pima, Cochise, Santa Cruz.
Graham and Greenlee.
1t is notable that Arizona was the
first state of the Union to oversub-
scribe its maximum allotment, while
the oversubscription in Arizona has
been in larger percentage than that
reported from any other state. This
result is very gratifying to the state
and national authorities, whose main
effort has been to make the subscrip-
ton a personal one to take the bonds
into every family possible. In Arizona
there was subscription by one indi-
vidual out of fourteen, this counting
men, women and children aliens and
Indians. Altogether in the northern
counties of Arizona were 1861 sub
scriptions. divided as follows: Mari
copa. $500; ella, 1924; Pinal, 264S;
