In One Campaign or Two?

There's plenty of food for thought
in the following from the Methodist
Temperance Bulletin:
The flaming question Of the moment
is this: Will this war be won in the
campaign Of 1918 or the campaign
of 1919?
Americas preparation for an over
whelming offensive is being pointed"
for completion in time for the begin
ping Of the campaign next summer.
In order to insure the success of that
offensive. the United States must con-
tribute the very limit Of its output Of
trained men, guns, airp!anes. and mu-
nitions of all kinds. And this store
of material must be ready at the very
beginning of the campaign.
II will not do for US to be sixty days
late or thirty days late. If we are, 1t
will mean that the war cannot be won
in 1918 and that we must stand an
other twelve months of agony, waste
$40, 000 0000,0000 and needlessly sacri-
fee the lives of 100000 Americans
while we are waiting for the fighting
weather of 1919.
If we are going to be ready, it will
require our utmost speed and at the
present time the danger signals are
up and multiplying.
a department superintendent Of one
of the big tire factories in Akron,
Ohio. uses sixty men in each shift.
They are making gas masks, miners
lespirators, and other vital war ma
terial.
That department is working only
two shifts a day instead of three be-
cause of the scarcity of labor They
pay off on Friday. On one Saturday
only six of the sixty men in one shift
reported for work.
Ninety per cent of our labor trou-
b!es are due to BOOZE" says this su :
pcrintendent. If the government would
shut down on the liquor traffic we
could increase our output enormously.
There is no lack Of labor. The only
All over the country men are drift
iEg' from job to job wasting their
high wages in beer
And right now there are thousands
OF men making and distributing beer
poison in this country. Right now
our industrial output is far below the
maximum because Of beer inefficiency.
If beer is allowed to prolong this
war. causing the useless loss Of many
hundreds of thousands of men and
many billions of money. somebody is
going to pay the price once before
paid by Judas Iscariot.

zania Is 20 years old, she demonstrated
Monday that she is some speed boat,
winning a closely contested race with
the steamer Monhegan from a point
somewhere in the vicinity of Booth
bay to this port, says the Portland
Press. 1t was practically an even
thing about all the way up the coast
and when the two craft reached Half
Way rock they were bow to bow. At
White Head the Monhegan had forged
about two lengths ahead but right
after that she fell back and the III
zana beat her out by half a boat
length. Naturally the men on the ten
der were feeling good over their vic
tory and they feel that the Zizana
can still make a whole lot of coasters
