NOT BIT" BUT UTMOST

The expression. do your Bit" became popular in England
when the war was still regarded as a storm that would soon blow
over.
Then came the tragedy of Ypres with it's appalling English
losses. and England and her girding commonwealth faced the
grim truth, that the war was a life and death struggle with the
.autocratic power of Germany-that the invasion of Belgium was
| a violation of the good faith of the nations-that imperial Prussia
must be punished or her dogma of might is right" would drive
from the world those principles of democracy that now bind to-
gether the British Empire.
A great people faced a great danger, and the triviality of
doing ones bit" disappeared. Not ones bit, but ones utmost was
demanded of every citizen of the United Kingdom.
Every nerve as strained toward that maximum of efficiency
necessary for NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. were put in high gear, the manu-.
cut down. food waste reduced to a minimum, women substitutes
for men in factory and feld-in short every force was directed to
the common end. the defeat of Germany.
England did not accomplish this reorganization in a day or
a month; but day by day. as war became the prime factor direct
ing all business, the single purpose of the Empire imposed itself
upon the interests of the individual. The spirit of embattled Eng
land was emblazoned one day through the streets of London by
women workers in munition plants. On this banner was the legend:
DROP EVERY MORTAL THING AND SEND THEM
PLENTY OF MUNITIONS"
This today. is the imperative call of America to every citizen,
Drop every mortal thing and send them plenty of munitions, fuel,
food and ships" Does personal business block the way? Sweep
it aside. stand by the soldiers, we owe them everything.
Not "bit" but utmost, is our country's need. What is bit?
According to the dictionary the smallest quantity; a whit; a jot.
Is a bit then the offering of America to a bleeding world? A
bit. the toll a patriot pays for the defense of the flag? A "bit'
the price we pay for sons who give their all that we may live?
The war has reached a grave crisis. Americas share grows
ever bigger. The war zone stretches from San Francisco to Ber-
lin. 1t includes Montana, and everybody in the state. Every in.
dividual is personally responsible for holding that line. Our bust.
ness now is war. and "doing ones Bit should have no place in our
vocabulary or thought. America has undertaken the most gigantic
task in military history, a task that calls for our UTMOST in
strength and intelligence. Solidarity in America and unity of aims
with our Allies mean victory, and the guarantee, in all the ages to
come of human liberty and secure peace. The end is worth our all.

This was the statement received by
Coler Campbell, director of the bu-
reau Of military relief for the North
ern Division, from Henry S. Thomp-
son, director of the bureau of camr
service at Washington. Mr.. Campbell
wired Mr.. Thompson in relation to
the equipment of soldiers enlisted
from the North Dakota national
guard.
In his reply Mr.. Thompson assured
the division director that the North
Dakota men had been supplied. Il
realize very WE'LL" Mr.. Thompson
said, "what a damper it would put
upon the work the women are doing
if they felt that the men in whom
they were most interested were not
being provided for. You can be very
emphatic in your assurance that we
realize this and are doing our best to
supply the men. Certainly it can be
stated with a fair degree of accuracy
that no man has left this country un-
provided with knitted goods, where
the Red Cross had any previous know
ledge of his leaving"

THRIFT AND CHRISTMAS

The foolish hysteria for unwise
economy should not extend to the elm
ination of Christmas, says the Mis-
soulian. More than ever this year.
we need the Christmas spirit in its
full meaning. That should be a war
asset. We must keep our hearts strong
and our souls high, and surely we
cannot do this if the makers of gloom
are to take Christmas from US.
Let US have Christmas as usual, but
in planning it, remember, that a sem
sible form Of thrift should apply in
the purchase of Christmas gifts for
our friends. Let US try to buy the
useful and practical things and to cut
out the frivolous and t'lry. In our
stores which are carrying a large as
sortment of goods chosen especially
for the needs Of the hour, will be
found such things as we shall be COM
PEELED to buy later, anyhow. 1t is
perhaps fair to say that some of these
may cost more in a few months.
Sensible thrift and a careful study
of the needs Of our friends. are ad-
vised, but to carry economy at this
time to the limit would be only to
serious disaster to the many
who are engaged in our
and commerce.

SPECIAL ORDER OF THIS BOOK RE-
CEIVED BY GLASGOW DRUG co.
Read the book and make
the play doubly interesting

everywhere is apparent from the latest
obtainable figures of enlistments in
some other states since last April. By
last accounts the state of Vermont had
sent to the army fewer than the num-
Der that is now being sent daily FROM
the Spokane recruiting station to Fort
Wright In three days Spokane has
beaten Delaware's record since April,
and in four days it proposes to pass
New Hampshire. For the last few
days the enlistments at this station
have been nearly a tenth Of the total
for the country. That is what the In
land Empire is doing in the way of
furnishing men.
Spokane claims credit only as being
the center to which streams OF re-
cruits are coming from a wide terri
tory. AS far as the origin OF the men
is concerned the lions share Of praise
belongs, as it has steadily belonged
since we went to war. to Montana. In
proportion to its population. Montana
stands so far ahead of any other state
in the Union that there is no COM
parison. From the time the presi-
dent called for volunteers in April,
Montana men have trooped into Spo-
kane to join the colors at an ever
increasing rate. Montana is going to
have a large part in the winning Of
this war.
