The Secret of Youth.

After all, the plain truth is that adj
venture consists less in the expert
ences one actually has than in the in
defatigable expectancy with which one
awaits them. Indeed | sometimes
fear that people must be divided into
who appreciate them. And between
the two the affinity for adventure is
greater treasure than the experiencing
of il. If we are possessed of the affin-
ity, adventure itself is, at most, just
round the corner from US. This opens

During the war, when foodstuffs of
all kinds will continually diminish,
many unusual kinds of human food
will be brought into use. The soy
utilized. Already several manufacture
ers in the East have successfully sub
stituted soy beans for navy beans in
baked pork and beans. Indeed, the
packing and for planting has been so
great since last fall that the cotton oil
mills have practically ceased crushing
the seed and are turning them to the
last fall bought 10000 bushels of
seed and planned to crush at least
100000 bushels did not crush any seed
but disposed of the whole stock for
food and planting. Only the yellow
seeded varieties are used for food
With the wartime demand on the
soy-bean crop for an animal concen-
trate, for human food, and for Oil, Nm
addition to the normal demand for
forage and seed for planting, there is
no doubt that high prices will be main
tanned. Soy beans are now selling at
$3.50 to 81 bushel-at double the
usual price-ana farmers should not
fail to plant the largest possible acre
age. 1t will be profitable and pa
triotic enterprise.

TO FATHERS
When You Join. the Red Cross
and Give Your Mite, You Help
Our Soldiers in Europe and
Feed Starving Babies.

Fathers: Suppose that three years
! ago powerful and savage enemy had
invaded our nation suddenly and you
had been called into the army to de-
fend the country. Suppose that our
| county had been captured by the In
Vader; your home burned, your wife
and ha1f-grown daughter carried away
into slavery worse than death and your
son mutilated and put to work behind
the enemy lines.-:
You think such, things couldn't hap
pen to you and your family? Well,
just those horrors were visited upon
thousands Of fathers in France and
Belgium by the -kaiser's savages. It
has been revealeH to us during the last
few mon tbs by the secret service that
the Huns were plotting an invasion
OF the United States through Mexico.
But for a fair destiny those horrors
would have been ours, because the kali
ser aims to dominate the world and
spread over the earth his brand Of love
and fellowship called "kultur."
The American Red Cross has been
called upon to relieve suffering "over
there" and to restore as far as possible
devastated sections Of allied territory.
1t is now on the job. The Red Cross
is conducting thousands Of hospitals in
France for American and allied sol
diers, and running ambulance lines
and comfort stations innumerable.
Yet the organization cannot do
enough because it hasn't half enough
members back home here to support
the vast work there. So now it is con-
Quoting campaign to get fifteen mil
lion members by Christmas eve. 1t is
an honor to belong to the Red Cross.
If you aren't already wearing the little
button, enroll at once. The member
ship costs just s1.00 year. Another
dollar brings you the Red Cross Maya
zine for twelve months.

women and children, needs your help

Cash Business.

The business men of Grand Rapids
are now practically all on a cash ba-
sis. It's the proper and only way to
do business, if everybody would only
adopt it. We approve of the system,
and are doing everything that we can
in our line of business to bring it to
that condition. !
We sincerely hope that everybody
will approve of this plan and assist
the business men in doing a cash and
carry business. Everybody can sell at
a less profit if they can get their cash
on delivery. The conditions brought
on by the war necessitates conserva-
ton all along the line. It costs money
to keep your records, this must be add
ed to what you manufacture or sell
The people Of Grand Rapids and vicin-
ity will all be better off by making
their plans to do nothing but a cash
business.

Hoover, Food Commissioner.

Can it be possible that Mr. Hoover,
the Food Commissioner of the U. S.,
appointed by Pres. Wilson, is in ca
boots with the food men of the coun-
try? When you place power in a
mans hands, you place temptation
with it. We sincerely hope that Mr..
Hoover will not be found guilty as
charged by Mr.. Spreckles. The peo-
pie of the country are going to con-
tinue to have confidence in Mr. Hoover
until the investigation now on at
Washington, proves him guilty of
wrong. Simply charging man with
guilt, who holds an important posi-
ton, does not make it so. The Presi-
dent of the U. S. is not going to lose
confidence in his appointee neither are
the people going back on Mr.. Hoover
unless the evidence warrants it. We
shall all wait until the facts come
out, then we can all Judge for ourselves
Mr.. Hoover could make money for
himself if he desired to betray the con-
fidence of the President and the peo-
pie who have placed him in control
Of the food of this country. We do
not believe him guilty and will not
want to lose confidence in men hold
ing such important positions as Mr..
Hoover does.

Simultaneously with the arrival of
German officers in Petrograd comes
this announcement that the Bolsheviki
have seized the banks and that they
will not repay ally nations which have
lent money to Russia unless the cred

General Kaladines and his Cossacks
are in possession of Southern Russia,
with its grain fields and its oil fields

than is contained in the vaults of the
