They qualify by spending dads

College for them is one grand
round of toots and tutors.
Occasionally some obsolete

this war, and must win it, they will
do their duty.
This is no time for criticism ex-
cept of those who are not in sym
pathy with America and who are not
willing to make the last sacrifice to
bring victory. l remember some
time ago reading a criticism of the
middle west in magazine. An
easterner accosted me the next day
and started in on the same subject.
I was irritated over the article and
told him that the middle west had
awakened in plenty Of time to save
the country in the rebellion; that the
middle west had given Lincoln,
Grant, Sherman, Logan and many
others, and that when the. army went
to France, / was sure middle west
man would be leader. And I'm glad
to learn that SO many of our middle
western boys are with Pershing.
No Time for Criticism.
1.-The criticism has been made on
the farmer that he will neither buy
Liberty bonds, pay his taxes or fight.
Now that Is wrong. They will do
all of these things, they are doing
them. You men in the cities, you
people in the larger communities
have your speakers, such as Judge
Wade and others who talk to you
on these subjects. You have your
newspapers and you have the oppor-
tunity for education. The problem
Is not to criticise the farmer, but
rather to carry to him the educa-
tional features Of the campaign to
let him know just what the issues
Of this war are. And If you do this
you'll find the farmer is back of you,
and that he'll buy bonds, pay all his
taxes cheerfully and his boys will
fight with the best of them. You'll
have no trouble with the man that
realizes what the situation over
there is, 1t is with the man who
hasn't heard that you must deal. But
when you have brought the message
to him, and when you have gotten
together, then peace will crown your
efforts"
Mr.. O'Harra told number of
touching little incidents in connec-
ton with the operation Of the draft
in his county, and how the boys were
giving up everything and going cheer
fully to the environments to train for

The Retailers held one Of the best
meetings Of the year last night at the
Hotel Iowa. They had plenty OF pat

after dinner speakers, and the bust
ness session was one of the livliest
OF the year. The trade conditions re.

every minute of the meeting which did
not adjourn until 1880 o'clock.
The meatless dinner proved to be
a fish dinner, with Mississippi river
cat fish as the main dish.
There were number of guests at
the dinner, and following dinner, mem

In the routine business of the league

To Change Name.
In the course of the discussion last
night a suggestion was made that the
name of the Keokuk Retailers league
be dropped and that the new name be
Keokuk Commercial club. This idea
was most heartily approved and the
necessary legal steps will be taken to
change the title by which the league
has been known since its organiza-
tom
