A good way for an American to in
dulge his patriotic feelings just now,
while waiting to demonstrate them
in some form of personal service to
the country, is to buy one or more
of the liberty loan bonds. They are
to be issued in denominations as low
as $50, which makes 10 possible for
nearly everybody to have one in the
house.
Aside form the fact that a United
States government bond is the best
security on earth, it is form of in
vestment that should be a source of
pPide to American families as well
as of income. Every man and wo-
man who owns one can feel a closer
and more personal relation to the
government, and to the great ma
tional task to which the liberty loan
will be devoted That loan would
have been readily taken up if it had
been offered to a syndicate of bank
ers, but the government properly de-
termined that its nature called for
the widest popular participation, and
the tremendous response has dem
onstrated that the people of the
United States shared that view.-
This is the time to go down into
the family stocking and bring home

operation with your country Ill Ine

The American people now have al
opportunity to show the world tina
they have a stocking as deep anC
that they are ready TO shake it empt!
If need be to furnish their countr!
with the sine%s or war. Such dem
onstrations are object lessons to tn,

"sI,APsTICK. PATRIOTISM

TIME lower House of the Legis-
lature yesterday very properly
passed a resolution scoring Sc
verely the type of "slapstick" pa
triotism that insists upon using the
star Spangled Banner" and Amer
lea" in unbecoming manner either
to serve unworthy purposes or from
a mistaken idea of the fitness. of the
occasion.
Our national songs should be sung
and played with the reverance the
French display for theirs. They
should not be made common by too
frequent usage, nor should they be
cheapened by association. To be
brought unceremoniously to ones
feet two or three times during the
course of a moving picture show
because the organist chooses either
to inject the strains of the Star
Spangled Banner" into a stirring war
film or to mix up the tune with bars
from Maryland. My Maryland, "
and Dixie" serves no good purpose
and is extremely annoying.
The House is fully justified In its
course and it is to be hoped that
those who have been offending will
take heed and act accordingly.

The proposal to expend $1,000
10000 in the construction of 5,OO0,-
OO0 tons OF steel ships to combat the
U-boat will appeal to Americans
more forcibly than the plan for l,
GOO wooden ships of 5000 to 5000
tons capacity. The enlarged pro-
gram probably was prompted by the
investigation of the situation made
by General Goethals. who has been
placed in charge of the shipbuilding
program.
He was reported as saying at the
outset that the wooden boats would
be only makeshifts. The engines
in such ships, he explained. would
shake them to pieces in a compara-
lively short time, therefore they
scarcely could be viewed in the
light of anything like valuable ad-
ditions to our after-war merchant
marine. We are proceeding with the
plan to launch such craft in order to
have carriers in service at the earl
lest possible moment.
The original plan was to spend
about s200,000.000 on the wooden
ships, and that sum, no doubt, will
be expended under the revised pro-
posal. In addition. our shipyards and
steel mills will turn out 100000
tons of steel ships that will do their
bit toward thwarting the U-boats,
and will be a very formidable fac
tor in the foreign commerce of the
United States after the war.

The Kitchener estimate on the
length of the war is about up with
the war still going, and entering. in
deed, upon another phase in which
the new found strength of Germany
has yet to be tested. This should in
duce some reflections upon our, part
as the latest participant. We say
the German military leaders COM
pletely deceived in the estimate they
had made both as TO the length of
the war, the participants in it and
its demands upon German resources.
They thought a six weeks cam
paign would bring the end in sight
with Paris in their hands and Rus
sia not yet started. They thought
the money cost was all provided for
in the war chest and that no loans
would be necessary. They thought
that England woul9 stay out, that
Italy would stay out and that Amer
lea would stay out. They thought
many other thines that were illu-
sorry, and so also did British and
French statesmen. The war, in fact,
got away from all those who imagin-
ed they had hand on the reins and
has been running wild ever since.
This country can have no excuse
for making guesses as poor. We can
hope. and believe if we can, that the
war is on its last legs. but we must
prepare for our part in it as if we
thought it could grow new legs as
fast as it loses its old ones. We must
prepare for 1t just as though it was
a brand new war, as it is for us. A
good way is not to guess at all, but
to get ready to go through with il
to the end and count the time after

The declaration by Secretary
Lansing that the United States will
stick with the Entente and consider
no separate peace with Germany no
more than voices the practically
unanimous assumption and senti-
ment of the American people. When
We went into this fight we went in
with the idea that it was to he a
gram would be the common pro-
gram of the Allies. AS a matter of
fact, any other course would be pre-
posterous and impossible. AS a mere
precautionary war measure, we are
obliged to assume the position in
dicated by MIR. Lansing. We are
not strong enough to undertake an
independent campaign against the
Berlin autocracy. Our entrance Into
! the war on the basis that we were
to combat the enemy single handed
, would have been a traveSty and
would have endangered the nation
without providing the promise OF
compensation.
Aside from this, the inclination
and sympathies of the people of the
United States will lead them to stick
to the end. Americans are some
what slow to get into a fight. but
they are not quitters. And when
they are in q conflict which has the
salvation of the race for it's objec-
tive. all their instincts lead them to
closest friendship with other coun-
tries engaged In the same undertake
