How England Saved.

In strong contrast to their neigh
bors, the French across the Englisl
Channel, the masses of the Englisi
people a few years ago were pro
verbally spcndthrift rather thar
a saving race. But the great wa
has wrought change.
In 1917, although purchasing
billions of dollars of war bonds
the small savings banks depositol'
in England increased their depOs
it's more than 60 million dollars.
1t was patriotism that starte'
this great change in the people
the nation. The English people
started saving their money because
they saw that it meant saving
England. But thrift and economy
begot thrift and economy. They
economical and saved for theil
own sake as well as for England's
sake. Not only did they save
money but they economical in
food, in fuel, in dress, in luxuries.
More than one million English
workers were purchasers, out of
their savings, in the second great
war loan OF Great Britain, and 8
million subscribed to their last
war loan.
The question whether the civi.
lian population should economize
and do without Gel tain things or
the soldiers and sailors be denied
things necessary for their effective
ness and safety was answered in
no uncertain or unpatriotic way
by the masses of the English peo
pie. They did their bit in tinanc.
ing their country.
Neither in ability nor in patriot
ism are the American people sec
ond to the English or the French
or the German or any other nation.
The Liberty Loan is at once an ap
peal and a pride. 1t appeals tC
their patriotism and their civic
pride; it is an opportunity to say,
and an opportunity to serve theil
country.
No American need fear the re
snlts of the American peoples sup
port of the Liberty Loan will fai
to maintain Americas traditiona
patriotism and power. The NOR,
than 4 million subscribers and the
more than billion over subscrip
tion to the first issue of the Liberty
Loan Bonds are eloquent testimon,
of the American peoples loyalt.
to their government and thei
willingness and ability to give i
full financial support.

As to Droft Rulings.

The modification of the draft
rulings so as to exempt married
men who have childless wives but
wives who would be compelled to
seek their own living if their hus
bands were called, will meet with
general favor, providing it is wise
ly administered.
Many married women have no
particular ability for work, and II
compelled to earn their own living
could find employment only at un
skilled, and perhaps menial labor
to which they are unaccustomed,
and which they could not do with
out serious injury to their health
and to their future happiness.
Husbands of these women should
be excused from the draft, at least
until the wastage of the battle
fields makes itself felt
Careful investigation should pre-.
cede exemption in these cases. The
date of marriage and the motive
should be considered carefully.
Also the ability of relatives to as
sumo or at least contribute to the
support of the wife should be con
