The members of Company A are
going thru with physical examination
today. They are being examined by
Lieut.. Cliff of the medical reserve of
the regular army. He insists on the
men wearing their birthday clothes
while being examined and gives about
four minutes to each man. There is
sorrow among the numerous members
of the w. o. w. in Company A, be-
cause they can't organize a degree
team with slapsticks to work on each
candidate as he goes before the Of
ficer. 1t will be three days before
the men know whether they have

ALLSPRESS PUBLICITY
MOST POWERFUL FORCE
J. P. Mckinney Says There Is No
Such Word as Failure in Mod
ern Newspaper Advertising.

The potentialty of publicity as a
peacemaker was discussed by j. 2. Nc
Kinney, president of the Six Point
League. New York. recently.
Publicity of right among nations as
well as among men will also lead all
belligerents to peace. and the recon-
structioE Of nations on better lines will
be brought about by the powerful force
of newspaper publicity expressing the
might OF public opinion" he said.
Newspaper publicity IS the most
powerful force in the world today. and
wherever there is found a free people
there also is a free press. Whatever
human advancement has been promoted
since the establishment of free press
in the world has been cultivated by the
power Of tie press until accomplished
Even the most humble citizen of
any nation, where free press is in
operation. cannot but be imbued with
the belief that no force in modern times
exertS such powerful impulses to prog
ress as the written and printed word.
LAS a medium for the promotion Of
commercial and industrial success the
is the most potent factor
devised by man. There is no single hui
man effort that will not produce
greater results by the use of newspa
per space, and further, there is no
single article for general use that can
not be made a commercial success by
the use of newspaper space. provided
only that the article has merit.
There is no such word as failure in
the modern art of advertising in daily
newspapers. where a campaign is car
ried out in full detail and is properly
managed and financed"

The Soldiers.

It's sad to see the young men
go, away from all they love and
know, to where wars beacons
burn and poignantly it pains the
heart to feel. while watching
them depart. that they may not
return. We calmly read of
others sons who went to face
the Prussian guns in yonder end
less fray; we gave the tribute of
sigh to Englishmen who went
to debut they were far away.
We cannot truly sympathize
with foreigners; an ocean lies be-
tween them and our doors the
story of their sorrows seems like
some vague horror seen in
dreams. when wintrv tempest
roars. Now we behold our own
depart; through mists of tears
we see them start, the ladies we
have reared, perhaps to see our
home no more, perhaps to come
back to our door all stricken,
MANNED and scared. 1t racks the
soul to see them stride away,
away, with noble pride, SO young.
SO brave, SO strong; we see them
march in fine array. and then
kneel down somewhere and pray
that war may cease ere long. 1t
breaks the heart to see them go :
but better far to face the foe and
for their country fall. than to
pursue a peaceful trade, and by
base stratagem evade that coun
try's urgent call.
