| "The
| Almighty
| Dollar"

Washington Irving was the
first man to use this we'll
known allusion to our devotion
to the dollar.
He first used it in "The
Creole Village" and since that
time its use in our language has
been universal.
And our devotion to the dol
lar is unimpaired!
Our entire business life is an
endless effort to get as much
for dollar as the dollar will
buy. And he who gives most
gets most in return.
This has always been our
aim-to give the greatest value
to give all for a dollar that a
dollar will buy-to be of the
greatest service to the great
est number" thereby obtaining
our just reward in a constantly
growing business,
In doing this we believe that
we have gained the confidence
of the buying public to such an
extent that plain statement
about the merchandise is suf-
| ficient to arouse your interest,
and we have eliminated the use
of comparative prices in our ad-
vertisements.

FIRST AMERICAN ARMED SHIP
SUNK BY SUBMARINE

NEW YORK, April 5.-The Ameri,
can steamship Aztec, first armed
merchant vessel to sail from a port or
this side of the Atlantic, was sunk
without warning Sunday night by a
German submarine off an island near
Brest, France.
The cable message from the Ameri-
can Consul at Brest that brought the
news of the ships sinking to her own
ers. the Oriental Navigation Com
pany, gave no inkling as to the fate
of her crew. An Associated Press
dispatch from Paris, France, said
however, that while some of the men
aboard the Aztec were rescued, a NUM-.
her of them were missing and probably
had persisted.
The Aztec, under command of Capt
Walter O'Brien, was manned by d
crew of thirty-nine. Seventeen of
this number, including the captain,
were American citizens.

WHAT Estate OF WAR" is

A declaration of war" by one ma
ton against another is an outright
announcement that one intends to
wage war on the other. The declara,
ton is formally sent to the enemy's
government Usually the responsible
ity for the war, in such a case, lies
with the nation declaring it.
The United States has engaged in
four foreign wars, but it never has de
clared war in and of these cases, nor
has any nation ever declared war
against the United States.
A "state of war" was declared tn
exist in 1912 with Great Britain, in
1916 with Mexico and in 1898 with
Spain. A declaration Of independence
brought on the war Of 1875.
A state of war" means that the
country recognizing such a condition
believes it has been attacked, war is
being waged against it, and it is nee
essary for national defense and secur-
ity to fight back.
Recognition of Estate of war"
places the responsibility for the war
and its consequences upon the other
nation.

Your flag and my flag,
And how it flies to-day
In your land and my land

The stripes forever CLEAN;
Snow-white and soul-white-
The good forefathers dream;
Sky-blue and true blue, with stars to

The gloried guidOn Of the day; chel-

Your flag and and my flag!
To every star and stripe
The drums beat as hearts beat
And filters shrilly pipe!

A blessing in the sky;
Your hope and my hope

Home land and far land and half tie

Old Glory hears our glad salute and
ripples to the sound!
Your flag and my nag,
And, oh, how much it holds
Your land and my land
Secure within its folds!

April Fools Day.

You could never make the kidIets
Of former days think that April Fools
Day was one Of the minor occasions OF
the year. They looked forward to it
as almost next to July Fourth. They
planned elaborate hoaxes, and con.
<xcted caIlraigns for the befoolmen:
ID older and wiser heads. For once
IN the year they felt abreast of the
grownups. being able thus to deceive
and make game Of them.
Most women set out in the morning
to fool their husbands as the first
business of the day, and commonly
they succeed. The newspapers
printed elaborate accounts of tradi.
tional hoaxes, like placards attached
% peoples backs marked April Fool,
wool doughnuts fried in brown fat
hooking exactly like the real thing. etc.
These schemes were beyond the ca.
pscity of the children, who contented
themselves with minor stunts like cali
ing attention to some imaginary bird
IN the nearby tree.
The humOrists of every age have
their own methods, which change from
time to time. Practical jokes are not
10 common as they used to be. Wit
and humor becomes more refined.
People with q. humorous turn enjoy
jonying others, matching wits and pok
ing fun at them. They like tripping
Gem up in conversation and repartee
rather than making them physically
ridiculous.
These modern forms of humor are
nore subtle, and are often just as irri
taGng TO the sensitive victim. The
Hkn who is slow Of speech feels bafled
aid helpless among the jokers of mod
ssn society. But fun making is the
spice of life. People who can't take
their part and accept joking on them
selves good naturally, are bound to be
rs uncomfortable as the old timer
who had the placeard stuck on his
back on the first day Of April.

MORE STRINGENT RULES
FOR SECOND-cLASS MAIL

That at least so per cent. of the ad
vertised subscription price must be
received by publishers before they can
be entitled to the low rates of second
class mail, is the substance of an or

Burleson. Copies of this order were
received here by the local postoffice
authorities. Publications heretofore
exempted from subscription restric-
tons are not affected by this order.
Through this order, circulation of
publications which depend wholly or
partly on their advertising matter for
maintenance, circulars, advertising
pamphlets, etc, will not be permitted
as second class mail matter. To have
the privileges of the cheaper second
class rate publications must have legit-
innate SUBSCRIPTION lists. Copies sent
in exchange for another publication
are regarded as legitimate, as we'll as
copies to advertisers, or subscriptions
obtained either directly or through

PHONES FOR GOVERNMENT.

Temporary suspension of the tele-
phone extension service throughout
the country i'll order to hold in reserve
facilities that may be needed by the
government, may become necessary
was announced in New York by U. n
Bethel, senior vice president of the
American Telephone and Telegraph
Company.
"A temporary embargo on the in
stallation of new telephone lines, or in
any event, installation subject to in
definite delay. may become necessary
Mr.. Bethel said. Because of the un-
precedented demands for new facili-
ties, the necessity of holding in re-
serve facilities that may be needed b.
the government and the difficulty of
getting supplies which all manufac-
turers have experienced, it will be
necessary for the Bell Telephone com
panies to hold growth substantially to
normal proportions.
Therefore, orders for new lines
and stations can be accepted only on
the understanding that there may be a
delay in filing them. This condition
will hold more or less throughout the
country, and will be dealt with by the
local management in eSch section as
the public interest in the locality may
require. Because Of the varying con.
ditions in different parts of the coun-
try no general rule applicable every
where has been attempted"

WASHINGTON, April 3.-President
Wilson, in his address to Congress
made it plain that war is not against
the German people; it is against the
iautocratic government, which denies
the German people the right of self
expression. No portion of President
Wilson's speech served better purpose
than his profession of confidence in
the German-born and those of German
extraction who owe their allegiance
TO the American flag. Congress will
follow him in this, as in every other
feature of his address, but before adj
journment new acts will have been
written providing penalties of unusual
severity for lack of loyalty, and for
those activities which have been
described in the espionage bill which
