Stand By The Boys

(By Pauline Worth Hamlin, of The
Vigilantes.)
Word has come back from the boys
in France We will be all right over
here in the trenches if you folks ov-
er there will stand by US"
What do they mean by standing
by?
They mean for us to do our part in
food conservation, in buying Thrift
Stamps and Liberty Bonds. They
mean for us to stand by the Red
Cross with our money, our hands and
our brains. They mean for us to
refrain from buying non-esSentials
so that the men and women who
make them can be released for the
making of essentials. They mean for
US to place a one cent stamp upon
our periodicals when we have finish
ed reading them so that the boys
may have good things to read.
They mean for us to write cheer
full letters to them. One young sol
der said, Il don't mind the danger
and the discomforts if l feel that ey-
erybody is all right at home, but
when l get letter saying that Frank
is sick and food is so high they can't
afford it and there is no coal-well
feel like the devil"
Remember that by the time that
letter reaches France Frank may
have a better job, Hattie may be fat
and rosy, food may be easier to get
and the coal shortage ended. Even
if that is not true write cheerful let
tiers anyway. The boy over there
needs cheer, it isn't his place to be
cheering you Remember that what
ever discomforts we may be having
over here, they are comforts com
pared to what they have over there.
Let us not fail our boys who are
fighting for us. The very least we
can do is STAND BY.

Our President Begins
His Sixth Year

Woodrow Wilson, as President OF
the United States, on Monday last,
the 4th of March, began his sixth
year l feel that an extract from
his inaugural address on March 4,
1913. would be interesting to all
loyal citizens, when he said:
We know our task to be no mere
task Of politics. but a task which
should search us through and
through, whether we be able to un-
derstand our time and the need OF
our people, whether we pc indeed
their Spokesman and interpreters,
whether We have the pure heart to
comprehend and the rectified will to
choose our high course of action.
This is not dry OF triumph, this
is a day OF dedication. Here muster
not the forces CT party, but the for
ces of humanity. Mems hearts wait
upon us. mems lives hang in the bal
ance; mems hopes call upon Us to
say what we will do. Who shall live
up to the great trust Who dares
fail to try? l summon all honest
men, all patriotic, all forward look
ing men to my side. God helping
me, l will not fail them if they will
but counsel and sustain me-"
Can you fail in this hour of stress
for our nation to respond &c the call
of your President? Is there any
man or woman in this great COM
mon wealth that will not show loyal
ty to our nation and to our great
President in this time of need? Will
you help him win his great task by
lending your savings, your dollars,
by making whatever sacrifice is
necessary to lend your Governemnt
through the purchase of War Say
ings and Thrift Stamps?

NEXT BLOW To
BE LAST BUT
THE HEAVIEST
Many Reasons Offered for the
Slowing Up Of German Of

Bv United Press.

.
WITH THE BRITISH ARMIES IN
FRANCE, July e-The next German
blow, believed TO be a matter of days,
is expected to be the last Hindenburg
will be able to deliver, Judging from
the increasing slowness of his past ef-
forts.
But nobody else here doubts that II
will be the hardest he is capable Of,
once his men are set in motion or that
II will eclipse all previous battles In
point Of violence and men and mate
rial engaged. The strange Iuli. which
has spread for weeks up and down the
lines, from one end to the other-save
for occasion tiny battles here and
there, like the Fourth of July show"
along the Somme-continues to hover
grimly over the west front.
The German infantry might be
sound asleep for all its doing in the
fighting line. Even the enemy airmen
are sticking closer to their roosts. De-
spite the fine weather. air fighting is
considerably below the average.
Much has been printed regarding
Hindenburgs delay. Some say the
FLANDERS fever" is the cause; others
say lack of men: others that he is
waiting until roads to the forward
areas are laid, so that big guns may be
brought UP and still others believe the
morale of the German troops is low.
The truth probably is a mixture OF
all these things, plus other things.
Beside a shortage of raw materials.
Germany doubtlessly has only linn
tied output of munitions now, making
IL necessary for her TO economic over
a long period In order to get big
enough stock 10 carry out operations
on a scale similar TO those in March
and June.
Prisoners taken since the Hamel
fight declare they had no food for two
days, owing TO the confusion in the
lines.

with doing business on Sunday. His
case was also turned over to the

The excise commissioners last week
revoked the licenses of three saloon
keepers found guilty of doing busi-

to their pleading guilty. II either or
