SECRETARY OF WAR IN FRANCE

In the headlines of The Herold of
Monday, making announcement Of
Secretary Bakers presence in Eu-
rope, it was written: Secretary Bak-
or in France; Bitter Fighting Seems
Near"
1t is well that Secretary Baker has
gone to France. 1t would have been
better had Mr.. Baker, when Mayor of
Cleveland, then pacillst gone to
France in the dark days of 1914 Had
he been brought near to the tragedies
in Belgium and in France he would
not have been lulled to fancied Sc
curity in 1916 by the knowledge that
the war was three thousand miles
away" If he is near where bitter
fighting takes place he may come to
a realization of the fact that this war
is a war to the death; war to be
won by heroic men, ready to give
their lives to save America from the
fate of France and Belgium. When
Secretary Baker comes to that reali-
cation there will be a different tale
to tell by him, and whatever of in
fluence he has will be exerted to
speed up instead Of to delay our prep
aratiOns.

The Call to Youth

Never before has the boy has such
an opportunity to become a vital fac
tor in history. Every boy who lives
his country should ask himself, "How
Can l Best Serve the Nation in the
War Emergency He should realize
that, having received untold benefits
from the freest and best government
on earth, he holds his services in
trust for the preservation of Demo-
crazy on which that government rests.
Although he may have to endure ach-
ing limbs and sore muscles in field
and factory he will be happy in the
consciousness that he has had real
part in winning the war. With true
pride and satisfaction he will show
in after years his Reserve Badge of
Honor granted by the United States
for his faithful and loyal service. If
not enlisted in the Army or Navy no
boy can better serve his country than
by joining the U. S. Boys Working
Reserve.
To The Parents
Fathers and mothers of the nation
should see to it that their sons are
members of the Reserve The Re-
serve is entirely voluntary and a boy
may be withdrawn from membership
In the discretion of the parent. If a
boy is in school, he will not be taken
from his studies, but will be encour-

aged to utilize his vacation and spare
time in training for productive activ-
tiles. 1t is the patriotic duty of the
parents not only to see that their sons
join the Reserve, but to spread the
Gospel of the Reserve among other
fathers and mothers.
To The Employer
The Reserve has proved conclusive
ly that, even though inexperienced the
strong, healthy boy, inspired by pa
triotism, is a capable and adaptable
helper in field and factory. Every
employer should remember, however,
the limitations Of youth, and no en-
ployer should work members of the
Reserve long hours. The Reserve has
been firm in unfolding child labor
laws and in contending for reasonable
hours of toll. The Reserve recon-
mends supervision of boy labOrers
and frequent inspectaton of working
conditions. The boy of today is the
man of tomorrow, and the future of
the nation depends upon the moral
and physical welfare of its boys.
Toll Of Freedom
Young men, are you giving your
best to your country? Fathers and
mothers, are you guiding your sons
into the paths of greatest usefulness
to the nation? Employers, are you
using men that your country needs in
the war emergency while you selfish
ly shirk from the task of training the
youths who. though inexperienced. are
fired with patriotic impulse to do a
mans work for you?

Reserve! Parents of America, endorse

Our Soldier Boys.

As the editor of this column is
writing these notes the joy bells are
ringing over the land and across the
water; for peace has come. To some
of us the first thought was that it has
come too late. Yes, it has come too
late to let my boy come marching
home again, but because he and 9TH
ers threw themselves and their lives
into this fight this peace has come. 1t
could not have come otherwise. 1t
has come too late to many a Belgian
and French home robbed OF its sons
and fair daughters, but 1t has come 80
that other homes may spring up with
out fear that some day tho barbarous
Hun will come and despoil them. 1t
has come that peace and liberty may
come to the whole world. II our
boys were brave enough to willingly
rive their lives, we mothers must be
brave enough to rejoice In the good
they brought to the world. We dc
not rejoice that our boys will not come
home. No one but q bcreaved parent
can dream what an aching pain thai
thought brings to us. But wc do re'
ioioe that they brought peace to 9th
ers. And we rejoice that after to-day
no fair life need ever DO offered Of
