LIQUID LOGIC.

The American soldiers are learning
from their French and British com.
rades to love wine and beer in France
without which no civilized soldier can
and will fight, much less gain victories
And "when Johnny comes marching
home" he'll sound the death knell to
parson-made American prohibition
Brewers Journal.
The liquor journals would have the
people believe that success of Ameri.
can arms in France is due to booze
These boys were trained in canton
ments in the United States surrounded
by dry zones, were prohibited from
buying or receiving as gift, intoxi-
eating liquors. Total abstainers, ev-
eryone of them, and after they arrived
in France strong liquor was denied
them and even the use of light wines
and beer discouraged by declaration
Of their commander in chief. And yet
the booze journals Of America, by some
strange process of reasoning, figure it
out that it is booze that inspired them
to victory over the beer-drinking Hun.
Great is the logic Of booze makers and
booze apologists.-American Issue.

"THE NATION DRY NEXT JULY"
With prohibition for the period Of
the war and thereafter until the termi-
nation Of rehabilitation. and prohi-
bition by federal amendment in effect
early in 1920 Gas seems sure), it may
be said that John Barleycorn will be,
after July LIST, 1919, forever banished
from these United States. So far from
wishing him onto other and less fa-
vored lands, the temperance hosts are
already engaged in worldwide often
sive which will make him an outcast
from every corner Of the earth-the
imam without a country"-no abiding
place on sea or land.
AS for that particular unit of the
temperance army, the National w. O.
7. u, its occupation will not be gone
after 1t has reached the goal Of nation
al constitutional prohibition. This
point is clearly set forth in an official
letter sent by Miss Anna A. Gordon,
president, to every state W. G. T. U.
We quote:
"Some Of our friends not close stu
dents of the temperance reform, are
short sighted enough to say that with
the securing of nationwide prohibition
through ratification of the federal
amendment, the work of the w. G. T..
q. will be accomplished and our ac-
tivities should be directed into other
channels. On the contrary, we believe
we may rightly claim that our greatest
constructive work will then begin. Our
educational propaganda under the new
conditions Of nationwide prohibition
will become even more necessary than
In the past. All our educational lines
of work that concern young people
and boys and girls should at once re-
ceive our whole-hearted, vigorous at
tentlon. The children of today must
hold the prohibitory law tomorrow.
The appetite for alcoholic liquors and
the avarice Of the would-be liquor deal
er will not become extinct when this
nationwide law becomes operative.
Locally we shall continue to be in Of
fenslve and defensive struggles with
the direst foe of the child and the
home; our best efforts will be needed
TO help establish substitutes for the
saloon and to aid in the election of
officials committed to the new law and
to its strict enforcement. Our pro-
gram of social service after the pro-
hibition law goes into effect will have
new and vital features and we should
be alert in our preparedness. With
added time and funds at our command,
our fascinating and compelling lines Of
service among foreign-speaking peo-
pie; on behalf of moral education;
child welfare; the welfare of women
in industry; the education of women
voters; anti-narcotics, anti-vice and
many other important departments,
can be pushed with new zeal and help
fulness. True to its character as a pi-
Oneer the w. @. T. q. will forge ahead
in the social service activities Of the
new dry nation and in its mighty ma
donal and international program"

NO RUM RATION

In his new book on 1.-THE Warfare
of Today" Lieutenant Colonel Azan,
Of the French army, testifes: 81 am
not In favor of the practice Of dis
tributing alcohol before going to the
attack. I have never given it out to
my men, and have never regretted
this policy they have always done bet
ter without it. l suppose that GER
tain number Of soldiers, affected by
alcohol, without being actually drunk,
lose their sense Of danger; they then
expose their lives uselessly In way
they would not do had they all their
wits about them. Probably 1t is just
to remove this anxiety that they ask
for alcohol. In my opinion alcohol is
not needed for troops with a finely
tempered morale"

o'clock the old woman took bed
room candle In either hand and toiled
up the creaking stair. On the little
stand beside each bed she placed q
brass candlestick, and, having turned
back the sheets, went out again, muir
muring soft goodnight"
Mrs. Tetlow arose at dawn, and be-
fore 1t was time to prepare breakfast
she had dressed her turkey and set it
aside, ready for the oven.
About nine o'clock she began to lay
her table.
Having smoothed out every wrinkle
In the cloth, she gathered all her ge-
ranium blossoms and put them In the
center of the table in glass bowl.
Then the silver, which had all been
polished the day before, was brought
forth from its canton flannel wrap
pings, and Great-grandma fellows
blue china was lifted down from the
o4ACAFCo VI Tic clOSGL.
"How good 1t is to see all these
things out againW exclaimed the old
lady, surveying the result of her labor
with pardonable pride; ''and it's. right
good to have company once more" she
added with a little sigh; "rve eaten
alone so long,"
1--WE nothing to do now" she said.
"but to sit at the front window and
watch for the folks to come. I'll be
able to see them far up the meadow
road"
A few minutes later she was star
tied by hearing a knock at the front
door, and, quite trembling with the
shock, she arose to open it.
Good morning, Mrs. Tetlow." 1t
was Mrs, Clifford, the young doctors
wife, who spoke. Good morning, Mrs.
Tetlow. Isn't this a beautiful Thanks
giving day? Madam Clifford is out In
the carriage and she wants to take
you home to have dinner with us.
Please say you'll come; and let me
get your bonnet and shawl for YOU"
Mrs. Tetlow looked down into the
bright young face, with dreamy hap
piness in her own, as she slowly shook
her head.
you're real good" she said, land
please tell Madam Clifford I'm just as
much obliged to her, bit / can't come
today. Tm-Tm looking for company"
There was ring of tremulous pride
in the old voice that went to the
heart of the young woman. She look
ed up into the wrinkled old face and
noted the strange glow Of content
and far-off happiness in the old eyes.
Mrs. Clifford remembered 1t afterward
with sense Of awe.
AS she turned to go now she saw,
through the open door, a corner Of the
long table, all ready for dinner.
"I'm so glad for you, Mrs. TetlowI''
she exclaimed impulslvely. Il hope
you will have pleasant Thanksgiving
day" Then she hurried back to her
carriage, and Mrs. Tetlow returned to
her roeldng-chair by the window.
They're real late" she murmured
to herself now and then, and new,
strange WEAKNESS and numbness crept
over her as she sat and waited, her
dim vision still wandering far up the
meadow road.
Suddenly she started forward with
outstretched arms. "PeterI" she cried,
Mary" and then sank back feebly in
her chair. I'm right glad to see you

little tired. Just lay off your things
and draw up near the fire. 1t is grow

Her gaze wandered up the meadow

Then she turned, as though some one
had touched her elbow, and started
back wonderingly.

on his way to see some patient.

said to himself, remembering his

He hurried up the path and lifted
the heavy knocker, but no one an
swered. Then the doctor opened the
door and walked in.
"Mrs, Tetlow," he called, but the
loud tick OF the clock alone responded.
Finally sleepy cat emerged from the
kitchen and rubbed against his leg.
DR.. Clifford struck a match and
lighted a lamp that stood on the hall
table. Then he passed into the sit

stove had gone out and the room had
grown cold. Through half-open door
he could see dimly a long table, laid
for many guests, but no plate had been
disturbed.
The doctor raised the lamp above
his head and turned toward the front
window. In the high-backed rocker
slender, motionless figure leaned back
among the cushions but the old house
was wrapped in peaceful stiffness;
for, with a wonderful smile upon her
white lips, Mrs. Tetlow had gone forth
with her Thanksgiving guests.
