for Safety.

LONDON. May 4.-The admiralty
has issued the following:
'In today's German wireless the
following statement appears: From
papers found on American aviators
who were shot down it has been prov
ed that for their own safety many Of
them crossed over on hospital ships
certified as members, of the American
ambulance service in France
''The secretary OF the admiralty
makes the Following statement: No
hospital ship. British or American. has
ever carried anybody but invalids and
the necessary medical staff Further.
there are 20 hospital ships working on
the cross-channel route The whole
statement therefore is a fabrication.
The American naval authorities state
that they have some few ayiafors who
were N the allied ambulance service
in France before the United States
came into the war. but even in such
cases these men crossed the Atlantic
in ordinary ships. taking their full
chance Of being torpedoed.'"

He is a Friend of Mine.

You often hear man say, "He
is a friend of mine But how often
does he tell the truth. What is
friend?" IN my opinion it is the fell
low who will inconvenience himself
for you. 1t is the man who will sit by
your bedside when your frame has
been touched by disease. 1t is the
man who will come to you when the
clouds are black, while the mllttering
thunder of misfortune growls along
the sky. 1t is the man who will say:
Don't BE discouraged. l see you are
in trouble, let nae help you out" 1t
is not the man who will talk to you
in a pleasant manner for policy's
sake. 1t is not the man who will do
you a kindness only when he feels
that he will get in return full value of
services rendered. l would not give
two cents for a man who would
write his name in fancy letters in
my friendship album if he would not
visit me when 1 was in trouble.-Ob-

IOwa's State Flag.

Iowa has a state flag which has
been officially adopted by the War
Council of Iowa. The design is copy
righted. The flag as adopted consists
of a field Of white, on the upper half
of which is an eagle in natural 'colors
in flight, carrying in its beak long
pelnant upon which appear the
words, "Our Liberties We Prize and
Our Rights We VIII Maintain. Be-
low this pennant appears in large
black type the word Iowa. The nat
ural colors are preserved, the field
being white, the lettering of the mot
to blue, and the word Iowa" red.
The flag will be OF regulation size
and form, and copies of it are to be
widely distributed by the Daughters
of the American Revolution through
out the state. The Iowa flag is one Of
the prettiest Of those adopted by sis
ter states, and the motto could not
be better. 1t has been tried for sixty
years and it has never been found
wanting.

FOOD WILL WIN THE WAR"

Canada also is having trouble with
made-in-Germany lies calculated to
hinder Canadian food conservation
according to an official statement
received from the Canadian Food
Controller by the United States Food
Administration.
The stories bothering Canada are
of the same general character as
those the United States Food Ad-
'ministrator recently denounced in
this country. such as the ridiculous
salt aid blueing famine fakes and
the report that the Sgovernment
would seize housewivey home stocks
of winter canned goods.
The Canadian Food Controller es-
Inmates that when the people listen
to and pass on such stories, each
one has the power Of destruction
that lies in battalion of soldiers.
Stories without even vestige of
nave bCcu
broadcast" said the Canadian state
ment. Nor have they come to life
casually. They have started stimuli
taneously in different parts of the
country and in each instance have
been calculated to arouse public in
dignation.
They are insidious. subtle, per-
sistent. Bit by bit they dissipate pub
lie trust, the great essential in the
work of food control.
1T lies with every individual to
'forbear from criticism; to refrain
from passing on the vagrant and
harmful story; and thus the more
effectively to cooperate in work
which is going to mean more than
the majority of people yet realize. 1,
