But he'll be crying for some water,
When he gets down below.
E stands for empire,

For we'll destroy it BY fire,

R stands for rope,
That will encircle his head,

You feel that you've given all you

What? Then what did you

What did you think the word

Surely you didn't mean, did
you, to give only what you can

What about our boys who are
giving their lives in the trenches
Are they giving only what they
can spare? How about those
mothers and little children in the

IT is to be regretted that some
people have a misconception of the
word Democracy which is being
extensively used in connection
with conditions of today. Many
are under the impression that
when the war is won the whole
world will be turned over to the
Democratic, political party. There
is movement on foot over the
country to show these mistaken
citizens the error into which they
have fallen. A study of the word
Democracy will show that 1t

CONSERVATION PROGRAM EXPLAINED BY PRESIDENT WILSON
HIGHWAY TRAVEL INCREASES
 50 PER CENT FIGURES SHOW
 DUE T0 0vERCROWDED TRAINS

WASHINGTON, Aug. 31.-Highways travel by means Of the passenger auto mobile has increased during the pres ent summer fully 50 per cent, accord ing to figures which have been com piled by the national road bureaus at the A. A. A. Washington and New York city headquarters. The increas- ing number of road journeys has re- suited from overcrowded trains and the difficulty of assured accomoda- tions and conveniences except to a comparatively limited number of trav- clers. While a percentage of the road trips have had to do with vacation pe- rlods, a preponderating quantity has related to commercial necessities and a consequent saving in time obtained by uninterrupted door to- door trips

 The worst roads we struck were between Montello and Elko,- said Girard. They were high centers and deep sand. We passed dozens of big cars that had to give up, and I was thankful that my Dort roadster was light and strong. The engine didn't miss single time, and the only worry the car gave us was replacing one tire because of puncture."

REPUBLIC TRUCK DOES
 WORK OFLOCOMOTIVE

The prominent part which motor trucks arc playing and can play in re- lieving the freight situation which pre- Vails all over the country is too well known to need further description" says C. E. Stromberg, manager of the Southern Motor Company, distributor he"e for the Republic trucks. Motor truck transportation is no longer a matter of Speculation-it is an assured fact. Without the aid of the motor truck on both long and short haul york, 1t is beyond conception to picture just what would happen to the com mercial life of the nation.
 With the freight situation as it is today, there would have been nothing for the shipper to do ten years ago ex- ce''t sit still and moan. When ne couldn't get freight cars, he was strict ly up against it. There was nothing to take their place. Necessity, however. has given him an alternat tive today in the form of the highly efficient and ever ready motor truck. No longer does the public gasp at the wonderful per formance of the truck-it has ceased to be a subject of wonder.
 Solution to Problem
 America has accepted the motor truck as a powerful solution to the transportation problems of the day.
 Besides the regular commercial use of the motor truck, emergency haul age has been found successful in every sense of the word. The steam engine is, Of course, indispensible-yet this jug gernaut of the rails has its limitatgons. The steam engine says, If you ,qill build a road for me to your door and lay it with two steel rails to follow. l will come and get your goods and car ry them wherever my two steel rails shall point the way" Not so with the motor truck.
 No matter where you are. or now many miles you may be from a .-ail- | road, if you have something that some body wants-or something that you wat brought to you-the motor truck
