LOOKING AHEAD.

In the minds OF the citizens Of de-
mocracy the idea that service is due
to the government from every one
must be firmly implanted or the en-
franchised cease to be representative
of such a government.
The selective draft answers the pur-
pose Of this service, from military
standpoint, during the war we are at
present engaged in, but largely be-
cause of the fact that we have time to
prepare while our allies combat the
enemy. We must look to the future
and the possibilities Of a war declared
upon us when we will have no ally.
Should this occur selectiye conscrip-
ton would be of no avail. Accepting
the fact that the citizen OF democ-
racy owes his service to the govern
ment, is it not logical that we should
organize this service, which shall be
trained and equipped for an emergen-
CT and able to act Immediately as a
perfect machine when the necessity
arises7 Few citizens but believe that
universal military training is absolute
ly necessary to the future safety OF
this country and that this system
should be adopted by the government,
at the first opportune moment.
The speeding up Of our plans to win
this war should in no way be inter
fered with, and future policies must
be held In check that they may not in
~ In lie
But when our legislators feel that the
speeding up of the war is accomplish
ed bill should be passed creating q
system of universal military training
and service which will amply provid,
for our country's defense in the fu
ture, thereby assuring us against the
disaster Of an attack which would fint
us unprepared and completely at the
mercy Of an organized foe.

We have just held great naval and
military meet at Madison Square Gar
den, where a large sum was raised for
this remarkable unit, which has sailed
10 do such valuable work in France.
Every person in 1t, even TO the plumb
ers and mechanics, are women, and
they volunteered for dangerous service.
Other branches of our war service
have been an intensive food conserva-
ton campaign and the War-Savings
Stamps campaign. In all this active
patriotic work we feel inspired with
the thought Of our own chairman,
Mrs. Norman DER Whitehouse, abroad
on an important government mission
and many others OF the rank and file
of our women who are engaged In de-
voted service lover there"
Citizenship Schools.
Another interesting branch of our
work Is the great university extension
of citizenship. Schools are being held
throughout the state under our Educa-
tional Committee.
Another line OF work is that Of our
Intelligence Committee, which lists Of
ficials of all political parties and all
men in every township and county in
the state who have run or are to run
for office. 1t is believed this commit.
tee will become extremely intelligent
as time goes on, and its intelligence
will react on the civic welfare of the
state most tellingly.
Our Americanization Committee has
Issued some very effective and educa-
tional literature and is organizing In
every center and community where
there are foreign groups.
Maintaining Morale.
We realize that a great part Of ma
tons war time efficieicy is In keeping
life normal and efficient at home. In
the last analysis that nation which
keeps most nearly steady and normal
In its industrial and domestic life will
maintain that morale which will win
the war for it.
The work Of the Rural Problems
Committee perhaps Is Of particular In
terest in this publication which is be-
ing sent out by the National Security
League. Very few people In the coun-
try have stopped to realize how in our
body polite the rural committees are
Disseminated against in the matter Of
socializing forces. Our great cities
have their amusements, their munich
pal halls and baths. their community
kitchens, their public libraries and lee
ture courses and innumerable settle
ments and clubs where people are
drawn together and stimulated men,
tally and spiritually. We feel that
some of these advantages should be
brought to the country districts.
Any rural woman who wants to be
put in touch with our legislative bull
letin, with our correspondence courses
in civic education or any information
in reference to the work of the Wo-
man Suffrage party should write to
that organization at 303 Fifth avenue,
New York city.

The collie's name appears to be
shrouded in mystery, but there seems
to be a fairly reasonable foundation
for supposing that 1t is from "cOll'

When youth had the heart of the feet footed doe,
And time payfellow, Turing bare feet
Twere zephyrs cool in woodland
In truth it does while recalling again
Those joy laden hours in mead brakes and FEM
That did hold meath her hazy veird sheen
The wonder of wonders! that life quite unseen,
Where, low mystic murmurs in wind wildly blown,
Spoke language that to young years unknown.
The time for to learn them he had spare,
Yet sensed that rythm which urked everywhere
In grassy places. in marsh lands by streams;
In songs of the dawn;-the purple, pink CLEANS
OF twiights that linger'd and blended with night,
Arousng his heart with scarey delight,
AS homeward he scamperd remindful-how we'll;
Of promises made; then spell.
Who'd for the chores that had to be done
When of the meadow a evening begun
When gnomes and the fairies and that merry band
OF crckets and bullrogs chorus grand
Were chanting and croaking, unsped in the pool
Who then, would not nge while home ward from school?
Wild youth a nomad; gypsy at heart;
For innocence is of all a part;
And JOY is the gift of her free-gven bond
Awak'ning his dreams to the hills just beyond
How deity is in twights that fall,
That infinite charm which He Yields Ger us all;
The tiny live things in this hour of eve,
Deep hidden in grasses all seemed to
His full benedcions; for, all earthly things
Were drowsiy chanting in strange murmurings
I've heard the gay black bird full piping. all day.
Till notes he had naught his lutte left to play;
But strains that skim'd the wide sky,
More fair to the than the shrill piercing cry
That fell from the cat-bird fast winging alone,
At dusk in the of blazing red zone!
That cry, lone inscrutabe starting young fears,
Still fingers in memory gladden. the years.
Thus musing, CLEAN thoughts that now loom.
The where youth gazed from the high room
O'erlooking the hedge grove to hills far away
Where cattle on launches peacefully lay,
Full bahed in the moon beams, dew-laden, that shown
Like sllvery globules from paradise blown!
Alas, in their wonderment, drowsy lids found
