Over 700 Men Sent.

1t is quite surprising the number Of
young men who have been sent under
the selective draft from this county
for military service. You have noticed
that the young men are gone from
the different communities, but it is
hard to believe that over 700 have
actually been sent forth to battle for
world freedom from Harrison county
alone, but such is the case.
The first draft was September S
last year and nine boys left for Camp
Dodge, but the complete record is as
follows:

The big mistake that most parents
make in dealing when a boy of this
type is that they let the child's mood
influence theirs and consequently
they show temper. But this is very
unwise. If you want the best re-
suits, maintain a calm, but firm at
| titude, which suggests to the child
that you have the situation abso-
lutely in hand. Then you are in a
position, the moment the boy shows
the least sign of a friendly spirit, to
respond to him courteously and
thereby reward him for his desired
change of attitude. This is not only
I impossible, in case you show dis
gust, but the boy would not very
quickly change his attitude in the
first place.
The two great general causes of
disobedience are a lack of friend
ship between parent and child and a
lack of consistent firmness on the
part of the parent. OF course. vari-
Gus factors may serve as causes for
disobedience in particular cases, but
each of them is related directly or
| indirectly to one or the other of the
two fundamental causes.
Your child's obedience, therefore.
will practically be assured If you
are consistently friendly and, at the
same time, consistently firm when
| firmness is required.

In October, 1917, through the in
fluence of a prominent German Of
ficer, who was a patient of mine, /
secured permission to accompany
my wife to Warnemunde, from which
port she was to sail for Copen-
hagen.
On the way back to Berlin, all
the available seats in the first and
second-clasS compartments were
taken and l had to occupy a third
class compartment in the train. AL
though this was somewhat less COM
Portable, II was rather glad of the
experience because it enabled me to
oNerhear an extremely enlightening
conversation between the seven or
eight passengers who shared the
compartment with me. They were
of the common people-the back
bone of the empire-and their point
of view was we'll worth considera-
ton.
AS soon as l realized the drift of
their remarks, 1 sank down in my
corner seat and pretended to be

guarded in their utterances if they
realized or suspected that a for

everywhere triumphant. But when
the ordinary mode of life was being
constantly changed by one military
restriction after another and the
pinch of hunger and deprivation be-
gan to be felt throughout the en-
pire, then the people began to ask
questions.
Why haven't the U-boats subju-
gated the English fleet and opened
the German ports, and together with
the Zeppelins brought England to
her knees? Why does the war,
which was to be over in three
months, now. enter it's third year?
Why are we pressing into French
and Russian territory if our only
object is to defend our borders +?
Why are we suffering for lack of
food and clothing. if we are winning
in the field?
BY the time America came into
the war, in April, 1917. conditions
had become very bad from an eco
nomic standpoint and the murmer-
ing of the people was becoming more
pronounced. People were now not
only asking questions; they were be-
ginning to insist upon answers.
Strikes were breaking out all over
the country. Robbery and bribery
of the nation. The birth rate had
declined at an alarming rate and
the death. rate among civilians was
rapidly climbing.
Poor food and insufficient nour-
ishment were beginning to make
themselves felt and seen. The ma
ton was being slowly but surely
starved to death and the people were
beginning to realize it. Ersatz-
ubstitute-foods were not enough
to satisfy physical requirements.
They might deceive the eye but they
couldn't deceive the blood.
The suffering that the people had
to endure began to undermine their
faith in their rulers. I heard MUIR
muring on the streets and in the
street cars, and patients who came
into my office were not hesitant in
expressing themselves freely about
the outlook

Then she stopped again, horribly
embarrassed. Butler must have
heard her acknowledge that she
had had letter from Wade. He
also must know by this time that
Douglas was engaged to Alice But
ler.
There is something l must tell
YOU" she said abruptly. Her breath
came fast. The most casual observ-
er could not fail to see that she was
deeply agitated.
There is nothing that you must
tell me-" he corrected gravely.
Whats more, do not want to hear
anything that you do not really
want to confide to me-"
Thank YOU" she murmured, look
ing toward the head of the stairs.
She feared that Amos Chaplin might
be listening to the conversation be-
tween his two boarders.

into the big parlor, and now seated
herself in the corner of a black
horsehair sofa. The man drew Il
chair opposite and sat down.

She was talking against time. in
the hope of calming her beating

But her plan did not have the de-
sired result. for Johns next speech
set her pulses to racing madly.

There was nothing to be gained
by pretending any longer. She
would confess that she was no rela-

There was an awkward silence
after John Butler had made his re-
mark. Elizabeth felt she must
speak.
"1-I-was just talking to poor
old Talak out there" indicating the
front porch. He has looked queerer
than ever since his dog was killed.
l wonder what's going on in that
crazy brain of his?"
He has been practically useless
for the past week or two-or so

heard him tell Talak he was going TO
discharge him as soon as IL suited
his convenience to do SO. Ii the
poor fellow had sense enough he
would Leave. anyway. But l suppose
he knows that, with his inetficiency.

knows it too. And that is why he
bullies the poor wretch, and threat
ems him. l hate Talak myself-but

She paused, remembering tnat
man of whom she was saying such
bitter things was supposed to be
the husband of her cousin. But But
Ter did noJ seem astonished at her
vchemence.

said quietly. And l sympathize
with your indignation. You see,
