Community patriotism is the soil
from which national patriotism
springs, and it must be cultivated in
order that it may bring forth the best
fruit. After peace is declared we
shall find ourselves living in diff
ferent world. Old things will have
passed away and all things become
new. No community should longer
rest content under conditions that do
not favor the development Of the
highest type of citizenship and the
broadest enjoyment of the benefits
of modern civilization. Good roads;
modern well equipped schools and
churches in both town and country;
community recreation centers, librar-
les, and other welfare buildings are
some of the objects that the res
idents of every community should
strive for, and in the movements
looking to their attainment the local
lumber merchants should be leaders.
Everything that helps build up COM
munity or make it better place in
which to live benefits every line of
business there and particularly the
lumber usiness.-American Lumber

Richard Jones, editor of the Labor
World at Duluth, does not think
much Of the adjustment Of the pri-
mary law. Opinions differ in> this
as we'll as other matters. AS at
present constituted, the primary law
is farce. It simply gives the Boil
shiviki a chance to do it to others.
The democrats nominate weak men
for the republicans and elect their
own party men and vice-versa. The
last election showed what could be
done. The present plan gives anyone
with money enough to pay the filing
fees chance to get on the ticket and
it makes no odds as to his standing
in the world. This may be democ-
racy but it makes strange bedfel
lows among those wishing to serve in
office. The ordinary patriot objects
to getting on ballot with lot OF
red fiaggers and disciples of Kaiser
Bill. By keeping them off the bal
lot the necessity Of kicking them off
will be removed. The law needs
changing. How, is the question.

With two more Liberty Loans
coming it behooves US all to begin to
get ready for them. These bonds are
going to be foated. The govern
ment is going to get the money from
you and I and it is up to us to meet
the bond sellers with smile. It will
be better to buy than to refuse and
then have it come in the end through
taxation. Our best way out of it is
to "dig" and buy with the dig every
dollar of government bonds we can
absorb. They are the best old buy
in the world, anyhow and so let us
begin now to lay by for the day
when the call comes and thus beat
off the special tax which is sure to
come if the bonds cannot be fioated.
Look at it in that light and be cheer
full about it.

taken the matter up years ago.
Illinois last month voted bond issue
of $50, 900, 900 to provide a network
of hard, permanent highways
throughout the state. Illinois pro-
noses to take care of the principal
and interest of the bonds by special
tax on automobiles based entirely
upon the horsepower of the vehicles.
The automobile men are for it be-
cause better roads means money
saved for gasoline, tires and upkeep
and they can afford to donate few
extra cents in the shape Of tax.
This will listen good to the down
state legislator who is working under
the misapprehension that the farmer
is building all the roads and that the
auto owner is the only one using
them.

Let us not forget the idea of the
Community Building. Ely has no
place where a homeless man can
spend his evenings or his spare time.
We have no Carnegie libraries, no
rest rooms, no Clubs where one with
time to spend can go and spend it
properly. That building is needed.
Such building would be the head
quarters of many young man and
woman to the betterment of each.
Time spent threre need not be wasted
or misused. Ely certainly needs a
place of this kind. Keep the idea
green and let's make it grow into a
building we each shall point to with
pride.

After all the old volunteer way ,

After all the old volunteer way of
raising an army was obsolete. Under
the conscriptive method we did
things. Each man stood upon his
merits and these were called upon
to do their duty without the delay Of
volunteering them. In war time we
each stand on a common base. It is
our fight whether we are old or
young, crippled or an athlete, and
matters are not in our individual
hands for disposition. Rich and
poor alike stand upon plane of
equality and this is right. Money
or influence should not buy immunity
when the safety of our country is at
stake. Never again the old volun-
teer system.

TO TEST STRENGTH OF HEART
Simple Method Which Is Credited to
the Invention of German Men
of Science.

There is new way of diagnosing
heart disease. 1t was discovered in
Germany and is based upon the prin-
ciple that extremely slight motion in
the air> will form similar changes in
burning flame.
Two small smoking gas flames are
used, and around these is twined a
wide paper tape The flames cause
bands of SCOT to appear upon the sur
face of the tape.'
Over the heart of the patient an in
strument somewhat similar to tele-
phone transmitter is placed. This
transmitter has very sensitive
diaphragm. It's vibrations are dupli-
Gated by tube to a gas chamber
through which passes the gas for one
of the flames.
The slight flaming Of the gas in re-
sponse to the various vibrations result
in Characteristic rings of smoke on the
paper tape. From these abnOrmalities
in the heartbeat can be read. Time
is recorded by the second flame, intlu-
enced similarly by vibrations from a
tuning fork. The smokerings vary in
shape and position according. to the
character of vibration causing them,
and so help to simplify the diagnosis.

Chasing the CaIorN.

The first step toward spreading the
mysterious cult of the calory has been
taken at an Opportune time. Unhappy
man, deprived of his daily beefsteak
and forced to subsist on corn mullins
In which many alien hands have ex-
perimented, may derive n mOdicum of
comfort from the chase of the calory.
Formerly sequestered in domestic sci
ence schools, or the exclusive property
of those sybarites Of the tenement
houses, who have proverbially many
advantages of which humdrum uptown
knows nothing, the calorie has at last
emerged into relations with the ordi-
nary hungry notwithstanding popu-
lace. On our menu cards now the
calorie rides hand in hand with the
cost of each dish.--New York Tribune.
