REGISTER AT q.

The spirit of the selective service
law is extended in bill introduced
by Senator James w. Wadsworth, Jr.
of New York. The president is author
lied to require Immediately the regis
tration of all male citizens of the
United States who have reached the
age Of 81 since June S. 1917, the first
registration day. Furthermore, Mr.
Wadsworth would give him power to
require similar registrations, at inter
walls of not more than six months. OF
all citizens who have become q since
the last registration. AS approximate
" 100000 men were registered last
June rough estimate would give 500,
600 as coming OF age every six months,
assuming that there was all equal mum,
Der of each age in the first increment.
Those men already registered who are
now beyond the age Of 81 are neverthe-
less liable to service. and it is but fair
to them that younger men should be
subject to the same requirements as
they reach the proper age. The early
passage of Senator Wadsworth' S
measure is anticipated.

THE VALUE OF A QUARTER.

The average American attaches as
much importance to a quarter as the
kaiser does to a treaty. In many coun
tries strong men work an entire day
for much smaller sum.
One purpose of the War Savings
Stamp plan is to teach the people OF
the United States the value Of quar-
ter, that properly invested it will help
win the fight against kaiserism.
People have been heard to scott at
the idea of investing a quarter now
and then in thrift stamp.
"Too small to bother WITH men
have said. And those same men have
walked blocks out of their way to
spend that quarter on some absolute.
ly worthless article.
We are so used to thinking in big
figures that even $4,000, 900, O00-the
sum to be raised in the next year by
the sale OF War Savings Stamps
fails to impress us. 1t might help US
to realize the figure to know that it
has been only matter of 1907, 200
minutes since Christ was born.
Just as those minutes mount into
billions, so your quarters will make
billions.
Twenty dollars-$1.66 month, Al Il
cents week, cents a day for the next
Mear-from each of the 100lCO0,O0
people in the United States will raise
the required sum.
Set those quarters to work buying
thrift stamps and war savings stamps
The war is going to be worth every
penny it costs if it teaches this cOun.

GERMANY TO Be
BOMBED UNTIL
she CRIES QUITS

Liverpool, April 10.-''The way to
win the war is to keep on bombing
Germany until she cries enough"
writes a Liverpool army officer from
the front in a letter to his home
newspaper.
"You at home" he adds, do not
realize how great is the air superior
ity OF the Allies on the West Front
The means of finishing off the cam
paign is to create such a feeling in
the German towns that the popula-
ton will rise and demand the ending
of the war. I know Germany well,
and the DULLES are real towards at
home. I believe that most of the Ger
man soldiers are sick of fighting,
and when they find out how much
more effectively we are air-raiding
than they; then will come the finish.
81 notice that in a raid on London
recently, 16 bombs were dropped. Do
you realize that in our air report on
Tuesday night it was stated that we
had dropped over 700 bombs? Eng
land has been slow in starting, but
she is going to be terribly effective
in the air, and from what hear, the
Americans are presently going to give
us all "a wonderful demonstration of
how air-raiding should be done.
"Ruthlessness Is the only thing a
German appreciates and fears, and
the Americans are planning to show
I it to him"
