WORLD WANT
BY BARNETTA BROWN
Of the Viuilantes.

Place your elbows on your knees
put your head in your hands. and
think. Many strange things are
happening. Unprecedented conditions
abound. Those who have carefully
studied the world situation tell us that
we may have to face widespread world
want If we are not forethoughted and
forehanded. With millions Of men
turned from their usual occupation Of
helping to provide the necessaries OF
life, depending on others for food and
clothing while they fight, the industrial
order Is thrown completely out of bal.
ance. The ship Of state is passing
through troubled waters. What can
we do, what must we do, to insure safe
passage?

How to Prevent II.

World want cannot be prevented By
hoardings. Neither is anyone's safety
dependent on the amount Of money he
has hidden away. Safety depends on
the sane, wise, unselfsh use of the re-
sources of the nation. Every mans re-
sources are the resources of the ma
tlon. Safety depends on the willing
ness Of the individual to share now
with the government every resource
he possesses-thought, activities. mon
ey. The right, free use Of these, our
powers, should be towards production,
not restriction. OF what avail will
money be later, If there should be lit
tie or nothing to buy? The govern
ment is trying to speed up production.
II will try harder by-and-by. Help on
towards your own safety and the safe
ty of all by helping the government.
Therefore, buy Thrift stamps, War
Saving stamps, Liberty bonds.
SO do you put your hand, with all
the other hands, on the helm of our
ship, and become one of the pilots who
will steer 1t through the storm to
safe harbor.
