They have told the president that
in their opinion the first few weeks

eomplished there will be work for
every man, woman and child now

returned to private life.
The Presidents attention has been
directed to the enormous construc-
ton program delayed for over two
years because of war necessities
Hardly community but must now
expend and production of materials
for this work alone, is likely to tax
raw material production. There are
. many new, industries as a result of
the war, chief OF them, the dye pro-
juctlon which can now be started
up full speed ahead" The United
States, when its shipping program is
completed, will be able to open up
the market of South America in
lines planned more than three years
ago and there is hardly Single fac
tory in the country, even those
erected especially for war work. that
cannot easily be converted to a
peace time basis.
Several of the business men who
have conferred with the president
since it became certain thatrfh war
was over, have pointed out to him
that this country is better prepared
10 expand than any nation ever was
before in the history of the world.

NEW YORK BARGE CANAL RIVALS
PANAMA FEAT.

The opening of the New York Barge
Canal this spring, after twelve years OF
construction work, is an event that will
be of national import, says Stanley w.
Todd in the April Popular M echanics
Magazine. Its particular value to the
nation at this juncture, is that it opens
up a new water route from the Great
Lakes, across the central part OF the
State to the Hudson River, and thence to
the Atlantic seaboard. In other words,
it links up the middle West, Great Lakes,
Canada and the St Lawrence River, with
the unexcelled shipping facilities on our
Atlantic coast. 1t will permit the move
ment of a barge, or fleet of smaller
barges, carrying nearly 5000 tons of
freight 1t can help move foodstutfs
from points as remote as Duluth, Mimi,
and carry munitions and ordnance from
the manufacturing centers on the Great
Lakes in the middle West, direct to the
Atlantic fleet and waiting vessels. The
New York Barge Canal is not simply one
channel running across the State, but
four different waterways linked into one
system, covering distance of 532 miles
The locks vary in height of lift anywhere
from to 40 1-2 feet. The five structures
at Waterford have combined lift of 1863
feet, or just one foot less than the total
lift of all locks in the Panama Canal.
These are said to be the greatest series of
high-lift locks in the world.

the war. Admiral Count Won Goetzen
said to Major Bailey, U. S. A., visiting
abroad, "After we finish up our work in
Europe, we will take New York and
probably Washington and hold them for
some time" Official Germany knew
that it was intended to attack America
at the close of the war in Europe. Am
bassador Gerard affirms, cit was in the
kaiser's mind to pick quarrel with our
country soon as possible after smashing
England and France" A. Curtis Roth,
Vice Consul at Plauen, states, "The Ger
mans are imbued with the idea that
America must be made to suffer. That
America must indemnify the German
people. Behind these ideas were the
German army and navy-the pan Ger
mans-the ArgrarianS-conservat of
all hues-the National Liberals-the Ma
tional German committeeman the Ger
man government" Germany started the
war but expects to compel America to
pay the costs.
Wake up you Americans from the
fantastic dream that your contention is
only with the German rulers. The whole
of Germany is fiercely against you; and if
they set foot on Yankee soil will endeav-
or to skin you alive. We know our dam
ger Until the unholy German govern
ment is smashed; and the German classes
are whipped to a stand still; there will
hang over our women and our homes, the
same viciousness melted out to the homes
and women of Belgium.
Now that the American sword is drawn
in defense, keep that sword flashing and
swinging, until the Allies are ready to
tell Germany what she shall do with Bel
GUM and France. Keep that sword
flashing until the Kaiser, his lords, phil
osophers and hordes of pillagers, are
whipped into submission. Keep that
sword flashing, until we have that kind
of peace which the American sword shall
make permanent Keep the sword flash
ing until all peoples shall be secure in
their right to follo,. the pursuits of hap
piness, without dctation from Gar or

Children Like to Take 1t.

Thousands of children have worms and
their parents don't know what the trouble
is.
Symptoms of worms are: Deranged
stomach, swollen upper lip, sour stomach,
offensive breath, hard and full belly with
occasional gripings and pains about the
navel, pale face of leaden tint, eyes heavy
and dull, twitching eyelids, itching of the
nose, itching of the rectum, short dry
cough, grinding of the teeth, little red
points sticking out on tongue, starting
during sleep, slow fever.
Always keep Dr. True's Elixir on hand
for such cases. It is promptly effective
and the nice thing about it is that chill
dren like to take it.
Mrs H. w. Roberts of 500 Asylum ST.,
Flint, Michigan, wrote to us: "Have used
the Elixir and as far as know my little
girl is cured of worms" She wrote in
again later saying, "Baby is fine and l
think it was your medicine that helped
her."
DR.. True's Elixir, the Family Laxative
and Worm Expeller, has been on the
market more than 60 years and more and
more people are using it all the time to
expel worms, or to tone up the stomach
