USEFUL JOBS.

From present indications there is to be an anpre-
cedented shift OF employment in American industries In
fact. the shift has already begun. AS the recen. order
issued by Provost Marshal General Crowder takes effect.

THE ROADSIDE r

Indiana farmers are urged to establish roadside mar
kets for the sale of their products TO passing automobile
lists. The United States food administration, in a special
bulletin just addressed to county administrators suggests
that the farmer might dispose of a large amount OF
perishables and the motorist profit by a reduced price
through such an arrangement. The suggestion is that
a stand be placed convenient to the roadside where ii
might be attended by the housewife or children. A bull
letin board might announce the kind and quality Of The
produce offered and the price stated.
Reports made to the food administration state that
other states have found the roadside market a very
successful enterprise, appealing especially to a class Of
motorists who ride in the evenings for pleasure II has
been found the source Of the saving OF A considerable
truck tonnage and frequently has served to save farm
labor by enabling the farmer and his family 20 spend the
time in the fields rather than en- route to and from the
city market.

DEBT WHICH THE LIVING
OWE TO THOSE DEAD

Premier Clemenceau uses memoir
able words when he says: I'VE shall
never lay down the arms we were
forced to take up in self-defence
until we have v%anquished the spirit
OF despotic oppression against which
we struggle. This is a debt we owe
our dead"
Lincoln expressed the same idea
when he pledged the nation. at Get
tysburg, to a continuation OF the war
for national unity, that these dead
shall not have died in vain" To
conclude a premature and inconclu-
sive peace would be to dishonor the
brave men who have given their lives
for the cause of human liberty. Their
sacrifice must be justified by our
persistence in the struggle until a
'ust and victorious peace is achieved.
