DYING "OVER THERE"

Hon. Gunnar B. Bjornson is writing
some splendid patriotic articles for his
paper, the Minneota Mascot, these days.
Under the caption Of political Cam
outage Not Wanted" there appeared
an exceptionally fine article in the
editorial columns Of the Mascot last
week, from which we quote:
But the more homes there are that
have in them the soldiers empty chair,
the more golden stars there are, upon
the service flags of the different COM
munities, to attest the supreme sacri-
flee of some brave lad, the more diff
cult it will be for the disloyal and the
Indifferent to live and move and have
their being among us.
Every home from which a soldier
has gone forth is a protest against dis
LOYALTY, every golden star is burn
ing beacon that should make the Sc
ditious hide their faces for very
shame!
Every list of the dead thunders to
the Indifferent and the disloyal, thou
traitor!
It is not enough now that you do
not "say anything against the govern
ment." That sort of negative camou-
flage has long since ceased to be
virtue.
The time has come when your
patriotism has to be positive, asser-
tive, open and unqualified -and, by the
eternal, you have got to let people
know that it's there!
The loyal people Of this country are
not going to stop to take an inventory
of you to find out whether or not there
is hidden, somewhere. about you,
spark of patriotism. No, not on your
life!
Americans are dying every day now,
for their country. There is every
reason to believe that thousands on
thousands will have to go the same
way before this thing is over. And
still, here at home, political parties
are fighting for the spoils OF office and
frantic knaves are foaming at the
mouth over fancied grievances!
A fight for spoils and profit at home
and our boys are dying lover there!"

A grip full of little black boxes that
looked like cameras.
'Here yer are" he shouted, "for two

angle, and you'll be able to look into
A second-story window and see what's

"In the old way, when you wanted
to peep through a keyhole you went
down on your launches, at some per-

was always the danger Of being shot

needle. Buy n of the cute little TOYS

without endangering life or limb, you
can see all that's going on in the room"
Nearly every n who stopped fished
out a dime and bought one. Then q
cop came along, the fakir slipped away
and the crowd melted. Everybody who
bought the little camera" tried to
work it 40 different ways, and then
discovered that they had been stung.

When a coat dress has a waistline at
all it is either high or low, never quite
where the old-fashioned waistline is
supposed to be.
The coat which has only a back
waistline has it low, and both the up
per and lower parts of the coat are
lightly eased into the band which indi-
Gates it. The sash belt is more often
placed a little high on one side, with a
droop on the other, where it is knotted
or Topped.
Where there is a belt all round it is
not unusual for the fastening to show
one end buttoned about an inch higher
than the other end, the buttons then
being fixed to the coat.

WORTH THINKING ABOUT

The children didn't start the
war. Don't let it rob them of
their pleasures.
The man who is satisfied with
himself is too easily pleased.
Make up your mind to this:
We are in q worlds war, and
there is no provision made for
spectators.
When the truth is in your way
you are on the wrong road.
Most men aim to live we'll
but in preparing for the great
crop of immortality a good
many things will have to be
plowed under.
