WHAT ABOUT 1T LADIEs7

Plans for assisting the wives Of farmers during the
burden of the harvest. have been proposed by the WON
an section of the Indiana State Council Of Defense. to
the chairmen of the Home Economics committees of the
several county councils Of defense, in the state. The
suggestion is that the patriotic women and girls in towns
organize a club Of volunteers who will help prepare the
food necessary for the increased number of workmen nee
essitated by the heavier crops; and cooperate in the con
serving of the large quantities of fruits ana vegetables
that might otherwise be lost.
II is recommended that the opportunity exists in
every county 10 accomplish q vast saving, without great
EFFORT. through proper organization. 1t is apparent, the
bulletin SAYS, that much Of the food stuff will be lost
except that extra efforts are made to save it.
The idea of the bulletin came from Vevay, Switzer-
land county. where it is said to have been put into exc
cution with very satisfactory results.

WHAT LETTERS WILL DO.

PARIS-Letters are one Of the
most essential factors in keeping
our mems hearts and spirits up and
spirit is needed now that our boys
are getting into the real fighting.
Therefore, fathers and mothers,
remember that through your letters
the men get their happiest diversion
in the field. So send them often.
Through letters the men derive com
fort and cheer.
Don't tell your troubles-your boy
has his own. Give him the local
news. Letters are the soldiers tonic
ard help powerfully to maintain the
army's morale. Use al your inhu-
encs 90 improve the postal service.

RALsToN FORGOT THIS AT THE CONVENTION.

thirtyeight young men OF military age who have been
exempted from service by the request of the State De
partment. Young Ralston obtained his job a few months
ago and it would be illuminating to know just wherein
his services are of a nature so valuable that it was
deemed expedient to ask his exemption. What calls
especial attention to this case is the fact that the sen
ior RaIston last week delivered a speech before the dem
ocratic state convention bitterly arraigning republicans
for daring to criticize any act Of the administration and
boastingly setting up the claim that all of the achieve
ments of the war are the achievements of the demo
cratic party. II was a speech of bubbling patriotism
but somehow it might a rung a little near true had Julian
Ralston been in France with those scrappy Roosevelt
clubs instead of holding down a safety first job in a
Washington ofice-Fort Wayne News.
We might also ask Tom Marshall who thought he
was awfuly funny with his Lady Theodore speech
where his sons were and also what he has done TO win
the war that will in any way compare with Roosevelts
various services?

Judge Dean Would Net Let SIanderer
Of Country Off With
Mere Fine.

Fairmont, Mimi, January 49,
Henry Miller, born in Germany, came
to Martin county twenty-six years
ago and bought 240 acres of land at
SIT an acre. He paid for the land out
of its productiveness. Today it is
worth $3.50 an acre, or $4,000. Mil
Ter has retired.
But when the country under whose
protection Miller achieved his fortune
went to war for the rights of human
lty and offered Liberty Bonds to
obtain funds to equip it's forces he
did not buy.
When the Y. M. C. A. asked for
subscriptions to care for the soldiers
he did not help.
When the Red Cross called for
money to minister to the wounded he
had nothing to give.
He went further and stated to
loyal citizens that America is all
wind and blow; that it is a damned
poor country and that the kaiser is
all right"
Before Judge E. C. Dean today
Miller pleaded guilty to these state
ments, and was sentenced to sixty
days in the county JAIL
Let me pay a fine, don't want to
go behind the bars" Miller cried.
You have money to pay fine, but
none for Liberty bonds" Judge Dean
replied. You will go to JAIL"

SammIes Forbidden From Jotting

While in the Service.
limited Press D;sn.tob !


Camp Dodge, Ia, January 1S.-All
the pretty diaries the Sammies here
received for Christmas presents will
have to go unused by the selective
service men and officers here. Rea-
son-keeping of diaries and note
books by the soldier is forbidden.
The war department has ruled that
the use of these books must be dis
couraged. Hence fifty years from
now when the soldiers of the great
war tell their grandchildren how
they sank their teeth in the kaiser's
ear or boosted him through the Ho-
henzollern roof, they'll have to rely on
their memories.
The Hun soldiers have been keep
ing diaries and other notes and as a
result every time some boche is. TAX
en- by the allies the officers know
just what happened, why, and where.
The American commanders don't
want Americans to be such sources
of information
The boche too is letting up in his
mania for keeping diary evidently
through orders of the commanders, for
recent captives from Teuton ranks
have been without note books.
