10 eHeet tile needed saving Of wheat ws are wholly dependent upon the voluntary assistance of the American people and we ask that the following rules shall be observed:
 | HOuseholders to use not to exceed . total Of IF pounds per week of wheat products per person. This means not more than IA pounds of Victory bread containing the required percentage of substitutes and one-half pound of cooking flour, macaroni, crackers. pastry, pies, cakes, wheat Breakfast cereals, sii ce4Hbined.
 ?. Public eating places and clubs to observe two wheatless days per week, Monday and Wednesday, as at present. In addition thereto, not to serve to any one guest at any one meal an aggregate of breadstuffs. macaroni, crackers, pastry, pies, cakes, wheat breakfast cereals, containing a total of more than two ounces of wheat four, No wheat products to be served unless specially ordered.

 ,. Manufacturers using wheat prod ucts for non-food purposes should cease such use entirely.
 6. There is no limit upon the use of other cereals, Hours, and meals, corn barley, buekwheat, potato flour, ct cetera.
 Many thousand families throughout the land are nov using no wheat prod nets whatever, except very :n.au amount for cooking purposes, and are doing so in perfect health and satisfae- ton. There is no reason why all of the American people who are able to cook in their own households cannot subsist perfectly well with the use of less wheat products than one and one half pounds week, and we specially ask the well-to-do households in the country to follow this additional pro- gramme in order that we may provide the necessary marginal supplies for those parts of the community less able to adapt themselves to so large a pro- portion of substitutes.
 In order that we shall be able to make the wheat exports that are ab- solutely demanded of us to maintain the civil population and soldiers of the allies and our own army, we propose to supplement the voluntary co-opera- tion of the public by a further llmita- ton of distribution, and we shall place at once restrictions on distribution which will be adjusted from time to time to secure as nearly equitable dis tribution as possible. With the arrival of harvest we should be able to relax such restrictions. Uptil then we ask for the necessary patience, sacrifice and cooperation of the distributing trades

Great Wheat Stocks
 Isolated.

It's the shortage in ships that is putting the Allies and the United States on wheat rations. Great stocks of wheat are iso- lated in India, and Australia. At great sacrifice in ship space and use the Allies are forced to se- cure some wheat from Argentina. On January 1, Australia had stored 100,000,0O0 bushels of wheat that was ready for ex- port-but there were no ships. Then came the new crop with an exportable surplus of S0,000,- 900 bushels. Now Australia has approximately 1SO,OOO,OOO bush els waiting for ships.
 India, at the same time, had T0,000,o00 bushels of wheat stored for export. During April 5O,UOOOOO bushels more out of the new crop will be added to the pile.
 Argentina closed the last ship ping season with 100000 bushels of wheat left in the stock available for export. The new crop will add 135. 100000 to the left over.
 It is not problem that the wheat does not exist in the world-it is entirely a problem of shipping, which has thrown on America the obligation of divid- ing our stock with the Allies.

out of fix, you're out of fix.
What you want to do, and do at

THREE AMERICAN IMMORTALS

fame-in the temple of liberty and
in the pantheon of American demo-

ham Lincoln and Woodrow Wilson.
Washington was the father of his
country and its iberator from the
hordes of a despotic king. Abraham
Lincoln was the savior of the Union
and the emancipation of four million
chattel slaves. Woodrow Wilson is
the international emancipation of
the world from the blight of auto
cratic government, the rule of the
sword and the infamous dogma that
might makes right. They are all

Somewhere, some time during
these various Liberty Loans and the

But just what did "My Country"
mean to you9
Merely that you happened to be
born here2 Live here9 Make a
good living or have a prosperous
business here9
Only that and nothing more7
Did you have the feeling of the
man who shouldered rifle and
marched into the trenches7 Who
mounted an airplane and went play
ing hide and seek with death in
aerial combat with a Boche hospi-
tai bomber2 Who served on the
mosquito feet and spent nerve
racking months chasing U-boatsf
Did you take off your hat because
you thrilled to the call of country
or simply because you didn't want
to be an exception in a crowd7
And getting right down to brass
tacks what have you done for that
country7 Where has your service
been7 Soldier? Sailor7 Airman7
Or have you become a real part

If you've done none of these
things "My Country" can mean
to you. And barring your
head is only hollow mockery, the
rankest hypocrisy.
And if you haven't done anything
for your country to date for the
sake of your own self respect, your

mind, get busy.

SCHOOL
 ID BE REPAIRED
 FOR FALL TERM

The Seward public school building is to be put in proper shape for the opening of the schools in September. This was the most important transac- tion of the city councimen at the meet ing last night. Brosius & Noon estimac ed that repairing the windows, etc., would cost about $l5O but the repairs to the roof proved the mooted question It was finally decided to authorize the school committee of the council, Messrs. Cotter and Whittemore, to build new roof or repair the old one but make the improvement permanent so that the same old question would not come up every year.
 All counciltnen, and major with the exception of Whittemore, were pre- sent last night. The monthly payroll and incidental bills were read and or dered paid. Chairman Crawford of the street committee reported that the grade on Fourth avenue was completed The matter of publication of the delin- Quent tax roll was placed in the hands of the finance committee to act. As sessor Whittlesey was instructed to bring all delinquent taxes down to date and incorporated in his asseess- mcnt roll. The city clerk was instruct d to secure necessary stationery and after discussion on certaoin sidewalk needed, without action being taken, the council adjourned.

Four Big States Hit
Hard In Revenue Bill

Washington, Aug. 5.-The four
large industrial states, Pennsylvania,
New York, Massachusetts and Illi-
nois, will have to pay three-fourths
of the taxes levied in the new SS,-
900, 1000, 900 war-revenue bill. accord
ing to Representative ]. Hampton
Moore. of Philadelphia.
And we haven't enough votes to
stop it," he remarked to-day.
The way the new revenue bill is
being written" said Representative
Moore, the four large industrial
states in the country, Pennsylvania,
New York, Massachusetts and Illi-
nois, must pay three-fourths of the
$4,000, 100000 in taxes that will be
collected next year.
These four large states are pay
ing about that same proportion un-
der the present law, but we hoped
that in writing the new bill the
Ways and Means Committee would
reach out and find new sources of
revenue for the billions of dollars of
increased revenue that we need.
The new bill is being written,
however, with taxes on industries al
its basis, and the four large indus
trial states have not enough votes
en- the Ways and Means Committee
to stop it."

fore" or because" In other words,
do not let the child know that you
are giving a reason.
How would you cope with
this situation?" asked another
mother. "A child has disobeyed
and you ask why he did what
you had forbidden and he an
swers, Because 1 wanted to-
Because I wanted to-" is a very
natural and truthful answer to your
question. The thing for you to do
in the future is to avoid a similar
question. To ask a young child why
he disobeyed suggests that you are
finding fault with him. and in most
cases, the child will give a curt an
swer.
Another reason why it is advisable
to avoid trying to get a child to es-
plain his past action is that it sug-
gests you do not understand him. 1t
is very important from the stand
point of results to assume that you
understand a child perfectly Exper-
ience has taught that this assump-
tiot is the practical one.
When your child does wrong, show

in a friendly though firm way what
you will expect in the future.

Germans See Hope
in American Army

With the American Army on the
man soldiers generally welcome the
news that more American soldiers
are arriving in France, believing that
the faster the Americans arrive the
sooner there will be decisive bat
tie or a definite peace move, accord
ing to a sergeant of the Fourth
Prussian Guards division, who was
captured by the Americans near
Sergy.
The prisoner told the correspond
ert that the German soldiers were
sick of the war, and also that the
poorer classes in Germany had had
sufficient war, and they believe now
that Germany is bound to lose. The
capitalists, however, insist on con-
tinuing the war at all costs.
German officers" the prisoner
said, Informed us months ago that
the Americans were taking few pris-
oners and that those taken were
treated inhumanly. They kept warn
ing us constantly that death was
preferable to being captured by the
Americans, but not all the German
soldiers believed that, despite the
high regard in which officers are
supposed to be held.
Among the German soldiers it
vas common talk that If any one OF
them had a good chance to be taken
prisoner in the hands of the Anne
cans, he would do so, providing he
