PATRIOTIC ATTITUDE.

Business men of Columbia have
shown the right spirit the only real
patriotic spirit toward the order Of
Fuel Administrator Garfield. OF
course it might be stated that the
business men are under the necessity
Of obeying the order of their govern
ment, but there are two days in which
to do a necessary act, one is gradg-
ingly and the other is gracefully and
@ympathetcal'y The business men
nj Columbia have adopted the latter
course. They are going to obey the
order because they recognized its ne.
ceGsity or at least agree thai those in
authority were convinced Of its ne
lcessity before the order was made.
Nothing but whole hearted support Of
the dutly constituted authorities OF
the nation In this crisis will win the
war. War means hardships. 1t Is
pureiy an abnormal condition. Devo-
lion and sacrifice are necessary.

CLOSE THE SCHOOLS.

There should be a general and
prompt response to the appeal Of the
officials of the government to close
the public schools for three weeks.
where the schools are heated with
coal A request from the authorized
representatives of the nation in time
Of war comes with all the sancitity OF
formal order. II it we're not neees-
sary, if the emergency did not exist
this request would not be made. War
Is purely and wholly an abnormal con-
iition and must be regarded all the
time as such. Everything, every in
terest, must be wholly subordinated
TO the supreme interest of this nation
now engaged in death struggle to
sustain and perpetuats the principles
that gave it birth.
1t is quite true, wholly undeaiable
that the closing of the schools for
three weeks will be demoralizing, but
80 Is every interest demoralized dur
ing war. 1t will be much more de.
moralizing to the nation If this war
is not won than the three weeks en-
forced vacation will be to the schools.

public. \
Just 90 soon a. the president save
his emphatic approval to the Garfield
coal order the senators Who had voted
to ressind that order. including tho
tive from Tennessee. took 70 the tall
timber. They realized what fools
tn csc mortals be-" The people gave
almost unanimous support to the fuel
order from the first. A fow selfish
interests objected and telegraphed TO
their senators. The latter became
panic stricken. thought the whole
world was in protest and dreaming Of
their coming elections. reached the
hurried conclusion that II they did
not go on record against fuel con
servation, the senate would never
again know them again. But they
awoke to find out that the plain PEG
pie who do the voting. as usual. were
perfectly willing to trust Woodrow"
as they affectionately cali the Pres
idsnt.

ESCHEW POLITICS

Bill Stone, of Missouri. made a
sorry spectacle of himself in the SEN
ate when he sought to arouse partisan
animosities in the conduct of the
war. There should be no democrats
and no republicans in the congress of
the United States There should be
only loyal and patriotic American cit
izens. The senator who would, in
this hour of the nations distress, seeli
70 obtain partisan advantage is no
better than the profiteer, in fact he Is
worse, for special obligation rests
upon him under his oath of office to
faithfully serve his country. Politics
has absolutely no part nor place in
the senate al this time.
1t does not lie in the mouth of Bill
Stone to arraign any man for lack OF
oyalty to the country His attitude
rom the beginning of the great war
has been reasonable to the interests
of the Anglo-Saxon people and the
civilization for which this nation and
its heroic allies are sacrificing every
thing. But Stone is a little man,
narrow man. He has no place in the
senate, especially at this time. He
cares more for little personal advan-
.ages and political ends than he does
'or the interests of the nation.
The Herald holds no brief for
Theodore Roosevelt. His conduct
since his disappointment in not being
permitted to serve at the front, has
not been commendable. He has de,
yeloped into narrow, carping critic
but there is more real. genuine Amer
can patriotism to the square inch in
Teddy Roosevelt than there is to the
square yard in Bill Stone. Humanity
civilization, liberty, everything for
which this nation is waging desperate
battle, would perish from earth II
they depended for their saviors on
Bill Stone. Teddy is a picturesque
character, often erratic and unsafe
but no man can question his red
blooded Amerieanism and devotion to
country. Four sons and a son-in-law
at the front should silence forever the
seditious tongues of the Bill Stones
The republicans may have played
some politics. These are little men
in that party. but surely mon like
Lodge in the senate and Khan in the
house are not to be held up to ridi-
oule By Bill Stone. They have given
the president loyal support and thew
nation patriotic service. And what Of
that gallant hero, that splendid repsb-
licsn who bat recently gave his life
to the nation, Maj. Augustus r. Gard
nor No pastisensaip In his soadset

SAVE THE FOOD.

Columbia public eating places are
not making an enviable record for OBJ
iservance OF the requests of the United
States Food Administration. Many
OF them are paying absolutely no at
aention to the request that they save
meat and wheat flour. They are max
ing no effort to observe meatless
Tuesday and Wheatless Wednesday
One would never observe from their
menus that the nation is at war; that
civilization Is in death grapple with
Prussian autocracy This attitude OF
indifference to the will OF the nation.
this treatment of official requests
with contempt shows woeful lack OF
patriotism.
Already hundreds OF the finest
young men OF Maury county have
5oined the colors. Many OF them will
never return. They will pour out
their life's blood on the plains OF
france. And yet at home are some
20 Indifferent that they will not join
n movement to make certain the sue
ress of the cause for which these
young men will die by trying to con.
serve the nations and the worlds
limited supply of essential food stuffs.
Surely IL men can leave homes and
Families and give up promising ca
reers to offer their all upon the
sacred altar of country the proprietors
II eating places who have made no
real sacrifice can do something for
the cause
Maury county has made a splendid
record so far In its response to the
appeals of the government. 1t has
soversubscribed requests for money: 1t
has purchased literally OF Liberty
Bonds and it has had 4 larger number
of volunteers than the average county
4pf Middle Tennessee. It's citizens
signed the pledge cards of the food
administration with enthusiasm
Under these circumstances it is all
tho more difficult to understand the
indifference of the proprietors of the
public eating places and boarding
houses.
In order that there may be no
misunderstanding The Herald is glad
aD state that the Hotel Bethel Of
which Mayor j. NJ Dedman is pro-
prietor is observing in good faith the
requests of the feed administration by
saving wheat, meats, sugar and fats.
The Herald hopes that the mayor will
use his Influence TO bring others into
line. In view Of his own good record
in this respect he can consistently
appeal to others to make this sacri.
flee.

WILSON HITS BACK

Smarting under the continued un.
just criticism and fault finding OF
captious critics in the senate Presi-
dent Wilson has issued reply that
should and no doubt will prove con-
vineing to all disinterested observers
The President has called down and
called down hard the usually sensible
and conservative Senator Chamber

!tary affairs committee Of the sen.
ate. The senator let his tongue run
ANY, W. him at a New York baa-
quet and made charges that could not
be sustained. His effort to answer
the president was pitifully weak one
and was practically confession that
he did not know what he was talking
about.
As the president says there have
unquestionaly been many mistakes
made in the war preparations. There
have been niscarriages of plans as
there have always been and always
will be. Some incompetent men have
been appointed to high places, but an
administration is judged by the re-
suits achieved. And by this standard
assuredly the Wilson administration
can afford to be judged. 1t has been
both in times of peace and in war an
administration of achievement. Real
y wonderfully fine results have been
achieved in war preparations. The
vital creation of an army. equipped.

RECOMMENDS USE or OYSTERS

n-NS""GNO0 Joe VT OfSt ERS
The Bureau of Fisheries, Depart
ment of Commerce, is distributing q
poster giving reasons for eating oys-
tiers more generally. The oyster pro-
duction Of the United States Is great
er than that of all other countries
combined, and there is available in
this resource vast quantity of an
lmal food which should be utilized to
the utmost at this time.
Federal and state inspections are
now given to the sanitary condition
OF the beds and the handling of oys-
tiers, and the producers are cooperat-
ing to assure the purity OF the pro-
duct
Particular attention is called to not
only the harmlessness but the excel
lence of "green-gilled" oysters. The
gray-green color characteristic of this
condition is never found on the body
OF the oyster, but is confined to the
8llls, neshy plates which are brought
into view when the edge of the oyster
"crlmps" in cooking. 1t is derived
from vegetable coloring matter in
some of the delicate microscopic
plants on which the shellfish feeds.
Green-gilled oysters are usually fat
and of excellent flavor and in France
are regarded as the best obtainable
IN the United States there has existed
prejudice against them on account
OF the erroneous belief that the color
Is due to copper.
Inc bureau recommends oysters az
without waste. digestible, wholesome
and affording an appetizing variant tn

tho firing limo must have ther loon
and munitions even II We on this side
must do without The food supply
for our allies must not stop either.
Congress duly enacted law vest
ing this power in the administration.
That law was debated for months.
Yet the very first time that the dras
tic powers conferred are exercised IN
the public interest; in humanity's IN
tercst. members of the senate howl
IKE whipped children and without any
sort OF information OF investigation.
without any adequate knowledge OF
the situation solemnly vote to take
administrative power away from the
resident and his advisers and con.
fer 1t upon congress. The very day
that congress undertakes to adminis'
ter the affairs Of this government that
very day will the doom Of the nation
be sounded in this war.
1t Is difficult TO understand how
senator's who profess their loyalty to
the nation and their confidence in
the president could have voted to sus
pend this order. Surely they cannot
claim that President Wilson does not
know what he is doing or that As
would take any drastic course with
out sufficient reasons therefor. No
one is surprised that democrats like
Stone and Reed and Vardaman voted
to embarass the nation, but it Is as
tonishing that Tennessee's senators
who have so often protested their
loyalty to the administration voted
with them.
There il but one course for loyal
Americans to pursue now and that Is
one OF unquestioned obedience to and
answering loyalty to the mandates
OF the duly constituted authorities of
the nation. II President Wilson and
has advisers are not thoroughly loyal
and entirely capable of solving the
tremendous problems now confronting
the nation then in deed there is no
hope for escape from the domination
OF German imperialism and this war
is already failure.
OF course the fuel order is going to
cause great loss and inconvenience,
1t will mean an enormous loss to both
capital and labor. Millions OF dollars
will be lost through the suspension
Of industries, but war is a time fol
sacrifice not for money making While
capital and labor are losing part OF
their earnings in order that the chan
nels of communication TO our soldiers
may be kept open thousands and
thousands Of the noblest young men
of America will be pouring out their
life blood upon the ensanguined
plains of Europe. Their loss will be
irreperable, that Of capital and labor
mere bagatelle in comparison. Very
properly DR.. Garfield and the P!'esi
dent have placed the interests of our
armed forces above those Of the sci
fish individuals who are unwilling
that the stream of gold flowing to
them as the result of the blood and
sacrifice Of others should be inter
rupted for a moment.
Senators and business men have re.
peatedly applauded the splendid SEN
timent of the president wnen he de
clared that to this task we must ded
icate our lives and our fortunes, every.
thing that we are and everything that
we have" but the very moment the
pinch comes, the very first hour they
are required to make real and gen.
uine sacrifice they howl like spoiled
child deprived Of its cherished candy.
