Do the work that IL offered
you. even II you think you r

AT WAR.
Loyalty In these days should
consist Of acts. not mere words.
IT'S WAR.
The only place for a "croaker'

or hear him In the open. now or
after the war.
Show consideration for other
workers, SO as to make 1t easier
for them to do their bit for OUR

We are fighting for the lives
Of our own and for those who
believe In justice and decency.,
It Is time the masked German
barbarians were thoroughly
licked, and then branded for
ever. IT'S WAR TO THE FIN
ISH.
Every courtesy should be
shown to the woman conductor.

ity we have many thousands, perhaps
hundreds Of thousands Of men and
women who have only a misty concep-
ton OF democracy and its response
bilities: only dim understanding OF
our forms of government and our con-
ditions Of living. These people are
tempting material for the BolsheviE
agitators to work upon. They are the
combustibles which make a condagra'
ton when criminals are allowed to
apply the match. 1t is difficult TO
draw the line between proper control
of iucendiary speech and burdensome
censorship. II we have made mis-
takes in the past they have been on
the side of TOO much license. We have

onstration of public sentiment which
