Mr.. Lever has protested to Mr.. Hoo
yer that the regulations with reference
TO the grinding of wheat, recently pro-
mulgated by the food administration,
ought not to apply to the south. His
reasons are that the south, especially
states like South Carolina. have no ell
evators or other arrangements for
making a commercial commondity of
wheat on II large scale. and conditions
i'm this section are 50 different from
those in the regular wheat growing
sections. that rules that ar" perfectly
proper in one case are totally made
uuate in the other case.

step up today and buy some war
s?vings stamps. Everybody should
help today to swell the list.
1t seems to us that II those ladies
can afford to put in their time at that
booth opposite the courthouse in the
sale Of stamps. the people can do no
less than buy some Of those stamps.
The ladies' have so far sold close to
$500 worth of stamps and today they
ought to run the figures up to sl.5Oo.
But these ladies cannot sell stamps
unless the people will buy.
A number Of Yorkville ladies are
very much interested in the work that
il being pushed by Miss Elizabeth Is.
Kelly, under the direction Of the Chill
dren's Bureau at Washington, In the
interest OF child welfare. Miss Kelly
made an address here last week and
being a good speaker and thoroughly
familiar with her subject what she
had to say has appealed strongly TO all
intelligent mothers who heard her OF
who heard Of what she had to say. For
good many years past the govern
ment has been spending thousands OIL
dollars in the conservation and I'M
provemcnt of hog life. horse and
cattle life. and indeed all kinds
of domestic life having relation
to material wealth: but It is only just
now beginning to give attention to the
most important Of all-humsn life. i,
is a fact that as rule the children oi
this country do not receive as mucf
intelligent attention in infancy and
early childhood as do the colts, pigs
and calves. They IRE loved, yes, but
that does not cover the case. What
farmer Is 1t that does not keep close
watch on his young calves pigs ol
even chickens, and try to remedy such
obvious defects as will interfere with
their proper development? And no"
many people are there who give al
most no attention to the development
of their children? 1t is comrlon fol
parents, through Ignorance, to leave
defects Of nose, throat eyes, ears
lteeth, ct, that might bae easily Gle:
BILE in infancy to develop into chroni'
misery. Thousands Of children wh'
ought to live to three-score and tel
die before they are IL. OF CO. rse th'
public is not entirely to blame. In th'
absence Of systematic public effoit
properly financed, there is no way 70
the average parents to get really com
petent expert advice and assistance
in looking after their children as the!
should be looked after. While sucl
parents may realize that an ounce o
prevention Is worth pound Of cur"
they have no way Of knowing how Il
20 about prevention, and as rule d.
not being their efforts TO cure de-
feet until that defect has abou
done all the harm it can do. Mis-
Kelly discussed all these things in {
most interesting and eloquent manner
giving numerous facts and statistic!
that has put those who heard her Il
thinking as they have never though
before. The immediate object Of TIE
campaign Is the organization In eacf
community OF board Of experts t.
carefully examine, weigh and register
all children under years Of age ant
advise parents Of defects and tenden
cies that will need remedial attention

The uppcrmost problem with Allied
statesmen now is the solution OF the
mtcr-allicd political leadership rs the
intcr-allicd military leadership has
been solved. The Allies did not make
much headway against Germany SO
long as the separate armies OF each
country were under independent COM
mand. There was no unity Of effort
and with Germany in a position 10

all easy prey. II was President Will

all Allied armies under one command
and who led the way by rendering
the American troops to the leader

lot of opposition in England, but the
idea won for there was nothing else
TO do. Now it is n question OF one
political leadership. a leadership that
can blaze the way and take binding
action. This leadership lies between
Lloyd George and Woodrow Wilson.
Lloyd George has the brains and the
ability but England cannot command
the fullest confidence Of France and
