Everybody's going to war.

To see a lot Of good men.

And dodging submarines.
And sleeping in trenches.
To make the world safe.

With a group Of fat-heads.
Along a Broadway curb.
And a shot rang out.
And a puff of smoke.
Covered my face.
And I did a nose dive.
And a head-spin.
Right in the gutter.
And could feel the blood.
TrickIing warm.
Down the side OF my face.
And l raised up on one arm.

And said: They've got me boys"
Tell my wife"
My last thoughts.
Were of her"
And / gasped a few times.
And started to sink down.
And somebody kicked ne.
And looked up.
And it was Jerry, the cop.
And he said: Get up Stupid"
And l told him couldn't

He said: Wounded, My Foot.
So I got up and asked.
How the Germans got here.
And everybody laughed.
And I looked around.

A chauffeur was trying.
To make his flivver start.
And the thing back-fired.
And the smoke flew up.
Right in my face.
And lost chance.
To be a real hero.
But I've got a taste of war.
And the smell Of smoke.
Is in my nostrils.
i feel like charging.
Ali the stores say.

ITS NOT so BAD
 TO BE A SAILOR
By T. P. Bomar.

My salary is $SS.4O per month; my expenses: Two furnished rooms, steam heat, electric lights, gas, bath. toilet, telephone, $1600; groceries, at cost from navy, approx. $20.OO; laun- dry, navy laundry for myself and wife, $2.00; insurance, $10,OOO to wife, naval insurance, $660; car fare to and from work, $40; membership fee, navy's relief society, $1OO; barber work, navy shop, $1.00; clothes, for myself and wife, $15.OO; shows, to- bacco, stamps, etc, $8.40. Total $73.4O. Saving per month, $15O0.
 Beginning May 1st, my salary will be $106.30, which will give me sav- ing of $32.90.
 The above figures show that a man in the navy (if he is married) can save $500 or $20.00 a month after all necessary expenses are paid and can live almost as conveniently in the service as out. 1 am not publishing this with any view of advertising my self but thought it might be of some benefit to the married men who are contemplating enlisting in the service. work from 8 a. m. to D. m., off Sundays and am at home every night. As to going to sea, it will be IS months and probably not then, but after you are gone to sea your wife will receive $30.00 a month from the government. The door of opportun- lity has been opened wide to the man in the navy. Your medical attention comes free. So after all it's not so bad to be married in the service. You married men who are hanging on the stacker fence, get off, cut out your "belly-aching," get in your country's service, and get it cured. Three cheers for McAdoo; he is the rail boss now. Fly your flag, join the Red Cross, sign the food pledge card Loan your money to your government, join the service and help us out. We must win. Yours for a prosperous New Year, T. P. Bomar.

THE TEACHERS HELP

The rural public school has a great opportunity in opening the way to our rural homes. It is in closer touch with farm homes than any other institu- tion or organization. It can get the attention of mothers, fathers and children when other means fail. Why not use it as a social center through which the people may improve their farms, homes, and the social life of the community?
 The school is the logical place to begin extension work under the Smith Lever law appropriating funds for the benefit of education and general information on farming. The pupils are the people most likely to be inter- ested in better farming and from the pupils the parents may be interested The boys and girls clubs can do more to disseminate information and inspiration for better farming than the lectures of the experts and the bulletins, many of which are valuable.
 Every school in the country should De Headquarters for farmers insti- tutes, boys and girls clubs, demon- stratlons on practical agricultural sub Jects and every teacher should be a oirector of extension in trying to reach the homes of the pupils and parents.
 Gould all the teachers of the south west be induced to take an active in- 'erest in better farming, better rural Soeiety and better rural citizenship as well as better schools, the work of rural progress would be greatly hast ened' When the people see vision oi better rural life and learn how to produce home and market it better, 'hen will they provide better schools

r The carriage repair shop Of Lin
wood p. Jones with all the contents
was totally destroyed by fire at
about s o'clock Wednesday morning.
The cause of the blaze is a mys-
terry as it caught in the front erd
Of the shop where no fire was kept.
When Mr.. Jones was awakened by
the light Of the blaze shining into
his room the front part Of the slop
was all ablaZe. The back end, where
the forge was and the only place in
the shop where there was ever any
fire. was intact. The building was
only couple Of rods from the
the house and had there been a pur-
ticle of breeze the house must have
met like fate Of the shop before
anyone could have got there to save
it, as the shop was half burned be-
fore they saw it. It is impossible to
estimate the loss as it contained q
nice gasoline engine. a fine and COM
plete set Of carpenters tools. besides
all of Mr. Jones' blacksmith tools.
carriage repair tools and many
things that would cost many dollars
now when steel is. so high. 1t is not
only 4 great loss to Mr.. Jones but is
a great loss to this community as
there is no other shop Of this kind
for miles around. He also lost some
stock of hardwood and some of the
material left for repairs was also
burned.
