CONSERVATION AND ECONOMY.

~A@f0 A@&O4tV1 Z
We hear conservation and economy
linked together so much these DAYS
that some of us do not realize that
these two terms are not synonymous.
As a matter of fact, each word has a
distinct meaning and each policy a
separate place in the war plan. Some
times they work in harmony and some
times they do not. But let us consider
each one separately.
Economy, briefly is saving money.
1t means eliminating waste of any
commodity, developing resources to the
fullest extent and giving up unnecessa-
tials. In economizing each individual
must decide what things are absolute
ly necessary to his well-being. Of
course the objects sacrificed will be
very different; one person win econo-
mize on his wardrobe, another on his
housekeeing expenses and a third on
his amusements. And yet all these will
work together in harmony for the ma
tional good. Labor will be released to
carry on government enterprises and
money will be saved for investment in
thrift stamps and Liberty bonds. To
economize then keep your eye upon
your pocket-book and let your person
al tastes dictate the means of cutting
down your expenses.
In conservation, on the other hand.
individual taste cannot play a part.
There are certain commodities abso-
lutely necessary for our armies and
for those of our allies. While the de-
mand for these articles is greater than
ever, the worlds supply, for reasons
that will be sufficiently obvious to any
who considers the question, is much
smaller than usual If we, who casi
substitute other articles for those in
question, neglect to do so, and limit
still further the inadequate supply. the
government. with plenty of money
would, nevertheless be unable to pro-
cure them, our brave soldiers would
suffer needless hardships, and the re-
suit might be the loss of the war.
Government experts with their fingers
IN the pulse of the worlds business
announce the commodities which we
must deny ourselves as far as is hu-
manly possible. This list varies of
course from time to time, but it con-
lists in general of wheat, sugar, fats,
neat, fuel and wool. We must keep
'ur eyes on the list of such articles as
published in the papers. We must sac
1fice even economy if we find the sub
titute more expensive than the article
o be saved, and we must at any cost
+ personal comfort or money conserve
What the government asks us to con-
erve for our soldiers who are giving
p everything for us.

AN OLD TRUTH REVIVED.

Every day now the line is being
more sharply drawn between the real.
self-sacrifcing patriot, and the profit
eer, hiding behind a cloak of blatant
loyalty
Nineteen hundred years ago the Man
of Gallilee quietly remarked to COM
pany of friends and followers that at
is more blessed to give than to re-
ceive." At that time it made little
impression upon his hearers, and in
the countless centuries since that day
men have grasped it merely as a the
oretical truth, with no real thought of
making it life principle.
But the present world cataclysm has
put people to thinking seriously of
this statement of th- great Teacher.
People with no claim to religious con-
victions are waking up to the fact that
underlying the statement is found the
true secret of life. We are coming to
see more clearly every day that the
selfish life is the miserable life, stunt
ing and dwarfng all the finer qualities
Of our nature that have elevated us
rs race so immeasurably above the
human brutes with whom we do battle.
When the final history of this war
written, those whose names will 20

A part Of the Shields propaganda in
some of the counties of the state is,
Follow the democratic custom and
endorse Shields, that is, re-elect him."
This plea is meant to catch the unwary
and those with short memories. It has
not been, since the days of Bate and
Harris, the"custom" for the legisla-
ture of Tennessee to re-elect United
States senators a successive term,
Carmack, Frazier and Lea were
all defeated for the second term, and
Bob Taylor died during his first term.
We doubt if the Shields tahlman ca
bal can persuade the voters that it is
proper to "endorse" a candidate who
was first elected according to his
chief organs statement, by dragging
the judicial ermine in the mire," nor
one who, according to the Memphis
News Scimitar betrayed and deserted
his party for place and power and form
ed alliances through unreckoning and
remorseless experience"

THE PART THAT CIVILIANS
PLAY IN THE WAR.

Separated by 5000 miles of ocean
and protected by our navy, our civil
ian population can, during this war
continue to live in the same security
as in peace times. The Hun invaders
are not in our midst. We are spared
the agony that came to the women and
children and old men of Belgium and
France and Serbia and the other over
run countries. While thus secure from
harm, we must not forget that the civ
ilian population of these desolated
countries are as much our allies as are
the fighting men. Let US realize more
deeply their tragedies.
Read this testimony of Brand Whit
lock, who as our minister to Belgium
knows what it means for land to be
occupied by German troops.
"Tamines is little mining town ON
the Sambre. The little church stands
on the village green overlooking the
river, its facade all splotched where
the bullets and grapeshot spattered
against it. And in the little graveyard
beside the church there are hundreds
of new-made graves, long rows of
them, each with its small wooden cross
and its bit of flowers. The crosses
stand in serried rows, so closely that
they make very thicket, with scarce
ly room to walk between them. They

except for the names and ages-thir-

same sinister date-August %, 1914.

burn the houses, GIG of them; then
they turned all the inhabitants into
the streets, promiscuously marching
them about. 1t went on for long hours
they were given no food or drink.

During halt they forced them to lie
beneath the machine guns, then they
lined them up against the church wall
and performed a mock execution.

or viii it glory in the opportunity to

vidual must decide that question. He
