a. t1 ~ c~,~o~y al -t go
The tears that scsld and blind.
Someone to slip q strong arm round
And whisper "Never mind"
No one has ever told just why
These words such comfort bring
Nor why that whisper makes our
cares
Depart on hurried wing, =.
Yet troubles say a quick "Goodday"
We leave them far behind j..
When some one slips an arm around
And whispers "Never mind"
But love must prompt that soft caress
The love must aye be true,
Or at that tender clinging touch
No heartsease comes to YOU.
And if the arm be moved by love,
Sweet comfort you will find,
When some one slips an arm around,
And whispers "Never mind"

SPIRIT OF THE LAIR.

"a German column was passing
along a wooded defile and a boy was

was asked in French if he had known
that the enemy was In n forest n
he did not deny it. He went with
firm steps to a telegraph post and
stood up against it, with a green
vineyard behind him, and received
the volley of the firing party with "a
nroud smile on his face. Infatuated
bow: it was a pity to see such wasted
courage."-Intercepted German SOL
dier's letter.
Written for the Boston Post by Rev.
Edward A. Horton.
Na;+ber Grant nor Lee in war days
Ever sanctioned deeds like this;
Better mans complete destruction
In oblivion's black abyss,
Than to live on earth endangered
By the spirit Of the lair,
When the beasts of prey go roaming
Spreading terror everywhere:
"Wasted courage" was it? Never
Stronger grows the patriots heart,
For the deepened love of justice
Cirds him to his noble part.
What a foe and what a master!
What deflers of the world!
| May the freeman's forces rally
| Till the enemy is hurled,
Into confines strong and pindlng
| That mankind in pease may dweii'
For It's now in tribulation
From the Anti Christ of hell.

The Council of National Defense
authorizes the following statement ::
The Council of National Defense
has heretofore emphasized the nee
essity of restricting Christmas buy
ing during the coming fall Tor GER
tain specific reasons which 1t mas
stated. These reasons are In brief
the necessity for saving labor and
material in the manufacture and
sale of Christmas gifts and OF saving
the transportation and delivery facli-
tiles necessarily involved in the large
volume of Christmas purchases.
After conference with representa-
tiyes of leading industries and retail
interests concerned, it is found that
the manufacture of goods for n
coming holiday season has been sub
stantially completed, that the rams
p~ortation of the goods to the point
of sale is also largely done and that
much of the material used for Christ
mas purchases, especially IN the
manufacture of toys, is the waste
material derived from prior pro-
cesses of manufacture.
The retail interests represented at
the conference have agreed not to
increase their working force by rea-
son of the holiday business over the
average force employed by them
throughout the year and not TO IN.
crease the normal working hours OF
their force during the Christmas sea-
son. They also agreed to use their
utmost efforts to confine Christmas
giving, except for young children, TO
useful articles and to spread the pc
riod for holiday purchases over the
months of October, November n
December. In order to relieve the
TRANSFORMATION facilities of the u
try from a congestion in the latter
half of December which would be so
hurtful to the interests of the ma
ton that it cannot be permitted, the
retail interests represented at this
hearing have agreed to cooperate
further in the campaign heretofore
and now being carried on under the
auspices of the War Industries Board
to restrict deliveries and to induce
their customers to carry their w
packages wherever possible.
The retail interests to which ref
erence has been made have further
luemsounouug ue 9NeW o. poaI5e
to the above substantial effect in
their advertisements commencing n
early September and repeating same
weekly thereafter. The above sug-
gestion if faithfully and Loyalty put
into effect, throughout the country
will make possible a continuance OF
the holiday custom without endan-
gering the national interests thereby.
The Council of National Defense
will cooperate in carrying out the
| suggested measures. 1t looks to or
| ganized business bodies of every ma
ture and throughout the country ac-
| lively to join in the movement as
providing means whereby that CO.
and the people can be had which
| operation between the government,
alone will permit the continuance OF
| holiday business in such form, or
| such scale, and by such methods as
| are consistent with the national wei
fare. This announcement is dem,
itely conditional upon loyal anf
thorough cooperation in spirit n II
| letter on the part of sellers n buy
ers throughout the country.

NEW LIBERTY LOAN
FOR EIGHT BILLIONS

Washington. - Another bond bill
authorizing eight billion dollars OF Lib
ertv bonds in addition to all hereto
fore authorized, was framed by the
house ways and means committee in
preparation for the next issue expect
ed in October and to provide for
subsequent issue when necessary.
Authorization is outstanding for s4,'
600 900, 900 in bonds, and the next Is
sue probably will be around six bill
lion dollars,
Besides authorizing $4,000 10000
more bonds for domestic purposes, the
bill, which was approved by the COM
mittee for immediate report to the
house, would authorize $4,000 100000
more for loans to the allies, increasing
the total provided for this purpose
from five to seven billion dollars.
In transmitting the tentative
draft Secretary McAdoo stated that
the advances to the allies for July,
August and September had been esti-
mated at s5OO,OOO,OOO monthly and
added:
Loans to the allies have fallen con-
siderably below that figure and the
additional appropriation could, | hope,
