THE CRUSADERS -,
THE u. S. ARMY

Our soldiers are crusaders of the twen-
tieth century,
Defending human rights and God-giv-
en- liberty.
Our cause is just as sacred as that of
long ago,
When for Christ's sepulchre men
fought the Moslem foe.
When we gain the victory the clouds
will roll away,
The downtrodden and oppressed will
see a brighter day.
Our fag-humanity's banner-will
DER a free world wave,
The Autocrat's sway pass away, and
Democracy will be saved.
Armenia will be rescued from her bru-
tai Turkish foe,
And Poland will hold her place as a
a nation once more.
Many wrongs will be righted that have
been endured for years
In spite of protestation, resistance,
prayers and tears.
The world will wiser, better grow, re-
lieved from tyranny's thFall
With equal rights before the law, a
chance, and justice for all.
And may our brave crusaders who go
the right to defend
Win glory, honor and fame and victory
in the endl

NO MORE WHITE FLOUR
TO BE MANUFACTURED

No more white flour is to be made
in these United States of ours. At
least not until an order issued by the
federal food administration some
time ago is rescinded. Said order
prohibits millers everywhere under
the stars and stripes from making the
so-called high grade breadstuff that
has been the pastry cooks pride.
There will be but three grades of
-four manufactured by millers any
where. They will be 95 per cent,
which is the best; 100 per cent, which
is the whole wheat, and per cent,
the leavings Of the 95 per cent grade
Some women have taken fright at
the prospect of using dark grades of
flour for baking purposes and local
dealers report that some of them are
buying the present high grades in
large quantities, knowing that the
last opportunity to purchase these
brands will soon have passed until
after the war is ended.

ROAD TO SUCCESS LIES
THROUGH ADVERTISING

Bradstreet's says that "84 per cent.
of all failures are among non-adver-
tisersW
Which, considering the source of
the declaration, is pretty conclusive
proof that advertising pays.
When B,adstreet's says that only
6 per cent. of business failures are
;.nong advertisers the statement has
real s gnifcance.
No bushes firm ever became truly
great except by the aid of advertis-
ing
Like competition, advertising is the
''life of trade. Without it, in modern
days and under modern conditions,
no commercial or other business con-
Germ can achieve the success that it
can with it.
That is automatic, as every success
full business man will attest.
Outside possibly of personality and
integrity advertising is the mightiest
force, positive and potent, in present
day commerce and business.-Atlan-

DRAINING GERMAN cIsTERN

Before this war, military writers,
the Germans included, told us that
the proportion of the population in
any country that could be made into
fighting men was 10 per cent. The
population of Germany is SO millions.
AS matter of fact the mobilization
has reached nearly Is per cent, and
therefore in August, 1914, the poten-
tial fighting strength of Germany was
about ~ million men.
This was the reservoir from which
the human material would have to be
fed to the fighting lines. The 9h
million fighting men could never be
affected by the birth rate-not unless
the war should run for eighteen
years. The only supply available to
Offset the outflow was the physically
efficient young men, some 100000
who would reach the age of 10 each
year.
So there it stood at the beginning
oEthe war, a cistern full to the brim
with on million men and with po-
tential inflow of 100000.
There are two ways in which we
may get at the losses: First, the Ger
man official statements; second, the
estimates made by the allied military
intelligence departments (secret serv-
ice). And we find that these two ar
rive at the same total loss-dead and
hoplessly crippled-of about million
men, or an annual net loss of killed
and permanently crippled of N
million.-Scientifc American.

There are other things beside the
saloon that grown-up ,Kansans have
never seen. One of these things is the
trundle-bed. During the trundle-bed
period, many families had one room
which was used as living, dining and
sleeping room, and sometimes in cold
weather, when the cooking could not
be done in the board lean-to, that was
also moved in. In those days, the
trundle-bed was necessity, on &C
count Of room. 1t was called a trun-
dle-bed because it had wooden wheels
in its short legs and could thus be
rolled or trundled in and out from
under the big beds. In those times
people who did not like children
sneeringly referred to them as 'trun-
dle-bed trash. | remember when I
