CHARLES II. REED
Publisher

Within the past week The Messenger
editor has learned of some things that
make him feel somewhat ashamed and
at the same time very greatly pleased.
He is ashamed to think he ever believed
there were wealthy people in this vicin-
ity who were blind to their duty to
their country at this time when she is
continuing fight for human freedom
which has been the one holy cause of
all her wars during all her glorious
history We know better now. Some
of the men we have had in mind have
shown that they are true blue, mag
nificent sons of "old glory" the equal
of anybody and everybody in the kind
of loyalty that counts. And so, we
frankly admit that sometimes our feel
ings get the better of our discretion,
and beg to congratulate every man who
has done his duty as his deeper con-
science has prompted. We are proud
of them and glad to have the inspiration
of their splendid citizenship.

Vienna Township has made a proud
record in the Third Liberty Loan. She
has gone away lover the top" with
$40. 600 to spare. This is loyalty of the
right kind, and it is more. 1t is sig
nificant of that community spirit, that
mutual helpfulness and accord that
spells community accomplishment. We
are learning to get together and boost
during these trying times. We are
learning that we can accomplish great
things by working together and when
the war is over we are going to apply
this spirit to the accomplishment of
purposes that will be measureless in the
benefits that will accrue from them.
We shall have better schools, conse-
quently greater efficiency, which means
greater production in every line of in
dustry, better roads, more wealth and
such an active form of cooperation as
shall distribute profits more widely and
more equitably than in the past. And
then, the stirring of our patrio tic SEN
timent is going to give us a broader and
nobler incentive to work than the mere
selfish gathering of wealth for ourselves
alone. We are going to see the fact
and act upon it that in achieving pro-
gress for the nation. justice and fair
chance for all, we are pursuing the
surest road to individual happiness. 1t
has been our observation that truth al
ways prevails in the long run and that
the right always triumphs. Sometimes
the way is long and dark, but it always
leads TO victory. AS the golden grain
springs from the seed. just so surely
justice, freedom, mercy and industry,
the finer attributes of society, spring
from truth-God's seed implanted in
the soul. Both come forth in re-
Spouse to natural law. They are ir-
repressible. And so. when this war is
over, Notwithstanding its cruelty and
wanton and unneces-
sary as these may seem, truth and
righteousness will reappear, clad in
shining garments, armed with the in
vincible sword of reason, to confer new
and manifold blessings upon mankind.

Farmer, the Spoilt Child.

However. much other trades may
have been controlled. the farmer seems
always to have been the Spoilt child
of the state in the matter of prices,
says London Tit Bits. So far from
limiting his prices. our great-grandfa-
theirs seem to have considered it was
in the national interest that the price
of corn should be as high as possible,
and il was at one time the law that
no foreign wheat might be imported
ut all unless the price of the home
grown article had reached so shillings
