The people of Tanana evidently got hold of some squirrel whiskey near the end of the wet period, for the po- lice court record for that month shows an unusual number of arrests for as- sault and kindred misdemeanors. Pat Welsh drew 50 days in jail and John Deyek got a similar dose, while Fish Creek" Williams got off with half that time. All were pinched for fighting.

Omitted Press)

WASHINGTON, Jan. 19.-No one has paid much attention to what the negro "mammies" and educated black women of America are doing to help win the war, but they're doing their share just the same.
 Paralleling the work and organiza- tions of white women in the southern branches of the women's committee of the council of National defense, the colOred women are keeping even, and in some instances a jump or two ahead of the procession.
 "The colored women," said mem Der of the National defense councils womans committee today, "are valu- able members of the women's army of America.
 "They too, have their men in the war, and are anxious and we'll able to do their part. They work under their own leaders and often have their own units. Tennessee is planning to organ ize the entire state in separate units and to encourage them to train for nursing.
 "colored teachers in Maryland are giving of the time that they have usu- ally taken for much needed rest to do volunteer work and the state chair man including publicity reports that too much praise cannot be given to their devotion and patriotism.
 'In New Orleans negro woman lectures to other women cooks of the community on the value of wheat sub- stitutes, and they have classes in food conservation in the municipal kitchen.
 Florida finds the cooperation of the colored people particularly valu- able in the case of food conservation. In that state they are highly organ ized under a separate chairman of their own, who has her own organizer, and they have units all over the state. Given responsibility and a chance to cooperate they are immensely loyal and valuable to the work.
 Maryland has colored field sec retary, who has been visiting the col ored girls working at Camp Meade, and reports good conditions She has established binding relations with all the workers and is keeping a record of men up to date.
 ''1n Amelia, Maryland, the Amelia Current Opinion club composed of prominent colored women of that city, has taken up the study of food In many counties, the women are raising money to get wool for sweaters, and also to make comfort kits for men drafted from their counties.
 "A chairman has been appointed in Georgia, who is organizing the colored women of that state
 "It was a great step in Louisiana when the colored women were asked to form one unit of the food conserva- tion parade, in recognition of their able and faithful work in handling registration booths for their race"

BUY LIBERTY BONDS TO
VERY LIMIT OF RESOURCES
Everyone Should Give the Boys "over
There" the Financial Support
Needed for Victory.

An article recently published in some
papers of the central West gave an err
roneous impression as to the part the
FARMER should play In financing the
great struggle for liberty and world
freedom. 1t suggested that the farmer
should not borrow money with which
to buy Liberty bonds-that he should
not Inconvenience himself" in lending
financial support at this critical time
In the history of the nation.
This Is no time to think of incon-
venience at home. If inconvenience Is
to be the basis Of thought, let the
American farmer consider first the in.
convenience of the boys on the firing
line In France. At this particular time
1t is up to all Americans to make sac
rifices. This Is no time to think of COM
Portable financial circumstances and
freedom from inconvenience. The
government is at great deal of in
convenience If the boys at the blaz-
ing, thunderous front are standing in
muddy trenches lodging shell splinters
and Hun bullets and facing the terrible
gas attacks, there is no reason why
the farmer at home should not extend
himself to help out.
Don't think Of Inconvenience. Think
of the inconvenience and danger of
your son, or your neighbours son, at the
front, and buy Liberty bonds to the
limit. Stretch your financial system
to the breaking point, If need be, to
support your government and the boys
who are actually engaged in the bust
ness Of fighting your fight.
If you haven't the money at hand to
do your full duty toward the great
cause, go out and borrow 1t from your
bank-borrow so that you may buy
bonds until it hurts" Your financial
support may be a measure of your
practical patriotism-and the nation
needs practical patriots at this critical
period.
Don't think of nconvenience-think
only of success.

HELPLESS CHINA A LESSON
Contribute to Success Of Third
Liberty Loan.

Within the last few months the ter.
rible bubonic plague has been sweep
Ing over western China. Starting in
Mongolia, 1t crossed the great wall and,
with appalling. speed, invaded province
after province. And China-great,
helpless China-is unable to care for
its unfortunate people. Missionaries
and the Rockefeller institute have been
doing much to alleviate suffering, but
their efforts have been little enough to
stem the tide Of the dread disease.
China lacks the organization and the
initiative to do much more than bow
before the inevitable.
this time In the conditions in China"
said United States army medical Of
6cer few days ago. 1.-THE United
States Is at war. Food, guns, clothing
are needed for the soldiers, and ships
are necessary to carry them to the bat
tlefelds in Europe. To conduct this
enormous business Of war, money Is
needed-billions in money. If the ma
ton does not show initiative and or
ganization, II every individual and
every community are not closely knit
to every other individual and every
other community and interest by
common impulse, common purpose to
defeat the enemy, America will fail in
this war as surely as China has failed
in her hopeless battle against the bu-
bonic plague.
EVERY man, woman and child should
contribute to the limit toward the sue
cess of the third Liberty loan. There
must be no sectional feeling, no racial
hatreds, no ancient grudges, no po-
litical ambitions, no community inter-
ests or individual schemes to stand In
the way. If this nation Of more than
q hundred million souls stands together
as one, the government at Washington
will be provided with the money with
which to finance ourselves and our al
Hes in this war against a selfish and
autocratic power that plots our politi-
cal and commercial ruin as 1t plotted
and accomplished the ruin Of Belgium
and Serbia and northern France.
"A. prominent politician once pro-
tested against the 'Chinafying Of the
United States Let the United States
prove to itself and to the common foe
that there is nothing of China's help
lessness in us. 1t can do so by acting
with single purpose in this matter
Of q world war for democracy"

Be a Fighter and Buy Bonds.

It is time that we all realize the
country is at war. The railroads
found themselves relieved Of the man.
agement Of their properties over night.
Prices have been set for food and
steel and coal. The draft is in full
operation. 1t Is no longer a question
of patriotism in supporting the gov
eminent, 1t is an absolute necessity.
If the soldiers refuse to fight, the
war is lost. If we at home refuse to
buy bonds, the war is lost because the
government will be unable to finance
the operation. The man who refuses
to buy bonds in this great crisis is in
class with the soldier who refuses
to fight.

LIFE MEASURED
BY DEEDS NOT BY
DAYS OR YEARS
WE CAN WIN THE WAR, BUT IN
ORDER TO WIN, WE MUST
BE READY TO MAKE
SACRIFICES.
We Cannot Win Unless We Learn to
Put Patriotism Ahead of Our
Own Selfish Desires.

From the speech of Hon. G. ]. Die
kema, delivered at the Service Flag
dedication at Hope church. Holland.
Sunday evening, March II.
l have two stars upon that flag. l
said "I", for she who bore these SOL
der boys has long since passed away
to the Great Beyond. Whether they
shall return to me or go to her, God
only knows, but in this sacred hour,
and IN this holy place, where they
were baptized and confessed their
faith, with my face turned upward to
the stars In hope, dedicate them
anew to God and Country.
We derive comfort from the thought
that We have given them to a country
of which they are worthy, and which
Is worthy of them. They are worthy Of
their country, because they went so
willingly, so bravsly and so enthusiast
tically. Their country is worthy Of
them because this starry flag is the
hope of humanity and it is paradise
regained for the oppressed OF earth.
1t is a comfort to US to know that
this flag which has been given to us
by an heroic ancestry is not in the
hands of weaklings and will be hand
ed down without stain to posterity
with added lustre.
Life is not measured by days or
years, but by deeds. The Stacker
coward may continue to exist but he
does not live. He does not walk but
creeps, face downward on the earth.
The sunlight on the mountain tops OF
service, achievement and accomplish
ment are not for him. He dwells In
the dark shadows until he sinks into
IN unmarked and forgotten grave.
We can win the war. We have the
men and the money, the courage, the
wiILpower, the Inventive genius, and
The resources. We are willing to fight
FOR an ideal and to die for a great
cause, but we cannot win the war un.
less we combine capital and labor,
Drawn and brain, muscle and mind In
ono united, concentrated effort. We
cannot win the war unless we realize
that our money is not ours. That we
are simply trustees Of It for God and
country. We cannot win the war un.
less we are willing to suffer In our
stomachs In order that we may live
In our souls. We cannot win the war
unless we at home are worthy Of our
sons abroad, In patriotism, suffering
and sacrifice.
