Boys WORKING RESERVE
County School Superintendent Enrolling Boys, 16 to 81,
in u S. Boys Working Reserve for Farm Ser
vice Application for Boys To Be
Made By Farmers

which they a be spared back to the
farms.
There is a great reserve army of
young men now being recruited by
the U. S. Boys Working Reserve.
These young men, Is to 81 years of
age, constitute a tremendous force.
Many of these boys already have
some farm experience. They should
be given an opportunity for training
in agricultural service that they may
be available to the nation during the
next few years.
To give these boys work on the
farms now will compensate for the
loss of man-power due to enlistment
in the national service and the drain
into the war industries in cities.
Ohio farmers who can use these
older boys in farm work should fill
out the following application blank
and mail to the office of the Federal
State Director of the U. S. Boys
Working Reserve, State House, Co.
lumbus, Ohio. Upon receipt of this
application instructions will be sent
to them showing the method of plac-
ing the boys on the farm.

The following items in regard to
the Boys Working Reserve, U. S. A.
Department of Labor, are published
at the request of C. H. Mayhugh,
Federal State Director of U. S. Boys
Working Reserve of Columbus, Ohio.
In Fulton county the enrolment
is under the direction of Supt. C. D.
Perry. In this county the. larger
proportion of boys will be needed on
their own home farms and those who
are in school will be released for serv-
ice as their actual services become
necessary, each cast being considered
individually however, whether boys
work at home or away from home,
they may enlist and be enrolled in
the Boys Working Reserve.
The shortage of farm labor threat

duction of Ohio and the nation at g

nation.

FULTON COUNTY MUST
SAVE FOURTEEN BABIES

Columbus, Ohio. - Assignment of
county and city quotas of babies to
be saved in Ohio during the nation
wide child conservation campaign,
starting April 6, has been announced
by DIR. Frances M. Hollingshead, in
charge of the Child Welfare activities
of the State Department Of Health
and of the Woman's committee of the
State Defense Council.
Under this apportionment, Fulton
county must save fourteen lives of
children under five years old.
These quotas were assigned in pro-
portion to the number of deaths of
children under five which occurred in
each city and county in 1916. Each
quota represents the reduction which
the county's 1918 infant death total
is expected to show under its 1916
total. The quota amounts to 80 per
cent of the 1916 total, the total state
quota of 4,510 being 80 per cent less
than the 1916 state total .

THE WOMAN WHO UNDERSTANDS

The poem which follows appeared
anonymously in a prison paper called
"The Square Deal" published by the
Humanitarians, a newly organized
league whose aim is to aid men leav-
ing prison.
Somewhere she waits to make you win,
Your soul in her firm white hands
Somewhere the gods have made for you
The woman who understands.
AS the tide went out she found him
Lashed to a spar in despair
The wreck of his ship around him,
The wreck of his dreams in the air
Found him and loved him and gathered
The soul of him to her heart
The soul that had sailed an uncharted sea-
The soul that had thought to win and be
free
The soul of which she was part;
And there in the dusk she cried to the man
Win your battle-you can-you can"
Helping and loving and guiding
Urging when that was best
Holding her fears in hiding
Deep in her quiet breast
This is the woman who kept him
True to his standards lost,
When tossed in the storm and stress and
strife,
He thought himself through with the game
of life
And ready to pay the cost.
Watching and guarding and whispering still
"Win-you will know you will"
This is the story of ages
This is the woman's way
Wiser than seer or sages,
Lifting US day by day
Facing all things with courage,
Nothing can daunt or dim;
Treading life's path wherever it leads
Lined with flowers or choked with weeds,
But ever with him-with him.
Guardian, comrade and golden spur,
The men who win are helped by her.
Somewhere she waits, strong in belief
Your soul in her firm white hands,:
Thank well the gods when she comes to you
The woman who understands.

COMES FROM ALAsKA mo- ENLisI

New York.-Fred Hotchkiss, grand
nephew of the inventor of the Hotch-
kiss gun, a weapon that was adopted
by the United States Marines during
the Civil war, enlisted in the Marine
corps here today. Young Hotehkiss,
who has two brothers in the service,
came all the way from Alaska to en-
list.
His distinguished uncle, Benjamin
Berkely Hotchkiss, born in Water
town, Conn, in 1926, was one of the
first to adopt the principle of using
explosive gas developed by firing to
assist the operation of the rapid-fre
guns. All modern machine guns now
employ this principle.
Many of the inventors improve
ments in projectiles and heavy ord
nance were accepted by the American
government and are now in use.
Hotchkiss afterward went to Paris,
where he established a gun factory.
He died there in 1885.

Quantico, Va. = The official time
limit for adjusting gas masks is six
seconds, but United States Marines
encamped here are attempting to set
new records for speedy adjustment.
French and British instructors say
the Marines are showing wonderful
speed in the handling of the gas
masks-,an almost incredible speed
one that is likely to break records in
gas mask adjustment.
The gas mask has a series of COM
plicated straps that make it no small
trick to adjust the headgear within
six seconds time, but entire compan-
les of Marines have already beaten

SOME THINGS YOU MAY NOT DO
AND WHY

Liquor men tell US that one man
has as much right to drink a glass of
whisky as another has to drink a cup
of tea.
"But you never heard of one man
killing another while he was under
the influence of tea" says Mr.. Charles
Steele, manager of the strengthen
America" campaign.
And this fact DOES have some
thing to do with the question of what
he has a right to drink.
The fact is, there is no such thing
as an absolute individual right to DO
anything, or to EAT, or DRINK any
particular thing, if, by so doing, you
come into conflict with the rights of
OTHER people.
You may exercise your personal
liberty" only in so far as you do not
place additional burdens upon your
neighbors or upon the state.
Here are some illustrations:
You are not permitted to spend
your wages as you please if you
have a family to support-you must
first provide for your family other
wise the state would be compelled
to take care of it.
You are not permitted to keep
your back yard or your kitchen or
your cellar in a bad sanitary con-
dition, because by so doing you en-
danger the life and health of your
neighbors.
You are not permitted to smoke
in your own factory - in many
states-because by setting fire to
your own plant, you may burn
down your neighbours plant.
You n not permitted to keep
your children cut of school, be-
cause these children also belong to
the state, and it is the wish of the
state to make them good citizens,
so it has insisted upon compulsory
education.
You are not permitted to use
habit forming drugs, because, among
other reasons, if you do so, you
may make yourself a burden to the
state-you may compel your neigh
bors to support public institutions
to care for you while you live, and
probably bury you when you die
When the saloon makes life more
burdensome to all the people, and
when it creates social and economic
problems which threaten to destroy
the finest things in human life, ther
we have a right to destroy the liquor
traffic = even though it may caus
some inconvenience to a compare
lively few people who insist upon ex
D ercising their personal liberty"
3 In law and in civilization the frs
consideration is not the Individual
) but society. Therefore, whatever in
jures society is not permitted.
The greater our civilization, tn
y more restricted become our liberties
You may enjoy civic liberty, only a
you are willing to sacrifice persona
liberty.
This doesn't mean that you are &C
tually surrendering anything. EacI
of us is asked to give up some it'll
thing and put it into the "commol
fund" which makes up the sum of al
our comforts in a civilized commun
ity. But each of us draws out of tina
common fund" much more than an
G of us puts in.
Would you prefer to live in a stat
of b~arbarism, where every man doe
absolutely as he pleases, without re
d gard to the well being of his neigl
bors, OF ire you willing to make
few sacrifices, which mean a We,
; little to you, in order that you tt
may make a contribution to the eli
ilization which is bringing you
much happiness and comfort?

Constipation and Indigestion

These are twin evils. Persons suf-
fering from indigestion are often
troubled with constipation. Mrs. Rob-
ert Allison, Mattoon, ILL.,, writes that
when she first moved to Mattoon she
was a great sufferer from indigestion
and constipation. Food distressed her
and there was a feeling like a heavy
weight pressing on her stomach and
chest. She did not rest we'll at night,
and felt worn out a good part of the
time. One bottle of C~hamberlain's
Tablets corrected this trouble so that
she has since felt like a different per-
son.

eff we are to furnish the allies with
the necessary proportion OF wheat to
maintain their war bread from now
until the next harvest, and this is a
military necessity, we must reduce
our monthly consumption to 21,000,-
900 bushels a month as against our
normal consumption of about 42,000,-
900 bushels, or SO per cent of our
normal consumption.
"Reserving a margin for distribu-
ton 10 the army and for special
cases, leaves for general consump-
ton approximately one and one-half
pounds of wheat products weekly per
person. Many of our consumers are
dependent upon bakers bread. Such
bread must be durable and therefore
requires a larger proportion of wheat
products than cereal breads baked In
the household. Our army and navy
require a full allowance.
THE well-to-dO in our population
can make greater sacrifices in the
consumption of wheat products than
can the poor.
In the Household
First-Householders to use not to
