EATING MONEY

Did you ever stop TO think Of sit
ting down to n table of which there
was nothing to cat but money? No
Of course the suggestion is foolish.
We can eat what money will buy,
but as an article of diet nothing
could be more unsatisfactory than
money itself. Ten, or even hundred,
dollar bills might be masticated per-
haps, but like hunger, would not be
satisfied, and starvation would fol-
low. Money is valuable rs an article
of diet, only when converted into
bread and meat. Here is the appli-
cation: Mr.. Wilson has or can get
nil the money he needs to feed and
clothe the soldiers, but he cant feed
and clothe them on money alone. If
there is nothing to buy money is use
less and only an aggravation. Men
and women have starved to death on
desert islands and ships adrift, with
money in their pockets. Hence the
great effort made by Mr.. Hoover
to save something to eat, and the
great effort iaade to induce the farm
ers to grow something to sell. 1t is
necessary to buy Thrift Stamps, Lib
erty Bonds, pay war taxes, and all, TO
raise money, but more pressing still
is the necessity to grow something to
exchange for the money.
Money is Indispensable, we think,
but not so much so rs bread and
meat. And so, in the last analysis,
the responsibility falls upon the til
lers of the soil. All this is patent.
and may sound bromide and common
place, but nevertheless, there are peo-
pie in this town and county and ey-
erywhere who are making little or no
effort to do their part or any part, in
the great struggle for world civili-
cation.
This war is to be won in the kitch-
ems, on the farms and in the grana-
ries of America. Get this! Don't for
get it for moment!

PRESIDENT WILSON SENDS A
MESSAGES TO RUSSIANS.

Washington, March lion the eve
of the gathering ut Moscow of the
Russian Congress of Sovicts, which
is to pass judgment on the German
peace accepted by the Bolsheviki at
Brest-Litovsk, President Wilson has
sent Il message of sympathy to the
Russian people through the congress
with a pledge that the United States
will avail itself of every opportunity
to aid them in driving out autocracy
and restoring Russia TO her place in
the world with complete sovereignty
and independence.
The United States now recognizes
no government in Russia, but the
president cablcd his message to the
consul at Moscow for delivery tomor-
row to the congress, which is made
up of soldiers and workmen's repre-
sentatives and speaks for Il consider
able part of the Russian people The
message, made public tonight by the
State Department was as follows:
MAY | not take advantage of the
meeting of the congress of the Soviet
to express the sincere sympathy the
people of the United States feel for
the Russian people mt this moment,
when the German power has been
thrust in to interrupt and turn back
the whole struggle for freedom and
substitute the wishes of Germany for
the purpose of the people of Russia.
Although the government of the
United States is, unhappily, not now
in position TO render the direct and
effective aid it would wish TO render,
l beg to assure the people of Russia,
the congress, that il will
avail itself of every opportunity TO
secure for Russia once more complete
sovereignty and independence in her
own affairs and full restoration TO
her great role in the life of Europe
and the modern world. The whole

WHY HE FAILED.

The late Joseph II. Choate was
ranked rs leading lawyer of excep-
tion abilities and opportunity. 1t is
generally agreed and wondered at
that he did not rise to distinction
and fill the sphere of usefulness to
which his natural and remarkable
abilities entitled him. Perhaps he
was not ambitious for 80 place in the
sum-" was satisfied to live quiet life
within a limited and circumscribed
circle of activity. during his long life
of 81 years.

ed "a well stocked wine cellar" says

NEW YORK BACKING THE PRES.

Congressional elections held in New
York recently, in four districts indi-
cate beyond question, that for the
period of the war mt least, the city
Will stand behind President Wilson.
In each of the four districts, one of
which was counted rs Republican, the
Democratic candidate was elected.
However, it would perhaps be erro.
neous to conclude that the city has
become more Democratic than here
tofore. Only that this is not the time
to make changes in Mr.. Wilson's sup
porters. In one of the districts, the
list, there was woman candidate. n
Mrs. Calvin. Naturally, it was thought
the women voters of New York, cast
ing their first vote, would support the
woman candidate. She was defeated.
although running on the Prohibition
ticket. The one dominant idea seems
to have been to line up behind the
President, and they did. There was
no complaint of the loyalty of the
Republican candidates, but, as one of
the voters put it, we believe that
MIR. Bolles, (Republican) will support
the President on roll call, but Mr..
Donovan Democracy will support
him as soon as the bill is introduced.
Against such sentiment as this
campaign oratory is futile.

Not only politically, but in every

and religiously, the United States will
be shorn of its power and privileges,
and become a yasal of an unscrupu-
