then strengthens is not as bad as the
Judas who sells his country. He can
"come back"
The patriot who wcakens and then
"comes back" only comes back be-
cause there are others who do not
weaken. If we all weakened it would
be all over with US, and with patriot
ism, and with America, Freedom
would be dead; autocracy would rule.
Don't you be the one to weaken!
Don't you be the "peter-out" patriot.
Perhaps you canvassed in the last
Red Cross or Liberty Loan campaign,
and in the one before that, and the
one before that, but now you are so
tired! You'll let some other fellow
do it.
Don't do that! Buck up! You've
made good record SO far; keep it up.
Let on that you've enlisted for the;
Let on that you've enlisted for the
war; if you "peter-out" you are q
deserter.
And don't think it will not be
known. Already, here and there,
you hear people saying Of this one
and that one, ooh! he's peter-out
patriot. He was mighty wonderful
while the job was fresh and interest
ing but look at him now! He's quitw
The peter-out patriot is noticed be-
cause there are so few Of him. He
sticks up like sore thumb. He Is
the woman who was going to let her
be used whenever needed
for loyal work and who just can't
spare it now. He is the man who was
eager to write for the Vigilants until
the novelty wore off. He is the child
who gave up gum and candy to buy
Thrift Stamps, until she forgot. He
is the man who ate nationally until he
lost the novelty Of it and then began
stuffing his over extended belly main.
He is the woman who planted her
garden but stopped cultivating i
when the sun grew hot. He is the
man who shouts when the band goes
by, and never does another blessed
thing to help win the war.
The peter-out patriot is the curse
of any country. He rushes in at all
He is the man who makes
this loyal organization show huge
memembership that gradually peters
out. He is the man who boosts his
towns subscription to the> Liberty
Loan and then fails to pay his install
ments. He is the man with the mental
and moral hook-worm. His bump OF
grit is hollow. His real love for his
country is a pigs love for a trough
ful. Even pig will rush to the gate
md grunt joyfully when it's master
appears, but it has a short memory.
Instead Of being q peter-out pa
riot, be bulldog. Take hold and
hang on. Grab little more work
between growls. There win be two
phrases Of honor some day. One will
Be "He gave his life for his conn-
Try" The other viii be HE did his
evel best for his country all through
he war" There will be two great
3hrases Of disgrace. One win be" He
vas shot as deserter." The other
will be stHe petered-out!"

%
 PHILADELPHIA NATIONALS

In the opinion of a number of baseball experts, the sale of Alex ander and Killifer to the Chicago Cubs has put the Philadelphia Ma tions out of the running for the 1918 pennant Conceded to have been the mainstay of the club in it's winning of the championship in 1915 and in and 1917 Alexander and killifer have left big hole in the Phillies that cannot be filled at this time
 Besides losing this great battery the enlistment in the military ser vice of Eppa Rixey and the failure of Chief Bender to report, Manager Pat Moran has been troubled with a number of hold-outs and his team is now only rounding into shape for the opening of the championship season this week.
 Moran has combed the country for pitching talent but has thus far been unable to make up for any of the loss sustained in the sale of Alex ! andef anu hllllleT. MdytT anu OeS 1 chgar are the most reliable of the pitching staff which also includes Ben Tincup, the Indian. The catch CTS will include Burns, Adams and l Dillhoefer the latter newcomer from the Chicago Nationals.
 The Phillies' manager has picked up several good youngsters to re place Paskart. who was sent to the | Cubs, and others missing from the team this year. Luderussi will be at first as usual; McGaffigan. a youngster, will probably cover second base in the place of Bert Niehoff should the latter fail to don uni form. Bancroft will be at short and | Stock at third.
 In the outfield there will be Ora yath. Williams, Meusel and Fitzger aid. the latter heavy hitter from the Pacific Coast League.

JAPANESE MAY
 SECURE OIL FROM
 MEXICAN PEOPLE

TOXIC, May 2-The possibility of the Japancse Government securing oil in Mexico came up before the committee on the Industrial Mo- bilization of the Japanese Diet just before adjournment of that body.
 Admiral Kato, the Minister of Marine, said that the government was making investigations with re- gard to the oil fields in Mexico but that for diplomatic reasons he could not go into details. The govern ment was also considering the ad- visibility Of prospecting for oil in Formosa.
 pr. Takahashi, of tho Rouse of Peers, suggested that Japan should make endeayors to dig wells in Mexica without bothering about the views of the United States and viscount Kyosho Inopye added that so long as the United States does not scruple about extending her infiu- ence in Siberia. Japan had no req son for refraining from Activity in Mexico.
 Admiral Kato again said he could not discuss the matter
 The oil question arises from tho fact that the Japanese navy has insufficient quantities of heavy oil for use in war time and that it will be necessary to construct storage

SAYS RUSSIA
 IS VERY SICK
 PRESENT TIME
Captain Jean Seba Says That Russia Needs All the Encouragement
 She Can Get.

LONDON, May 3.-Captain Jean Seba of the Czech -Slovak army, who has just reached London from the Russian port on the Murman coast, has been engaged for several months in organizing Czech-Slovak army in Russian, composed mainly of men who were formerly in the Au stran army and became prisoners in Russia. Tn an interview with The Associated Press he said:
 "Our army in Russia is so far a small one, but the men have been formerly in the Austrian army, are we'll trained and are thoroughly ac- quainted with the organization and methods of the enemy.
 My observations in Russia dur ing the pass fsWs.sponths convince me that for the present Russia is like a sick person who needs breath ing space and rest cure. I am sure she will again come into the war. But it of prime importance that the Russian invalid should not be deserted by his friends or left to his fate.
 "With the help of.the Allies, Rus, sia can be brought back There is already plenty of evidence of a reaction. The working classes are beginning to realize that if Ger many is permitted to go on, every thing will be lost. All over the country tbere are local Soviets and other organizations which will never give in to Gefman influences.

Hart Does Thrilling
 Stunts in Marrow Trail"

Hart Does Thrilling
 Stunts in Marrow Trail"
 One would think that every thrill every act of reckless dare-deviltry, has been injected in William S. Hart photodramas. However, this famous Western character always figures in some new and startling adventures.
 For instance, in "The Narrow Trail" the initial Ince-Artcraft pie ture, which was seen at the Colise- um last night, Hart portrays an outlaw who falls under the inf1u- ence of beautiful girl. He loves her with all the desperate passion of which his Wild nature is capa- ble, and determines to reform In doing this, his source of income is naturally shutoff, and he is in try ing straits for ready cash Just at this crisis, a big Rodeo is to be held in a nearby city. A cash prize is offered for the prn- cipal event-a jump in the saddle and away" race-and the outlaw determines to enter himself and his Pinto pony. In doing so he knows he is taking a tremendous risk, as the peculiarly marked pony is known to the sheriff and his depu- ties; but goaded by necessity he takes a chance, and in the presence of a crowd leaps into the saddle.
 It is during this wild ride with it's throngs of contesting cowboys that excitement rises to its highest pitch.
