be thankful beyond words for the
bread you despise.
We are living like kings-yet. in
spite of our little restrictions on
bread and sugar and meat. We have
not learned the meaning of sacrifice.
C,n't we wake up before the boys
have to lose their lives to teach us?
For PHYS sake let's cut out this
talk about what we like" or don't
like. and let's get down to brass tacks
and help push this thing through to
a finish. Eat back cad Z that's
what we get. Go without sugar IL
there isn't plenty. Drink milk. and
eat vegetables and forget cake and
cookies and doughnuts.
The kind of patriotism that sheds
copious tears before a war play and
at Red Cross speech, and then goes
home to full meal and hollers be-
cause the bread is black, as patriot
ism is not worth the powder to blow
it to thunder.
There are not many such poor ex-
cuses Of American citizenship in any
one community to be sure, but there
are enough so that We must make an
effort to shame them out of their
selfishness and sloth, and there are
enough, also so that the majority who
are willing to sacrifice to the last
cent and the last crust, must work
enough harder to cover up the def
ciencies of q few slackers.
Look well to see where you stand.
and then begin to round up the weak
lings and make them get busy-or
get out-at least out of the respect
of a community.

ATTACK LINDEN BOY
Mountain Lion "As Big As Cow
Stalks Lad On klynstra Ranch
North OF City

The thrilling pioneer days with
their dangers of attack by wild an
imals are not yet over in the Lynden
district. An attack by giant cougar
right in August, 1918, startled thor
oughly one neighborEood north OF
Lynden Saturday night. and farmers
out that way have their guns oiled
up and ready for action.
The youngest son of Mr.. and Mrs.
II. Klynstra was at the outskirts OF
the Klynstra farm, on the Lynden-
Blaine road Saturday night towards
dusk, when his brothers close by not
iced a strange animal a few feet
away stalking the little follow. They
called to Mrs. Klyns.ra, and on her
approach. the cougar was frightened
off.
"It was as big as cow" the Klyn-
stra boys declare.
1t is thought that this is the same
cougar that was seen in the Weld
kamp neighborhood some time ago.

upon the attention Of retailers, who in
their turn are being enabled by other
advertising matter to attract their Gus
toners to the goods.
The dried eggs which they advertise
are entirely soluble and take up the
water like a lump of sugar and thus
give the perfect creamy liquid of a
beaten shell egg ready for instant use
