MADE FOR LOYALTY
Good Effect of Citizens Battle

Gave Stacker an Opportunity to See Himself as, Others See Him
 Also Helped Realization of ... What War Means.

3By GEORGE E. BOWEN, of the vlgn-' l antes.)
 It took lot of backache and bhS- ters and frostbfte to clear this snow bound western world of drifted ob- struction, making 1t safe for travel, secure for the daily affairs of life.
 Those two great January storms created desperate Esituatlon-oae that had to be met andSovercome. Everybody suddenly had the same idea-a strong, shovel, willing heart ,andsa cheerful disposition.
 There was nothing else to do. We had to. be free.
 And we we're.
 F Every patriot In the middle west who had shovel and backbone goG out and, used thefn. ~' '" n Lot lines didn't count, for we were fighting a common enemy. The shoveling spirit thrilled us, eli masse-nO one stopped to be saluted. or introduced-no one stopped to. theOrlze-nO one claimed exemption or superiority. We just asserted our right of way-and dug It..
 So, here Is freedOm-to go or come.
 It was argreat lesson in united ac- tlon, a convincing example of the soli- darlty of human interest, reassurlng experience in loyalty to the cause of common welfare It was an American. demonstration. ...,'!. .'.
 The stacker was thoroughly un- slacked when he saw his neighbor Shoveling off his walk.
 It was worthwhile storm.
 Men met each other lin these neigh borhOOd trenches with. new express sion in their eyes-a new feeling in their hearts.
 Over the whlte-blocked barricades of snow, head high and miles in length, they were seeing those reddened, sand bagged walls In Belgium. Seeing loyal bayOnets shoveling humanlty's way to freedom through stOrm-crushed Flan- ders. Seeing braver. patriots than themselves struggling manfully against Alpine avalanches of steel and bliz- zards of fire, that the home-paths of mankind be not obstructed forever by any brutal drifts of hate or selashneSs.
 The. roar of the Arctic terror these neIghbors knew when the storm broke upon their unpreparedness was as nothing to the scream of shells and the thunder of artillery they are hearing now in those trenches across the sea and in their souls.
 - They have realized in a small, blood less way the meaning of war-war that is perpetual offensive storm, instead of an occasional one in January.
 When men meet In these snow trenches of the West, there's only one comment: 'We've got to help them win"
 And they mean it--as they meant every shovelfut of snow they threw out of their paths of peace and content ment.
 Some great blessings come thickly disguised.
