TO MAKE KAISER TAKE
MEDICINE LYING DOWN

SAN FRANCISCO, July 4-'Ig you
stand up to your job, we'll make
the kaiser take his medicine lying
down"
That was the message delivered
TO the shipworkers here today by
Charles NJ. Schwab, director general
of the Emergency Fleet corporation,
in the first public speech he has
delivered since taking charge Of the
shibuilding program.
Mr.. Schwab was speaking at the
Independence Day launching OF
merchant ships here which was
part of the national program in
which probably n hundred ships
and possibly more-were being sent
from the ways TO the seas from
yards all over the country,
'I venture to predict the num-
ber of ships launched today is the
greatest ncord Of launching for a
single day In the history Of the
world" said Mr.. Schwab.
when the truth percolates to the
German people they will know that
their leaders have deceived them;
THAI Americans have their sleeves
rolled II and we have our fighting
blood up; that we are going TO win
this war if 1t takes the last man,
the last ounce OF strength, the last
resource and the last dollar that
this country possesses"

The Petty Plans

A neirhbor's house was burning down
the fury was intense;
Tho flames were splitting toward the SKY
the clouds Of smoke were dense
And many ran to share tho fight, but one
looked down the street,
And said: my Bupper's ready, now, and
III stay there and eat.
Tho world Is now ablsze with hste, the
skies with fire are red;
Tho fields OF France today are strewn
with young and manly dead;
And vet i heard man complain that he
was asked 70 eat
His share of sacrifieial bread 10 give the
warriors wheat.
And 7 have heard n man denur,
When called upon 70 aid,
That Il would interfere with some pet
pleasnre-pan he d made
Have heard one say, in time like this
with all the world at grip,
That he would not deny himself a simple
fishing trip
oh, petty men, forget yourselves This Is
life's biggest age.
Tho greatest drama of all times is now
upon the stagel
Big deeds are claiming big men here with
victory at stake; ..
Big thoughts must occupy mons minds and
petty plans must break.

dent Wilson offered Americas dec
laration of independence to the peo-
pie of the world with a pledge that
the United States and its allies will
not sheathe the sword In the war
against the central powers until there
Is settled, "once for ALL" for the
world what was settled for America
in 1875.
Foreign born citizens Of the United
States, 33 nationalities, who had
placed wreaths Of palms on the
tomb in token Of fealty to the prin-
ciples laid down by the father Of
his country. cried their approval Of
his words in many languages and
then stood with reverently barred
heads while the voice OF John Nc
Cormack scared over the hallowed
grounds in the notes of the Star
Spangled Banner" p
Washington and his associates,
like the barons at Runnymeade,
spoke and acted. n6t for class, but
for people," the president said.
''It has been left for us to see to 1t
that it shall be understood that they
spoke and acted, not for single
people only but for all mankind.
We here in America, believe our par
ticipation in this present war to be
only the fruitage of what they
planted.
There can be but one issue. The
settlement must be final. There can
pc no compromise.

sized the least America will consider

ed by tumuit of applause and
words of approval in many tongues
The demonstration swept beyond the
wall of khaki clad marines to the
thousands of Americans scattered
over the hills and through the woods
surrounding Washington's home.
Unreservedly, the president de-
clared that there could be no thought
of peace which did not mean the
destruction OF military autocracy or
its reduction to virtual impotence.
"A reign OF law based on the con-
sent of the governed and sustained
by the organized opinion of man.

in single sentence the objects OF

REV. BARTON'S WIFE
DEAD IN KANSAS CITY
Following Operation, End Came Sud-
denly; News Almost Beyond Be-
lief; Funeral in Tulsa.

Maude Barton, wife of the Rev
Louis s. Barton. pastor of the Boston
Avenue Methodist church, died last
night in the Christian church hospi-
tai Of Kansas City. Only meager de-
tails were received by friends in
Tulsa last night, but 1t is known that
Mrs. Barton died following an opera
ton.
Dr. Barton was at his wife's death
bed, having accompanied her to
Kansas City Tuesday evening. 1t is
presumed that Mrs. Barton immedi-
ately entered the hospital in prepa-
ration for the operation.
The shock caused among friends
mere amounted to almost disbelief,
Mrs. Barton had been in good health
since she had been in Tulsa, accord
ing to those who have been intimate,
iy associated with her. She had con-
tinued her many activities UP until
the time of her departure. She was
an active worker in the war savings
campaign in the city last week, be-
ing engaged In actual canvassing.
Body Here Saturday.
Funeral services will be held in
Tulsa. The body will arrive in Tulsa
Saturday and funeral services will
be conducted from the Boston Ave-
nue. Methodist church at 2 O'Clock
saturday afternoon. Bishop Mou-
zon or Dallas, Texas, Is expected TO
be present to preach the funeral SER
mon. The Rev. j. NJ. Peterson of
the Boston Avenue Methodist church
VIII have charge of the services. Fol-
lowing the rites here, the body will
b taken to Mrs. Barton's old home in
Greenville, Texas, for interment.
Mrs. Barton formerly was Miss
Maude Spaulding OF Greenyille,
Texas. She was educated ine the
ago with DIR. Bauton when he as
sumed responsibility OF the Boston
south. and came to Tulsa four years
Avenue church.
Few women Of the city had been
more active than Mrs. Barton. ac-
cording to her friends. Always anx-
ious to further the work to which
her husband was devoted, she threw
nerseil INTO auxiliary activities Of the
church with particular zest. One Of
the features Of the church's program
has been Mrs, Barton's Bible class,
composed largely of young married
women. Since the coming OF war she
had transferred some of her energy
to patriotic endeavor. Regular at
tendance at the Red Cross and par
ttcipation in special efforts such as
the war savings campaign last week
commanded much of her time.
Mrs. Barton has a sister In Dallas.
Texas, and a nephew who Is with the
American expedltionary forces In
France.
