Ten Cents Per Day
Needed BY Y. M. c. A. to
Care for Yankee Soldiers

At best, the people at home can only
family reflect the supreme unselfish-
ness of our young soldiers who face
death in the trenches. Persistent sac
rifce of the American people alone
can meet the demands that are in
creasing with the growing strength of
our armies.
This fall, the Y. M. c. A. is to ask
of the American people an amount
which represents ten cents day for
the comfort of each soldier and sail
or in service. But unless Minnesota
contributes her proportionate share of
the SIP ,OOO, 100000, the amount neces-
sary to continue the organizations
vital work, at home and abroad, will
be lacking.
The Triangle of the Y. M. C. A.
symbolizes three-sided service, physi-
cal, mental and spiritual. It largely
directs the athletics of the Army, sup
plying equipment and physical direct
ors, so that men under the strain of
Army routine will be kept sound and
normal. Working out a vast educa-
tional play, the Y. M. G. A. will enable
the soldier to return to civilian life
better equipped mentally than when
he left it. While it has helped to up
hold and maintain standard of clean
living for the American soldier that
has astonished the world.
AS recognized by the leaders Of our
Nation, the Y. M. c. A. is part of the
military machine which will crush on
the fields of Europe Prussian militar-
ism which has threatened to crush the
worlds Christian-spirit. If the As
ISOLATION did not help toward winning
the war by upholding standards and
maintaining morale, the War De-
partment would not permit or encour-
age it's participation in the war.
Enormous funds, raised by bonds
and taxes, are necessary to maintain
and equip our armies, but the govern
ment has left it to the Y. M. C. A. to
give to the soldiers the "home from
home,' as the "Y" huts are called.

PICKS UP CRAZY MAN. s

Wednesday morning of last week a
bareheaded stranger about IS years
old dropped into Sank Centre seeming
ly from nowhere in particular. Chief
of Police Miller furnished him with a
hat, fed him and kept him under
surveillance during the day, and about
$50 p. m. he received wire from the
authorities of the Fergus Falls insane
hospital stating that a man of his
description had escaped and to hold
him until an officer could arrive. The
officer came down on No. A and took
his patient back with him. The poor
fellows name is Jacob Lyman and was
committed from near Moorhead. His
whereabouts was traced by his tele-
phoning to his daughter residing at
Fargo.

River Falls will be of interest to the
farmers here:
"Many farmers have noticed it but
none seem to know what it means.
It is claimed that all oat straw this
year is marked in manner never be-
fore noted and there is considerable
speculation as to what causes the
markings. These are in the form OF
a perfect letter "B" and are found on
every oat leaf in the fields. The mark
occurs about the center of the leaf
and is the same in every case. Men
who have farmed in this section for
years say they have never before
seen anything like it and are some
what mystifed concerning it's portent.
No matter what the variety of oats or
wher ethe seed came from, the letter.
ing is invariably there, they say"

DUTIES OF NEWCOMERS.

The United States as land OF OPP
portunity is well understood, but the
concomitant duty of those who seek
the opportunity, to serve and support
the United States even to the extent
of the supreme sacrifice, has not been
sufficiently taught. Yet the oppor-
tunity would not exist, except for the
sacrifices that. have been made, and
the opportunity will not be continued
unless the same willingness to sacrl-
flee exists.
At, that, it isn't sacrifice. Because
there would not be anything to lose,
neither liberty nor welfare, did not
Americans create by dint of battle the
beneficient conditions. So that serv-
ing the country, after all, is the most
enlightened selfshness. The call to
the colors is a call to preserve what
each of us most values, not call TO
sacrifice a something independently
our own for another's sake. Am
erica's fight is an Americans own
fight. The American recruit is not
called upon to give out OF his oW.
bounty. His duty to his Country Is
his duty to himself.
America as an opportunity pleases
some who were born in Europe to no
opportunity to speak of. Yet, some
of them act as if their coming to Am
erica were a piece of condescenslon.
They resent any interruption of the
pursuit of the opportunity which
brought them to America, and
to feel that their duty to the Nation
is an invasion of their natural rights
these men who had to come to Am
erica in orde rto acquire sense OF nat
ural rights. And while they are con-
tent to have real Americans go into
the fight to preserve their opportunity,
these newcomers want to be left
immune to pursue their selfish adj
vantage
America has been made the land OF
opportunity by virtue not alone OF
battle, but also of work, exposure, and
hardship of pioneers, of early settlers,
of labor, thrift, inventiveness and
foresight. Americans now enjoy the
usufruct of their fathers efforts. Yet
some newcomers want everything at
once, find fault because they are not
at once rewarded richly, grumble at
the hard conditions, think America is
somehow bound to present them with
better than the mere opportunity to
make good, feel that they have a
right to participate in property they
have not earned, imagine America is
wronging them by not presenting
them on golden platter all that Am
orleans have taken generations to &C
quire. These persons figure America
to be not merely an international
boarding house." but also an inheri-
lance upon which they have the right
to draw without payment.
America is no such thing. America
affords a chance and provides Sc
curities to those who deserve them.
But after this war America is going to
be for Americans only, for those who
realize their duties as well as adj
vantages, for those who are devoted
to American ideals as well as to AM
erican dollars. While those who feel
that America owes them something
they have not earned, who imagine
that they have bestowed favor upon
America by coming here, who hope for
much when deserving little-for such
America is going to be an unpleasant
place. Minneapolis Journal.
