PROCLAMATION

While concerted efforts are being
put forth to conserve our national
resources it is gratifying to note the
increasing public interest In the vel
fare Of children. AS q result Of sur
Iveys that have been made for the pur-
pose Of determining the strength ana
effectiveness Of the various units es-
sential to the successful prosecution
OF the war many facts pertaining to
the well-being of the younger gener.
alton, and ultimately to the nation as
q whole, have been brought to light.
! "A matter of particular consequence
is the showing that fully one-third OF
the men rejected as physically unfi,
for military service were rendered so
because of ailments resulting from
preventable causes during the first
five years of life. 1t has also been
found that twenty-five per cent of the
deaths in our own state are of child
rem under five years, and that the
mortality among the children of this
age throughout the United States exs
ceetls 100000 annually. Ninety per
cent of these deaths might have been
prevented. Society needs the chill
dren and they have right to expect
Of society the protection due every
citizen, regardless of age or rank. "

hurricane Of shell is past-as symbols Of pain and
agony incarnate- but the vision is not wholly true
How could it be- when in the blessed stiffness there
bends to the age-old ministry, the shining spirit,
the healing love of every Mother whose son lies
broken there?
Not for an instant is the struggling man desert
ed by the love from which he sprung. In the hour
of crucifixion, wherein, like his Master, he dies
men might have life, and have it more abundantly,
is the encompassing love Of his Mother, giving her
spirit at the birth of his soul she gave her flesh
to the birth of his body.

LADY OVERCOMES
USE OF MORPHINE

Troubled about 10 years with what
the doctors called gall stones, often I
thought would die before the doctor
could get here, when he would give
me hypodermic OF morphine and
advise an operation. "A neighbor told
me about Mayr's Wonderful Remedy
for stomach trouble and since taking
the first dose years ago have not
had an attack nor needed a hypo-
dermic. 1t is simple, harmless
preparation that removes the catarrh-
