CLEVER POEM BY
LITTLE GIRL OF FOURTEEN

Little Johnnie Orlean Manney, Ia
years of age, has written the poem
given below. She is the bright little
daughter of DR.. j. +. Manney of Lask-
er, Street. The poem follows
Nowadays
Nowadays we have soldiers;
Nowadays we have war;
Nowadays we have earlier time.
| wonder what for?
Nowadays we are conserving food;
Nowadays we knit and knit;
Nowadays we are saving our money
For we are called on to do our bit.
Yes, children, we must study hard
To be ready for high school;
Get your studies ready for class
And do not have to be urged with II
rule
Do not buy worthless things now;
Do not bother with "what to wear
For you will soon find that you know
how
To find goodness in what was despair.
Now when war is still going on,
we must save our wheat;
Oh, can't you eat cornpone for fun
And other good things to eat?
Buy Liberty Bonds and Thrift Stamps;
What is your money for?
Buy them if you want liberty and peace
And help us to win the war.
Do not buy so many worthless clothes
Or beautiful diamond rings;
Please wait until war is past
To do such useless things.

CASUALTIES AT HOME.

H. j. Davis, central chairman of the Gadsden
County Prohibition Committee, has made the
following strong appeal to the voters Of the
state.

of Europe as they occur on the greatest battle
front the world ever saw, facing the most awful
death-dealing war implements devised by the
ingenuity of man. With these the battle line
is being swept by shot and she'll electrical and

man, in unceasng action along the great
battle front. When the daily casualty reports are
read here and there all great country

exterminated the boys of country are
being brought home, and laid away in their last
resting places. All over our fair land this scene
is being enacted over and over again. while thou
ands are laid to rest beneath the soil of fair
France.

ing power of alcohol we would stand aghast, no,

WILL DO IT.
If boys were home they would fight al
most to to destroy our common enemy.
Can you in the face of recent events vote against
your interest and happiness, against your boy
now fighting to free the world of the enemies of
all mankind; against the happiness and welfare
of your home and family? We can't believe that

question in the past, in the light of the action
of the congress of our own land the war meas

question as to the proper course of every free
and thoughtful American citizen.
We call upon the citizens of every voting pre-
cinct to organize by electing a chairman and
three or four committeeman whose duty will be
from now until the day of election to impress
upon every voter the Importance of voting for
the amendment that will forever make Florida
dry. Some unthinking man might fail to vote
at all and others unthoughtedly might vote
against the measure, although it might appear
to US an impossibility.

many for over two decades imposed upon the
world the most colossal fake in history. BY a
deliberate scientific propaganda, in which she was
aided and abetted by certain paid or unpaid

BUSINESS is SOUND.

AS for the industrials, those benefting by
peace have already shown marked recovery
which has not yet etirely discounted the future,
says Henry Clews. After President Wilson's re-
ply to Germany the war industrials recovered a
portion of previous losses The copper, oil, steel
and kindred issues will naturally benefit by peace.
Concerns that depended upon war cannot be ex-
pected to share these benefits, and their chief
owners doubtless discounting such contin-
gencies In event of decided recessions, purchases
in the directions suggested can doubtless be made
to advantage; but discrimination is necessary
and the money market must be strictly regarded.
few shares have made such sensational adj
vances that operations therein are particularly
hazardous. There are, however, plenty of good
shares and bonds which thus far have had little
attention.
General business is sound, and so is credit, de-
spite the strain imposed upon the banks by
financing the war. The steel trade is intensely
active, requirements showing no abatement.
Domestic and export wants are accommodating and
will keep mills busy when munitions fail. Textile
industries are in much the same state of activity
and practically all concerns are earning good
prOnCS VI course LABOR IS Well employed at high
wages, which keeps certain lnes of retail trade
active, although others are known to be feeling
the effects of high prices and economy.
Government regulation and price fixing are
matters of special Importance affecting the in
dustrials, and the management of these concerns
is subject to much uncertainty. Government poll
cies in these directions are likely to continue for
some time after peace arrives; because the eco
nomic balance cannot be immediately restored
as long as supplies of commodities and labor are
so deranged. 1t may be several years before con-
ditions restored to normal; hence the present
control of business by the government will prob
ably cease gradually. We are already in new
era, and plans for the rehabilitation are being
rapidly made. What the future will bring forth
cannot be forseen at this time, though undoubt-
eddy considerable measure of government regu-
lation of trade will be retained.

more for the laboring classes than any other
country; that she led the world in industrial
efficiency, scientific inventions. medical discov-
cries. and in music, literature, and art. Mr..
Easley's statement is based upon an investiga-
ton of Germany's claims to supremacy in social
progress by Gustavus Myers, the research ex-
pert and historian, an analysis of Hun claims to
leadership in scientific invention by Bennett
Chappen and in chemistry by Townes r. Leigh,
and on a study of Teuton claims to pre-eminence
in music by John C. Freund, editor of Musical
America. and in literature and art by T. Everett
HARE, the novelist.
Instead of having done more for the uplift of
the working class than any other nation, as she
has claimed, Mr.. Easley proves that German
workers labored for longer hours and for shorter
pay than those of any othe country; that the
much-vaunted German social insurance schemes
Melted the benefciaries less than one dollar each
week. and that the farm loan schemes benefited
chiefly the Junker landlords that in Germany
poverty abounded and the appalling rate of in
FAINT mortality and child suicides was equalled
only in the Austro-Hungarian Empire and Rus
sia Germany is shown to have been far be-
arts, and her much-extolled prosperity Mr. Eas-
ley declares, has been based on the robbery of
the inventions and discoveries of other nations.
while Germany was preparing armies and
manufacturing for her intended on
slaught for world dominion she was engaged
at the time in peaceful offensive de-
signed to win from America an overwhelming
and subservient admiration and esteem which
should disarm indignation and render us in
ert when the time for her first blow came" says
Mr.. Easey. ITO camoufiage her baleful prep
ing those years presented herself as a nation,
which by industry, thrift and the practice of
homely virtues, had not only become prosper
Gus in peaceful industry but had evolved social

NEW JEWISH COMMUNITY IN
Japan.

Owing to conditions growing out
Of the war Japan has for the first
time considerable Jewish settle
ments. The Jews of Russia, en-
deavoring to flee from their stricken
homes, found the usual western
route across Europe closed to them,
and consequently many thousands of
them crossed the whole continent to
Asia and came to Japan, where they
expected to obtain passage to the
United States. The Jewish I'm
migrant Aid Society of America has
brought many of them to America,
and large number are now de-
tanned in New York awaiting word
from their American relatives. Hun
dreds of Russian Jews are still in
Japan. In Yokohama quite large
Jewish community has been formed,
attached to which is an Emigrant
Aid Society," In Kobe a synagog
has been built and the community
has about seventy members, who
have also founded a literary and
Zionist society.
