The Boys Are All Away

How shall we wreathe the holly?
How hang the mistletoe?
How shall we keep the Christmas feast
With the joy we used to know,
When on the happy Christmas Day
The boys are all away?
The holly pricked their fingers
And brought wee drops of red,
When caught beneath the mistletoe
The laughing lassies fed.
No romping games this year Well play
The boys are all away.
But we will never shame the lads
With hearts SO bold and true.
Wen never mix our Christmas greens
With sombre boughs of yew;
With courage high we'll learn to say:
THE boys are all away"
Well keep the heart and make the home
AS bright as bright can be
And sing tie carols old and sweet
OF Christ nativity,
Like Mary smile. the while we pray
For all the boys away.

DO NOT HOLD WHEAT
AFTER SEEDING Time

At melting of the Hotel Keepers
association of the United States in
Washington, D. G.. recently, Herbert
Hoover, United States Food Admins
TRAITOR, urgently asked for conser-
Walton Of wheat flour as necessary to
the success of the war. The message
was concrete. He said:
1.-The service that we ask of you,
that we ask of every well-to-do, every
independent person in the United
States today is, that he shall abstain
from the use of wheat in any form
until the next harvest. Every mes
sage that we receive every hour of the
great country-shows us that we shall
have a larger acreage planted in wheat
this year than ever before. This ar
rival of the next harvest will solve
our difficulties. If the Lord is good to
us in the weather, our problem will
be over by the first of September That
is not long period of sacrifice.
Now, most of us call play bat small
part in the winning of this war and
you and l do not wish to look into
the eyes Of our children ten years
hence and say that we failed in our
duty. This is a sacrifice that is small
in figure, but l can assure you there is
no message that l can send the Food
Controllers of Europe today that will
carry such weight and such encour-
agement to their people as to be able
to say that every first class hotel in
the United States has, for their sake
abolished the use of wheat
AS patriotic duty the government
asks the farmers, therefore, to place
all wheat upon the market Immediate
ly after you finished seeding. Do not
hold your wheat and think of self
fiji st, but think of the boys over there
Let us do our part to feed them first
and if there is any left we will no
doubt get our share. This our gov
eminent is asking of us and l hope
that every loyal American will see to
it that this is carried out to the letter.

Is there anywhere more detestable
creature than the rat? Always a
sneak-thief, robbing farmers of the
full profit of their labor and of the
poor of their bread, it is now an ally
of the kaiser. Rats are in league with
their human brothers who have been
guilty Of burning granaries and store
houses for the purpose of embarrassing
the government in the prosecution of
our present righteous war.
Of course, the rat plumbers to live,
but the world is not large enough to
support both rats and mankind as the
latter are entitled to be supported.
Therefore, the rat must go. Its death
sentence was pronounced when its
agency in spreading the plague was
proved beyond the shadow of doubt.
The great epidemic of plague In the
Middle Ages destroyed the lives Of one
fourth of all the people of Europe.
Rat; did that! Mankind owes nothing
to rats which has not been paid for a
thousandfold. Now the United States
government is after them for destroy
ing 100000 worth of grain each
year.
Some states still pay bounties for
the killing of wolves and foxes Rats
are capable of more harm and are al
together much more destructive than
wolves. The difference is that the
wolf is bold robber while the rat is
a sneak both in it's killings and thiev-
cry.
1t would not be strange if an epidem-
ic OF plague should follow the closing
of the present war. Rats have -four
ed in the war zone where they are
bold enough to fight the soldiers If a
few of them should be infested with
plague, the disease might spread rap
idly to the rest and then to the SOL
diers. 1t takes no great stretch of
the imagination to conceive of the
manner in which the dread disease
could be brought to this country in
spite Of the vigilence Of federal health
officers. If it should get in, we would
destroy the rats. That was how the
United States public health service
controlled the last epidemic in Cali
fornia. But why should we wait to
be hit? Why not strike first? Why
not strike for the sake of our pocket
books, for the sake of food for the
Allies, for the protection of our own
lives and those of our children?
Ask yourself-you who are now
reading this-if, through laziness,
carelessness, Or Indifference you are
giving aid and comfort to the enemy,
the rat, the ally Of the kaiser and the
junker. If so, join the Allies and
help your country win the war by
starving, trapping, and poisoning
rats

INVEST TRUST FUNDS
IN THIRD LIBERTY Bonds

Guardians and trustees having
trust funds in their possession, or I'M
der their control, the property of their
respective wards or cestui que trusts,
are informed that no better invest
ment of trust funds can be made than
by the purchasing of Liberty bonds
which pay Az per cent interest.
Guardians and trustees should not
allow trust funds to remain in their
hands, or under their control, unin-
vested. Funds uninvested should be
invested at once, and no better invest
ment can be made than in Liberty
bonds. The court advises such in
vestment and will approve of all in
vestments thus made.

Its fire bells. Eleven of them were
hung In wooden towers about Manhat-
