Cay was asked to act as auctioneer

NOR throughout the entire sale. The
donations were the first offered for
sale and brought large prices. A pig
donated b Martin Swift and a bush
ell of flax by Segur Robertson and a
lot In Gayton's addition were among
the larger donations. Net the we'll
filled baskets were sold, after which
all enjoyed the contents. The pro-
ceeds of the evening amounted to
about $3.50, and the Red Cross ladies
were highly elated over the success
of the venture. This shows that the
citizens of Selfridge are as loyal as
any and this is very good showing
for a small town but year old.

LETTERS FROM SOMEWHERE
IN FRANCE
FROM FRED p. YOUNG.
March Is, 1918.

Dear Brother: -
Another package came a couple OF
days ago. Thank you very much. The
gloves came just when l needed them
and the trench cap is dandy. Also
thanks much for the toilet articles
and chocolate. The other package
came a week ago with the sweater
and candy. am wearing the sweat
er but the candy was short.lived. 1t
was mighty good and several Of the
fellows send their thanks with mine.
was very fortunate getting two pack
ages from Harriet and her mother
also. They sent me socks and cigar
cites. One pair of socks had red,
white and blue embroidered on top
and the other had green and white,
Alpha Delft Phi at the top. l have
stood in good need Of these things
the past ten days since we have been
at the front. wrote Harriet a letter
from my dugout. can't say a great
deal about it all, but you can know
that l came through unscratched and
feeling better than when l went in.
We were severely bombarded for
three days and was shot at many
times by the enemy snipers. Oh yes,
am transferred to the Stokes French
Mortar section of the company. /
like the change very much. principally
because | see more action and every
thing is intensely exciting. We have
wonderful gun capable of doing an
immense amount of damage to the
enemy whenever we get the order to
fire. We lived about 40 feet in the
ground and slept in hunks, that is
whenever we got the chance. On the
whole, can say that l like this
game good big lot and If can come
out all right so much the better.

much interest. always like them.
The Detroit Free Press has been very
irregular. have not received any
for three weeks. am writing in the
Y. NJ. C. A. and around me are French
: and Italian soldiers. 1t is q wonderful
thing all of US over here for a com.
mon cause. We get along fanously
with the French. They are first class
soldiers and have all the "guts" in
the world. / have learned one fact
from my stay in the trenches; that we
don't know a d." thing about
fighting, but we are going to learn in
a hurry since it is being crammed
down our threats. AS always am In
the best of health and happy as they

WITH THE EDITORS
WHEN MR.. TOWNLEY APPEARS

A. c. Townley head Of the Nonpartisan league
has asked for and will be granted hearing before
the senate committee on military affairs to answer
the charges of disloyalty made against the organl-
cation by Mr. MCGEE of the Minnesota Public
safety commission. He may also have chance to
reply to accusations or implications made by Sena-
tor Sherman against the leagues boss.
It is to be hoped Mr.. Townley will take with
him copies of speeches he delivered last summer,
long after this country went to war in Willlston,
Devils Lake and other cities in North Dakota In
order also would be the exact text of an attack he
made on Herbert C. Hoover at the St. Paul con-
vention of the Nonpartisan league where Senator
La Toilette was the headliner. Possibly he has a
copy of a Tribune facsimile reproduction OF an
affidavit by Camp Dodge soldier declaring that
Mr. Townley had interested himself in getting a
North Dakota game warden appointment for the
young man in the expectation he might thereby be
exempted from military service and become an or
ganizer for the Nonpartisan league in Kansas.
That should go too. E~'.s g..
We feel quite sure the senate committee would
be deeply interested in the financial workings OF
the Nonpartisan league-a subject Mr.. Towney
is excelently we'll qualified to discuss This phase
of the leagues career would seem to be germane
in view of what Senator Sherman had to say on
the floor of the senate, and in more general way
in view of what Mr.. MCGEE told the committee.
Will Mr.. Townley be frank enough to go into de-
tails about the expenditure or disposition OF the
large amount of money that has been collected in
the name of the league? The recital would be very
interesting, we feel sure, to many thousands OF
persons in this and other states.-Mlnneapolls

1T DOESN'T FIT THE CRIME

Atty. Gen. Sims claims to have the names Of
10000 New York men who subscribed to the Ger
man or Austrian war bonds and an eastern news
paper suggests that he punish them by publishing
his list.
Such punishment would be real genteel but if
these men subscribed for such bonds, after our
declarations of war on Germany, the U. S. gov
eminent should confiscate all the property they've
got and jail them. Every time vile alien enemy
is punished by slap on the wrist, some of the
folks go to thinking Of ropes and lampposts.

DISAPPOINTMENT AWAITS HIM HERE


That misguided lord mayor Of Dublin evidently
knows as little about the modern political history
of the United States as he does about that of the
England he persists in hating. Else, surely, would
he not persist, as yesterdays dispatches said he
does, in the determination-if he can get pass
ports or in other words, if England will let him
to come over here and tell US why the Irishmen in
Ireland should be exempted from the task of help
ing other Irishmen the world over help other de-
cent folk defeat the Germans. Of course his mis-
sion is hopeless one, but perhaps it would be as
well to let him cross the sea.
Very soon after his arrival even he will be con-
vinced that while his blood still bois violently
when he thinks-as seemingly he does all the
time-about the massacre Of Drogheda, Amer-
cans, including the great majority of rish-Amer-
cans, realize that George Ill., died some years ago,
and that the England of the prison ships and the
rented Hessans is not the England that sends
destroyers into Zeebrugge and fights side by side
with our men and the French in Flanders We,
too, had our grievances, and they ranked long,
but the old account is more than squared now, and
the lord mayor of Dublin would be terribly dsap-
pointed in his expectation of sympathetic hear
ing while he denounced an ally to whom we are
deeply indebted
Incidentally, he will encounter over here good
many people OF his own blood whose SONS nave
given conclusive proof that they do not agree with
him in favoring the German cause, and, as they
are highly articulate fraction of population,
he will be left in no doubt as to their opinion Of
Irishmen who are doing what they can to increase
and prolong the dangers to which those same sons
are now exposed. He will hear from them too,
some sound truths as to the relation between con-
scription and Irish home rule-truths of which he
and his kind seemingly have permitted as yet no
faintest glirhmer to enter their minds.
So, if the lord mayor is wise, he will stay at
home, where, thanks to England's lenience more
safely than here, he can continue, if he must, to
lend aid and comfort to England's enemy and ours.

PROPER OCCASIONS FOR FEAR

Light forever follows darkness, good often
comes from evil and courage is often born OF fear.
Fear is one of the strongest of human instincts
and one of the first to develop in the child. There
is no reason to be ashamed if we are afraid, for
our ancestors have wished" this horror on us
down the ages. But to be ruled by fear is no
credit to an intelligent man or woman The less
an individual fears, the more civilized he is.
"The progress from brute to man is character
lied by nothing so much as the decrease in fire.
quency of proper occasions for fear" wrote Will
liam James, first among American psychologists.
There are evidently few proper occasions"
for fear, but still it is quite possible for compacent
and unimaginative persons to live through their
generation without experiencing the feeling at ALL
Even the atrocities committed by the Hunnish
hordes do not touch certain minds and hearts.
James, although he died some years ago, hit such
cases in this paragraph:
eve conclude (if we know no fear) that the
horrors we hear of are but sort of painted tapes
try for the chambers in which we lie so comfort
ably at peace with ourselves and with the world"
Evidently fear must have very positive value
if it can rouse an individual from such lethargy.
And in fact fear has often benefited man. Fear of
hunger forced man to sow and reap. Fear of pain
drove him to cure disease Fear of poverty drove
him to thrift. Fear, like most elemental emo
tons has it's positive and its negative values. Un-
doubtedly, it is an instinct to conquer when a
burglar invades the home, or when soldier faces
the enemy. But undoubtedly, it is an instinct
which will strengthen righteous hate-when a
kaiser draws the sword .. - Il. =.
!: Unless you know what fear is you cannot ap'
preciate courage, and you will not sufficiently
honor the brave who fight your battles overseas
Don't fear your fears. Don't be ashamed OF
your fears. Control them as you love your coun
try and its defenders. Conserve them as you hate
the Hun.

THE CONSERVATION OF THE BOY CAM

We have never taken our "boy problem" seri-
ously. Usually we were inclined to view it from
the angle "Boys will be boys" and most of them
turned out all right, good, honest useful citizens,
and for the rest we built prisons.
Now, however, we must take it seriously. We
must conserve the boy CROP For from this crop
we must grow the men of tomorrow. We are los
ing man power "Over There" and we will go on
making heavier and heavier sacrifices of life to
the end that all the world shall be free from the
hand of Hunnish despotism. America is just be-
ginning to give of her man-power.
Back Of this man-power, coming up through
the paths of boyhood are millions Of lads, who will
be the makers of future America, the husbands
and fathers and presidents in the years when this
world war has been written on the pages of his
terry. While we are backing the boys who 60 over
there we must keep our eye on the younger broth
ers they leave behind. The eye only isn't enough
we must keep helping hand ever extended to
them. There isn't anything more important than
our boys-the fighting boys and the growing boys.
It is of supreme Importance that we engage in
an energetic and intelligent movement to save
every boy.
War not only costs in man-power, but it in
creases juvenile delinquency. Juvenile court rec
ords in many large industrial centers show an in
crease in youthful law volators within the past IL
months. Chicago, alone, shows IS per cent in:
crease. European nations face the same alarming
condition. Why more boys should 60 wrong in
war time no one seems to know, but it is fact
that they do 1t isn't theory; it's matter of
court records and police blotters
In Chicago they are trying a new boy expert
ment. There they have formed a "Boys Brother
hood Republic" designed to draw bad boys, lads
who roam the streets, and the homeless, into chan
nels which lead to honest manhood and useful
citizenship. There they believe that the way to
reform bad boy is to let loose his boysh energy
and pent-up enthusiasm in ways wholesome and
up-building. They have met with remarkable sue
cess in not preaching to boys, or furnishing them,
but in leading them.
And what will make a good boy out for bad
boy will keep good boy good.
Try it on your boy.
This community will do we'll to try it on mo-
bodys boy"
