Monument at Laclede

A move 70 construct an elabo-
rate memorial arch on the Pershine
transport route, formerly the Han
nibal and St, Joseph cross state
highway, has been started, says a
dispatch from Macon.
The plan is to erect an imposing
design at the eastern entrance of
Laclede, where Pershing was born.
The structure under consideration
will be a sort of double arch. Above
will be the figure of a United States
soldier in uniform and an allegori-
cal representative of victory. In
the center will be the name of the
road, PershiDg transport route. On
either side of the bases will be
small grass plots, surrounded by
a low wall of smooth dressed stone.

HOME TOWN FEELING.
Take Pride in Monroe City,
Buy at Home

The home town means lot more
to some people than to others.
Some people do not feel close ties
to any place They move around
without feeling of regret or loss.
They do not feel badly to part with
the friends they make, because they
do not create intimate ties. They
do not acknowledge obligation to
work in cooperation with their fel-
low citizens, and no one feels any
obligation to help them along. They
play lone hand all their days, and
never get far.
Other people have an intense
feeling of loyalty binding them to
the home soil. 1t is partly senti-
mental affection, partly a keen sense
of the advantages of business unity
and co operation. They feel united
by common tie to all the people
who live in the town. Monroe City
has lot of people of this kind, who
have been the mainstay of all our
progress. They feel keen interest
in every person or thing that was
ever connected with the place, and
any project tending to work for its
benifit has their hearty and en-
thusiastic support.
In so far as all our people ac-
Quire that point of view. we shall
attain our ideals as a community.
This involves giving a preference
in all our business relations to any,
thing that comes from the home
town II a suit of clothes sold
here is just as good as one bought
somewhere else, We should buy the
suit of clothes sold here We
might we'll buy il, even if it was
not quite 50 good, but it is not neces-
sary IN our good stores TO make
that kind of sa rfice.
When town fully acquires that
unity of spirit and purpose and
feeling, The possibilities of its pro-
gresS are enormous Ii advances
as compact mass of people devot-
ed to one end, not as a lot of separ-
ate individuals all working for di-
verse purpose.

Who Never Fought

Gen. PershiDg'S long and interest
ing account of American military
operations in France shows that
while the censor held back many
details that the American people
would like to have known, the es
sential facts in the story were all
placed before the country in official
and unofficial reports as the war
progressed.
There was one American contri-
button to the victory which the
General does not stress, but which
was decisive, nevertheless. This
knowledge brought home to the
Germans. that even if they stopped
the American advance in the Ar
gonne. it would only be to find an
other American army driving into
their thinly held lines to the south
ward or reinforcing the British
and French armies.
The Germans knew that no sue
cess over the Allies could be more
than temporary after the Ameri-
can Army had passed the 100000
mark and their morale caved in. To
this result the million and more OF
soldiers who never left this country
contributed.

GERMANY IN FUTURE?
A Question that is Just Now
Attracting Attention

The future of Germany is a SUBJ
ject that must hold the anxious at
tention of the world for some time
to come. No other modern nation
has so misused its opportunities as
the German confederation. The
German people submitted to wrong
tendencies and policies in their own
government, when they should have
resisted even to the point of revolu.
ton. 1t is true, of course, that the
War Lords, having developed mil
it ary system, we're controlling the
people in such way as to make
a revolution extremely difficult. 10
strict reality, the Germans for a
long time past have had no enemy
except their own militaristic gov.
ernment, with its groups of COM
IN ercial beneficiaries. 1t is a terri
BILE price that the, German people
are paying for having submitted to
such rulers and listened to their
professors and writer's. If they can
but learn the lesson of humility,
they will find that the people they
have wrOnged the most will be
readieSt to treat them generously.
The French have suffered long
enough to rise above hatred, and to
leave vengeance to the higher pow
ers that rule the universe. Since
Germany owes her war loans mere
ly to herself, she can disregard them
altogether for the present. She is
in a favorable position, in many re.
spects, inasmuch as her cities are
u ndestroyed, her factories are
equipped, her lands are in cultiva,
tion, and her highways of internal
commerce are open and in repair
Allied military occupation will moi
interfere with Germany's civilian
activities. The disbanding of the
G erman army and the surrender o.
the German navy will at once re
Ii eve the German people from wha
mas been their greatest public bur
den. They will be able to TAKE
prompt and rapid steps towards
meeting their Obligations to Belgium
and France, as soon as they hav,
adjusted their internal conditions
and set in motion the machinery
of their new government.

MUST RETURN PROMPT
Our Boys Overseas Entitled
to Consideration

The matter of demobilizine the
Army should not be made too diff
ficult. The war being over. the
great majority of the enlisted men
should be helped to return to their
own homes and their normal busi-
ness with the least possible delay.
To keep them in the camps is not
only a needless expense for the
Government, but an obvious injus-
fice to the men. As for the more
than two million American soldiers
who are in Europe, they were en-
listed and taken thousands Of miles
from their homes for the definite
purpose of ending a war and for
nothing else. There is not a vestige
of excuse for keeping them 10 Eu.
rope. beyond the time when ship.
ping can be found to bring them
home. Europe will have a great
many problems to deal with in this
new period after the war; but these
do not in the smallest measures con-
cern the United States Army. The
European nations in time of peace
are amply to guard their own COM.
munities and are not requiring
young Americans for police duty,
much less for any other tasks. Il
should be far easier to bring home
100000 a month than it was to take
100000 month to the theater of
war. The one task that is incom-
parably urgent beyond all other is
this DUTY of bringing back the
American Army from Europe Il
is due to the men and to their re.
latives here at home, as a matter OF
good faith. All ships coming to our
shores for food, cotton. steel, mach
inery. or supplies of any kind
should be requiSitiOGed to bring
American troops, as a condition of
being allowed to carry away goods
on the return trip. The expence of
maintaining an idle army on the
other side of the Atlantic is a very
large item everv twenty-four hours
1t would be asking too much. per.
haps. to demand the return Of two
million men in three months. al
though that would not be a harder
task than some that we have per
formed within the past half year.

The CHRISTMAS RUSH
Sane Ideas for the Sensible
Xmas Shopper

The rush of Christmas present
buying will now be on in earnest.
Unless people show some reason
and forethOught, there will be the
same old jam at Christmas time.
While the coming of peace will re-
lieve conditions somewhat, yet help
will still be short in stores, on the
railroads. and in express offices and
post offices, etc. AS usual great
many thoughtless people will delay
buying what they need until the
last week.
AS a result a large army of peo,

The merchants want the buyer

CHEERING ROAD NEWS
Prospecte for Good Roads
Never Better

The Department of Agriculture
at Washington has S70000000 to
apportion under the Federal Aid
Act for the building of new high
ways throughout the United States
during the fiscal year that will eud
next July.
Within two days from the sign
ing of the armistice all restrictions
with regard to building new roads
were rescinded, and the highway
builders of the nation are gathering
in Chicago this month to discuss
every phase of road building. From
a tentative program that has been
iss ued on behalf of the American
Association of State Highway Of.
ficials and the Highway Industries
Association it would appear that
highway control is drifting toward
federal parentage. Road building
has taken on new significance with
in the past few years, and there is a
strong probability that returning
soldiers will perform a useful ser
vice in demonstrating the value OF
eX ploslves in road building. Dyna-
mite has plowed many new high
way in making roads in France,
Belgium and Italy and the soldiers
who learned more of the value of
explosives in military road, building
will not be slow in applying their
knowledge in the making of new
highways at home. Systematic
road building must follow up the
old methods, as it has become ap.
pearent that loosely constructed
highways have no place in the new
scheme of our national highway.
With an increase of 100 per cent in
the motor truck travel in twenty
four months, and with this means
of transportation established as a
part of our new national system,
the state highway officials are in en-.
tire harmony with the viewpoint of
Washington and its road builders
in the belief that the time has come
" hen road building should be pro.
fession and a trade. Roads that
start and finish according to the
selfish plan of political pull are due
for many sever jolts as the new
system in road building develop.
The new modes of transportation
d emand trunk highways and con-
Getting lines to reach all points of
population. Rural motor routes
are being established by the Post
office Department, and through
highways connecting every part OF
the country are being planned
which will make Declines for the
principal sea-ports. These are not
visions of the future but they con-
stitute definite plans of the Govern.
ment that will be put in motion
d uriDe the coming weeks and
months.
