Great masses of small legislation

have attended to the big matters.
Much of this Is important to the
members. They will be pressed for
Information on the small matters

election year they are not anxious to
greet their home folks unless they
have attended to such matters. This
purely local legislation will prob
ably be considered in a hurry

forms cannot avoid. II seems. The

and engage in log rolling" to some
extent to get such matters before

keeps the members busy but they
dare not neglect it, for the home
folks are not to be put off by f1imsy

George Creers statement that he
is glad we entered this war 'un-
prepared" will make some of the
members of Congress sit up and
take notice. For there are a num-
ber of the lawgivers who do not
believe we are as well prepared at
this moment for actual battle as
we should be. For instance. if we
were. we would have battle planes
for our thousand aviators already
trained and in France, and we
would have a few thousand more
men over there to throw in the
ranks against the German assault
on Amiens. 1t appears to some OF
the members that it would not come
amiss II we were a little better
situated just now-in fact. il we
had enough men to make Germany
take the count this very spring or
summer. 1t would be very desir-
able TO bring this war to a close
at once-and we might do it, think
some of the members. If we had
started sooner to get ready for the

Getting Into the
 Service
.f By ROY MASON Of The Vigianfes

The doctor said no with all the final ity with which our medical men eX- amining candidates for the army can pronounce this word. The rejected candidate turned away, profoundly de jeeted, his mind in chaos because all his plans were upset. He was over draft age, but he had been so conf dent that he could pass. He was of no use in this WaR, he reflected bit terly. He might as well be cripple or blind for all that he could do to help.
 It had seemed so simple to pay all his dabts. arrange his affairs, put his surplus into Liberty Bonds and the odd change into War Savings Stamps and then enlist And now they wouldn't have him. All on account of an infinitesimal heart murmur.
 "There's no use sending one man to the front whom two will have to carry back" the doctor had said decidedly.
 As he slouehed down Michigan ave nue In Chicago, dropping in mind and body, he noticed button on the coat Id1tI Ol d SlA-lOol Sll dllStl. It NaiS llpl a Liberty Bond button, nor Red Cross button. The stranger stopped to gaze out over Lake Michigan and he managed to read War Camp Commit nifty Service" upon it. The stranger looked up. saw him reading, and gave him a quick appraising glance.
 A Ray of Sunshine.
 "Know about it?n he asked.
 "No," the dejeeted man answered half heartedly. What is it?"
 Great stuff his new acquaintance informed. Little old war job the Recreation Association of America took on when the soldiers and sailors began springing up over night like mushrooms. It's tied up with the War Department Commission for Training Camp Activities-'
 The man who had been turned down by the doctor pricked up his ears.
 "What do you do?' he wanted to know.
 The siX-feoter grinned.
 "Kind of long story" he began, but we get after every community anywheres near the training camps and forts and naval stations, and we'll see that the boys get some sensi- ble entertainment-get folks interest cd in them as individuals, you know, so that they get chance to eat a meal in a house with regular family around them. We get up dances. too. with mothers. just like the ones they've left, for ehaperons. Then we fix up clubs, and lists of cheap lodg- ings which are all right. There's a lot to do, you can bet your bottom dollar on tnat."

The Pacifist as a War Worker
By MINNIE BOYER DAVIS
 of The Vigiiantes

Some were pacifsts before the war. Some of these have changed while oth- ers-well, for instance. my friend-or rather my former friend Miss E. She never did believe in war. When Bel gium was invaded and the Hun fe- ed little girls she still refused to be- lieye in War. To some of us war seem ed the most horribly apparent fact in the world but still she did not believe in 1t. She was a pacifist; and paci- fist, as near as 1 can tell, seems to be enc who has resolved to ignore war as long as the war does not hurt them. She had been for years, and is still, a state employee, and at times she has been q social worker, one of those we'll meaning persons who believe that one part of society is qualified to reach down and lead by the hand certain more unlueky parts of society to show them the way they should go.
 Up to the last minute of the last hour before the war vote was taken my former friend maintained that we had nc cause for War and there WAS no possibility that we would ever be in the war. Just what went on in her mind when we took up our stern task Of checking the advance of the Hun cannot guess and she has never told. l wondered if she would stick to her principles and fight for them. I no- ticed that she bought bonds and sub scribed to the Red Cross. She may have been one of those who would give to the Red Cross because in doing so she was not helping the war. Other pacitists have said as much, but even their tainted" money will help.
 At Red Cross Headquarters.
 Later 1 learned that my former friend had gone to Washington, spend- ing her vacation as q clerical helper in Red Cross headquarters. Then l be- lieved that she had been regenerated and was no longer q pacifist. We had been pretty stiff about the time war was declared owing to our different views, but 1 now felt free to write and tell her to find place for me to work also. Her reply amazed me. She wrote that Washington was too crowded a
