alone can spare it to them. BY saving just little
support those who fighting our battles And we
can do it without stinting ourselves. We have only
to substitute another food just good
The Corn of Plenty-Corn is that food There's
surplus OF it. Providence has been generous in the
hour of our need 1t has given corn in such bounty

HIGH BANKERS TREMBLE.

There is much consolation in tho re Tageblatt, one of the German papers That paper says that:
 Even people of high ranks tremhie at the news like little children listen ing to ghost stories" when they anttci- pate that within short time the American guns arc likely to be ham mering away on German villages.
 Terrible, isn't it?
 The German high rankers are trembling now, but they were mol trembling when their guns were pour ing out death and disaster on Belgium They did not have any fears wher their guns were shooting down hospl- tai ships. They did not know theu knees to shake when innocent womel and children were being starved The, agitated not when atrocities of al winks were inflicted on other people by their own people
 Germany is going to be a poor loser The people are going to lay down and cry when their homes are wrecked and their properties destroyed by the biz guns. Thy are going to "Kamerad" around like dogs, but they are not go- ing to deceive any nation or group of nations, for once the heel of victory were removed from their necks. they would in the next breath be the arro- gant nation they have always been.
 The end of the war has not come. but it is not far distant Germany is going to pay price from now on The people who have destroyed are going to be destroyed And they will not prove the warriors in defeat that they appeared to be in victory
 American sentiment demands that Germany pay full measure for what she has cost. American sentiment de- mauds that German cities be crushed. We neither demand nor would tolerate atrocities, but we want the cost and| the pang of war .eavened before there is an end to 1t.

QUITE AN ECONOMY.

The movement inaugurated by Cir cult Judge Wood and Prosecuting At torney Randolph to call the petit jury into session a considerable period af- ter the grand jury has been put 10 work is a commendable departure from a custom that was established years ago. but which had never served any useful purpose
 From the days of the establishment of our government it had been the rule that the grand and the petit jury be assembled on the same morning of the first day Of court. The grand iury.a5- ter being properly organized had wor,, before it The petit jury usually sat around the court house for the greater part of the first two weeks of it's term
 IL costs the county as much for the members of the petit jury to report tc the court house and be informed there is no trial work before it, as it would cost if they tried half a dozen eases that day.
 There are q number Of innovations that might be inaugurated in the pro cesses of the courts. and gradually these are coming to be adopted old precedents and customs naturally had strong hold. and it took initiative to depart from them. but the useless and expensive customs will be shelged gradually as the courts of the country come 10 regard their operation as op- erations not immune to economies.

Recommendation for a more equit-
able distribution OF the burdens OF
war taxation have been made TO Con-
gress by a special committee repre-
senting the National Association of
Credit Men. The committee main
tains that the operation OF the present
income and excess profits tax laws is
inequltable.
The recommendations, which were
made public here to-day by Secretary
Treasurer J. Ii. Tregoe OF the credit
men, urge that the taxes be collected
in three instalments 80 as not to
drain the resources of the country.
They would have one-third OF the
tax paid June l5, a third July Is and
a third Aug. is.
A nat Individual income tax not 20
exceed s. is urged to apply to indi-
viduals whose income equals or ex-
ceeds $500. The personal exemption
would not be altered. The nat tax
would be in addition TO taxes now or
hereafter levied and would preferably
be collected at the source.
