St. Patrick's Day

This is a great holiday, national holiday an in- ternational holiday Today will be singularly dis tinguished, day peculiarly sacred to country which is not nation, though for some time it has been trying to be-Island. Today is St. Patrick's Day, March r. It has not always been honored as it will be today. The stores, shops and public offices all over this land will be closed The saloons also will be closed in the states of Arizona Kansas Washington, oregon, Maine and many others There will be services in the churches not only America but of all civilized countries. Even in such barbaric land Germany there will probably be some special observance of the day.
 Factories, except those engaged in war work will be silent today. Parks and pleasure grounds everywhere will resoYpd with the joyful shouts of children. The news carriers of The Republican have chosen this sacred day the time for an annual picnic and will celebrate it on the desert They will note the absence of snakes and that will recall to them that there are no snakes in Ireland thanks to the heneficent and adverse influence of the good Saint Patrick It is going to be great holiday There will not be another like it for eight years by which time we hope the reptiles will also be all driven out of Germany; that that country will be as free from snakes Ireland or the prohibition states of this union.

How to Save Flour

We offer this merely s a suggestion to the food administration for an improvement of the means of conserving wheat While the present plan of re- quiring purchase of wheat flour to be accompanied by purchases of certain cereals of equal weight corn meal rice etc, wheat flour, it encourages waste of great deal of the other foods. And in the cases of some people who sufficiently wasteful and lacking in patriotism, the plan does not really conserve flour Such people can buy more wheat flour then they need if they only buy of the other cereals in the quantity at the same me though the government has taken such precautions it could against boarding.
 We have made some inquiry concerning the work ing of this plan and find that in many households these enforced purchases have been stored away, probably to be used. Much of the rice, corn meal and other cereals will be destroyed by mice, weevil and other agencies some of these foods will be fed to chickens and other, will be cooked, half eaten and thrown away.
 We recognize of course. that thoroughly loyal people will waste but the whole population is not loyal Another part which thinks it is loyal and is willing to make any sacrifice that necessary to the winning of the war. has not yet realized that the time has for that small sacrifice.
 If the money spent for these wasted foods saved and spent for saving stamps bonds. the total amount would be gratifying and surprising As it is the waste which is thus made possible by the enforced purchasing pan is far greater in many households than it was in the old ante-bellum days when half the high cost of living carted away by the garbage
 Now, for the suggestion which know will not be received with joyous acclaim-the card system. That has been vaguely threatened but there has seemed to be serious intent to apply it in this country. But other countries have been forced it. It was first employed in Germany and afterward adopted in Great Britain. When those governments confronted with the necessity conserving some one kinds of food they decree that foods be purchased only by cards issued by the govern men limiting the amount and frequency of purchase.
 The card system is hateful know but it's bad effect is only psychological. As nation to disregard psychological things and be pre- pared to face solid material facts There not much psychology among the Germans.
 Beside the card system would impose no hardship the users of flour, the loyal, the disoyal or the merely unloyal The loyal would not be restricted to less wheat flour than they They would use as they do in about the proportion as is required to be purchased with flour the other cereals The disoyal and the unloyal could then by means of wasteful and extravagant purchases of the other required cereals acquire quantities wheat flour. They would find themselves compelled to use and not waste these cereals.

AMERICAN SOLDIERS
 ANX|OUS[Y PLAN ON
 SECRETARY'S VISIT
Republican A. P. Leased Wirel


 WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY IN France. Tuesday, March 12.-After weeks of rain, snow, wind and murky weather there came to the American front today it's first bath of genial spring sunshine. The skies were cloud- less and in the moderate temperature that prevailed sweaters were dis carded by the men for the first time since last summer, while in the vil- lages where they are billeted and in the cantonments in the training area, the camps were decorated with rolls of bedding being given an airing. Men and horses basked in the sunshine in 1 the streets and on the hillsideS--a grateful experience after the winter damp chill.
 Everywhere one could see equipment hung out to dry, tent laps and hut win dows open and hospital patients breathing the sweet spring air. Meah- while. the transport work was being expedited by the rapidly drying roads. In the training areas the fullest ad- vantage was taken of the open weather, the officers crowding the men to will ingly renewed efforts to make them fit for front line service.
 1 Airplanes in FIocks Under the sunshine Hn3 the still at nosphere airdromes all along the line l sprouted flocks of planes both or trial and on serious missions, and every where there was eXpectant readiness for an enemy offensive if it should develop.
 The troops both on ti;e front and in the training areas are cn the tiptoe of expectation for the arrival of Secretary or War Baker, the presence of whom m France was announced in the Paris morning newspapers and took the whole army by surprise. Word of the secfetarys presence in France was spread rapidly by telephone from the 'oases to the furthermvst outposts. Of ilcefs Tn villages at outlying points stopped the newspaper motors and asked for definite word when Mir. Baker would arrive. "The old man Will Ind us ready to pass inspection" :" it was said
 Pleased by Visit
 In army circles there is a general qualification over the coming of Mr. paher In order that he maly see at close hand what has been accomplished thus far in the face of the obstacles ana the difficulties of distance and es- l tion of the troops, so that he may carry nome personal knowledge of easily remedled deficiencies and complaints.
 The most serious of the deficiencies ana complaints surrounded the army mall service. Everywhere the rank and lie complain of the absence or great delay in mail from home. Company o1Ticers generally say the mail prob lem IS one of the most serious they have had to contend with, because the men become lonely and anxious in the ab- sence of word from their families. The ordinary mails are from one month to six weeks ahead of the army mails ana the officers express the belief that there Will be no better factor for the happiness of the men than the most expeditions mail service it is possible 10 deVlse-even faster service thar through the ordinary civilian channels

RESULTS, NOT EXCUSES, ARE WANTED

Frederick Winslow Taylor the father of Scen- tific Management, always said in his famous lecture printed now for the first time in the March Ameri- Magazine:
 What your employer wants is results, req sons. He wants you to get there, and he is not interested in your explanation of why you failed to get there There is one saying which have all used since childhood and which has had little part In the failure of unsuccessful men. We have all of us said; have done the best that know how no one could expect any more of me. Now, whenever
 man fails to get the result that his employer asks Tor he should feel intense chagin and disappoint- ment, instead of feeling satisfied because he has done the best he knows how What we are in the world Tor IS continually to learn to do better than we know how And be sure that in ninety nine out Of one hundred your employer has very little interest in hearing that you have the best you know how,' when you have failed.
 Andrew Carnegie came back from England one summer, and found thaht of his superintendents had made an unusually large profit in his plant He wrote this man check for fifteen thousand dollars as gift. Another of his superintendents had lost money and when this man started to explain to Mr Carnegie the reasons for this loss, Carnegie said Oh, John, don't bother about telling me any reasons One single reason is good enough Just tell me that you fool that do.

SPLIT GEAR SLIPPING

It frequently happens that a split gear develops tendency to slip on it's sha1t. As an emergency measure this may be remedied by wrapping sand paper which has been doubled over the shaft, so that it acts as a sham be- tween gear and shaft In this way both gear and shaft have 6 rough sanded surface against them, which effective. ly prevents slippage.
