TO THE MEMORY OF
RUSSELL 8. WHITMAN

Human life IL an unfinished drama
to be completed in the Afterward. SO
runs the wisdom Of our race.
The unexpected departure Of Rus
sell s. whitman from among as gives
added emphasis to that fact. IL is
one of the regrets of our humanity
that we do not always appreciate
the noble nature in our. midst until
the stern finger of imperious Time
reminds us that--"Here lies'-and.
that
1.-THE tides that run along
Lffe's unresisting sea-
somehow caught him in the fatal un-
dertow that men for want of better
term call Death. Yet with clear I'M
deratanding that It has no dominion
over us, neither In this world nor in
that Bourn of Mystery towards which
our race hopefully and persistently
turns as true Soldier OF the Infinite.
The echoes Of his life still linger
in these Corridors OF Time. And his
presence, like the sweet perfume of
the flowers after the summer has
gone, and one can hear the clear ton
ed note Of the music he loved SO we'll,
as the winds sweep the strings Of
Gods great Aeolean in that Mighty
Hallelujah Chorus. For the Harps OF
Heaven have no broken strings. Thus
with him 1t will be said
There will be no moaning Of the
sea
When / have crossed the Bar"
In such q nature one would expect
q fine regard for womanhood. Moth
or, / could not look you In the face
If refused to aid and protect the
womanhoOd OF Belgium" For 30
such as he--
Regard for womanhood beats in
his blood,
And all things high come easy to
him."
The days Of chivalry are not past
So long as such as he remain the type
OF American manhood the race need
not despair or the future. And the
Flag will continue to represent the
traditions and fine ideals Of that ''Di-
vine event towards which the whole
creation moves"
His death was the utmost and I'm
est tribute our race can pay to an
Ideal, whether Of Government, OF
law, or OF religion. It IL the final
test Of loyalty TO a person or q prin-
cIple.
The tribute we render to q noble
nature Is but the endeavor OF our
bbhAhA4CAAhB SuAtAC0 w V@RANp1 SAAep'
which even the witchery Of human
speech however eloquent can fully
tell of that fine sense OF high regard
for the equities or life that in time
OF desperate need led him to make
the supreme sacrifice that held the
battleline of Democracy against Q
bloody and relentless foe.
All hail to such as hel And tC
the Spartan Motherhood that knows
the sweet anguish OF birth and tbs
bitter pangs Of untimely death. Fol
IL ID thus that
Humanity sweeps onward where
today the martyr stands;
Tomorrow crouches Judas with the
silver In his hand"
But the goal IL neither distant moi
uncertain. To the fatherhood Of tbs
race comes sterner duties. All mus
see then the dim vista OF the swift
moving years that In the last analysis
blood and tears are the most precious
heritage Of the earth and
HE did his duty"
No finer tribute can be paid u
human nature than this 1t goes intt
the record--the warp and the wool
of many things OF this old earth
which are for brief time once helt
but now lost awhile. Yet we can say
Dear Heart, FAREWELL and sing
God be with you
Till we meet again"

To the Editor: Let all the United

peace instead of printing such grue-

1t is only helping kill and murder our
dear boys at the front every time it is
done. Don't make it any worse for
them but try to better conditions for
the boys that have their lives at stake.

In as much as so many home papers
are sent across to our dear ones who
beg for news from home, I sent two
copies of the New Years number of
the Journal to France but hated it on
account of the cartoon on the front

be put out by throwing kerosene on it,
but makes it hotter and worse Just
such is the case with this; but now

down all the antagonism against the

aPplles to all kinds of busi1ess-gen-

that you shonld have whole or a

shonid be mentioned if you do not use
more than two line space. A strang-

aDle to tell just what business is rep
resented IN a town by looking at the
business mentioned in the paper.
TINS is the best possible town adver-
user. The man who does not advertise
ms business does an injustice to him
self and his city. He is the man who
expects the newspaper to do the most

man who insists on sharing the bus

WEAKNESS REMAINS
LONG after
Reports Show That Strength,
Energy and Ambition Re-
turn Very Slowly to Grippe
Patients.

After an attack of influenza, doc
tors advise that nature be assisted
in its building-up process by the
use of a good tonic-one that will
not only put strength and endur-
ance into the body, but will also
help to build up and strengthen the
rundown cells of the brain.
One of the most highly recon-
mended remedies to put energy into
both body and brain is Bio-feren-
your physician knows the formula
1t is printed below.
There's iron in Bio-feren-the
kind of iron that makes red blood
corpuscles and creates vigor. There
is lecithin also, probably the best
brain invigorator known to science.
Then there is good old reliable gem
tian, that brings back your tagging
appetite.
There are other ingredients that
help to promote good health, as you
can see by reading this formula, not
forgetting kolo, that great agent
that puts the power of endurance
into weak people.
Taken altogether, Bio-feren is a
splendid active tonic, that will
greatly help any weak. rundown
person to regain normal strength,
energy, ambition and endurance.
Bio-feren is sold by all reliable
druggists and is inexpensive. For
weakness after influenza patients
are advised to take two tablets after
each meal and one at bed time
seven a day, until health. strength
and vIgor are fully restored.
1t will not fail to help you, and.
if for any reason you are dissatisfied
with resuits yOur druggist is aitthor
lied to return your money upon
request-without any red tape of
any kind.
Note to physicians: There is no
secret about the formula of Bio-feren
il is printed on every package Here
u is: Lecithin; Calcium Glycero-
phosphate; Iron Peptonate; Manga
nese Peptonate; Ext. NuX. Vomica;

quested the local chapter to send
100 Christmas boxes for the boys

money or gifts toward the parcels
will be received at the chapters

Public Library.
In his letter Director Guild gives
an outline of what is suggested for

1--WE are planning a real victory
Christmas for the sick and wounded
soldiers in this hospital to include
also the men who with most unset
fish devotion have cared for their
comrades through the trying days of
the epidemic of influenza.
Many OF these are from your
own locality, and we feel that you
will therefore, wish to share in this
happy privilege of sending a CHEEKY

receive Victory Christmas Box

gifts:
"One large Cor two smalD pack
