fit of weeping.

THE LESSON OF WAR CONDITIONS

One lesson that may be learned from the war is the
correct valuation Of the liberties enjoy These have
been broad and unrestraned that many persons
cept them license for commission of excesses against
organized government Few of place the proper value
upon them.
Now that the is curtailing of these liberties
because of military necessity hear great deal of
grumblng. We asked to be guarded in speech,
careful in consumption of food and economical in
our expenditures that may have money to loan our
government at fair rate Of interest And there is
considerable discomfort these matters not much
because Of the hardshps entaled the fact that the
government before in the memory of the present
generation at least placed any restrictions at all upon
It's citizens, asked their financial assistance. We have
been bothered little that many of scarcely realized
that there was government over us that might some
day call upon 20 pay it allegiance and back it
morally and fnanciayto defend it if need be with
very lives.
The nature Of our freedom ought to be apparent
to everyone when loss of only small portion Of the
heritage handed down to us by those who it with
their blood and treasure emphasizes its priceless value
The people Of other nation in the world enjoy the
liberties do and if not willing to defend them
it will develop in Of time that unworthy to
enjoy them and they will be taken from us.

For you and me the brave boys go to face
a grim and deadly foe, to fight in darkness,
cold and snow, for you and me. They break
off all their cherished ties, they say, per-
haps, their last good byes, to suffer under
foreign Skies for you and me. They leave
the safe and peaceful grind; they go, their
cOuntry's need in mind, and leave their
weeping girls behind for you and me. We
are too old, too fat or lame, to climb the

successes. In operations during this
period he claimed $4,000 prisoners,
1000 guns and conquest of 1000
square miles. In the June offensive
the Germans took no more than $4,000
prisoners and made only slight gains
in territory. In July the fifth Ger
man offensive was broken in days
after the capture of less than 10000
prisoners and an advance Of hardly
more than three miles, followed by an
allied counter offensive, the capture
of $4,000 prisoners and 700 guns. Al
ter this comes the third Somme, and in
this offensive at least $4,000 prison
ers and 800 guns had been taken when
Mr.. Simonds' article was written,
making a total of 10000 prisoners
and 1,500 guns in a single month.
More than a thousand square miles
of French territory, more than half
the area captured by the Germans in
the earlier battles, also has been TAX
en- in this month.
"The meaning of these events" Mr..
Simonds concludes, "is measured by
the statistics of military strength in
the two armies during them. Nearly
40 divisions stronger in March, the
German won his greatest victory and
he was able to continue his victorious
career until he lost the advantage
of numbers. Having lost it, his defeats
were prompt, and he has no chance
of regaining, not the advantage of
number but the relative comfort of an
equal force, in this war"

GIBBONS HOLDS
Fl. CHATTANOOGA
From Daily Standard

In the matter of the application OF
Perry Gibbons for the newewal of his
saloon license at Chattanooga, the two
members of the Liquor Licensing Board,
having failed to agree, a third member,
R. l.. Mattingly, was sought to render
an opinion on the case. After reviewing
the protests and complaints in full, he
summarizes his opinion that Gibbons
should have license as follows:
81 therefore find from the evil
dence that his license should be re
newed as applied for, and so decide,
and as a third member of this board,
vote in favor of granting the same"
He holds that the acts of public inde-
cency and disorder, as occurring at Chat
tanooga, are all provided for in law, forms
of procedure and punishment. But the
liquor license board has no power, so
long as the personal acts of the licensee
are not involved, and that if it might be
prudent to make Chattanooga dry terri
tory are not matters within the power of
the board to remedy.
On March ID Gibbons filed his appli-
cation for renewal of his saloon license,
and on April 80 the protests and COM
plants were filed: ID Selling to an in
toxicated person; ~ selling quantities
of liquor to be carried into Indiana ter
ritory; 60 various other offenses against
law, and (4) the material charge that
Perry Gibbons is not of good moral
character.
In the opinion of Mr. Mattingly, the
sole question for the board to determine,
is Perry Gibbons man of good moral
character2 That it must be admitted
that the mere fact of being saloon
keeper and selling liquor does not in any
way abridge the claim of good moral
character of the applicant, for the law
itself has made the business moral in a
legal and public sense. So, he concludes.
that inasmuch as the accused applicant
has in fact wilfully violated no laws of
the state and that the courts are ready
to remedy all the unhappy conditions
prevailing in and about Chattanooga, and
so to try and convict the applicant for
renewal of license for any actual offense
against the law, this board should not
take action which would destroy invest
ments made by such applicant in good
faith in business which evidence shows
he has conducted in praiseworthy man
ner until conditions inhamed public
opinion to some extent against him with
out sufficient proof of guilt on his part.

Columbus, May 21.-Vacation Thrift
Committees-the organizations perfected
to direct activ ties of the participants in
the Vacation Thrift Contest of the Ohio
War Savings Committee - have been
formed in nearly every county in the
state. These committees are response
BILE for the direction of the local activi-
ties in the state contest, for which prizes
aggregating $1,000 in value are to be
distributedto winners.
The educational division of the Ohio
War Savings Committee, which has su-
pervision of the prize contest, insists
that notification be forwarded to Colum-
bus of the organization of vacation thrift
committees. Specially prepared report
ing cards have been issued to each coun-
ty war savings organization and to the
city and county school superintendents
1t is especially important that the state
headquarters be informed of the organ
ization of vacation thrift committees
Only through such information will it be
possible to establish direct communica
tion with the local committees. These
committees were to have been formed
before May S. A reasonable extension
of time has been granted, however. I'M
mediate notification should be forwarded
to the state committee.
In Mercer county the following vaca-
tion thrift committees have been formed
