Freedom s Day.

Now freedom on her mountain
height is feeling gay and wear
ing bells; her hosts have won
the biggest fight of which the
page of hist'ry tells. We've seen
the tyrant's scepter drop, the
tyrant sinking in despair; our
precious boons are still on top,
our bulwarks right side up with
care. We've heard the hour of
justice strike, we've seen right
triumph over wrong, so let us,
for the love of Mike, be happy
as the day is long. l hear msn
say, Were face to face with
problems that will scar Our
souls; how shall we teach the
Russian race to strive for bet
ter, higher goals? The flag of
anarchy will fly, we fear as
much, in every breeze; how can
we throw our hats on high, and
face conundrums such as
these?" 1 say, Zone problem at
a time; We'll solve them all, or
break a slat; we've stopped the
Prusssian course of crime, and
paralyzed the autocrat. This is
the hour of OUR delight, our
cause is gained, the battles won
And freedom on her mountain
height is shooting fireworks by
the ton" And freedoms eyes
are bright as stars as from !:er
mountain she looks down, for in
the crimson. glare of Mars she
won the jewels in her crown.
Oh, may her course be cain and
sweet in all the Hateful years to
come! So let us, for the love of
Pete, take off the lid and make
things hum. WALT MASON.

EAGLE HUT IS
ROYALTY HOST

London, July 15.--When the Queen
of England, on the occasion Of the
royal visit to the American Eagle
hut, a few days ago, sampled the
American pancakes, she left part of
her portion on the plate. A soldier,
after their majesties had depal ted,
finished it, and went around boast
ing:
I'm the man who ate the queens
pancake"
The Eagle Hut boasts three at
fractions so typically American that
they are almost curiosity in London.
They are an American BARRIERS cfair,
an American bottblack stand and a
pancake griddle.
The BARRIERS chair was discovered
somewhere in England" after long,
patient search, and was bought for
$50. When the Y. NJ. c. A. people
hear the American soldier, as he
stretches out in it, say, "Ah-h, that's
the stuff" they know they maze
good investment. The English barber
chairs are upright, with an immovable
back.
In England. when an American
wants to have his shoes shincd he
looks in vain for the familiar perma-
nent chair-stands that he was accus-
toned to find in his home city. Here
he encounters only an itinerant side
walk knight of the shoebrush equipped
With small box No seat is provided

of the state food administration,
showed the importance of publicity
in food administration. He said:
"The main publicity work of the
food administration has always been
constructive publicity. Our work has
been educational, and no branch of
food conservation in the individual
counties and towns is more important
than this proper educating of the peo-
pie in the program of the govern
ment.
Educational publicity is to be en-
phasized more and more from now on
throughout the country by the nation
al food authorities. As the people
are coming to realize mere and more
the supreme value of the sacrifices
they are making, the food adNir;---z-
ton will throw greater responsibility
on the individual. We are coming to
the point where the whole problem 81
individual conservation is matter of
the individuals own conscience"
