There is only one way better than
! for the allied troops to enter Germany
and destroy the homes, the cities, the
villages, orchards and crops. That
way is to take this property from the
Germans and give it to the Belgians,
French and Serbians whose homes
and property were destroyed by the
Huns. Germany begs to not have
her homes destroyed Let US not
destroy them but take them, undam-
aged and give them to those whose
homes were destroyed. All in favor
say "aye." Carried, unanimously.
Can you imagine an American,
French, British, Belgian, Italian or
Serbian soldier hanging back when
ordered to charge the enemy and CIV
ing feeble and threadbare excuses for
not advancing-the kind of excuses
American people are giving for not
buying bonds to support those sol
diers?
Speeding up war work is the best /
and most effectual answer to Ger |
many's offer to accept President Will
sons terms. Germany must not be
permitted to quit now. Let her take
the punishment she so richly deserves.

WOMEN'S PART IN WAR.

Shall we say that women contrib

An affection confined to women
must have its cause in the woman

Bacon and Bullets.

Are you a soldier clad in khaki .?
If you answer no, then you are
not worth your bacon. This is not
meant to disparage you, but it does
mean that our soldiers must have
bacon. Fats are quite as important
in fighting this was as guns or am
milton, and bacon is one of the chief
sources of fat.
Fats supply energy to the body,
and pork fat is more used in the
army than any other, because it is
more readily shipped and it is the
meat best liked by the men working
at hard manual labor.
Without fats, people weaken and
waste away. The armies must have
fats to keep up the fight.
But the American people as a
nation need not worry about their
own lack OF fats, for the average
consumption per person in this
country is 3S ounces a day, while
ounces is quite adequate to sus-
tain health and vigor, and in all
probability better health and more
vigor will result from a diminished
use of fats.
1t is our soldiers, sailors and the
Allies about whom we need worry
France and England are short oi
fats, terribly short, and America
must make up that shortage, out OF
her own over-abundance.
If every person in America saves
one ounce of fat a day we can ship
fats enough for our soldiers, sailors
and Allies.
One-third OF an ounce of fats
measured in bacon amounts to just
about two thin slices of bacon. Civ.
ing up two slices OF bacon a morn.
ing does not seem much of hard.
ship when we realize what a vita
necessity it is to keeping up the
health and vigor of the men behinc
the guns, yet that two slices of ba
con is one-third OF the ounce yor
are trying to save.
But don't make the mistake O
thinking you are saving animal fat!
for the soldiers when you dom
have bacon for breakfast, if yol
would not have had it anyway. Sav
ing means the ctual giving up o
something you are actually in the
habit Of using.
Bullets and bacon! If you ar,
not using bullets send your bacon t
someone who is using them.

Speedy typists are carefully chos-

of group of slower workers. This
arrangement promotes group speed,

girls are assigned to places between
brunettes, for the bureau manage
lment believes blondes are OF more
nervous temperament, and the bru
|nettes provide steadying infu
Ience.
Each check is typed individually,
and a government law provides that
checks also must be signed individu-
ally, rather than stamped mechani-
lcally. The signing is big task.
signature duplicating machines are
fused, ten checks being signed by
each original signature of a pay
clerk.
Even the choice of pay clerks is
Ia lesson in efficiency. Not person.
lality, not training, but length OF
lpatronymic names is the determin-
ling factor. Men with short names
work at the signing machines, for
more short names can be signed
daily than long names. This is the
reason the Jobs are held by +.

Yet with all the efficiency meth
ods of this big office, it must short

now being perfected by M. f. Bail
ey, the chief disbursing clerk. These
machines, by single operation, will
stamp the check with the name OF
the payee, the amount, the address,
the name of the soldier, his organ
ization sign and the serial number
OF the check.
In addition to this disbursement
work, the bureaus life insurance

Brusty Old Bachelors Wit Might

Chicago News: There is not 60

crusty old bachelor.
How is that" asked his nephew,
who had just got married.
II see the legislature has passed
a law forbidding weakminded per-
sons to marry, and they are the only

Il thing"
As old Daniels is rich, both the
nephew and his young wife laughed
heartily at the wit of the old man.

Washington, March 9.-The last
of the February pay checks, carry
ing money allotments by soldiers
and sailors and government allow
ances to their dependents at home,
went into the mails today. More
than 100000 checks have been writ
ten and an extraordinary effort has
been made to have the dependents
get their allowances early in the
month.
The average amount OF each
check is about SIS, and the total
monthly disbursement runs above
Sl20O0000. Usually the allotment
from the soldiers pay is about SIS,
and the government family allow
ance about SIS, the exact amount
being fixed by the number OF de-
pendentS.
Regardless of the wholesale
quantity of docuHents, each letter
and each check is regarded as a dis
tinct human document, on inStruc-
tions of the director OF the bureau,
William c. Delaney. Every woman
tvpist and man sorting clerk has
been impressed with the idea that
the welfare of soldiers family may
depend on the speed, accuracy and
personal interest shown by the bu-
reau's workers.
SO this is the task and the spirit
of one of the governments greatest
bureaus, the treasury department S
bureau of war risk insurance. Con-
gressional criticism of delays in the
distribution OF allotment and allow
ance have been met with assurance
that superlatiye promptness, impos-
sible in the past because OF the dis
order following the sudden creation
of new system to supplant the old
pension plan, will be displayed in
the future.
In the meanwhile, this is the way
the human machine works:
Experts in office management
havee devised special schemes of OF
flee routine. More than two thou
sand young men and girls can not
be managed efficiently by haphazard
methods. Regular recreation pc
riods in the middle OF the morning
and afternoon are provided. There
is a piano and a graphopnone, ant
the girls dance during the short re-
cess. The managers say that they
do 80 per cent better work as 4 re-
suit. There is a lunch room, oper
ated at cost. The bureau has (
