PROGRESS IS STAMPED ON
EVERY STAR AND STRIPE

kings and the name of the ruling
monarch may be found printed on
them. What then is the difference !?
One little, but all important step.
The real inventor of printing was the
man into whose mind flashed the
fruitful idea of having separate
stamps for each letter instead of one
for separate words. How slight
seems the difference and yet for
5000 years the thought occurred to
no one.
And who can tell what other dis
coveries as simple and yet as far
reaching lie at the moment under
our very eyes? Progress, the fore
runner of every advancement made.
Stop progress and you clog the
wheels of the commercial world, re-
tard progress and you will ruin any
city, town or State. Progress is the
center-pole of the whole show. On
it's activity depends the life of the
nation. Our army and navy are
built upon the rock called Progress.
Our schools teach it, our ministers
preach it, politicians use it as staff
10 lean ON; it touches sympathetic
chord in every good citizens breast;
it makes better men and women OF
our boys and girls; it develops the
mind and strengthens our hopes. We
look, to progress as the safety-valve
to our future prosperity. To be
prosperous man is to be progress
sive man. Keep forging ahead; if
you fall down get up and start over
again. Men who have accomplished
the greatest achievements are men
who early in life fell down on the job
but got up again and looked progress
squarely in the face and tried again.
Rockefeller was poor boy sent
by his father to work in grocery
for his board, because he would not
work at home. He was sent to the
cellar to tier up some barrels that
were rolling about and he stuck a
croWbar in the ground and struck
oil, He saw an opportunity, took
advantage of it and you know the
rest. Progress did it and is doing it
today and is strong and vigorous
woEker. Old progress never gets
tired, is always busy and is always
in evidence. Where prosperity |
shows itself, old progress wants all
the live, wide-awake partners he
can get; will take you in so and SO
and remember when you are
helping yourself you are giving the
other fellow lift. Progress divides
up, we all get share, We all get a
benefit, and we all win. Progress
will win the war, progress will light
en- the hardships of our boys in the
trenches, and if you can read be-
tween the lines you will find prog !
ress stamped on every star and ev-
cry stripe on the star spangled ban
ner-and long may she wave with
progress aud liberty backed by an
indOmitable will power and deter
minatiOn to win or die in the at
tempt. Old Glory stands pre- eminent
as the American ideal of progress.

the public. This means that the prices for Munangwea garments though nec@sa.
ry higher than formerly, have not been raised in proportion to the increased cost Of
materials and production.
But even more important to on is the fact tina. the quality of each and egerv
Munsngwear garment has. been fully maintained You will find in Munsngwear

Many improvements in methods of
carrying on the business of the coun-
try await the construction of a system
of hard surfaced roads. Congressman
Edmund Plat of the state of New
York is an ardent supporter of the
proposition to establish motor mail
routes to the country districts near
cities. If the roads are good enough
to give the trucks a fair chance Mr..
Plat believes the proposed system
will prove of great value to both the
farmer and the consumer. 1t is pro-
posed to collect farm products from
small postoffices in the country, from
crossroads, and from the farms along
the road, and deliver them directly to
the consignees. thus eliminating the
expense of the middlemen and much
loss of time from producer to con-
sumner.

PROTEST LANDING
All-Siberian Soviet Committee
Wants Jap Withdrawal.
Japanese Interference q Step
Backward, They Say.


Moscow, April "a protest against
the landing of Japanese armed forces
at Vladivostok has been sent to the
Japanese consul there by commit
tee representing the all-Siberian So
viets. Copies of the protest have been
delivered to all other foreign consuls
in Vladivostok.
The protest says that the feeling
of indignation among the Russia
masses caused by the landing has been
intensified by the statement issued
by Admiral Kato. the japanese COM
mander. 1t is denied that Japanese
in Vladivostok are in danger and the
declaration is made that the landing is
an interference in domestic affairs.
The protest declares that the
Japanese interference is an openly re-
dictionary movement which threatens
relations between the Japanese and
Russian people. Deep friendship for
the laboring masses In japan and
other countries is expressed in the
protest which adds that they will I'M
doubtedly raise their voices 20 compel
the Japanese government to withdra W.

of Manchuria where General Semenoff,

REAPING THE wHIRLwIND.

The New Yorker Vo1kszeitung
quotes from the Deutsche Zeitung of
Berlin this, among similar statements:
sThe German imperial postoffice is a
very unsafe depository: there is hard
ly an honest commercial class in Ger
many. Profiteering flourishes worse
than ever. Every German is COM
PEELED to become a contrabandfst and
hoarder The whole people is from
top to bottom soiled with dishonesty
to such an extent that the judges in
the courts refuse to administer justice
because they themselves are conscious
of being culpable." Concluding. the
Deutsche zeitung asks how all this has
been made possible, and how Germany
is to become honest again.

tan Science Monitor. this journal

Selves
Lord Robert Cecil, in recent inter
Wew, made reference to the spread of
dishonesty and immortality generally
in Germany. Every class appears to
have lost all sense of restraint and
pays no attention to the patriotic ap-
peals or to government regulations
and orders. Everywhere profiteering
thieving, bribery and corruption are
rife. and every one is striving to make
a fortune at the expense of every one
else. Herr Polthaff, writing in Die
Hilfe, said: There is no one left in
Germany who. strictly speaking, has
not earned imprisonment" But what
can be expected from a people who
have grown up in the school of the
HohenZollernS?

WARNED ON AERO PLANS
Experts Told Officials Long Ago Not
To Expect Too Much.

Washington, April 10.-The testi-
mony taken by the senate in the aero
plane investigation shows that experts
of the highest reputation and expert
ence have since last July repeatedly
warned officials that perfecting of a
newly designed motor must inevita-
bly, involve many months of painstak-
ing experiment accompanied by many
setbacks and disa ppointments.
In spite of the unanimous testimony
of motor experts along this line gov
eminent officials having the manufac-
ture of the liberty motor in charge
have made the mistake of leading the
belief that many thousands of these
motors would be completed in the
spring of 1918.
The Minority Report.
Senator Shephard's minority report.
presented late today and signed by
himself and Senators Myers, of Mon
the minority believed the majority re-
port did not show "A proper estimate
of what is being accomplished or that
it is sufficiently complete to give an
accurate impression of the facts"
Praising the work of aviation Of
ficials. and declaring that the liberty
motor is a demonstrated success, the
minority report concluded:
"On the whole, the record of the
signal corps is one of which every
American can be justly proud. In
the face of unparalleled difficulty, it
is accomplishing an unparalleled task
with characteristic American energy,
capacity, patriotism and enthusiasm"

Heart and Beauty
Problems

Dear Mrs. Thompson: Lam twenty
one years old and would like to have
YOU give an opinion of a certain fell
low. \After going steady with one girl
for about two or three months, show
ing her the best time, taking her to
his home introducing her to his par
ents and doing everything he possibly
can for her and even tells her that he
loves her-after he gets her that far
he tires of her and quits coming to see
her ard doesn't tell her why.
Then he turns around and gets
another girl, talks about the first one
something terrible, does the same with
the second and also the third. I am
bad about it.
Then he turns around again and
tries very hard to get the first one
back again after he has hurt her and
the other ones.
Should 1 tell him what / think of
him or should 1 avoid him? 1 love
him and 1 want him back bit l don't
know what l should do. Please advise
me. A DISAPPOINTED ONE.
The boy is tickle and selfish and
not a gentleman or he would not talk
about the girls he has gone with.
Some people are very tickle by nature.
They can't help firing of one person
and wanting the companionship of
another. A boy who is tickle should
know his tendency and consider the
feelings of the girl more than his own
desire to be with her.
Do not have anything more to do
with the boy. After he has talked
about you he does not deserve any
future consideration Also do not tell
him what you think of him. That is
not necessary. If you refuse to renew
your friendship he will know what you
think without being told.
