WHAT'S NEEDED

Huge sums of money are indeed useful but
1T takes more than money to get men to work
effectively in trenches, fields, forests, mines
smpyards and factories. They must have the
right spirit Moreover, the important factor is
the amount of work which each one does This
depends largely on the spirit and will of us all.
Are we doing our part to get ourselves and our
friends into the right point of view?
The country with which we are at war fights
with the united determination of every person
within its borders. To win, we must do the
same Without this national spirit all our nat
ural resources will be of no avail.
We must stop thinking in terms of vast re-
sources and forms of wealth. We must realize
that victory depends upon you and me-not
only on our spirit, but also on our instilling
this spirit into others. We must interest
others in this war, what it means, and why it

People who are prejudiced against
eating muskrats should know, in the
first place, that these animals are not
rats at all, writes Rene Bache in the
Chicago Examiner. They are aquatic
creatures, as big as a small cat, and
feed on clean water plants.
Muskrats are found over most of
North America. They build winter
houses of. the roots and stems of wa
ter plants, which are usually heaped
on the bottom of a shallow pond until
the domelike top rises two or three
feet above the surface.
For the table they are game worthy
of the epicure, with a flavor somewhat
resembling that of wild duck. By some
it Is likened to the terrapin. The flesh
is dark red in color, fine-grained and
tender.

Prizes Go TO Humble PeonIe

One of the functions of the French
academy-more accurately the Acade-
my of Languages and Literature-is
its right to award a large number of
money prizes for literary merit and for
virtue" Since 1914 all the literary
prizes have been reserved to men serv-
ing with the colors. "Virtue" prizes
are awarded to humble people 'who
have lived pure and useful lives" sac
rificing the pursuit of all selfish aims
to the service of their families or their
country.

A short time ago General Leonard Wood
spoke at Kansas City In the course of his talk
he said:
1t is not our money that will win; it is not
our foods alone. 1t is the conservation of
every American to the cause of his country.
coupled with an honest desire to get ready
quickly so that we may strike without further
delay"
We must make up our minds that there is no
short cut to victory We must not depend on
the very small chance that some hitherto I'M
known citizen will suddenly invent some en-
CINE OF destruction which will bring sudden
defeat to the Germans. Chemical laboratories
aeroplanes, submarine destroyers, farmers mu-
milton and ship workers-none of these will
alone win the war. 1t must be won by the
united efforts of all of U.S.

Gas Mantle Tip.

Old gas nantes should never be
thrown away. Collect the powder
carefully and keep in small box. 1t
is unsurpassed for cleaning gold, sill
yer and aluminium. If occasionally
rubbed on the nickel of the stove it
keeps it wonderfully bright. 1t is also
useful for whitening the teeth. A
gold ring which had been touched with
mercury was instantly restored TO its
proper color by being rubbed with this
useful powder.

When Sailors Are seaaIok.

According to the surgeon general Of
the navy, "a certain proportion of re-
cruits are never seasick even at the
outset of their career. but large pro-
portion of them do suffer from this
affection for a few days when first
going to sea-" While most of the men
acquire the sea habit" there are
few in whom the discomfort from sea-
sickness is so extreme as to preclude
the performance of duty even after
prolonged cruising. These cases have
to be discharged. The number of dis
charges for this disability averages
seven or eight a year.
