indifference to their present happiness
and future welfare.
There is a whole sermon and an elo-.
quent one too, in the following verses
from the pen of that gifted young
writer, Edgar A. Guest of Detroit, and
published in his recent book, "Heap o.
Livin' - by the Reilly & Britton Co.
Read il over and over. Think about
it and assimilate tn eplain yet beau
tiful thoughts and suggestions in every
line. Then if you are a father, and
do not get broader and more com
prehensive aspect Of what there is to
live for, you have outlived your use
fulness and are ready to "shuffle of
this mortal coil.'
Be more than his dad,
BE a chum to the lad;
Be a part Of his life
Every hour of the day;
Find time to talk with him,
Take time to walk with him,
Share in his studies
And share in his play;
Take him to places,
To ball games and races,
Teach him the things
That you want him TO know;
Don Z live apart from him,
Don Z keep your heart from him,
Be his best comrade
He's needing you so.
Never neglect him.
Though young, still respect him,
Hear his opinions
With patience and pride;
Show him his error,
But be not terror,
-visaged and fearful,
When he's at your side.
Know what his thoughts are,
Know what his sports are,
Know all his playmates,
It's easy to learn to
Be such a father
That when troubles gather
You III be the first one
For counsel, he III turn TO.
You can inspire him
With courage. and fire him
Hot with ambition
For deeds that are good;
He III not betray you
Nor lily repay you,
If you have taught him
The things that you should
Father and son
Must in all things be one
Partners in trouble
And comrades in JOY.
More than a dad
Was the best pay you had;
Be such a chum
As you knew, to your boy

THRIFT DAY IS
BEING OBSERVED
IN EVERY STATE
Sign Pledges for
$5O0,OOO,O0O Worth Of
Stamps in 2 Weeks.

Washington, June 28.---The inten-
sive nationwide campaign for the
purchase Of war savings and thrift
stamps closes today with the observ-
ance, of National Thrift day, set aside
by President Wilson for the final
drive. EVERY true patriot was called
upon by Secretary McAdoo to join
"the army of war savers before the
day Closes"
In virtually all states the day was
observed. governors having proclaimed
| it special occasion to impress upon
the people the virtues of thrift.
The American people during the last
two weeks have signed pledges for
the purchase of more than $500, 900, 900
worth of stamps. Officials believe the
final canvass today will cause the
amount to be doubled. Reports re-
ceived at war savings headquarters
here shows that the total sales OF
stamps have so far been about $500,
100000, which is less than had been
hoped for.
In special appeal today Secretary
McAdoo said:
THE fighting power Of the nation
will be strengthened more by saving
than by any other thing, and it is the
one thing that every patriot can do
Money saved means labor and mate
rails saved and transmitted into ire
sistfble and victorious force against
the enemies of America and the
world"

JAMES SULLIVAN ARRESTED
AS DESERTER FROM ARMY

Accused of evading the draft on
three separate occasions, although ex-
empted by the provisions of the Sc
lective Service law, James Sullivan,
aged % years and residing at North
field, has been taken into custody at
Philadelphia, according to report re-
ceived here yesterday. Sullivan re-
sided with his wife and two young
children in New York when the Selec-
tive Draft was adopted, and came to
Mortified soon afterwards. He had
registered in New York, but came to
Atlantic County before he was sum-
moned to appear before the draft
board.
Soon afterwards he left Mortified,
telling his wife, it is alleged, that he
had been called to New York by the
draft officials. A few days later a let
ter arrived from the officials, and in
v%estigation begun by his wife resulted
in the disclosure that he had abandon
ed her and the children. He was next
heard from in Philadelphia, where he
had enlisted in the army. After a
brief period he was given a furlough
and is alleged to have deserted. 1t
was for the latter charge that he was
arrested in Philadelphia.
