WHY DISCONTINUE THE STUDY
 OF GERMANY

UT TLhNA4N "
 The action of some school author ities in excluding the study of Ger man strikes us as rather a short sighted policy; enc that will inure to the benefit of Germany and the det- riment of the United States in the trade war that will follow the re-es- tablishment of peace.
 We will not strengthen ourselves by failure to acquire knowledge of the language of people we must meet in competition, and who must be closely watched.
 It would be advisable to change the textbooks, eliminating therefrom all things tending to instill ideas of Ger man superiority, or hold up the kas- CT as a hero and Prussian government methods as ideal, but no advantage is to be obtained by permitting child ren to remain in ignorance of German We want to be as well prepared, as we'll equipped as any people, and this we can be only by familiarizing our selves in all customs, arts, methods and tactics used by others. Spanish and German should bt taught in the schools, because Amer 1 jeans will have need for knowledge O. these languages.

Warns Women Against Cutting Corns and Says They Lift
 Right Out.

Because style decrees that women crowd and buckle their tender toes in high heel footwear they suffer from corns, then they cut and trim at these painful pests which merely makes the corn grow hard. This suicidal habit may cause lockjaw and women are warned to stop it.
 A few drops of a drug called freez- one applied directly upon sore corn gives quick relief and soon the entire corn, root and all, lift out without pain. Ask the drug store man for a quarter of an ounce of freezone which costs very little but is sufficient to re- move every hard or soft corn or callus from ones feet.
 This drug is gummy but it dries in moment and simply shrivels up the corn without inflaming or even irri- tating the surrounding tissue or skin. |-Advt.

Gradually the hue and cry against "non-essentials" is dying out. There seems to be a general impression that in this, like in everything else, "wa- ter finds it's own level' and such non- essentials the making of which stand in the way of the making of essen tials will naturally have to go, while those non-essentials which do not interfere with the essentials will not have to go.
 Of course, there is school of econ cmy which purports to teach that non essentials and the making thereof compete with essentials and their making. Every dollar spent for a nonessential. this school asserts helps the kaiser.
 A remarkable doctrine, surely, and one branding millions of Americans if not all Americans-as kaiser-help- CTS!
 But there is another and a more reasonable school which says that con servaton and use of nations ccc- homie and financial strength depends largely upon as little disturbance as possible. As great part of our ln' dustrial fabric has been dependent up on the making of so-called nen-essen tials, it follows that their financial sup port in the war can only be expected if they have the wherewithal to yield such support.
 A broken-up smashed, disorganlzed industry cannot support the govern ment much; neither can it's workers nor the business men who deal in its goods.
 In other words, create an industrial Or business panic, and note how Lib erty bonds will sell
 National strength. therefore, de- pending to great extent upon eco homie strength, it is clear that any thing which impairs this strength Is a detriment to the country.
 The "kll trade" policy of conducting the war is rapidly slipping into abliv' ion.
 The 'let trade alone' policy makes for strength ill the long run. A dollar spent for some alleged nonessentlal or the nickel spent for non-essentia

Perhaps one reason why so-called

 and the president of France, but if you will excuse us, Lord, to hell with the kaiser" That's the kind of language from
 the mouth of religious teacher, that gets in the paper. The Rev. Waters
 prayer hit the wires and was tcle-
 graphd all over the country. Also, these evangeists believe in ad- vertising.
