Returned to His Allegiance.

Since the war broke out my
boys, five rnd eight years Of age,
have done nothing but talk or
play war. One day with four
other little fellows they decided
to play war, insisting that my
youngest boy be on the German
side. After much arguing and
crying and yet afraid to break up
the game he finally decided to be
a German. Each side took their
places, supposedly behind the
trenches. When the call came to
fire the little fellow turned and
fired at one of his own men. The
older one seeing this yelled: "You
can't down one of your own
men," when defiantly he replied:
Jaw. Pm turned traitor; Pm an
American. "-Exchange.

Hon. H. G. Cottle,
West Liberty, KY.
Dear Editor:
Will write you a few lines to
let you know that am still liv.
ing and liking the army fine.
l have been receiving the Lick.
ing Valley Courier regularly and
am glad to get it as it better than
a letter, for it gives US all the
news. 1t is a sight to see the
boys gather around to get the
home news.
Also, | wish to express to you,
on the part of the Morgan county
boys here, our fullest apprecia,
ton of the patriotic part your pa
per is doing in our home county,
and we feel you are doing youi
duty in helping, if not causing,
the patriotic wave that is just
getting in full swing in old Nor
gan. You all have certainly gone
over the top, as we will in the
next few months. And we will
go knowing that the people Of
old Morgan have done their bit.
Well, we were quite shocked at
receiving an order from the War
Department that Camp Taylor
was converted into an artillery
camp, and all of the infantry
units will leave here for Chill
cothe, Ohio, to be housed at Camp
Sherman. We will remain under
the command of Gen. Harry C.
Hale, who will become Comman-
der at Camp Sherman. There
are 2.700 Of US to be moved. and
it will take over 500 railroad cars
to carry us. We don't know just
when we will start, but we have
everything ready and will go be-
fore the fifth of June. So send
my paper to this address:

man, Chilicothe, O.

Store Painted Yellow.

j. O. Kash, formerly of this
county but now a prominent mer-
chant of Parker, Kansas, had the
front of his store painted yellow
and the words Stacker" and
coward" painted on the glass a
short time since by indignant
citizens.
1t is said that Mr.. Kash had
been repeatedly solicited to con-
tribute to the Red Cross and Y.
M. G. A., but had contributed
very little. He had bought no
Liberty Bonds, and when solicit
ed to do so informed the solicitors
that when he got ready to buy
bonds he would do so without be-
ing solicited. When the State
Guard was being organized in
that town he signed his name to
the list, but added, For local
work only, "and by so doing dis
qualified himself for that branch
of the service.
In the same paper from which
the above facts are CLEANED, Kash
had an article announcing his in

BELIEF OF SUFFRAGISTS
Eight Years Struggle in City Re.

stein, Secretary

Women suffragists throughout Pennsylva-
MIA feel they approaching their goal.
After fight which began nearly fifty years
ago. they are confident of victory.
The first headquarters for woman suffrage
in Philadelphia was organized in 1910. Miss
Caroline katzenstein, now secretary of Phila-
delphia branch of the National Woman's
party, headed this band of pioneers. The
work was of a nature. she says. to discour-
age completely any but the boldest hearted
and those who believed firmly in the justice
and necessity of the cause
These women tried to awaken other women
throughout the State. and by dint of speak
ing street corners and in factories at
noon. winning advertisement for the cause
with bitter sacrifices, they managed slowly
to stir up universal interest In it, along
with nearly universal opposition.
In England said Miss Katzensten
there was militantism. | was always OPP
posed to it, but did take the trouble to try
to understand 1t. one day a little English
woman. pretty, gentle of voice, a lady to
the tips of her fingers came into my Office.
1t developed that this charming little crea-
ture was not only firm believer in militant
ism, but an active practcer of it, 1t was
like having a kitten suddenly open its mouth
and roar like a lion.
But she explained it to me. 1t was the
only way to rouse the English people They
had to break through the numbing silence
and indifference and get their message out.
The idea naturally got out with their mes
sage that n vertable horde of terma ga nts
was about to descend upon the earth, wreck
ing homes, bullying men-no idea was too
grotesque.
why, it was said. they were hurlng
bombs, destroying life and property. As a
matter of fact, the bombs. like the revolvers
of melodrama. weren't loaded.
I'VE American women find it hard to un-
derstand or to excuse the seeming unwoman-
liness of those very brave women. They
broke windows because, in England, to break
window is simply custom of registering
public protest. The little lady ! was speak
ing of said that before she broke a window

The suffragsts here basng their work.

b. Anthony in 1869, have been pushing on
steadily. In few nations has good-natured
and infexible opposition been so great
Among the women, opposition has come
chiefly from the rich, happy, contented
women, who, having need of the vote,
nevertheless have taken the selfish trouble
to try TO keep 1t from women who have a
vital need for II. They are women who do

consideration. Opposition to equal suffrage
means opposition to democracy
