We now have sixteen great canton
ments, each capable of housing. feed
ing and caring for $1,000 men, besides
the fifteen camps in which the nation
al guards were at first housed. Each
cantonment has 1,400 separate build
ings. In all more than $4,000 Duild-
ings have been constructed at a cost
of about s136, 100000. More than
650,OO0,O00 feet of lumber was used
and $4,000 carloads of material and
furnishings. When the war is over
we will have ready at hand all the
facilities for inaugurating a system of
universal military training. 1t would
be folly to permit all this great prop
erty to be junked.

LOOKING BACKWARD.

One hundred and forty-two years
ago today. little group of men that
had assembled in Philadelphia pro-
mulgated, in the American Declare
ton of Independence. new political
doctrine. the outstanding principles OF
which were that a people has the right
to determine its own plan Of existence
History records no previous similar &C.
ton on the part of any body of citi-
zens.
Nations had rebelled, deposed their
rulers and set up forms of popular
government, but their action had
never been proclaimed as an inalien-
able right. It had been based rather
upon a desire to escape from intoler-
able oppression. When the American
colonies declared their independence
of British rule they challenged the
mother country to contest over 4
principle and that principle was estab-
lished by force of arms.
The seeds sown on that day devel-
oped and grew into a thriving plant,
bore fruit, the germs of which soon
found Judgment in nearly every couu-
try on the American continent.
The doctrine of the inalienable right
OF self government continued for a
long time to be regarded as one Pc
euliar to America but slowly it began
to take root in Europe.
The war, and especially our part in
it. has given the principles enunciated
in 1876 Judgment in every civilized
nation in the world and the leaders
among them now are fighting for the
same principle for which our fore
fathers fought in the latter part OF
the eighteenth century.
Truly we have reason to celebrate
this day.

HEART AND BEAUTY
PROBLEMS
By MRS. ELIZABETH THOMPSON.

Dear Mrs. Thompson: l am a girl
of FL. Three years ago 1 met a young
man. We liked each other very much
and went around together a great deal.
He had to move from town and we
have corresponded ever since. Altho
he was in town SO long he never said
anything of love. but seemed to think
understood his actions. He is a very
nice. reliable. steady-going man.
Ten months ago 1 met a nice young
soldier in town. Now / see him often
l like him much better than the other.
He has told me that he loves me and
asked me to marry him. L have met
some of his people and they are very
kind
My parents approve of the first and
wish me to marry him, but 1 do not
love him.
The soldier is not as reliable as the
other and is expecting to leave soon
in fact before this month is over. My
parents do not approve of him, but
give no reason. He wishes to marry
me before he leaves. 1 do love him.
Don't you think I am old enough
to decide for myself? BILLY.
You are old enough tic decide. for
yourself, but in SO important a matter
you should not make a hasty decision.
Perhaps your parents do not know
why lHey 90 Iul ike the lIty
feel instinctively that he will not be a
good husband for you. Instincts are
pretty reliable and their dislike for
him may be well grounded. If he
loves you he will wait for you until
after the war. Do not marry him I'M
til then.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am a young
girl about 81. 1 have a young man
who is now in the army. He left
here about a year ago and 1 have
been writing to him ever since. We
were engaged before he left Now he
is going to France. Do you think il
would be all right for US to break our
engagement until after the war Is
over? There is another fellow 1 like
very much as a friend and I would
like to have good time with him..
G.. B. w.
Break the engagement permanent
ly- You cannot love the boy as you
should or you would not think of
breaking your engagement. But It IL
only natural that you should want to
enjoy yourself as much as possible
until the war is over. If your fiance
is willing it would be all right to 20
with the other boy without breaking
your engagement and far more hon.
orable because the boy would under.
stand the situation and would not 70
| with you with the view of winning
| you.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: am a Young
girl and have just moved here.
want to get acquainted with some girls
here. How shall do it? FL
Go to church or Sunday school and
| church socials and 5oin the Young
Womens Christian association.

within the next few months to make
some experiments in rabbit-raising
and give every possible assistance to
persons interested in raising and
shipping rabbits to city markets.
This is already proving extremely
profitable. A man in Kansas who has
been sending rabbit meat to the east
ern markets. wrapped in oiled paper
and securely packed in wooden boxes.
is now taking up the matter of rabbit
skins as a by-product. He is shipping
a steady supply of skins to hat-manu-
facturers.
Pathological survey recommends
poison as the best method of killing
rabbits for commercial purposes, al
tho this method is impossible, of
course,- when the animal is also to be
used for food. The most efficacious
poison is strychnine, which should be
placed in pieces of apple or melon rind
and placed at intervals along rabbit
paths or runs. Care should be taken
not to place the poisoned bait where
children and domestic animals might
get it. For this reason it is better
to use the poison method only in win
ter when cattle and horses are not SO
likely to come across it. For hat
making the poisoned skin Is preferred,
since shot usually tears the skin and
renders it useless.
For years. efforts have been made
to establish market for rabbit skins
especially Jack-rabbit skins. Such
a market has at last been contributed
by American matters; it Is now up to
tthe citizens of the west and middle
west to maintain it, not only as a per-
sonal duty but as a duty to the whole
of American rabbit skins, may have
to go hatless

TRAVELETTE
KidWeuY.
BY NIKSAH

AlO"CAys
Kidwelly is a quaint old town in
Wales. 1t is a dreamy little commu-
nifty set in snugly between broad
marshes and Carmarthen bay. and di-
vided by a curving river with an un-
pronounceable Welsh name. Old Kid
welly lives largely in the past. It has
been the scene IF battles and sieges.
It has castle whose turretS and
round towers still stand bravely, their
age kindly hidden by the vines that
enfold them.
1t pretends to remember well the
occasion of the Welsh princess who
stormed the town at the head of her
army. It tells the story proudly. a
little sadly at the end, for the war
rior princess was executed by her enS
mics.
1t is a dusty, unromantic climb to
the battlements, but the view from the
castle top is worth the trip. The
quaint, tumbledown houses at the
foot of the walls are a mere skeleton
of the old town as it was in its prime
Beyond them are marshy fields rolling
away to the next village. Far below
is the river once thronged with ships
of trade that long ago deserted it for
richer ports. Its streets are almost
empty, and it's old-fashioned resi-
dences, prfmly oblivious to new i'm
provements and styles of architecture,
testify loudly to its age.

Our government is preparing to
float a fourth liberty loan in October
and it promises to be larger in amount
than any that has preceded it. The
Importance of money in the war was
recognized by David Lloyd George
when in September, 1914, he said:
I'm my judgment the last few hun
bred millions may win this war. The
first hundred millions our enemies can
stand just as well as we can; but the
last hundred millions they cannot,
thank God. Therefore, think that
cash is going to count more than. pos
sibly. we imagine at the present time.
We are fighting a very tough enemy
who is well prepared. He will prob
ably fight to the very end before he
will accept the only conditions upon
which we can possibly make peace.
That is where our resources will come
in. not merely of men but of cash.
We have won with silver bullets be-
fore. We financed Europe in the
greatest war ever fought and that il
what wor." It may devolve upon the
United States to furnish those last
few hundred millions. Let us be pre-
pared, every one. to do his part.

The State Journal is in receipt Of an
anonymous communication in which
the writer expresses the fear that
power in the United States is rapid
ly drifting away from the masses and
into the hands of the classes" There
is no cause for worry. In this country
the people give and the people take
away. The masses have just as great
power as ever they had. They have
the ballot, a power which has been en-
HANGED in recent years by removal of
the possibility of manipulating the re-
turns. The people are not alarmed
over the unusual extent to which pow
err has been delegated, since our entry
into the war. They know that they
can recall that power whenever they
choose to do so. Just now President
Wilson is entrusted with gre1ter pow
or than tn held by any other man
i, the civilized tons of the world.
Congress can take the most of it away
from Kim in an hour and the people
eject the 0ngress. Rule by the Jew
is not open to serious objection so long
as it is right and just. When it ceases
to measure up to popular stande IDS,
the masses have their remedy and
they will not be slow to use it.
