Clarence ]. Blocnker OF St. Louis,
Missouri. writes. II have a pair OF
shoes with Neolin Soles and have used
them for two years. ! think they will
last another six months"
MIR. Bloenker also recommends
Neolin Soles for their comfort and
waterproofness.
1t is a remarkable fact that Neolin
Solos cost no more than Others that
give only ordinary wear. You can
get them on new shoes in many styles
for men. women. and children--and
they are available everywhere for re-
solng. too.
And look at the money you save
because you need fewer pairs of shoes
with Nechn Soles. Remember--these
soles are made by Science to be espe-
cially tough and durable. They are
manufactured by The Goodyear Tire
& Rubber Co. of Akron. Ohio. who also
make Wingloot Hecls--guaranteed to
outwcar any other heels.

The Battle of Fort Sill

Mother dear, here's your soldier bold.
He wears silver stripes instead Of gold,
For he went to fight at old Fort Sill,
A Hun he meant to kill.
But. my darling mother, do not weep,
For your sonny dear did not have
cold feet,
Eor he simp,y did - he was told, G
And now he wears silver stripes instead
Of gold.
He was at Waco and Sill with squadron
Where often on Sunday, he would do
TX. p"
And peel those raw onions until he would
cry
With the determination to do or die.
For France he had longed many time,
To be among the boys on the Rhine.
Thought he would like cross for river,
With stripes Of gold instead of silver.
Now that the war is over, over there,
Your sonny dear does not care
For he fought bravely through the battle
of Fort Sill,
And never did so much as to venture
f-Over the Hill"
His memories viii be Of old Fort Sill
And those many months spent in the mill,
Where he went to the hospital on sick
call
And was given c. c. pills for what ails US
all. i
ALI this is SO sad, my darling mother,
Why could it not have happened other?
If your son had gone across to France,
For those gold stripes to take chance.
Now, that he is coming back to you,
Fresh and pure as the morning dew,
The only difference in your son so bold
s that he wears silver stripes instead of |
gold.

Extravaganza Saved
Democracy

1t was Americas extravaganza,
that enabled her to win the war il
such astounding fashion.
If America hadn't been tht
most extravagant nation in the
world, the wasteful nation eco.
nomically, she would never have
been able to Guido the other ma
tions as she did in the matter of
wartime production.
But it was not by continuing
this extravaganza that she was
able to bring this power to bear
upon the problem on hand. II
was by cutting the extrava-
gance out.
America had, for example. an
extravagant system of railroads
so far as peace-tirne demands
were concerned. There was much
duplication of service. There were
failures to cooperate that made
if impossible to bring the full
power of the railroads to carry
the load and the transportation
system threatened to break down,
even though it was bigger than
the peace-time needs. The Gov
eminent took hold, Strengthened
out the conflicts and got the whole
railroad system Of the country
carrying the load. 1t did the bus
mess and this is just as much an
argument for private ownership
of railroads as it is for Govern
ment control in time of emergen-
cy.
Taking extravaganza out of the
railroads enabled them to come
up to the mark. But extravagance
had to be there in the first place
or the removal of it could have
added nothing to the power of
the railroad system. Extravaganza
helped win the war.
America had to reduce its ex-
travagant standard of living to
beat the kaiser. She never had
to reduce it to the danger point.
The reduction of this standard
was brought about by the pur-
chase of Liberty Bonds by the
people. Money was saved and
lent to the Government. Little
Injuries were sacrificed. There
were wasteful things that people
did not do because they had
bought or were buying Liberty I
Bonds.
The time for sacrifice is not yet S
over in this respect. The busi-
ness of saving saving those things 2
that we have wasted must 90 on
4 little while to make secure that
which victory has placed in our
hand. There must be the pur-
chase Of more Liberty Bonds, but E
what Joy it will be TO make this !
title sacrifice, now that the terri
