WOULD HAVE GIVEN
THEIR LIVES FOR THE FLAG

The Chicago Tribune we'll says that
'To the men who have gone through
the trial of battle we give our thanks
and admiration, but we must also real
ize that the men who did not get
across were ready and would also have
given themselves to the glory Of the
flag and the success of our cause"
The finest tribute to these disappoint-
ed soldiers we have seen was paid in
the following official communication in
the North American Reviews War
Weekly:
/. In the performance of mill
tary duty to ones country in time
called to the colors to select the
kind of service to be done by him.
One who has willingly and loyalty
responded to the call to arms ana
who has put his best efforts, men
tai and physical, into the training,
and performed all military duties
required of him to the best of his
ability, standing ready always to
make the supreme sacrifice of life
itself, if need be, has done all that
a good citizen and soldier could do
to insure the successful prosecution
of the war.
2 Altho l appreciate how keenly
you feel the disappointment of your
failure to secure duty overseas in
the actual battle area, l know you
rejoice, together with all Ameri-
cans, in the prospect of a righteous
and just peace imposed upon the
enemy and the termination of the
terrible conflict which has involved
the whole civilized world. You have
done your best. You have cheerful
ly and loyalty discharged the clear
duty of every citi,. in time of war
and your work hs been part of the
great national eff which has aid
ed in securing a victorious peace.
8. You are ischarged from the
army because your services are no
longer required in the present emer-
.gency. You will return to your
place in civil life all the better for
the training you have had, and
feel sure you will take with you a
better and higl CT appreciation OF
the obligations Of citizenship, in
cluding the obligation of every man
to be trained. prepared and ready
to render service to the nation in
war as we'll rs in peace.
It bore the signature OF Major
General Leonard Wood-still major
general who trained the two divi-
sions pronounced by foreign officers
the most effective. and who himself
was brutally cheated out of his
clear right to command at least his
own devoted soldiers abroad.

ADJUSTMENTS.
Hawaiian Singers.

One of the most pleasing attrac-
lions playing the Grand recently was
Kohoano's native Hawaiian singers,
players and dancers. They appeared
at the Grand on May % and packed
the theater for three performances.
Mr. G. w Pughe is manager and has
four of the best Hawaiian organiza-
tions in this country, playing the big
chautauqua circuits. The manage
ment of the Grand was fortunate in
securing the best one of the four
companies for tomorrow night. There
will be three complete concerts,
starting at Gas, s and 9:45. Take a
tip: Come early or line up, as they
did for the first engagement.
You will delight in the atmosphere
of the far-off island, the wave
washed shores of Waikiki, the plain
tive music Of the uieleles; it mingles
with the dreamy, melodious voices Of
the natives, stirs the imagination to
delightful heights, and one is seem
ingly transported to that far-away
Jewel Of the Pacific-Hawaii, the
land Of music and flowers. Each OF
the Hawaiians is an artist-all
Hawaiians are musicians.

Where Do the People Come In?

Cedar Rapids Gazette: First the
government investigates the, packers
because of the high prices of meats.
Then it announces that two hundred
and sixty-four million pounds of meat
purchased for the army and navy
and no longer needed will be sold for
export because If it were sold at
home it would Seriously affect prices
on both canned and fresh meats"
What hold have the packers on the
government? Why should the people
be refused the opportunity to derive
benefit from the sale of. meats which
their money, paid in taxes and Tor
Liberty bonds, has bought? why
should the packers be protected at
the expense of the people? why
should the poor go half-nourished be-
cause the wealth of the packing in
dustry must not be endangered!
The government admits that 1t was
because the representatives of the
packing industry strongly advised
that all of this stock be disposed OF
for export" that that is just what is
being done.
We shall go on paying fifty or six
tr cents a pound for thirty-cent meat
because the packers have told the
administration that they should not
be molested by flooding of the peo.
pies market with the peoples meat,
bought with the peoples money.
For the love of heaven, where do
the people come in, anyway?
