"GOLDEN BOOK"
AS MEMORIAL TO
FALLEN HEROES
Would Comprise 500 Best
War Letters from Ameri-
can Soldiers

Widespread interest has devel-
oped in a suggestion made by Otto
H. Kahn that a book, comprising
500 of the best war letters from
American soldiers and seamen in
the world war, be compiled to be-
speak the American spirit in the
war.
In making the suggestions Mr..
Kahn said:
"The book of American glory
contains no nobler pages than
those which record the superb
heroism of our fighting men in the
war now so happily concluded and
the passion of patriotic devotion
which everywhere exalted the men
and women Of many races who
make up America.
"We have seen humanity at it's
highest and greatest. We may not
indulge the hope that we shall be
able permanently to maintain our
selves at the level of thought, feel
ing and action to which we were
lifted by the force of lofty in
spiration.
! "I have had occasion to read
numerous letters written by Off
GERS and men of our army. from
their cantonments here an d
abroad, from the steamships which
carried them to Europe, from hos
pitals and from the firing lines.
Those letters bear the stamp and
impress of great time. They are
touched with a great spirit. Some
of them in their sentiment, their
views and their expressions are of
exalted and touching beauty.
"The boys who wrote them were
on their way to look death in the
face or had just come from en-
countering him without fiinching.
They saw things differently from
what they had even seen them be-
fore or will ever see them again.
All the pettiness, the make believe,
the conventionalities of existense,
had fallen away. They recognized
true meanings, true values and
true proportions. They were lifted
out of and above themselves.
Things were revealed to them.
They struck depths, they found
! words, they rose to heights which
were not accessible to them before,
and probably will not be accessible
to them again.
"My suggestion is that nation
| al committee be constituted, COM
posed of a small number of dis
: tinguished and eminently qualified
men. This committee would invite
) those who have received soldiers
letters which they believe to be
, noteworthy in the sense | have
t tried to indicate, to send such let,
> ters or copies of them to subcom
= mittees designated for each state
=. "a selection would then bi
r made, of say FIVE hundred letters
E and these would be published in {
/ volume, the proceeds from the salt
of which would go to some suitable
Newark post., 1919-02-12

purpose commemorative of the
war.
Such a volume--a golden book
in truth--would be a fitting mem
orial for our noble dead and an
inspiration and a solemn admoni-
tion for those now living and for
generations who will come after
them"

London Papers Praise
Wilson's Boston Speech

London, Feb. 26 London newspapers
generally were unstinting in their
praise of President Wilson S speech at
Boston.
The Post was the only newspaper
which attempted to throw cold water
on the address,
HWe tried, not with complete sue
cess to blow the foam off the divine
breaker Of eloquence with which Pre-
sident Wilson refreshed the dry city
of Boston, said the Post.
Other newspapers commented as fol-
lows:
Daily News: 1'Egery pacific interest
in Europe is with President Wilson in
his appeal to his people. We do not
think the appeal will be in vain"
Mail: president Wilson appealed to
the best instincts of his countrymen.
The alternative of the United States
returning to its isolation is unhink
able.'
Chronicle: eff President Wilson sue
ceeds in carrying his people with him
in this crusade, he will have rendered
his second great service to mankind
as great as that Of bringing the United
States into the war;"

Days Before Special June
Election To Vote.

The voting machine is not buried
relic, even if the original bill provid
ing for such was passed in 1913 and
not found of special practical value

tion of state board of examiners for

gray diagers, or to buy poison to pro-
duee the proper effect on such, in
lbill passed by the house. The levy is
to begin this year. Sealps are to be re-
deemed at The rate Of five cents each.
lThe bill reads authorized, directed
land empowered to levy the one tenth

thing over $4,000 for scalps.
! Tho doctors in the house had intro
duced a bill that threatened to inter

although on its face the bill appeared
quite innocent. About the same time

the practice Of naturopaths, or naturo-
Epafhy. The naturopathy bill had been
laid on the table but its friends were
lnsistent On its passage, claiming that
in years past, every time new drug

opath bill from passing, it was finally
agreed to withdraw all bills interfering
with those using drugless methods and
other practices Hence there may be

with but few farmers wanting them.
But in the middle of July the demand
for women farm laborers was far
ahead of the supply and never caught
up until the season ended.
Through the activities of the women
farm labor specialists, 1928 women
were placed on farms. The greater
majority of these were placed in New
York state.
The women were especially recruit
ed from among college girls, teachers.
business women seeking change of en-
ployment or on vacation, and from
the leisure classes. The number OF
industrial workers sent out was COM
paratively small. Farm labor proved
to be particularly attractive for school
teachers, several hundred of them be-
ing recruited. Some of the units were
composed entirely of college or high
school girls. One of the units was
made up entirely of girls belonging
to the same fraternity.

work every day it seems to me that
you ought to be able to do housework.
especially II you had help for the
heavier work or some of the new de-
vices for making work easier. The
saying is true that no house is big
enough for two families. The money
you have earned ought to be enough
to pay for any help you might need.
The strain Of living under the condi-
tons you do does not tend to improve
your health.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: Last summer
I fell in love with one of my class
mates. l went several places with him
until he went to the mountains. After
he left he wrote to me several times.
l finally got tired of writing to him.
Then when he came back wanted to
be friends again, but Of course he was
ter. Can you tell me what to do to
get him to like me? x. Y. 2.
The best you can do Is to speak to
the boy in friendly way when you
meet. If he insists upon being angry,
you will have to let him be.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: I have been
corresponding with a boy for some
time. A while ago I let one of my
girl friends read one of his letters
and he got angry. Can you tell me
what to do? This girl used to go with
the same boy a long time ago and she
was jealous of me. So she read his
letter and then told him that let any
one who wanted to read them. Please
inform me what to do to get him to
like me again.
BLUE EYES.
OF course you have apologized to
the boy. He may never care to be
friendly again. But this experience
was worth while, because it has
taught you lesson. Never again let
people read your personal letters.
Dear Mrs Thompson: Cd How long
should girl wear an engagement ring
before she is married?
ca II girl Is engaged is it all
right for her to hold on to the arm of
the boy to whom she is engaged?
60 Do you think a girl loves boy
if she is not little jealous of him
DOT.
G) A girl can wear an engagement
ring from the time she is engaged
until she is married or the engage
mert is broken.
(2) She has the right, but it looks
better nowadays for the man to take
the girls arm.
60 Yes girl can love without be-
ing jealous. Her faith is too great to
permit jealousy.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am young
man "a years old and l have been
going with a young girl for six months
Last Sunday evening l met her girl
friend with whom l fell in love. In
fact l never saw girl who suited
me as she does. Last Monday l met
her on my way home from work and
I asked her If could come to see
her the next Sunday and she acted as
if she was surprised and said she
couldn't accept the date as that would
be unfair to her friend.
How can l drop my former friend
without hurting her feelings? How
can l win the love of the other?
A WORRIED YOUNG MAN.
If you are sure you don't love the
first young girl you should drop her.
You probably do still love her but
you are infatuated with the girls
friend for the time being and your
love will return for the first girl. You
should stay with the first girl by all
means.
