There will be prohibition on several things be-
sides the inebriating cup after July 1. For in
stance our own private little "prohib" is to re
frain from printing anything that in any way
savors of advertising for less than our usual
advertising rates. Even the things that "The
government will appreciate if you will publish in
your valuable paper, but this must be done gra-
tuitously as there is no fund appropriated for
paying for it" are strictly barred. During war
times we were looking after Uncle Sans interests
pretty lively-and now we are looking after our
own at the same rate of speed. This isn't sug-
gestion-it is an ultimatum Our waste basket
has become one of the most useful adjuncts of our
work.

ADVICE TO ONE SEEKING WORK.
BY Rudyard Kipling.

If you stop to find out what your wages will be
And how they will clothe and feed you,
Willie, my son, don't you go on The Sea,
For the Sea will never need you.
If you ask for the reason of every command
And argue with people about you,
Willie, my son, don't you go the Land,
For the Land will do better without you.
If you stop to consider The work you have done
And to boast what your labor is worth, dear,
Angels may come for you, Willie, my son,
But you'll never be wanted on Earth, dear.

After all man needn't go outside his own home
to find substitute for the saloon. That may
not sound complimentary to the home but when
one considers the time and money and apprecia-
ton some men have showered upon the saloons he
realizes that that which is takes it's place in the
affection of him who frequents it must be at
tractive, social and satisfying. If the home isn't
all of these things, what's the matter with it !?

no such things as patriotic mob for those who
act in violation of the laws of the land are any

occasions and there is neither reason, sense, or

If fellow clad in khaki,
Olive drab, or sailors blue
Walks in and asks to see The Boss
And The Boss, of course, is you;
If fellow clad in khaki,
Olive drab, or sailor blue
Walks in and asks you for job
What are you going to do?
Put him on?
He's the fellow, please remember,
When the Huns knocked at our door,
To whom you prayed with fervor:
"Keep the Germans from our shore!"
He's the fellow-oh,, remember!-
Who, knee-deep in mud and gore,
Gave your prayer happy answer,
Made your hearthstone safe once more;
Put him on!
When he marched away you cheered him;
Have you cheered him coming back?
Have you given him welcome
Since he laid down gun and pack?
Have you thrown his deeds in discard p
Put his record on the rack?
Is it you who'll be Stacker
To the boy who didn't slack?
Put him on!
If fellow clad in khaki,
Olive drab, or sailor blue
Walks in and asks you for a job
What are you going to do?
Yes, of course, it seems a problem,
May mean sacrifice for you;
But-remember Chateau Thierry!-
He's been sacrificing, too!
Put him on!

~ OBLENZ, June 16,-On the night OF April
IL 1918, in German dugout on the front OF
- Rouvois, six American soldiers-prisoners
heard with shame and helpless wrath dough
boy tell the enemy intelligence officer everything
he wished to know.
Their heads, hot with humiliation at their cap
ture, their backs bruised by blows; they swore
vengeance. Today Lawrence Perlmutter started
20 year term in prison. The publication OF
the verdict was greeted with mixed feelings among
the men of the Ninth Infantry. They think the
long sentence is too light, for with the inforrna-
ton Permutter divulged the boche were enabled
to prepare defense that cost the lives of many

Perlmutter's home is in New York city. He en-

April IA he in dressing station of the Third
Battalion of the Ninth Infantry. The boche in
American and French uniforms conducted raid

Captain w. H. Gordon, New York, and several
men were wounded They emptied two revolvers
on the Germans who rushed them through
the three entrances but were overpowered.
At the German intelligence headquarters Peri
mutter let it be known he spoke the German Ian
guage and volunteered as an interpreter.
Captain Gordon was asked: "What is the unit
on your right?"
81 don't know" he responded
you're liar," asserted Perlmutter, who then
identified the organization.
In this fashion he informed the German offic-
er of the dispositions of the Ninth Infantry and
gave the names of the commanding officers, the

Smelling certain road, that the battalion on the
left was the Third, and that tic hanged position
the night of the raid.
The little band was marched to the rear the next
day. Perlmutter passed them in German staff
car They met again at Camp Dormstadt, where
as interpreter he was given the freedom of a
trusty. His food was better and he received
tobacco. Perlmutter Stunned his former COM
rades. He was permitted to go to the city and
fraternized freely.
After the armistice, he was the first American
sent from Dormstadt to our lines. Instead of ask
ing to be returned to his own outfit he volunteer
ed for the military police. AS member of that
organization he returned to Germany and was
assigned to duty in Coblenz.
Letters in his possession indicated plan to
desert and meet woman prison camp.
Late in January the other six men came back
to the Ninth Infantry. Their first act was to
report Perlmutter's betrayal of his country. They
were informed they could go home, but every
man asserted a determination to remain and tes-
tify against "the yellow skunk" They called
him that in court.
Perlmutter's defense was he only volunteered to
act as interpreter and did not Intentionally give
the information to the enemy.-Copyright, 1919

AT THE PINNEY.

One of the greatest love dramas of
the present day, because it Is natural,
subtle and Of the moment, "A Stitch
in Time" as will be given by Audra
Alden and associate players the lat
ter half of this week commencing Fri
day night, charms from the moment
the curtain ascends until the finish of
the intense play.
The heart of a woman Is the same
be she sweet sixteen or sixty-every
beat is based upon love and self sac
rifice. The suffering caused when
these qualities are abused and out
ragged is equally intense.
While there is tear here and there
in "A Stitch in Time" as played by
Miss Alden and her co-workers, there
is mostly smiles and joy for those who
sit on the other side of the footlights
and are carried away to fairy-land.
To the man or woman who hasn't
time to spend an evening watching
and enjoying so delightful a stage
story, "A Stitch in Time" means moth
ing, but to the person who loves to
make each day worth something to
self and dear ones, this play cannot
fail in proving to be a rare entertain
ment.
Unlike so many plays of the mo-
ment, either on the spoken stage or on
the screen, "a Stitch in Time" is filled
to the overlooking point with good
cheer and faith in humanity.
