THE PEOPLE WILL PAY


 Regardless of what our feelings may be as to the management of the war, our honor as nation is pledged to the payment of the bills for the war No man who holds his own reputation for business integrity above reproach doubts tbat. He would scrupulously pay his own debts and the debts of his country are a very definite part of his own obligations.
 The government has contracted cer- tain debts. It has come to the people for the money with which to satisfy these obligations. Through statements of its highest officials it has repeat edly made clear to all that 1t expects to secure this money not from the banks or the great financial institu- tions. but through the whole hearted support of the great majority of it's .itizens.
 It will be higher type of patriot ism that will be called to the test during the coming days than respond ed to the former appeals of the gov ernment. Aside from a few technical ities the war is over. The fifth loan will be raised without the spur of hos tilities because the American people are capable of reaching greater heights of patriotism than they have yet climbed.

BOOSTER BEAUTY BOX
(Edited by Madame X.)

Dear Madame X: A bunch of we boys are publicly much embarrassed at times by superfluous hair (upon the shoulders of our coats), also they assume a film-like white expression which is not noticeable until we get in strong light. Can you suggest remedy? BASHFUL. Bashful: You neglect to mention whether you are married or single. In the former case wife is the most efficient and infallible hair remover known. And you do not clearly state what assumes film-like white ex- pression-the hair or shoulders of said coat. However, vigorous brush ing with a whisk broom or any good, reliable brush will prove an effective remedy and also prevent the develop ment of further trouble. In the fu- ture we will not answer queries sign ed by fictitious names. It implies a lack of confidence which we can not encourage. Your secrets are safe with us, you know.
 Dear Madame X: Can you recom- mend some good, inexpensive tooth powder; also inform me where it can be purchased in large quantities. Low ingly, HENRIETTA ELLIOTT.
 Dear Henrietta: We do not give names of firms in this column, but a self-addressed and stamped envelope will bring you the desired informa- tion. Please state, however, for what kind of teeth you wish to use this powder-saw teeth, comb teeth, your own or some other Elk's teeth.

NAVAL FLAME
MAKES A NEW
WORLD RECORD

Washington, April pa naval sea-
plane of the F-5 type, propelled by
two Liberty motors of 400 horsepow-
cr each, and carrying crew of four
men, remained IN the air at Hampton
Roads naval base for 20 hours and 10
minutes yesterday. establishing what
naval officials said tonight was
worlds record for seaplanes. The ma
chine covered distance of about L.
$50 miles, averaging little more
than sixty miles an hour, despite the
fact that q gale of from 20 to 80
miles was blowing.
Twenty hours is the time officers
have estimated will be necessary for
the naval seaplanes to make trans
tlantic flight from New Founderland
to Ireland if direct route finally is
decided upon and they said that as
the machine making the record at
Norfolk is much smaller than those
to go overseas, yesterdays perform
ancc augurs well for the success of
the overseas attempt.
The distance from New Founder
land to Ireland is slightly more than
1900 miles, but the planes under COM
mander John H. Towers are capable
of faster speed than those of the F5
type. Their cruising speed probably
will be about 70 miles an hour.

Easter Morning
Breakfast Made a
Time Of Real Joy

TT WAS my good fortune one
time to be visiting in a family
u where Easter was celebrated in
a very pretty fashion. When we came
down to the breakfast table in the
morning we found 1t looking so beau
tiful It seemed pity to disturb its
beauty by the prosaic act of eating.
The dining room was a particularly
sunny, attractive room to start with,
and the beautiful table this morning
was set with its usual gay blue and
yellow china, but in addition the center
of the table held great mass of yell
low daffodils standing In clear crys-
tai float. For the benefit of the chill
dren little yellow ducks and chickens
were perched along its edge and at
each plate we found one of the flowers
for our personal adornment.
Everything we had for breakfast
that morning seemed to glow with
yellow; the grapefruit had brighter
tinge than usual, the rolls and toast
a delicious golden brown; and when
our eggs were served each one had
been baked in a little yellow ramekin.
The whites had been beaten until they
puffed up above the cup and tinged
delicate yellow brown in the oven, and
nestled In the top of each fluff was
the yellow yolk of the egg. At the
plate of each child was an attractive
yellow basket with little nest of va
riegated colored tissue paper-for had
not the bunnies been busy during the
night leaving eggs around the house
for the children to gather in the morn
ing? They could hardly wait to eat
their breakfast so eager were they to
be off.
Such queer places as these little
animals had left the eggsl In the
