OBEDIENCE.

Obedience does not usually carry an
agreeable meaning to most people; for
some reason, the word is rather out of
class. We have thought OF servants
and sometimes children as being re-
quired to obey orders, but the ''Ameri-
can spirit" has always held itself too
proud to do anything but command.
1t was for this reason that all the
world declared that the United States
would be failure at war. 1t was said
that our independent youth would not
accept army discipline; besides. peace
loving America could never be turned
into war machine.
The first registration day, when all
men between the ages OF twenty-one
and thirty one we're required to sign
up for their country's service, was pre-
dicted to bring about riots and protests.
And, instead. this day furnished con-
crete evidence that the superficial esti-
mate of the American spirit" was
wrong.
Men drafted into the service poured
into hurriedly constructed environments
and camps. Here, instead of i'll will or
dependency, the highest type OF will
ingness to serve and serve cheerfully,
was shown. The 81 told you So" of the
pessimists was mysteriously checked,
but still the remark was heard that,
even though willing to go. the men
would not make good soldiers. The old
argument was again brought up-obedi-
ence to orders was not possible among
citizens of so democratic nations and
fighters could not be created over night
from peaceful and peace-loving men.
And then they went across.
Will any one of US ever forget that
day when the cable came home that the
boys. in sectar of their own. had re-
relied heavy German attack?
After that the news followed, day by
day. of the wonderful fight & qualities
that the war had suddenly awakened in
the American men. All Europe-more
especially Germany-rubbed it's eyes
and sat up. This wasn't expected: in
fact was most surprising.
And just nineteen months and five
days after the American declaration of
war against the enemy. Germany signed
the armistice. This, in spite of the
fact that on April 6. 1917. the United
States army was only 10000 strong.
and between even this handful of mt n
and the front-line trenches there were
three thousand miles of sea perils.
They did not hesitate. but obeyed and
went over. A great many of them are
still there. We said go, and they went;
now bring them back. See the job
through with the Victory Liberty Loan.

A TRIBUTE TO MOTHER.

To one whose love is deener far
Than any tongue can tell;
Who counsels US in loving tone,
And guides the ne'er-do-well.
Whose smile, like sunshine, scatters
gloom,
And makes the dark day bright;
Whose tender and caressing voice
Makes weary hearts grow light.
Who comforts us in hours of trial,
When others do not care;
Who follows US where'er we roam
With loving thought and prayer.
The guardian angel of our homes
Without her all is night,
For who can call it Home, Sweet
Home"
When mothers laid from sight?
A heart so constant and so true,
Well never, never find;
No hand can smooth the tangled
locks,
Oh, mother dear. like thine.
Your gentle tones we can't forget,
Your bright smile still we see;
The sweet strain Of your lullaby
We hear, with thoughts of thee.
So patiently with word and deed,
You labor day by day
To make a hallowed place of rest
Where peace and rest will stay;
That when the weary pilgrim, turns
His steps, no more to roam,
His thoughts, on wings of lightning
To mother and his home.
Perhaps the locks that once were
bright
Have turned to silver gray;
Perhaps the cheeks that once were
fair,
Are fading more each day.
Her step, perhaps, is not as light,
Her eye not quite so clear;
But after all it matters not,
To US she's lust as dear.
For when we're being tossed about
Upon life's rugged sea,
Hers is the hand that holds US fast,
An anchor sure is she.
A, mothers love-that guiding light
On land and sea the same;
Will burn through all eternity
A pure celestial flame.

TO THE FINISH

Everybody knew, Of course, that we
were going to win the war. Every
body knows. of course, that the country
won't fall down on the Victory Liberty
Loan. But winning the war was more
than matter of knowing; it required
stupendous preparation. super human
effort and sacrifice. And putting over
the loan also involves more than know
ing; it requires continued effort; it re-
quires enthusiasm. There must be NO
let up-no thought of it-until the full
amount has been subscribed.
Suppose the men in the trenches and
the men guarding the sea lanes had last
May decided that they were tired; that
they had done enough; that it was time
to quit; what would this nation have
thought of them? They were daily
suffering hardships unspeakable; they
were offering their bodies and their
lives for the safety of America. What
the nation told them to do they did.
The Victory demanded. of them has
been achieved.
Those sturdy lads we're expected to
give their lives if need be. No one is
now asked for such a sacrifice. The
people are requested merely to lend.
For many of the boys returning from
overseas the war will never be over.
The blind and the manned will always
be paying But they are not complain

The Social Realm
Senior Glass Play.

"All of a Sudden Peggy" the
Senior class play given at the high
school gymnasium last Friday night
drew a sympathetic and apprecia
tive audience that completely filled
the room. If the idea prevailed in
the minds of any of the spectators
that their presence was only re-
auired to encourage the participants
of the play and not to be entertain
ed they were soon agreeably dlsap-
pointed. for from the rising OF the
curtain on the first act to the fall
ling at the end of the last the play
abounded in entertaining comedy
most creditably presented. The lead
ing scenes of the play were laid about
the English Manor house, white
Hail." at Hawkhurst, belonging to
Anthony, Lord Crackenthorpe, a
fellow of the chronological society,
with a hobby for spiders. The role
was successfully carried out by
William Allen, whose impersonation
OF a crank in the pursuit of hob
by was admirable White Hall was
invaded by the Widow o'Mara and
her daughter, the former of whom
was assiduous in assisting the head
of the house in his researches and
incidentally trying to make match
between his lordship and her daugh-
ter, Peggy. Pauline McClintock i'm
personaved the widow and her
brogue and Irish witticisms we're par
ticularly realistic. Laura Wenner,
who took the part of Lady Crack
enthorpe, the naughty English dow
ager, was in league with her broth
er, Major Archie Phipps, imperson-
ated by Chester MacCracken, whose
anxiety was to provide for himself
while planning for the good of the
family" and was anxiously endeav-
oring to save her son from the
Vaccinations Of the designing wild
ow. In this she was assisted by her
daughter, the Honorable Millicent
Keppel dorothy jones', and the
scheme concocted by this aristocrat-
lc household involved the younger
son of the family who had lately
arrived from a tea plantation in Cey-
