written these days which children's children will

result may stir the country very depths. Only

MONITOR.)
The most ridiculous form of reVo-
luton is when a perfectly free nation
proposes to revoIutionize itself, not at
the ballot boxes, but in the streets.
For nearly a century and half the
United States Of America has been
model of liberty without license.
But today there comes an element,
imported through the immigration Of
fiees, which proposes TO extend liberty
through license, which is topsy-turvy
way Of limiting liberty by license. IN
the United States of America every
man has vote. and before long every
woman will have one. In such con-
ditions to suggest a revolution as a
means Of carrying out the wishes of
the majority is about as sane as sitting
on the branch which you propose to
saw off. The form Of government in
the United States today is that deliber-
steIy chosen by its citizens, voting in
public elections, and obviously consti-
tutes the direct wishes of the major
ijty. The very next time that the polls
are opened, the voter can go into the
booth, and by the very simple process
of obtaining a majority, make any
| changes he likes in the government
Of the country. This is by no means
to the liking. however, of the alien,
who frequently Is not even a citizen,
and does not even know the language

HOW TO MAKE HOG CRATES

Neutrality-suspicious. than $4,000 re-
quests for information on how to
make hog crates have been received
by the United States department of
agriculture.
A large number of the requests are
from club members, and the percent
age received from the South is re-
garded by officials of the department
as an index to the extent of improve
ment the hog industry has made In
that part of the United States.
The type of crate the department
specialists have developed and are

provides comfort without. loss of space
for the hog In transit. A circular of
the department tells how to build the
crate.

AMERICA WON'T FORGET
President Wilson Says Wounds of Our
 Boys Are Modest Badges.

America will not forget"
 This was the concluding sentence in q message which President Wilson sent to the fighting men in Debarka- ton Hospital No. 1 at New York just before he sailed on the George Wash ington to take part in the closing ses- sion of the Peace Conference at Paris.
 How shall we prove that America will not forget- Whether the Presi- dent had in mind the Victory Loan is a question which doesn't matter. The fact remains that this loan is the first test offered, and those who subscribe 10 it-and this must mean every one will prove that our memories are not short. our patriotism is still aggres. sive. not passive, and that we shall do our full duty in clinching the victory won by men whose wounds. said the President. are the noblest badge 8 ever worn"
 The text of the short note written by President Wilson to Right About. the official publication of Debarkstion Hospital So. l, follows:
 T could tell you.- he wrote. what the sacrifices you have made have meant 10 the world. I could tell you what history for all time to come will say oi you and the saferings you have experienced on your great crusade But these things other men will tell you
 T prefer to remind you that the wounds you bear are the noblsst badges of honor any man has sver worn; that they eKslt you to a su. preme place in the minds and hearts sf your eountrymen and of all tba world l prefer to assure you that America realizes that she has no mora solemn obligations. no more patriotic duty than to express in practical terms fhe gratitude that every Ameri. can, man. woman and child. feels for every one of you.

 You see, strong drink does not enter into our social life to the ex- tent that it does in most other countries.
 "A little while back, for instance, an American girl in London attend ed a reception where champagne cup was served.
 'She had never tasted wine be- fore, and being quite ignorant as to its effects, and being also very thirsty, she drank deeply. Pretty soon the room began to revolve around her and she sat down..

MEDALS FROM GERMAA CANNON ID DE GIVEN
 LOAN CAMPAIGhERs
Names to Be Engraved on Tropnies From Captured Guns as
 Civilians Q. s. C.

Every worker participating m the Victory Loan. which will be offered 10 the public April 21. will be awarded B medal by the Treasury Department for his services The medal Will De made from captured German cannon, with a reproduction of the Treasury on one side and certiheation of loan participation on the other Under the plan announced at Washington, the medal will be the size of a haif-doiiar' Space will be left for engraving the name or the participating worker on one side.
 The medal will be to the workers in the Victory Loan, working after the guns iu Europe have been stiiled, what the Distinguished Service Cross vas to the worker in the trenches TOT the harder and more dangerous sery- ice. It is intended as an appreciation of the service to the thousands ot American citizens who realize that tho war has been won. but who also are conscious oi the fact that the troops have not been brought back home. and who are anxious to work to the end of psrfecting demobiliEation and re- adjustment of industrial conditions.
 Purchasers of the Victory Loan will not be presented with medals because the intrinsic value of the notes will be worth par, but to those who devote their energies to interesting the peo- pie in any of the government activities toward purchases The possibility of securing one of the medals. which will be the official recognition by the gov srnment of the work performed. women in working for the Victory Loan. The only restriction. and that really is no restriction. is that the medals will so only to those who are in advance authorized to perform the ~ork on which the claim for award of the medal is based
 Consequently. when residents of the Eighth Federal Reserve District are ambitious 10 have one of the medals they should proffer their services to whatever branch Of the campaign they want 10 engage in
 None of the medals have been re- ceived in the district. but the an nouncement from Washington indi- cates that il will be one of the most artistic turned out by the United States in recent years IL will be a medal that in both size and beauty will be worthy of handing down from generation to generation to show the activity of the recipient in patriotic work.
