ARE YOU DISCOURAGED?

Remember this:
When Abraham Lincoln was a
young man he ran for the legislature
in Illinois, and was badly swamped.
He next entered business, failed
and spent seventeen years of his life
paying up the debts of a worthless
partner.
He was in love with a beautiful
young woman to whom he became en-
gaged-then she died.
Later he married a woman who
was constant burden to him.
Entering politics again, he ran for
congress again and was badly defeat
ed,
He then tried to get an appeint=
ment to the United States land Office,
but failed.
He became a candidate for the
United States senate, and was badly
defeated.
In 1856 he became a candidate
for the vice-presidency and was again
defeated.
In 1858 he was defeated by Doug
las.
One failure after another-bad
failures great setbacks. In the
face Of all this he eventually became
one of the country's greatest men, if
not the greatest.

There Is more Catarrh in this section
of the country than all other diseases
put together, and for years it was sup
posed to be incurable. Doctors pre-
scribed local remedies and by constant
ly failing to cure with local treatment,
pronounced it incurable. Catarrh is a
local disease. greatly Influenced by con-
stitutional conditions and therefore re-
quires constitutional treatment. Halls

ties, 10000 women's divisions, and
some $4,000 community and mu-
nicipal units. This great field ma
chinery has represented the people
of the United States in Washington
and has carried through to the
smallest community the problems
and measures of the national gov
eminent during the war.
In Washington the Council of
National Defense has created such
vital bodies as the War Industries
Board, the Aircraft Production
Board, the Commercial Economy
Board, acting in sense as great
administrative laboratory; and other
similar government war agencies
The Council of National Defense has
been content to build these agencies
and to turn over to them the spe-
cific problems which come within
their jurisdiction.
It had not originally been the in
tention to continue the state coun-
Gil of defense system beyond the date
of the signing of the armistice
However, we find many problems
that now require careful handling
problems in which the cooperation
of the people throughout the United
States is not only desirable but alb
solutely necessary. There is the
problem of Americanization, the
problem of unemployment, the trans
ference of the $37,0O0,O00,OOO OF
war risk insurance outstanding from
a war to a peace basis-in short it is
no less imperative to meet the prob
lens of re-adustment than it was to
prepare for war. .
For that reason Mr.. Clarkson, Di-
rector of the Council, at the personal
request of the Secretary of War,
Chairman of the Council, has agreed
to continue in Office and has written
the states suggesting that special
non-partisan, non-sectarian bureau
or commission be established in each
state which will draw from the coun.
Gil of defense system already created
those dividends for peace which the
war effort of the nation has entitled
it to receive.
You have carried in your news
columns, and your state council has
received, an outline of the Directors
suggestion to carry on" and / am
therefore taking the liberty of asking
that you give the support of your
publication to your own state organi-
cations in the furtherance of the
work, which touches so intimately
and in such wholly non-partisan
way the life of practically every ham,
let in the nation.
l should be very glad to receive
from you any suggestions as to the
methods by which the best possible
results could be obtained in your dis
trict. These suggestions will of
course be tabulated and laid before
the Council.
Yours sincerely,
S. w. REYNOLDS,
Assistant to the Director

You're a cat!'
That's about the worst thing Que

h ave always typificd deceit, cruelty,

Keep Your Uniforms

Sailors, soldiers and marines who
desire to retain the uniforms they
wore during their service were ad.
vised by Representative Ieoe of st,
Louis not to return their uniform
even though the time limit for re.
turning them has expired. IgOe
said be was assured the bill, propOs-
ed by him and which will permit
the uniforms to be retained will be
adopted before the end of this week.
The delay in enacting the bill
has been caused by the fact that. in
the revenue measures q provision
was made to permit the service
men to retain the uniform and the
conferees we're afraid the two meas
UIes would be in conflict An
agreement has been reached now
whereby Ieoe' bill will be adopted
by the two houses and the revenue
measure will contain a provision to
give the discharged men a bonus Of
$50. The provision urged by lgoe
to grant discharged men an allow
anCe of 5 cents a mile traLspOrta-
ton also has been adopted.
Sailors who ere now being grant
ed discharges, even though their
period of service was not ended and
who are receiving a certificate of
service" instead of the customary
honorable discharge papers. later
will be able TO get the S cents a
mile TRANSPORTATION allowance, Ieoe
said In the naval appropriation
bill, Ieoe obtained an amendment
to have these men granted an
honorable discharge in place of the
certificate of service. This amend
nent will he adopted by both houses
and then the transportation allow
ance will be in order.

Mr.. Foreman was a member of
the Methodist church for many

missed in the future by those whom,
by their intimate relations, had
learned to respect his councils.
Funeral services were conducted
Sunday afternoon at the Lawson
home by Rev. H c. Boen, assisted
by Rev J. c. Cook, after which the
remains were laid to rest in St
Jude'S cemetery with Masonic cere

a frivolous butterfly who broke

cat aud her little one was the turn

The cat taught her there was
something IN the world besides

there was suffering in the world

much to relieve that suffering. 1t
showed her d man whose kisses
