WHY BUY WAR SAVINGS
STAMPS ?
BY Jennie Glover Brown.

BY Jennie Glover Brown.
Because:
For many years we fooled ourselves
That things could perfect be
Only when they were trademarked
With the stamp Of Germany
AS time went on the climax came
TO their efficiency
When War of diabolic type
Was Made In Germany!
Man wants but little here below,
Nor wants that little long,
But Wilhelm tried to get the earth,
And Wilhelm got in wrong;
For we bought bonds and Savings
Stamps,
That Uncle Sam might send
The food and ammunition that
Would hasten the wars end.
We Hooverized and Storrowized
For our dear country's sake,
But we would not be Kaiserized!
We had too much at stake.
Twas not the time to reason why!
We knew such things must be
To speed the movement that would
kill
The Germ in Germany!
The food we save, the bonds we buy,
And stamps, for many a post,
Are paying toward the barbecue
On which said Bill will roasti
That's why we buy the Savings
Stamps,
And we will buy until
A League Of Nations shall decide
To free this world of Bill

vestigating the feasibility of buying a

EYES SENSITIVE TO LIGHT

There are invisible rays present in all
light, and under certain conditions these
are distinctly harmful. They are called
the chemical or ultra violet rays. These
are invisible, that is, they do not pro
duce any sensation OF sight upon the
lens system of the eye. Then there are
longer rays than the red rays. These
are also invisible. Ultra violet and in
fra red rays when present in excessive
quantities, have a destructive effect
upon the delicate tissues of the eyes.
And these invisible enemies OF the eyes
are present to a varying extent in al
light. When eyes are sensitive to light
have an examination made.

Democrats at Sea as to What Wilson
Intends to do About denomination.
Washington, Nov 19.-Aspirants for
the Presidency, regardless Of party,
will have to come out into the open
six weeks from today unless they
feel sufficiently strong to pass up all
claim to the ten delegates TO their
at!onal conventions from the State
CT South Dakota.
The Democratic National Commit
tee has mcarthcd Il South Dakota
law which makes this obligatory.
The primary in that State is not UNI
til. March 90 next, but the time for
filing petitions is fixed at not later
than the first OF the year in which
a Presidential election falls.
The main interest in this fact is
that it will operate, it is believed
here, to smoke out tho situation in
the Democratic party. Dominated
completely by Woodrow Wilson large
ly through the supincness Of the bal
ance of its representatives in Wash
ington and elsewhere, the Democrats
have been milling around in feigned
indifference but actually on tenter-
hooks TO learn whether the President
will seek another term, and also wheth
er he is going to take it upon him
self to name the Standardization Of
his party.
THERE IS ONE RAY OF HOPE.
All the anxious Democrats whose
lightning rods have been run up
have only one small hope that Will
son will not run and that they will
have a chance at tho nomination.
This was when the President in talk
ing at one OF the festivities held here
for President-elect Pessoa OF Brazil
said in effect that he was glad that his
work as Chief Executive OF this nat
ion was for the most part behind
him.
However, during the fight Of the
Senate to change the peace treaty
and Che League Of Nations so far az
1t affects this country there have
been intimations that If the treaty
failed OF ratification or was so amend
ed or reserved against that 1t did not
suit him. Mr.. Wilson would fight out
the campaign in 1920 along those
lines.
This uncertainty will 60 by tho

LIQUOR QUESTION IN SUPREME

President Makes 1t Known Dry La"
viii Not I}c RcSCindcu.
ATTACK RIGHTS OF CONGRESS.
Only Possibility Of "Wet' Christmas
Lies in Acts Unconstitutionality.

Washington, Nov. 2u1-Nmlio tho
Suprcme Court was hearing argu-
ments today on the validity of the
wartime prohibition act, word went
out from the White House that Presi
dent Wilson would not rcscind the
"dry" act until peace formally had
been declared.
This was expected to set at rest
the cvcr-rccurring rumors That inc
dry" ban would be lifted by tho
President irrespective of early ratit1
cation of the treaty of Versailles.
Failure of tn cSenatc to act on tho
treaty at the extraordinary session
was regarded by many adminlstra-
ton officials as prccluding the end
ing OF the technical state Of war much
before the constitutional prohibition
amendment became effective next
January 16.
Should such prove the case, the
only possibility Of "wet' Christ
mas would be for the Supreme Court
TO declare the wartime act unconstl-
tu,ional Arguments on the pending
cases will be concluded tomorrow,
but as the court begins n recess Mon
day no decision is expected until 1t
reconyenes on December 8.
RIGHTS OF CONGRESS ATTACKED
The right Of Congress to prohibit
the manufacture and salo Of intoxt-
eating liquors was sharply attacked
and vigorously defended during the
arguments.
Elihu Root and others contcnded
that the wartime act and tho Vol
stead enforcement measure not only
violated the fifth constitutional
amendment, prohibiting the taking
Of property without just compensat
ion, but were imperative owing to
tho cessation Of hostilities and the
rehabilitation Of the army which
were responsible for their enact
ment. Ft,tsfT&
Solicitor-General King and William
l.. Frierson, an assistant Attorney
General !or the government, argued
however. that Il state OF war still OK
listed and that 1t was Congress- IN
tention to provide wartime prohlbi-
tiOn until the Eeace treaty was rati-
fie;l.
