THE REAL CoNQUERORs

TT Is not the general who takes
city and leaves behind him a name
for military sagaclty, who is the real
cOnqueror in life but The unknown
private, who fights single-handed
battle with self aud finally triumphS.
1t is this lowIy warrior who has
the most To overcome. He goes to
battle in silence, conscious Of the over
whelmiug odds arrayed against him.
+ There are no shrieking shells or
roaring cannon To announce his com
ing-no bugle calls nor throbblng
drums.
Often he fights side by side with
thousands whe utter not sound.
Once he awakes to some defect OF
character which threatens his ruin,
he girds his armor and faces the
foe.
And IL by valiant fighting he sue
ceeds in saving himself he comes
forth from the fray q real conQueror,
His name is unpublished in the
press. but il Is sung among the angels
He has overcome and TO him viii
he given the reward promised in the
Scriptures.
Passion, lEide, selhshness, ayarIee,
disobedienceaud forgetfulness Of the
Golden Rule are among the enemies
that men fight alone.
They are In every corner OF the
earth, in our own homes, in our own
hearts.
From them come eur reDinings and
tears, our fears and failures.
To OVERCOME these sulking foes
ought ts be our paramount purpose,
for what doth it profit man II
lie gain the whole world and lose
his own soul?'
In the werld's news today you may
read pathetic stories Of men and wom-
en- who have fallen from high estates
through failure. TO conquer themselves.
Married pairs have broken their
troth bank clerks have pllfered, and
all manner Of men and women have
blighted their lives and the lives OF
their families, simply because OF for
getfnlna'k OF duty in moment OF
weal1ness, when they were unable to
control an evil spirit.
They lacked the power to conquer
self, and in their impotence they de
serted the front line of brave fighters,
skunk back in dlsmay TO the rear
humiliated and routed, lost in the
whirlVof Time and remembered no
more.

There can be no doubt but that
your city or county has some prob

YOU NEEDED 1T THEN

That Government life insurance, to
which only veterans of the world
war are eligible, is the best and
cheapest protection, is generally con-
coded. Insurance companies do not
compete for the veterans business
and almost without exception are
ole-heartedly cooperating with
the Government in advising the boys
of opportunities open to them as a
result of their war service. Listen
to what the secretary of one OF
the largest life insurance companies
in the world says of Government
War Term Insurance.
"Of course Life Insurance COM
panies cannot grant insurace at less
than cost, but the Government. Of
fers insurance to the soldiers 1T less
than it would cost the Government
to grant that Insurance. That is
because the Government hears all
expenses of management, etc. The
Government is justified in this lib
erality in consideration of the fact
that these Veterans have risked their
lives, or have been willing to risk
their lives for the benefit of the
nation. All this being so, it is OBJ
viously expedient for these boys to
take all the Government insurance
possible at the low rate charged"
The Company whose secretary
made the above statement has in
structed all of its agents to refuse
to take applications from eS-service
men until they have taken the full
amount of Government insurance to
which they are entitled. The U. S.
Veterans Bureau is, handling the
insurance business for Federal Gov
eminent.

The Legion Should Lead.

The Legion Should Lead. :
What is the Legion doing in Min
nesota?
How often is that question asked
And how many can answer it?
The Legion has done something in
Minnesota. 1t has united the best
talent the state had at time of
national crisis. 1t has established
a standard of Americanism that is
without foolish exaggeration and it
has refused to tolerate destructive
criticism of our government institu-
tions.
Without much furore it demanded
and obtained redress for scores of
disabled buddies and brought about
the payment of the Minnesota State
Bonus; thus enabling many men who
left from one to three years of
their life in camp and trench to
make Roadway toward economic in
dependence.
It has done many things that
have been good and it has yet to do
anything which can be subjected te
question.
But-there is much more TO be
done.
There is no reason to become un-
duly excited over any ailment Min
nesota may have. 1t is a healthy
state and can right itself when nee
essary without much assistance, but
there is good reason to be surprised
when any Legion post, in any sec
ton, begins to show signs of decay
and a lack of energetic activity.
Since the American Legion is made
up Of the best the state had FIVE
years ago, it is only logical to ex-
pect that the Legion should now pro-
duce the leaders in every civic,
state and national activity centering
in your community, and in the
majority Of cases take the lead as an

FOUR BARRELS OF CRUDE
TO ONE OF GASOLINE

The principal commercial product
of crude petroleum is gasoline and
the crude oil of the United States
and Mexico is produced primarily to
meet the demand for this important
motor fuel.
Contrary to a very prevalent be-
lief, however, a 42-gallon barrel of
crude oil does not refine into Az
gallons of gasoline, nor is all crude
suitable for refining.
According to the American Pc
troleum Institute, it takes about
four barrels of crude to make one
barrel of gasoline. In other words,
gasoline forms only about % per
cent of a barrel of crude.
Other products of the barrel are ::
Kerosene, 10 per cent; lubricating
oil Az per cent; wax coke and
asphalt 2h per cent; miscellaneous
products, 6 per cent. There is a
per cent loss in refining.
