that is purchasable In terms of dol

loyal to his government in the last
great crisis which threatened his
countrys existence would be in the
front ranks again OF those who would
Jump to the defense of their country
II the call were TO come tomorrow or
next week or at any time In the In
definite future. This is no time to
talk patriotism, the soldiers have
proved theirs,--it Is time TO talk about
facing n real live issue involving o
matter OF justice and fairness TO four
and a half millions of the country's
stalwart sons.
While business men and the whole
taxpaying public are continuously
asking if We can at this time, any
time in tho near future, pay by taxa
ton. direct, or indirect; by bond is-
sues. refundins Of foreign debts. or IN
any other way, a oash compens sation
to the ex-sorv,ce men. is not the real
question whether the country can at
ford not to pay; whether. in the name
OF decency. honesty. and fair play IL
can afford TO trifie with. or put of for
single moment payment OF a claim
that every other nation that partici-
pated In the great struggle has con-
sidered a sacred obligation.
While massed evidence is piling up
mountain high of the opposition OF
corporation and business men to COM
pensation in any form the fact stands

every state. in every community in
the country where the people have

/ proposition, they have returned an
overwhelming majority in favor OF
what they consider justice and fair
ness to the soldier and an attempt
at least. on the part Of the govern
ment TO discharge an honest obh-
cation.
In conclusion, It 10 only fair to
state that the American Legion, the
largest organization of ex-service
men, which has fought the question o,
compensation through until 1t has got
a hearing before the Legislatures OF
many of the states and in the halls Of
Congress, has never played politics
1t does not seek TO use the soldier
vote TO advance any partisan issue
and It holds out no threats of reprisal:
against Legislators who vote theii
honest convictions. though these con.
victions be not in harmony Will
the views of the soldiers i
does demand. however. a fair hearing
and fair dealing in a matter tina

tudes Of cases vitality the welfare o
those who hesitated not when thei
! country called to lay their all on tn,
altar Of sacrifice. in the name o
liberty. honesty, and Justice.

HELPFUL HINTS
FROM READERS

Miss H.: cold cotton stockings can
be used AS stove-lifters by cutting small
circles from them, putting several OF
these circles together, buttonholing
them together around the edges, then
quilting them fairly near together"
Mrs. w: white silk stockings which
are worn out make pretty camisoles II
the largest whole sections Of them are
joined together with crcam-colored lace
insertion and the top finished with
beading and edging Of the same. Run
cream satin ribbon over the shoulders
Old Housekeepcr: Zone is always
needing twine in the kitchen. ] use an
old funnel, which | painted white, Tor
twine-holder; the ball rests inside OF
this hanging funnel, and the end OF the
twine is run down through the pointed
funne-cnd."
Mr.. A.. "When make my fruit cake
first place it in the tin and set this tin
in larger pan which contains hot
water; put II in the oven in this way
and bake till it begins 70 brown on
top. Then | take the smaller pan out
Of the one containing water, and set IT
back in the oven TO brown on the bot
tom. In this way the cake bakes beau
tifully without burning"
From Reader: IL darn large holes
in sweaters or children's stockings by
first basting a piece Of mosquito netting
over the hole, then darning right
through IT, This makes the work look
very neat"
Mrs. II. G. W. "In answer TO what
one can do with old silk stockings, cut
them from the top round and round,
spirolly, in strips about one inch vide,
and then sew these strips together.
White stockings con be dyed any de-
sired color. Crochet this chain Of strips
with large wooden crochet hook, Just
rs you would yarn, making any size or
shape desired. The result is o splendid
rug which one can use anywhere around
the house"
