Or, they point out reasons why their husbands shouldn't be taken-bringing up old ailments until they make a robust man look like an invalid. THEY COULDN'T GET ALONG"
 Some of them go helpless and say they just don't think they could get along without their hus- bands And others they don't think their husbands could stand Army life
 But no matter what they say they usually end up by making their husbands look little bit silly.
 That is because the Army is mans business Whether not he goes in may affect his wifes life almost much it does hsbut it is still his bus ness and not hers And she ought to let him handle the subject conversationally.
 A wife's publicly taking a stand the matter makes her husband look nen-pecked She reduces his stature from who is individual to just

IN THE
NEWS
By CHARLES S. RYCKMAN


MI May in each year has
been designated by
Congress as II Am an Amer.
lean" Day, and In accordance
with that act we now devote
ourselves to its observance.
The purpose of the day Is
not for any citizen, by reason
Of being an American through
birth or naturalization, to
take upon himself special
merit.
IL would defeat the real
purpose of the day, in fact, ii
IL encouraged Americans to
feel they were a very special
and superior people.
Self asserted superior
people have always been ex-
tremely dangerous people.
They are arrogant and bel
hgerent, and make themselves
obnoxious to their neighbors
I'm their most inoffensive man
ifestatiOns of assumed supe-
riority, and become oppres'
sive and tyrannical In the
more sinister intrusiOns which
almost inevitably follow.
That is not the character
or the history of the Ameri-
can people.
II Is contrary to the in
stincts Of our people, who
conduct even such violent and
justifiabie wars as that which
now engages them without
intention of conquest or OF
vindictive imposition beyond
the requirements of a world
safeguarded against new viO-
iations of security and tran
guilty.
America is conducting the
present war. as II intends to
utilize the ensuing peace, with
the hope and under the neces-
sity of preserving the dignity
and virtue of mankind.
This war Is unhappily our
responsibility and burden,
because peoples or the rulers
of peoples asserting superb
ority have held our way OF
life i'm contempt, and have
thus put us under the compul-
sion of defending it in order
to perpetuate it.
Wars may usually be traced
to illusions of superiority,
which induce dreams of au'
thority and supremacy, and
encourage greedy men to in.
terpret their own desire to
possess and rule as sufficient
warrant to seize and conquer,
and incite ambitious men to
aggression and cruelty as
means of establishing and
welding power.
Thus peoples which sup.
pose themselves superior are
seldom peaceful, and are
never hOnOred or respected
and are not uph0Iders OF
right and righteousness, and
neither believe in nor profit
by the rules of justice, tOler'
ance and brotherhood.
Moreover, such peoples
In addition to being quarrel
some and acquisitive neigh
bors, are never free, but be.
come enslaved by the very
despotism which they create
and consent to.
Such peoples are therefore
not superior. as they suppose
themselves to be and as they
are encouraged to believe b,

liberty and honor and driv,
