THIS AND THAT
By Charles E. TrdceUeH.
Templeton Jones is now an expert on

Templeton Jones Is now an expert on
oleomargarine.
Having scorned this substance all his
life, the hard realities of war have driven
him to it.
And he likes it!
Much to his amazement his utter
amazement, he really likes it..
Nobody could ever fool him, he had
always said He wanted nothing but
butter. Butter was good enough for his
mother and father, and it was good
enough for him.
Oleo, he thought, was good only for
poor folks.
Now, he has discovered, we are all poor
folks together.
Poor folks, in the grip of war!
AL in the same bitter boat of hostility.
What has man ever done, Jones often
muses., to make him keep up such an in
sane practice as war?
If he knew, ne reflected, he would be
the greatest man in the world.
The nations would come to his feet
and heap the rewards of the centuries
upon his slender shoulders, If only he
could tell them how to avoid the blind
insanity of war.
Templeton Jones laid down his evening
paper.
Nobody could fool me on it," he said
IF l can't have real butter, want no
imitation thereof"
He realized that in print no manu-
facturer of oleomargarine would even
admit that butter is butter.
"A spread for bread" they call it,
when they have to refer to it at all
AS for the butter people, they pretend
that oleo doesn't even exist.
Thousands of householders are finding
out otherwise.
The ration points demanded for butter
seem far far too many.
And then the Government has 2OO.-
100000 pounds of it stored up for the
soldiers, may God bless them and take
care of them.
The result is that Jones and many
others have come to the conclusion that
good clean oleo is better than rancid
butter
Templeton Jones laid down his paper
again.
Il defy any one to fool me" he said
Il know the taste of butter. ! come
from State where they always had good
butter.
L was brought up on hot bread and
soda biscuit
A smile came over his aristocratlc
face, with its thin features slightly re-
sembllng those Of Thomas Jefferson.

When WeukIinqs Talk
From the Montreal LIE Jour.

from the Montreal LIE Jour.
There is nothing surprising about the
divers political phenomena which are
today troubling public opinion and
muddling even the most enlightened
views. The weakhngs are doing the
talking. The majority of the strong are
at war; we mean the most robust physi-
cally and morally, the better balanced,
the most daring, the most generous. The
others, those who couldn't or wouldn't
fight, have stayed at home. Except men
whose age or family obligations retain
them, except also the sufficiently nu-
merious contingent Of directors, busi-
ness heads, farmers, workingmen, civil
servants, reservists or others whose
presence in the country has been Judged
useful or indispensable to the common
cause, the people remaining here rep
resent generally the feeble part of the
nation. 1t is this group that talks and
agitates. 1t is this group that sets up to
prepare the morrow after a war which
they did not fight and to dispose of
the future of those who did fight it. 1t
pretends to interpret the aspirations of
youth, but the youth to which it ad-
dresses itself, this youth which will ap-
plaud it for its lack Of courage or quite
simply-of virility is not at all the youth
which would risk all for the great ad-
venture and go to war

Nothing can harm US, though an old
1Ditch tries
To ride in through the ,Dindou on

What makes the backlog sputta so

And, look, the little eerie flames

On ohostly errands. Oh, those

Since our entry into the war the
Office where I work-a typical Govern
ment offlce-has been deluged with the
various posters issued by the Govern
ment. Most of these posters urge buy
ing more War bonds, although some
mention the Importance of secrecy re-
garding military information, etc. The
most recent poster which we received
refers to the scarcity of office sup
plies, such as typewriters, pencils and
paper. How ironical! 1t does seem
that If paper and labor are as scarce
as we have heard, we should not be
using them on these posters.
AS for the expense-naturally, I
assume that all the Government build
ings, both here and in the 4S States,
are as plentifully supplied as my own
Office building. have estimated (con-
servatively, I believe) that nearly $3, 900
must have been spent in making and
distributing posters Think of the
great number of bullets and guns
which could have been bought with
that money!
Of course, we understand that the
motive for making the posters is to
encourage us in our war work Splen-
did! But I contend that those who
are putting their hearts into the war
effort would have done so regardless
of the posters and those who were in
different are still Indifferent. There
fore, the posters are unnecessary and
are a tremendous waste of materials,
manpover and money. Let's stop this
waste! DELLA H. ATWOOD
