A PRIVILEGE TO CHERISH
(New York Herold-rrib,,nel

It is easy to accept without Q murmur q familiar privilege, and, whether it is exercised or not. to set up a mighty squawk if 1t is jeopardized. Of what avail Is the privilege of voting if 1t is not used? Certainly there are no more heated discussions in the world than the political ones in this country. DC all these arguers vote? If we are to believe statistics, they do not. Many simply enjoy getting hot under the collar, letting off steam, and making their opinions felt ineffec- lively.
 More than that, a citizen has as much of e duty to his country at home as a sailor or a soldier, under arms. He should have learned c great deal about this in the last few years while he has been occupied making bandages, doing without. manning afraid stations. and SO on. votlkiss which takes leas tinae and

STRENGTH FOR THE DAY
By EARL L. DOUGLASS. D. D

LIVE IN THE PRESENT TENSE
 Some people live their lives too much in the present tense. The situ- ation at hand is the only thing they think about, the result being that

time to time as the war progresses. we are of the poinion that the sound, the very fundamental pros grem of the Allied chiefs Of staff will go forward as planned. The Al- lies now have on all fronts the striking power which they need. Sometimes the advance lines run away from their supplies, and there is Q consequent delay until the sup- plies and achievements catch up. But this simply means that even Q modern army cannot advance gerat distances every day without interruption.
 After any period of steady ad" vanccs, there must follow Q tempor- ary period of holding the line until the attack can be re-grouped and re-aimed.
 Allied forces are in master hands. Allied gains will follow a pattern worked cut by the General Staffs.

 Since you undoubtedly know who all the big betters are in the city we thought you might like this advance tip.
 No. WVCQ does not know which horse will win, nor would it be morally right to divulge such information if we had it.

Court Writ Frees Boy
From Industrial School

Justice David A. Pine of District
Court late yesterday granted a
habeas corpus writ freeing 12-year-
old Arthur Chamberlain from the
Industrial Home School. after sug-
gesting rehearing in Juvenile
Court, through which the boy was
committed to the school.
Justice Pine suggested a rehearing
after hearing evidence that the
boy and his mother, Mrs. Mae
Chamberlain, 1900 block of D street
NE, had not been represented by
an attorney at the previous hearing.
The rehearing was agreed to by
Attorney Milton L. Lewis, who now
represents the boy and his mother,
and Assistant Corporation Counsel
Chester H. Gray. The boy had been
taken to Juvenile Court on a claim
of lack of proper parental care.
In the habeas corpus petition. it
was charged the boy had been
bruised by certain persons" at the
school. In his opening statement,
Attorney Lewis said that after being
admitted to the school the boy had
been placed in separate confinement.
This happened allegedly after he
had run away from the school to
see his mother after learning she
was scheduled to go to a hospital.
