In the moment of ''linger the first thought t tin t comes to the real so Nor ma n Is In save his ship. Personal safe ly fa always a mutter of secondary consideration. One morning when the bottom blow valve of a holler whs car ried away on a man-of-war, Christo pher Smith, a mni hliilst's mate, Imme diately realised the danger and knew what tn do. He was on duty in the engine room when the accident oc curred. The room quickly filled with escnplng steam. I'liheedlng this, Smith fought his way llinimtli the hot cloud and, reaching the fire room. hauled the lire and kept the boiler from bursting. His cxlluntry savtnl his ship from serious damage and the navy department commended his ac tion. Smith enlisted In the navy In April, 1!I03. at Erie, Pa. Mower That Cut Neglected Lawn.

Gemiauy rm.v be likened t a great tree that has fullest kkw the path of deeiMtrracy. The trunk ta s-tng siophI thnmgh by two axea. the mllt- t'y a and the riMigMnillst ax. If the trunk la to be severed and (he ttlmtriM-tliui rennrtett. neither ax must be xlxml. Americans must em tribute willingly t help their allies, to siiHH their army and navy, which will be the deciding military factor In he strtirgle. Our American president was lh first world statetwuta to make clear that while a military victory la es sentia. It Is not In Itself adequate. The great slgnlfli-auce of thla war lies not on the battle lines, but behind them. It Is a war for human liberty, and that which restricts human liberty, not only In the Oerronn em pire, but also In America and England and Km nee and Italy and Ruanda must be abolished. We are beginning to perceive that the future progrea of democracy leends on national un selfishness and international en-opera-Hon scientifically conceived. Issued Werld Freelamatlea. In a aeries of masterly state paper Mr. Wilson has announced to the world that America enters the war unselfish ly, and has defined the true Issue for all the people of the earth even for those deluded portions of the Ger man population which, because of a false system of education, have hith erto upheld the hands of the worst enemies of lilierty, the Junkers. Vntll quite reivntly. one of the moat dis quieting symptoms from the point of view of the allies whs a discontent wllh. If not an actual opMwltlon to, the ar of large elements among the work ing classes of the Hilled eoplea. In Russia, where democracy was most crttellv supiiressml, where conditions for the peasant and the worklnginnn were hardest, a revolution actually took place a revolution that haa sounded the keynote of our times. The world service which our president Is doing Is that of enlisting the alle giance of thnse masses for the war. He is convincing them that it Is their war. And these Hre they upon whom Hie evils of nn oitfword economic sys tem have pressed hardest, and who hitherto have seen little hope that vic tory over the (lennaris meant their own deliverance. Mr. Wilson has Is sued a world proclamation of emanci pation from economic slavery. Make Their Own Treaties. He not only declares that powerful nations shall f.-ase to exploit little na tions, but thht powerful Individual shall cease to exploit their fellow men. He declares tl.at henceforth no wars shall be fought for domination, and that to this c'id secret treaties shall be abolished. The peoples through their representatives shall make their own treaties. And Just as national democracy Insurer to the Individual the greatest amount of self-determination, of self-renllzatlon, world democ racy shall Insure self-determination to the Individual nations of the earth, In order that each tuny be free to mnke Its own contribution to world democ racy, t 1 FinMinj for Oppressed. This Is the splr'ts ' which Ani, rlc has enteri'if-the war We nr.' lighting for the oppressed everywhere. Ann we are equally determined that the In justice and Inequalities that exist In our own government, the false stand ards of worth, the materialism, the luxury nnd waste shall be putged from our midst. We shall seize this oppor tunity to finish up the cleaning of our own household. To sustain our army nnd navy In the struggle for such a cause, to uphold our president, to aid our allies who have fought so long and so bravely, these are worthy of our sacrifices. I am confident that the re sponse of the American pi-ople to the third Liberty loan will be generous. Bonds Feed th Boys. Every farmer knows how his boys tike to cat. Mother's fried chicken nnd apple dumplings nnd pumpkin pie haven't n chance In the world when the hoys sit down nt table. Iots of farmers' boys nre In France and the farmer doesn't want them to go hun gry over there. Liberty Bonds buy food for them. Don't Bury Your Bond. When you and your neighbor have bought your Liberty Bonds, don't take them home and hide them In the rttp honrd. Take them to your country hanker and have him give you certifi cates of deposit for the bonds. Tour banker can take these bonds to a Fed eral Reserve bank and borrow money for your use In case yon suddenly find yonrself In need of funds. Hiding a bond Is ns had as hoarding money, Keep the bonds nnd the money In circula tion and the country will pull through this crisis all right. Th Safest Guide. . The niuch-prnlsed optimist, although to be admired. Is not a safe guide. Ha tells us nil Is well, when It I not. He fntls to see the pitfalls nnd urges us forward and we fall Into them. Likewise the pessimist, although shunned and berated, lends as to be over cautious. Under his Influence we hopelessly sit down for fear we will fall Into the pit, when there Is none. The cantions leader who watches, waits, and withal la patient expecttei the world to more forward. Is stttt; swst trostwc-', '1 .-. . , Si 1 3 '; IT"'
