Secretary Meares Harriss, of the Ro tary Club, made a; timely suggestion when he blazed forth the slogan, "Bus iness as Usual". He deplores any in clination (generally unintentional, of course) to indulge in pessimism, with its attendant stagnation of business, which would result in retrogression, and calls upon the business folks to offset this by activity. He has the right idea. Business is not created by do-nothingness, and-the way to offset dull times is to get busy.

Wilmingtonians should be especially alert There will be chance to get some of the additional iactories need ed and being a seaport Wilmington will be in position to take part in the big commercial expansion that must necessarily immediately follow the close of the European war.

In this way America will save much money and, perhaps, many lives, while the entente will gain a stronger ally.

French balked Ger man attack on Hill 304 at Verdun; Italians pushed Austrians back 'at Monte Sperano; British repelled Ger man assaults at two points on west ern front after bitter hand-to-hand fighting. J ; ' Billy Sunday has already called New X Yorkers "mutts." After he looks around a bit he will also find plenty oi j ens in uotham. v There .are vtwo big factors in waging war successfully. One to dig trenches at the front and the other to dig veg etables back home. . " ' Mexico's promise to remain neutral J means only as tov the outside world. ! It is impossible for Mexicans to be neutral towards each other.

They like ly cannot see light ahead and realize that the blackness wil be increased. Prolongation of the struggle will mean a heavier burden they will have to bear when the day of reckoning comes, and if they are entirely prostrate at the last the terms of peace will not hold out any chance whatever. So there is no doubt, in the mind of the person who can reason, that these two coun tries would like to have peace, and would be willing to seek it and make big concessions to get it. But wanting it and being able to shake off Ger many's grip is quite another thing. Germany. dominates these two govern- ments and if they would break loose what would be their fate before they could ally themselves with the entente, so that the latter could assist them? Austria-Hungary would be in a strong er position than Bulgaria, but will either dare ma&e the break, as much as they may desire to sue for peace? Bulgaria would be overrun in a few days by the Germanic forces. Austria- Hungary would have to battle for its very life. - ::VIf Senator Stone isreally in earnest - .'with his ultra gyrations against Ger - many, now that the country is at war, l.Wby not send him to the trenches to ; counter-act the Teutons' gas fire?
