"Yale College and Anthony Tay lor, Junior, have parted company, by mutual consent," said the latter. "Thrown out again, eh?" "Not again," said Mr. Taylor, late of New Haven, severely, "For the last time. The third and last, incidentally." "Zat so?" said Jimmie. "What you gotta do to get thrown out of college like that, Mr. Taylor?" "In my case," said Tony, "it was merely a question of conflicting principles." "You don t say , " Jimmie was a good listener. "Principles that are at this very moment changing the face of civi lization, Jimmie. The right of the common man to earn his daily bread. The right of self-determi- notion for the masses. The right of the proletariat against the mon ey-grasping capitalist." "Which side were you on, Mr. Taylor?" "The side of freedom, of course, Jimmie. You ought to know that!" "Which freedom, Mr. Taylor?" "The poor man's, of Course." Tony Bet down his drink. "Do you realize, Jimmie, that only a hun dred rich men practically own the wealth of the United States of America?" "And isn't it your father, that's one of them, Mr. Taylor?" "I wouldn't be surprised," said Tony, sadly. "A fellow can pick his pals, Jimmie but he can't pick his progenitor. You know that. Not "Of course I do," declared Tony earnestly. "I believe the rich should share their wealth. I think every one should share everything, for that matter." Jimmie attempted a joke. "Even their women Mr. Taylor?" "You can have my share of worn en," said Tony, wryly. "If it weren't ; for the women of America, Jimmie this wouldn t be the first capital istic country of the world. Women are parasites, Jimmie just born parasites. But speaking of sharing the wealth" "So they threw you out of col lege, eh," said Jimmie, anticipating him. "You-a millionaire's son, wanting to be a communist." He scratched his head. "Maybe I'm tight, Mr. Taylor." "Nothing of the sort," declared Jimmie, with warmth. "Commu nism will never breed in America. My kind of radicalism, however, is common sense. We don't need " Here's a customer needs drink, interrupted Jimmie.

Quite a few are likewise concerned regarding the labor situation as it affects our effectiveness against our overseas enemy. Fathers and mothers who have sober sons to sacrifice for our freedom, are greatly concern ed, and justly so. (Every son who goes to camp and to their field of service, will be directly or indirect ly, affected by the freedom of ac cess to legalised liquor. However, I there is this one consoling thought not every son in camp, or in ac tive service will surrender to John Barleycorn, thank God I John Barleycorn proposes to do three things for his patrons. First, to lessen the powers of physical endurance; Second, to lower men tal acumen; and third, to weaken personal morale. The sober soldiers must not only carry on, on his own, but will be compelled to do more than the other to compensate for the delinquencies of the drinker. "It is not fair," we say, nay, it is a shame! We hear a great deal about con servation. Conserve rator. blades, tin cans, discarded metals and goods of every kind. So far, a good. But on the other hand, we make intoxicating liquor from grain, sugar and molasses, which lowers the physical endurance, the mental acumen, and the morale of our men at the front. Is this patriotic national conservation? War or no war, John Barley corn is a national enemy, and an outright abomnation. His aim is to destroy everything that goes into the making of a good hus band, a good citizen, or a good sol dier. - : WM. H. NEESE THAT'S THEIR NEXT PROBLEM A farmer visited his son's col lege.

"That's a great idea," agreed the farmer. "When you find it, what are you going to keep it in?"
