The government has organized a bureau to furnish help for the farmer. It has strained its publieity departmnet in rounding up help for the great ship-building plants. We have gone.into the highways and byways in search of labor for the war industries plants; and have extended a helping hand to this industry and that. In fact, we have been busy playing the good samaritan until we have developed a perfect mania for useful service. - But with it all we have strangely overlooked the one most deserving of help—and the one who most needs our help—the patient, uncomplaining housewife. ¥ Who'’s going to help Mother? ; ~Mother used to have help. Heretofore- father,-son, daughter and the hired man and woman could be called on for various acts of usefulness about the house. "Father had some spare time before breakfast that he could turn-to Mother’s account. Son was rarely too busy to run her errands... Daughter spent the greater part of her time in Mother’s: company and { was her good right hand. The hired man could find time-for ! useful bits of service while the girl help was always at hand. Now all that is changed. : WOODEN SHINGLES ALL RIGHT There are-only a dozen or so of the larger citles where the use of wooden ‘shingles-is specially -barred. - At least 45 of the largest citles, including New Chicago, . Philadelphia, San Franclsco, Dallas, Tex.; clent proof.that the advantages of the wood-shingle roof in residential dis- tricts are still recognized. er unfertunate for the logic of some of those most’ ‘strongly opposed:to the use: of ‘wooden shingles that they house their own families under such a roof.” An investigation revealed further that some cities after enduring the re- L sults of an anti-shingle ordinance un- ; el address til their patience became ' exhausted homes ras compared with the corre- of the 47 flres: involying losses of more than $500,000 in 1917 throughout the country, only one; occurred ‘in a -resldence section where wooden shin- gles predominate.—~Exchange.

Son is f in the army or in some “needful industry,” and is frequently L& working overtime.* Daughter is pounding the typewriter keys in an office early and late. The hired man has faded away. to join the great ranks of laborers in some public works, and the hired girl is now a nurse or a Red Cross worker, ! Mother is alone! ; ‘And Mother is not only alone with her work, but her.work has increased and seems destined to keep on increasing. She must see that the inner man of the entire family is satisfied three times daily. As this is an era of strict economy; old clothes must be made to do longer duty and the patch; endorsed at Washington, must be applied to various and sundry gar- ments. Neither must garments be worn too long between wash- ing. - In the intervals Mother must care for the milk and butter, feed the chickens and pigs, and as the men folks are very busy, must frequently take the produce to market. Her spare time, formerly devoted to social duties, is now given to selling Liberty s Bonds, War Savings Stamps, and raising funds for the 7Y. M. C. A. And with it all.she somehow—God only knows how— Enanages to-sew and knit many needed. garments for the Red TOSS. - Is Mother.busy? Well, yes. .Can Mother stand the strain indefinitely? - God and Mother only know. -One thing is sure, she will keep going till she falls. : But with all our help. devices, hadn’t we better devise . some means of lightening the strain on Mother? Mother hasn’t asked it, and, God bless her heart, she isn’t going to ask it. But the need exists just the same. Let’s think about it. ! —o0: GLORY ENOUGH FOR ALL “I have lived both in Germany and the United States and I believe that America alone could beat the Germans.” Lord Northeliffe thus informs the Petit Parisien; and his flattering words will be appreciated over here. But we hope that it will never fall to the United States to have to beat the Germans without assistance. Our allies who have thus far kept up the warfare against the Hun are not yet bled white and they will hold the line till we can adequately reinforce them; and then, all together,.the allied armies will cross the Rhine. That we shall make the largest contribution to the final campaigns;of the ‘war. is un- doubted. That we shall be entitled to the credit of having produced victory will be the verdict of history. But there will be glory enough for all; and luckily Lord Northcliffe’s belief will not have to be put to the test. - S o ()it KERENSKY WATCHFULLY WAITED. Kerensky says that he does not intend to go back to politics, but that he will devote himself to inculcating the lesson which |. Russia has for the world. In view of the fact that the greatest of all the morals to be drawn from the Russian. muddle is that which arises from the contemplation of Kerensky’s fatal weak- ness when Lenine and Trotzky. first-threatened his regime; we can_think of no better agency for spreading the lesson than Kerensky himself. 0 Now that wheat is safe, don’t complain if we have extreme heat. It means good corn-growing weather for the middle west. Special Map Coupon Bemidji Pioneer Pub. Co. I Bemidji, Minn.
