City ‘Carrier\t ‘a’ OLDEST (Katablished 1878) a —————— WHY NOT BE OPTIMISTIC? Our French and British ‘allies are “constantly warning us against an excess of optimism. “All is going well, but do not be too sanguine of success,” they tell us. But why not? ' x Optimism is*the most pronounced . American characteristic. It makes our millionaires, builds our great cities, makes us a great people—and WINS OUR WARS. If President Lincoln had given way to the pes- simists the Union would have lost’ the Civil war. If Washington, who only: won one victory, had not been “sanguine of success” there would have been no United States. P So why not be optimistic now, when we are face to face with our greatest need for optimism? We have just: won our first great victory on the western front. Why shouldn’t we cheer and throw. our hats in the air? Supposing the Germans do turn about and give our boys’a.licking. Will that dim the glory of] | a. stern parent drubbed’us. good and: inquired’ the bt why of-our adventure, we blurted on: our newest ; Chateau Thierry, or lessen the triumph of the Marne? * - Will it diminish the glorious optimist that found expression in the reply of an American general who, when told by his French, superior that he could not possibly reach the ‘objective he had selected, ‘said: “Tie hell we can’t! Any place I ask my boys to! go,ithey’ll GO!” Will it dampen ‘the. spirit of thosd Yanks of ours whose only comment when seriously wound: Heinies any more!” j Depression, may be the’ ‘mental attitude of a British Tommy after a reverse, But not ofan ‘American Yank! : x The pessimist says: “Germany MAY win the war.” : The optimist replies: “Germany SHALL NOT win the war!” 4 We would respectfully. advise our allies to fol- low. the American example rather than depre: cate it. Let Germany have the despondency, the pes- Simism, the depression. OPTIMISM WILL WIN THE WAR! Haven’t you noticed how hardy and healthy are the Sammi¢s who come home on furlough? WAR MOTHERS Supreme institution of the universe; most sac- red office in the house of creation; nearest to the source.of all good—motherhood! - ‘| A-monument to fortitude, heroic sacrifice, ten-|‘ derness, self-denial, uplifting influence, example, devotion and sublime patience is motherhood. — Of us all, mother alone knows what it is to give, give, give. And now she must give again. , She is a war mother.. Mars demands her man-child. She sees him snatched away, but through her tears of anguish catches 4 glimpse of the grand| American republic, seems at times out of, propor-| purpose he serves, the true mission she has per- formed. Real peace possesses. her, though the heart aches when the mind forgets for a moment and loses that true perspective. She is‘even more glorious, more wonderful, more angelic as a war mother...

Themistocles made the Athenian navy invinci- ble and saved Greece from the Persian:onslaughit. Cornelia was the magnificent mother of that in- defatigable warrior. and Roman/general, Tiberius Gracchus, who died in battle. Gaius Gracchus, a younger son, was likewise a dauntless fighter. Rather than die at enemy ‘hands, he had his slave kill him. , ; Some ladies were discussing .the brilliance, worth and number of their gems at the home of|that a lunatic German’ should be disrespectful and Cornelia. She was silent until her two boys, Tibe- rius and Gaius-entered. ‘These are my jewels!” proudly exclaimed this.Greek goddess in the flesh, drawing them close. Every American war mother today is a poten- tial Euterpe, a modern Cornelia. : with chapters in every city, town ai amlet, , will). perpetuate the, glory of war: ‘motherhood.

Our ‘sleep was filled with nightmares, the darkness bedizened! by mys-| tic shapes and weird noises. , Our‘hut in the woods back of Smith's barn was an arsenal of. wooden guns,-swords, wicked ‘look- ing daggers plus enough cap pistols to equip the 25) A, E.
