EMPLOYER: HOW MANY WHITE STARS ON YOUR SERVICE FLAG? , = Ss { | Here is a model service flag for the American | busitiess house today. In the center is a golden) fér a soldier who has “gone west.” . Three! of the blue stars in the corners are covered with} q - stars of white, slightly smaller, showing that | | three employes who went to war have been taken | back; and, inthe margin, three other white stars show three soldiers employed who did not before work for the firm. * * * Mr. Business Man, are you taking back the’ soldier boys who went from your business into the army? H “Are you finding places for other soldier boys | who come to you seeking work? | olf you are, you can make your example felt, through the medium-of-your.service flag, and -per-| form. a duty as patriotic as that which first led | to its display: z i Whenever one of your boys comes back ‘to his job, put a white star, slightly smatter> over one of the blue, thus leaving a rim of blae appearing! around the white. | Whenever you hire a soldier boy whom you did | not employ. before, put a white’ star in the red} border of your service flag. | If any of your boys have given their lives in| the service, you will, of course, have placed al golden star for each over the white of the service | flag. i Two years ago our boys began to leave their places in civil life to cross the water and fight} the battles for the freedom of the world. | As each-one left you proudly placed a white, star on your service flag and showed to the world | the loyalty of your workers. ! Today they are coming back. | Others have filled their places while they were| gone, or the places have not been filled. But most, of them went with the promise that there would) be aplace for them when they “returned. } If’s time for you now to show your loyalty, to them. They have given months of their lives, made money sacrifice, often suffered in: health ‘or been crippled: by war. reas You owe it to them to ‘so adjust your busniess that those whe want to return to you may do so. : You may be twice as proud of your service flag | bee when white stars cover the blue. And if there’s 4 a well filled margin of white stars you'll be help- } ing Uncle Sam to solve. his biggest problem, the t problem of the returning soldier. | le i BILL'S BIRTHDAY ree We are sentenced to this world for life! Up to a certain age, we want the years to fly by, and birthdays are festive occasicns. To the juvenile mind, maturity means much that-lures, attracts and beckons. Long trousers and skirts net quite so short promisé cherished opportunities and individual importance. But comes a period when life’s substantial gord things are ours, understood and appreciated. Then 1 the end can be seen mocking, as we feel, each Le year, drawn nearer to: it. i Birthdays take on a solemn significance when the winter of life is upon us. True, too, they bring with the sting a fair share of happiness. If the past has been lived to a purpose, the joy of | gazing back offsets the dread of looking ahead. - Life is the sentence we serve as penalty for; ~ progress and evolution. . It is the one sentence which many would have interminable, never to -end—particularly the most shortsighted, the most successful and the most selfish. The shortsighted forget that there must be limit to have value. The less there is of a thing the more its demand. The harder we have to .

In the Galerie des Beaux Arts in Paris isa beau- tiful statue conceived by a scilptor who was so poor that he lived and worked in a small garret. When his clay model—his masterpiece—was al- most completed, a heavy frost fell upon the city. He knew if the water in the interstices of the clay ;should freeze the beautiful lines would be dis- | F=/terted. So he wrapped his bed clothes around}. the clay image to preserve it. - The next morning he was found dead—frozen =a sacrifice, but his ideal was saved’ and other hands gave it enduring form in marble. Without his willingness to sacrifice everything for his ideal, this wonderful work of: art. would), have been destroyed and it, along with his name, would have passed into oblivion. Instead his name has been cemented into the sands cf time for all eternity and his wonderful work will live to inspire generations after genera- tions to greater efforts in the creation of the beau-! tiful. Just now, this preservation of an ideal is espe-; cially significant to Americans. Holland might have improved her prospects by declaring war against Germany at 10:45 a. m.; that day it stopped. : Posierity sees both the good and bad:in a great mar. His contemporaries see only the side re- flected by their:prejudice. His pockefs may be-empty and his pants may be | patched; but -if-he keeps an- indeperident’ mind in aclean body he is a king in‘his own tight. [os WITH THE EDITORS | ONCE MORE MEXICO | ‘In some sections of the American press there mi is plain evidence that a propaganda against Mex- ico is getting under way. There is also much in- trigue gcing on under the surface. American in- ter in Mexico are by no means resigned to the disabilities the Carranza regime has imposed! upon them. Even less are the various religious groups in the United States resigned to the status accorded to their co-workers in Mexico. Besides, the impression prevails widely in America that’ during the war Mexico, if neutral, was malevo-| lently neutral, and would have been pleased with; German victory. This impression is mistaken. | Mexico had hep pro-Germans and pro-Allies, but the overwhelming majority of the Mexicans were genuinely neutral. But mistaken or not, the im- pression has its potency and will increase the chance that occasion may be found for a strong demand for intervention. The Mexican govern- ment, if it is wise, will take cognizance of this situation and do what is possible to reduce the! friction between the two nations. The friends; of Mexican independence in this country ought not to be subjected to embarrassment through a needlessly intransigeant attitude on the part of Mexico.—The New Republic. A LIVING WAGE Dr. W. G. Ogburn of the war labor board testi-' fied that a family of five in New York city needs $1,500 a year to live upon; $1,800 if it is to live in comfort, according to American standards. The man must earn $5 a day, or more than one mem- ber of ‘he family must work for wages, or they wul sutfer in physique or in social value. These facts were elicited before a subcommit- tee investigating the harbor strike, and bear upon the wage scale that gives cocks, deckhands and firemen a monthly rate netting $840 a year if no; time is lost. They apply equally to all trades and professions while prices remain as high as now. Dr. Ogburn’s figures allow $615 for food. A man doing hard manual labor needs more food than a clerk, and in other respects requirements vary. The great crises of illness and death recur to swamp all budget reckcnings. Car fares and; other incidentals. vary much. But as a general statement the estimate is surely not excessive. Cost of living advancés, and wages follow. Wages advance, and cost of living rises for those who buy the product\of the labor. There is no|- break in the endless chain until, somewhere, prices begin to fall. One real and great gain in facing the problem is the realization, more general now than ever before, that the working familys health, comfort and self-respect as affected by: family in- -*The successful forget that if the theories of|come are not » private matter but the concern of}.
