The goal this time is $3,000,000,000 and wll the oversubscription. Thus far the subscriptions cannot be looked upon herwise than disappointing. It is not to be supposed that the rate at which the purchases have been made thus far can be resarded as rep- esentative of the response during the rest two weeks for there can be no such thing as failure when it comes to providing this money for the. gov- erpment’s use in the conduct of the war W includ h half of the allotted time gone, the special drive that was made at the opening. the amount thus. far pledged is not haif of the minimum desired. The country has not come up %o the average daily amount neces- sary to put the loan over the top. That this can be attributed largely to pro- crastination rather than a lack of in- terest is hishly probable. Great num- 8 are delaying their duty, but for the encouragement which it gives to oth- ers who are debating the matter it be- | nooves them to zet busy and come to the front with their dollars. It shoula be remembered connection that it is x in this t a gift which the government is asking for. Uncle Sam isn't asking you to nd over vour dollars. He is simply asking for the joan of them and at a rate of in- terest in view of the security given which makes the investment a decid- attractive one. The Liberty loan bonds are going to present a savinz which the people e going to be able to point to with ride. No one should neglect the chance to be included in this great service to his country.

This was interpreted as mean- ing that the work of General Foch as commander in chief of all the forces was beginning to be felt and the sub- sequent information from the battle- fields s evidence that the reserves are beinz thrown into the fray, In order to counteract the effect of this added assistance the Germans made a desperate effort at different points on the northern part of the line to get added points of advantage by throwing new and fresh forces into the fight at the rate of a division to a mile. Stiffened and braced, the al- lied forces were not oniy able to re- pulse these determined attacks but they were able to regain some sround. Fighting as they have been for sev- eral days with their backs to the wall and determined that no more ground would be vielded, it has been neces- sary to retire In certain localities but nothing vital has been lost and the Germans have been prevented from securing their objectives. The position of the allies is there- fore growinz better each day, and having been unable to carry out their programme the tremendous losses which the Germans have suffered Jeaves them badly weakened for the battering of the wall of resistance which is being reinforced in front of them every day. The allies are ap- parently preparing for the heavy coun- ter thrusts which are expected from them and their tactics must be giv- Ing the enemy serious concern. FOR BETTER TRANSPORTATION. Where the state of New York fell dewn the government ‘has found it necessary to take a hand and while it is to be regretted that it did not move before in the taking over of the barge canal in New York state that the wori of providing the necessary number of barges might have been speeded up, it eannot help being realized that the right move has been made in central- izing the control of this waterway so that the whole transportation prob- lem can be better met. With the governmont directing this waterway it ought to be possible to work it to its capacity if the canal can be secured, and in connec- therewith the decision to take over a portion at least of the traffic on the lakes for the same purpose i|the favorable prices handling to théir ity but the delays which are now experienced and the congestion which has resnlted from the enormous war business should hé greatly decréased. There are also reasons to the taking over of thé coastwise line will bring about a similar result. is a time when we have got fo the best use of every is available. et e SETTLE THE WHOLE A MATTER ,NOW, 5 While the gountry has been experi- encing a shortage of coal for a num- her of months and has been told that the outlook for the next winter is none too good, although évery effort should be made on the part of the er to lay in his supply of winter's coal at the earliest possitle moment, there has been a disagreement between the fuel administration and the railréad ad- ministration. The fuel administration has clatmed that the railroads should pay the same price for their fuel as the other consumers and that there should be no favoritism shown to certain mines by providing them with sufficient cars hecause of the price arrangements. It has further been contended . that enough cars are fot being furnished the bituminous coal mining section té keep up with the production and the failure 10 get as large an output as is expected or as is possible is due to that reason. This first matter was taken up with President Wilson. There was a pres- entation of the faets in the case and the president has decided that the railroads must in the future pay the same price for their coal as other users and that the keeping of certain mines supplieq with cars because of offered must stop. All mines must be served alike as to cars. That is a sensible de- “ision even though some new adjust- aent in another direction has to be nade hecause of this increase in ex- jenses. But now that half of the dis- agreement has been settled,. why not dispose of the other in the same way? If there is anything the raiiroads can do to increase the number of cars, through improved service or new equipment it is time for the adminis- tration to bring It about. This con- troversy ought not to be allowed to drag on when it is known . that the country is going to be the sufferer. JUSTIFIED CRITICISM. Not a little criticism has been in- dulged in regarding the unsatisfactary sesults which have attended the pro- duction of airplanes in this country. Some has also been advanced regard- ing the Liberty motor for the driving of the machines and which is an American product, designed after a thorough stu f all other airplane motors and put forth with the idea of overcoming what were looked upon 4as_defects or shortcominss. There are alrcady reasons- to ber lieve that the criticisms have done just what was intended, which was to overcome the trouble that was pre- venting the production and to get the work on such a basis that the pro- gramme which had become so badly t be carried out though late. is therefore gratifying to read about the succeesful tlight which has been made from the Langley field near Norfolk, Va., to Mineola field on Long Island, a distance of 325 miles which was accomplished in 195 min- utes. or a mile every 45 seconds by an airplane driven by a Liberty mo- tor. It is such accomplishments that the country likes to hear about. That shows not only what can be done but what ought to have been done in the way @f airplane construction menths ag0 so that by this time the large number of flying machines which was promised would be avaflable, in part at least, for our troops in France. The criticisms may mot get all the credit for the improved conditions regarding airplane production but as long as they have helped by bringing in- creased attention to the matter they have been fully justified. EDITORIAL NOTES. It is well to remember that no one will get stuck by licking war savings or thrift stamps. The prisoners who are able to carry out a tar and feather party ought not 1o complain about restrictions. Get vour Liberty bonds. Help not cnly to push the loan over the top but to swell the number of supporters. The man on the corner says: It lakes war to stimulats the cultivation of a backyard garden where the lawn used to be. You are expecting “the boys” to fight valiantly in France. Are you do- ing your part to help them by buy- ing Liberty bonds? For a man of the ability of Charles M. Schwab it took the government a long time to reach a decision on'the necessity of getting his services. The gnestion now is, How long can Germany continue to lose men the way it is doing oni the western front and continue to keep up its massed attacks? More aviaters, or these training to be aviators, are being killed “in- this country than on the battlefieids of France, in propértion to the danger involved. The young woman who has deserted her husband who gave up all his sal- ary and never drank nor smoked prob- ably was dissatisfied because he didn't beat her often enough. o S S Everyone should be anxious to tell the house to house canvassers that though subseriptions have been made to the Liberty loan the willingness to buy more still prevails. A New York judge has ruled that any citizéen may arrest a person mak- ing a seditious statement. And if he cannot do it alone he ought to be able to get plenty to help him. “What have I not dene to preserve the world from these horrors?” the iser is quoted as sAying . after a visit to the battlefield east of Cam- trai. What, indeed, hasn’t hé done to bring these and equally horrible con- ditions about? than ty of ep- pressing her Ameérican colc which excited our forefathers to fight for m that there is no comparison n it and ‘Hun b3 must concern you if it foreshadows a future in which you or your deseend- ants dare not say their soul is their own. As Americans. we all stand foc the largest liberty for all mankind, and. we are in the war for the advance- ment of liberal governments and more freedom for the people in all parts of the éarth. 3 PRy It is difficult to without ‘spaces or punct think that these were once importan inventions. There was a time when the Golden Rule and the Lord's Praper, and the Twenty-Third Psalm, were just letters pushed up together, and about as interpretable to a mod- ern reader as so much Sanscrit. It you wish to'see what a real puzzle is, just leave the spaces out of the word- ing of the Golden Rule, imagine you had never heard of it before and was about to read it. ~What a_work. it must have been to have made a con- cordance of the Bible, ana then to Lave correctly arranged the marginal referénces.. The Bible is now a work of art; but it ¥as originally far from it. And what would a book be with- out an Index? Yet indexing books is a modern art, and scholare even nmow claim that no man can perfectly in- dex a book for a student. But, as im- perfect as the indexing is, Pope in his day was of the opinion that a master of the index had “the eel of science by the tail” Most scholars today mark their own books for ready refer- ence, as well as for gaving special por- tions at quick command for. reperusal. We are told that “clocks will ‘go as they are set: but man, irregular man, is never constant, never certain.” The moving of the clock ahead, the establishment of an industrial econo- mic time regardless of the astrono- mical djvisions of the day has shown that the people are pretty constant to the clock. The 7 o'clock whistle blows it is 6 a. m,, old time, and yet. we spring from the bed at the sound of it and exclatm “My gracious! [ve slept over!” and the resret is just as keen as jt was under the old ,time. And many a housewive growls because her dishes are not out of the way be- fore the clock strikes two although it is really only 1 o'clock. The econ- omy' of day. light is_not a new dis- covery, but our constancy to the, clock regardiess of the_truth is, We keep step to the clock dnd we really like it. a book The man who does not know how to enjoy wealth is simply a slave to it. Many a man of means lives in an at- mosphere of misery. There'is no poverty like that of a man who never feels rich however gteat his material holdings. The urze of the miser has never ceased to be a torment. It is 200d to have money, it is better to know how to spend it and get from it the greatest possible joy while doing the greatest amount of good with it. To use wealth to make others envious is to increase the perils of life: and to use it for excessive pleasure is to in- vite broken health and continuous mis- ery. It is net the bank account which reveals whether a- man is rich or poor, but the joy found in life, Millionaires become bereft of reason and weep because of their poverty, which is not as imaginary as it seems to be: and men of means suicide be- cause their whole lives to them have begome meaningless. The richest man s %aid to be the one who is content with the least. What does all this talk about thrift ‘and thrift stamps amount tos we occasionally hear people ask who lack information; and they shquid be told plainly that it has quitkened economy, or to put it another way, has stopped waste to an amount equal to the full-annual cost of the war to America, as tremendous as that is. The tangible proof of this lies in the statement of increased savings during the year 1917 which are truly ‘amazing. It is estimated that the savings of the whole people of the United States before we entered the war were $3,000,000,000 to $5,000,000,- 000:° but in 1917 these savings grew by leaps and bounds reaching from $14,000,000,000 to $15,000,000,000. Here is an.increase of ten billion dollars, and the total economy of the natlon Tepresents three billion more than the total cash of the war by a billion of dollars every six months; and this is ue to the lift the school children and e working people are ziving to Uncle Sam. Have vou lent a hand yet? This is the army which supports the army at the front, and it is a dis- tinctive honor, to’ have war stamps, war “certificatd or liberty bonds as evidence of your ardor and your loyalty. ‘The German politician tells any representative of a democracy that his country “is not.ruled from the gutter,” and he cannot be made to believe its preservation is due to the people. He ‘believes in the revolver and the strap for the common laborer and seven shillings a day for skillell labor, or about five marks in their money. The one thing not believed in the lerland is the American German whio believed in democracy, and if he goes to Germany and talks of the rule ‘of the people for the people he has got to smeak into secret places and whisper the sentiments of Wash- ington and Lincoin: A good many Germans let their enthusiasm for their race overwhelm their rationality, and we find them antagonistic to their best interests. They -hgve gotten ‘weaith in this country and attained positions impossible to them in any other country: and those who are to- day playing the part of ingrates will have ample time 'to regret it.- Arrogance in power gone mad. There is no saving gracc in any power save that of love and truth. Bring- ing the nations of the earth to the verge of famine is a crime. Wk- ing the geography of earth is villiany —the remaking of the manhood of the earth is viftue. It needs no . argu- ment to prove that Chapin was right when he eaid: “Not armies, not na- tions, have advanced the race; but hére and there in the course of ages, an individual has stood up and cast his shadow over the world” The greatest individuals are not com- manders of men but commanders of self. It is the virtue and honesty of the individual which lends - strength and luster to the state.

Like many other cities, some smaller anq some jarger, Norwich extends a big lot of hospitable waoden—shingle —roofs to the always eager gaze of the fire flend, and in accordance with the steady habits, accepts the fact of its small fire loss quite as a matter of eourse, without inquiring as to how or why that loss is so small. many fools in the world is the fact thatso many knaves are able to ex- t.

Sunday Morning Talk TARRYING BY THE STUFF. time has come when every American of military age not in one of Uncle Sam’s uniforms of some variety or other must give a reason why. When peace is finally declared, we shall con- tinue to give due respect to those who fought it out in_arms in the world's supreme crisis. The celebration when he boys come home” will be worth But there must be no understanding of civilians, who have fought iwith- out guns. No_decorations - will be pinned on their breasts; they not been mentioned in despatche: Yet. they have helped to win war, too. They are entitled to share of the honors. The ancient rule of King David is a fair one: his part is that goeth down in battle, so shall his part be that tarrieth by the stuff.” In some regards, indesd, it may ap- pear that the stay-at-home worker has_carried the more difficult burden. Nothing of the pomp and circum- stance of war is his; he knows few of the incentives of the soldiers’ life. No band plays inside the factory that will often send ing “over the top.” of actual battle, his occupation may be as hard and scarcely less dangerous to life and health than is service in the army. regiment sing- his’ circle of acqugintance, candidates for the badge of honor, scores mothers and fathers, brothers and sisters and sweethearts, would be in the list. It requires no ordinary cour- age to send the boys off with smiles and then go back to the racking wor- | ry of the lonz months of war. The patience and self control apparent in thousands of American homes is noth- ing short of sublime. In how many cases is witnessed the truth of Mil- ton's lin “They also serve who only stand and wait!” Only graduaily has the average cit- izen come to appreciate the magni- tude of the present conflict. This is no war between armigs, or even be- tween nations alone, but between rad- ically different ideals of buman civ- ilization. One ideal or the other is doomed. Tn a hook written since Au- gust, 1914, the German historian Mey- er says: “The truth of the whole mat- ter undoubtedly is that the time has arrived when two distinct forms of State organizations must face each other in a life-and-death struggle.” In a struggle like that every ome of us has a part. There are hundreds of different ways of doing one's “bit.” Shells are not the only munitions, but potatoes are, as well, and corn and coal and cotton cloth = and all manufactured artioles of any kind. Bvery form of industrial, agricultural or social effort any of us can put forth is a contribution toward vie- tory. In no war the world has ever seen have soldiers at the front and men, women and children behind the lines so been comrades-in-arms. As Senater Borah said recently, in 2. striking plea on' the floor of 'the United States Senate. “You may put wpon the Western front all the - sol- diers that you can build ships to car- ry, but if thers is not behind them & united and determined people, aroused and thoroushly —understanding the fact that we are all a part of the con- test. we shall not succeed: in the end.” Whether one's service be here, or “gver there,” he may know that it counts in the grand result.
