This spectacie is disgusting and disconcerting, If there were not in congress so many dear old ladies, so many doddering dodos, these gentle- men of great wealth would be taken by the scruff of their gilded necks and shaken down without more ado. Wealth has got to help. Wealth has got to bear its share of war's cost. Wealth cannot dodge be- hind specious pleas and tricky excuses. of America: who have la down their lives in France, we will get a new point of view. Maybe we will come to feel it then. Here is a little story that came over the seas to Seattle in a letter from France, which illustrates better than volumes the spirit that is animating the French people: A young man was mobilized the very first day of the war, leaving behind him his wife, who was soon to become a mother. While he was still in camp, he learned that a little son had arrived at his home Borrowing a bicycle, and taking the fearful risk of being ac. cused of desertion in wartime, he rode all night and spent an hour with his wife and baby, returning to his post without detection, From that time on he fought bravely for France until he was blinded by shrapne| shell. Now he is back home on a tiny farm, trying to pick up the threads of his broken life To a visitor who saw the man’s little son cuddling against his knee, the poilu said: “YOU KNOW, | SAW HIM, | SAW HIM ONE TIME!” That was ali—no repining, no complaint, no railing against fate and fortune, but the simple, thankful ement that at le once before the great darkness it had been permitted him to see atriotic E IN Seattle do not yet FEEL this war. when the newspapers publish the first cas the boy he loved. That man's every-day patriotism, his love for country, hie willingness to sacrifice all for France without question, is typical of French men and women Until we can match this spirit, until we can resolve to throw all we have and are into the ccales against brutal German mill tarism and despotism, America will not be fully awake, will not be doing her full duty to herself and nations everywhere that as- pire to freedom and peace. A And the most jobs ever. And the biggest food crops ever to be harvested, despite winter wheat. Three lovely aces in hand, Mr. Businessman! One night there was a man sitting in a poker game who was dealt three lovely aces. He got chilblains, refused in fear to ante and draw, and told the other fellows to play out the deal. This man went thru life clothed in ra gs and on an empty stomach and was buried in potters’ field This is a short story, but true. We were holding three deuces that same deal, lent the man a Car ticket to get home on. ND in the meantime, we must keep smiling, and keep going.
