Over there our allies are giving lives to halt them, Here the least we do is to invest in Thrift Stamps. | The Huns are Memorial Day, 1918, brings a list of the fresh graves of sol- diers to the women of America. But many of the graves are in a far land. A golden star replaces the star of blue on the service flag which honors a man who has laid down his life for Liberty. But those who mourn can never sufficiently honor the dead, and there is a ceaseless ache in the hearts of bereaved mothers and wives and sweethearts because the wreath which is due the lost soldier boy, May 30, cannot be put in its rightful place over his still heart. The grief of these women offers all grateful patriots an oppor- tunity to add a new and beautiful significance to the unique military meaning which is attached to Decoration Day. What can better convey this meaning than the color and fra- grance and freshness of flowers? Therefore, why not let flowers carry their message of comfort and sympathy to the women who mourn for their soldiers—dead this year? Make it a duty as well as a valued privilege to send flowers on Memorial Day to every home where a service flag carries a golden star. Never mind whether or not you were a personal friend of the dead. Do not hesitate because you are unacquainted with his rela- tives. Friend or stranger, you are a sad story in its golden star! A man from that house has perished—that you may live. And you can never, never pay your debt. But you can express your gratitude, in all humility and sin- cerity. Many is the time that the non-combatant, woman or man, has wished for some personal, intimate, yet delicate way to convey his feeling to the relatives of Americans who have fought and who have fallen for the Stars and Stripes. What finer sentiment can you carry in your heart than ap- preciation of the heroic dead? Do not hide that feeling. Try this new plan of sending flowers to some hero's nearest and dearest on Memorial Day. Heap your blossoms before the door above which shines the golden star of sacrifice. Send the single spray of wild flowers, or the gorgeous cluster of hothduse orchids, according to your means. But do your share in some way to give to this Decoration Day the new meaning it has earned thru the blood of true Americans—the choicest of their generation. It is the least you can do for the family which has bravest and best. ° a "When tools of Arizona mine operators foreibly de- 1,186 copper mine workers from Bisbee, Arizona, summer, the outrage was camouflaged by calling the I, W.

Finally one of them is solving hg in a simple, wholesome American way. Wm. ‘HH. Taft has calmly and earnestly tackled any job that offered a chance to help wake up America and win the war for democracy. a He hds temporarily given up his work of teaching Yale _ students the law, in order that he might teach the whole _ American people how a patriotic ex-president can make of | himself a live asset instead of a dead liability. 3 Ex-President Taft now works at a desk in Washington, bringing to bear his ability and common sense on one of the vital war problems—labor. That's democracy. Bi Probably the aircraft program won't be entirely satisfactory until Uncle Sam turns it over to the ama- teur experts and their various societies. Washington and Oregon hotel men vote to stand by the administration. Fine! Now let’s see how they re- dude the prices when they reduce the service. Mebbe if Uncle Sam took over the telegraph com- panies, Western Union messages might get thru as fast as ordinary letters. No politics in Olympia this year, is the latest re- port.
