Ny carrier, ott — Pebttanea d War Mothers in the house of creation; nearest to the true source of all good—Motherhood! ly 1 A monument to fortitude, heroic sacrifice, tenderness, tience is Motherhood. - f us all, Mother alone knows what it is to give, give, And now she must give again, She is a War Mother. demands her man-child. She sees him snatched away, but thru her tears of yma catches a glimpse of the grand purpose he serves, true mission she has performed. Real peace possesses her, tho the heart aches when the mind forgets for a mo- ment and loses that true perspective. She is even more glorious, more wonderful, more an- as a War Mother. Like Euterpe, who mothered Them- les, she is strong that her boy may be strong. Themistocles made the Athenian navy invincible and Greece from the Persian onslaught. Cornelia was the magnificent mother of that indefatig- able warrior and Roman general, Tiberius Gracchus, who died in battle. Gaius Gracchus, a younger son, was like- wise 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 Cornelia. She was silent until her two boys, Tiberius 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 potential re a modern Cornelia. e has much in common with all other War Mothers. The organization of War Mothers of America, with in every city, town and hamlet, will perpetuate the of War* Motherhood. Tt will speed nimble knitting fingers; bring comfort to those whose vision is grief-blurred, fostering faith thru association with the strong. Posterity will pay heart-homage at the shrine of our War Mothers. Their hallowed spirit will waft a-down the ies, a sweet breath of the noble and sublimely beau- everlasting tribute to hallowed Motherhood and the glorification of womankind. Save! This is a war admonition upon the city as well as upon the individual. The city must not spend + many thousand dollars extra on fancy brick paving on | Rainier ave. when it con save the money by less ex- _ pensive surfacing. Why Americans Are Fighters : After all, fighting ability is not a race characteristic. i will and a good reason for fighting have much do with it. The only racial Americans are the Indians. The rest us are a high mix, with Irish, German, Scotch, English, talian, Dutch, Scandinavian, Polish, Slav and other kinds blood in our American veins. All Europe contributed thru the brief period of our history to make what we call the American. And if the us can fights well it is because he knows what he is thting for and what he is not fighting for. - He knows he isnot fighting to oppress a weak people ‘or to rob anybody of land or anything else. He knows he is not fighting for money, or because ‘some crazy kaiser orders him to fight. He knows he is fighting for humanity, to save men, “women and children from the crushing oppression of autocrac lime ‘y. He knows he is fighting for ideals—to make the world @ better place to live in—to hurl the mighty from their ‘seats of power and lift up his fellow humans to a higher “state of civilization and happiness. And he as gladly risks his life in this war for hu- as he would jump into a raging torrent to save life of an unknown child. They say the Canadians, the Australians and the is are wonderful fighters. Isn't it because of what they know they are fighting for? For the same reason, won't the British, the French and the Italians be better fighters now that their govern- ments havé something more inspiring to fight for than Mere bits of land—something that appeals to the noblest qualities in any red-blooded man, no matter what his race or language? It takes something more than stern discipline and blind obedience to make a superior soldier. thing more now inspires the soldiers of the allied armies. Arkansas republicans have concluded not to put a ticket in the field this year, but to devote all their ener- gies to winning the war. We await with breathless ex- wctation to hear from the Vermont democrats.—New ork Morning Telegraph. - Cest La Guerre Pawns dre Consider the ‘case of T. J. Logan of the Plaza hotel of this city. He likes cream with his oatmeal for breakfast. He paid two-bits to get it Saturday—with what result? } “They gave me oatmeal and milk,” is his plaint. He paid for cream—and got. milk. kept the cream—and also Logan's kale. C’est la guerre, Mr. Logan. If you get paper shoes and pay for leather, c’est la guerre. If you get smaller portions and pay larger prices, cest la guerre. If the coal operators rob you at the mine and at every step from the mine to your house, c’est la guerre. If you must cut down on sugar, but may eat all the candy you want, c'est la guerre. You get the food administrator sore if you complain—and the fuel adminis- trator. And the landlord will raise your rent if you so much as let out a whimper. 7 i] C'est la guerre—it’s the war. The Germans on this occasion seem to be more ad- vanced against than advancing.—Newark News, fa 11 PR. The Your Uncle Will Be There Maybe we're overdoing things in one direction.
