Now, dear fellow Americans, do you think that those ' Belgian children who are beaten into learning German in : their German-controlled schools will want to study German AFTER peace restores the whole of Belgium to the Bel- gians? Will THEY ever want their children to study Ger- man? And, will those other little tots who have to have gas masks hanging ever ready near their desks ever want to ae study German language or literature or anything German after peace comes to them and Hun poison gas never again can frighten all of them and kill some of them? These school children will have had enough of Ger- man. e Still, there is Philander P. Claxton, United States com- missioner of education, who says that this movement to eliminate German from the public schools of the United States is nothing but a “form of hysteria,” and that he anti-Germanism in American schools. The only difference between our children and these Belgian children is that it was easier for the Huns to get to Belgium than to America. If the United States had been U A simple transposition of letters spells both—reserves and reverses. A simple rearrangement of conditions will produce either. i These two words, so alphabetically akin, carry the relationship into their meanings. The intactness of your reserves depends upon the ex- tent of your reverses. The seriousness of your reverses is accentuated or minimized by the amount of your re- serves. Wherever either figures, both are factors. Each de- pends upon the other. the points of solvency and liquidation. A defensive warfare is one of reserves and reverses. The allied offensive is designed to continue Germany's reverses till her last effective reserves ar thrown into the fray. It is at once perceivable that the frequency and weight of allied thrusts determine the speed with which the length and strength of the Hun parries will be diminished. Thru all of life’s vicissitudes, the principle of reverses versus reserves stands unchanged. One financier lightly re- gards a setback which would be another’s calamity. One man’s vital forces magnetize his personality, while another's, depleted by excesses, constitute a diluted form of energy that is his last reserve. . Tho no reverses are anticipated thru indiscretion, negli- gence or willful disregard of natural laws, it is to our indi- vidual self-interest to amass reserves all along life's battle- front. For those who do, the element of chance has no terrors and the specter of worry is an unfamiliar vision, Linen Shower Week The world supply of linen is running short. Thousands of yards must be used for airplanes that are now being manufactured in vast quantity. Consequently there is a shortage that hits the Red Cross, Of course this organization must be supplied.

OU’VE got it—every human being is born with it—your large intestine, or colon. It is a large tube—a reservoir or sewer—intended to collect waste matter and remove it from the body. Plug it up with waste, neglect it, and you’re sick on your feet. The waste matter stagnates, under- goes decay, fermentation and germ action. Dan- gerous poisons are produced, that can easily be absorbed and carried all over the body. Allow constipation to become established, and you are liable to become definitely and miserably sick—and not on your feet either. You have broken Nature's laws. Better be kind to her. Keep the danger zone clean, with a regular bowel movement, and Nature will thank you, and pay you back in gold coin— health, good nature, and a feeling of eagerness for your daily task. A large proportion of almost every form of sickness is caused or made worse by the poisons ; produced as a result of constipation.
