CONSCRIPT FOR FARMS. | F THE GOVERNMENT expects the farmer to assure the I Nation’s war strength by producing record crops this year, | there is something it must do for him. | it must provide him with farm labor. It must furnish him) with hands to plant, cultivate and harvest. | Even in peace it has become harder and harder for the farmer to get help. Against the high wages of the munition factories and the attractions of the town, what he can offer makes scant | appeal to labor. Healthy out-of-door work, good food and fair, pay have little chance against factory wages and the “movies. With the Nation at war, with army, navy and a hundred war. industries clamoring for men by the million, the farmer is going | to be left without any help at all, unless the Government takes | specific measures to protect him. If selective drafting means anything it means distributing working as well as fighting strength in « manner that shall keep | indispensable production and industry at # maximum of volume and efficiency. Under that or any other system it would be strange policy to forget the farmer. He must supply the food which is the one, real producer and sustainer of all fighting force. National en- durance depends on him. One of the first things the Government should do, then, is to find men best fitted for farm labor, exempt them from military service and put them promptly to ploughing and sowing. “Bread bullets,” somebody has said, “are going to win the! war.” In that case the farmer is the super-munition maker. Give | him all the room and all the labor he needs. tp Even as. American labor pledges itself to take no step that shall weaken the national defense, the Supreme Court of the United States, by its decision in the Oregon case, strengthens the safeguards won by labor for certain of its deepest interests. That {s just. There must be no sly shifting of the burdens of this war, ep THE PUBLIC, TOO, MUST LEARN T* shooting of an old man by @ sentry guarding the elevated tracks of the New York Central in upper Park Avenue is| another of those neédless tragedies—and it is to be feared there will be many more—-for which the hastiness of unseasoned soldiers and the failure of the public to grasp the seriousness of guard duty in war time are about equally responsible. | Sayings of Mrs. Solomon le By Helen Rowland Copyright, 1917, by The Prem Publishing Co, (The New York Brening World.) H" now, my Daughter, what dost thou know of “Preparedness”? For, lo, the Armed Neutrality which existeth between two nations before War is a sweet and gentle thing beside that which existeth between a pair of lovers before Marriage, Verily, vertly, who is 90 easily delighted as a man that seeketh to WIN a damsel? For all her ways are right {n his eyes! And in his rapture he declare! “Boloved, how PERFECT is thy taste! Lo, all thy hats are dreams and all thy frocks are visions! How proud and vainglorious thou makest me when thog walkest before me in the public restaurant! For th eyes of all men follow after thee in admiration ang envy. Yea, the sweetness of thy smile, and the bright ness of thy cheek, and the fragrance of thy sachet, they Sill all my dream: | “Lo, when she {s MINE then shall I guide her in the ways of wisdom | and economy, and make plain unto hor the folly of her extravagance, Yea, from gay pioture hats unto little toques shall I convert her, and from ime ported gowns to simple ready-mades. From the using of lip rouge and from soaking herself in expensive SCENT shall I break her! 14, in all things shall she array and demean herself modestly as MY wife! For we shall then be ‘one,’ and I alone know WHICH one!” And while a dainsel seeketh to bait a man she murmureth sweetly: “How wonderful is thy Judgment, O my Beloved! How charmingly simple are thy tastes! Yea, I rejoice that thou art above foppishness an@ | frivolity and fashions. I adjure thee NEVER put on a dinner coat when thou callest to see me. For I despise formality and, above all things, I love to see a man COMFORTABLE. Yea, I pray thee continue to smoke thy favorite pipe in my presence. For it is SO chummy!" Yet {nm her heart she murmureth softly: “Oh, wait until I GET him! For my first duty shal! be to wean bim from that detestible PIPE! Yea, from the wearing of sport shirts shall I | deliver him, and to evening clothes shall I convert him! Verily, verily, I shall put the ‘finishing touches’ on him. Yea, I shall polish him up, and tone }im down, and add unto him all the ‘modern improvements,’ so thas not even his own mother shall recognize him!” Thus in the hour of courtship do they prepare for WAR. As enemies, before the declaration of hostilities, do they exchange civik itles and bluff each other, sweetly saying: “Behold, how perfectly we are mated! “How completely do we ‘UNDERSTAND’ each other!” “Yea, how CONGENIAL we are!” Yet doth each secretly plan to mine the marine the other's Illusions concerning himself. Why then shall any one be amazed when the honeymoon goeth dowm | with a bang and the Castle of Dreams {s shattered as a Louse beneath w | bomb from a Zeppelin? | For this, my Daughter, {s the armed neutral | from proceed all the horrors of Divorce!
