It is not a rich man's war, not a poor man's war, not the war of any group, but of the whole world which be- lieves in the rights of men to govern themselves and to live their lives as they elect to live. One's interest mounts in any move- ment in which one has a part. A part purchased with a thrift certificate will create that interest which will lead to other sacrifice, other econ- omy, other endeavor to be of service to the nation. Not everybody has been able, in these days of hi.yh cost of everything which must be bought, to find the money for the purchase of a liberty bond, even upon the easy terms of payment which have been offered with each loan. The pride which is felt by those who by sacri- fice have been able to apply their savings to the purchasing of a bond, may be had by those others, who have not been able to do so much, by the possession of a thrift certifi- cate, and the continuous endeavor to fill the spaces with the necessary stamps.

THURSDAY, JANUARY 3, 1918 spread no dish was served that could not be accurately described as "po- tato." It was an excellent object lesson, more particularly when the diners were informed that even the drinks, which included liqueurs and "brandy," were derived from the same modest source. * * * * • (Continued from pajje 1) ■ward by Rear Admiral Fiske to destroy the German licet, penned up in the Kiel canal, by aerial attack, had not occurred to the United States or to England. Many have commented rather causticly upon the failure of the war departments of both countries to take this easy and effective step to strike Germany in a vulnerable and mortal spot. It is not possible that this solution of the war lias not occurred to the powers arrayed against Germany, sibly because there is realization the fact that the German fleet mains intact in harbor for the reason . that England's fleet, bottidti up in some foggy port of the North Sea, continues safe and whole. It isn't as easy as it appears to the novice, or, perhaps, there is less com- pactness in the -arrangement of the ships of the two Beets than is gen- erally supposed. It is an assured fact that if it were a possible thing for a Beet, held as the navies of both the great naval powers of Europe are held, to be destroyed by aerial attack, there would have been repeated attempts on the part of the German Zeppelins to drop bombs upon the ships of Great Britain, just as there would have been a persistent air campaign against the ships at Wilhetmshaven and in the Kiel canal. Neither nation would keep all its naval eggs in one magnificent basket, if there were not entire assurance that that basket is safe from destruction. * * * * * Small Savings for Thrift Certificates. The thrift stamp, more than any other form of financial aid to the government, typifies the spirit which will win or lose the war. It is to be by co-operative saving, by indi- vidual sacrifice in little, things and in small amounts, which will bring about that spirit of national unity neces- sary to the successful iss-ue of the war. It seems a small thing to buy a twenty-five cent stamp to apply to a thrift certificate, but it is a contri- bution^ which can be made by prac- tically everybody in the country, and hence is a means of patriotic grace which should not be neglected. Every man," woman and child in the nations at war must be brought to the realization that this war is the war of the individual, that there is duce. A child possessor of a filled thrift certificate may be as proud as the adult holder of the liberty bond, and may lay claim to as high a type of citizenship and patriotism. Parents should encourage their children to put their small savings to this use, both for the good which the aggre- gate of their savings will be to the government and for the benefit which the experience will be to the child's character. ***** s Prohibition. With the passage of the federal prohibition amendment recently the cause of prohibition has won its greatest victory. This legislation comes as the culmination of long years of earnest and continuous effort on the part of women, and a few men, who have given the service of their lives to producing that state of public opinion which should bring about this result. Nothing shows more conclusively the cumulative nature of the prohibi- tion movement than the history of the success of the efforts made in the individual states. The first pro- hibition victory was won in Maine in 1851, a success which was followed by twenty-nine years of unsuccessful effort before a second state. Kansas, adopted the reform. North Dakota came next, in 1889, and not another until, in 1 07. Oklahoma set aside alcohol as a thing forbidden within the boundaries of the state. Georgia followed in 1908, North Carolina, Mississippi and Tennessee, in 1909. and West Virginia in 1914. In the last three years nineteen states have come under the prohibition banner, with Alaska and Porto Rico by wiry of good measure. This rapid falling into line shows conclusively the effect of the long campaign of education, the growing sentiment in favor of the saloon free country, and promises for the future the early ratification of the new amendment by the necessary number of states to make the amendment permanent and prohibition general. ***** Potato Banquet. Now that the Ministry of Food cooking expert has shown us how to prepare the potato in 34 different ways, somebody ought to give a pub- lic potato banquet. That was one of the methods pursued in the days of no hope for victory except through j Louis XVI. by Auguste Parmentier. complete co-operation of all parts of j who was the first to popularize the the country, of all classes of society, i tuber in France. At this fashionable The following exnlanMion of the verses by Juanita Wooddy reads: "The words and order of the verses anticipate the natural evolution of a Boy Scout's mind. They start with an enthusiastic declaration of pride in his country and a determination to be a true member of the Boy Scouts of America by striving to be a leader in thirds accomplished for the glory of Uncle Sam. The first verse is sung to the tune of 'Dixie.' "The second verse speaks an indi- vidual and confident reliance in the national strength and justice of Uncle Sam. The Scout pledges him- self to stand by his Government and its traditions. This verse is sung to the tune of 'Yankee Doodle.' "In the third verse the Boy Scouts acknowledge their great responsibil- ity in their heirship to the privil- edges and freedom of our Govern- ment. They deck-re a willingness to •sacrifice all in the defense of the nation and its principles of liberty promised by our forefathers to all mankind. This verse is sung to the tune of 'Tramp, Tramp, Tramp, the Boys arc Marching.' "The fourth verse recites firm de- votion to our flag. This verse puts our flag and country in the lead of all nations. A further resolution to keep striving for the highest form of individual character and national ideals is recited in this verse. The verse is sung to the tune of 'March- ing Through Georgia,' "The fifth verse of the song de- clares for comradship, unity and co- operation. This verse is sung to the tune of 'The Battle Cry of Freedom.' "The last verse is a solemn prayer to the Almighty that our nation may not be diverted from its original and present high ideals. This verse is ;ung to the tune of 'The Star Spr-ngled Banner.' "The sentiment and arrangement of the song makes it suitable for all events and it encompasses completely the purpose, sentiment and patriotism of the Boy Scouts."
