LAKE SHTORE NEWS, THURSDAY, JULY 4, 1918 "WOROKR DOERR F IGHT" EXPLAINED At the May 31 meeting of the .tate Council of Defense, V. A. Olander drew'the Council's attention to the dathaging confusion produced by widely exploited hMisinterpretation of Provost Marshal General Crowder's sorcalled "Work or .Fight" order of May 23. The entire subject matter was referred to the'State Council's cornnittee on Law and Legislation, composed of ,Levy Mayer, John G. Oglesby and D. E. Shanahan with instructions to analyze the selective service law and regulations and to report thereon with a view to informing the public. Committee Report The committee's report was pre sented to the meeting of the State Council last Friday.' Its conclusions are : Sertous confusion and misunderstanding have resulted from the incomplete or erroneous publicity that has been given to the additional regulations (General Crowder's order of May 23). WVhen carefully investigated, all occasion for alarm or misunderstanding disappeared. The "work or fight" regulations of May 23 do not conflict and are not inconsistent with the original regulations of November 8, 1917. The "work or fight" regulations do not in any way apply to those who are not registered (under the selective draft law). Only those are registered who are between the ages of 21 and 31. Therefore the command to "work or fight" applies only to those between the ages of 21 and 31, and in no way concerns or affects men at'ove the .traf- age.. \Vanii this is clearly unde'st ,od, alI 'occasion for criticism of alarm entirely dis- -appears. Does Not Effect Strikers . Registrants between the ages'of 21 and 31 who are unemployed by reason of strikes are not. subject to' the "\Vok or Fight" reguljdions. No existing Federal regulation and no law of the State of Illinois supports or justifies any claim or contention thlat men above the draft age can be compelled or are compellable to perform a certain amoutlt of labor each day or each week. The Law and Legislation cOmmittee's report covers fully the classification of all registrant) and collateral questions. The full report has been ordered pub~lished and will be ready for (listrilbution in a few days. Save Clothing or War The women of Uinta County, Utah, have saved $2,500 during the last month by remodeling hats and clothing under the supervision of the county home demohstration agent. The work is carried on at meetings to which the women bring, their materials and"work under the agent's I supervision. Three hundred and fifty hats have been remodeled--a saving of at least $1,500-dresses have been made from coats and suits, waists from old shirts, children's clothing from women's dresses, boy's trousers from men's clothing, and boy's overcoats from men's old coats. Women Are Cow Testerd Five women cow testers have recently been appointed by dairy agents of the United States Department of Agriculture, co-operating with the State agricultural colleges and the State dairymen's associations. One of these has been placed in Iowa and theother four" re in Wisconsin, where the first woman cow tester in the country is now starting her second year of work. These women have received training in agricultural high schools or have taken work in dairying at short courses, and all of them have been in close touch with daiy work. Marshall Field, some years ago. said: "Careful saving and careful spending invariably promote success. Economy is one of the most essential elements of success, yet most wretchedly disregarded. The 5 or 10 cents squandered in a day, if saved will in a few years amount to thousands of diololars. If a man is not competent manage a small income or a small business, he is not competent to manage a large income or a large business." Do not cry out against the terrors of thrift as long as the men in the trenches do not cry out against their I hardships. Cofisider yourself luckyf to be able to save and to buy W~ar Sqavings Stamps. LIMITED CREDIT IS POLICY AT CLEANERS The debate on the question of cash or credit, which is being waged with a good deal of earnestness on the north shore, has received a,c on- j tribution in the shape of an an'- noun ement of policy by Ben I,. Davy, local manager of Six-One-Nie dry cleaners. Mr. Davy'announced that he was in favor of doing away with unlimited credit as unfair to both the business man and to the vast majority of customers who pay their bills promptly. He declared, however, he did, not see, ay reason for taking harsh measures, which might work to the discomfort and inconvenience of the public. "Our busitiess will continue to 'operate on a credit basis," lie said. "But our hills will be. payable on or before the fifteenth of the month in which they are rendered. After the bill has gone as long as that unpaid, the customer must expect no further credit, but must pay cash for further service. "We shall extent credit to all those, who, upon itiquiry, we find deserve credit. But we will not extent credit blindly. "\We are asking new customers who wish to have their names placed upon our books to call us tip now so that xve may make arrangements promptly, and there will be no delay when they call on us for service." -Samuel Gompers says: "If worthy of citizenship in a 'free country, no man or woman' will dissipate our man power and economic resources through purchase of things to merely gratify tastes or appearances. All purchases should lie governed by this one dominating thought, 'will they in any manner retard the winning of the wai'?'" If your neighbor offers leisl"if e, surely you can loan your money. Save with the same eagerness that your neighbor fights, and buy XV. S. S. with your savings., rtedguleeairis0tic Effects.' 1 th~t r.~l Realism is alt right-but it is easily overdone.

Which do we care more for, personal gratification or the principles for which the civilized world is fighting? If the former, we shall continue to spend recklessly; if the latter, we shall save to the utmost of our ability and with our savings buy W. S. S. Most people in the country, despite the fact that we are at war, are making more money than ever before. That is all the more reason why we should save money and buy War Savings Stamps. We have the opportunity to help the'Government and to provide for our own future. Th% governor of Montana says that "thrift and self-denial are handmaidens in the house of victory." lours 7 P.
