It's better . not to get too excited and the way to keep frpm it is to have other things on our tnhids 'The boys and girls are settling down to the business of school, court is in session, the commissioners meet, business Is opening - up for the autumn and it's up to 1 every one to get busy. It's war and almost before the j news had reached us. those who felt It would not affect us. were' stunned by the report that a Canadian liner had been torpedoed aud , sunk by a German submarine Many Americans were aboard. The war will cost billions aud the reconstruct lon more. How the nations now engaged in killing off each other <an come through it' any way except completely bank rupt is beyond the average person who remembers 19U-UH* and the years that followed. — Prime Minister Chamberlain made an earnest tight for peace but when he decided war was tn-' evitable, formed a war board that Will give conttdeuce lo the people of the I'nlted Kingdom It includes such lighters as Churchill and Eden who favored war a year ago. Seven of the eighteen lasing j units In Adams county are under ' the 81.8A limit prescribed by law, | which la a fair record Under the law and except where a proper showing of necessity Is made, the maximum tax rate it 51.50.

I ——— As the great forces of Germany, j France and England swing Into I action, we may expect all kinds of 'disasters for each nation will try |t to make it's early blows count In I thia modern age We must anticlI I pate horrible results. That's an- ( other reason why the world exi 1 petted a compromise before the J fateful action of declaring “a state I of war." President Roosevelt. promises I peace and we will have It if we all 1 refrain from excitement. It is so I easy to blame other nations with* bad faith and to create a feeling | i that forces congress to declare I war. but with the present feeling 1 that war never results in good, even . when won.
