CHANGE YOURSEiUF.

We are all familiar with the man "h'too is afraid to don a uniform, with the stay-at-homes who think they need five meals a day, and with the business *ian who complains that the war interferes with his business But here comets a slacker nMtti a hrand new stripe of yellow—the 'man or woman who thinks there is some good reason for hiding currency.

The movement for hoarding money received its first impetus from the war rumors afloat when the United States •ntered the war to the effect that this democratic country might elect to confiscate savings accounts after the example of the, two kaisers. Notwithstanding the assurances of the admin Istration that such thing not only was undemocratic, but was unneces sary, a great, many selfishly fnclined persons took money oift. of circulation and hid it away,

people of this stripe foolishly thought it would be wiser to have a portion of their tangible wealth hoarded In the shape of currency than either to invest it or carry it on deposit at the banks. Tq a large extent these people were moved by the fear that some sort of disaster might occur which- would put thrm in want. ProbablJ- very few of them srOpped to consider the far reaching effect of such actioa.

Today's war news Indicate* that Hindenburg is digging in, to make himself ready for any serious allied attack. But meanwhile he is not resting. He is bringing up men and- guns fflWr 'a new batUefe fee cannot stKp. He must hammer away again and again, as the crown prince did at Verdun. The German people have been educated to watch the western front for proof that Germany will win the war. The proof is not as yet forthcoming. If victory can now be snatched from failure the Germans will forgive Hindenburg for the thousands he has sent to death. To win this forgiveness and to make Germany safe for kalserism the Prussian will soon send thousands more to death. He is a plunger who must win his game, regardless of cost, or be broken and dishonored. Kalserism, for which he is laboring, must have its weetern victory or be discredited. AU that Hindenburg and kaiserism have must be risked.

No people, not even tBe duTT, driven German people, can be fed forever on brag and promise. The losses already incurred must in time become known In Germany, lEven In tb* German masses there Is some' rudimentary force of public sentiment, and this may at any time become the impelling power of the German nation. Hlndenburg'a masters knew that failure in France would bring to them ft peril more grave than mere military defeat, but they trusted Hindenburg. 1

Hindenburg has failed. Like tnany other failures he will draw upon his reserve strength to the flnal ounce to retrieve what he has lost. If the one great military idol Calls he must carry down with him to destruction that blind German confidence that has been tiie bulwark of HoheniollernJLsm.

THE COAL PUZZLE.

_^_

Charles G.'Hall,.federal fuel cobserver for this district, expresses the hope that the people will perform a patriotic duty and order their coal as' soon as possible for next winter. The people were requested to do this last year, and the sad memories of the winter's coal famine recall how deplorably the advice was ignored.

I Pis experience in handling the coal situation from the time when the government undertook to control the fuel supply qualifies him to, apeak Wlth knowledge^ and authority.'

What he advises is not altogether a matter of prudence, economy or coi} venience. It is a matter oi patriotism. If householders do not provide themselves with fuel, and do It early, their claims to fuel later will have to be regarded and their bins willvhave to be filled when the coal might better go elsewhere. T7hat waa the experience last winter, when domestic needs had to be placed ahead of the claims of war industry,*-not because that was best for the war, but because the government could not see the people suffer from the cold.

Early ordering will enable the mines and railroads to distribute the business so that everyone may be supplied without interference with any necessary industry, and the men who follow the advice of the fuel admlnis trator now will witness the result of their action In an uninterrupted flow, of supplies to France.

The early hours of this day are not favorable as Mars and Uranus are adverse. Later the sun and. Venus are In benefic aspect.

There is a sign that gives warning of the great necessity of impressing moral obligations upon all classes of men and women, inasmuch as under the rule that encourages war all the baser passions are given free rein.

The seers declare that extremes of good and evil influence will be manifest in human lives during this year, when women should' be especially safeguarded against tfie power of destructive thought as well as the results of evil acts.'j. ,*,,w

Price of Seed Potatoes.

Editof of the Tribune: I am a resident of Jefferson township living near the town of Pleasantville where we get most of our supplies. I went there last week to get six weeks' seed potatoes and they asked four cents per pound. When I said they were too high, they showed me their price list which was one dollar and fifty-flve cents per hundred at Chicago with twenty-eight oents added for freight and hauling, which would ,ie a profit of more Jlhan two cents per pound.

Also there isn't a store in Pleasantville that has ever sold sugar at le?" than ten cents per pound and they an claim to be patriotic too.
