SHOW YOUR FAITH IN AMERICA

By THOMAS R. MARSHALL, Vice President of the United States.

If we are standing In statecraft for ’the same things for which the NazaI rene stood in religion, then we ought I to be able to glean something from | the discussion of his followers. Pe-

ter and Paul grew acrimonious over the. relative merits of fuith and works and the, discussion ended with the somewhat caustic statentent, “Show me your faith without your works, and I will show you my faith by my work*.* I We have been running up the American Flag at all the school houses In America; we have been rising with solemn [countenances whenever the “Star-Spangled Banner” is played, and we have proclaimed to tha world our never-ending allegiance to those great principles of democracy upon . which the republic was founded and is now supposed to rest. Now we have reach--ed the point where our faith is being put to the touchstone of our works and we are soon to find out whether this love w’hlch we profess for our institutions, our country, and our Flag, Is but a sounding brass and a tinkling cymbal or whether It is a great and vital inspiration of individual and national life.

Our young men, with a devotion unexampled In the history of the world, are laying aside all the-hopes of future years and are going gladly “somewhere 1q France” to offer, if need be, the last drop of blood In their veips as a free libation upon the altar of constitutional liberty. They: cannot go half-clad, half-fed, .unequipped orunassured that they wHI be properly looked after if disabled; > We did nit prepare. We thought there was no danger. And In one year there came upon us an outlay of entraofdlnary expense, which might have been prevented had we exercised foresight and courage, llttl?; by little, to get;ready. It is however, to hold post-mortem*. Thnpastt* the dead and eternal past This war must be fought and It must be financed In order to be fought ■ v My objection to Carnegie libraries Is not directed at Carnegie nor at libraries; it springs from a deep-rooted feeling lhat we dq not take real . interest in anything. Cor which ,we do not make some I do not -therefore, > want this war to be financed by those who are easily able to do so financially. •! want every man, woman and child la America, who has been waving the Flag, singing the “Star-Bpangled Banner,” and bragging about the glories of democracy,, to prove now by their works that they have, .a genuine faith U> the. American republic. That proof demands of all that we take enough of the war ob■Hgatlons efi this government tn waka us feel some sort of sacrifice for the cause in which each one of us prefesses to believe and doesbelleve.’--;

Thursday and Sunday Designated As Lightless Nights

The “lightless night" has arrived. The Federal Fuel Administrator for Indiana, i« sending to- each •county fuel administrator a copy of the' order recently issued by the Washington office, which provides for two “lightless nights” each week, Sunday and Thursday. On these two nights electric signs, ornamental street lights, in fact, all electric lights except those essential to safety, must be turned, off. The order is now in effect and, its enforcement is in the hands of the county fuel administrators. The order has for its aim the conservation of coal and the Federal Fuel Administrator has the power to refuse coal to any concern, which uses it to generate electricity for signs and ornamental lighting if they fail to comply with the order. Display lights in stores and theatres come under the order and, excepting those lights necessary for the protection of property and the public, fnust be turned off on Sunday and Thursday nights.

Merchandise Sold Under a Money Back Guarantee Must Possess Real Merit. Money talks. The housewife should listen only to the claims of manufacturers who back their assertions with a money back guarantee. I have found in my years of Domestic Science work that manufacturers of meritorious products employ the money-back-if-not-satisfied policy of merchandising. Such manufacturers are deserving of housewives’patronage —and usually get it. *** No matter how good a manufacturer may say his product is —if he lacks courage to offer a refund of purchase price, if buyer is not satisfied he displays a lack of faith in his goods. In such instances the purchaser assumes all risk'" and there is Always risk, when the maker of merchandise refuses to stand by his goods with a money back guarantee. To make this point clear— consider the advertising of a certain brand of baking powder. The producers of this baking powder abolish the uncertainty of buyers getting full tnoney*b worth as every can is sold under a clear cut guarantee of money-back-if-not-satisfied with bake day results. i Their advertisements state that their product is superior—they say that it is unfailing in.results —pure in the can and in the food and that it produces absolutely pure and wholesome bakings. Furthermore they assert that “You save when you bujr it —and you save . when you use it,” The phrase is so familiar to the housewife, every one no doubt will recognize it as taken from a Calumet Baking Powder advertisement. But to get back to my subject —the importance of those printed words lies in the fact that the Calumet Baking Powder Co. put die proof before the housewife with positive bake’day results. They invite her to buy Calumet on a money back trial basis. They demonstrate dependability with bake day results. They show her actual •Ravings in real money. I have tested Calumet Baking Powder. The tests I conducted were far more exacting than could be fnade by the housewife arid those tests have proved the truth of the Calumet Baking Powder Co.’s contentions. No housewife can afford to refuse so liberal a proposition. All should give Calpmet a trial and millions have done so. That it makes good ift advertised ’ promises is shown in the fact that housewives who put it to a test continue to use it NOTE—Miss Costello is already well known to most cftheladieS of our city.
