By D. T. HOUSTON (Secretary of Agriculture.) U is every citizen's duty to purchase a Liberty Bond if ho is in a position to do so. L'.very ratriot will regard it as a privilege to participate in the Liberty Lcn. Ho will thereby contribute directly and effectively to the successful prosecution of tho war which Gernmny has forced uon us. It faces you and me. If we do not win this war wo must prepare ourselves for grave changes In our institutions and to lend a different sort of life from that which wo hud planned to llvo from that which our fort-fathers died to give us the right to I!e. We shall Indefinitely face the interference of the Prussian autocracy or boar permanently the intolerable burdens of militarism. To win this war wo must have both men and money. I know that every farmer want3 to do a'l in his power for the Nation in this day of J rial. H- will not only labor to produce the necessary foodstuffs but wl'd also generously contribute of his moans to make it possible for th men at the front to achieve victory. I am confident that th farmers of the land will not permit any other class to take the leadership in supporting the government in this crisis, financially or otherwise. We are at war with Germany beeauso Germany made war upon us, sank our ships, killed our citizens, and plotted against us while professing friendship. We were pathnt till offenses became so flagrant and insults so intolerable that tt wan merely a Question whether we would admit wo were no longer a free ration or accept the challenge of the war-mad hypocritical, and mediaeval Prussian militarists. There was ona choice we could not make we were incapable of making. We could not "choose the path of submission and suffer the most sacred rights of our Nation ard our people to be ignored and violated." We are defending our rights as a free miticn. We are resolved that there shall be an end of brute force in international nffalrs. What Germany's victory would TOO WEAK TO FIGHT Th "Come-back" man was really never down-and-out. His weakened condition because of overwork, lack of exercise, improper eating and living demands stimulation to satisfy the cry for a health-giving appetite and the refreshing sleep essentia! to strength. GOLD MEDAL Haarlem Oil Capsules, the National Kerned y of Holland, will do the work. They are wonderful. Three of these capsules each day will put a man cn his feet before he knows it: whether his trouble comes from uric acid poisoning, the kidneys, gravel or stone in the hltdder, stomach derangement or other ahments that befall the over-zealous American. l.on't wait until you are entirely down-and-out. but take thm tocia.y. " Your druggist will gladly refund your money if they do not help you. Accept no substitutes. Look for thp name ; LI MEIUL on every box. three sizes. They are t'ne pure, original, imported Haarlem Oil Capsules. Adv.

; mean to the world is plain. There would be no right except might, no peace f a e ' at the price of humiliations too bitter to be borne. .Small nations could not exist, j There would be no sanctity to a pledge. ; no solemnity to a, covenant. With the dominance of I'russian militarism, the Anglo-Saxon struggle for free Institutions and liberty, persisting from Kunnymede to Yorktown, with its Mag-.ia Charta. its Hill of Kights. and its Ieclaratfon of Independence, will have been in vain. It is to prevent this. to defend our rights, and to make possible an orderly and Jut pence in the world that we are at war. The Notion calls on its citizens for high and noble service. On seme it calls for service in the field; : on others for service at home: on att. It i calls for financial support. I am confident that the farmers of the Nation will i eagerly respond to the call for subscriptions to the Liberty Loan.

- 'Hi,

whs uoru in l'ewiTt county, Illinois. After graduatinc; from high school he entered the Law Department of the University of Illinois, where lie was graduated in 1912. He immediately came to Hammond where he has practiced law. Since coming to Hammond he ha? been active in the affairs of his party. Quite often in the absence of the judce he has acted as Special Judgre in the City Court, and he has there demonstrated his ability to per form the duties of the office, iie acted as clerk of th? local Registration Hoard last June for the enrollment of the army; and when the drawing occurred his number was in the first two hundred called. lie Is now in the army service at Camp Taylor. Mr. McKinney is 30 years of ape and resided with his mother at 1000 Park jilace. Adv.

Ida M. Tarbell. known everywhere as the chief critic of Rockefeller methods, yesterday branded as dishonest" the attempt of the Tammany candidates to make it appear that the Gary school system was a Rockefeller idea; President 'illcox of the Hoard of Education characterized as an 'insult" Judge Hylan's gratuitious slanders" cm the Hoard of Education: the Chairman of the Committee on General "Welfare of the Board of Aldermen, consisting of nine Tammany men and two Republicans, in a statement found fault with the Gary system and the school administration generally, and about l.Ot'O pupils in one school went on strike, egged on by-grown-ups. These were the developments of one day in connection with one of the issues of the political campaign. An Absurd Trick Miss Tarbell wrote to the Committee on Public Education which has in charge the testing of the Gary system. She denounced Tammany Hall and groups of anti-capitalists for trying "to persuade the public that the Gary system was inverted by the Steel Corporation and is now backed by Mr. Rockefeller for the sinister purpose of controlling schools in order to increase wage slaery." Miss Tarbell characterized this as "an absurd and disreputable trick." "The members of your committee," she wrote. In part, "know I can hardly be accused of ignorance or indifference to the business methods which have me.dj the public suspicious of the name of Rockefeller. I spent some five years of my life in proving that certain practices which went into making the fc'tandard Oil the powerful monopoly it once was were contrary to common law and common morality. I have had the satisfaction of knowing that the Supreme Court of the United States in dissolving the Standard Oil Company sustained every point I made. "'But however much one may dislike many of the methods which contributed to the making of this gr"at fortune, it would be difficult, I believe, for any one to criticise the use that has been made of thnt part of this fortune which Mr. Rockefeller has seen fit, to turn over to the public. He has been careful thnt the vast sums which he has given away only be placed after a most careful study of human needs. He lias seen to it that they were Intrusted to the ablest men in the particular lines where they were to be used. This certainly is true in regard to the funds disbursed in education. Oary Plan Not Sinister "In my Judgment the only fear that the public can rightfully entertain in regard to this money is that it may be so administered as to dull the public conscience to the meaning of the objectionable methods which went into the making of the fortune. "Men who want to blind the public do not encourage methods which stimulate reflection, observation and intelligent action. All this the Gary system does. It assists the youngster to work out problems in his own way; it encourage .i him to think, form opinions, to Judge and to act. "The. system is the enemy of every dark and devious way. No man with the sinister purpoeJ of bedevilling find con

fusing young minds would hae anything to do with it. Even if Mr. Rockefeller and the Steel Corporation were sufficiently Machlavelian to harbor such a purpose, they certainly would be too clever to have anything to do with Mr. "Wirt's form of teaching. They would bs more likely to stand by the system now In operation: "No, this agitation is both ignorant nnd dishonest. It catches at the hope that the portion of the crowd that knows nothing of these things, whose prejudices and passions are easily aroused, can be swayed to their particular purposes by the agitation." Raps IXylan's Criticism President Wilcox's letter was direct

ed t , Mr. Hylon and was an answer to the Tammany candidate's communication putting forward the Flexner letter of years nto as proof that the Rockefeller interests control the schools. Mr. "H'illcox. wrote: "Apparently you admit that you have no evidence except a letter which one

member of the Hoard of Education wrote to another member urging co-op-rration among those who were in favor of a change of administration. You fall to present the slightest evidence that Dr. Flexner and Mr. Kosdick represented any one but themselves, or controlled any votes but their own. "As for myself. I do not know Mr. Rockefeller, and have never been connected with any Rockefeller interests. I have never given or been asked to give any pledge or assurance to any one respecting Gary schools, or other educational policies, nor has there ever been any attempt from any source to interfere with the free exercise of my own judgment in the discharge of my responsibilities as a member of the Hoard of Education, or as President of the Board. "A candidate for public office may fairly be Judged by the intelligence and reasonableness of his criticisms of the Administration which he seeks to supersede. Gratuitous slander of members of the Hoard of Education conscientiously glving the'.r time and effort and best Judgment without pay to the service or the school system, will hardly comnund the confidence of fair-minded rub.ic opinion." Estimate Board Accused Alderman Robitzeks's statement repeated much that has been said on the stump nnd elsewhere about the Gary system. He says he found parents had "overpowering objections" to the Gary system and he adds that he lias discovered "weighty evidence" that the Hvard of Estimate is controlling school policies throueh the granting or withholding of school funds. Th.3 committee report will be forthcoming shortly. Egged on by grown-ups. Fild by persons living in the neighborhood to be both Socialist and I. Y. V. agitators, about l.nOO of the 3.7ri(1 pupils of Public School No. 171. 104th Street, between Fifth and Malison Avenues, went on a riotious strike yesterday morning and again at noon against the adoption in the school of the Gary System. Hundreds of striking children .assembled in front of the school in the morning. They bowled and paraded, screamei nn1 s whistled and danced, cheered for Ilfllquit and boohed the name of the Mayor until the arrival of the polie. Hut at noon the. children crowded around the srhoo;hotie In greater disorder. Two men and a few youths barancued the children, telling them not to submit. A young woman addressed the children hysteric-ally. Little girls b"can marching around with Ulilqult banners Hoys bomh.?rd'cj the schoolhouse with ston". smashing several windiws. among them those of Principal Wilson's office, ami the police swooped down upon the crowd for the second time.

The two men agitators slid away but i the young woman was arrested and ar- ! ralaned before Magistrate McGahan in j the Hrlcm Court. He reprimanded her. but suspended a disorderly conduct ' sentence. Three bovs over sixteen were

arraigned before Magistrate Walsh, also hi the Harlem Court, and two were fined $3. Ten smaller boys wore sent by the Children's Court to the Children's Society rooms.
