THE DEATH OF A HERO. Joppph Lietzan, one of West Hammond's f.nc youn" men. cheerfully cavp his life for his ootuvry yt sterJay across the waters. Somewhere in France in a hallowed, honored prave this hero lies, and a l.ul who loved manly sports, who crew up amors tis, is at rest. It was hi? priviietre to crowd into the last year of his life wondrous

FUNNY THINGS HAPPEN SOMETIMES. This nuirn'tii: we receivel a letter eoniplaintnt; of a recent editorial in which the liars who maiu'n tie1 lied Cross w re arrai.:n-d The H"ter w.r.t on: "I do no h. ar of any Hid t'ross lies h.c;iis circulated any more." Well, we do, or the editorial would not have been writ : on. Hut to show how things work out in this world sometimes, th-? following star, t; n was uicn to the p;ess just after we luid read the above Sett, r: "Genera! Manager Gibson, at Washirgton, of the Red Cross, today issued a formal denial cf a published statement that the Red Cross would not accept for foreign service any persons cf German antecedents for as fsr as three generations back." That is it typical P.ed Cross slander. Some of the most enthusiastic frk nds of Keel Cross work and Red Cross ftivir.s are persons of German antecedents. There are anv number of Red Cross nurses in France toda

hi? twenty-three was not worth fifty ordinary year.-? When after receiving shrarm 1 wounds as he served an artilley piece in a burn ins dasout, lie was so nt to Monaco, the beautiful spot in the Mediterranean, for recuperation. He looked at Monte Carlo nesriinq; white before the azure sea under a wonderf-.:! sky and wrote a letter home. It was a letter from another world than West Hammond from another boy than the lad who roamed over the swales and slots shs in search of adventure, but in ir Jie breathed the fire of patriotism. He was taking part in the "Great Adventure." lie spoke of what he would do when he came home, did this younu hero, and then went back to the firins line. The Hun pot the shell of him, but they can neve l kill his spirit nor the memories of him, nor the love of West Hammond for .Top I.ietzan. Next week the Red Cros calls us to srive. Let us give gladly and gloriously for Joe Lietan and the other boys we love over there.
WHAT OTHER CAUSES? We thoroughly aerce with the Fort Wayne News wh'ch believes that the war department would do well in report in? casualty lists, to drop the designation. "Died of Other Causes," and tell what these other causes are in each instance. As the heading now stands it is full of sinister import, and no doubt unjustly 1 esmirches the names of certain gallant soldiers. The department lists men as having been killed in action, died of wounds, died of disease, died of accident, and died of "other causes."' At a loss to know what "other causes"' may mean the public- naturally thinks of suicide, murder and military execution, and then pauses. Speculation and surmi.-e stitrirost nothing else. Perhaps there are other causes bur they do not present themselves and as a consequence it has come to pass that odium is fast attaching to the desk-nation referred to. In the llnt-'lish reoor's of casualties the trm "did of accident'' is made to -j. elude all fatalities not due to deaths in action or deaths from wounds or disc-ape, and as a result the innocnt at homo are spared much sul fering. It might be well for our own country to sidopt this method of cjassifk-a'ton. That at present rn lJf:,is urn -cssarilv cruel.

'I IE Hal Cross is the greatest instrument of
merer the world lias ever seen. Noble as the
service of mercy and helpfulness was in Civil War days, the lied Cross surpasses it immeasurably not only in the range and variety of its elfort, but in efficiency and ellecliveness. The Red Cross is, we may say, the arms of the mothers of the world reached out to their sons to bind up their wounds and comfort them. The Red Cross is an army without a gun that wages war only upon sutlcring and heartache. Where the ilag of the stars goes there the banner of the Red Cross must fly beside it. We watch our boys go forth to war with a spirit of hopefulness because we know that this great agency of humanity presses close behind them; that its work is not incidental, but the intelligent- directed elfort of one of the most marvelous organizations ever contrived by American genius. We have all contributed to the Red Cross; Ve shall be called upon again to contribute to its funds, again and perhaps again. And we will respond again and yet again! For this is a war for the defense of civilization, and we of great, free, splendid, glorious America, have every intention that it shall be fought with the army of the Red Cross solidly supporting our soldiers.

LIQUOR AND INDUSTRY. Comfortable living conditions, including laws that do not interfere with the customs of the people, constitute an important factor in the ( mployment departments of th great industries of the Calumet r't:len. Last w-eek this paper printed hundreds, if not. thousands of positions that are piling bes:ine:. There is a demand for labor absolute ly unpr cedent, d in this country. Consequently the employe has a chnncp to idck and choose. He not only thinks of the vases and other features of his work, but he also examines the l i v ' n rr conditions surround insr the factory of the place of work. Indiana recently went "hone-dry."
