Think About This

THE WAR OF BREAD By Edith M. Thomas of the Vigilantes "There shall be no unwarranted manipulation of the nation's food supply by those who handle it on the way to the consumer."-r-President Wilson,

Of afl the wars that waste this world. Where the life of man has bled. ThJs is the war I most abhor The theft of the people's bread! - They who hold back what the kind Earth gave In the billowing fields of grain. Are the cowardliest foe for their secret blow Strikes for their own base gain. Arm of . the law, reach forth in your might And the hidden stores unbind. And defeat their power who, at this hour, Wage dastardly war on their kind!

The Army And Navy Forever , Let us apply this patriotic sentiment to the drive for members which the two teams of the Commercial club are making. Campaigns for membership are common occurrences. The very fact that they are so frequent shows that there is inefficiency and lack

ofc pulling power somewhere, r If this were not true, members who once joined an organization would remain constant on the enrollment list. We hope that this drive of the Commercial club will result in the establishment of a Commercial club membership that is lasting. ' It can be an abiding membership if every recruit takes to heart the call of his city and appreciates the personal responsibility he owes the community. If a man joins this week merely because he wants to be obliging, he is not doing the Club or the city a bit of good. He is not a soldier, but a straggler and a hanger-on who will hinder the real fighting men of the organization. The membership of the club must be made up of the virile and aggressive men of this community who have not only vision to see needs, but also persistence to fight on even if the battle seems to turn against them. The men who are serving on these committees are giving their valuable time to an unselfish execution of a patriotic task. We must not look upon them as interlopers and intruders, but must feel honored that they have considered us important enough to warrant a call soliciting membership. By letting them take your name, you are not conferring a favor upon them, but you are being honored by their coming. If you receive them in this spirit and join the club because of the positive benefits you personally will help give your city, the membership campaign will not have been in vain.

British Troops Take Two German Towns

"I'm thinking I'll know it again, at a'.l events!" King answered, sitting down. "Good night, sir." "Good night." Within ten minutes Hyde was asleep, .snoring prodigiously. Then King pulled out the knife again and studied it for half sn hour. The blade was of bronze, with an edge hammered to the keenness of a razor. The hilt was of nearly pure gold, in the form of a woman dancing. The whole thing was eo exquisitely wrought that age had only softened the lines, without in the least impairing them. It looked like one of those Grecian toys with which Roman women of Nero's day stabbed their lovrs. But that was not why he began (o whistle yery softly to himself. Presently he drew oit the general's package of papers, with the photoerauh on the top. He stood up, to hold "octh knife and papers close to the light in the roof. It needed no great stretch of imagination to suggest a likeness belween the woman of the photograph and the other, of the golden "knife-hilt. And "cbody, looking at him then, would have dared suggest be lacked imagination. If the knife had not been so ancient ihey might have been portraits of the same woman, in the eame disguise, taken at the same time. "She knew I had been chosen to work with her. The general sent her word that I am coming," he muttered to himself. "Man number one had a try for me. tut I had him pinched too coon. There must have been a spy watching at Peshawur, who wired to Kawal-PJndi for this man to jump the train and go on with the job. She must have had him planted ot Rawalpindi in case of accidents. She seems thorough! Why should she give the man a knife with her own portrait on it? Is she queen of a secret society? ; Well we shall see!" . He at down on his berth again end sighed, not discontentedly. Then he lit one of his great black cigars and blew rings for five or six minutes. Then he lay back with his head on the pillow, and before five minutes

more bad gone he was asleep, with the cold cigar still clutched between bis fingers. He looked as interesting in bis

sleep as when awake. His mobile face in repose looked Roman, for the sun had tanned his skin and his nose was aquiline. In museums, where sculptured heads of Roman generals and emperors stand around the wall on pedestals, it would not be difficult to pick several that bore more than a faint resemblance to Lira. He had breadth and depth of forehead and a jowl that lent itself to smiles as well as sternness, and a, throat that expressed manly determination in every molded line. He slept like a boy until dawn; and he and Hyde had scarcely exchanged another dozen words when the train screamed next day into Delhi station, Then he saluted stiffly and was gone. "Young jackanapes!" Hyde muttered after him. "Lazy young devil! He

ought to be with his regiment, march-! ipg and setting a good example to hi3 men! We'll have our work cut out!

to win this war, if there are many of

his stamp! And I'm afraid there are I'm afraid so far top many of 'em! Pity! Such a pity! If the right men were at the top the youngsters at the foot of the ladder would mind their P's and Q's. As it is, I'm afraid we shall get beaten in this show. Dear, oh, dear!" Being what he was, and consistent before all things. Major Hyde drew out" his writing materials there and then and wrote a report against Athelstan King, which he signed, addressed to headquarters and mailed at the first opportunity. There some future historian may find it and draw from it unkind deductions on the morale of the British army. To be continued
