Americans in the Trenches
A thrill swept; through this country last week when the government announced that American troops had taken over a section of the French trenches to complete their training for the real
work of the war. '
The sector which the Americans took over remains under the command of the French and our
boys are backed up by veteran French troops. We are elated that the training of our boys has
moved so rapidly that our Allies believe they are able to study the final touches of modern warfare
on the front.
No American is foolish enough to believe that
the small detachment in the trenches represents the full might of American arms and that these boys will be able to crush the Germans In the op
posing lines with ease, -'. ,
These soldiers are only the forerunners of the
host which the United States will put into the
field. They have established the first slight con
tact with the enemy. Following them will come thousands of men to prove to Germany that the United States intends to help make the world safe
for democracy.
The entrance of our men into the trenches is
of historical significance. For the first time in
our history. American soldiers are ready to en
gage a foe on European soil. There where lib'
erty fought its first and hardest battles, men of the greatest republic of the world are preparing to prove that we Americans love humanity, justice, righteousness and civilization more than we love our money and our lives. Our boys are offering their lives as vicarious sacrifices for the cause of humanity and to demonstrate that so long as liberty-loving men live, free and liberty-loving men will fight to liberate enslaved nations and to avenge crimes against civilization and humanity.
Women Will Help Win the War eomeri orthis nation areaccepting the vicissitudes of war with the same determination to win that obsesses the heart of th& men. -While the men are preparing to fight, the women are preparing to save foodstuffs and to practice economy in home administration.
Disclosures in Richmond that some women
are refusing to sign .food pledge cards is not In
dicative of the real feeling of the thousands, of
women that help make up this community. The patriotic women of this country know, that on them devolves the duty of handUng foodstuff s so advantageously that our country will have a sup
ply abundant for itself and its allies. ; ,
The sporadic refusal, of some of their-sisters
to aid in this great work must be Accepted as one of the sad issues of the campaign. The men find
that now and then they run across, a, man who
utters disloyal statements and is not heart and
soul for the government. The nation must ex
pect this manifestation of disloyalty. It must not discourage us. It should spur us on to renewed
activity.
Brave women by going ahead resolutely with their appointed tasks will accomplish the great
end which they are seeking. The lack of co-opera
tion which they meet occasionally, should spur
them on to greater effort. Opposition sometimes
is the best incentive to activity and endeavor. The women who are not taking part in the movement are guilty of disloyalty toward their country. Perhaps they do not realize what is involved in their lack of interest. The future of this nation and of civilization is at stake. The food supply is the vital problem. Soldiers cannot fight without food. Unless we help conserve food, all the guns and munitions that are manufactured in this country will be of no avail. .. The place where this saving of the food must take place is in the home, and the person that must, arrange, plan and supervise the conservation is the woman. Every time you waste food or use foodstuffs unnecessarily, you are prolonging the war and perhaps making it possible for the -Kaiser to win.

Our Pilgrims
By Ellis Parker Butler of The Vigilantes
OR three centuries they have been coming, our pil
grims. First from a royalist England, religiously Intolerant, to land on Plymouth soil: then from
landlord-ridden Ireland; from Kaiser-cursed Germany; from Russia of the Czar and the pogrom .and Siberian
slavery; from tyrant infested Balkans; from the whole of
aristocrat Infested Europe. In little ships and great ships, their faces turned hopefully Westward the numberless pilgrims came, of many tongues, disunited, singly and in pitiful little groups. Today our pilgrims are going back. Side by side, shoulder to shoulder, in united companies, in one uniform of Freedom, one and all Americans and one and all American men, thousands, hundreds of thousands of our pilgrims are returning to Europe, heads up and eyes fearless, all chanting the same song, all marching under the one flag. The like the world has never seen. This Is the true product of the meltiug pof . Forv well nigh three hundred
years they came silently and separate from ten thousand towns and cities; today, welded together Inseparably, they go back carrying the Holy Grail of Democracy ..they came

Revelations of a Wife BY ADELE GARRISON
THE HEART THAT LOVE8 ' FORGIVES Until I heard Dicky's voice over the telephone, and knew that no accident had befallen him. I did not realise how intense had been my anxiety for his .safety. I had told myself over and over that nothing In the world could happen to two.full-grown men, even if they were Intoxicated. But Lillian Gale's evident worry had "effected me, and I had distressed myself ever since her 'phone with visions of Dicky in various dangers. When I heard his voice, however, still urging with drunken insistence that I go back with Harry and himself to Lillian's all-night party my anxiety vanished and my anger returned.
I purposely made my own voice as cold and Incisive aa I could when I
answered him:
"You know I am not going back
with you, Dicky. Where are you, and why do you not come homer "Where am I? "Dicky's Injured voice floated back to me. "I'm down in a place that's got an all-night license, I am. and Harry is with me, and here we're going to stay until you get ready to go hack with us to Lil's party. Poor LI1. having a nice party, and we don't dare go beck without .you.. That is three of us Lll hasn't got Poor Lil! poor girl! His voice trailed off brokenly, as if he were overwhelmed at the thought of Lillian's wrongs. I spoke slowly and distinctly into the telephone. "Dicky, listen to me. Mrs. Underwood is very much worried about you end her husband. She wishes you to go back to her house at once. - If you do not want to do that, come home." But Dicky was adamant. "I tell you I can't go back, unless I take you," he reiterated. My patience suddenly fled. "Then stay there." I snapped childishly, and hung up the receiver. As I did so. I thought of Lillian Gale
and the promise I had made her that
if I heard anything of our husbands I would call her up. The task was most
distasteful to me, but I said to myself that a promise was a promise, and I
turned to th telephone again.
"Chelsea. 864." I said in answer to
central's demand of "Number?" and in
another moment heard Mrs. Underwood's worried voice.
"Yea, yes," she began. "Is that you. Mrs. Graham? Have yau heard anythingr "Dicky Just telephoned.' I replied, "that he and Mr. Underwood are in some place with an all-night license, and that they intend to stay there un- ' til I come back with them to your hours. As I assured him that he was expecting an impossibility, X suppose they will stay there for some time." "Oh, dear!" she. returned. How I wish you had come with Dicky this evening. Then this would not have happened." "I might as well have done so," I agreed. "I can imagine the state my head wCH be In tomorrow If this performance keeps up." "My dear girl, I am so sorry." -Mrs. ' " ' .
Underwood's yoice seemed to hold genuine contrition. "Don't bother to
telephone again, and I won't bother
you with 'phoning. I know where they
are. I fancy at Flack's, an all-night restaurant they both like. They won't
oe nome untu breakfast time, so you may as well get some sleep." "That Is good advice." I replied smoothly. "I shall take It. Goodby," and J hung up the receiver..
I could have lauebed aloud at the
idea of Bleep for me which Lillian Gale had so glibly advised. Sleep! Rest! I felt as if I never should know the meaning of the words again. . My eyes met Katie's, hers round and eager with curiosity and interest I felt a sudden rage that anyone should be a witness to my emotions. "Katie!" I tried to speak kindly, but I put a note of decision in my tone which I did not think she would dis
regard. , "You must go to bed. - I cannot have you sit up here any longer. You will not be fit for anything tomorrow, and I shall want you feeling all right in the morning, for I am afraid I may have a headache. Then I shall want you to take care of me. Please look in at my door when you have dressed in the morning. - "All right, good night," and she had gone. I sat very still until I heard her shut the door of her tiny room. Then I sprang to my feet, every nerve a-qulv-er. Action of some sort was imperative to me.- I felt a primitive impulse to throw my arms high above my head and scream with all my might. That being denied me, I did the only thing I could do, begin to walk up and down the length of the living room and dining room, while rage, humiliation and a cold fever alternately had their will with me. Then rage at Dicky overwhelmed me. I felt that' I never could forgive him for the night's suffering. I rapidly reviewed his offences of the evening. He had broken a treasured vase of mine In a fit of rage. He had gone to Lillian Gale's without me, that In itself being a humiliating thing to bear.- He had come" back half intoxi
cated at midnight and frightened me
naii out or my wits by insisting that I go back with him to the party. And now he was probably drinking himself

into a state where he would not be

Dicky was my man, In the old, homely phrase, my own man, no matter
what he did. He belongs to me, and whatever his sins and faults they were mine to care or to endure. The feel
ing of wife loyalty wrapped me round
like a warm garment- I thought of
one of Barrie's inimitr j characters,
the woman who says of her suitor
"Drink or no drink, he's the man for me," and I felt a feeling of kinship
with her."
I was ready for anything now. Even
my fear for Dicky's safety slipped away. Somehow I felt sure that soon
he would come home to me. I knew he would be in no condition to listen to reproaches or advice even if I wished to give them to him. I resolved to put all plans for the handling of the future situations like this out of my head until I saw the development of this one. But I must have strength to meet It I decided with a return of my old poise and self-control. I slipped the night lock on the door so that I would be awakened when Dicky attempted an entrance, and lying down upon my bed soon fell asleep, exhausted by the events of the night and the violence of my.own emotions.

Corns Lift Off
Deesnt hurt a bit to lift com er cellueee off with fingers.
Not a twinge of pain or soreness before applying, or afterwards. This may sound like a dream to corn-pestered men and women - who have been cutting, filing and wear, lag torturous plasters. Tes! Corns lift out and calluses peel off as if by magic. A small bottle of freezone costs but a few cents at any drug store. Apply a few drops directly upon your tender corn or callus, and instantly the soreness disappears; then shortly the corn or callus will be so loose that it lifts off. Freezone dries instantly. It doesn't eat out the corn or callus, but Just shrivels it up . so it lifts away without even irritating the surrounding skin. Women should keep a
lay bottle handy on the dresser and icver let a corn or callus ache twice. -Adv.
