Indiana's War Achievements The spirit that actuated Oliver P. Morton, Indiana's illustrious war governor, and gave the Hoosier state pre-eminence for loyalty and pa

triotic self-sacrifice during the Civil war, is not dead. The last twelve months have proved with conclusive evidence that Hoosierdom's loyalty knows no bounds and recognized no limitations for the expression of it s activity. Today, as in the days of the 60's, it stands conspicuous

their money as they have been of their sons. The war must be won, and Indiana will help win the war.

President Approves School Garden Campaign President Wilson has written Secretary Lane, of the Interior, expressing the hope that "every school will have a regiment in the Volunteer War Garden Army" the army of- school children that, it is hoped, may raise this year produce amounting to $500,000,000. "Every boy and girl who really sees what the home garden may mean," writes the President, "will, I am sure, enter into the purpose with high spirits, because I am sure they would all like to feel that they are in fact fighting in France by

joining the home garden army. In his letter, which follows, the President approves the design of Secretary Lane to arouse the school children of the United States to "as real and patriotic an effort as the building of ships or the firing of cannon'." 25 February, 1918. My dear Mr. Secretary:

I sincerely hope that you may-be successtul

HISTORY. By Lewis G. Reynolds. "And thv3 man with the book dipped his pen in the ink-horn and it was so written down." Pilgrim's Progress. In mid-summer of the year of our Lord nineteen and fourteen, a powerful nation, .'ts brain afire and its mouth

watering with the lust of power and

greed, marched its stalwart army onto neutral soil in its endeavor to pass on to another peaceful country which it wished to conquer and pillage, and re

duce to the point of slavery.

amone the commonwealths of America for its

great work in furthering national aims and pur- through the Bureau of Education in arousing the

poses. The close of the first year of war is only a few weeks off. The nation plans to take fitting notice of the completion of the first year of war. Indiana, because of her superlatively active part in all war work, is called on to join with her sister states in the celebration. Wayne county, birthplace of Morton, center of patriotic propaganda and efficient service, will not overlook the celebration. . Arrangements are being perfected now for an appropriate expression of our appreciation of the momentous work in which we are engaged.

Officials at Washington have given fulsome praise to Indiana's war activity. Press dispatches say federal officials are paying tribute to our sacrifices and willingness to stand behind the president in the great task of making the world a fit place to live in. Records at the war department show that 25,148 Hoosier boys have enlisted as volunteers. In New York state, the number of volunteers for the same period was only 30.818. On a basis of population, Indiana's volunteer record leads the nation. The selective army organization in Indiana was one of the most efficient in the Union. It was the first state to complete its organization and the first to report the results of the registraion to Provost Marshal Crowdev. Indiana is cited by war department officials as a proof that the selective draft is a successful method of ob'taining men for the army. More than 5,000 Hoosier boys have volunteered for service in the navy. Wayne county has contributed its quota to this branch of the service. Besides sending its young men to the army and navy, thousands of young men have entered the State Militia to provide home defense. The purchase of .3120,000,000 worth of Liberty bonds puts Indiana in the list of states that greatly oversubscribed their allotments. More than $2,000,000 was contributed to the Red Cross, the Hoosier quota being less than one-half this amount. More than 26 percent of the population is enrolled as members of the Red Cross. In Y. M. C. A. work, the state shows that it contributed more than its share besides giving men for the service at home and abroad. The work of the State Council of Defense and .of the County Councils of Defense is exemplary. This phase of our war work has elicited praise from many sources. The achievements of Indiana in the last twelve months are only a criterion of what it will do until the war is over. Every county, Wayne included, is preparing for the next Liberty Loan drive. The interest rate of the new loan will be percent. Hoosiers are not waiting for the campaign to open before they prepare to subscribe. They know why the money is necessary and are laying aside money now to buy the bonds when they are offered next month. Indiana will again prove thrit a patriotic appeal is heeded. The first anniversary of America's entrance ' into the war will see Hoosiers as unsparing of

interest of teachers and children in the schools of the United States in the cultivation of home gardens. Every boy and girl who really sees what the home garden may mean will. I am sure, enter into the purpose with high spirits, because I am sure they would all like to feel that they are in fact fighting in France by joining the home garden army. They know that America has undertaken to send meat and flour and wheat and other foods for the support of the soldiers who are doing the fighting, for the men and women who are making the munitions and for the boys and girls of Western Europe, and that we must also feed ourselves while we are carrying on this war. The movement to establish gardens, therefore, and to have the children work in them is just as real and patriotic an effort as the building of ships or the firing of cannon. I hope that

this spring every school will have a regiment in the Volunteer War Garden Army. Cordially and sincerely yours, Signed WOODROW WILSON. The Richmond schools under the direction of Superv isor Murphy are enrolled in this patriotic undertaking. The movement has spread to the adults, and Richmond will prove that it can grow enough garden produce to supply its citizens and to refrain from competing with Uncle Sam in buying foodstuffs on the open market. The demand for lots here is greater than the supply. Vacant lot owners who have not listed their property are urged to do so at once, so that ground will not go to waste.

A

Penn Wampum Treaty Belts From Southern Workman.

LL students of American Indian history will be

gratified to learn that two valuable early records the Penn Wampum Belts presented to William

Penn by the Pennsylvania Indians are to remain on American soil for the future. These belts with other Penn relics, have been the property of the' late J. Merrick Head, who. in 1887, purchased the Penn estate, known as Pennsylvania Castle, at Portland, England, with all its historic contents. Through the generosity of Mr. Harmon YV. Hendricks these historic specimens were recently purchased at a private sale in London, and will be exhibited in the new museum of the American Indian, Heye Foundation, New York City, the only institution in the world devoted exclusively to the collections and study of the. American Indian. In the early days wampum played a greater role than any other of the documentary evidences of the acts, councils, treaties, and daily home life of the Eastern Indians, and the remaining examples of strings and belts that have been saved for future study and admiration have a story behind them that is well worth the telling. Penn and the peaceful, noble-minded Quakers desired nothing that was not just, while the Delaware Indians were peaceful hy disposition, and were not less generous in their views than their white brethren. Penn recognized this, and in noble, never-to-be-forgotten words he said to the denizens of the forest: "We are met on the path of mutual respect and fair dealiDg Xo advantage will be taken on either side, but all shall be openness and love. I will not call you children, for even parents sometimes chide their children too severely: nor brothers, for even brothers sometimes differ. Our friendship I will not liken to :t chain, for that the rain might rust or a fallen tree might break. We are all one flesh and blood.''

We shall orpose the advance of your army with all the blood and courage of our people." And the man with the book dipped his pen in the ink-horn and it was so written down. And the war-like man said unto an

other country: "By joining with ME in a 'Tripple Alliance' you have prom-; ised to come to MY aid in the event of j attack upon MY country. What are you going to do about it?" And Italy I replied: ""Your country has nov been attacked. You, yourself, are entirely to blame for this woeful carnage. We shall join other sister nations in opposing your autocratic plans." ,

And the man with the book dipped his pen in the ink-horn and it was so written down. And the war-like man, beating down the stubborn resistance of the small neutral country, did drive his hirelings into the peaceful plains and vineyards almost to the suburbs of Paris and he said unto the Frank: "I shall destroy your towns and cities; burn and wreck your sacred cathedrals; terrorize your people; loot your capitol and

sieze all your treasure of gold, silver and ' precious stones. What are you

going to do about it?' And France replied: "Not until every drop of patriot's blood has been shed in defense of our glorious country not until every centime of money has been spent in opposition, shall you be permitted to do this awful thing. And the man with the book dipped his pen in the ink-horn and it was so written down. And the mistress of the seas, upon whose dominion the sun never sets, came to the aid of the besieged nation across the Channel, with men and ships and money, and England said: This atrocious thing must not be tolerated. Such greed for power and conquest must be stifled else civilized man must become the vassal of a dangerous military ruler, whose thirst for blood has poisoned his own countrymen. Out duty is clear, and we accept it with all of its responsibilities." And the man with the book dipped his pen into the ink-horn and it was so written down. And the war-like man said unto another nation, three thousand miles across the sea. "At certain times, which I shall name, you will be PERMITTED to sail a few ships, which must be kept within prescribed limits and land where I shall distate. "They shall carry only such cargoes as I shall specify, and your own people may, with limited safety, travel as passengers cn such ships. If you do not accept these conditions, MY docs of the sea will slink upon you unawares, and send .them: with their precious cargoes of human lives into the depths of the ocean. What are you going to do about, it?" And the r resident said: "We have been patient to the breaking point. We have sought through honorable means, and through the medium of world diplomacy to avert this thing. We had hoped that you, at least your people, might see the error of your way. and that world peace might be brought about. "But your arrogance has become un-

"A really beautiful woman is always a healthy woman," remarked one of our noted beauty specialists, "for true beauty comes from tne blood and strong, steady nerves." Rich, red blood, the fountain of life and youth, shows itself In a clear, rosyskin, solid flesh, fine form and a kein bright mind. Red blooded women, with strong nervous vitality, are sought after by men; they are the hope and leaders of the world. American women lead the world in health, beauty and intelligence, and their number is Increasing. They have learned the value of Iron and Phosphates in keeping them in perfect condition. "The number of wea;.-, pale, fagged out, run down and nervous women is bound to decrease rapidly, once the power of Phosphated Iron becomes more generally known," said a leading doctor. "There is not a reason in the

world why women should not be i

strong, happy and a joy to look upon when the remedy is at hand." "Phosphated Iron has accomplished wonders with my patients. It has restored health, vitality, strong nerves and happiness to whole families. . It's the healthy, red, iron blooded, strong, phosphate-fed nerved men and wmen that enjoy life and lead in every work." Think it over!

Dear Sirs: I don't think there was ever anybody, man, woman or child who was or is more constipated than my little three year old boy was. Why sir, he was so bad before we got him the Nujol that we would have to leave his bowels unmoved for three or four days, then use almost a quart of water in a syringe to move them. The poor little fellow would almost go into spasms and his father could never stay in the room where he was. It would take almost an hour's work to get them to move. He had been constipated for two years. I think these patent medicines did it. I have known the doctor to be here and give him five tablespoons of castor oil, one every half hour to get his bowels to move. We tried four different doctors, one a well known specialist, but none could help him. Three advised operations, said it was the only cure. I have always had a horror of operations and I guess always will. We were going to try a well known woman doctor who claims she cures without an operation, when I coaxed my husband to let me try Nujol. I had read so much about it, I told him even if it didn't help him it would not hurt. We tried it, started giving him three tablespoonfuls a day, one after each meal, then as his bowels moved better ve decreased the dose as per directions. We used two bottles and a half and we cured him. How thankful we were. Tears come to my eyes, even now, when I think of how that poor little fellow suffered. Just think a little tot, hardly able to talk plainly. He has not taken a drop of it since last June. I have wanted to write before, but kept neglecting it till I thought perhaps my letter would relieve lots and lots of other people. Again I say, God Bless Nujol, and I will never be without it or cease to recommend it. From a mother whose heart will always be thankful for your great remedy for constipation. Dayton, Ohio, Mrs. J.
