Subscribing to the Red Cross
Wayne county has oversubscribed its Red
Cross allotment.
Surely, an achievement that makes all of us
feel happy and proud of our county.
Our pleasure is intesif ied immeasurably by
reason of the fine spirit displayed by all contri
butors. Solicitors say residents not only were glad to give to the cause buLwere proud of the
fact that the opportunity for giving had present ed itself. .
Many stories are told of the pleasant surprises awaiting solicitors. One woman had just
completed a washing. The money she earned for the work, a dollar bill, was her contribution to the qause. It recalls the Bible story of the wid
ow's mite.
This is the spirit that is actuating our giving
these days.. No longer do we give to "get rid
of the solicitors. . We give because we feel that it is a sacred obligation to fulfill a still more
sacred duty. This is the Christian spirit to give because we love to give and not because we are forced to give. As we enter into this spirit more and more, the blessed reciprocal relation between giving and reaping a reward of spiritual satisfaction and pleasure will assert itself. The humble woman who gave the reward for many hours of work over the wash tub obtained a feeling of pleasure and satisfaction that only those can appreciate who can enter into the state of this woman. ' " And on the other hand, there are hundreds of persons in better stations of life who gave abundantly and enjoyed the pleasure of writing out a check of generous proportions. They also had their reward and blessing. There is a great difference in quantity between the small gift and the large one, but in essence and quality there is no difference. The same principle underlies both gifts, and it is this principle which makes all of us one.
the boys overseas. Our leaders need not iear
that the people will object to the utilization of
all our man and money power to win the war.
We set out to help the Allies defeat Germany, and we have consecrated our whole national life
to that purpose. ;
During the closing months of last year,, our morale at home was low because we could not see progress in the military establishment. It grated on our nerves to see that we were dilly-dallying instead of striking hard and fast. Then it was that we heaped criticism on the heads of the war department. Their replies did not satisfy
the people, and subsequent developments showed that there had ben unncessary delays which the
military authorities seemingly tried to hide in
stead of admit. When they saw the temper of the people, they began to speed up, the result
being that the last three months have shown surprising results. The ability of America to transport the large army we now have in France in-so short a time has evoked the praise of our Allies. It is admitted now that we have surpassed the early achievements of England in. this direction. The American people demand action that brings results, and will not complain if the lavish use of their men and money attains definite purposes. President Wilson and Secretary of War Baker may rest assured that the people stand firmly behind them.
The sweeping army draft order issued Thurs
day by President Wilson through Provost Mar
shal General Crowder, with the object of driving into the army war work slackers, idlers and able
bodied young men not engaged in usful occupa
tion has the unqualified support of the nation. Only the full-time output of our factories will assure the production of munitions necessary
for the army. An idler in war times is a menace
A part-time worker who loafs part of the day or
week is a slacker. Fight or toil are the alternatives. The government will have the co-operation of every community in the United States in making the undesirables go to work or join the army.
CONTRIBUTED VERSE
Mortgaging Our Man Power Unlimited power to call men of military age to the colors has been granted to Secretary of War Baker by the House Military Affairs Committee. "This is a notice to the world that the complete man power of America is mortgaged to the successful prosecution of the war," said Secretary Baker after he left the committee room. . This is the kind of action the American people want. As a nation we are aggressive and impatient at delays. We are apostles of the "Go get em" spirit, which has become" the motto of

"They Are Some Women"
From the Woman's Home Companion
HILE I hand out chewing gum in the Authors'
Service Canteen I can listen to the lad leaning on my little counter. "Say, what's 'chewing
gum' in French? I wanted to tell a French lady how to
use it, and I don't kuow what they called it in their lingo
"Well, now, I think a good deal of these ladies over
here," he went on. "I was in the railroad station where
the French fellows come in on leave just from the trench
es that muddy that you can hardly see their eyes! And
they go back to the trenches from there, too to Mons or
Verdun and any other old hell you can think of. Well,
was watching a lot going back, and all their women seemed to be on hand to say goodbye to them. Well, you ought to have seen 'em! Talking and laughing to beat the band; and holding the kids up to the car windows so that their daddies could see 'em. Why, they was like a flock of sparrows; jabbering and screaming at each other,
and kissing their hands!
"Then the train pulled out, and what do you suppose happened? Well, I'll be jiggered, if every one of them
women didn't bust right, out crying! What d'you know?
Chattering away in their confounded foreign language, one minute, and laughing, and holding up their kids, and
the next minute busting out crying! 'By heck, said the
boy thoughtfully, 'I don't understand their lingo,' but they
are some women!"
Moment
CHARGE THE LINE Soon the balmy breezes, productive of colds and sneezes, will dispel our dreams of winter, deftly throw us off our guard; soon we'll see the redcheeked maiden and her brother Johnny spadin' In their Uncle Sammy garden and a-rakln' up the yard. These and other signs will tempt us and the plpp germ won't exempt us to remove our fuzzy-wuzzies and our beeveedees to don. When our last wish has been granted, and our friends have got us planted, we won't need our bull-lined heavies, but we'll wish we'd kept 'em on! But, however, do not shiver at this warning; do not quiver. Buy some goozum for your system and prepare to charge the line. Should you see a grip germ, swat him on the beezer when you've got him, to the scrap heap then consign him, and you'll be progressing fine. List to us there is no reason Just because this is the season when the fickle jade of springtime stalks her prey why you should wait. Pipe the girls in scant apparel, needing censors or a barrel; fear they not the germs, the dear things. Emulate them laugh at Fate. Looks as though the great Teutonic blunderbuss is about to bust. And when it busts, it will be the greatest bust in the history of the world.

; RED CROSS (By Rev. D. S. Ewry. Pastor M. Church, New Paris, Ohio.) Oh, the good we all may do. Lifting burdens hard to carry In these days of toil and worry; Through the Red Cross. . You can do someone a kindness In these days of sin and blindness; Through the Red Cross. ; You can to their wants attend, Be they enemy or friend; Through the Red Cross. Many hearts are cold and dreary; Plant the flower of love so cheery,
By your sympathy for those so near
you; Through the Red Cross.
Soon this flower will bud and blossom
By the care of him who loves them;
Dew and sunshine be upon them As they ripen into grain ; Through the Red Cross.
Sons, husbands, lovers, they Are standing by the right; Must defend, protect their country, And, alone with God, must fight. We can help them; we can cheer them ' Through the Red Cross. Do not wait until tomorrow. Lives are tender, souls are precious. We our bit will do, for we hope They will see us through: If we are only true To the Red Cross. Feed them now, warm them now, clothe them now. Lest they weary grow, and our cause shall be defeated, Ending with an iron rod beated by our enemy and foe. And our Red Cross fail to do.
Mothers , fathers hearts are sad as
they think of loved ones true Who are standing by the right Though it cost their lives in fight And they thank their God above For his comforts and his love
Which comes to them Through the Red Cross. Oh, our days for work are few. May we lend a helping hand To our neighbors and our friends In the sacrifice they make That our world may be the better And God's name may be the greater; Through the Red Cross. e O, let us not despond; faith in in God will make us stronger, If we cling to him the longer. And determine we will do what we can to see it through. In these days of fret and wonder Through the Red Cross. Thank the ladies for the sweaters, .And the mitts and socks so new; God will help them, God will bless them, And those boys will ne'er forget them, And the Red Cross shine the brighter In the world beyond the skies. Fear not, God is still upon his throne, Our aching hearts doth know, And will bring an end to woe On that bright and summers day Wipe ail sorrow's tears away , If our bit we do today Through the Red Cross.

Hudson Super-Six Touring Limousine
? a HIS new model answers every requirement H of the owner who drives and who on occasion JL wishes to use it as a formal limousine. But more important than the exclusiveness of its body design is its independence from the present scarcity of expert automobile repairmen. The best mechanics out of every important repair shop have been enlisted to look after the motors of the army. They are needed to keep the aeroplanes, motor trucks, automobiles and ambulances in running order. Those who are left don't know so much about automobiles. Every shop is at lower efficiency. Cars which call for constant service attention simply won't be as satisfactory as they have been. There will be no one to give them the needed attention. The car that satisfies this year must be so built that it will stand upon its own design. Its coistruction as turned out by its builder must be final. It is not a time when the buyer can safely rely upon the mechanical organization of the local dealer, however efficient and willing he has been in the past. 50,000 Super-Sixes Prove Their Reliability No one doubts the position of the Hudson SuperSix. There are 50,000 in service. For two years it has far outsold any other fine car. . Motorists are familiar with the character and number of its records made in every field that calls for super-endurance. Those tests did reveal limits, though far beyond those of the average car. They enabled Hudson engineers to extend the endurance of this new series. The report from thousands of earlier cars, as made by private owners, also helped in showing what was necessary to make the Super-Six what we believe the present series to be the most enduring car in the world.
