Wilson's Plea for a Democratic Congress President Wilson's appeal for a return of a Democratic congress as proof that the American people approve of his administration strikes a discordant note in his "politics is adjourned" program and generally will be resented by the American people as an intrusion on their right to elect whomsoever they please to the national legislature. . It will take a long stretch of the imagination to believe the president's assertion that a return of a Republican majority "would be certainly interpreted on the other side of the water as a repudiation of my leadership," and especially so since the Republican senators and representatives have supported every war measure he has asked to be enacted into law. There is only one test that need be applied to a Democrat or a Republican nominee did he support the war program heart and soul? If the answer is yes, there is no reason why he should not be returned or elected. The test of loyalty will influence the voters, and not the president's appeal. President Wilson has lowered the bars for partisanship strife and contention by his appeal. If politics henceforth plays a deciding role in congressional decisions, the president has no one but himself to blame for the situation which he created in today's appeal. His action will re-act against his own party, and will cause men to hesitate before they entrust more power to the Democratic party.

The Field of Honor Commenting on the deaths of soldiers from influenza, the Indianapolis News says editorially: All the heroes of this great war are not oh the fighting line in France. In the military camps throughout the country the epidemic of influenza has taken the lives of hundreds of our soldiers. These boys left their homes with the great desire in their hearts to "arrive safely in France," to be able to help avenge some of the atrocious deeds of the Huns. Patiently they have trained to prepare themselves for advancement, giving their most loyal devotion to their flag and their country. Those stricken with disease do not get the credit of dying on. the battlefield, yet they have made a hard fight and great sacrifices, and while they did not die on the battlefields, they died on the field of honor. They gave their iives for their country with just the same spirit of loyalty and faith ; they were in the service of their country. If a soldier is to die, he wants to die in action, but in the great accounting it is all the same, they all go on the Roll of Honor with an equal share in the glory. The soldiers who died in training camps enlisted for service, not knowing what their lot was to be. Their work was finished before they reached the active battlefield, but the field of honor is wherever a man's heart is true, wherever he has done his best, and these boys who have died in the training camps have done the best that it was in their power to do. Their country acknowledges and appreciates their faith and loyalty. When a soldier is ordered to the battle front, his very soul is stirred with the significance of what he is about to do. The thrill of battle, the grim determination for revenge completely overshadows any thought of what might be ; but the soldier who lies day after day on his cot, knowing that the glory of the battlefield is his only in thought, then it is that he fights the greatest battle with his soul. The disappointment to him is bitter. His name with the names of the slain will be on America's great honor roll as having given the best he had to his country.

CONTRIBUTED VERSE

Your blood may be red And your heart may be white. The blood in you veins may be blue. But what have you done For the Boys over there For the boys who are fighting for you? Down deep In your heart. Are you doing your part? Will you help your country see it through? Will you sacrifice all, Give aid when It calls, To the boys who are fighting for you? Have you helped with the loan? Ha3 your son left your home? Have you helped Just one boy that you know? Have you crushed all the lies Cf the dangerous spies, For the boys that are fighting for you? If you've not done your part. Right now will you start, Will you hustle and broaden your view? Just do all you can For those wonderful men, For the boys who are fighting for you. Let each turn of the wheel Back up your "cold steel,' To the limit then you're fighting too. Then "To Hell with the Huns," You will stand by your guns, And the boys who are fighting for you. Do you love liberty In this land of the free? Are you proud of the Red, White and Blue? Then play the game square For the boys over there, For the boys who are fighting for you. And on next Sunday morn, Go to church not to mourn, Just drop on your knees In the pew, And pray the good Lord To send safely back The brave boys who are fighting for you. EDWARD JACKSON ALLEN.

DAIRYMEN RAISE PRICE OF MILK

The price of retail milk was raised by dairymen of the city at a meeting held at the court house Thursday evening. Milk will be sold for 7 cents a pint, 13 cents a quart, cream for 13 cents a half pint and whipping cream at 20 cents a half pint. State food administrator Barnard in a letter to the dairymen, gave his consent to this increase in price, stating that an increase would induce the farmers to produce more milk. Although county food administrator Gilbert was unable to be at the meeting, h gave his approval to the raise suggested by the dairymen. This raise will go into effect Saturday morning. The dairymen say that they are forced to pay farmers more money in order to get the milk for few farmers give attention to raising milk; the different articles used by the dairymen, such as bottle caps and bottles, have raised in price, the men stated, and labor is scarce and larger salaries are demanded by men working for the dairymen. W omen's Organization to Combat Contagion The local review of the Women's Benefit Association have received instructions from Miss Bina M. West, supreme commander of the association to organize at once and assist the government in fighting the "flu." As the association has established hospital committees and a membership of 195,000 women throughout the United States It is well equipped to help. The organization will be represented in this locality by Mrs. Serrett as commander and Mrs. Timberlake as record keeper. Attractive cards with instructions as to preventive precautions have been sent out and placed in the homes of the membership.

HAAS ATTENDS CONFERENCE

E. M. Haas left for Chicago Friday morning to attend the Chicago headquarters' district conference of the United War Fund committee, which is to me held Friday and Saturday in Orchestra Hall.

CONSUMERS URGED TO GET IN COAL

The domestic coal problem of Indiana will be solved if twenty per cent, more of the households will at once get in their winter's supply. The United States Fuel Administration for Indiana insists that it is necessary, if the state is to go into the winter feeling secure, to increase the household storage during the next thirty days. Every effort is being made to prevent the possibility of the forced close down of industrial plants during the extreme weather of the winter. The fuel administration points to the fact that industrial storage at this time is pretty much limited to plants having war contracts and to public utilities. The so-called non-essential factories are now dependent and will be dependent during the winter on the current mine production and if the household demands of the state are so heavy that they make serious inroads on the current production, industrial plants will have to suffer and aa a result of their closing down or cutting down operations working people will feel the effects in their pay envelopes. There has been a greater storag of domstic coal in Indiana than ever before, but the fuel authorities insist that it lacks somewhat of being enough to remove all anxiety from the situation. Consequently those who have failed to buy coal should get busy al once and see to it that they are protected against their winter demands. The fuel administration does not deny that the anthracite situation is most unsatisfactory and uncertain. It is advising every one who can possibly do so, to protect themselves with bituminous coal or wood because it cannot, at this time, give positive assurance that anthracite coal will be had in any community. It is doing its utmost to accelerate shipments from the anthracite fields but results, thus far, do not justify any one in holding back in the hope of obtaining their full requirements of anthracite. Play safe and buy your bituminous coal or wood now, is the reply the

fuel administration is making to all inquiries regarding the winter prospects. NOTICE CONCERNING USE OF POTATOES H. W. Gilbert, federal food administrator ofr Wayne county received instructions through a bulletin some weeks ago that all bakers of bread should eliminate the use of raw potatoes. It is permissable to use potato flour. The baker's reports that are coming in show that some of the bakers are not quite clear on this subject. From this date on all reports coming in with raw potatoes as a substitute will not be passed by the federal authorities and will be subject to severe penalty.

The Influenza Germs Attack the Lining of the Air Passages. When VapoRub is Applied Over the Throat and Chest, the Medicated Vapors Inhaled Loosen the Phlegm, Open the Air Passages and Stimulate the Mucous Membrane to Throw Off the Germs.

Adv.

Most authorities now agree that what we call Spanish Influenza is simply the old-fashioned grip, which was epidemic here in 1889-90. The influenza germs enter through the nose and mouth and attack the lining of the air passages nose.throat and bronchial tubes. There is no cure or specific for this disease, but Nature will throw off the attack, if only you conserve your strength. A competent physician should always be called. The use of VapoRub does not interfere with any internal treatment and it is now being used by broadminded physicians everywhere, in order to stimulate the lining of the air passages to throw off the grip germs, to aid in loosening the phlegm and keeping the air passages open, thus making the breathing . easier. Hot, wet towels should be applied over the throat, chest and back between the shoulder blades to open the pores. Then VapoRub should be rubbed in over the parts until the skin is red, spread on thickly and covered with two thicknesses of hot flannel cloths. Leave the clothing loose around the neck, as the heat of the body liberates the ingredients in the form of vapors. These vapors, inhaled with each breath, carry the medication directly to the parts affected. At the same time, VapoRub is absorbed through and stimulates the skin, attracting the blood to the surface, and thus aids in relieving the congestion within. HOW TO AVOID THE DISEASE. Evidence seems to prove that this is a germ disease, spread principally by human contact, chiefly through

coughing, sneezing or spitting. So avoid persons having colds which means avoiding crowds common drinking cups, roller towels, etc Keep up your bodily strength by plenty of exercise in the open air, and good food. KEEP FREE FROM COLDS Above all, avoid colds, as colds irritate the lining of the air passages and render them much better breeding places for the germs. Use Vick's VapoRub at the very first sign of a cold. For a head cold, melt a Httle VapoRub in a spoon and inhale the vapors, or better still, use VapoRub in a benzoin steam kettle. If this is not available, use, an ordinary teakettle. Fill half full 'of boiling water, put In half a teaspoon of VapoRub from time to time keep the kettle just slowly boiling and inhale the steam arising. NOTE Vick's VapoRub is the discovery of a North Carolina druggist, who found how to combine, in salve form, Menthol and Camphor with such volatile oils as Eucalyptus, Thyme, Cubebs, etc., so that when the salve is applied to the body heat, these ingredients are liberated in the form of vapors. VapoRub can be had in three sizes at all druggists. While comparatively new in certain parts of the North, it is the standard home remedy in the South and West for all forms of cold troubles over six million jars were sold last year. VapoRub is particularly recommended for children's croup or colds, as it is externally applied and can, therefore, be used freely and often without the slightest harmful effects. Adv.
