Dr. Masaryk ; The Gra,nd Rapids Nev?s says: N Dr. Masaryk, the firspresident of the new, Czecho-Slovak, or Bohemian republic, ribs sailed from the United States to take his place at the head of his government. ' Of all the new republics in Europe, that of Bohemia appears to be most quickly organizing on safe and sound lines. - During his residence in the United States and the allied countries the past two or more years, Dr. Masaryk has proved himself an exceptionally able leader of men All his life has given to the cause of his long oppressed people and to liberty for all mankind. His journeys through the selfgoverning nations have broadened him. He has come into contact at first hand with many democratic peoples. Thus he has been able to absorb the thought of many races, to assimilate their ideasr-and by the same token he should be inspired to choose a straight course, avoiding the difficulties that the older and more tried repub
lics have had. to encounter in their process of development. ; J:.l -V; - -' : ' Stephen D. Duggan, " who interviewed : Dr. Masaryk at his home in Washington several weeks ago, and who gives an account of his inter
view in the American Review of Reviews for
November, says ; "I came away from . my visit feeling that in Dr. Masaryk were combined some
of the noblest qualities of Washington and Lincoln." With a leader of that caliber we may
expect the, new Bohemia to become in a short time a strong, well-governed and well-ordered
republic. . :
Common Sense and Shopping From the Peoria Journal.
rtr HERE are all kinds of good arguments in favor of
' I s early shopping. '
, First is the patriotic argument by shopping .early
we would permijthe stores to carry on, their business without adding people who are needed in other more vital
Industries at this time. - " Early shopping permits of a greater range of selection.!' ;'.." " ' .' ';
It' makes possible the selection of gifts which will
be most appreciated by the recipient. '
It allows the donor to pick out presents which repre
sent himself or herself.
It helps to do away with the last minute rush which
wears out clerks and salesladies.
It helps to avoid last minute congestion of the mails.
It makes unnecessary the last minute overwork of
railway mail clerks or mail carriers.
, It saves gifts from destruction in packed mail sacks or cars. '.;.-.' ' It lifts a great load from the minds of those who shop.
And, after everything is paid, early shopping is good old-fashioned common sense.

Concerning Sleep.
"Where do I sleep next?" queries
Albert C. Jones, of the 140th infantry.
35th division, and he drops forthwith
into rhyme in the following fashion:
I've slept In cradle and I've slept
in arms when I was a baby safe from
alarms; I've slept on the prairie, shooting the goose, and slept in the bush.
hunting the moose: I've slept on a
steamboat; my head on deck, I've slept in churclu with a crick in ray neck; I've slept In wide fields under the stars, and I've slept on trains in ancient box cars; I've slept in beds of purple and gold, and slept in Flanders
in mud and in cold. I've slept in a dugout with rat and. mouse, and in France
I have slept In a fairly good house. I've slept In a barn In an empty horse stall, and I've slept in old sheds on no bed at all.' I've slept in a billet on a floor of hard brick, and I've slept on a bank along side a crick. And now I'm sleeping on a stretcher of wire, and I pray that my next sleep will be
near a fire. I'm tired of wet and of mud and of cold. Oh, when can I sleep in the old home fold? Owing to the well known scarcity, the only new thing on the ordinary restaurant bill of fare Is an occasional grease spot
"is that the father swan or the mother
swan?" "Which one do you mean, Johnny?
asked the old man, glancing In the
direction indicated by the boy.
"I mean the one over there," answered Johnny. "The one, with all the feathers pecked off his head and isn't allowed to have the biscuit or nothing." "Yes, my son," promptly replied papa, with just a suspicion of a sigh, "that's the father swan, all right"
In a Y. M. C. A. building at Camp Forrest a bright faced young soldier leaned against the counter and earnestly inquired, "Have sou got any algebra books?" The secretary, delighted at this manifestation of interest in higher things, scanned the book shelves. "No, my boy ," he replied, "I'm sorry to say that I haven't I have several arithmetics, but not a single algebra. Will anything else do?" "O, give me any good book of adventure," tsaid the boy. And presently the secretary recovered sufficiently to realize that the soldier wanted a book by Horatio Alger, and selecting "Puck and Luck, or from Porter to President," he sent the applicant on his way rejoicing.
WITH AMERICAN AVIATORS IN FRANCE, Sept. 20, (Correspondence of The Associated Press) . . . the aviators went silently to their quarters for their great, heavy Arctic clothing. , In the turn of a hand they were back on the field, swathing and swaddling themselves to the eyes, tucking chocolate in their pockets (for they get hungry up in the air), or breaking open a fresh package of chewing gum, which helps to alleviate nervousness, and has a steadying effect." New York Times. ' Please remember some soldier boy over there received that package of your, favorite Adams gum, when you found it missing from the counter. , If you can't get Adams Black Jack, try Adams California Fruit, Adams Pepsin, Adams Yucatan or any other Adams brand.
