Leaders will put over the following thoughts: "United States lost about 80,000 soldiers in the late war. . During the same two years 180,000 persons died of cancer in Jhis country.: Cancer is now killing oue out of every 10 persons over AO years old. Many of these deaths are pre ventable, since .cancer , is frequently curable, if recognized and properly treated in its early stages. . Open warfare by .open discus sion will mean the prevention of tnany needless deaths." Three Stills Are Seized , In Fillmore County Geneva, Neb.. Oct. 22. (Special.)

The arena of wuinau's toil is in public places today, but she can still be is close to the angel as ever. Jmtead of finding work it home many ire forced to enter offices, mills, shop i. banks. warehouses and almost very con ceivable line of frade. Everyone likes to see a woman remain a woman and whether she i strong as a moun tain or fresh as a rose, she can ktill hold her true place. While she- list more freedom, equality and high er education, we still ought to remember that she is a woman. The memory of mother, sister and wife ought to force upon the mind of every man who associates with a woman in a business way that she is entitled to the same consideration as his own womenfolk. She Commands Men. The desire to have one's own chil dren treated well ought to lead every employer to treat those who serve him in the same way. On the other side, woman ought not expose, herself to or expert any other treatment She should check immediately any word or action Out trespasses on virtue. , If a woman is true to btrsolf and to her listers, and, mind you, he has only to be true and every man will respect her. the can command any treatment she really want, tali of beautiful things come to us if we are only good, honest, pure and true. I can not imagine Mary, the mother of our Lord, with skirts too short, wearing bobbed hair, smoking or drinking. I believe a woman has as much right to smoke as a man, but I ran't imagine Mary doing it. Reverence Is Taught When I see a woman sniuke it hurts me, way down deep, and 1 be lieve it hurts other men, too. The Bible is the foundation of woman's rights, but further then that Christianity has taught men to rev erence women. It is among the idle rich that the most liberties now are being taken, the morale of women workers is on the whole, sound. And to all women I would lay, think long and hard before you throw away any of your title to the respectful admiration of men, God meant woman to be a mother -the iort of mother to whom her children can look up and upon whom in years to come they will look back with a love and understanding that influences their whole Attitude toward the sex. - Farms in Oinalia Trade Territory Worth Billion Bank Dcpoits Average $3,672 Per Family Local liusinoa Increases 263 Per Cent In Ten Years.
