BERLIN OR BUST!
"Peace without victory;"
I'ie without crust.
Doth contradictory;
Berlin or bust!
:o:
The profiteer thrives.
:o:
The consumer suffers.
:o:
It is a long lane that has no Lib
erty bonds.
-:o:-
An American without a bond is
like a hip without a sail.
:o:
An ounce of Liberty bonds will
prevent a pound of defeat.
:o:
A profiteer without honor in his
wn country is he who does not buy
Liberty bonds.
:o:
Many headline writers have short
iiHii the popular Spanish influenza
to Flu", but that is more familiar
than we care to get with it.
:o:
Women machinists faster than
mn." It's a precious good thing
n.cii make good soldiers, or they
wouldn't count in this war at all.
:o:
War times are topsy turvy in
i! any respects. Here in America,
for instance, politics is officially
"adjourned." when in reality it is
convened.
:o:
As a man of assets a man can
hcure that he's worth a million,
but as a matter of liability when
a-krd to buy a bond he's poorer
than a church mouse.
:o:
Hut i.n't fixing a maximum price
f $12 on shoes going to work a
prcat injustice ou the dear ladies
who "just can't find a thing under
51 that looks like anything?"
:o:
A uniform is exemption from buy
ing fourth Liberty bonds, yet the
men in uniform are eager to buy.
They understand just how import
ant it is that the loan succeeds.
:o:
The reason why so many people
are goinc to support Billy Barclay
this fall is the fact that in advance
they are assured that he will make
an excellent sheriff and that he can
be relied upon to be "Johnny on the
tpot" when duty calls.
:o:
While th movies haven't quite
n?de impossible things possible,
they' ve made a whole lot of improb
able things seem probable. For in
stance, there is a film now showing
variously over the country, entitled
"The Silent Woman."

A soldier gives you must lend.
:o:
Even La Follette is useful some
times.
:o:
Too many Liberty bond cooks will
spoil the Kaiser's broth.
:o:
A great many things that are
"too good to be true" are not true.
:o;
Increase your stock in the United
States by buying more Liberty
bonds. Nothing like it.
:o:
Several fellows who are running
for office this year will not need a
windshield to hold their car back
:o:
No need to learn German talk
peace with Liberty bonds. The
lleinies understand that sort of talk.
:o:
Mr. George II. Moses has been
nominated to succeed the late Sena
tor Gallinger., It is a good name for
a leader.
:o:
"Doughnut Day" is coming in the
War Work drive. You don't have
to eat them all just put up the
dough for the doughnut.
:o:
Hoover promises there will be no
food ration cards this year. Liberty
bonds insure the owner against food
cards in years to come.
:o:
Everybody connected with the
government in Berlin seems to be
resigning. Is it possible this action
is meant to be a delicate hint to the
kaiser?
:o:
One thing that particularly jars
Germany is that, having studied
over carefully all the hands held at
the table, Bulgaria has now picked
the winner.
:o:
Speaking about the suddenness of
these war marriages, we have come
to the conclusion that those who
marry in haste arc just as well as
some of those who marry in evening
dress.
:o.
The majority of the voters will
bear the reduced manufacture of
corsets with equanimity, and every
one will be pleased to economize as
much as possible on coffins, but the
greatest boon is the cut in talking
machines.
:o:
Strange how the notion to get
married seems to have struck so
many persons of 31 on up to 4
these last few weeks. Were it not
for his uniform and mustache, one
might mistake General Crowder for
Dan Cupid.
:o:
If you asked her about it, Mrs.
Necessity probably would say that
she is not the mother of all inven
tions, by a considerable figure. A
lot of them, she would say, drifted
in from Old Lady Idleness's house,
across the street.
:o:
County Clerk Frank Libershal is
clear up to his eyes In business, and
it is very doubtful if he can spare
the least time from his registration
and examination of soldier boys to
visit his friends. P'rank is busy al
most constantly day and night.
:o:
Another official suggestion from
Washington: The skirt of a dress of
suitable material can readily be
transformed into a suit for a small
boy. The real problem, however,
is to transfer the small boy into it,
especially if he has any idea it is a
made over suit.
:o:
Shoe manufacturers say the new
Government regulation will elimi
nate the tight shoe, and that deal
ers will have to "pay less attention
to colors and more to corns." Thus
does majestic reform march haud in
hand with war, for corns certainly
cannot "win the war."
SCRIPTURE FOR THE KAISER.
The kaiser, in his speech to the
Krupp . workers, showed himself
Komethintr of a student of the
Scriptures. Has he happened lately
to turn to Ezekiel vil, 25 and 27?
He might learn something to his ad
vantage by doing so:
Destruction cometh; and they
shall seek peace, and there shall be
none.
The king shall mourn, and the
prince shall be clothed with desola
tion and the hands of the people of
the land shall be troubled: I will
do unto them after their way, and
according to their deserts will I
judge them; and they shall know
that I am the Lord.
:o:
SPANISH "FLU."
A new brand of the disease for
merly known as la grippe, and first
attributed to France a quarter of a
century ago, is back in America
again with a Spanish trademark.
Spanish influenza is no joke, and
there is no inclination on our part
to make lis:ht of it. When the chief
medical men of civil and military
life advise that all places of public
gathering be closed and all camp::
and cantonments quarantined until
the germ is effaced, the humor of
the situation ceases to exist.
The "flu" would seem to be the
only bright spot on the kaiser's
horizon, so it is America's duty to
stamp it out, immediately.
Already it has stopped the call of
drafted men for the early October
contingent, and this is real help for
the Hohenzollerns. The war pro
gram must be put before everything,
so we are awaiting further orders
from the sanitary and medical
sharps.
But there should be no hysteria
in the matter. A cold in the nose.
a headache or a fever does not neces
sarily imply the Spanish "flu." Let
us not wish this disease upon our
selves for the sake of notoriety
which is far from desirable.
We recall in the dim past the
kissing bug" scaie. Some girl was
bitten on the lip by an insect per
haps a wasp. The press picked up
the story, and in a short time every
harmless beetle that buzzed through
the ambient caused woeful shudders
was suspected of being a kissing
bug.
Keep your feet dry and your face
smiling!
Don't let the Spanish "flu" get
your goat. That's just what the
kaiser wants! World-Herald.
-:o:-
JUST FORD.
"Uncle" Henry Ford announces
that he will wear no party fetters,
lie believes in a chainless drive to
ward the Senate. No binding plat
form for him, no "specific obliga
tions" of any kind. No definite
principles. No political Ideas ex
cept such as may happen to occur
to him. Just Henry Ford. Those
who vote for him must take him
just like that and because a Voice
from Washington told them to.
But there is a tragic sadness in
his further assertion that he "hasn't
spent a cent, and won't," to aid lib
crusade toward the Capitol. Prob
ably it. does not matter, as there is
another candidate in the field, run
ning on a definite platform and with
a high record of governmental
achievement. It will be Senator
Newberry.
:o:-
CANADA'S WHEAT CROP.
The latest reports from the Ca
nadian Northwest confirm the earl
ier estimates that the wheat crop
will be about one-fourth smaller
than last year's, and lhat there will
be not very much surplus for ex
port. It must be borne in mind that
this result is in spite of a really
increased acreage, and most ener
getic effort in what Is naturally the
best wheat country in the world.
The cause is simply phenomenally
bad weather; a season more un
propltious in many 'ways than any
hitherto recorded. : i '
It !s a lesson in the hazards of
farming and food production on a
large scale. It ought to be enough
to show the need of accumulating a

our future food supply. The lean
years come witn mo lat ones; it is
the long average that must be con
sidered. Let us be thankful that we

keep on saving. And, far more im

THE REPUBLICAN YARDMAN.
By their deleat of ardaiiian ot
Mississippi the other day, the demo
crats did in their senatorial prima
ries what the republicans of Nebras
ka ought to have done to Norris of
Nebraska, who was a candidate for
renominat ion to the seriate. Having
nominated Norris, however, the re
publicans of his state have forfeited
the sympathy of Americans every
where whose hearts are in the war
and have been from the first. "W

ARRIVES IN FRANCE SATE.
Yesterday morning, Mrs. Carl
Halt on received a cablegram from
France announcing the safe arrival
there of her husband, the cablegram
announcing, "Safe Well" not much
of it but telling a lot of good news
and creating a world of satisfaction,
for the suspense while one is going
over, is great on the friends who
await for word and it a long time
coming. The many friends of both
