Naturally, then, it is mainly the fit ture of the country that is to be eon-1 sidered What that future is to be will depend upon our action now. it is to the credit of the American people that they have always had a clear vision of the duty of the present generation to posterity That vision was responsible for the Revolutionary | war it was the stimulus in the war of 1M2 And when the Mexican question assumed grave proportion.- the same thought was at the fore in the national mind Not so much the interest of our own posterity as that of our fellow man was the stimulus in the brush with Spain But ihotlghout her whole life this country" has never failed to j pla< e the true interests of posterity be lore prei-ent ease and comfort V' hat tan he said then, of the young man or woman who is not concerned tot-r the out< one of this struggle?

"It Is plain enough how we were forced into the war.

The military n as ters of Germany denied us the right to le- neutral.

NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC Under a recent ruling by the Pro vost .Marshal General designated as ruling No. 7, the Selective Draft Ser- j vice Act exempts no person from mil-: itary service on the ground of depen dency. Sec. 2- Provides: “Section 2 of the Selective Service Law exempts no person from military service on the ground of dependency. It oifly auth orizes the President to exclude or dis charge from draft, those in a status with respect to person dependent up on them for support which renders their exclusion of discharge advisable It is to disturb dependents as little as the raising of an army will permit. Sec. 27 of the law provides that the Provost Marshal General acting through any person generally of spe cially authorized to act may appeal from the decision of any lceal board. It shall be the duty of the Provost Marshal General to authorize an ap peal in all cases where certificates of discharge has been grented under the provisions of subdivision (h of sec tion 20 of rules and regulations. “(h) Those in a status with respect to persons dependent upon them for support which renders their exclusion or discharge desirable ” All who are interested will notice that under General Rule No. 7 by the Provost Marshal General of August 11th. 1917, there are no exemptions on the ground of dependency except such as may be advisable in the dis cretion of the President. I am the unfortunate through whom the Provost Marshal General takes appeals and he rules that appeal be taken in all cases. C. W. Trumble. REGISTRATION DAY FOR WOMEN. * We are engaged in the greatest war of all time. The outcome virtu ally depends upon the affectiveness of the participation of our country and upon the effectiveness of that participation rests our future as a na tion. It will not suffice that we merely : end an army to fight side by side with the armies of our allies. We must mobilize the millions of our people who remain behind, for such service as they can best render. Ne braska has set an enviable example in effective co-operation with the fed eral government in all things calcu lated to further our country’s inter est in the great struggle and no class i f people is sacrificing more unself i hly than the noble women of the state. In a brief period of time thou sands of the finest and most stalwart young men to be found in any na tion will represent Nebraska in the army of our country. Nothing must be left undone that will promote their comfort or conserve their lives and energies. In order that this end may be ac complished and the efforts of the thousands of women( many of them mothers and sisters of our soldiers) I e effectively co-ordinated, I, Keith Neville, governor of Nebraska, at the solicitation of the patriotic women of Nebraska, designate Wednesday, Sep tember 12, as registration day for women, and upon which day and date they may register for such service as they are willing and able to render' throughout the present emergency. ] The foregoing proclamation of the governor makes September 12 the day for all women of the state to present themselves at the polling places for registration for war serv ice. Every woman is able to give some small portion of time to relief work, either at home or abroad. Tf she is a busy woman she can promise one hour a week at least, to be used in making bandages, visiting the sick, caring for children whose mother has added responsibility during the war period. An office girl can promise one hour’s assistance each week in typ ing. The time spent in home garden ing can be regarded as war service if it adds to the food conservation. The registration cards will be kept in the counties where they have been sign ed and when the United States gov ernment has calls for women physi cians, nurses, clerks, .stenographer, a glance at the tabulated list will show what assisstance can be secured from Nebraska.

She has lived a social outcast; she dies with the smile of a great sacrifice on her lips. This is the part played by Gladys Brockwell in the new Wm. Fox photoplay, "Sins of Her Parent.” A moral lesson that every mother should see. At the opera house Sat urday. THE LIBERTY LOAN CYCLE. Through the sale of Liberty Loan Bonds the United States is borrowing large sums of money from its citizens, its business men, farmers, bankers, wage earners, merchants manufactur ers. The government collects this money and disburses it in two ways. I art it expends itself and part it loans our allies. The United States and these other governments spent it for American products and American la bor and it goes back directly into the hands of the people, the American bus iness man, farmer, banker, wage earn er, merchant and manufacturer. This is the cycle . John Smith the farmer and Thomas Brown the wage earner each has purchased a Liberty Loan Bond paying down the initial payment of 2 per cent. On June 28th they made the 18 per cent payment, depositing the amount in their banks and sending checks to the Federal Re serve Bank of their district. The Fed eral Reserve Bank collects the check and redeposits the money with the lo cal banks. Later the Treasury Depart ment draws against it and the money is again lodged with the Federal Re serve Bank. It is almost immediately withdrawn from the Federal Reserve Bank either by the United States or by some foreign government engaged in war with Germany to which the Unit ed States has advanced money and is paid out for American products or la bor. Some of it is spent for farm pro ducts and raw material, and some of it for manufactured products, thus going back into the hands of American citi zens. Therefore the money paid in by the above mentioned John Smith and Tho mas Brown on June 28th in part pay ment of their Liberty Loan Bonds may have gotten back into their hands in time to make up part of their payments made July 30th.

Office over THE TWO GLASSES There stood two classes filled to the brim On a rich man’s table rim to rim. One was ruddy and red as blood. And one was as dear as a crystal flood. Said the glass of wine .to his paler brother. "Lets tell tales of the past to each other. I can tell of revels and banquets and mirth. For I was king and ruled the earth For the purest and greatest souls on earth Stood under my spell as though struck with blyrth. From the heads of kings I have tori, their crowns. From the heights of fame I have hurleo men down. I have blasted many an honored name Taken virtue and given shame. 1 have tempted youth with sip and taste That lias made his future bare and waste. For greater than any king am I Or any array beneath the sky.. 1 have made the arm of the driver fall And driven his train from the iron rail I have made good ships go down at 9ea And the shrieks of the lost were sweet to me. Fame, strength, genius, wealth, before me fall, For my power is great and over all. Ho! Ho., pale brother, said the wine. "Can you quote of deeds as great as mine?" Said the glass of water. "I cannot boast ur a king dethroned or a murdered host. But I can tell of hearts that were sad By my crystal sparks made bright and glad, Of hfeads I have cooled, of brows 1 have laved. Of hands I have cooled and souls I saved. I have leaped through the valley, dash ed down the mountain. Slept in the sunshine, dripped from the fountain I have eased the hot forehead of fever and pain And made the parched meadows look fertile with grain. You have heard of the powerful wheel of the mill, That ground out the flour, and turned at my will. I can tell of manhoid debased by you That I have uplifted and crowned anew I cheer, I strengthen and help and aid. And gladden the heart of man and maid, I set the wine chained captive free, And all are better for Knowing me. These are the tales they told each other. The glass of wine and his paler brother As they stood together filled to the brim. On a rich man’s table rim to rim. —Selected. If your neighbor is prosperous, let hint prosper. Don’t growl, grunt or grumble. Say a good word to him and let him go at that. Don’t be a kicker, our time will come. No one is the whole show. If you see that the town is moving along rapidly, feel good about it Help tilings along. Show a little push. Try to get a little benefit yourself. Don’t stand around like a chilly cadaver and waste your time feeling sore because someone else has more success and sense than you have. Do a little hustling, yourself, and if you can say a good word for your town or people, say it like a prince If you are full of bile and disposed to say something mean put a padlock on your mouth and keep it there. Don't be a kicker.—Ord Journal. Mrs. J. Eichelberg returned to her home at Marquette Saturday after vis iting here with John Cowling and fam Uy. SUMMER COMPLAINT. During the hot -weather of the sum mer months some member of almost every family is likely to be troubled with an unnatural looseness of the bowels, and it is of the greatest im portance that he be treated promptly, which can only be done when the med icine is kept at hand. Mrs. F.*F. Scott, Scottsville, N. Y„ states, “I first used Chamberlain’s Colic and Diarrhoea Remedy as much as five, years ago. At that time 1 had a severe attack of summer complaint and was suffering intense pain. One dose relieved me. Other members of my family have since used it with like results.
