The democracy of -manners is the etiquet of kindliness and consideration to all, irrespective of culture, of riches or poverty, or of sex.

DOXT WASTE ENEROT Energy tells by ounces tor victory. It is undemocratic to waste It even in amusements. England has abandoned golf. The labor required for its upkeep has been turned to the service of the nation. Links famed for their beauty are now growing grass tor cattle or are plowed up for tur nip crops.

It is easy for anyone to anaylze his occupation and to determine whether or not it is superfluous and therefore undemocratic. Does every ounce of your en ergy forward this war? Or are you in some way a drag on victory All service ranks the same with God" and with democracy PROVIDED IT IS SERVICE.

Harriet James of Morgan Hill, a't wait to havevthe dark" deed discovered. She ADVERTISED it.

Her little hatchet has slashed deep into the mortgage on the ranch, and its cutting edge is still keen. ONCE CANDIDATE FOR PRESIDENT; QUITS SOCIALISTS Br The TJRlted Press.

To -i-ttne-t, -rarer. 1 "Service tor self as ever is bo unpatriotic that It Is pro-Hun. Service means what is done for another, not for self. The government has lately defined useless occupations in estimating the number of men available for military purposes. Therefore it seems a proper time for individuals to weigh the value of their jobs to their country.

Democracy recognises no difference between big and little wock, provided It is necessary work. IMPORTANT WORK NOW Whoever thinks it more aristocratic to handle dollars than to handle potatoes has a false idea of the relative importance of the two occupations. Humanity could survive without dollars, it could Invent some other way of exchanging property, but humanity cannot survive without food. Whoever thinks it finer to work with his brain than with his hands has not learned the biggest lesson of the war. Democracy finds that it can get along very weU without the precious old refinements of life like highbrow literature and "period" furniture, but It will perish from the surface of the earth without the work of hands doing mechanical things, strong hands digging trenches, building ships, firing guns and harvesting crops.

Salary Is not the test of a job's Importance, Useless servants waiting on useless women are undemocratic, no matter what the rich employer can afford to pay. The old man Mortgages Cow to See Soldier Son; Then He's Arrested Benjamin Erdman, R. R. 5, is being held until an offlcer comes from Camp Sherman to take him back there to face charges of having overstayed his leave of absence. But Benjamin is happy, and doesn't think the guardhouse will seem so dreary when he thinks of the hap-.

piness he gave his mother. Mrs. Erdman, the mother, mortgaged a cow for $30 to pay her soldier-son's fare home. He was only able to get leave from Sunday night until Monday night. And when the time to leave "I just couldnt he explained to Riding Bailiff Sehlaeger, who arrested him.

"Mother wanted to see me, and I just couldnt leave so soon. I had intended leaving tonight." Erdman was asleep in the bed which had been carefully fixed for him by his mother, when he was placed under arrest. But his mother didn't know what was wrong then. "I didnt have the heart to tell her," Sehlaeger, who has two sons in service, one already in France, said, "I just said that they wanted Ben at court.

Democracy of Woman For Woman, Need BY CYNTHLSl GREY Democracy is a handy thing to have in the national family, but some persons have got to learn how to use It. The majority of men know how. Business promotes de- mocrary. One man's success depends upon the good will of oth er men. The army promotes it.

A man's life may depend upon the voluntary cooperation of other men. But many women have still to learn what democracy is and how to use it. And now that they must undertake the work of men, it is time for them to adopt the democratic spirit of the men whom they replace.
