Since the I’nlled States entered the

have volunteered their services to the
Government Some volunteered
their services in the Navy anj some
In various civil employments In

a higher p rniage (If any can be
shown so high) as that of the press
of the Nation The large city dsill-
tremendoua circula-
tions and the small local weeklies
that penetrate into the humblest hom-
es of the dwellers In villages and on
ranut alike have devoted their tal-
ents energies and space to their
Government
The loyal foreign-language papers
hsve been as generously patriotic as
the others and have preached Ameri-
canism and duty In thirty-slg differ-
ent languages
In the Second Liberty Loan cam-
paign aa in the first the newspapers
of the g-ountry have shown their un-
selfish patriotism and the splendid
results In each campaign are In a
great measure evidence of their pow-
er and Influence
Many millions of American news-
paper readers are now bondholders of
their Government a great number
made so through the Influence of the
newspapers they read They ars In-
terested personal way in govern-
mental matters and especially In the
finances of their Government
In addition there are to be other
Issues of Government bonds These
bond Issues are not going to be sold
entirely through patriotism and en-
thusiasm Emotion alone will not
suffice to Induce the American peo-
ple to absorb these tremendous bond
Issues The Judgment of the Na-

it ted for wheat bread On Wednes-
day Osh poultry beans or agga are
to be substituted for beef pork and
bacon Honey syrups and the like

ble for so$ar
It this policy Is followed by tha 21-
000000 families In this country the
soldiers will be properly fed war
prices will not become prohibitive and
America sill bar th last ounce of
