The war department's appeal to
American citizens to turn recruiting
sergeants and fill up tho gaps in the
regular army is based on tin.' sound-
est kind of patriotism, it Ik an ap-
peal directed at each individual and
as obligatory in adherence as though
the call for«uctual service was made.
It suggests the country's respond-
to Lincoln, meinoralixod for all time
in the sentence "We art* coming
Father Abraham. One Hundred Thou-
sand Strong." and it ought Jo have an
equally enthusiastic acceptance now
There has been much said and writ-
ten and sung or "preparedness." As
the war department's appeal read-
those who are really interested in
preparedness "can render no more
effective service than by using their
utmost influence to recruit the regu-
lar army to the strength authorized
by law."
Why shouldn't the country do this?
The army Is not an ajuusoment en-
terprise. It Is organized to protect
us. It is maintained to defend our
country ami its interests. Why
shouldn't therefore, every individual.
who enjoys this protection and this
defense do the very little now asked
01 him and her. If not in the interest
of the nation, theu in the selfish in-
terest of himself or herself?
It was a misfortune because it was
an insult, to regard at one time, the
army as a service unbecoming a man.
Thanks be, that perversion of public
opinion has been cured. The army.
military service, not f'^M the view-
point of the ogrd or the brute, but
from the viowpoiut of the trained man.
tho physical culturist. the patriot, has
become a highly respectable and high-
ly patriotic service, which, in the
course of time may be. no man may
ignore unless he be crippled or In-
hibited by religion.
That being so. none need hesitate
to recommend the service to a young
man whose circumstances will per-
mit enlistment. The army, like the! fVl • ,

to keep him there till he recovers. As
soon as the police commissioner sus-
pects that the robbery was committed j
by Chick's pal. he begins badgering |
Chick. Molly, the wounded niau'>,
sweetheart, and every one likely to
give information leading to the re- J
covery of the collar. After the grill-,
ing is over, Chick and Molly return to|
their flat and find that the wounded ■
man has died while they were out. As j
they are arranging plans for the,
secret disposal of the body. Molly's!
brother a morphine fiend, betrays the
fact that he took the diamond collar
from the wounded crook while help-j
ing him into the house. Chick and
Molly now find themselves in such a
desperate situation that they almost)
despair of making the police believe
they had nothing to do with the rob
hery. When they are on tho point of'
going to the district attorney s oiflcc
to hand over the necklace and clear
themselves of any suspicion, in walks
a Central Office detective.
This man promises to let off every-.
one connected with tho case If the;
collar is only found and then, when I
( hick hands it to him, he turns and
announces that both Chick and Molly
are under arrest for the robbery. This
is such an ungrateful return that
Chick declares he will never loave the
Imuse wilh t 1m- dtttSCtiVS. A tight
takes place. Chick and Molly over-
power the Central Office man and
make their escape, only to be cap-
tured within a few hours and anrain
hauled up before the police. How they
begin their lire anew roakos the hap-
py ending for which everyone is look-
ing.
HOW HE HIT.
After the battle of Mons on officer
congratulated an Irishman on his
conspicuous bravery under fire.
"Well, Pat." he said, "how did you
feel during the engagement?"
"Feel, captain." answered Pat. "I
ielt as if ivvery hair on me head was
a band of music, and they were all
playing 'Home. Sweet Home.'"

C.opd news bears repeating, and
when it is confirmed after a long
ap.se of time, even if we hesitated to
believe it at first hearing, we feel se-
ure In accepting truth now. The
following experience of a Shawnee
woman is confirmed after one year.

When you have to crank your motor in a driving
rain or blizzard, or when your car utails on the
crowded street—fchen's when you long for an A-B-C
Starter on your Ford. And you especially long for it when
your motor back-fires and the hand-crank registers a broken wrist.
We never have trouble proving that the A-M-C System
is the best starting and lighting system for 1\ rds. It is
the ONLY true, genuine two-unit starting and ti(jhtiig
