GOOD HEALTH IS A PATRIOTIC
DUTY
l
Literally, thU to eperiod when no
one ahould hire time to be sick. Ev-
ory min, woman and child In Ameri

bcataervea the common welfare. Slck-

waste, and waste in National efficien

The time will come when it will be
little lea than a disgrace to have such
diseases as typhoid and malaria be
cause they arep reventble, and every
time there is a case of either the plain
fact 1s that someone has been care
less—almost criminally careless—
with one of our greatest of all posses
sions—human health.
All our thousands of deaths, tens
of thousands cases of serious illness
and million of dollars in losses from
doctors’, nursing and drug bills be
cause of typhoid and malaria are
avoidable, and the way to avoid them
to to screen out flies and mosquitoes.
When these pests are screened out—
{when we keep flies away from our
I food and drink, and mosquitoes from
'biting us—we will have prevented
probably 90 per eent of all the sick
ness and Inefficiency due to typhoid
and malaria# *
Whatever It may cost, good health
to worth the price; whatever adequate
screening of all doqra and windows
may cost, the Investment will pay a
thousand per eent and more-
And what is true of typhoid and
malaria Is also true of our prevent
able minor ailments. \ Indigestion

properly prepared foods, to heavily

We can’t afford to be sick at this
critical time; least of all can we af

disease. Screen up, clean up, keep

PLANS MADE FORI
FOURTH LOAN DRIVE
FORD & CALHOUN
Washington.—Plana for advertis
ing the fourth Liberty loan have been
completed. .This waa accomplished at
a meeting of federal reserve district
executives and publicity chairmen
held in this city a few days ago.
What was probably the most im
portant decision arrived at in this
meeting, and the greatest forward
step taken in connection with the
sale of Liberty bonds, waa the decis
ion to place every country daily and
weekly newspaper publisher in the
nation on the publicity-committees of
the counties or towns.
This means a general recognition
of the value of the country press to
the nation. It means giving to the
country press thecredit to which
these newspapers have been entitled.
It means that the publishers will now
have a voice in theplans for adver
tising Liberty bonds in their commu
nities.
The executive and publicity chair
men of the twelve districts are to be
congratulated on their action in this
matter.
Elaborate plans were made for n
much greater newspaper advertising
campaign than has been known in
any of the previous sales. An excel
lent line of newspaper advertising
copy is being prepared, and It is ex
pected that every daily and weekly
newspaper in America will carry some
of this just previous to and during the
sales campaign. The local publicity
committees are instructed to uhder-
wirte this advertising for each paper
in their Held, and the publishers be
ing bn these publicity' committees,
will be able either to assist in under
writing this advertiseinfr or to advise
as to how it can best be done. This
means as near practical insurance ns
it to possible to get that all papers
will participate in theadvertising cam
paign.
At .this meeting of district execu
tives and publicity chairmen a strong
presentation of thee ollective power
and influence of thee ountry press
was made, and the truth of the state
ments made was instantly appreciat
ed by thosep resent ' Thedecision to
place all daily and weekly newspaper
publishers on the publicity commit
tees was made without any opposi
tion.
In addition to the plans for the
display advortisng campaign there
were worked out at this meeting the
details of a plan for assisting the
country papers to present to their
readers a number of valuable local
news stories that will be of interest
in each community, and that will also
assist materially in arousing and'
maintaining interest in each local
campaign and aid in the sale of bonds.
The nation has a big, but not im
possible task in the floating of this
next Liberty loan. It will be for the
largest amount the government has
ever asked at one time, and It must
'come from all classes of people and
communities. With the country press
back of it, as tho government has
been assured it will be back df it,
there can be no quostion of the results
in the communities served by these
papers. It is the editor’s opportunity
for doing his.‘‘bit” and for receiving
recognition for doing it
From now until the end of the
next Liberty loan drive there will be
unusually important mail coming to
every publisher’s desk from the treas
ury department at Washington, and

STRANGE LAWS IN TURKEY
Penalty for Threatening Heavier Than
If You Had Struck—Lawyer
Defend* Idea.
In Turkey, If you atole a horse It
entailed from one to three years' Im
prisonment; If you stole a sheep you
were liable to from three to seven
years. While you are figuring at this
I wilt give you another Inatance of
subtle jurisprudence, John Van Ess
writes In Asia. If I drew a dagger
on you and stabbed you seriously, but
you recovered, I was liable to prison
from one to three years. If v on the
other hand, I drew a dagger'on you
hut did not touch you I might be lm.
prisoned anywhere from three to seven
years.
Ynsnf Effendl, a leading lawyer, was
much disgusted with my obtuseness
when I questioned the eqnltableness of
these penalties.
“Why,” said he, “It Is ns plain as
day. It you go to steal a horse the
supposition to you purpose to escape
on the horse’s back, but If you go to
steal a sheep, Inasmuch as you In the
nature of the case cannot ride away
on the sheep's back. It Is fair to sup
pose tbnt you come armed and ready
to resist. Therefore, If yon steal a
sheep yon are the more gnllty. In In
tent at least,
penalty. And
ger on you and though I wound you
seriously, yet you do not die. the result
Is known—namely, bodily Injury. Bnt
If I draw a dagger on yon, even though
I do not touch you, yet I might have
killed you,, and therefore I alio la that
case deserve the greater penalty.” t
