1'RE 131 itish Empire a ale t v Ire rap c that cry
baneck this day will do his duty and the
More pronlptly It is done the better it
counts.
Nuw would be a good time to settle
the ion existing Irish question while
public thought and action is drawn to
Hue Empire's continuance and unity
.'.•GIVE us this day our daily bread" is a
prayer, we have no doubt, ,that is offered
many a time each day by the hungry
people in Europa on account ot the hor-
rors of war,
Two Brillion British soldiers now in
France represents a host that wily"have
to be reckoned with in the near future.
It constitutes the largest army that ever
fonght under the flag of the Empire,
We are not guessing when we say that
the gal taut lads from this Dominion will
be es ready to do their duty as the most
heroic.
SURELY there must be something
wrong with the Kaiser's head when he
tenders thanks to the men on the sub-
marines for their wanton disregard of
human life in sending thousands of non-
combatants to a watery grave without
warning and even firing on the life boats
in which they were seeking to make the
laud.
PRet1AftLITJE4 look as if on the com-
pletion of this great European war that
Conslautiuople will be deeded to the
Cam, that Alsace and Lorraine, former-
ly belonging to France, will return to
their first love, and Italy will secure
Trieste. The dream of Germany as a
conqueror of the world will likely end in
a hideous nightmare. It is a terrible
price to pay to please the ambition of a
man seeking world dominition.
FROM an article in the Week'y Sun
we observe that 3 Napanee banks in 3
days paid out the almost uublleavible
sum of $35,oOo for dressed poultry and
was about the same amount as 3 years
ago when nearly double the quantity
was secured. The poulrry industry on
the farm is no longer "the provider of
pin money for the Missus". but an in-
tegral part of the profit making of the
farm. Ittoo,000 worth of dressed poul
try was marketed in 5996 in Lennox and
Addington Counties. This is soms.thing
worth crowing about.
Ir is a good thing to have a hobby—
something in the character of a specialty
that we can do a little better than any
body else. The more helpful it is to the
human family the larger the circum•
fereoce of the possible service will be.
What is your special forte 7 You say,
perhaps, you are possessed of no out-
standing qualify but perhaps if you think
quietly over the matter you have a
special talent— maybe dormant— that
would mean much if it were employed
in wholehearted performances of deeds
and words. No time ever afforded bet-
ter opportunities than 1917. Get busy
and polish -up your talent.
DID you fill out your National Service
registration card yet 7 Probabilities are
those who refuse or neglect to do so may
be asked with more emphasis at a near-
by date why the information was not
given. If it is counted as an act calcu-
lated to help the Empire then those who
attempt to dodge the simple duty are
recreant to their trust and are abetting
the enemy instead of fortifying the
Motherland. The victory will only be
assured as we do our individual part
conscientiously and fearlessly. It is not
always possible to shoulder your
responsibility on another. A hero is a
man who does his full duty.
A NOTICEABLE feature of the Municipal
Elections this year was the number of
instances in which men, for one reason
and another, declined to accept the
honors offered, necessitating new uomi-
netions after the Statuary meeting of
the Councils. 'If the law were changed
making it obligatory that the consent ot
the nominee be given the unnecessary
expense and the unsettling of people for
a longer period than usual would be
obviated, A few men ate sometimes too
keen to get into office but there is a
mucb larger number who are too telnct-
antto do their part in adding their
quota to the conduct of public business.
A unln a of cities are appointing;
women on the police force as well as to
the Magistrate's bench. For Juvenile
Courts, possibly, the gentleuess and at
tractiveness of womankind would tend
to give them a bold on the erring not so
easily secured by the more stern, if not
harsh, interpretation of the taw to the
Culprits, Municipalities are increasing
the quota of females on School Boatds
and the mission of the Lair sex In con-
nection with the expansion of the church
and Sunday School was never more
manifest than to -day. All of these
things point to the growth of me equal-
ity of tile sexes end ie a token of good.

THERE was a falling aft ail] lynch

so-called unlucky Dumber of 33 as com-
pared with 1995 Record for 1916 was
e4, 50 of whom were black men. We
are not prepared to lay whether the re-
duction represents a better moral tone
or not, possibly the banging without a
legal trial may be deterring to some ex-
tent the committal of crimes for which
the penalty has so frequently been enact-
ed. It's bed business, botb as to trans-
gressions and the transgressors and does
not reflect a very high degree in the
observance of law and order. The
lynchers often appear to escape even a
searching enquiry,
ANNUAL Convention of .the Ontario
Association ot Fairs and Exbieltioas will
be held is 'Toronto on February 6 and 7.
Such a gathering of men interested in a
common cause should be more produc•
tive of good results° than it is. If all
long harangers, improperly designated
as addlesses, were cut out and a couple
of experts brought who could shedil-
lumivation on the various phases of up.

be accomplished. Question drawer well

If the rate were only increased on the
absentees from the Annual meeting we
predict there would be the major part of

hearts should not permit the shekels to
occupy the place of what is of greater
worth—the betterment of conditions for

I WILL SERVE
Composed for "National Service"
Campaign by "Patriot."
If my King and Country need me
I will serve;.
Tho' to sacrifice they lead me
I'll not swerve ;
For the sluggards sod the slackers
Are the Germans' strongest backers—
They will get what they deserve -
1 will serve.
If they want me in the treocbes
I will serve ;
'Mid the shrapnel and the stenches
I will serve ;
For my Country and my King
I will suffer auytbing
All my service they deserve,
I will serve.
I'tt not loaf while others toil,
I will serve ;
Can I plan the foe to foil 1
I will serve,
Power of muscle and of brain
Surety will the victory gain—
With more vigor, vita and nerve
I will serve.
None shall ever charge that I
Did not serve ;
None shall taunt with "You're the guy
Would not serve 1"
When a wounded mac I meet
Limping down the busy street
He'll not hint, "You bad cold feet I"
I will serve.
In the mill or in the field
I will serve ;
Britons °e'er to foemen yield,
I will serve ;
If I cannot man the guns
1 can send supplies in tons—
Thus to help defeat the Hues
I will serve,
In the hot munition shop
I will serve
That the war may sooner stop
I will serve;
Lest on me should rest the guilt
For a brother's life -blood spilt
Glad, I offer hind and nerve,
I wilt serve.
