Men are manning ft guns, and each night huge searchlights (right) scan the skies. The parapet "(lower left) protects the men from concussion and bomb fragments during an attack. M PaflfMsm In Praffiteer The trail of the profiteer across the country is a pafh of shame and disloyalty. As the lives of soldiers are laid on I the altar so should it be with all wealth. Conscript wealth. EDITORIALS By C. N. Linn Their Revel In Profits Will Be Short-Live- d You profiteers who are taking from 100 per cent to 2000 per cent profit, and you who draw such high salaries as has been disclosed in the senate, had better make the most of your exploiting power while you have it because it won't be long that you will be permitted to do as you are doing. We raise our voice in protest and condemnation and we hold that all wealth and all industry and all labor should be conscripted-Whe-a nat on conscripts life i should also conscript wealth. And we hold further that all who receive salaries above $2500 should have one-thir- d of it taken for war purposes, and all who receive above $10,000 should have half of it taken for go"ernment use, and 75 per cent should be taken from all who receive over 120.000. All past wars have made the rich richer and left the poor poorer And mostly the poor it has been whose sons have been done to death. It should be different in this war and all should sacrifice and suffer alike, so far as that is possible. ...

Msy God have mercy on them and the country and the people when they' begin their work of destruction. Better Help Humans With h. Men are more or less excusable for relying on material wealth in money, stocks, bonds, etc.; as secu rity against un-favorable conditions that might arise in the future. But let us advise them that right now their holdings might better be turned into channels of human welfare than to be hoarded like misers hoard their gold, because the best of securities will shortly pet ish, in the cataclvsms that lie ahead. Better let goof s me of the hoarded wealth, and help struggling humans while you have it, for when the day of destruction comes upon ' the land you will lose all m m As We See The War The war rages on many fronts. Our boys, these sterling patriots, who are out on the far-flun- g battle lines, are doing their level best. The government is doing its very best to sup-port them, and the great majority of citizens are doing their best to produce the necessities of war. But there is an el-ement on the home front as dangerous as the foreign enemy. They are going about stealthily with their daggers sheathed.

Dear Readers Say, readers, we must have a word with you, especially you who are in arrears from one to a hundred years. It is getting to be pretty hard sled-ding and the outlook is not so bright. We do not need much for ourself.but how we do need it for landlords and paper men. We must ask for at the least from one to five dollars from every regular subscriber (not relatives) who have not paid this year. Now friends, this is urgent, and we trust you'll be liberal in remembering us. Not one of you but can raise and spare a dollar any time. Pay something anything NOW! Some of you are brothers in a bond that obligates you to help a brother in need, and if you do not do it you may, as the scrip tures say, lift up your eyes in a place of torment. Honesty is honesty just as much in this office as in the temple to which you sometimes go. Give of your money while you have it because you won't haveit long, as it will shortly becomeworth less and valueless. Some of you will have to send it by mail as there will not be room in the office for all of you at once Don't delay your remittance for prociastination is the ihiif of time and may also become the thtif of our sustenance. Dollars given NOWwill keep us riding high on the whirligig of capitalism and add blessings to your life and ease to your con-science. Better remit NOW be-fore your fiiend around the cor-ner tukes to higher altitudes.

Just Browsing Around We have been about a little lately an I we are astounded by what ne have learned by wandering just a very little ways from our dust spot. First, we met a man who said this war was started by the president. This caused us to remark that we would't stand under the same roof with anyone who belie-ved that. The way he looked when he said it was awful. He should have had his picture ta';en that moment to hang in all rest rooms. Then we caine onto a company of four men be-rating England and the war effort, all of them prospering and all enjoyiti life like kings. But there was a boy among them a fine, typical American boy who spoke out, "You are fine American, you are.'- - Then we, buy proxy, came in touch with a man who denounced the president and General Mc Arthur The mood he was in is blighting his life and hurting his business. Such hatred eat? out both heart and soul. Bet-ter stand by America in her hour of fiery trial so that she will survive and stand by you throughout your lite Q CO-OPERATi- Q (This paper is for socialized and cooperative medicine and hos- - pitalization. We are for progress and a newand better system.) Cooperative hospitals took their place in the news again last week with the announcement of a new 32 room co-o- p hos-pital at Hartner, Kansas and plans for the organization of a community cooperative hospital atPrinceton, Minn. The com-munity hospital at Elk City, Oklahoma, America's pioneer co-o- hospital, now has a membership of 2,500 families. The Elk City co-o- p provides hospital service for families at $25 ' per year for four persons and $3 additional foreach person in a family. The co-o- p hospital at Hardtner, Kansas was comp-plete- d in September, 1941. It is a 32 room modern hospital serving the town of Hardtner with 4oo population and its surrounding territory. Between 2, 500 and 3, 000 persons were shown through the hospital when it opened in September At Princeton, Minnesota representatives of the s and civic organizations are making plans for a hospital to be built t a total cost of $50,000. f a In the desolation of human understanding, divine Love hears and answers the human call for help; and the voice of Truth utters the divine verities of beiDg which deliver mortals out of the depths of ignorance and vice. Mary Baker Eddy. Wake Up America The nation needs to awaken to the full gravity of the peril that confronts it. It needs to a ppreciate how badly we have been defeated in four months of war It neds to understand that it is possible for the United Nations and the United States to lose this war and suffer the fate of Francp and that that this possibility may become a probability if the present t.idn does not change. It needs to realize that there is frrave chance of the Jap-anese pushing throuoh India and the Germans driving through the Near Rat, to ji n their armies and resources in an almost unbeatable combination. It need? to get away, once and for all, from the comfort-ing feeling that while we lose at the start we are bound to win in the end. Only when fully aware of existing perils will the United States do its utmost. Pray God that awareness will not com too late, as it did in France!

Once upon a time two men journeyed to far countries to see the world The one traveled in style and thought only of him self and his own, all the time lavishing money and luxury on his family and pay- - ing no attention to the poverty and star-vatio- n all about them. The other man was deeply moved at the sight of a starv-ing child shivering before a bakery. He picked him up, fed him, clothed him, and took him with him to his mountain home j where he made of him a useful citizen. Later he did the same for 13 other orph. aned and abandoned starvlings. helping all of them to make good. And all the while the other man wallowed in his selfishness and watched greedily beside his heaps of money. Which one was the Christian?
