Uncle Dan arrived In due time and Billie watched for an opportunity. It came that evening after dinner when Uncle Dun bud lighted a cigar and taken a seat tin the porch. ‘Tm mighty glad yon came, Unclfe Dan. ‘ I w ant to talk to you^abont the w ar. We have just put military train ing in our township high school, but we had a hard time tts do it. The Joneses and the Greggs objected. They said the war,wouldn't come over here. Grandma Junes said: ‘They ain’t no u«e to worrit, it will soon blow over.’ Well. We put the training in Just the same.

Unless? we can Ip-ht the suhmnritv.x. they nary pre vent us from t-effliig enough food th ■ allies to keep them going. In that case Germany would win. As matters stand today, our greatest heed is trained men.

As it was. j had i)o respect for us. and now we are in it and must go through with It. But never again must we he caught so wholly unprepared. “There i* only one «afe way." said jTncIe Dan.
