V Q When it conies to a question of trusting Yourself to the risks of the road, When the thing is the sharing of burdens, The lifting in heft of a load, 'Tis the average man and no other Who does his plain duty each day, , The small things his wage is for doing, On the commonplace bit of the way. j In the hours of peril and trial, In the hour you meet as you can, "r You may safely depend on the'wisdom j And skill of the average man. 'Tis the average man, may God bless j him, Who pilots us still in the van, 1 Over land, over sea, as we travel, Just the plain, hardy, average man. So on through the days of existence, All mingling, in shadow or shine, We may count on the every day hero, J Whom haply the gods may divine. ^ But who wears the swarth grime of his calling, ^ And labors and earns as he can, But stands at the last with the j noblest, The common place average man. THE SUGAR QUESTION 1 IN GREAT BRITAIN I London, May 1.?(Correspondence J of the Associated Press).?In a report 1 <on the sugar supply question in Great r Britain, Professor George Marineau s of the University of Ixmdon, urges the 8 British government to learn from Ger- : manj and the United States which he F describes as "the two countries which * have handled the sugar question most 8 successfully." Speaking of Germany's p success with sugar in the past decade, * he says: "There are two causes at the bottom of this mystery. Energy, ^ ability, efficiency, and, rrtore than all, ^ persistent research, constituted the ' first and best cause. But this was suj>- ? j, plemented by a stifnulus designed to ^ induce capitalists to risk their money 5 in the beet root industry. "It was Germany that hit upon the right kind of stimulus. It was a bril, liant idea and carried out with great [ judgment. The sugar duty wfes levied, ^ not upon the sugar produced, but the rn/ifc TViio of onoa of, m nlaf ofl f fin ^ farmer to produce the richest possible , quality of root, and the manufacturer i to extract from the root the largest r possible quantity of sugar. Great pains were taken to brood an improved ^ , variety of sugar beet. "This research still goes on in Ger. many and its success has been astounding. At the beginning the sugar beet contained less than 6 per ; cent of sugar. In Germany the average quantity of sugar actually ex- j tracted has been brought up to practically 18 per cent. "That this wnnrlprf 111 rpsnlt wns caused by the stimulus, plus of course great efficiency, is proved by the fact that poor France continued getting a C> per cent yield until it adopted the Germ an system, and even then never succeeded in catching up in the race. That is the worst of being too late. , In industry it is fatal. "In the United States, says Professor Martineau, the industry has 1 been so carefully fostered that the j production has increased many-fold, i 'If America had not created this great ( increase in production," he explains, ( "we should at the present moment be suffering?and so would America? . from a real sugar famine. ( "In 1915 the consumption of sugar ^ in me unnea states amounted to tne large figure of 4,250,000 tons, every ounce of which, with the purely accidental exception of 23,000 ton?, came from her own states, territories and proctoetorates. This striking fact is ? entirely the result of giving a preference, The United States, so far as sugar is concerned, is now entirely ? independent of the outside world, and j is even able to spare us a million ? whenever we are short of supplies."

It seems that the Germans interned at Hot Springs instituted a boycott against Anthony Brothers of this city because the firm was a bit strong aganst the kaiser. The same boycott , could have easily been instituted against the meat packing houses and I the grocery establishments.
