One of the leading business men of
the country who was called to Wash-
ington to devote Ills time and energy
lo the supreme work of helping the
Uovcrn ut to win the war, recently
paid a brief visit to his home ulty.
Among other things, ho was asked to
define the duty of those who are not
fit for military service, but who ar«
most anxious to co operate to the ful-
lest possible extent with the govern-
ment.
Ills answer was brief and lo the
point "Slay at homo and work
hard."
Then In a world of good hard com-
mon Sense in those lew words. They
mean that every patriotic Auiciioun
must determine to devote Ills full en-
ergy towards rendering to the tlov-
crnuicnt the greatest possible meas-
ure oi service in whatever particular'
sphen lie Is best fitted to serve.
It Iiiay lioV seem a very romantic
proceeding for n man to stay on his
farm or al Ills desk or in Ills store or
when \ it Ills duties cull him, day af-
ter rln>, and keep on working steadi-

ing taken of his efforts, lie wears no

According to an order Issued
by the officer In charge, in future
civilians will not be allowed on the
aviation landing Held just north of the
city. About twelve planes landed
there recently and it was said
that one person narrowly escaped In-
Jury from one of the planes as It came
down.
The aviators are all a line bunch
of fellows and of course would not
intentionally hurt anyone; hut es-
pecially in making a landing the
plane cannot bo controlled as to tli-
icelion after it strikes the ground
and notwithstanding the precaution
i xi rclsed somebody might receive
serious injury.
Vlistors are requested to n main
outside the Held and therefore avoid
the possibility of sustaining injury.
A number of visitors 'were present
and tlie lieutenant m charge of tlie
Held also made the rc<(iicst that pi o-
pie phase not park their cars iu the.
road along the Held from the north
cud lo the south end of tin .-He used
