Case After Case

Scores of Bastrop People can
teil you about Doan's Kidney
fills. Many a happy citizen
makes a public statement of his '
experience. Here is a case of it.
What better proof of merit can
fee had than such endorsement?
Mrs. a. Kreidel, Depot street,
Bastrop, Texas, nays: "I was
troubled by a sort of inflamn.a
lion of the bladder, which was
very painful. J fejt weak when

COMMENCEMENT V'AR THEME.
Discussions of War Purpose to Stir Up Martial Spirit Urged,
By Lsagua to Enforce Peace,
America's purpose in the war—a lasting worid peace,
how to get it and how to kuep it, will be the theme of es-
says and orations in thousands of schools and colleges
this June. The subject under three different titles has a
prominent place in th list of topics for discussion at
Commencement exercises recently issued by Franklin h.
Lane, Secretary of the Intsrior.
Mr. Paul 1). Page, County Chairman, Bastrop County
branch of the League to Enforce Peace, said today that
the National headquarters of the League, at70Fifth Ave.,
New York, had prepared material which will be mailed
upoo request to students wishing to write upon any of the
following subjects in Secretary Lane's list:
"League to Enforce Peace."
"Preparation for Peace at close of the War."
"International League Peace."
The members of the league, he declared, are striving
with the approval of the Administration, to emphasize the
high purpose of the war as defined by President Wilson,
in the belief that this is the best way to stir up martial
spirit which must be the basis of all effective preparation.
The League it is unnecessary to point out, is not a paci-
fist body. It advocates war until the world, in the words
of President Wilson, is made 'safe for Democracy."
Former President William H. Taft is its head.
