WHEN A TEAR MEANS SOMETHING
There were several little quiet scenes at the dock yes
terday afternoon when the Nortwestern pulled out into
the stream. During these scenes tears were noticed drop
ping, just little drops of pent-up meanings that meant—
oh. so much. And it was a time when tears caused no
shame, in fact they were a homage to those boys going
away—to France. We all hope that they will come back
to us. in the same great spirit as they went. But perhaps
some will not, for the wavs of war are manv. But the
tears remembered by the one it was dropped for. In the
camp, perhaps a trifle homesick, that tear will be remem
bered. Going "over there," it will be remembered and
those fond recollections of those shedding it will be felt.
On the battlefield, in the trench, when the mind comes
back home, the tear will be remembered, shed by the one
who cares, perhaps more than cares. So the tear dropped
yesterday was a tear not to he regretted, it was an honor.
The third Liberty loan will open on April 6th, the first

Von Hertling agress with I’resident Wilson on every

One month following the opening of the third Liberty
loan, a campaign to raise .$100,000,000, will be launched by
the American lied Cross. It is said that to date practic
ally $87,000,000 of the first $100,000,000 fund has been ap
propriated.
Bertrand Russell, noted British pacifist, gets six

Sending out a cry for workmen, the B. & O. offers $2

NAVY NOW EXPLAININ'
• «■■■»
PHILADELPHIA, Pa., March i4.—
Prohibition came to the United States
Navy because a young officer who had
never tasted liquor before entering
the Navy became drunk and was
court-martailed, according to Mrs.
Josephus Daniels, wife of the Secre
tary of the Navy.
• A young officer was court-martail
td and reduced scveial points for in
toxication” Mrs. Daniels explained
at a recent reception tendered to 250
officers of the Navy. “His uncle, a
friend, bitteily upbi aided my husband
.*bout his continuation of the court
martail, declaring that the officer had
never touched liquor until he entered
the Navy and that the Navy was en
tirely responsible through its official
»ife for his insobriety. My husband
at once issued an order forbidding all
intoxicants to men of the Navy.
‘“If this action will save one young
man from becoming a drunkard it will
be worth all the criticism that will
come to me from this act/ my hus
band said.”
