SYMPATHY
It's one of the big words
and often so difficult to ex
press. But flowers always do
it and It's such an easy way
to send a correct word of
cheer to the home of bereave
ment. Just telephone us and
we'll do the rest.

THERE is a great deal of j
neglect shown towards
children's and young folks'
eyes. This is due to the prev
alent opinion that young eyes
are strong. Then the defect
that exists is constantly getting
larger and when at last the
eyes are ailing noticeably peo- !
pie become scared and try to
have them cured right off
hand. It is a mistake to neg
lect young eyes. Have them
examined by a reliable optom
etrist and be on the safe side.

Britain Is Revengeful
For German Atrocities
While Asking For Peace
London, Oct. 14.—Unconditional
surrender Is rapidly gaining popu
larity with the average citizen as a
response to th° Gorman document,
and many would not bo satisfied with
anything less.
This feeling is accentuated by the
German attempt to destroy Cambrai
and the razing of villages by the
enemy In his great retreat, as well
as by sinking of the Lelnster—all
these being acts from which no mili
tary advantge could be gained.
The sinking of tho Lelnster gave
[a stunning blow to whatever feeling
existed in England for a peace of
reconcilliation. The affair caused
more ihdlgnation than any subma
rine exploit since the sinking of the
Lusltania. The contrast between
Prince Max's benevolent utterances
and Germany's day by day military
and naval policies is the text for
most of the newspaper sermons on
the situation.
