War Wounded Give Concert in Berlin Amsterdam, March 1.-To show the latest triumps of surgical healing, a remarkable concert has been given in Berlin. All the "war-damaged" performers were professional artists. There were pianists who had been cured of pal- sied arms and frozen hands; violin- ists bereft of fingers and others who had been made deaf by explosions. There was an organist who worked the pedals although he had his ankles smashed, and there were singeis who had been shot through the lungs. Ac- cording to reports, the performance was a success from a musical critic's standpoint. Th E EBERBACH & SON COMPANY 200-204 E.

State St. (By tEdward Miolt .Woclley, Author and Writer) The crucial test of patriotism is willingness to sacrifice one's own in- terests for the good of the country. It is easy enough to be patriotic when one has something to gain by it. If patriotism makes one's business grow, it is no trouble at all to wave a flag and pose as a latriot; but when the nation calls for a sacrifice of business and profits, the test is severe. I have recently been connected with a campaign to raise money for the War Camp Community fund. I have also been associated with Red Cr'r and Liberty Loan campaigns. In all of these activities I have had occa- sion to study the attitude of mnany peo- ple who ostensibly were patriotic and yet were unwilling to make any sac- rifices. When analyzed, their patiiot- ism seemed to lie almost altogether in talk. On one occasion it was necessary to enlist tlhe services of quite a num- ber of men in making'-a house-to- house canvass, and I was astonished at the unwillingness I encountered on the part of men who had no valid excuse for refusing to do this wirk. Fully two-thirds of those who were requested to take certain districts and canvass them, in this patriotic ser- vice for our country, refused. When pressed for reasons they could sim- ply say they were too busy, that they were not trained in this sort of.work, or that it was displeasing to them. The result was that a comparatively small number of men shouldered the' job and put it through. These men sacrificed their time, comfort, and sometimes expense money. For sev- eral weeks they worked at least part of the day ' and almost every evening. In the course of this canvass they had occasion to call at the homes of the very men who had refused to help, and sometimes they found these men idling away. the evening in comfort. In numerous instances people mad e promises apparently with no intention of keeping them. Somne of them prom- ised to report by telephone and name the amount of their subscriptions, but they were never heard from. What we need especially in this country toda its a great a wakenrinrg on the part of the people to the fact that we are at war, and that our situation is serious. We need real patriots, not bogus ones. It ought to be comparatively easy to put through the various campaigns necessary to raise the money the government needs and it would be easy if the people themselves would take hold. And ,yfter all, these sacrifices we Extension.Le-c-ures Prof. W. A. Frayer will lecture tomor- row night in Addison on "Dewocracy vs. Autocracy." Dr. A. S.
