The smaUer the automobile, the more penants it carries. There are penants for summer resorts, towns, hotels, colleges, and cigarettes. Pen- nants are nice felt things, with fancy letters, which after some deciphering make out the name of a town or col- lege or brand of tobacco. All motion pictures of college sub- jects show penants. A student's room is' not complete without one or two. A real hangout has a mandolin and half dozen felt banners which make a fine setting for a drinking scene. You can almost hear them elng. "Drink 'er down" and "rah. ran for any old university." It baa atutos phere, enough of it fur a gale BOOKS ARE EAR MARKo Books are as tell-tale as a i.,--. friends. What do you read? Are your tastes catholic, taking Bu*uard Shaw along with Jack London, and Henry James as a trotting partner with George Barr McCutcheon? Are you just narrow, and reading jttie sporting page In a daily newspaper? The average lot of Wilmette readers patronize the library generously and are hot at all one tracked In their reading habits, The report of the ii brarian, printed last week, shows a ii'healthy state of public mind in rega.d to books. The library Is really more useful than merely an object to show KjOff to friends who visit the town. Its IT not aa full of books as it might be. or as the library board would like, but It gains somb each year, and what's -' more, ft gains Interest. BjPhe children are well .. «r« <* ?wwhich is a good sign. Training the child; etc.. Is a well-worn and frayed adage, but in matters of reading a carefully selected list of t>ook». pat within-the reach of all children, en- courages healthy thoughts and high ideals. Boys who run off u» be -train robbers and wild west bad man, do so because they sneak orf wnn a pack- age of tobacco and a thrilling novel. Wilmette should expand the chest an inch on the progress of the library. WAR BABIES. Nearly everyone Is interested In babies, generally or specifically, and this interest is extended to the "war babies" of Europe. Many Americans have felt so deep a sympathy for the Belgian babies made fatherless by the cruelties of war that they were willing, even anxious, to open their hearts and homes to them. But the babies have mothers, and the state has need of babies, and so the "adopt a war orphan" movement died a sud- den, if not untimely, death. It is not these fatherless war babies which is giving the people of Europe concern Just now. They suffer, per- haps, but the war will end, and with tlie end will . come surcease of physical Ills, and children's memories aro blessedly short. It is quito a different sort of war baby which is distressing the good people of Europe, the baby, father- less, but not made fatherless by death. It is the question of the illegitimate baby and its girl mother which is troubling wise and, in this single instance, would be generous hearts The birth of children is the niont Important need of the state The women who nave uouo thi« bene fit to the felalO dcuiuud SOIno oliow of ^ibiltuao. which, lu tl.o oi'liuuti of rn..ny. ehould take tilt, foi in Of lioll- r ..cognition of the. l.-cfcuh.rlt, of the clrcUhiota4ii.ce fhc-^o are, aa the^ might have c.^ceteJ wetting trout,ic. for the . llluous ». ,/tuan Is jealous of her .irtue. ana loath to fchui-c It j reward with those »vlio h«ve wiciifitod the i>icclou.4 pctui of their "'OSilUllilOvsd In thlo rte.^.a ,, ., i,,.„ i, . t. ,„a t> nil jut ^ixyu.

Describing MItau, reported to be the latest objective of the Germans Baltic campaign, today's war primer of the National Geographic society says: "Mitau, the capital of the govern- ment of Courland, is 110 miles from the port city, Libau. said to have been captured recently by the Germans, and about S85 milea by rail southwest of Petrograd. It to a great distributing point for the import trade of'Libau and Riga, as well aa a point of assem- bly for the export commerce of these porta. It is situated on the river Aa, In a fertile plain, more than 110 miles northeast from (he German frontier of East Prussia. It was the capital city of a famous Duchess of Courland, who became Empress of Russia in 1762, bringing bar Duchy under the two-headed eagle of Russia, and who lives In history as Catherine.- the Great.* Seat of Learning. "For more than seven centuries, Mitau has been a seat of aristocracy and learning. Some 300 years ago, when Courland had some Importance in the councils of Europe, and. pos- sessed distant tracts in Africa and other foreign colonics, Mitau was a cosmopolitan gathering point for scholar and artist and patrician; and the plan of the city then developed provided for future dignity and great- ness, streets being laid out broad and straight, ample" provision made for parks' and promenades, and the secur- ity of this ducal residence assured formidable fortifications. Mitau eof the fine, subs! tial cities of the north, and the tradl- Uons of its heyday are persistently upheld !n ill many educational Insti- tutions. Large Manufacturing Plants. "Mitau has a growing Industry. Its leading manufactures are Iron prod- ucts, linen, soap, wax-cloth. Ink and flour. Its trade in grain and lumber is very large, these products being as- sembled at Mitau from the interior governments, and then sent to the Baltic ports. As throughout the Baltic provinces, a large percentage of the people of Mitau are of German descent, and the German language was heard with greater frequency upon Its streets before the war than waa the Russian tongue. Mitau counts some 40,000 people, mostly Germans, Letts and jews, with but a alight sprinkling of Russians. It is supposed to have been founded by the Brethren of the Sword in 1966, becoming a part of Rus- sia In 1795." _____________ OBITUARY.

There are many ways of showing patriotism, and the easiest are the moat conspicuous. Flag waving and eagle- screaming oratory satisfy the en- tuusfaem of the performer without, however, inspiring in the least the one who looks on. Real patriotism ia a willingness to aacrWee oneself, to suffer. If need be. far one's country. It would be an ex- it lllurtt bu aunt leu »r» ;tly iirac.lcal way. tluc <-.,icif;t-n<:y iu ho nut? bhall 1. not i,e met «iri,er<»b and t.aukl> 1 tboio ftil. shall It not he .act with j d<;tc«mln.ition. what evtr hni»|i<»it to treat the ir.jilicra considerately aenuy. adequately?

The advice is strangely aaue and wise, applicable to the "one present duty" as to that which we bare always with us. Weak and erring mothers and selfish and irresponsible fathers are by no means limited to war times. A belief in civilization and t practice of the "religions which we profess" necessitate always that there be a disposition to "help, cheer, encourage and sustain." The present need is greater only in numbers. The individual case remains the same. Bsptlst Church. Rev. B. Frank Taber, pastor. Resi- dence, 910 Forest avenue.
