We don’t stand by and cheer them as they go to their most essential war work. There is no mar- tial music to quicken their.steps and no medals of honor. for them. But. danger is ever present , and death lurks near them. It is only when we count the dead and wounded at such disasters as that of the T. N. T. plant at Split Rock, N. Y:, that we come to realize the sacrifices these brave men and women make, and the risks. they run.

There can be but one explanation of. such in- fernal and prima facie falsification: Germany has : been convinced that she:has gone one step too far, in brutality and ruthlessness. Possibly the Prussian war lords are beginning td fear the-effect of‘such atrocities on public opin- ion at’ home. Killing doctors and nurses is a.game two-can play at.. .While it’is extremely unlikely that the allies’ reprisals’ will take this inhuman form, the German mind can conceive of no reason why the allies. shouldn't commit the’ same crimes ‘There is no: weak defense of the sinking-of thi Llandovery Castle such as’Germany: offered’ for the Lusitania crime.. There is only blind, obstin- ate denial in the face of facts. ;The-Huns.can make “their own people’ believe in ‘their denials—they will believe anything the kaiser tells them. i That's why the Germans call themselves “Mi- chels”—in plain English, BOOBS. their own people do.
