America could give but one answer to the peace “offers” from Germany and Austria. The only possible answer was an unequivocal NO! We cannot talk peace with the HUNS until they BEG peace, instead of offering peace; and that time will not come until they are beaten to their knees. ; Consider what a peace based on today’s situa- tion would men; a powerful Germany, balked but not beaten; thwarted in her aims of world-con- Guest, but not punished for her crimes against humanity; stopped in her plots for immediate victory, but left in the mood to prepare for an- other trial. : There can be no lasting peace under these terms; there can be no permanent peace until the criminal madmen of Berlin are made powerless to thrust the world into another orgy of war. Germany is not yet beaten, ,, She hag extended her: power over betrayed: Ruggia, an |-amnexed a score. of border provinces to the Hohenzollern chain-gang—provinces that, if left in German hands, will furnish future soldiers to carry on| Hunnish vandalisms at the pistol-pointed| order of the Prussian masters. Germany must be beaten in the field. Her arm- ies that overran France and devastated Belgium mugt be*whipped back across their border; her people must be punished, if need be, until they rise in their wrath and dethrone the crowned maniacs who led their sons and brothers to the slaughter. Some may talk of an economic war"Boycott against Germany after the war. But the boycott is a dangerous weapon as long as Germany has the power to resent it. i If we make peace with Germany now, and then decide to punish her. for future crimes by excud- ing her from free intercourse with other nations, we simply invite Germany to make war again to prepare a new war as an answer to our boycott. America wants this war to be the last war. We are fighting, in the words of President Wilson, “to make the world safe for democracy.” And the world will not be safe for democracy as long as the blood-mad Hohenzollerns are left free to plot against an extension of their despotism over half the earth. Germany knew the American answer, which is is the French answer and the British answer and the Italian answer andthe Belgian answer and the Japanese answer. Germany knew the answer .is NO; and hence her~“‘offer” was insincere. Germany “offered” peace not because she has the remotest dream that, America and our allies would accept. it, but because she hoped to strength- en the pacifists, the bolsheviks, the defeatists, the cowards and the yellow dogs in the allied na- tions, and bring about a condition in the demo- cratic countries similar to that she wrought in Russia. - And that is why every.American who even con- siders harkening now to a German peace is ery- ing “defeat”—and is AIDING THE ENEMY! ae SAVE YOUR EYES.

To prevent its spread each member of the fam- ily should have his own towel, handkerchief and wash rag. : GOOD ROADS. K Uncle Sam needs good roads more than ever before to carry on transportation. . Liberty trucks are driven from factories to sea- ports. * : Material for war work is transported between towns and cities by motor trucks ‘covering hun- dreds of miles each day. Full speed ahead .is the thought in the mind-of every man who is gétting out war material and anxious to win the war. 5 Merchants throughout the country are getting their supplies by motor trucks and in that. way relieving the railroads of every possible burden. To eliminate delays of the great truck trains there must be more GOOD ROADS.

These roads should be put in condition before they become frozen. » We must cleaz the way for transportation and eliminate costly delays. Let’s keep things moving. as __ MARCH 12. Many things may happen‘ on the same day. Qne man may be working to uplift, while another may be pulling down. One may be fighting the HUNS in the trences “over there” and another may be fighting for German in the United States. Both may be Americans.

He was preparing for the big German offensive, the one he thought would drive the British back to the’ channel. and carry the HUN standard into Paris. All the civilized, democratic, human people of the world were facing that problem of the German offensive. ran No, not all! P. P. Claxton, U. S. commissioner of education, was mobilizing himself 'and-prepar- ing for HIS drive to put the German language back into American public’ schools. 7 i On the twelfth of March. he:wrote a letter to the president of the South Dakota University. urging the restoring of German inAmerican_schools;and colleges, and protesting against ‘any further elim- ination of German from:’American high schodls. On the twelfth of March American soldiers were being killed beneath German. bayonets, and Amer-) ican soldiers were dying in the hell of shrapnel and shell from German guns. On the twelfth of March Claxton was pointing out the richness of German literature, and point¢ ing verbal medals on Lessing, Goethe, Schiller and the whole brigade of German writers. On the twelfth of March the U. S. War Depart- ment gives out this statement: “The Americans east of Luneville again raid the German positions. Going far beyond their objective they engage in hand-to-hand fighting, using their automatic pistols and rifles.” i On the twelfth of March Claxton wrote: - Ger- many may even yet become one of the leading nations for the preservation of the peace of the world.” .; Cin yKbees uy On the’ twelfth :o6!Mareh London reports that HUN airships attacked the Yorkshire coats, and killed women, children and non-combatant men, destroying dozens of homes. Paris reports an at- tack by German airfleets in which 34 persons were killed and 79 injured, mostly women and children. : G On, the twelfth of March Claxton, U. S. com- missioner of education, was writing a letter prais- ing German culture, German language, German literature, and talking of the “kinship” between the German language and‘the English. __ On the twelfth of March, Baker, U.

RELIGIOUS CARE _ ASSURED YANKS Uncle Sam wakes Partjcular Pains with Fighters One ofthe most common forms of German propaganda . in America at this moment deals with “discrimina- tion’" in the army against this or that church ,or fraternity. Thinking pei” ples pay very. little attention to this particular manifestation of the Yellow Deg, knowing that nowhere ig religi- ous liberty so carefully insured as. in the army. For the benefit of those who have been bothered by these stor- ies, the following, which deals with the work of, a chaplain born and reared in Bismarck,‘is reprinted from a leading religious paper: “The following extract-from the let- ters-of a soldier, at-Camp Cody, Dem- ing, IN.
