Amftong other things this country of ours has gained: ‘ 1. Such a position that no other nation or combination of nations will ever dare defy our military power again. 2. The hegemony (leadership) of Anglo-Saxon peoples. . 3. Loss of all fear of the much touted “yellow peril.” (See one.) 4. Such respect for us and such confidence in us on the part of Latin America that Latin Amer- 9, ica nations will no longer fear that we have de- signs on the mor be jealous of us.

(Established 1873) Qi i nconditional urrender eee | i PUNISHMENT. “We are not out for revenge, we are out for | reparation,” said Lord Derby recently. \ In the vicinity of victory we are likely to loose! the smouldering spirit of hatred within us for which we condemn and despise the Hun. Revenge is not a part of the Christianity we profess. A million more Huns dead won't restore life to one boy of ours slain over there. But several million Teutonic murderers, ren- dered impotent and compelled to make such reparation as is possible, destined to live on— loathed by humanity till purged of the bestiality | with which their race is besotted—will suffer most keenly. Bring the beast to his knees but don’t hack the! body for sheer bloodlust. Mental torture is the only effectual means of dealing with this arch-criminal, civilization’s menace. Give them the peace our president prescribes ; time will complete the havoc to the octracized Hun that Foch the Formidable has already begun! —— a Tife Italians are now defeating an army without 4 YOUR PART. From the tumult and confusion of a thousand shouted slogans, elaborate programs, and “get- peace-quick” schemes, the average man strives to dividual citizen—may “win the war.” Reduced to their lowest terms every slogan and program offered, amounts to just this:' Produce as much as possible. i Consume as little as necessary. } Lend your earnings to the government. ? This three ply, every-day and all-day duty of the individual citizen is as unromantic, as hard to per- form, as vitally important as the daily drudgery | of drill and guard duty for the rookie and the full-| fledged soldier. The war will not be won by slogans, by spectacu-| lar heroism, by erratic and temporary responses} to patriotic appeals. The war will be won when every civilian knuckles down and fights to “win the war” as the sacrifice, to co-operations#the unit for the whole, the soldier for the army=the private citizen for the nation! | i Privately owned street car lines in 240 cities! have raised rates above the usual five-cent fare. —_— d | “GOD WILL NOT BE SHUNTED BY KAISER, LIKE A WOODEN IMAGE.” ey The kaiser not only believed that he was the senior partner in the firm of “Me und Gott,” but! he had the nerve to kick out his junior partner— the Almighty—in order to hasten, through blood and loot, the coming of the “super-race” of which he himself should be the head. Perhaps he had an agreement with himself that when he had beaten the laws of natural evolution in the building up of his “superior people” by de-| stroying the “common folks” of earth, he would put God back on His German throne, and permit the race to worship Him—the God who first made the Germans great, and Who was then enthroned by the master of both God and the German race of “super-men.” But apparently God isn’t playing the game to suit the kaiser. He refuses to be shunted to one side like a wooden image, to be brought forth and festooned with garlands, heading the procession, as the kaiser and his race of “super-men” march} victorious into the streets of Paris. It will be a sad and humiliating awakening to the kaiser when he discovers that God is the Father of us all—tender, and merciful and with a yearning for the good of mankind, and that He refuses to delegate to a bloody war-lord of any race the task of bringing together His children “that they may all be one.”—Rev. Charles Stelzle. \ | Only her potato crop of 1917 kept England from | in'19f8. Hats off to the humble spud. of victory, the potato peals. - 5. A national self-respect free from all Chau- vinism or jingoism. 6. The confidence of the plain people, the workers of our country, that our government is not unduly influenced by the possesso¥s of: great wealth. Witness the income tax, the excess pro- fits tax, the inheritance tax. Also witness the just treatment of the legitimate demands of all classes of labor. 7. The recognition by the “kings of capital” and the “lords of industry” of their humble posi- tion as servants of the people. 8. The introduction and approval of a new sys- {tem of raising revenue for public expenses: that of taxing citizens according to their ability to pay.

It is futile to pray that some conception of the brilliant and beneficfent game Wilson is playing may be lodged in Lodge’s brain, Probably Wilson regrets now—certainly the’ rest of us do—that the colonel isn’t absorbed in| military activities at the front. “My father was educated abroad” will cease to be,a remark of infant snobbery when those Amer- ican schools in France begin to turn out soldier- students. Why does Fritz waste steel for helmets? Ten. thousand bottles left behind by retreating Huns. Teutonic cruelty is again evidenced—they were empties. Wounded soldiers lend each other their wooden legs. Sounds like Shakespeare’s Three Witches in “Macbeth” passing around the one “eye they shared between them. To save coal formerly used for laundering, the British are abandoning stiff shirt fronts. At the same time, they are adopting stiff battle fronts and taking the starch out of the Huns. A serious outbreak of lockjaw is reported in the German army. Take warning, you Americans who try to pronounce the names of those French towns those Germans are evacuating!
