BUY LIBERTY BONDS TO PROTECT YOUR OWN CHILDREN. ’ ° She’s Squealing Fe Cities along Germany's southern border are crying out against bombardment. German war lords denounce the use of shotguns by our troops as unnecessary cruelty and against Hague conventions, and threaten “reprisals.” The Germans believe in unrestricted frightfulness, as a war measure. The quickest way to conquer a people so believing is to give them plenty of their own medicine. We cannot get down to the German level of degradation t mar A ville, Mo, you might guess are mil and inflict upon even Germans unlimited brutality. But we tiners. In which case you guess in hope to see a decided improvement in the bombing of Ger- | correctly. They are real estate ers man cities, all of which are fortified, and we're going to %* look the other way every time an American shotgun brings ,, down a Hun who has violated Hague conventions. As to “reprisals,” the time has passed when Germany held the advantage in respect of “reprisals.” There are now more German prisoners than prisoners of the allied nations, with Russians counted out. The balance is 10 to 1 as to America and Germany. As soon as some German cities are captured, the allies will likely start “reprisals” of their own, German cities may be made to pay, as Belgian cities have been. We rather guess that Germany is going to get a stomach- ful of bombing and “reprisals.” BUY LIBERTY BONDS, THAT YOUR SON AND Your Part From the tumult and confusion of a thousand shouted slogans, elaborate programs, and “get-peace-quick” schemes, the average man strives to single out the simple acts by which he—the individual citizen—may “win the war.” Reduced to their lowest terms every slogan and pro- gram offered amounts to just this: Your individual part in the war is to: Se =. wa Consume as little as 5 Lend your earnings to the govern ment. This three-ply, every-day and all-day duty of the in- dividual citizen is as unromantic, as hard to perform, 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 spectacular heroism, by erratic and temporary responses to patriotic appeals. | The war will be won when every citizen knuckles down and fights to “win the war’ as the soldier fights—giving himself to service, to self-sacrifice, to co-operation—the unit for the whole, the soldier for the army—the private citizen | for the nation! | Our Kind of Peace “It is a matter of damnable importance,” says the Cologne Gazette, always regarded as a semi-official Ger- man journal, “whether we are or are not regarded thruout the world as a nation of blackguards. Indeed, we are being so regarded.” | Says the Munich Post: | “We are not fighting for Flanders and for the Baltic} provinces, but for our bare existence. We are fighting) for a peace that will yield us nothing and deprive us of| nothing.” | The War Mothers’ convention, at Evansvillée, Ind., sent this message to President Wilson and Gen. Pershing: iq “We stand loyally behind you in your desire to make! no peace until Germany and her allies surrender uncon- ditionally.” We publish these quotations together as showing how little Germans understand matters and how thoroughly Americans do. He Had a Chance to See It is intimated at Washington that Bulgarian Minister Panaretoff used all his influence to bring about his coun- try’s decision to quit fighting. Very likely, indeed. Mr. Panaretoff has had oppor- tunity to see how we make soldiers by the million and raise war money by the billion. He realizes the spirit moving great America at this time. He sees a young, fresh giant rising to beat the brutality out of the Hun, a giant whose vision is that right is might and shall prevail. If Turkey and even Austro-Hungary could see America as she is, as Mr. Panaretoff has opportunity to see her, the Hun would speedily become a mighty lonesome brute. Keep It Out The Telegraaf, a famous newspaper of Holland, says: “At Anseremme, 18 women and two children were soncealed under a bridge. The German soldiers caught sight of them and fired with a machine gun until there was no more sign of life. On the following morning they burned the corpses, probably that they might not be ac-| tused of having killed defenseless people.” | Keep the German army out of America, Liberty Bonds area mortgage on eve rything of value in this country.
