N IMMINENT
DANGER FROM
HIDDEN NINE

This office has received a letter from
Reinhold Lieder, $50 Seventh street,
Milwaukee, formerly a resident OF
North Freedom, which says that Mrs.
Lieder has returned from Europe with
some thrilling experiences to relate.
He says she had quite a time getting
back and at one time came near being
blown up by mine.
She brought with her sheet of thin
paper on which is printed an appeal to
Americans by the people of Germany
In order to get the paper home it was
necessary for Mrs. Lieder to secrete
the sheet in her clothing. 1t was print
ed in Hamburg and gives the German
viewpoint Of the war, the following
being a few quotations from the long
articles. Space in this paper forbidding
the publication of the whole:
This position of ours may explain to
those abroad the stand taken by our
social democracy, namely, that today
the most peace-loving party-Ieadprs are
standing at the front in battle as volun-
teers. The social democracy desired
peace, demonstrated for peace to the
last. But when suddenly the mist
cleared and every child saw the terrible
danger in which the father and was,
then indeed the entire German people
rose as one man. Then indeed the
whole nation from the Emperor to the
most convinced social democrat rose in
a solid line against the threefold at
tempt to throttle it. Then indeed in
one day all political parties in our
country ceased to exist. Germans went
to the front to fight for a beloved
fatherland, for Germanic culture.
81 have read an article of moral indig-
nation over the burning of Louvain.
The Belgian mob can certainly not de-
plOre half as much as we Germans,
what it did when it forced our brave,
disciplined troops to this extreme.
The whole civilized world mourns that
this fate had to befall LOuvaln of all
places. But why twofold ethics here?
TOW if the English French plan of
taking US by surprise had succeeded?
How if Germany with its rich treas
ures of art and architecture had been
buried under the triple mass of attack?
Would that have been different? Many
Americans know the Rhineland, know
the wonderful cathedral or Cologne.
Believe me, Americans! If the three
fold attack had been successful and Ger
many had really been caught like a
mouse in trap, no Frerchman, no
Russian, no Briton would have shed one
tear for the lost cultural Ialu IS. The
attack, prepared years before, failed
Germany rose in flaming indigna alton
Germany defended herself, Germany
dealt blows toward the east and the
west which no one could have expected
from country fighting against three
fronts. Now, all of sudden these
t rec countries that deliberately en- /
d avOured for years to shut in Ger
m ny, call upon civilization. Now of
sudden they think of cultural values
that are being destroyed by war so
criminalIy brought about. Can the cry
of the disappointed really deceive a
sober and clear thinking mind? Ash
myself, like so many of you, have Ger
man and English blood in my veins,
cannot rate you so low as to believe
that"

PROBLEM OF THE
BOY DISCUSSED
BY PROF. O'SHEA

Professor M. V. O'Sheagof the State
University at Madison discussed the
boy problem at the Baraboo high school
auditorium on Monday evening under
the auspices of the Monday aEvening
club. The speaker was introduced by
Superintendent A. c. Kingford.
Mr.. O'Shea said that the we'll known
statement of "See Naples and die, :"
was no longer true. Naples herself is
dying because the boys of that city
grow old too soon. The people of that
city have lost sight of the fact that the
boys and girls should be kept young,
resulting in all mingling together in
crowded places, the last gener ations
rising earlier than the former ones so
that her youth is Indifferent to the
sober things in life. AS in the past
with other centers of population, Naples
will go unless something is discovered
to keep the boys and girls growing
Intellectually.

The Same in London

He spoke of the same conditions In,
London. In the White Chapel district.
there are so, 900 children who are of the,
degenerated class on account of
crowded conditions. The situation is
being carefully studied in England.
The boy should not be man at Il
and the girl should not be woman at
13. Nature cannot adapt herself to
such advancement and the result is
degeneration. Docility, simplicity and
other essential attributes are lost, The
glory of Naples is in her art galleries
and old churches, not in stronger grow
ing generations.
The same over stimulation is found
in our American cities. The moving
pictures, the theatre, the street and
other phases of city life detract from
the slow growth which boy or girl
should enjoy and they are soon lifted
up to men and women experiences. No
nation ever advanced where the youth
degenerated. Some of the young men
at the university live at such a pace
their lives are burned out. They do not
settle down and develop slowly; too
much blood and thunder.

What the School Stands For

The school stands for all that has,
been discovered and accomplished for
the development of the young. After
all this has been done, may boys out of
school spend their time in questionable
places, in questionable company. Pro-
fessor O'Shea would have them engage
in some serious work at least portion
of the time when out of school. The
parents should know where they are.
They deplored the modern dances as
INDUCED in by boys and girls. This
form of amusement originated in the
folk dances and they were not 80 bad
for they give agility and exercise. The
waltz and two step were not to his lik-
ing and the dances of today he would
not tolerate. They are too personal.
Boys and girls should not be made to-
think they are in the company of OLD
fogies but in an atmosphere that is
Wholesome. We are all imitators. He.
will have the greatest pleasure in the:
end who lived the simple life in the be-
ginning. He deplored the losing power
of application of the boys and girls Of
the present and said they should be
made to look upon life in more serious
aspect. The awkward boy, the chang
ing boy and many other boys came in
for consideration, the key note of it all
being that the boy should grow slowly
as nature intended him to grow.
