Wards Of the World.

81 am a profound believer in the
great heartedness Of the United States
and there is not an American OF Ger
man origin who ought not gladly, free
ly, TO give to the relief Of the people
who. unless the world feeds them, must
be the remnant of nation. And the
world in this case is the United States.
She can give the most. The price OF
one good meal a week for a family In
an American home will keep a Belgian
alive for fortnight. Probably the
United States has 100000 homes.
How many OF them will deny them
selves meal for martyred Belgium
The mass of the American people do
not need TO deny themselves anything
10 give to Belgium. The whole stand

is so much higher than the European
standard that If they lowered the scale

For myself, the martyrdom of Belgium
had been a nightmare since the tall Oh
Liege. Whoever or whatever country
is TO blame for this war, Belgium IS IN
nocent. Her hands are free from stain.
She has kept the faith. She saw 1t with
ewes Of duty and honor. Her govern

King is in the trenches. Her army is
decimated, but the last declmals hght

"Her people wander in foreign LANDS,

look for homes. Those left behind
huddle near the ruins Of their snat-
tered villages or take refuge In towns
which cannot feed { cir own citizens.
Many cities and towns have been com
