Salem Minister viii
Become Evangelist

The Rev. W. G.. Lienkaemper, of the
Bethany Reformed church, preached his
farewell sermon last Sunday and will
leave today for Portland where he will
take up evangelical work.
He came to Salem about five years
ago under the auspices of the Board of
Home Missions of the Reformed church
in order to build up the local church.
His work has been very successful here,
and the board now asks him to leave
and take up social work in Portland.
Monday evening, a reception was
rendered him and his wife in the way
of farewell parting. C. Anderegg,
who had charge of the reception, called
on Mrs. Hans Tuffli, who spoke in be-
half of the Ladies Aid society, present
ing Mrs. Lienkaemper with a sum of
money in gold. Speaking in behalf of
the congregation, Hans Tuffli ex-
pressed the regret of the congregation
that he should leave for another field of
work. John Denny, president of the
Heidelberg Guild, also spoke few ap-
propriate and fitting words in behalf
of the society.
A call has been extended to the Rev.
M. Denny of Dillon, Kansas, who will
enter upon his work in the near future.

DEFENDS
PREPAREDNESS POLICY
Former President Declares
Might Is Servant Of Right
In World

Washington, Dec. 29.-"At present,
in this world and for the immediate fu
ture, it is certain that the only way
successfully to oppose the might which
is the servant of wrong is by means of
right"
In these words, Colonel Roosevelt
summed up his reasons for advocating
military preparedness, in a paper read
for him today by Professor Ed Ross
Of the University Of Wisconsin before
the American Sociology society.
In referring to the civilizations of
Belgium, China and Persia, he declared
that before these nations were overrun
they had men who took toward the
realities the same attitude as DR.. Da-
vid Starr Jordan of Leland Stanford
university, California, and Henry Ford,
at present entertain.
"We have discovered how right liv-
ing may spread so universally in Chi
cago and New York." he said, "that
abolish their police forces, then and
not until then it will be worth while
to talk about the abolition of war;. "
Roosevelt held the essential thing
for nation to bear mind "is that il
an INSCRIPTIONS, warhke and militaris-
tic nation is not held in check by the
warlike ability of on-militaristic
and well behaving nation, then the lat
ter will be spared the necessity of deal
with moral and social values because
it will ont be allowed to deal with any
thing"
He scoffed at the non-militarists as
comic ~ for failing to see the ex-
ample of what an aggressive nation can
do, as in the case of Belgium. More
over, he ridiculed tnose who hold force
is immoral
off they are right in the theory"
he said, "then it is wrong for a man
to endeavor bv force to save his wife
or daughter from abuse, or to save his
children from abduction and torture. !"
At the same time, he declared that
opposition to armed force is just as
logical as opposition to having consta-
bles, sheriffs and policemen.

Queer Men With ShoueLS
ForetoLd Fall of Monastir

The rumble of hundreds of OK carts
moving provisions from the town filled
the night,
Saturday afternoon there was noise
like distant thunder. Guns! the faces
on the streets told no stories; but you
passed Monastirians who listened as to
sweet music; you passed Serbians who
listened with fear in theier hearts.
There were no communiques. Only
rumors. signs. Sunday was bad day
The sound of guns was nearer In the
late afternoon wagons began carrying
packages from the Russian, Italian and
French eonsulates to the station. Thus
was the story being told of what was
happening north of the city. At .
went with a correspondent to army
headquarters. We were received by Col
Niketich. He entered the room and
shook our hands.
"What about our going to the
front? ?" we asked him.
Gentlemen" he said, "the situa.
ton is very grave. We have done our
best but we re falling back. Only two
regiments are left. They can hold Bal.
buna Pass until tonight. They will
fall back and hold Perlepe two days,
then fall back toward Monastir. They
can hold Monastir three days. Gentle.
men, we are ready to evacuatc." We
tried to sympathize with him. He
wouldn't accept sympathy. He stood
straight and proud. "It's war" he
said simply, "and the scrbans have
done the hest they could" Then Col,
Niketich put the censor's mark on our
dispatches and as we started to say
goodbye, he said:
"But. gentlemen, what about your.
selves9 How win you leave the town7'
We said we had hoped to go toward
Perlepe.
"Don't do that" said the colonel.
"You would certainly be caught by
Bulgarian comitadiis. Let me warn you
not to 90 on the roads outside the town.

going to see him again. He said good.

salonica, Greece, Dec. 16.-The last
days at Monastir, before its fall were
indeseribably exciting. Monastir is
really Bulgarian. Talk Of massacre was
in the air. While the Bulgarian guns
doomed within earshot of the town rum
ors of plans for a general massacre by
the Bulgarians Of the few remaining
Serbian civilians filled the air. The
few remaining Serbian civilians were
going to massacre the Bulgarians. The
Serbian soldiers were going to loot the
town. Among the Bulgarians were hun.
dreds of Bulgarian soldiers, disguised
as civilians, who at the last moment
would mobilize in the town and ravage
il. All these rumors found believers.
Nish, when the German-Austrian
army entered Serbia, decorated with
flags of the allies, believing the French
and British would come dashing in on
trains and stop the German tide. But
the days went by and the flags were
stained by the rains and became as
limp and lifeless as the hopes of Nish
for rescue. Nish finally fell to the Teu.
tons and the Bulgars with the bedrag-
gled flags still hanging. The Serbian
folk at Ushkub did the same. Ushkub
fell with Nish.
Monastir had no such feeling. In
Monastir, Bulgarian until three years
ago, were plenty of folk who would
have hung German, Austrian and Bull
garian flags except for the presence
Of q few Serbian soldiers who held
Monastir with an iron hand. Through
the nights before the Bulgarians come,
they marched the streets in patrols of
fours. Serbian civilian volunteers stood
at all important street corners with
rifles. Bulgarians found with fire arms
were considered spies or traitors and
shot. The few Serbians in the town
were lords Of authority as long as their
little army of two regiments held Bal
buna Pass, 40 miles north of Monnstir.
On Friday, November IL, we saw a
strange procession pass through the
streets. II was little regiment Of
Serbian farmers with shovels. In their
queer fur coats, woolen stockings and
odd hats, they presented a most Pc
cuhar sight. Their long handled, dia.
mond-shaped shovels took the places Of
bayonets. The long ragged line march
ed out Of the town. Women and girls
ran alongside, carrying baskets Of food
A few miles out they stopped and began
20 dig trenches under the direction Of
Serbian officers.
This was the first sign that Monastir
was in danger. To the north the lit
tie Serbian army was giving way
against terrific odds. Sometime soon
they would come falling back through
the mountain passes and over the farms
and hills TO these trenches the farmers
were digging and here make their last
stand. The men with the shovels told
Monastir the whole story.
That night in Monastir the guard was
doubled. Civilians were ordered indoors.
