Threatening America With
The German Vote

right.
You cannot resist the call of
militarism. You scream with joy
at every victory that promises to
bring democracy in Europe to the
feet of the German military clique.
You demand that Americans ap-
plaud every barbarous, murderous
act committed by Germany in this
frightful war. Your Fatherland
has violated our sea rights. destroy
ed our property and killed our in
rocent non-combatant citizens. 1t
ignores our protests and denies us
| PREPARATION. These acts you ap-
prove and you expect us to rejoice
with you when they are committed.
You organize fake peace societies
to oppose American national de-
tense that Germany may not be
hampered when the time comes. !"
Through you Germany proposes to
| do to America with ballots what she
is trying to do to Europe with bull
| lets.
Our government is to be Kaiser
lied. Your success is intimidating
a few public men and newspapers
in cities where the German element
is large has befoggled your judg-
ment. Germans entrance into the
politics of this country is an ex-
ampae of the German spirit" that
is to dominate the world. 1t is the
lsame domineering, brutal and bar
haric instinct that prompted the
rape of Belgium and that induced
theleader of your movement to enter
the French pavilion at the Panama
Pacific Exposition a few days age
with a company of his friends ant
wave German flags.
Your absurd propaganda is doins
nothing more than to seriously of
fend loyal Americans. You repre-
sent but a small portion Of the so
called German American vote. Ge
thenotion out of your head tina
, American conscience and sense o.
justice is in your keeping; that you
alone possess thewisdom to guild

your allegiance to the Stars AM

health is to continue. After a night
of uninterrupted sleep one feels re-

In this day of much talk of con-
servation, health begins to claim at
tention as worthy of special care.
Health is the most valuable personal
asset one may possess and the very
first requisite to it's conservation must
be an appreciation of the value of it.
After that it becames necessary to do
something more than idly wish to be
we'll One must be willing to do what
ever is necessary in order to be well.
Instructions in general hygiene,
including fairly definite ideas of
proper eating and drinking, of clean
illness and exercise, of fresh air and
sunshine, is easily available to any
one who reads current magazines or
even takes advantage of the daily
press, but it is not generally well
known, perhaps, that sleep is one of
the most important of the functions
of the body.
AS a prominent psychologist has
said: "a man can live for month
without either food or water, but he
must succumb after only few days
if he does not sleep at all"
Experiment has proven this state
ment. In animals subjected to such
experiment it was observed that the
temperature became subnormal by
several degrees and the red blood
cells were decreased in number by
