Chancellor Won Bethmanr-Holl-
veg today announced TO the Reich

allies, conscious Of their responsibility
before God, before their own nations.

morning to the hostile Powers TO enter

Practically all the members Of Par

mons. The crowded house and thronG-
cd galleries listened in attentive 81
leTee when the Chancellor rose for his
speech The Chancellor first outlined
the extraordinary political situation
and then, insisting upon the achieve
1nentS OF the central Powers, made az
announcement which possibly may be
the turning point in the war, which for
more than two years has held the
world under its spell. The Chanccl-
Tor SAID:

fulfilled quicker, almost, than expected.

themselves
The Chancellor said Rumania had
entered the war in order to roll up
TIC German positions in the east, and
those of Germany's allies. At the same
time, the grand offensive on the SOM
lie had as its objective to pierce the
German front, and the renewed Italian
attacks were intended to paralyZe
Austria Hungary.

Officers Find Organization is
Founded on an Appetite

Meet Only When Food Is
Served.

Because the members Of the Ger
man-American Alliance will only at
tend meetingse when sandwiches and
chasers are served, the officers of the
organization last night decided to dis
band
A meeting was called for Haas
Hall last night, at which plans for the
new year were to be discussed. Charles

treasurer, and Secretary Wibbenmeyer
We're the only members present.
President Blattner ordered that SIS,
which had been collected for the Ger
man red cross, be sent to its proper
destination. He also ordered all bills
to be paid. The three officials then
decided to quit.
In discussing their action. one Of the
members said to The Tribune: we
have been calling meetings ever since
the picnic season closed, but the Off
GERS are the only ones who seem tc
have enough interest in the orgaEiza-
zion to attend.
'In order to get crowd out, we
have to advertise the fact that we are
going to serve 4 free banquet. If the
organization must be a free-lunch al
fair, then it ought to go out of bust
ness. There has not been the least
interest shown since the night Of our
annual election, when we held our last
banquet.
at looks to me like 4 great many of
our members are Gcrman-AmericanS
because they like the sandwiches. If
we could serve q picnic lunch every
time we met. am sure sc would have
more members present than the hall
could hold. But an organization like
this must have something more than
an appetite behind it to amount to q
great deal
The German-Amegican Alliance has
been in existence for several years in
Cape Girardeau. During each sum
mer. it gives picnics and serves bar
hecued meat Each member is re
quirad to pay an annual fee OF 81.

tend the banquetS. the expenses o. /
which are paid out Of the general fund. /
This. il is said, gives those who attend |
regularly about SO worth of food for
the annual fee OF 81.
1t is this spirit, the officers said.
which prompted them to disband. 1t is
said that there isn't enough money in
he treasury to serve sandwiches for
pne mere evening. The balances viii

MILK IN WINTER

Why do your COWS give less milk
in winter than they do in summer =?
Just because nature does not supply
them with grasses and green food.
But we have come to the assistance
of Dame Nature with b. A. Thomas
Stock Remedy which contains the very
ingredients that the green feed sup
plies in season, only Of course, in a
more highly concentrated form. We
guarantee that this remedy will make
your cows give more milk, and better
