"HlDEKK" IS LATEST WORD
Germans, According to Report, Have
Coined Mystic Term of Hate
for England.

10 judge by what appears in the
German press the pretty motto, "Gott
strafe England God punish
England"-is gradually falling out of
use, and is being replaced by another
shibboleth which consists of one word,
"Hidekk." When two persons meet
they say, instead of Good morning" or
"Gott strafe England" "Hidekk,' and
to the same word they drink each 9th.
er's health at the beer table and at
dinner. But the reader will in vain
seek for the meaning of the word in
German dictionary, nor will he find
It in any existing or past language.
1t is coined word composed of the
initial letters of the following phrase:
"Hauptsache ist dass England Keile
kriegt," which can be translated thus:
THE main thing is that England gets
a good hiding"
On the subject of this interesting
word Herr Leo Frobenius, the we'll.
known African traveller, tells the fol.
lowing edifying story in Berlin jour
nal: He and other Germans were re.
turning through the Suez canal and
were in the habit of clinking their
glasses to the word "Hidekk." A com.
pany of Englishmen who used to sit
at another table became curious as to
the meaning of the strange word and
inquired about it of an Arab inter
prefer. The interpreter promptly re.
piled that the word was a Hungarian
one, meaning sharp" and used by
the Germans to express their anger
against the English. The Englismen,
says Herr Frobenius, evidently
thought that they could use the same
word with respect to them, and got
up at the table the following day and,
clinking their glasses and looking
hard at the Germans, said "Hidekk."
Whereupon Herr Frobenius and his
friends laughed heartily.-London

With President Wilson making pre-

the nation at the present time, thf

editorial discussions of the subject
While there are some notable dissent
ing voices. as a whole the newspa
rers of the country are responding to
the appeal of the president for support
of his policy We have not had time
to read all the Oklahoma papers but
Of those that we have examined we
find that the majority of them are in
favor of taking adequate steps for
the protection of America. Among the
larger papers of the state, the Mus
kogce Times Democrat and the Nc

the opponents of preparedness. The

The Durant Democrat says.
mo one can accuse President VIII
son of being an alarmist. He urges
preparedness AS a solemn duty to the
country. His ear is attuned to catch
the warnings of the almost world
wide conflict. He gravely urges the
people to beware of dangers which he
is trying to avoid. He says it has
been a difficult task to avoid these
CANCERS. Perhaps he is unable to
warn the country Of just what he
fears without precipating those fears
into actuaIities In this time Of
world-stress and after President Will
son has steered us clear OF war for
eighteen months with provocation for
war at hand every day, surely enough
confidence has been inspired to trust
the president little further and give

president Wilson found his straight

On his tour and that outspoken AM
cricanism is the only kind of politi-
cal doctrine that appeals to Amer
cans as people. Wilson is more OF
man OF peace talking the t. r.
language than he ever was when he
was catering to the Bryan pacifists.
The western tour was a splendid sue
cess and has given the nation a re-
newed confidence in the government.
The Examiner believes the tour has
restored to the president the undis-
puted national leadership that is nee
essary to insure our national well,
being under the conditions that exist
at the present and will develop in the
near future. Wilson's trip was the
bold action Of man entrusted with
leadership who sincerely believed in
the imperative need of personal
touch with the men who would he

ness than he is willing to reveal, is
evident in the by-product of his ad.
dress than any definite statement.
His broad declaration that We are
cast upon perilous times, when the
whole world is in conflagration and
no one knows what the next hour
may bring us to, ought to be oe
sufficient warning to make any
reasonable citizen come no his sup
port in his delicate duty in protect
ing the honor of his country. While
the president reiterates that he does
not base his plea for preparedness on
any specific danger confronting the
nation, it must be taken for granted
that il the secret displomatic exchang
cs point to any such it would not
he wisdom from him to point it out.
This country should be prepared,
both on land and on sea, and esps-
clally on sea. Our war ships are dis
tanced in speed and their guns in
lange. The experts give it that We
have just enough powder to last one
half hour fire in a naval battle and
one hour on land But what we need
most is that our commerce and mail
be carried by American vessels. 1t
is a shame that on the Pacific we
have no merchant marine and that
our very mail is carried by Japanese
vessels. Were our citizens travel
ing on American passenger ships on
the Atlantic there would be none OF
the complications of the Lusitania
and Persia; any belligerent nation in
order to destroy American lives
would have to fire on American, not
English or italian ships.
Let ii be said to the credit OF tie
American people that the president
is finding support in his plea for pre-
paredness everywhere, even in safes
where the politicians thought tc
guage their public policy of inland
trance, and oblivion to the new con-
dition this great nation now occupies
