AUGUST Is, 1917.
EITHER OVER THERE
 OR OVER HERE.
Selected by Mother)

Nothing is to be gained by go- ing over the points involved in sinking of the Lusitania. Moth ing is to he gained by a discus sion of whether or not we should have declared war. Nothing is to be gained by talking about saw ing civilization and democracy and humanity. What we should get in mind is the one fact that if we fail to whip Germany over there, we shall have to deal with Ger many over here. It doesn't mat ter where your sympathies were before April 6 last; it doesn't { matter how your predjuices or predilections may run now; the fact stares you in the face of a possible foreign invasion of your country, and it does matter to you, your family and your niegh- bors, how you treat that fact, Should Germany by any possibil- ity get the upper hand, you will pay and pay dearly, pay in blood, pay in treasurer, pay in humilia- tion, pay in loss of liberty, and that's the whole of it.
 War is he'll" At the present time the fires are raging in Europe; they must be put out over there or we shall witness their devasting work here in our own fair land. There is no other way to look at it; we are fighting in defense of American rights, American homes and American lives. Snowflake Herald.

SHEPPARD DOG
WINS PRIZES
Admired by Crowds at Show Because
OF HIS Great Record In
Red Cross Work.

United Press Leased Wire Service.1
NEW YORK Feb. ga somewhat
commonplace looking dog Of the
shepherd variety was the centre OF
an admiring group Of men. women
and children at the dog show today.
He was the German sheep dog
which won second prize, but that was
not why they admired him. The
Teutonic CANNES intelligence and
bravery in saving wounded soldiers
In the French trenches on the west
ern front, was the real cause Of his
popularity.
Flick, of Lawanno, though not much
to look at, is credited with having
the brains and daring OF a Red Cross
man in rescue work. E1lex UP to a
few weeks ago, when he started over
seas for the dog show, had brought
in fifty-four wounded on the battle
field.
Flick though modest and unassum-
ing seemed just trifle conscious of
three red ribbons fluttering from his
throat, tokens of the show judges
esteem.
