JUNE Is, 1917.
Sixty-seventh day of America in the War
GERMANY'S WORLD CONQUEST
PLANS
PLANS.

Germany is no longer denying her world
conquest plans-rather she is publishing
them, possibly because she thinks the time
ripe tor such an aVoWal, possibly to enCOur-
age the tagging hopes of her people,
Witness the recent publication in Ger
many of the late Governor General Won
Bissings plans for the subjugation of Bel
9ium, and the exploitation of her resources
to push another and a greater war after the
present one has put the kaiser in the ante
room of world domination
In country Of such perfect Centra1iza-
ton, such absolute censorship as Germany,
the publication Of such a document must
have been not only with the governments
consent, but with its approval, and when
Won Kissing SAYS that the strategic aim of
the present war is to gain room for the con
Centration and advance of German armies
in new war against England and France,
he is describing what we have too much
reason to know is the actual plan of the
war lords OF autocracy.
Propaganda of similar sort is found in
4 pamphlet whose title translated, is
"Germany's Position Under Good and Bad
Peace which is being distributed by the
government.
-AillOlIS ltS lCdltl g lldN DG llenIlOnGu
the map that shows Germany coverinf, or
dominating, three-fourths of Europe
France is to be a German provinces Ger
many and the Scandinavian countries are
to be Joined in a customs union against the
world; Germany's sphere of influence is-to
be extended in Afghanistan and Persia
the Azores, Cape Verde and other islands
are to be Prussianized, while Poland Cour-
land, Finland, the Baltic provinces, and
most of European Russia are to be protec-
torates of the kaiser.
Last, but not least a vivid picture is
drawn Of Germany with the wealth of the
world for her indemnity.
Germany has declared so many times
that America is to furnish that great de
sideratum, humping indemnity, that we
do not have to be told where the money is
to come from.
Let Americans make no mistake! We
are fighting for Our national and economic
life. Our chances of winning will increase
in direct ratio with our understanding al
this fact.

SHADY GROVE.

Shady Grove, June 14.-Last Fri
day was a red letter day for the chill
dren of the Shady Grove Sunday
school. Early in the morning they
began to gather for a picnic at the
foot of Ocheesee Lake. The forenoon
passed off quickly with bathing, fish
ing and boating, to fill up the time.
Then came the call to dinner and how
the hungry kiddies made the picnic
dainties fly! But the kiddies were not
the only ones who brought their ap-
petites along. After dinner the happy
hours soon passed, and before we
realized it it was time to go home.
Everyone voted the picnic a success,
and we were sorry for all who could
not be there. Especial thanks are
due to Mr.. Claud Afford and Mr..
Henry Oliver for their care in seeing
that every child had a good time and
was we'll taken care of.
Misses Mabel and Addie Sims spent

that when the marine insurance companies

And now Uncle Sam proposes to do for

INSURANCE FOR SOLDIERS.

The best government in the world
that's an old story now about the United
States-not only are its abstract ideals
higher; but without being paternalistic. it
does more for the people than any other.
Pensions and soldiers pay, for instance, are
the most liberal in the world And now a
still more advanced step is contemplated
nothing like it was ever attempted.
No less than to insure against death and
disability every soldier, sailor and marine
who leaves America for the war in Europe!
With formulation of the bill already be-
gun by Assistant Secretary of Commerce
Sweet, the question will be put squarely
Eefore the insurance men of the nation;
but if they cannot handle it, the govern
r'ent itself, according to present plans, will
undertake it.
It's a big job, working out the propef
ratios and making financial provision for
the future, but big Jobs, impossible Jobs
have been the speciality of the United
States, from the time when a few farmers

When the whistles and bells yester-
dav reminded Pensacola that only six
hours remained in which to get a

phoned to find out if the city was on
fire. But it is worse than that-the
world is on fire, though a lot of peo-
pie don't realize It.
If Florida is to attain her military
quota by June so, there must be 80
enlistments a day, and there are only
about IA now. Men who have no
dependents, are physically sound, and
are not employed in certain specified
occupations, will most undoubtedly be
called for combative service, all of
them, and they should enlist now and
become heroes instead of waiting to
be dragged in and Salled conscripts.
