covery of 100000, cached in an out of
the-way spot in the hills of Graham

All Well.

The day is ended. Ere l sink to sleep,
My weary spirit seeks repose in
Thine.
Father. forgive my trespasses, and keep
This little life of mine.
With loving kindness curtain Thou my
bed,
And cool in rest my burning pilgrim
feet;
Thy pardon be the pillow for my head;
So shall my sleep be sweet.
At peace with all the world, dear Lord
and Thee,
No fears my soul s unwavering faith
can shake;
All's well, whichever side the grave
for me
The morning light may break.

Menace of the Camps

Every precaution will be
taken to safeguard the health
OF the conscripts. But how
about their morals?
Shall we permit the saloon
and the brothel to do business
IN the vicinity Of these camps?
Booze and prostitution do not
strengthen armies. They des-
troy them!
During the Russo-Japanese
war, the Mikado's generals
would not permit woman in
the vicinity of their armies.
The representatives of the
Gar endorsed no such moral
code. The Japs barred strong
drink from their camps. The
Russians indulged to excess.
The result is now chapter
OF history. With inferior fore
es the japanese won battle af-
ter battle and brought the war
to a conclusion on their own
terms.
This is not an isolated in
stance. Oliver Cromwell was
one of the greatest generals of
all time. When he took COM
mand of the Parliamentary
army in England it was dis
organized rabble which could
not withstand the assaults of
King Charles Cavaliers. Crom
well drove out women and
strong drink and his "Round
heads marched from victory

England's Great BIunder

We hear much about pro
fitting by the mistakes of our
allies and it is not a bad doc
trine.
England's greatest blunder
was her refusal to suppress the
liquor traffic at the very begin
ming of the war. Lloyd George
wanted to take that step, but
the brewers and distillers were
too strong for him. They said
Tommy, Atkins" needed his
grog. Of course, they were not
thinking about "Tommy's"
moral or physical we'll being.
What they wanted were divi-
dends and they have received
them in generous measure, but
England has paid a terrible
price in decreased efficiency
and moral degeneracy.
Arthur Nee and j. Stuart
Holden have written a book
telling Of England's experience
Copies have reached this side
of the ocean. 1t is a startling
story and one which should be
taken to heart by the American
people. I will quote just one
paragraph:
eve are fighting for liberty,
and in the name of that same
liberty we license in this coun-
try a thing more terrible than
a German submarine, Destroy
ing more lives, and wrecking
more homes, and spreading
more sorrow in every week Of
peace than any German sub
marine in any year of war. The
Titanic goes down with its hu-
man freight by accident or
neglect, and the whole world
throbs with grief; the Lusitan-
ia goes down by the act of an
assassin, and the whole world
is stricken with horror. But if
a Titanic or a Lusitania were
sunk each week it would not
match, in tragic inhumanity,
the blow struck by a cruel
trade at the heart of our
Motherland now"

No Compromise Possible


If America must go to war it
should go to war sober. The
government may have the
right to conscript the young
men of the nation, but the
mothers and fathers and wives
of those young men have a
right to demand that they be
protected from brutalizing
drink and vile disease while
serving their country.
There must be no compro-
mise on this issue!
Demon Rum and the Scarlet
woman must be driven from

Keeping Money From the Babies

Mr.. Drinking Man, this is what you
are doing when you drink.
If you will think moment you will
realize that when you drink, you can
not earn SO large an income. and a
good share of what you earn goes for
alcohol.
Down in your heart, you want the
babies to have neat clothes and good
food, to have pleasure and to be well
educated, and you would like to leave
them enough property to provide
against want; but when you drink,
you cannot care for them as you wish,
for the money goes to others.
Open your heart to your own ba.
es. Quit drinking for their sake.
