put OUT THE FIRE

The Committee on Public Informa-
ton has issued the following, writ
ten by Meredith Nicholson:
Civilization may be likened to a
house where family live in comfort
and ease and the enjoyment of the
privileges and security that repre-
sent thousands of years of labor.
When house is on fire it be-
comes the instant duty Of the neigh
bors and of the government imm edi-
ately responsible for the protection
of the householder to render aid
not today or tomorrow-but the mo-
ment the flames become visible and it
is known that the home and its in
mates are threatened.
House on fire, We hear cries in
the street the rattle and jar Of the
engines and hose carts as they hurry
to the scene of conflagration. The
fire is spreading; not one but hun
dred homes are threatened!
When the Kaiser began his war for
world domination he applied a torch
70 that House of Civilization | have
yisuaIfzed as home, the repository
Of every good and perfect gift that
has been won for humanity, the very
freedom that is its foundation, and
the peace that is its corner stone.
The Kaiser is mad incendiary
He stole upon the House OF CiVlllza-
tion in the night and tossed burn
ing brand through on open window.
Like thief who applies a match to
the rear of a house to stampede the
inmates and distract their attention
while he plumbers, the Kaiser expect
ed TO satisfy long-pondered
scheme of robbery and conquest Civ
i1;zation slept the sleep Of peace to
awaken in terror

Io,ns in his malign purposes, has re-
sortad TO every conceivable atrocity

TIGHT-WAD PATRIOTS

AS we get further into the war,
the need for every one in the nation
to take hold and help becomes more
pressing. Battles are not won alone
by the armies in the field. If the
armies are to fight we'll, they must
have guns and ammunition, clothing
and food, and all the machinery Of
war The people at home must pro-
vide money for those activities which
can be carried out alone by the gov
eminent. This money must be fur
nished either by lending to the gov
eminent on it's bonds, or by paying
it outright in the form of taxes.
In addition to furnishing the gov
eminent the means for carrying on
strictly government activities, we
must voluntarily give money to carry
on certain forms of war work which
can be better handled by voluntary
organizations of people than by the
government; for example, army Y.
NJ c. A. work and the Red Cross
work. The army Y. NJ. c. A, work is
just as necessary as the machinery OF
war and the food and clothing 1t
is the one way by which our boys can
be kept up to fighting trim. 1t gives
them home, club, place to gath
er for friendly intercourse, and
place for recreatiOn-eyerything Of
this sort which tends to keep their
minds occupied and their bodies
healthful, and helps to safeguard
them from things which undermine
their ability as soldiers. The Red
Cross, in addition to its work among
suffering civilians, helps to provide
needed articles of clothing which the
government does not furnish, and
helps to look after the wounded.
Our nation has responded SPLEEN
didly, both by lending money on gov
eminent bonds and by giving to the
Red Cross and the army Y. NJ, c. A.
Put scattered throughout the country
are large numbers of people who
have not as yet done their share in
this work, people who are able to
help Some of them sympathize
with the enemy instead of this ma
ton, but a larger nun Der are simply
"tight-wad patriots Their dollars
are so big in their eyes that they can
not see anything else. They do not
seem to understand that this country
is in war-a costly, bloody war.
They do not seem to realize that we
are fighting against a nation whose
people have been organizing for war
for more than generation, and
every member of which is working
for its success. We can not hope to
win against a nation of that sort I'M
less we also organize, and unless all
of our people do what they can best
do. Neither do these tight-wad
patriots seems to realize that this is
just as much their fight as their
neighbors' fight They would like to

RED CROSSES OR WOODEN
CROSSES

DO you prefer to have a Red Cross
IN your window, or a wooden cross
over the grave of some American sol
der boy in France?
That is a question which every
american citizen must answer. The
more Red Crosses there are in the
windows of the homes of the United
Sates, the fewer wooden crosses
mere will be to mark the last resting
PAGES OF our soEs along the firing
me. A Red Cross in the window of
nome means that the family resid-
ing there is interested in seeing that
our sick and wounded soldiers re-
eeiVe every possible care and atten-
uoh so as to reduce the number OF
fatalities to the lowest possible min
mum. The absence of the Red Cross
service flag from the window of any
nome proves that the family living
mere does not take a dollars worth
interest in preserving the health
ana lives of the boys who are going
INTO the trenches to protect our flag,
our institutions and our right to live
at peace with the world.
AS the Red Cross is the emblem of
ilie and hope, the wooden cross is
me emblem of death and sorrow
me Red Cross button and the Red
Vross flag are the evidence of a will
eaghess to give time and money to
provide safety and comfort for our
uelenders and charity to our wound
W enemies. The failure to wear the
aed Cross button or to display a Red
OFoss flag is the evidence either OF
Il greater love for money than for
humanity, or of a lack of loyalty to
'nls government and to the boys who
IRE fighting for it.
Whoever fails to place a Red
0foss in his window is helping to

There are things in the humblest

without a struggle When the house
gets afire the inmates spring to pro

We of America are in this war to
