makes wrong right if only it contrib
utes to his selfish ambition.
When that ambition reached out
toward world control, trampling on
treaties and subjugating all rights in
Belgium, it became the unmistakeable
duty of this greatest OF all republics
to stand in with the nations who are
defending the peoples right to vote.
Say not that Civilization is set back
a hundred years." Nay, it is advanced
a thousand years if autocracy is DOOM
cd and if Imperialism shall be buried
and democracy shall become safe on
the earth"
In 1916 the United States stood al
most alone for the right of the people
for life, liberty and the pursuit of
happiness" Today with the exception
of the Central Powers-Japan is
about the only remaining imperial ma
tion-all the great nations arc free ma
tons.
1t is the bugle- call of God that has
sounded forth in America, and we are
not recreant to our Christian duty.
The cost will be great, but our peo
pie will not finch. Today we are only
in the penumbra, but the shadows will
deepen and the lists of casualties at
the front will be read with GREATNESS
interest.
But 1t is not our army alone that is
to render service; this war already
arouses' our latent patriotism; it kim
dies the fires of altruism; it bids us
repay our agc-long debt to our old
benefactor, France; it binds us to our
mother across the seas in the cause of
our common blood and our Anglo Sax
on ideals.
This is a war for human rights and
for liberty: for a lasting and eternal
peace. because a righteous peace.
The Socialists Of New York have
just sent a significant cablegram to the
Socialists of Germany, closing with the
slogan THE Kaiser must co." Amer
ica's part will be heavy but it may be
the decisive part.
And not soldiers only are to serve.
As President Wilson says: "Thc Ma
ticn is at war" You, ladies, in your
hospital work are realizing the noble
ideals of sacrifice for others. You are
giving relief as needed, never asking
the nationality. You and every true
woman and man, will learn the sweet
spirit of unsclfish love.
The war will jostle us out of our
snug content and awaken us to the
nobility of service.
The Peace Palace at The Hague will
take on new significance, far beyond
the original intent. for when we all
have done our bit" and peace shall
have come, the rule of the people shall
have become universal and Christian
ity shah be dominant on the earth.

Hot Times With the Horses ]
and Mules at Camp Reyes

The coolest place meteorologically is
the top Of the hill where reposes Camp
Reyes, the headquarters Of the End
Maine Infantry. The hottest place,
metaphorically is this same hill top.
The heated state Of affairs is caused
by that bunch Of horses and mules that
arrived fortnight ago from the West
Being Of the West western they are of
lively type. To be sure, they had
little kick-up to them on their ar
rival, but they are becoming acclimat-
ed, are eating like hungry boys and are
now showing the characteristics for
which western animals and people are
noted.
In other words, they are going some.
These three score and more horses
are riding animals. When they ar
rived, they were SO thin that riding a
rail would be as comfortable, but now
they have advanced to the first stage
of plumpness riding is really being
tried by the members of the three End
Infantry companies stationed at head
quarters as well as by many of the
officers.
1t is in the riding stunts that the
hot times are created. These horses
kick. They also buck and prance and
do all the other things that wild spir-
its from the plains are fictionalIy sup
posed to do Horseback riding can

hardly be said to be a pleasure at
Camp Keyes. 1t will be when the
horses are broken in, but until that
time comes there is many man who
is walking with limp and being ex-
cused from attendance at certain drills
which all good soldier companies are
supposed to attend.
The mules have not yet been given
chance to show up. Their time is
coming. Just at present. they are be-
ing allowed to eat all they can SO that
they may regain some Of the flesh that
was shaken off and rubbed Off in the
long trip from Texas.
Horses and mules are most COM
fortably housed. An entirely new
home has been erected for the mules
while the quarters in which the horses
find themselves are the old comfort
able ones. No deaths have occurred
from pneumonia as was feared, but
several Of the animals were lost be-
cause of the poor care they received
in transit 1t may be said, however,
that even now, before mules and horses
have got back to normal weight that
they are a handsome outfit and the
fact that each one of them has u. s."
branded on his nigh fore shoulder is
proof that they are good for the pur-
poses to which they are to be put.
