Il the Kaiser Making
the World His Enemy To
Escape Wrath AT Home?

Have the aristocrats Of Germany, foiled
In their dream Of world power, declared
war against civilization that they may
supease the wrath Of a disilIusioned and
defeated people by pleading inability to
contend against world in arms?
As the hopelessness Of the German
cause has become more and more pro
nounced, political observers in increasing
numbers have predicted that the Hohen-
xoIlern militarists would seize upon this
avenue of escape from their failure 70
make good their promises TO the German
people.
And now comes Count 0kuma, Japan
csc statesman with the prediction that
the entry into the war Of the United
States means the early surrender OF Ger
many.
For years the militarists have deluded
their people with talk Of deutschland
uber allies; of a place in the sun to be
won only by the sword; of a Germanized
universe whose guiding light should be
the 'kultur" of the Teutonic SavantS.
They may well fear TO offer their peo-
ole in lieu Of these golden dreams, an I'M
poyerished country, decimated popula-
ton and the opprobrium of civilization.
They cannot afford to confess defeat
by those nations whom they so confident
ly set out to ravage that Germany might
feed upon their destruction.
They may well welcome the oppor-
tunity TO say I'VE have fought the good
fight; we have done our best, but We can
not by force of arms subdue an embattied

Despair
~ Or. FRANK CRANE
copyright. 1915. by Frank Crane)

Kindly give me your advice what |
should do" writes correspondent
When | came to America | was about
ten years old, my parents dead. was
not able to go TO school. and now that
am older find out that life is not worth
anything to me without education. After
all these wasted years | am trying TO
study. but il seems to me | haven't any
brain TO study. | am so very tired of
the struggle that have decided to end
my life, and | am sure you will agree
with me. You know very well person
without education is not worth anything.
1t is not my fault, for was compelled to
go to work and struggle till this very day.
| was born on Friday the 18th"
| give this letter exactly as it is writ
ten with a few verbal corrections. Il
presents. very real problem.
IL is the problem of despair, and is pc
culiarly difficult and distressing.
Despair is collapse of the ego, a par
alysis of the will, failure of the vital
force. II is as hard to tell victim of
despair what TO do as it is for physician
to prescribe for a patient whose heart
has given out.
Suicide presupposes insanity, for the
last instinct of the mind is the desire to
live.
All we can do is 10 recognize the APP
proaches to despair, take them in time
and endeavor to correct them. These
approaches are as follows:
l. Fear. Any kind of fear strikes at
the center of life, tends 10 dissolve the
moral force and 10 -derange- the reason
All forms of fear, including worry, appre-
nension. superstition (such as indicated
in the above letter by the reference TO
Friday the l3th), should be vigorously
combated. Courage is the universal cure
Of souls
2. Self-contempt. Resist all thoughts
that make you despise yourself. Assert
yourself; assert your right TO live, to-
succeed to be happy. Self-pity is the
peculiar poison Of the devil. Never give
way to it. Don't think failure. Fight
the good fight to the last ditch.
3. Gloomy and morbid fancies When
these come 10 YOU shake them off. get
out and get busy. Don't read pessimistic
books. Don't listen TO doleful people.
Resist the shadows Keep in the sun
light.
4. Depressing surroundings. Get.
away from them. To do SO may imply.
losing money. or station in life, orr
friends, but better lose these than life
itself. Go where there is cheer and,
health and brightness, il it costs you all
you own in the world.
5. Words. Don't talk failure, gloom
disappointment, or darkness. Words re-
act upon you Talk hope. success, victory
Affirm God Affirm your own soul
Affirm joy Talk energy, net weakness
Every human being has TO fight more
or less against the forces OF disintegra
ton within him. Despair is the enemy
of all mankind II is the devils other'
name. Let us struggle against it day
and night.
We are all little crazy; let us cheer
one another up as best We can.
As the Spanards says,
De medco. po"ta loco N
Todos tonemos un POGO.
