THE PRESIDENTS DEFINITION
OF GERMANISM

Innumerable articles and many
books have been written to define
"Germanism" and show to the world
what ii means.
IN his message to congress Deem
Der President Wilson defines It as
follows:
This intolerable Thing OF which
the masters of Germany have shown
us the ugly face, this menace of COM
bined intrigue and force which we
now see so clearly as the German
power, a Thing without conscience or
honor or capacity for covenanted
peace"
This Thing must be crushed, and If
not truly brought to an end. at least
shut out from the friendly intercourse
of the nations, says the president, and
it is only when this Thing and its
power are indeed defeated that the
time can come when we can discuss
peace with the German people.

RED CROSS SEAL SALES
REACH HUGE AMOUNT

WASHINGTON, Dec. 26.-From a
sale of $1,000 to sales of 100000 is
the history from start to present Of
that little Red Cross Christmas seal
which you casually stick on all your
mail this time of the year.
Now. with all the world scared in
the flames of war, the history of the
progress of Red Cross Christmas
seals Is particularly interesting.
Originating in Norway. where the
proceeds were used to fight disease,
the idea was imported to this coun.
try by Miss Emily P. Bissell. OF Will
mington, Del. a well-known social
worker.
In 1907 Miss Bissell launched the
first campaign. with the object OF
providing funds to fight tuberculosis
and other disease.
The seals looked like Christmas,
the plan back of them was the
Christmas spirit, and people grasped
the idea with delight. They looked
good on Christmas mail, and they did
good. That year $4,000 was raised
! The American Red Cross was asked
to take over the work. After some
! hesitation. they did so. In 1908, S135,
| 900 worth OF the little stickers were
| sold II became n national institu
ton. So successful was the idea
and so useful the funds in fighting
tuberculosis, that the National Asso
citation for the study and Prevention
OF Tuberculos!s was asked 10 adopt
the work.
Last year saw 10000 900 stamps
sold The total sales for nine years
reached SI,3O0,0OO.
This year 3OO,000,0OO stamps is the
goal. The Red Cross. working with
the National Association, hopes e
raise 100000.
Most Of this money Is used in the
respective localities where II II
raised, so that 90 per cent OF tn,
money remains in the communIt,
where II was raised. The Red Cross
takes 10 per cent to cover actual ex
penses OF the campaign.

surrounding the prison. The friend
then. according to the belief Of Col
Bryan. threw q pair OF wire niDpers
over the fence and he thinks they
were used by the TWO prisoners In
cutting their way to liberty.
The gunnysacks and the pair Of nip
pers were found near where the wire
was cut. A feature In connection with
the nippers Is that they were insulat-
ed with rubber. 1t being stated that
the prisoners feared the fence was
charged with electricity.

A MEMORABLE DATE
IN CHRISTIAN HISTORY

Christmas, 1917, will be memoir
able date in Christian history because
OF the deliverance of Jerusalem from
the communicating, pestilential control
OF the Turk. For 400 years Turkey
has held undisputed possession OF the

polluted by the Mosiem presence. 1t
was conquered by the Arabian Caliph
Omar in the year 636 A. D., and con-
tinued in Moslem hands ever since

the observance o fthe Saviour's natal
day this year will derive a new Joy

OF the Turk from the Holy Land-not
so much because the Turk is nom
Christian as because he is cruel,
treacherous and repulsive. To many
Christian people his downfall will be
as a promise from above OF the rout
OF all our enemies in this war.
Believing as we do that our cause
is righteous, we cannot lack faith in
it's ultimate triumph. AS the Turks
are driven out of Jerusalem, so will
the allies of the Turks be driven out
Of France and Belgium and Italy. To
doubt that is to deny that right and
justice shall prevail. And so. with
the world soaked with the blood OF
men who have fought and died in the
cause OF liberty, we may rejoice this
Christmas Day as we have not had the
heart to rejoice in three years. The
Turks accursed grasp has been struck
from the Holy Land. 1t is a blow at
Germany and Austria which. them
selves protesting Christianity, have
entered into league with the enemies
OF Christ and approved If they have
not actually taken part in Moslem out.

guilty partners OF Turkey may well
tremble. Their turn is coming next
