Sdpping For Germany

IS "A I'D and comfort" can be given to the enemy
"A not only by conscious traitors, but also
by the unconscious tools Of aStute enemies, and
even by people who regard themselves as dealists
and martyrs, points out the editor of The Outlook,
who says Whatever their intent may be, they
are public enemies if they give strength to the
common foe or weaken resistance to him. If a
troop of invaders have lost their way, the man
who serves as their guide may do so because he
feels sorry for anybody who is lost, but though
he may act out OF what he regards as humanita-
rianism, he is serving the forces of the enemy as
truly as if he were spy in their employ. Ger
many is carrying on sapping and mining opera
tons in this country. She is working, not in its
soil, but in the minds of its people Those who
help on the work that Germany is doing are serv-
ing Germany's cause, and, whether they know it
or not, are doing what they can to bring defeat to
America and America free institutions
There are three chief ways of helping Germany
on American soil:
l. To make the issues OF the war seem confused,
sordid or foreign to the interests of the Ameri-
can people.
2 To create or foster the feeling that America
and her friends cannot win and that Germany and
her satellites are too strong to be beaten
g. To arouse in the minds of Americans suspi-
cion and distrust of our allies, and thus to bring
about disunion. T..
Apply these tests to what people saw to what
newspapers print, to what organizations do and i'm
most cases you will be able to separate the Ioyal
from the disloyal and seditious.

flag. common to all Christian na- Tions that claim the reverence of every civilized peoplc--a white flag of truce emhlazoned wth a blood red cross. It is a sign of mercy to the sick and wounded that waves over hospitals or ambulance in peace or war
 Some of our workers may be at a loss for the reason Of this sign Why the Red Cross? And why the al most universal use of the symbol? Tn the middle of the sixteenth century it was revived. for it had been used formerly as the distinctive sign of the crusader. and the military orders Of the church had made use of it more or less as badge.
 It is related the mother of St. Camillus de Lellis that she dreamed she had a child whose breast was marked with a red cross. The vision troubled her. She could not under stand it, and it seemed pottent of woe. The Lady Camilla died while her child was still boy, and anything but a saint. It was years later, when he had become converted, that he set out to found his order. "The Min isters of the Sick" taking for the
 distinctive badge of the new organ ization the Red Cross that his mother had behoden in a vision From it's use by the hospitals of St Camillus it came to be employed as universal sign whenever the sick were to be cared for, whether they were at the Hospitals of the Ministers of the
 Sick, or in others.
 So the nations of the world are in- debted to the church for the flag that flies over the field hospital or ambu-
 lance party, and the badges which nurses, doctors and stretcher- bearers carry in time of war, which are sup posed to protect them from deliber- ate attack by civilized enemy.

There was argument. the mayor de- claring, "You said they were damned lies" Dr. Taylor retorted, according to MT. Cubage, eff you say said they were damned lies,' then you're a damned liar" and advanced upon the mayor in a threatening manner.
 The professor says the doctor tried to get in the first blow, but was un- successful, the mayor counterng with a stiff rght.

Two years later all the hospitals and
charitable institutions under ecclesi-
astical authority or managed by re-
ligious corporations were secularized
and placed under the immediate SUI
pervision of the civil authorities. This
law was strengthened by an act Of
1904, which prohibited priests or re-
ligious orders from being directors,
administrators or even patrons of any
charity.
The whole history of constitutional
government in Mexico was a syste-
matized. effort to wipe out of the
country every vestige of religion. In
spite of this we hear the charge that
the Catholic church is responsible for
the unhappy conditions in MexicoA
Now a sacreligious bandit completes
the work Of infamy. After sacking
churches, looting converts, torturing
and killing priests, debauching nuns,
forgetting every instinct of decency
and morality, the followers Of Car

continue the work, and they call their
