The SCRATCH PAD
BY THOMAS EWING DAsNET.

Consumption was adopted, Imogen,
because President Wilson got tired of
people standing behind him.
Among the latest horrors of war
may be mentioned the Copenhagen
liar
After a bullet in the back, the
worst fate that could overtake an
American soldier is German measles.
In urging prohibition, let it be dis
tlnctly understood that we are not
trying to put the lid on the high balls
OF the national sport.
Love is represented by doves, and
1t is particularly appropriate, there
fore, that our young men should garb
themselves in khaki.
The best man in congress is Repre-
sentative Gardner, who has resigned
in order to accept the command of
military force.
With a regiment of BASEBALL players
hurting bombs at Hindenberg, it
won't be long before ne makes a home
run.
When the sweet girl graduate talks
about her reluctant feet, it is hard
to say whether she is quoting from
the we'll known poem, or whether
she is abiding to the hesitation"
If it is true that Germany is strong
er now from a military standpoint
than when she entered the war, it is
because she has been able to develop
several army divisions of ambassa-
doris, ministers and cOnsuls to the
countries that have broken with her.
To our many friends we take this
means Of explaining that the large
shout with which we startled the
country surrounding the bombproof

creation after doinSSSy sSNation duty
in this trench, did not mean that we
had touch of the sun, but was a
defiance to the food pirates, evoked
by the sprouting of another row Of
corn and beans.

No wonder the American army is
such a wonderful fighting machine.

TOO MILD.

Germany's submarine war is too mild
That's the reason why it has not been
more successful; Professor Oswald FIamm
a privy councillor of Germany, is speaking
Let not the crew OF a single~ship escape,

(Berlin).
Evidently the Moloch sacrifice of the
Lusitania has awakened an Unsuitable ap-
petite.
Germany has more than once already
fred upon crews escaping in lifeboats, so
there is nothing startling about Professor
Flamm's suggestion. The interesting point
is that a civilian, and not a war-hardened
soldier, is advocating the new horror-no
further commentary is needed.
