vent ingress of the moths. In these
packages can be placed such repel-
Tents as tobacco dust, camphoE

Articles in daily or weekly use, and
apartments frequently aired and swept

The New Republic: Mr.. Roosevelt's
warning that we must not fight dol
lar war; needs to be supplemented by
the warning that we must not fight a
sentimental war. nor superfluous war,
nor catch-phrase war, nor a war of
empty gestures. The first business be-
fore US is so clear that it is mere con-
fusion of thought to label it with some
moralists phrase. The United States
must insure the communications to
France and England. We can raise
armies and make munitions without
end-if they cannot be transported to
Europe they are dead loss. This is
what Germany is counting upon. She
believes quite correctly that If she can
destroy the worlds shipping faster
than 1t can be built, it doesn't matter
how many new enemies there are over
seas. Germany could ask nothing bet
ter of US than that we should turn our
attention from the shipping question,
on the theoretical ground that it wasn't
heroic. We couldn't make worse ex-
hibition of ourselves than to forget the
simple commonsense of the situation,
and lose interest in the intensely pro-
sale but absolutely fundamental need
for a vast supply of ships. Only if the
submarine is checked can Americas
power be used. If the Atlantic high
way is blockaded the allies are cut
from their ultimate base of supplies.
With that highway open the chances
of German victory are ended.

Halls Wedding of the Winds waltz,

A NATURALIZED PATRIOT.
BY Rudolph Blankenburg, Former
Mayor of Philadelphia.

Rudolph Blankenburg, who was
mayor of Philadelphia 1912-16, was
born in Germany and came to this
country in 1865 when % years old. He
has been prominent as a manufacturer
and in the public affairs of Philadel-
phia, and Is an important citizen. Now
that the United States is ready to
war with his native land Mr.. Blank
enburg has felt moved to issue a
statement directed particularly. to cit
liens of German birth: r
The president has spoken. Congress
is about to declare a state of war be-
tween our country and the German
empirei E
In this hour of stress and strife it
behooves all citizens of German birth
or descent to declare their unfiinch-
ing allegiance to the country of their
adoption and to show by word and
deed that they are true and unfalter-
ing Americans. Deeply distressed as
we are that the century old friendly re-
lations between the fatherland and
our great republic have been severed,
much as we deplore the circumstances
that have led to this unavoidable step.
our duty is plain. We have sworn
troth to the flag and we shall follow
the flag, ready to do our duty.
We sought home in the new world
and found it. We were invited and
welcomed under the Declaration of In
dependence, under the constitution and
under laws that assure us equal rights
with those who had come before u.s..
Now let us show that we are worthy
of this high privilege, that we are
worthy OF American citizenship, the
priceless boon of mankind
On attaining citizenship we fore
swore fealty to the potentate under
whose scepter we were born, feaIty
which we disowned, for we abhorred
being slavish subjects of king or
prince when liberty beckoned us from
beyond the sea and offered us equality
among all men. This, therefore, is our
home, the country of our choice; to it's
honor and defense we pledge our all.
We still love the country of our
origin, we cherish the old fireside, the
ties of affection and friendship that
bind us to family and home. We hope
and pray that ere long peace shall
return and that good will take the
place of enmfty and contention in this
war-ridden world. BY cordial co-op-
Grafton on the part of all this happy
hour will be FASTENED.
To our president and to our common
country we send greetings. Our acts
will show how we condemn and scorn
the "hyphen" so unjustly bestowed
upon us as a class. We are not Ger
man Americans, but Americans of
German birth or descent and as Amer
leans we shall live and, IL need be, die.

NOT A FALSE NOTE.

New York Mail: Fronting Dfscayne
bay at Miami, Fla, one Of our great
millionaires has built a palace that
cost 100000 and then. to furnish 1t
and to beautify the grounds about he
spent 81, 600, 900 more. 1t Is fashioned on
the style of the villa of the Rezzincos
family, who were great in the days OF
the glory of Venice. In the building OF
the Florida palace 1000 men were en-
ployed, and to add to its splendor art
collectors spent four years in the gall
leries Of Italy. One who has seen. the
palace says:
Antiques that bark back to the
days Of naughty Greece and in
solent Rome, long before the
Christian era, are some Of the
priceless treasures. The furniture
runs into the hundreds of thou
sands (of dollars). Chairs on which
rested the history famed doges
or the Venetian families Of power
long passed away are scattered
here and there. Rich tapestries
that seem like dreams Of the Ara
bian Nights are hung In the vari-
Gus rooms in luxurious careless
ness. = Not a false not has
been struck. &c"
Ten million dollars for the winter
home for one man!
And not a false note struck!
How insolent it would be for man
with ten children, and whose home,
winter and summer, spring and fall,
was a few rooms in a. crowded tene-
ment, to think otherwise!

Philadelphia Public Ledger: Two

window, and finally appealed to the
brakeman. Ill
''If that window remains open shall
catch my death of cold,i objected one,
to which the other promptly replied:
IF 1t is closed, 1 shall smother to
DEATH"

perplexity, until an old gentleman sit
ting nearby proposed:
"Open the window until one freezes
to death, and then close it until the
other smothers to death, and the rest
of US can finish our journey in peace"
