Germany's Latest Move

Washington dispatches printed
in the Thursday morning papers
said that Germany had declared
unrestricted submarine warfare,
and the declaration was featured
with big headlines by all the lead
ing American newspapers.
A starvation blockade of Eng
land, the like of which the world
never has seen, was announced to
the world in notes delivered to
American Ambassador Gerard in
Berlin and to the state department
by Count Won Bernstorff.
Thus begins the long-feared
campaign of ruthlessness, con-
ceived by Won Hindenburg, on a
magnitude never even contemplated
by Won Tirpitz.
Again the United States faces
severance of diplomatic relations
with Germany with all it's eventual
possibilities. President Wilson'S S
repeated warnings of "a world
afre" and Sec1etary Lansing's
verge Of war" statement are be-
ing recalled with feelings of appre-
hension and misgiving.
Germany's action is the super
crisis of all those that have stirred
the American government in two
and half years of world war.
The president must now decide
what shall be the course of the
United States.

To Enter the Army

Alva Englehart came down from
Cameron Tuesday and met his
sister, Miss Marguerite, who was
returning from attending the we'd
ding of their brother, Lieutenant
Englehart, in the east, and to-
gether they spent Wednesday here
visiting relatives and friends.
Alva is also to enter the army. He
took examination last October and
a week ago was advised that he had
passed and was entitled to enter
the service as second lieutenant in
the coast artillery. He has not
yet been instructed to report for
duty. Here's another Laclede boy
who will make good. He is a son
of Mr.. and Mrs. II. F. Englehart
and was born on a farm just south
of town, the family removing to
Cameron three years ago that the
children might attend Wesleyan
college,

Change in Weather

The spring like weather that had
prevailed for several days-entire-
ly too warm for this season of the
year-got a terrible jolt when the
wind shifted to the north Wednes-
day morning and by night was
blowing a perfect gale, sending the
mercury to ten below by Thursday
morning. 1t was a big change in
temperature, a sudden change that
is not only uncomfortable but
injurious to health.
