Have you bought that Liberty bond yet?

In any event, buy one or several bonds!

a blow at autocracy. Every bond bought

ROTARIANS UNDERTAKE GOOD
CAUSE.

tits peculiarly appropriate that the local
Rotary Club should devote itself to raising
money for the \. NJ. c. \, which is doing
such a great work for the welfare of our
soldiers and sailors.
Wherever Our flag goes, there will be
found a branch of the y. ~ c. A., giving
the men that contact with home and the
ideals of civic life that is so necessary to
maintaining high morale in the army.
AS the war will bring out the innate
strength Of men, so the Y. NJ c. \. will
preserve their rcfnements.
Three million dollars is the sum that is
estimated as necessary for the work. This
will be raised by popular subscriptions and
by benefits OF various characters through
out the country. Pensacola's allotment is
put at $1,000, and this sum our Rotary
club has volunteered to raise.
Honor to the enthusiasm with which the
mission is accepted.

All these developments are certain
to have an important influence upon
the German Socialists. They are the
real democrats of Germany. They
have the vision Of liberal Germany,

government 1t will be because the
Chancellor is willing to pledge and be-
gin reforms. The sudden appearance
of Won Bethmann-Houweg in tho

Outside of Berlin the Reichstag is

There is another big difference be-

true, were ripe for revolutions. But in

impossible for almighty Germany" to
continue the war. Therefore the Chan
cellor may be expected to promise the
German Socialists extensive reforms
in return for their support.
Materials Lacking
The German people lack a militant
leader. No man with influence and
the confidence Of the public is willing
to take chance in starting a revo-
luton. Philip Scheidemann, the pow
erful Socialist member of the Reichs-
tag, could lead revolt against the
Hohenzollerns. but he will do so only
when he is convinced he can succeed.
Unlike Russia, Germany has no "Du-
ma party" and no political organiza-
ton which is prepared to lead. The
Kaiser and the Chancellor know this.
They know, too, that their peace note
of last December and the Entente re-
ply to President Wilson solidified Ger
many's political organization and con-
vinced the people that the govern
ment was waging defensive war"
A revolution in Germany at this time
is not probable unless it begins in
Austria-Hungary. If the people over
throw the Hohenzollern dynasty they
would do so with one purpose-to
make peace. While the people long
