STOPPING THE WAR.

STOPPING THE WAR. - Now,
you all wonder why I suggest stop
ping the war. Well, I believe in all
wars and struggles because they
mean progress, health, vigoT, new
vitality and exercise.
This war is going to be the best
thing for America that ever hap
pened. 1t will cement us all by a
unity to one flag out of all this con-
glOmerate mess we have been trying
so hard to assimiIate. 1t will slim
ulate education, cooperation, COM
petition, natiOnalism, thought and
action.
Farming and producing will no
longer be subjects of shame and dis
grace. Suffering brings out charac-
ter Our elbows now touch our
neighbOTs in sympathy - in one
cause. But why l suggest a method
of ending the war is because some
might say: You are such a human
itarian and if you knew how to stop
it, why did you not tell u.s." So here
goes:

worship, are very desirable people.
We know that of the 100000 Amer
lean by-prOdUcts known as tramps,
hObOes, lOafers, ETC., there is not a
lazy German among them. We know
the Germans everywhere as prOduc-
eTs, workers and honest.
They often commit suicide when
they fear they can't pay their honest
debts. Their children learn to work
and behave. 1t is a known fact that
there are four able-bOdied women in
England to one able-bOdied man, and
in three years more England may
nave ten to one Women will soon
be running around like King Richard,
who said: My kingdom for a horse"
Women will soon say, My kingdom
for man." In France there are five
