business Is to help this nation and to
keep It one nation and to see that 1t
does not become a polyglot boarding
house. would send all men who
think primarily of the old country
back to II. And l should like to send
along with them some Of our native
born Americans.
"Since we want to do Germany as
much harm as possible, should like
to give her Senator La Toilette to be
used in the reichstag.
Secondly, we must put this war
through and with no end in view save
a complete and overwhelming victory.
The only way to gain Germany's re-
spect is through fear. An incon-
elusive peace would simply mean that
we should have to fight it all over
again.
I'VE want to fight abroad with our
allies so that we shall not have to
fight at home without any allies. Our
duty is to take over our share OF the
burden which England and France
have borne for three and half years.
Third. we must prepare perma-
nently. Germany has been at war
with us since the German note Of
January 81 and that we are able to
prepare now is due solely to the fact
that the armies and navies OF France
and England have shielded our lazy
strength. Don't let us have to repeat
the present experience.
ut is up to you men to see that
when this war is over the country
does not sink back into unprepared.

His statement that the only safe
permanent policy was to provide uni
versal obligatory military training for
every young man and to deny the vote
TO each until he was able to present a
certificate showing that he had com
pleted his military service. was greet
ed with tremendous applause by the
1000 officers.
Referring to the pacifists, Colonel
Roosevelt vigorously asserted that al
such, together with the conscientious
directors. like the professional anar
chists, should be excluded from thu
country in the future.

RED CROSS
CHRISTMAS CHEER

The people Of the United States are
approaching the Christmas holidays
under conditions this country never
has seen before; and, moreover II II
probable that this year we shall not
experience our most sorrowful Christ
mas while this world war RACES.
With the thought of the nation
dwelling largely on the infinite suffer.
ing abroad. on the certainty that our
own flesh and blood will soon be en-
during its full share of that suffering
and on the absence from nome of hun
dreds Of thousands of dear ones.
Christmas, 1917, will be n war Christ,
mas.
Into this somber outlook the Red
Cross Is seeking to bring something of
cheer. In n campaign lasting from
December 15 till Christmas Eve II will
ask for 10000 600 new members. II
will urge these 100000 to become
"Red Cross Christmas recruits, that
they may enable the Red Cross to
tighten the burden our army and navy
and those OF our allies are called npon
10 bear.
This cooperation with the Red Cross
is real service of which we may all be
proud. And that this service. when
rendered by one. mag be known to his
neighbor, the Red Cross will urge each
old and each new member TO display
at his home Red Cross service flag
on which each red cross stands for a
member.
The hundreds OF thousands Of these
flags already being shown by old mem.
bers will swell into millions before
Christmas, each Gag and each little
cross bearing testimony that some
ones Christmas bl1 been made hap.
pier for himself or herself happier for
our own boys and hsppIer for the sol.
diers Of our allies.
Let us all help 10 make this a Red
Cross which is another
way Of saying: Let Ne make Il the
happ.est Christmas possible with the
war clouds hanging low.
