HOME STUDY COURSE.

Mrs. E, E. Moseley has just cont pleted home study course in short
 hand. The work is taken up lesson by lesson and taught just as if the pupil were present in person. These lessons have been carefully worked out. For four years a record has
 been made of the different questions asked by students, and as the work progresses confidence has grown with it to the extent that Mrs. Moseley does not expect to do any more class work, but devote her entire time to this new method of teaching, believing 1mplic- itly that any pupil can learn short hand more thoroughly and in a short CT space of time, than by the old method of attending class, for it is to get together any number of pupils in a class who will pro- gress with the same rapidity. A limit ed number of copies will be ready by September 1st, and others will be completed as soon as possible. The price of this course is $12.00. This includes text books and shorthand dic- tionary.

have shown themselves to be good gang fighters, have shown lack of stomach for "in fighting" with the bayonet When the allied soldiers with bayonets flashing draw near, the German soldier is keen to put his hands into the air and yell "kam- erad" If the allies rained bombs on German cities behind the lines wouldn't the German civilian, made of the same clay as the German sol dier, put his hands into the air and yell "kamerad?"
 If he did this the effect on his government would be wonderful, for the government is probably even more about the morale of the civilians back of the line than about the morale of the soldiers in the line.

AIR RAIDS ON GERM AN CITIES.

Many tons of bombs have been dropped on war plants and stores of munitions in Germany recently, four German cities having been visited by British airmen within the past few days.
 The increasing number of raids by allied airmen brings forward the ques- tion of the advisability of air raids on the so-called "open cities of Ger many. There are people who argue that the allies cannot afford to de- scend to the brutality of the Germans merely to be revenged on the Ger mans.
 There may be some merit in this view, but also there is merit in the view which urges raids on German cities by allied airmen as an impor- tant war measure. Frightfulness is a child of the German brain. The German leaders are no different form the average German. If the German leaders who imposed the policy of frightfulness on the world thought it would be effective the German peo- pie, having the same kind of mind thought the same way. If frightful- ness appealed to the German people as war policy that would be fruit ful of success because it would scare Germany's enemies into submission tAen there is reason to believe that Germany, put at the receiving end of a policy of frightfulness, would be terrorized into submission. Frightful- ness failed outside Of Germany, but it might win within Germany.

Maximilian Harden Again Attacks Prussian Policy
 of Domination.

Washington. Aug. 15.-Another violent attack on Prussian policy, with a warning of the storm brewing in Russia and frank tribute to Brit ish and American soldiers fighting for their ideals, has just been published in the Zunkunft by Maximilian Har- den, the free-spoken German editor An official dispatch from France to- day quotes extracts from the article, commenting particularly upon the ac- tion of the German censors in permit ting it to appear.
 "At the moment when the fire of Slavic hatred coming from four corn CTS of Russia is developing into one single immense flame," Harden asked, "how can our rulers think of finding supporters for thrones and supplying candidates for them? Are our rulers desirous of supporting the plans of the adversary and uniting in one sin gle fire all the sparkling flames which are burning or smouldering between Vladivostok and Sebastopol; between Murmansk ad Fiume?"
 Harden declared the soul of mod ern Germany is dominated by the idea of bondage, is summed up in down on your knees."
 "You think that the British and Americans are such as the conserva- tive papers represent them," he wrote. "They have proved themselves to be very different on the Yser, at Arras and at Dormans. They have shed the best of their blood, spent hundreds of thousands without dreams of conquest simply for their ideals. Does this in any way correspond to the picture that you have drawn of them?''

PATRIOTICALLY OPTIMISTIC.

Jason Rogers, published of the New York Globe, in an advertisement, seeks to rally business men to great CT efforts, just as the nation is put ting forth greater efforts to defeat the Huns.
 Some business men are complaining at and standing in fear of what con- gress contemplates in the way of assessing more taxes and regulating industry and business for the best in- terests of the nation relative to push ing war plans.
 'We know" says MT. Rogers, "that some enterprises will be temper arily put out of business and others seriously hampered, but in the main the world will keep going forward. American business essential to the morale of our people behind the men in the army must be maintained and go on.
 American business will go ahead, continued to plant the seed for fu- ture crops, and come up smiling no matter what congress tried to do."
 Industry and business can no more shirk it's new responsibility than can the clerk who has been turned into a soldier shirk his responsibility on the field of battle. No one class of men or enterprise can bear the brunt of war. Every factor in commerce and industry and labor must bear it's share. The army alone cannot deefat the Germans.
 The business man who seeks to cur tail his business in an effort to evade taxation is as much of stacker as the man who seeks to evade army ser vice, if not more so.
