KAISER COMPARED ID A MAD
 |NCEND|ARy

The Committee on Public Informa- tion issues the following written by Meredith Nicholson:
 Civilization may be likened to house where a family live in comfort and ease and the enjoyment of the privileges and security that repre- sent thousands of years of labor.
 When a house is on fire it becomes the instant duty of the neighbors and of the government immediately re- sponsible for the protection of the householder to render aid-not to- day or tomorrow, but the moment the flames become visible and it is known that the home and it's inmates are threatened.
 House on fire, We hear cries in the street, the rattle and jar of the engines and hose carts as they hurry to the scene of conf1a grafton. The fire is spreading; not one but hun dred homes are threatened.
 Torch to Civilizations House
 When the Kaiser began his war for world domination he applied torch to that House of Civilization l have visualized as home, the repository of every good and perfect gift that has been won for humanity, the very freedom that is it's foundation, and the peace that is it's corner stone.
 The Kaiser is mad incendiary.

He stole upon the House of Civiliza- tionn in the night and tossed burn ing brand through an open window. Like a thief who applies match to the rear of a house to stampede the inmates and distract their attention while he plunders, the Kaiser expect ed to satisfy -longpondered scheme of robbery and conquest. Civilization slept the sleep of peace to awake in terror.
 The Kaiseris army. perfected through years of stern training to aid the pyromaniac lord of the Hohenzol- lerns in his malign purposes, has re sorted to every conceivable atrocity to terroize civilization-not merely to destroy it's house but to murder the inmates or reserve them for a
 more hideous fate than death. When we say that this is a war to make he world a safe place for de-
 mocracy, we mean also that it is to
 preserve that House of Civilization in which democracy is the altar and sanctuary.
 House on fire! It is not for you and me to stand outside and say that it is only neighbors house that is ! menaced. The first German soldier WuO SCt lOOt OA .DclSIdu SUI ened your home and mine. He
 fourished his brand at the house of
 civilization in which you and I live.
 He attacked law liberty, mercy, jus tice-everything that strengthens and adorns that proud house in which we of America have lived in contentment ! and peace.
 There are things in the hum blest
 home that the owner would not lose | without a struggle. When the house
 gets afire the inmates spring to pro- tect and save those things. We America are in his war to
 protect and save the house of civili
 zation and the proud trophies that represent not only our own struggles | and sacrifices but those we inherited from sires who shed their blood for ! them.
 Put Out the Fire Quickly Put out the fire. The more quick | " we realize that it is our house that | is burning, the more quickly we shall | be free to cut away the blackened | walls and make the house habitable | and secure. We want to see the fire | men disperse, the police hustle the 1 incendiary to the lookup, and the ad- | iusters come in and settle the dam ages.
 The way to hasten this consump- tion is by aiding our firemen-our Army and Navy-in every possible
 way If we can't carry water or
 wield the ax on burning timbers, we can stand back of the men who are doing the work-our work, yours and
 mine. We can pour out our dollars to | help them. We can see that the fire | fighters are fed and clothed while i they are on the job; we can take ] care of them when they fall injured in
 our cause.
 House on fire, Civilization on firer The man who says this is not Americas war is asleep in burning
 house and does not deserve to be | saved by the splendid valorous fire
 men who are fighting to rescue him.
