PLAY
DESPITE WEATHER

Threatening weather and damp
grounds did not force the postpone
ment of yesterdays game in the Twi-
light league, but it did effect the attend
ance. The playing teams were the
Tampa Nuggets and Shop Boys, the lat
ter losing in a score of 3 to L. One OF
the real features OF these afternoon
games is the presence Of Joe Burke,
who is on the city police force. but
who takes the afternoons off at the
ball ground when his police watch so
permits.
William Lurton umpired yesterdays
game very satisfactory. The game,
which went for the customary seven
innings was won in the first when
three men went over the plate The
lone score of the Shop Boys was in
the fifth inning.
Marines and Company meet this
afternoon.

GERMANY'S LESSON

If anything were needed to prove the mettle
of American men, that need has been met in the
wonderful stimulation which has been given re-
cruiting in the navy, since the appearance of
German submarines off the Atlantic coast
This, together with the splendid exploits of
the marines in France has caused record enlist
ments, enlistments in the naval reserves for the
first week in June totalling more than fourteen
hundred thousand, the enlisted personnel now
standing at more than four hundred and fftv
thousand.
If the German miltarists had sought to
find some means of arousing the American people
to the height of patriotic fervor and, through
these means, to thrill the nation with sense of
loep and abiding loyalty, they could have devised
The Pensacola journal. (Pensacola, Fla.) 1898-1985, 1918-06-27

no better way than that chosen by them In their
raid on the American coast.
Slowly it is being borne home to the German
people that this is United country; slowly the
realization is being forced upon them that not
only the American born but that the great mass
of foreign born in the United States will pledge
,hci- loyalty to the flag with every throb of the
heart and every beat of the pulse.
Every time the German pirates take an
American life, thousands of other Americans will
rise up to do vengeance for the soul that is called
to answer the roll call of Liberty.
The kaiser is driving nails in his own coffin.

THE FIRST STEP

There was Sultan in the years gone by, as
recorded by Sadi, the great Persian philosopher
who said that if he took an apple from the
peasants orchard his guards would tear up the
tree by the roots. This is exactly the German
position TODAY. as exemplified by that autocratic
minority of the German people which constltu-
ties allowing for commercial interests allied by
force or interest, the dominating party in Ger
many, says William Peter Hamilton, in the Wall
Street Journal.
'eWhen we buy War Savings Stamp (and, as
the French say, it is always the first step which
counts we are driving into the German some
thing which is even better than bullets. We
are showing him that behind the troops of the
United States now engaged on the French front
there is the whole will and purpose of the Amer
lean people.
when you buy War Savings Stamp do you
realize that you are taking up your partnership
in the United States Government? You are not
a subject like the German conscript, driven to
death with an officer behind him prepared to
empty an automatic pistol into his body If ne
falters. You a citizen. You are concerned
directly and individually, in the basic doctrine
of this country that shall be free and shall
dictate their own form of government.
"And if you are partner in the Government
you should realize that partnership carries re-
sponsibiities as well as rights. All you have you
owe to the organized Government under which
you live. To ask you to give small part of the
profits or even of the capital you derive from
that extraordinary gift of freedom is to require
less than your citizenship involves. There is no
gift you can make which can compensate for the
highly organized state of freedom wherein you
and your wife and your little children are free
from outrage and spoation
How small a thing it is to buy War Savings
Stamp and how much it is. You thereby seal
your partnership in your Government; you
pledge with your means however small they are
your allegiance to what is perhaps the greatest
constitutional Government the world has ever
seen. You are a citizen of the United States and
the President is no more. When you contribute
your savings by means of War Savings Stamps
you proudly announce that fact, and all the rest
of us recognize you brother.
"You are not asked to give something out
of your earnings a charitable contribution.
You are asked to invest at an interest return
no savings bank can venture to offer, in the best
secured investment which the world presents to-
day. If the credit of Uncle Sam is not good then
nothing in the world is good, and the money in
your pocket, which would have made bullets for
your brothers fighting at the front is not worth
pinch of ashes. If you can adduce to yourself
a single reason for not buying War Savings
Stamps to the limit of your means, however
small, you not that hundred per cent Amer
lean the rest of us believe you to be-
