ROOsEvELTs AND HOHENzOLLERNs

r@ HEODORE ROOSEVELT has four sons in the war; Onel of the sons has been wounded One of them Quentin, may be dead The aeropane which he fought two toe reported fire and fallen behind the German lines. All Roosevels boys in dangerous service None Of them has very high military rank They out just like other American boys They take the risk as the other boys
 Roosevelt himself wanted He wanted to command at least division not permitted to because his per sona health bad and because in the opinion of the mi tary authorities lacked the necessary training that would warrant in taking charge of the lives o thousands Of the battle line.
 Roosevelt, only few years back nearly the emperor of the United States anybody permitted be under the constitution.
 William Hohenzoern emperor of Germany, has six sons Not them received scratch Williams are with medals they command great armies but they go the fighting There s<ohing to show that any of ability There they guarded by the lives of millions ordinary Germans many of whom persons of real power, and distinction
 The political organization of the Germans is lower than that ordinary beehive The bees know enough to have queen queen enough to stick to the business of providing bees who will make the honey The queen bee always concerned in keeping the other bees and healthy the queen is ost the hive is panic stricken Unless it find another queen, it will perish.
 The Germans panic stricken when anything happens to their king bee. They terribly concerned when any thing happens to the favored male progeny of their king bee
 anything threatens their the bees fight fercey to protect her, thus the bees protect themselves The Germans fight ercey than the bees to shelter the medal covered of the Kaiser and his six sons who send the Ger mans to slaughter by the million.
 The Queen bee has the hardest task in the hve but honey than enough sustain herself The rest of the honey is for the equal use of all the other bees.
 The German King bee produces nothing and his six less and takes honey out of the German hive than hun dreds of thousands of his subjects.
 The queen bee fights for her job If there is dispute be- queens the bees surround hem and accept victor for their queen The hive is sure because of this to have strong ruler The bees know that genius not hered tary.
 Kaiser never fights anybody his sons never fight body Their bodies in jeopardy. The German system is inferior to that of the bees that it preserves and shelters for its ruler, weakness, and medocrity.
 The line of king decays For great king there dozen stupid degenerate insane kings The Kaiser has awthered and queer wthered brain He is anarchron- sc He dates back to the time when intelligent scarce to time when thought that genius might perpe ate itself by breeding after the fashion in which Jersey created and dachunds those queer rptan dogs with their too long bodes and their crooked mshapen legs
 This is the German system, and the Germans paying the price.
 The American system is better. During his prime Mr. Roosevelt emperor He retire to private life and another strong man chosen in his place. He and his sons are again the status other Americans They titled to credit for their accomplishments and to
 America is proud of her system, which sends Rooseve boys to the terms other Americans system which gives Roosevel boys in promotion thar they
 The Germans will live to be ashamed of their King bee o their system borrowed from the hive, degraded since borrowed Some day they will be glad that Woodrow Will and the American people taught them democracy how to modern state, though the teaching can non's mouth
 sorrows Roosevelts boy and is proud of him
 sympahzes with his father and mother with the equal sympathy which American has every proud sorowfu father and mother who give to freedom Tn greatest in the world, the most famous and the gifted cannot love his than the other fathers
 The love of mothers for their urpasses father the outshnes the fathers pride in a vaan outmeasures his grief He tell the world hi feelings No pride outweghs mothers anguish hers the burden of the soldier whom endure pain to the utmost
 America treats all mothers alike, when she makes wal But Germany singles out the of the Empress shiel them from all danger of soldiers death and her from tn suffering that only mothers of dead soldiers know.
