From the tumut and confusion of a thousand
shouted slogans, elaborate programs, and get
peace-quick' schemes, the average man strives to
single out the simple acts by which he-the in
dividual citizen-may twin the war;" '
Reduced to their lowest terms every slogan and
program offered amounts to just this:
Produce as much as possible ILL., p,
Consume as little as necessary
/ Lend your earnings to the government u
This three ply, everyday and all-day duty Of the
individual citizen is as unromantic, hard to per-
form, as vitality important as the daily drudgery
of drill and guard duty for the rookie and the full
fedged soldier.
The war will not be won by slogans, by spectacu-
lar heroism, by erratic and temporary responses
to patriotic appeals.
The war will be won when every civilian

WHAT AMERICA HAS ALREADY GAINED IN
THIS WAR;. -


Among other things this country of ours has
gained: ,-... ~
l. Such position that no other nation OF
combination of nations will ever dare defy our
military power again.
g. The hegemony leadership of Anglo-Saxon
peoples. - 's.
3. Loss of all fear of the much touted "yellow
peril" (See one.)
4. Such respect for us and such confidence in
us on the part of Latin America that Latin Amer
lea nations will no longer fear that we have de-
signs on the NOR be jealous of us. Mexico in par
ticular will cease to be troublesome neighbor.
5. national self-respect free from all Chau-
vinism or jingoism.
6. The confidence of the plain people, the
workers of our country, that our government is
not unduly influenced by the possessors of great
wealth. Witness the income tax, the excess pro-
fits tax the inheritance tax. Also witness the just
treatment of the legitimate demands of all classes
of labor.
7. The recognition by the "kings of capital"
and the "lords of industry" of their humble posi-
tion servants of the people.
8. The introduction and approval of a new sys-

"GOD WILL NOT BE SHUNTED BY KAISER
LIKE A AWOODENIMAGE.Y~q, A.

The kaiser not only believed that he was the
senior partner in the firm of "Me und Gott" but
he had the nerve to kick out his junior partner
the Almighty-in order to hasten through blood
and loot, the coming of the "super-race' of which
he himself should be the head.
Perhaps he had an agreement with himself that
when he had beaten the laws Of natural evolution
in the building up of his superior people" by de-
stroying the common folks" of earth, he would
put God back on His German throne, and permit
the race to worship Him-the God who first made
the Germans great, and Who was then enthroned
by the master of both God and the German race
of "super-men"
But apparently God isn't playing the game to
suit the kaiser. He refuses to be shunted to one
side like wooden image, to be brought forth and
festooned with garlands, heading the procession
as the kaiser and his race Of "super-men" march
victorious into the streets Of Paris.
It will be sad and humiliating awakening to
the kaiser when he discovers that God is the
Father of us all-tender, and merciful and with
yearning for the good Of mankind, and that He
refuses to delegate to bloody war-lord of any
race the task Of bringing together His children
chat they may all be one."-Rev Charles
Stelzle.
