An artist went to sea to see
What he could see at sea to draw,
He only saw what all men see
The sea was all the artist saw;
And when he saw he'd seen the sea,
Proceeded he the scene to draw,
And since his scene I've often seen.
I've seen the sea the artist saw.

YOUR DUTY TO YOUR


Within sight of the writer sits a
sunny haired girl bent over a type
writer. Her husband is in France.
She does not know, but she suspects,
no doubt, that he is n of that grim,
~dust-covered column which for some
days now has filed a road leading to
Picardy; stalwart men, straight back
ed, eyes front, marching into hell. If
you bear a similar relation to the in
ferno along the Somme you will di-
vine her state of mind. If you don't
you can use your imagination.
She is your neighbor and country
woman. You have other neighbors,
hundreds of thousands of them, each
wondering about a boy in Picardy,
each striving to picture him in hero
ism or in agony, each tortured with
dread of the next moment and the
telegram it may bring. Sympathy
won't help them; they don't want it
they can't use it. They ask only that
you bear your share. to the limit of
your capacity, as they + bearing
theirs in this tragic conflict, which is
our national glory.
The way is wide open for you. The
country is appealing for subscriptions
to the Third Liberty Loan in support
of the sons and brothers and husbands
of your neighbors who are reddening
with their life's blood the mud holes
of the Somme. In the name of every
thing you hold sacred be ne.ghoorlX.

THE COST OF EQUIPPING A
DIVISION.

According to a federal esti-
mate, $4,3S7,S80 is required to
provide the initial cost of the
clothing, fighting equipment and
the eating untensils of a single
division of infantry.
Translated into terms of Lib
erty Bonds, this means 87,75S
persons have to buy one $50
bond apiece.
To feed this same division
during a years period of train
ing 1t cost ~$3,577,OO0. 1t would
take at least 71,540 buyers of
$50 Liberty Bonds to provide
the food.
If you happen to be n of the
buyers of a $50 bond you can
thus feel that your money has
done it's full duty in helping to
maintain a division of our fight
ers against Kaiserism.
Five Mile Beach weekly journal., 1918-05-03

When the quota is doubled, the
right is secured to place a large blue
star on the flag If trebled, two stars,
and SO on.
The way to help your town to win
the right to fly this flag is to buy all
the Liberty Bonds of the Third Loan
that you can, and induce your friends
to do the same.
When you make the first payment
on your Liberty Bond, you are entitled
to receive an honor emblem to paste
in a window of your house. 1t is a
reproduction of the Honor Flag, with
suitable wording. No one who has
not bought a bond of the Third Lib
erty Loan has a right to show the
emblem in his window. If any n
displayes any other picture of the
Honor emblem than the M supplied
by the Liberty Loan Organization for
this purpose, he is deceiving himself
and his n%eighbors, ven though it may
be Internationally.
There is only n way to get this
credit. Buy a Bond! If you haven't
done it yet, do it now. Let's see your
colors!
Five Mile Beach weekly journal., 1918-05-03
COST OF FEEDING SOLDIERS

The wal department has esti-
mated that it will cost about 30
cents a day to feed each soldier.
If you buy a $50 bond you pro-
vide sufficient money to pur-
chase one days meals for lab
men at the front.
If you buy a 500 Liberty
Bond you provide the govern
ment a days food for more than
a company of soldiers. If you
buy a $1,000 Liberty Bond you
will provide the cost of a days
food for almost a full regiment.
When you remember Secre-
tary Bakers statement that we
expect to have a half million
men at the front this summer
it will be easy for you to ap-
preciate the volume of Liberty
Bonds necessary to provide their
daily food.

THE BADGE OF HONOR

The accompanying illustration
shows the design of the badge of hon.
or which has been prepared for buy
ers of Third Liberty Loan Bonds.
These badges of honor will be distri-
buted by the millions to loyal Ameri-
cans who subscribe for the new bonds.
In previous campaigns the badges of
honor were very highly priced, and
many people are still wearing their
First and Second Liberty Loan badges.
There are no regrets in a Liberty
Bond.
If the Kaiser rules this country
there1l be no Liberty Bonds and no
liberty.
If you haven't yet bought a Liberty
Bond, now's the time. If you've al
ready bought one, buy another.

BUT ONE WAY TO PEACE AND
 THAT IS THE WAY TO BERLIN

Editor Manufacturer Record: My opinion is that we cannot consider any terms of peace whatsoever with the German government as now consti- tuted. Germany must be licked and the Hohenzollerns kicked off the throne before we can even talk peace without outraging our self-respect.
 The German military ring must be broken and so shattered that it can been responsible for the rape of Bel gium and France; those who have been responsible for the heinous out rages upon the civilian populations oyerridden by Germany; those who have been responsible for breaking the rules of war and using poisonous gas in battle; those who have been Responsible for torpedoing passenger vessels and hospital ships. and for dropping aerial Bombs on shore hos pitals; those who have been respon- siblc for the killing and maiming of women and children in London and Paris with aerial bombs: those who have been responsible for breaking the most sacred treaties and obliga- tions of nations-have placed them selves beyond the pale and cannot and must not be bargained with in any peace arrangement
 Those mlitaristic bandits of the breed of Attilla who cold ld-bloodedly prepared to plunder the world and enslave mankind and to that nefar- iouS end planned to violate every human obligation and attribute of duty, mercy and decency, are not fit to place their names to a peace com pact beside those of the heroes who shall, with sacrifice of blood and treas ure, save the world from their clutches.
 Anyone proposing peace with Ger many before Kaisersm shall have been crushed out of existence should either be interned or be placed in an insane asylum for medical treat ment. There is but one way to peace and that is the way to Berlin. It will he a long, hard. expensive and bloody road, but it is the only road. and when We shall have arrived at the end of that road we shall have only sub Jugated, suppliant, Kamerad-callng populace to deal with, and the terms which We shall then make will not be the terms of any bargain, but merely terms imposed by us according to our ideas of justice.
 Justice will make one inexorable de- mand on that occasion, and it will be that Germany shall bear the burden of rebuilding and reimbursing Bel gium and the desolated portions of Northern France in full measure. and Alsace and Lorraine must be restored to France.
 What other terms may be imposed will matter far less.-Hgdson Maxim.
