Prussianism.
 Already more than 75,000 ArFan- sas boys have answered the summons to the colors, and the daily casualty lists brings back the sad story of many who are now sleeping their last sleep on the shell-torn slope of the Vesle and the Aisne, and within the last few days have made the supreme sacrifice on the Eastward slores of French Lorraine, overlooking the Rhenish provinces of Germany
 As time passes thereNis scarcely a home in the state that will not have in it's window the mute protest of service star against the war-llst of the Hohenzollerns, and the color of many of those stars will turn to gold, announcing that the great sacrifice has been made complete.
 But Arkansas is not faltering. It IS ready for any call, and prepared fer any emergency. Just as it has re- sponded to every call that has been made, has answered every re iuest for cooperative effort, and gone lover the top' in every drive for finds to support civilian war activities, so will they continue till the end of the chapter.
