Great as the danger and large al

vidual soldier has plenty Of chance.
of coming out of The war unscathed
or at least not badly injured.
Based on the mortality statistics
of the allied armies. a soldiers chan.
ces are as follows:
Twenty-nine chances Of coming
home to one Of being killed.
Forty-nine chances Of recovering
from wounds to one chance Of dying
from them.
One chance in five hundred Of los
ing a limb.
Will live five years longer because
Of physical training, is freer from
disease in the Army than in civil life,
and has better medical sare at the
front than at home.
In other wars from 10 to Is men
died from disease to l from bullets;
in this war one man dies from dis
ease to every 10 from bullets.
For those of our fighting men who
do not escape scatheless, the Gov

MAN POWER.

We read much Of man power thess
days; human power is better term
because it emphasizes the fact that
the women and children also consti.
tute great factor in this war; In the
final victory every man, woman and
child in America can and should have
a part.
In comparing the man power Of
Germany with that of the United
States it must be borne in mind that
q much larger proportion of the man
ual labor of the man power of the
Nation is performed, is exerted by the
German women than by the women
Of America. It is said that in peace
times, the women constituted AZ per
cent of the agricultural and industrial
labor of Germany. They work in the
fields, in the factories, in the mines,
at the very hardest and laborious
tasks, doing the work only done by
men in this country. With great
proportion of the Geramn men in,the
army, it is not improbable that we
men now constitute by far the larger
half Of German manual labor.
The women Of the United States
are nobly, unselfishly, manfully, one
may say, bearing their share of the
9h6rdens of war. BY the grace Of
God and the power and courage of
America the factor Of the German wo-
men is not and will never be theirs.
But it will be with their assistance
and cooperation and their full as
sumption of the burdens and duties
Of the day that the United States is
TO exert its full power in Kidding the
world Of that intolerable German
kultur which makes brute soldiers
of the men and slaves Of the women.
