God Of the Belgians was not there to
protect his.
In most Of the places we passed we
were warned not to use the water.
This, of course, had the effect of max
ing the soldiers hate the people from
whom they could expect only death. In
this way the vicious instincts of our
men were aroused.
The water, of course, was nowhere
poisoned. These lies were told to
arouse hatred Of the BeIglans among
our soldiers.
In the evening, at dusk, we reached
a village east of the Bertrlx. There
we found poisoned water also. In this
middle Of the village we halted and l
could see through a front window Of
house before which stood. In a mis-
cradle home Of a laborer we saw a
woman. She chung to her children as
If afraid they would be torn away from
her. Suddenly a stone as large as
fist was thrown through the window
into the room and a little girl was
wounded on the right hand.
In this village we were billeted In a
barn. With some comrades, went to
the village to buy food. We obtained
ham, bread and wine at a farmhouse,
but the people refused any payment
because they considered us guests.
They only asked that we should not
hurt them. We paid them neverthe.
less for everything, In German money.
There, as everywhere else we went.
we found the population In mortal

FOURTH LIBERTY LOAN

How about this fourth Liberty loanl
You know the campaign opens Septem-
Der q and closes October IS. The quota
for MoDtexuma county has not yet
been announced but win be nearly
double what the third Liberty loan
was. Are you laying your plans now
70 that you will be ready to take care
Of your share Of this loan? Remsmber
that you are not asked TO give any
thing but just to loan TO the U. s.
Government money at . good rate Of
interest. And. rs this Il government
for the people. by the people and
Of the people, you readily see that
you are only ioaning money to your
self.
One reason that the United States
army is in this war is because of the
cruelties the Germans committed
against defenseless women and child
rem. We are in this war to defend our
homes from the unspeakable horrors
that have befell the homes that have
been in the path Of the German army.
Isn't it the duty Of the head Of the
home-the man who has . wife and
children-to defend his home and loved
ones? Yet we married men are at
home enjoying the fruits of peace,
while the young men of our country
have left their homes and loved ones
and gone to foreign land to endure all
the hardships and suffering attending
the life Of soldier in active service
with one Of the most heartless and
cruel foes that ever carried arms, for
no other reason than that OUR homes
and loved ones might be saved the
awful fate of Belgium and northern
France.
For this great service they receive
less than so week and ask that we
furnish them with food, Payment, guns.
and ammunition that they may be able
to defend themselves and bring the
war to speedy and successful conclu-
sion so that they can return home.
For this purpose we are not asked to
give but only to loan at fair rate of
interest. This is an opportunity to
show our appreciation for what the
boys "over there" are doing and what
the boys in the training camps in the
U. s. expect to do for US. And we are
going to do it handsomely and willingly.
