factory guarantee Of what they have
been fighting for.
Speaking of devastation and destruc-
ton which the Germans have wrought,
if the people of America could see it.
they would agree with us that the sign
ing of any scrap of paper" would be
useless, unless the enemy were MADE
to keep such a treaty. They have not
kept any so far, nor would they keep
another only by the proper application
Of force.
Our experience has been a great one
and it has left deep impression on the
minds of all-that unpreparednees to
meet an armed foe whose brutality
knows no bounds and whose sword is
always measured against reason and
argument, would be a serious mistake.
must not linger too long on one
subject, as | stated | would mention
varied items The one which interests
US q great deal is the bakery. We do not
see it up here in the forward area, but
we see its products. Bakeries where
the bread for the whole army is made
and splendid white bread it is would
make the GAINESVILLE Bakery company or
Wallace Bros. envious. | won't worry
you with figures as to the thousands of
loaves they make daily. If ever my
wife (whom | don't even know, having
never met her or know the number
of her shoe) should happen to be sick
on baking day we will manage quite
easily | shall need so many stones of
flour, so many pounds of salt and
pound Of yeast. Mix them up and
there you are ! know it is right be-
cause | took the figures all down in a
book Anyway, the mothers may rest
content, the lads over here are getting
good and wholesome bread, baked one
day and eaten the next.
Another question | feel sure you
would ask me did you see any Ger
man prisoners 2" Yes. hundreds of
them, and here and there a nice pleas
ant face. They were not all bad but
making every allowance. the majority
were low, cunning type, just the men
to perpetrate the vandalism we saw on
the area over which they retreated.
AS looked at them and thought of the
meek the innocent, the infrm whose
homes they had ransacked and des-
troyed said There can be no treaty
with such men as these who made the
war, and there can be no peace, there
must be no peace, until the German
people have been taught such a lesson
that they will never again disturb the
peace Of the world
And now in conclusion The soldiers
IN France are not afraid of the German
army. But they are concerned about
the unrest at home. In my opinion
the man who goes on strike at the
present time, whatever the cause,
should have turn in the front line
trenches with the boys.

ZONING DOCTORS.

Philadelphia's director of health suggests the
coming Of physicians in the battle against the in
huenza epidemic. He believes there are enough
doctors to cope with this any epidemic if their
hours are not wasted running all over the city to
reach this and that patient, passing en- route other
persons i'll and who need medical attention.
, DR.. Krusen would divide Philadelphia into dis
trcts, allotting all influenza and pneumonia cases
in each district to the physicians in that particular
section. Thus he would make it possible for every
doctor to sick persons while covering less
ground.
"Physicans are compelled TO- spend too much
time in going from one patient to the next Do.
Krusen says.
The same problem of stretching shortage of
doctors to meet an increase in sickness may be
found in other cities. In Bismarck, too. =
Probably the same coming solution might be ap-
plicable here. 1t might save many lives. And
that is what we want to do. 4.
A doctor in his automobile hurrying miles out
of his way to attend patient isn't as useful to
the community as doctor at the bedside of a sick
person Any scheme which will get the doctor to
the sick in the shortest possible time is, seeming
ly, the best scheme
This plan may be put into more or less general
practice right here in Bismarck by the relatives
Of the sick The way suggested by DR.: Krusen is
to call in doctor who lives near the sick persons
home, and not telephone for physician on the
other side of the city,
If every doctor is saved two unnecessary travel.
ing hours each day wonderful life-saving move
ment will be we'll under way.
The Bismarck tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, N.D.) 1916-current, 1918-10-17
CONSIDER THE DOCTOR.

Bismarck is facing the worst epidemic IN lis
history with forty per cent less than ITS normal
s,nnly of medical men. The doctors whom war
has left on the job here are doing their oes''
working eighteen hours out Of every tWenty-1our'
rendering service not only to the SICK but 10 the
well. In return, they should have the complete
co-operation of everyone. Their task should be
made as easy as possible. Everything possible
should be done to expedite their work. In add
ton to 500 sick people scattered about the CITY,
they have two hospitals filled with medical and
surgical cases, and they have the surrounding
countryside to look after.
~ The most fragrant imposition on the doctor S
time-and it is an imposition upon other sufferers
and the public as Welcomes from cases where
one doctor is called and, pending his arrival, an
other is summoned. In this practice one patient
takes up the time of two doctors, one OF them
needlessIy and derives another patient OF services
which may be urgently needed Homes in which
there is sickness must recognize the fact that this
is general epidemic that it is period of public
distress, and that the doctors cannot be expected
to Immediately respond to every call made upon
them. When doctor is summoned and has agreed
to give case attention at his earliest possible op
portunity he should at least be notified If another
doctor is called in. The better way would be to
exercise some patience, to remember that there
are other cases perhaps even more urgent than
your own, and that, at best, the doctor is merely
human. and that there is limit to what even ne
can do.

DEMOCRACY.

Experience hath shown that mankind are more
disposed to suffer while evils are sufferable, than
to right themselves by abolishing the forms to
which they are accustomed.
The reluctance of individuals and nations to de-
part from the established order is the stigma of
fear passed down the centuries from autocracy's
darkest age.
Betterment of any kind or condition requires
effort and effort demands exertion. 4
There is one thing which the extravagant genus
homo radically conserves-his energy. Since i'm
provement calls for exertion mans disposition to
pace of his progress. ,.. III
But where the betterment involves social or
political upheaval where it flies in the face of GUS
tom and defes vested the misused authority, men
finch, quail, hesitate and postpone.
Those feudal barons Of the Black Era left in
delible impress which time has yet been insult
fciently passed to entirely eradicate It is the
curse Of the tyrant scared into the soul of the
serf. ~..@ .- . a@f# -
Democracy has done more to remove the blight
than all else. It fosters confidence encourages
faith in humankind and makes every man exert
some effort, expand some energy toward individ-
ual and general betterment.
Democracy has so liberated its pqssessors from
the dread to tread out of habits Stride that we've
undertaken to rid the world of the last of it's
feudalords, the last of it's fear-breeders
: Future mankind will NOT be disposed to suffer
evils rather than abolish the forms which en-
gender those evils and to which they have been
accustomed.
A,copperhead nation will never again plunge the
universe into hail Of lead and a hell Of dead.
Flu is closing the movies. { Now we'll have q
short reel Of that dear old fireside" stuff.

THE YELLOW DOG AND THE FLU.

Now the Yellow Dog has the flu.
The bug has bitten him hard and he is making
a loud aud far-reaching clamor. Perfectly loyal
and patriotic men and women of Bismarck have
taken up his cry, and innocenty are spreading the
evil tidings.
AND, OF COURSE, IT is MERELY ANOTHER
KAISER LIE. &s~
This tale concerns the execution of sundry doc
tors and nurses who were detected injecting Span
ish flu germs into soldiers at Camp Pike, Ark.
Somebody on train told somebody who lives in
Bismarck and he told somebody else, and some
body else busy began spreading the story, and
adding to it. <.
AND IT is JUST A PLAIN, COMMON GAR
DEN VARIETY OF KAISER LIE.
Somebody on the train" usually starts these
stories. .s..
The wonder is that there is always some other
somebody on the train" willing to listen to such
stories and anxious to believe them and ready to
spread them. .~.....
The Spanish flue tale Of the Yellow Dog is Of
fcially denied in national army and Red Cross
quarters. - ..t , = -.,
No German doctors or nurses in theservice of
the United States army nor in the Red Cross ranks
have been lined up at dawn with their faces to a
wall and shot in the back. t<.
There has been no instance of infection from
Spanish fue except from regular channels. The
epidemic ran it's course in Europe. William
Hohenzollern Of Potsdam, among other we'll known
citizens, had it. It was inevitable that<it would
make it's appearance here, with dozens of our boys
returning from the other side, and with transports
constantly crossing. 1t was just as positive that
once the flu gained foothold on the Atlantic sea-
board it would spread inland, and it was the most
natural thing in the. world that the epidemic
would show itself early in the great army canton
mems, where men are gathered from every. quarter
CT the country.
When anyone, no matter how well intentioned
he mt be, tells you that doctors and nurses have
been shot at dawn because they were detected in
jecting Spanish flu germs into our soldiers, wheth-
er the story deals with Camp Pike, Ark, or Camp
Dodge, Ia or Camp Custer, Mich, just ask him:
'sWho told you SO? How do you know"
And it will all route back to somebody on the
train" and that somebody, undoubtedly, was an
