Germany counts more upon this lat

America, than she counts upon her
armed forces!
A writer in recent issue of the
Saturday Evening Post speaks of this
secret army, and says, in effect, that
there is but one organization that can
successfully fight it, and that this or.
ganization is made up of the every
day citizen population of America. In
this he is eminently correct. The
everyday citizen needn't be vested
with authority. When he sees any.
thing that looks like German work
he can simply report it Immediately
to the authorities, or even to the post

Trouble of The Local Boards
Will Be Ended AT E4rly Date

Washington, Feb. 26.-The troubles
OF the local Florida draft boards are
about over. This cheering news comes
.. i'll the form of a statement just issued
BY Col. Hugh S. Johnson, acting pro-
yost marshal general.
Colonel Johnson says he has been
requested by several State headquar-
tiers to outline the general duties OF
the local boards after the completion
OF classification.
Some $4,000 citizens compose these
boards" he adds, and it was recog-
nized early that the government mus,
adopt some policy which would en-
able these men to assist it in its hour
o. need, yet not take unfair advantage
OF their patriotism to their business
and financial loss. To this end the
regulations calling for classification
were planned and put into effect
with this work completed, the 10.
cal boards have finished the great
task. They will be asked now to SUI
pervise only the drawing of army
units from their respective commune
ties. They will not be required to be
present at the actual physical exami-
nations. The regulations require that
they approve or disapprove the re-
suit of such examinations. To tighten
the demands on the time of board
members, they may authorize the
chief clerk to sign documents in the
name of the board. The main duty of
local boards henceforth will be the

German Efficiency
(By Hausburg Liebe of The
Vigilantes)

The average man Of those whom you
meet in city or country will tell you
that the Germans are a little more
Their remarkable for their everlasting
efficiency. l used to think that too.
but now | think that the Teuton is
a thorough man rather than an effici-
ent man. In a large measure, effici
ency means being original, having in
ventive ability, the ability to take the
initiative; it means being able to fill
unlocked for breaches instantly.
The German, generally speaking, is
a sort of cut-and-dried fellow. He is
a man of precedents, and not big on
taking the initiative. He is a most
thorough developer of somebody
else's ideas; but, save for subter-
fuges, excuses, diplomatic" trickery,
and underhand and shameless meth
DDS of waging war; he is not much of
an inventor. His submarine, his air
plane,-well, just what is he using in
this war, for which he spent forty
in preparation, that he himself in
vented? A few kinds of poisons,
perhaps.
To be a Jnorougn man is not to be
an efficient man. An imbecile may
be thorough at one thing or another.
AS for efficiency, the Entente Allies
including America, if you please,
are more efficient at real war than
the Nations comprising the Central
Power. The Entente worked Won
ders, miracles, Judging by precedent
considering the short space of time
they had for preparation. Germany
had had forty years, you know.
1t was thorough, though purely
theoretical, reasoning that told the
Teutons that they could cross Bel
GUM, roughshod and unhindered,
crushing Belgium and her spirit to
take Paris. But they didn't do it. By
all the German rules of the war game,
they should have won at the Marine,
and yet they didn't; and at Verdun,
that crucible that made heroes, the
defenders of the right again achieved
the impossible. German efficiency?
It's a sort of fish story.
Speaking of heroes, you'll find he
roes under the British flag, and
French heroes, and Italian heroes,
even Russian heroes, and even Amer
lean heroes-of course you re-
member that American who, before
the United States declared a state of
war with Germany, went up Vimy
Ridge with small edition of Old
Glory knotted to his bayonet,-but
where are the heroes of Germany?
Airmen? All airmen are super
brave men. Hindenburg? He is
merely an inronsouled war lord.

work of their vast secret army, the
army that defeated Russia and almost
