George Stude Gets Certificate.

We recently learned that our young
soldier friend. George Stude, now at
Camp Hancock Georgia. has satisfac.
torily completed the prescribed course
in hand grenade and bombing and is
qualified to act as instructor. His GER
titicate is duly signed by C. M. Cunning
ham chief instructor. Those knowing
George as does the writer, know that he
is made of the metal and worth that is
sure to result in rapid advancement in
army service. He sent hand grenade
home. 1t is a most interesting object
to examine. George was one of eigh-
teen, out of seventy trying for the
honor, to successfully pass the required
tests.

The Fatherless Children of France.

The Wisconsin Council of Defense
has organized for the noble work of
doing something worth while for the
fatherless children of France, and Mrs.
James Brewer of this city has been APP
pointed chairman of the Iowa county
committee.
The plan of the organization is to
make the help personal. The helper
does not simply pay money into fund
which is distributed TO individuals not
known by him He is assigned par
ticular child and is put into personal
relations with that child, writes to It,
receives messages or letters in return.
At the same time he is joining hands
with France, for he does not give all
that is needed to maintain the child at
home. The French government gives
more than half, he gives the rest. For
a year Of this help he pays only $50 SO,
or ten cents day. Every penny goes
direct to the French child, expences be-
ing paid through a separate fund
Winter is approaching. The need Is
imminent. Payment may be made in
two installments ISIS Is EACH or in
four 1913 each.) Either the entire
sum or the first installment should be
forwarded. with the pledge, to Miss

THE WOMEN'S PART

Write the boys in camp cheerful
letters. This is the women's priv
ilege.
A soldier cannot do his best work if
he knows that the people at home are
worrying about him. Their anxiety
depresses him. and makes him dis
satisfied. The boy in camp has big
job which he must learn, and a big
responsibility. He must put all his
energy in his work if he does his duty
and expects to rise in rank. For this,
he must have good health-and good
spirits are essential to good health.
Bright, newsy. encouraging letters
from home will act as powerful stim-
ulants to the boys spirits. Apply
these stimulants often. They will
help him do his best work while on
duty, and make him stay clean while
off duty.
There is nothing about the boys
life in camp to make the folks at home
pity them. Their work is interesting
and healthful. They have good food
comfortable quarters, hot and cold
shower baths, and good wholesome
amusements. Besides these comforts,
the Y. VI. c. A. gives them chance to
improve their minds. They have Bible
studies, English and French classes.
So let the mothers and sisters and
sweethearts not hinder the boys in
their big job by writing them blue,
fearful letters. Instead, keep their
minds at ease. and help fire them to
great things by sending messages Of
cheer and encouragement.

KAIsER-THE GREATEST SLAVE

In the ancient days when the Jews
had a state, slavery was legally per-
mitted. This was to be expected
since the peoples in those times held
slaves and thought it proper and NOR
al to do so. But even in slavery there
was restraint.
The "Sh'mita Year" among the Jews
was the strange thing that made them
peculiar in those times. This Ssh 'mita
Year" meant that every seventh year
was a year of freedom. Also, and this
is the main point, all slaves OF Jew
ish birth were to be set free. But the
law said, "If there be any that do not
want their liberty. that refuse to take
advantage of their freedom and would
rather remain slaves with their mas
ter. this also shall not be refused
them" It further said, THE slave
and his master shall come to the court,
before the Judge and the people in the
market place, and it shall there be
made known to all the intention OF
the freed man to remain in bondage.
The master shall then and there bore
a hole in the mans ear as a mark OF
the latter's own servility."
Today the word is proclaiming a
new "Sh'mita Year" in order to bore
holes in the ears of those who refuse
to accept the freedom that is being
offered. While throughout the land
the cry of freedom, freedom" is
heard, the kaiser stands to his old and
ancient creed of 81 will remain a
slave" He is a slave to WORKOUT
ideas; he is a slave to his own be-
liefs; he is a slave to an old system /;
he is a slave to himself.
The world, in fighting the battle OF
democracy, is taking the kaiser to
the market place in order to bore into
his ear the sign of his servility. The
spirit of freedom is everywhere, and
he refuses to come under its radiant
influence. The spirit of ancient Jew
ry should again stigmatize him who
refuses to partake of the spirit OF
freedom.

PROF. GRIFFITH DESIGNS TABLE
Originates Plan to Help Y. M. C. A.
Entertain at Army Camps.

Entertain at Army Camps.
Prof. Ira S. Griffith of the manual
arts department of the University has
originated and submitted to the Army
Y. NJ. C. A. the plan of having the
manual arts student of the different
schools of the country make checker
tables for the soldiers. Professor
Griffith drew the design of the tables.
The plan has been adopted and circu-
lars are being sent to all the schools
urging them to contribute tables.
The material is to be furnished by
the schools and the Y. NJ C. A. will
pay the transportation charges. There
are 500 Y. NJ. c. A buildings at the
thirty-two Army cantonments. From
eight to ten tables can easily be used
at each building, which makes a
total of 5000 tables that are needed.
The manual arts department here will
make its share of the tables.
