Don't waste your time specializing
on peace. Speculate on war and in
vest your money in Liberty bonds
The farmer has come splendidly to
the front with his muscles and knowl-
edge of agriculture and has provided
the allies with food. He has been paid
handsomely for his crops. If he re-
invests those dollars in Liberty bonds,
he will be making a profitable deal
and at the same time providing his
government with the funds to pay
him higher prices for his grain and his
corn and oats. Food will win this war
but it wont win it if it must lie in the
field and rot for want of funds to pur-
chase it and move it to Europe where
our young men are fighting the
kaiser. Buy Liberty bonds and help
move it.

This war came to us in spite Of all
the patience that an honorable and
self-reSpecting people could sustain 1t
came to us because we had to protect
our national honor, but it also came
to us because we had to preserve our
right in the world to travel the seas
without let or hindrance and without
fear that we might take our crops, our
metals and our manufactured prod
ucts wherever the seas might find for
us markets. 1t came to us by reason
of a conviction that these rights could
not be sustained unless we fought the
fight on European soil, for unless the
fight were won there, the fight would
be upon the Atlantic seabOard of our
own country"
1.-THE trouble with the German au-
tocracy is they have turned away from
the face of GOd-they have set up for
themselves new philosOphy-th
philosophy of Nietsche and Trietschke
the creed of the superman; that he
who has the power to take has the dt
vine right to have; that nation will
Violate any law, any secret obligation,
any treaty, provided only 1t succeed.
Such philosophy and rulers guided by
1t would destroy the Christian civiliZa-
ton of the world For if such philoso-
ply win, then the world will be ruled
by these supermen and all the rest will
be slaves. This fight means either Cal
vary, the gospel of the carpenter of
Galilee, or Corsica, the rule of the
mailed fist of might and power
