GERMAN LEADERS
KNOW WAR LOST,
But TO fight ON

A picture Of Prussianism and what
it has done in preparing for and
bringing about the world war, was
given by DR.. Herbert L. WiIlett Of
the theological seminary Of the Uni
versity OF Chicago as the baccalau
reate sermon at the Moorhead nor
NAL auditorium on Sunday evening.
Beginning with 1701, when the Ho-
henzollerns began to gather in the
separate states that have now been
assembled as the German nation,
he traced the growth and develop
ment to the present day The
causes of the world war and espe-
cially those that forced America to
become a party, were graphically
told.
Speaking Of the far-reaching spy
system Of the Germans, DR.. Willett
said that Wilhelmstrasse knew to g.
man how many men in Ireland and
India were ready to revolt II Eng
land engaged in war. The one thing
they did not know and have not
yet been able to find out is why Ire
land sent her thousands and India
her tens of thousands to fight with
the armies Of England.
No great invention has ever come
from Germany. said DR.. Willett, but
they have followed out and develop
ed the inventions of men of other
countries. The outstanding feature
of the German character is persist
ence and the progress that has been
made has been through sticking to a
thing until it was brought to the
highest possible development.
German leaders know that they
have lost the war. said DR.. Will
lett. They would give up Alsace and
Lorraine in a minute If they were
permitted to retain the key to Asia
upon which their eye is set. They
would give UP all else If permitted
to continue domination of Turkey
and control Of the strip of Russia
they now occupy, and of the Balkan
states.
That the war will not end in six
months, and probably not for several
years. was the opinion Of DR.. Will
lett, although he disclaimed being
a prophet. That America must bear
the burden of the war until it is
fought to a successful end. was the
lesson Of the address.

Clay County Men
Hon0red by City

Henry, s.. Larson and Fred A.
Shaw, the two young men from Fell
ton who were delayed on the road,
arrived in time and went to Camp
Lewis with the other SO Clay county
men Saturday afternoon. This left
out Oscar E. Akesson Of Muskoda
and George P. Hanson, RoIlag, the
two alternates selected. 1t was a
great disappointment to Akessen,
who begged to be permitted to go.

each to see two of his sons leave
for the training camp. John o. Hill
lestad OF Cromwell township said
goodbye to his sons. Henry and
John, and Michael Hansman, Moor
head, to his sons, Joseph and TONY"
Casper Wohlwend. Civil war veter-
an. of Barnesvilie. saw his son,
Fred, leave to join a brother who is
already in France.
The departure Of the men on Sat
urday was witnessed by several
thousand people who had assembled
to cheer the boys on their way. All
Moorhead business houses were clos
ed and many people from outside
the city helped to swell the crowd.
A concert was given by the Con-
.cordia College band. using the new
Standard Oil company's billing sta
ton as a grandstand. Short ad-
dresses were made by DR.. F. A.
Weld, DR.. J. A. Aasgaard. S. G. Com
stock and Sen. F. H. Peterson.
When the train pulled in with sew
eral carloads Of cheering soldiers
from other counties. the Clay coun-
ty men were lined up on Eighth
street between files Of the Moorhead
Home Guard, acting as guard of
honor. Moorhead's record for load
ing her man quivkly was maintained,
as the 85 soldiers were aboard and
the train, again under way in less
than four minutes.
