bARROOMS ARE
 NOT OVERDONE
 Al IRISH BASE

AN IRISH PORT.-Considerin the large number and the quiant, attractive type of many of the bar rooms in the small town at the American Destroyer Base there is comparatively little drinking of in toxicants among the men of the fleet. It is unusual to see an American sailer who has imbibed toe freely and the saloons are not crowded during the hours when the largest number of men are allowed ashore.
 There is more sociability in drink ing in a small Irish town than in the larger centers of population in the British Isles or in American bars. Often an antique looking place in an ancient stone or cement house is operated by one man with the assistance of his wife or daughter or both in serving drinks. Even on the first visit to such a place a person, particularly an American. is treated more as a guest than as customer.
 The men prefer to go to the "Mens Club" which was erected with funds provided by Americans in England and managed by the naval officers, or the Y. NJ. C. A. The |. M. C. A. establishment can- not care for many at time, but it is being enlarged The reading rooms at both places are full every night, while the pool-room at the club draws a great many. At the club besides the theater, which at- tracts many every night, is also a soda fountain with real American i ice cream and ice cream soda, both of which are unobtainable in Eng land or Ireland unless provided ] through American enterprise. The restaurant with it's plain, whole some, well-cooked food, also is a great attraction.

EXTERMINATE THEM

The Rev. George A. dTlllltE, Baltimore Protestant Episcopal clergyman serving as chaplain with the 5th Field Artillery, the regiment that fired Americas first shot in the war, has written letter to prom inent Baltimorean, in which he dis cusses at length cruelties inflicted by the Germans upon civilians and soldiers.
 Il feel" he says. that I express the sentiment of those who have seen and heard over here, when l say that were l in America today, priest as I am, should do my best to have put to death any boche in America or any so-called American who would apologize in any way for what the boche has done.
 "All that you have heard in America about them does not ap- proximate the truth. There are little children right here in France with their little stumps of hands; there were some not far from my last camp, and young men with all the fingers of their right hand cut off. The other day British officer and three Tommies told me that a short time ago they went as an ad- vance party into little village from which the boche had been driven back, and in a large room there were four young Canadians cruci- fled, one on each wall of the room. Also when l was with the British they told me the boches had taken young Belgian and French girls into their first line trneches and tor tured them until their screams made the Scotch and Canadians so crazed they would go over into the machine gun HeSlS NuiCH lIle UOCHe Hdu Sel up, using the women's screams as a decoy.
 And I have it on the word of a British officer that they have stood (the officers), with guns leveled at their men to keep them from going over when the women scream, and being slaughtered. I cannot tell you what the Tommies told me they found when they drove these he'll fiends out of these positions; it is too awful even to think about. also have it on the word of one of the greatest French abbies that the boche were specially instructed to destroy convents-and kill or out rage the nuns, and he says that all through France and Belgium are ruined convents, and that the nuns were given the soldiers to be out ragged in the camps.

here and there where troops were drunk or without restraint. Go along the French or British front, and the only conclusion you arrive at is that they are just the ground principle of boche efficiency in ac- tion. 1 don't believe there is one of us here who wouldn't like to be home. But there is not one of us here, I believe, who does not want to see Bocheland devastated from one end to the other, with Berlin a blackened ruin-with the boche exterminated, militarists and all, be- fore we come home.
 1t is American blood that is flowing now, and God grant it may give America some strength to real ize what we are up against. To talk of terms until the boche is ex- terminated is to league with Satan for a corner in hell. Privations, sacrifices! What can you do at home to compare with what these men of ours are doing over here? Meat less days, wheatless days, sugarless days, good women knitting, benefits for the Red Cross-or all your social diversions with a charitable object sandwiched in.
 When you are out on a shell swept hill and the shells are going by like bats out of hell, as the sol diers say, and it's dark as the grave and every man, God bless him stands strong and true, camouflag. ing all his own feelings for youl sake and for the sake of what he has back home, meatless days anc wheatless days, and Liberty Bono campaigns seem cheap as your sup port of him in such an hour.
 ! ''Loathe the boche; preach agains him-work against him, wherever ht is, ostracise him socially and com mercially. Take no chance-ever though his reputation for loyalty ha' been long-standing one. The leap ard cannot change his spots-neithel can the boche demon lose his horns | I'm begging you now-as the boch, are trying to murder us-to hell wake every one up to the fact tha America must realize what the world
 is facing over here Can't you SC, it-can't America see it. hoy
 everything is hanging in the balanc,
 and know that the weight whicl
 shall cast it down is when you loathing for the boche will so burr
 in you as to make you count nothin, consider nothing-but his ex termination"
