u. S. AND FRANCE
ONE FATHERLAND.

Paris-As proof that the soldiers of
France are grateful for Americas aid
is the expression of thanks of one
French soldier, Lieut. H. Douillet, in
an excerpt of a letter to the Red
Cross:
"As I marched / thought of the
filial bond that unites America and
France; of a patriotism reaching
across the ocean to make of two dis
tant countries one single fatherland,
to create the same duties for all, the
same discipline in battle, the same
feelings of tender solicitude and de-
votion, the same joy in conquering
and dying.
II would have liked to have seen
America before me, personified as
some holy woman-mother or sister
With what reverence, mixed with
love, would | have kissed the hem OF
her robe, saying: THANK you for all
those who have fallen before they
could sing of victory! Thank you
above all, for our little children,
whom we shall teach henceforth that
America and France must be for them
but one single fatherland!"

CONQUERED.
Lord Reading Says That. Not Change
Of Heart. Was Why Germany Quit.

| LONDON.-Germany in the end
| gave way not because she had chang
ed her views but because she knew
she would be absolutely beaten, de-
clared the Earl of Reading, who has
been mentioned as one of the Brit
/ ish peace delegates, in a speech in
| London recently. Lord Reading ut
tered warning and said the allied
countries should continue to be
watchful of Germany and the utter
ances of her statesmen.
THE Germany which is now anx-
| ious to fall in with the views of our
country" he said, has yet to show
| by her actions and not merely by one
day or two days or a year or two
years that the whole spirit of Ger
many has changed as we wish it to
change before we can ever believe in
our hearts that Germany has chang
ed from what she was before the
| war.
When reading the German foreign
secretary's message regarding the
armistice conditions it should be re-
membered that the terms of the ar
mistice were more gentle and more
merciful than would have been the
IOA LILO IL li1C wal Uctu A0I
US continue to be watchful and wary.
In peace, as in war, we must remem-
Der what has happened. We must
take to our hearts the lessons of the
past
I've do not require revenge !;
France has not asked for revenge.
| What we did wish and what we were
determined to have, both in France
and England, and in all the nations
associated in the great cause, was
that justice should be melted out to
those who were responsible for the
awful horrors of the last four and
one-half years"

URGE WEARING OF MASKS
Physician Urges It's Use to Stop Flu
Epidemic.

DR.. Woods Hutchinson, the famous
physician and writer, is especially
concerned with research work rela-
tive to the terrible scourge which has
swept the United States this fall.
If the country hadn't been pig
headed every precaution would have
been taken to combat the disease long
before the flu ever reached here. We
knew it was prevalent in Europe and
that it would find its way here" he
said.
The mask is absolutely the most
sure preventive of the spread Of flu.
This germ is the old influenza germ
with a new twist. The disease was
brought to Boston by sailors on
transports and was transported to
Camp Devens. The fact that it got
its start in an army camp is respons-
ible for its new form. All the per-
sons in such community are men !:
all are practically the same age.
Germs travelling from one sex to an
other change their form during ad-
justment. In an army camp there
would be no chance except that the
bug would increase in virulence. So
the thing grew and spread over the
entire country.

$4,000 DEATHS
FROM INFLUENZA
IN ARMY CAMPS

WASHINGTON, Dec. 13-Approx-
imately $1,000 members of the United
States army died of influenza in the
military stations of this country dur
ing the epidemic this year, is was an
nounced by the war department ia.
day. This number of deaths occurr-
ed out of a total Of 338,257 cases.
Due to the fact that the deaths
from influenza and pneumonia in the
military camps were not grouped
separately, only approximate esti-
mates can be made of the death toll
of the epidemic the statement said
Since September 13, the day of the
outbreak of the epidemic, there were
1904 deaths from all causes in the
military stations of this country.
The greatest number of cases of
influenza from single camp was re-
ported from Camp Funston, Kan.
where a total of 1851 developed
during the epidemic. Camp Funston
had 1884 cases of pneumonia and 900
deaths from all causes during this
period, which was below the rate of
the other camps, however.

"KAISER-MINDED" STILL
ARE MANY GERMANS

The Hague-A report from Darn
stadt, capital of the grand duchy OF
Hesse, and another from Oberhausen
in Bavaria, agree that the number OF
people in Germany who still favor
kaiserdom is very large. In Darn
stadt two-thirds Of the population are
what is called kaiser minded" the
meaning of which is not that they de-
sire to be ruled by William H., who
lost any affection the Germans ever
felt for him by his abandonment of
his country in the hour of her great
est need, but they prefer monarch
ical to a republican system.
Their position is that if the kaiser
returned to Germany today he would
be arraigned, not for his misdeeds,
but for his mistakes. The Germans
would have forgiven him for much if
he had not run away.
That was his greatest blunder. They
mean to fix the blame and proceed
against those who are responsible
for the debacle, but they are not ne
cessarily against the institution of a
kaiser, though after what has hap
pened, neither William II. nor the
ex-crown prince would be allowed to
occupy the throne.

ssDO NOT BE TOO KIND"
SAYS M. LAUSANNE.

NEW YORK, New York-In speak
ing at farewell dinner rendered him
by several of his friends, Stephane
Lausanne, editor of the Paris Matin,
who has been in the United States on
a French Government mission, en-
treated Americans to remain stead
fast, strong, united-strong because
strength is the only thing the Ger
mans understand, and united because
union gave us victory" He hoped
that Americans would refrain from
being too kind and too generous. LET
us all remember" he said, that we
have not fought the war for our
selves, but for our children, so that
they may live happily and enjoy the
sunshine of free world. / assure
you that you have the heart of the
French people. We know we have
your heart forever"

ing the epidemic was at Camp Grant,
Ill, where there were 1,091. There

If masks had been universally
adopted the scourge would have been
checked. The germ doesn't work its
way through the skin. 1t breeds in
the mucous membrane of the nose. It's
the most delicate kind of germ,
which lives bue FIVE minutes after its
discharge. If masks are worn to in
tercept its path it dies a natural
death and no one suffers evil conse-
quences Z"
