final result.
The appearance of this new element
in the fighting line, keen, stalwart,
determined young men, with the vigor
of perfect physique, backed by in
domitable pluck, recklessness Of dan
ger and determination to win, put
new hope. new life, in the allies who
had been almost exhausted by four
years of bitter strife. Our boys may
not have fought more bravely than
their comrades of England and France
but their dash and vigor renewed the
spirits of both French and English
and the most gallant and effective
fighting of the war followed the first
appearance of the Yanks from beyond
the sea.
With these fresh reinforcements
Foch at last had the men and means
at his command, and with the hating
/ of the Germans on the Marine he in.
augurated one of the most brilliant
| campaign of offense that has mark
ed any war of history. On all the
fronts the fighting on the side of the
allies took on a new impetus, and i

The terms of the armistice signed

which include the evacuation of all
invaded territory, the withdrawal of
the German troops from the left bank

the abandonment by Germany of the
treaties of Bucharest and Brest-

Germany is to notify neutrals that
they are free to trade at once on the
seas with the allied countries. Resti-

Bank of Belgium and return of gold
taken from Russia and Rumania. The
surrender of 5000 guns, half field and
half light artillery; 10000 machine
guns, 5000 flame throwers and 1000
aeroplanes, 5000 locomotives. 10000
roads of Alsace-Lorraine for the use
or the allies and stores of coal and
iron are also included. The immedi-
ate repatriation of all allied and AM

Only lately German submarines were
sinking neutral vessels as we'll as
vessels belonging to the allied powers
without warning, numbering women,
children and non-combatants, in an
effort to starve out England and
France. America has suffered terrible
| losses from these hyenas of the sea,
that knew no mercy. Are we to now
turn around and feed the hand that
has been shifting us? To hades with
such proposition. If at any time
during the long war Germany had
shown a single sign of justice or char
ity; had she treated the civilian popu-
lation Of the countries she overran
with any degree Of clemency; had she
displayed single sign of humanity
in the treatment of prisoners; had she
shown a single spark of honor or
decency in the conduct of the war,
there would be some reason for deny
ing ourselves to aid her people at this
time. Had Germany won, as her peo-
pie were so cock sure they would
what mercy would France, and Italy,
and England and America have receiv-
ed through her hands? Such mercy
as the lamb might expect from the
wolf They insisted upon making
their bed, let them lie in it. Out OF
respect to the memory of the Ameri-
can boys who sleep on FLANDERS

manned, and broken in health from
noxious German gases; of those VINO

German torpedo. let us do nothing to
rehabilitate these savages so that they
may rise again in future years anu

err industries connected directly
or Indirectly with the war. The
burden Of supplying food and
raw materials Of various kinds
for our Allies will continue to in
crease. Federal taxes must be
increased largely, and there will
be continued calls for subscrip-
tons to loans. The cost of liv-
ing is much greater than it was
before the war. With the de-
crease in the purchasing power
of money and the increase in the
need for labor, wages have in
creased to such an extent that
the temptation becomes ever
stronger for older boys and girls
to leave school and work for
wages, and for teachers to leave
their work for other forms of
employment in which the pay is
larger. Many teachers will re-
main in the service of the schools
in the face Of temptation of larg-
er pay elsewhere, but we cannot
hope to keep the schools up to
their full efficiency without a
large increase in school revenue,
which again must mean an in
crease in taxation. But for the
strength Of the country in War,
and for it's welfare and safety
after the War is over, the means
and processes Of education must
not be neglected nor allowed to
become less effective than they
are now. No boy or girl must
have less opportunity for educa-
ton because Of the War.
If the War is long we shall
need very large numbers Of men
and women with scientific
knowledge and trained skill for
the higher grades of service
which cannot be rendered by the
millions of men and women Of a
lower grade Of education and
without which the efforts Of the
millions would be of little value.

days of reconstruction have
come, the call upon this country
for men and women of the high

world, we should be able to re-
spond generously. Conditions
in this country and our position
among the peoples of the world
will require Of us a higher level
of intelligence and civic right

people have yet attained. This
must be insured largely through
our schools.
I am writing this to ask your
assistance in a nationwide cam
paign for keeping our schools Of
all grades and kinds up to their
full measure of efficiency, and to
prevent as far as may be pos
sible any falling off in attend
ance.
There are now for us as a
people just two tasks of supreme
Importance: To win the war for
freedom and democracy; and to
fit ourselves and our children for
life and citizenship in the new
era which the war is bringing in.
Both tasks must be accomplished
thoroughly and we'll, whatever
the cost in money and effort and
whatever the sacrifice in ease
and comfort may be.

FOOTBALL MAY BE ELIMIN-
ATED FOR WAR PERIOD
Normal School Here Hnd Bright
Prospects for IL Winning Team.
Bulletins and Dispatches Are ut
Variance on the Subject.

The press dispatches have recently
quoted the War Department as op-
posing the operation of football
In all schools and colleges in which
Students Army Training CORPS are
located, which. IL correct, includes
almost every school of collegiate
standing in the country. and will
practically abolish the game this
year. AT the same time bulletins
sent out by the War Department to
the schools strongly recommend foot
ball, baseball. and basketball as a
part OF the training for the Stu
dents Army Training Corps recruits
+. n. Laird. Normal School Ath-
letic Director. when asked about the
matter few days ago. said: The
Normal has material for the best
team In its history. and is in process
or arranging its schedule of games
bulletins coming to us from the War
department from time to time have
recommended baseball, football, and
basketball for training recruits in
the students Army Training Corps.
ana the announcement today that
the war Department opposes football
IN schools of S. A. Il. &. standing
comes as a distinct surprise to us.
or course. If the War Department so
advises. Southeastern will abandon
entirely its football pdospects. l am
sure, however. that there may be
some modification in the orders as
they have been published in the
press.
Later---Coach Laird, of the Nor
NAL. who has been very much cast
down the last week. is again happy
and is meeting the incoming stu
dents for the Normal with his old
familiar smile and hearty handshake
and his face lights up especially as
ne meets a man whom he thinks will
make good football material. His
gloom was brought about by the
report above referred to. that foot
ball would not be allowed in those
institutions having units of the s. A.
T. {. Later advices. however, are
that football will not only be per-
mitted but encouraged. So Mr..
Laird has ordered all the necessary
equipment and is seeking out the
best material for a strong football
team. The present prospects are that
the Normal this yeor will have the
best team in its history. This will
certainly he good news to all the fans
in this section.
