Those who have been under fire have demon

Many an American son has gone down

A small American army, no matter how brave.
will inevitably suffer severe casualties A
gigantic American army will overwhelm the

loss of life.
The lives of our sons are in our hands. The
boys are ready, willing and eager. They
must be trained and equipped No time
must be lost. Ii IS up to US to provide the
money necessary to make these boys invinci-
bic. We must do it and do it quickly. With
our own sons already in the fight, every

DIR. Motifs telegram follows:
Our whole national organization
(the seven cooperating agencles) is
united in the conviction that the war

tions must continue to be pressed
with increasing vigor, and that when
ever peace comes it will be followed
by a long period of rehabilitation.
Military authorities say it will take
fifteen months to bring the Canadian
army home and eighteen months for
the Australian army.
"All military authorities with whom
1 have consulted insist that it will re-
Quire over twelve months after peace
is declared to bring the American
Army home. This Rehabilitation
period will present the greatest need
for our work and by far our greatest
opportunity. therefore there should be
no hesitation of change in the cam
paign plans. except for charging
them and re doubling our efforts to Sc
cure, if possible, so per cent oversub-

His opinion that it is just as well to

pressed by Lieut.. Ralph A. O'Neill of

Aviator O'Neill proudly claims that
the pick of American youth furnishes
the best material in the world for
aviators. He neglects to touch upon
his own record, which, for July, shows
five enemy machines downed, with
one unofficial victory, including a
combat by himself and one companion
against eight German planes. He
fought four encounters in one day.

The Peace Campaign

The allies victories increase,
and Kaiser Bill will talk of
peace, the boon he's longing for;
and spineless delegates will say,
"Why not let Wilhela have his
way, and end this beastly war? ?"
| Oh, yes, let's put away our guns,
and sit and gossip with the
Huns, until they get their breath,
when, with their energy. re-
stored, they'll usher in, with
brand and sword, a new crusade
of death. By all means let us
meet half way the Teut who has
!some things to say Of armistice
and truce: let us forget how he
has lied (there is no truth be-
meath his hide), and turn some
twaddle loose. Let us forget
the Prussian's crimes, which
have, in all historic times, no
parallel, say men, and talk of
peace and kindred boons, and
liverwurst and beer and prunes,
until we're tricked again. We've
seen the package Russia got
when she gave ear to German
rot, and banked on German lies !;
and we should do as Russia did,
and in the ditch like Russia skid
it would be sane and wise.
But it will be little while be-
fore the Teut's enhancing smile
can put us in a trance; some
German towns We'll have to
strike and show the folks what
wars been like among the towns
of France. Well have to show
the placid Fritz how scenery
is blown to bits by modern al
lied guns; down German roads
we'll have to wend, and stand
the River Rhine on end, and
grieve a lot for Huns.

Dentists and BARRIERS.
TO the Editor Of The star.

TO the Editor Of The star.
Now that these dentists and harbers
have come into touch in the use of
protective masks against the innu-
enZa, it may be pertinent to ask ::
Why the health authorities require
the barber to safeguard his patrons
by Il clean covering for the chair
head rest as 10 each such patron,
while no requirement in the same
protective way applies to the dentist?
1t may be added, also, that some
dentists are additionally Indifferent
or careless concerning the glasses
which their patients use during the
Gs mist functions. How often is the
glass steriliZed during the day.
1t occurs to the writer that regula-
tons should be issued and enforced
