"YE SERPENTS, YE GENERATION
OF VIPERS, HOW CAN YE
ESCAPE THE DAMNATION
OF HELL?"

has been upset; all our fond antici-
pations for the future of our loved
ones must now be supplanted by the
e~ver-present realization of their dan
ger, their certain sufferings and their
possible death; sorrow and anguish
are everywhere, the nation is in tur-
MOL, a land Of peace has been sud-
denly transformed into a war ma
chine; the daily toll of death grows,
longer, and soon will be doubled and
quadrupled and requ~adrupled; sorrow
and breaking hearts are everywhere.
And why all this suffering and sor-
row, why these breaking hearts, why
this awful toll of death and disease?
Because Germany for the aggran-
disement Of its autocratic, despotic
rulers, and for the wealth to come
from footing the world for years
definitely planned to turn this peace
full world into a hell of woe. Cold
bloodedly these murderers set about
their plans for a war upon their
neighbors, intending when they had
been destroyed to push across the
sea and conquer America. They even
planned the terms for exploiting
Canada, which was to be one of the
indemnities to be paid to England.
The whole world has thus been
turned into a mighty armed camp,
millions have been killed, and mil
lions have been MANNED; the blind,
the armless, the legless will oon be
in evidence all over our land as they
are in England, France and Italy.
Millions have died of hunger and
hundreds Of millions have felt the
pinshing power Of an ever-decreasing
food Ixoly; hundreds of millions
have for nearly four years lived in
agony Of heart as by day and by night
their ears ever strained for the dread
ed word of the death of some loved
one.
For years our Allies endured hor-
rors surprising the widest flight of
Dante's Imagination as he pictured
the inferno, and day after day, month
after month, from their bleeding
hearts went forth the never-ceasing
cry: How long, 0 Lord, how lon
will America sleep on in faneied Sc
curity?"
And why have our Allies thus suf-
fered and why must we now give mil
lions, the very flower of our civiliza-
ton, to endure these sufferings and
death in all it's fearful battlefield
forms?
Because William, the accursed,
and all Germany-not the military
leaders only, but all Germany-set
out on prearranged a campaign to
murder millions in order to enrich
themselves by footing the world.
These murderers, these hooters,
these outragers destroyed woman
hood, slew hostages, shot down in
nocent civilians, to protect themselves
from the soldiers of the Allies placed
women and children in advance OF
their fighting line, poisoned wells,
spread disease germs, all for the pur-
pose of making their predetermined
plan of "frightfulness' their greatest
weapon to make nations tremble be-
FORE the very thought of arousing
German hostility. And all this for
their own personal enrichment and
planned out for many years.
At last, thank God, America is
awake, and never again will it slum-
Der until those who have created
this hell on earth have paid the full
penalty of their crimes.
And Jesus said -
EYE SERPENTS,, YE GENERA
TON OF VIPERS, HOW CAN YE
ESCAPE THE DAMNATION OF
HELL?"-The Manufacturers Record.
