WAR IS NOT YET OVER
Don't Let Peace Rumors Put
a Stop to Win-the War
Act. Il Aids the Hun.

Judging from the eagerness
with which the average citizen
credits the various peace rumors,
me has not taken very seriously,
the warnings Of the best militia
ny writer's who for a year have
been predicting just exactly
what is happening now. The
following letter is worth reading
at this time, and bear in mind
that in assisting to spread any
unofficial reports of peace; they
F; are helping the enemy rather
agnan the United States.
TO the Editor of The Journal
3a3ne news columns state that at
the close of the first of the three
weeks campaign for the fourth Lib
aerty loan, 81, 900, 100000 has been sub
scriDed. The country is just 81, 900, 900,
600 short of what it should have sub
scribed to date. What is the reason?
"A number of alleged wise men are
telling themselves and those with
whom they associate that the war
will be over in few weeks-by Dec l
or Christmas. The result is, that
the man who never thinks but
always takes his ideas ready made,
and who looks upon the business man
as something or somebody out OF. the
ordinary, believes there is no great
need of supply in money for eight
months fighting when there will be
only three months of war. The
greatest single item Of good, which
the newspapers OF the United States
can do is to pound into the people Of
this country that the war will not be
over in a few weeks, nor in few
months. 1t is quite true the Hun is
stopped. But, let us remember, too,
shat when the Hun is back to his
own border line, there still remains
the necessity of an invasion of Ger
many before the military party of
Germany will quit IF those who
talk about the complete military de
feat of Germany in a few weeks would
only stop and consider before they
talk, there would be less danger OF
Sheir naturally optimistic natures do
ing their country an injury Every
real American in this country today
who has a penchant for telling his
friends that the war is about over is
doing a real injury to the cause he
mas nearest his heart. | would sug-
gest that the newspapers cut out
some of the optimistic headlines.
Many read only the headlines. 1t is
true we like to see the American and
Allied soldiers drive the Hun back,
but it would be wise to tone down the
headlines in many cases to conform
more nearly to the reading matter

have some dizzy rides with the
student pilots. We have to ride with
them while they are learning how to

you must watch for the danger to your
men in disease and you must guard
against it. And you will do well to
remember that good petticoats pre-
vent the danger of bad ones" In
these French towns will be American
women, assisting in the canteen work
of the Y. NJ. c. A, and like duties.
You will find them to be mothers by
proxy" as it were, to your boys and
you will find that they do a great work
in such things as these.
The greatest trouble with the Amer
lean soldier is that he has too much
money. You must teach your men to
save their money and not to spend it
foolishly. Our French soldiers are al
lowed to drink the light wines and the
light beers of France because they
know how to drink them and they are
moderate. IL the American soldiers
can do Ifkewise, they may be allowed
to drink these too. But if they can
not, then it must be for them bone
dry" And I am very afraid that 1t
will have to be bone dry. For the
American soldier spends his money too
freely and he does not know how to be
moderate. The French soldier gets a
dollar and a half a month-five cents
a day-and he has enough for his own
wants Until the Americans came the
English soldier was the rich man. He
gets about five dollars a month, and
he was considered a millionaire. Just
remember that ten dollars sent from
home to q soldier means exactly ten
dollars worth of trouble, and the trou-
BILE won't be over until it is all spent.
Write to the mother who sends money
to her boy and tell her that he will land
in the guard house for q length of time
in direct proportion to the money he
receives. for that is exactly what will
happen Tell her that he doesn't need
it, that he has more than he needs
anyway and that he will be much
better off if he saves part of what he
has and doesn't have any more from
her.
AS an officer, you will get many let
RS from mothers of your men. Some
az them YOU will perhaps answer
Yourself. Do so if you can, always.
But if you can't do it yourself, turn
these letters over to the Y. M. @. A.
secretary or to some of the American
women who are helping in the work
for the soldiers. 1t will give them a
point of contact with the men, and the
fact that someone is interested In an
swering those letters shows thos
mothers at homa that their boys are
being taken care OF and looked after
and helps them not to work. You
will do well to remember in i these
things that the Y. NJ. C. A. will help
you much in the looking after your

men. 1t is doing a big work with the
French armies and it is preparing to
do likewise with the American armies.
With all the races and classes of men
now in France, the American secre-
taries are W rking and helping. In
the English army the English gov
eminent uses the Y. M. c. A. and Eng
lishmen look after it but with all the
others, the American Y. M. C. A. is
doing the work. At present there is
a large force of Chinese laborers now
working in France, and the Y. M. G. A.
is there with them. That is perhaps
the most recent addition to the nation
alities represented on French soil.
Now here is another important thing
for you, as an officer, to remember.
Always see that your men are well
fed. Make it a point to see, not only
that your kitchens are clean and the
food we'll prepared, but that it is
bought well and that there is system to
the buying and to the preparation Of
the menus. Your men will not be long
in finding out that their rations are
better than those Of another company
and they will know the reason why,
and that will be another help in the
matter of the relationship between you
and your unit. A soldiers food is one
of the most important things that have
the food and the better it's prepara-
ton, the better service he can give,
and is willing to give.
All these things have to do with the
discipline and the spirit of your men.
The morale of your troops is most i'm
portant, it cannot be over emphasiz-
ed. 1t is one of the strongest points
of the enemy. Do not think that this
war began in 1917 when America en-
tered it. 1t began long before that
1t began long before the start OF hos
tilities in 1914 whe nthe Germans in
vaded Belgium. 1t began away back
in 1855 when Bismarck came. 1t is
