All Free Men Are United.

Gen. March-The Fourth Of July Is
a symbol of freedom to all Americans.
1t represents the establishment on this
continent Of a government by the peo-
pie; the outcome Of a war where men
sacrificed their lives and their for
tunes in order that their destinies
should not be controlled by autocracy.
On this Fourth OF July we find the
whole nation mobilized for war in or
der that the freedom gained by our
forefathers should not be wrested
from US by q ruthless and despotic
monarchy. Americans in France and
Americans at home will today receive
new Inspiration. from the recollection
Of what this day means to us. to pur-
sue this war to q victorious conclu-
sion. Free men all over the world are
today united under one standard and
are animated by one idea, never to be
enslaved by any nation, and for this
idea they will gladly die; and IN this
fact lies our assurance that Germany
can never win.

WARNS AGAINST THE MAKING
OF AN INCONCLUSIVE PEACE
William C. Fits, Addressing Sons of the
American Revolution, Tells Why
the u. S. Went to War.

America must confirm and fortify''
herself against the temptation to pre-
mature peace. Assistant Attorney Cen
eral William c. Fits declared. address,
ing the audience which gathered at the
foot OF the Washington Monument at
10 o'clock this morning for the annual
Independence day exercises Of the Dis
trict Sons Of the Revolution and the
Sons OF the American Revolution.
Mr.. Fits gave a clear recitation Of
the repeated violations Of international
law on the part Of Germany in sinking
merchant vessels, and said every Ameri-
can should remember that his country
has a direct grievance in this war aside
from the principles Of humanity and jus
tice.
Permanent Peace the Goal.
'1Having so entered under these provo
cations" said Mr.. Fits. "our people
must be sustained and strengthened in
the determination to fight until Prussian
militarism has been decisively defeated.
We must confirm and fortify ourselves
against tho temptation to a premature
peace and focus our attention upon the
only solace and advantage the American
people, as a nation, can possibly gain
from this dreadful war-a permanent
peace, founded on the destruction of
despotism and guaranteed by league OF
friendly nations, civilized enough to de-
sire 1t and strong enough to maintain
and enforce 1t.
"The history Of our race and the ne
cessities Of social existence inform us
that among nations the same justice
must apply as amopg individuals. The
essential conceptions Of freedom and
equality are exactly the same and in
each case equally binding.
"All states. great and small, must
be equal before that international law
the world together. Tho, weak nation
has its claim on the law OF nations
as strong and as sacred as that Of the
mighty nation"
Civilized World Aghast.
In bringing his address to a close
the assistant attorney general declar-
cd that "the world cannot admit the
pretensions Of lot Of criminals to
tice and equality or to treat as scraps
Of paper tho treaties intended to make
the world safe for the lesser COM
munities. The civilized world. when
Austria's unthinkable demands on
Serbia were countenanced and sus-
'"The civilized world was assaulted
by the cutthroat and the outlaw. who
had deliberately designed to run
amuck; but, thanks to a God who
giveth us the victory q posse of en-
lightened nations has now been or
ganized. and 1t will be constantly aug
mented until the brute has been made
to bite the dust: II the safety and Sc
curity Of a siAgle state is worth
fighting for. how much more essential
is 1t to preserve tho security Of the
world in the shape Of government by
civilized society. To this end the Free
hooters must be conquered and con-
restored for the law abiding"
In his opening remarks Mr.. Fits
asserted that no people ever drew
the sword in a nobler cause than the
one for which America Is now fight
ing.

DAY FREEDOMS. SYMBOL

Striking messages on the 1929 ami
versary of the birth Of the American
republic have been given to the Amer
lean public by government and Army
officials directly concerned in speed
ing up the war and Its machinery.
Gen. Pershing declares that the ofi-
GERS and men of his command have re-
newed their pledge of fealty and devo-
tion to their country and that "the re-
solve of our forefathers that all men
shall be free Is their resolve" which is

Gen. Pershing's Message.
Gen. Pershing-on this anniversary
of our independence, the officers and
men of the American expeditionary
forces on the battlefelds of France re-
new their pledge of fealty and devo-
tion to our cause and country. The
resolve of our forefathers that all men
and peoples shall be free is their re-
solve. 1t is quickened by sympathy
for an invaded people OF kindred
ideals and the war challenges of an
arrogant enemy. 1t is fortified by the
united support of the American peo-
pie.
Independence for Mankind.
Secretary Baker - When the i'm
perial German government undertook
to dominate the world by the power
of military conquest 1t brought a
new challenge to the United States
of America. We had learned, under
Lincoln, that this naticsl could not
endure half slave and half free"
have warned US that the world can
not continue half slave and half
free" that we cannot preserve our
peace and freedom unless We help to
bring peace and freedom to the
other peoples of the earth. that we
liberties il we allow even little Bel
gium to be deprived of hers.
In that sense this Independence day
of 1918 is the promise and augury of
IN Independence day for all mar
kind. We are nghting for our owr
we snare will save the life of democ-
racy in Europe and in Africa and in
Asia, no less than in America. We
have declared for the self-determina-
tion of all peoples. for their freedom
and independence. And on this Inde-
pendence day we celebrate that dec
laration as much as ours of 1876.
Fresh Baptism for Americans.
Secretary Daniels-The American
people have had a fresh baptism of
tho spirit of sacrifice for liberty which
enabled the men Of seyenty-six to
make the Declaration of Independence
the decree of a powerful nation They
have entered this war to aid in insur-
ing to peaceful peoples freedom from
conquest, and they will not lay down
the sword until the menace Of mill
tarism is lifted from mankind. The
men who have given their lives on
land and sea in this glorious adven-
ture will forever shine in the repub-
lies armament, and we have highly
resolved they shall not have died in
vain. Out of the tragedy Of war the
steady light of peace, guaranteed by
league of all free nations. will
illumine the world.

MAKING sAUER KRAUT

In making sauerkraut for home pur-
poses the outer green leaves of the
cabbage should be removed, pust as
in preparation for boiling. Quarter
the head and slice off the core of each
quarter. Cut into thin slices with
large knife and pack Immediately in
to perfectly clean key, tub, or crock
sailing in proportion to one pound OF
salt to forty pounds OF cabbage. When
the barrel or crock is nearly full, the
cabbage should be pressed down as
firmly as possible and covered with a
clean board. The salt soon extracts
the juice from the cabbage and a
weight of clean brick OF stone should
be added to cause the brine above
the cover. AS soon as gas bubbles
cease to rise, the scum should be re-
moved, if any has formed, and lay
err of hot melted paraffin one-fourth
to one-half inch thick should be pour
ed upon the brine. You may use a
coating of cotton seed oil on the sur
face instead of paraffin and exclude
air from the brine in this way.
In preparing sauerkraut for small
family it is better to use number of
small crooks than just one large con-
tainer. This enables the family to use
only what is needle from time to time
and lessons the danger of spelling.
AS great many of our people have
more cabbage than they can use and
as they have no market for them at
present, we suggest that they save
the cabbage by this method. This
method is given out by the Extension
Division of the Department of Agri-
culture, prepared and used by the
Home Economic Department of the
State College of Agriculture This
recipe is found in bulletin No. 81,
Home Drying of Fruits and Vege-
tables, Brining, Home Made Vine
gar Recipes" Write for the above
bulletin and keep for use.

PRESIDENT APPEALS TO ALL TO
JOIN ARMY OF SAVERS

President Wilson has authorized
the following signed statement
This war is one of nations-not of
arnies-and all of cur one hundred
million people must be economically
and industrially adjusted to war con-
ditions if this Nation is to play its full
part in the conflict. The problem be-
fore us is not, primarily, financial
problem, but rather a problem of in
creased production of war essentials
and the saving of the materials and
the labor necessary for the support
and equipment of our Army and
Navy. Thoughtiess expenditure of
money for nonessentials uses ND the
labor of men, the products of the
farm, mines, and factories, and over
burdens transportation, all of which
must be used to the utmost and at
their best for war purposes.
Urges Practice of Thrift.
The great results which we seek
can be obtained only by the partici-
patton of every member of the Ma
ton, young and old, in a national con-
certed thrift movement | therefore
urge that our people everywhere
pledged themselves, as suggested by
the Secretary of the Treasury, to the.
practice of thrift; to serve the gov
eminent to their utmost in increasing
production in all fields necessary to
the winning of the war: to conserve
food and fuel and useful materials
of every kind; to devote their labor
only to the most necessary tasks, and
to buy only those things which are
essential to individual health and eff
fciency; and that the people, as evil
dence of their loyalty, invest all that
they can save in Liberty bonds and
| war-savings stamps The securities
issued by the Treasury Department
are so many of them within the reach
of every one that the door of oppor-
tunity in this matter is wide open to
all of us. To practice thift in peace
times is virtue and brings great
benefit to the individual at ali times;
with the desperate need of the civiliz-
ed world today for materials and la
Dor with which to end the war, the
triotic duty and a necessity.
, appeals for Economy
Il appeal to all who now own either
Liberty bond or .war-saving stamps
to continue to practice economy and
thrift and to appeal to all who do
not own Government securities to do
| likewise and purchase them to the
extent of their means. The man who
buys government securities transfers
| the purchasing power of his money to
the United States Government until
after this war, and to that same de-
gree does not buy in competition
with the government
81 earnestly appeal to every man.
woman and child to pledge them
selves on or before the 18th of June
to save constantly and to buy as reg
ularly as possible the securities of the
government; and to do this as far as
POSSIBLE through membership in war
saving societies. The 18th day of
June ends this special period of en-
i listment i'll the great volunteer army

bitter debates in months today.

German submarines had been ''invit-

marines are receiving their supplies
from this side of the Atlantic they
are getting them from vessels SNUG
