The Bazaar committee reports
that the net sum of $10,289, ,55
was realized fir m the recent ba-
zaar held here for the benefit of
the Czcehoslovak army which is
now fighting the Huns in France,
Italy and Russia. These B0hemi
an soldiers are .deserters from the
Austrian army and it is cla med
that when the war broke out al
most 250,000 of Bohemian soldiers
surrendered to the Russians and
then joining the Russian forces
fought their oppressors, the Aus
trians and Germans. An army of
about $4,000 of these men are now
in control of Siberia and thus
have cut the Huns from a supply
of grain which they have hoped to
get in Russia. Shortly after the
collapse of Russia these men knew
where to strike, being thus betray
ed by the Russians, and destroyed
all the grain in the fields of u
kraina, the grain store of Russia
and when the hordes of Huns
reached that Russian province
they failed to find bread. Natu-
rally Germany is worried and is
numbering people in Bohemia.
But the proud spirit of Bohemia
will not be subdued. Only three
months ago this small country
thru her representatives declared
a republic whose provisional head
is Prof. Thomas G. Masaryk, now
visiting this country. Bohemia
wants to be freed from the Ger
man yoke and will be freed, since
there is no reason why a cultural
nation, standing far above that of
its oppressor, who happens to be.
numerically superior, should be
enslaved.

inmate. Any man with honor
and knowing what the German
barbarians are doing would be a.
shamed to talk in this language.
Furthermore, no one else but the
Germans in this country are the
ones who have been discriminating
in favor of their god, the Kaiser,
and have been stabbing Us in he
back. The only way to stop Ger
man propaganda here is to stop
everything German. We would
also suggest, since it cannot be
done now, that all persons who
have been known to side with Ger
many before we declared war, but
now are quiet for fear of getting
into trouble, that after the war
their property is confscated and
they are shipped back to the land
of their barbaric ideals. Every
thing indicates that this will be
done. If this great country has
to take a back seat in the eyes of
the pro-German sympathizers
there is no place for them here.
Let them get to hell out of here
we can get along without them, as
