FOR GODS SAKE,

Ifa brute had attacked your
wife and murdered some of your
childen, would you. while his
hands were dripping red with the
blood OF your loved ones. talk
peace with him? If such a fiend
wanted to discuss peace terms
with you while still attacking
your daughters. would you. fight
with all the power that God gave
yuu, to throttle the beast. or
would you parley back and forth
and suggest that the matter mig.
ht be settled on some basis which
left the rapist and murderer un.
dunished and free to take all the
loot OF which he could rob your
house?
On the battlefields Of Europe our
loved ones are being murdered
for remember Germany's war is q
definite war of murder and out.
rage and every electric spark
which sweeps across the Atlantic
from the trenches in France will
bring an ever.inereasing list of
these murdered men who have
gone out to save us from the at.
tack of the murderer and the
rapist.
Our Allies. who for nearly four
years, with superb heroism and
at a fearful cost of men and
money. have stood between US
and He'll, are calling to US. For
Gods sake. hurry up" ere it be

But we talk about peace, when
there is no possible peace expect

Some men and women do not
yet comprehend the meaning of
this war. some are pro Germans,
some are German spies, some are
towards who disgrace the moth

some are simply plain everyday
fools who should 20 out and root
and live with the swine Of the

be killed for the good Of mankind.
Peace. There can be no peace
between Heaven and He'll nor
between God and Satan!
Peace with the unrepentant. un-

God help our noble men,
And make them loyal and true,
To their country Of the Red White and Blue;
Which they so willingly have offered their hand
To fight or land,
They are aching to get in France.
To fight those Germans oat Of their sense.
1t is hard for the mother to stand
For her dear boy to 20 to the foreign land
Where she is not there his clothes to mend
Where the holes his clothes are waiting for the rain
and wind.
But he laughs and says: Mother don't care"
For you see am in this to do my share"
1t also hard for them to leave their sweethearts so low
ing and gay.
Some had planned to wed each other in the beautiful
month of May,
But now their plans are all in vain
For soon he will have to board the train
To leave her. to fight for his dear land
To see strange faces and be in strange lands
1t is sad for US to give up our friends
For when they leave US we may them again
Yet are hoping and praying that America will win
And then our boys will return home again.
Each mother !, praying for her pet
That he will not fall into the Kaser's net
We believe that Germany is in the wrong
And the Americans belief is strong.
We read the Bible and pray lot;
And we do not believe in the kaiser's plots
Germany thinks in the wrong
But about year from she will sing different song
We are working and planning and learning to knit,
Socks for the soldiers their feet to fit,
For many mile those feet do trod
Obeying orders from the point Of the rod.
Working and fighting for the time to come
When they return to their loved ones at home,
We are trying to be saving with our food
Because our boys must be fed good.
Where they fight in the trenches of sleet ani snow
Waiting for the orders to at their foe,
We must save our country at any cost,
Though many precious lives may be lost.
/ hope soon we will be sure to hear.
Shouts of our soldiers coming so near.
That they have worked and done their Fee
And are coming home to rest and be free.
And have the honor Of a soldier brave and true,
And be worthy to wear their flag of Red White and Blue
Composed by Mary Watson, Union school.
