DIXON'S LECTURE MADE
A fine IMPRESSION
Continued From Page Three.)

Continued From Page Three.)
Fund, the knights of Columbus and
the Salvation Army drives were re-
ceiving too much attention; he fear
ed lest the attention of the American
people might be drawn away from
the main object-the making of the
world safe for Democracy-by these
lesser matters.
He told how the Red Cross had off
set the German propaganda in
France, propaganda that was be-
ing insidiously spread for the pur-
pose of creating distrust of America
long before American troops arrived,
then he told Of war conditions, how
the Germans in the various villages
which they had taken had gathered
together all of the old men and the
young men, too young to fight, and
had put them IL some building large
enough to hold them, usually
church, and then had gone through
the village collecting all of the wines
they could find and drinking it, and
then had attacked the women and
young girls, this privilege being
granted them by their officers.
This he stated could be proved not
only by the testimony of those who
had passed through the living hell
that such conduct created, but by
the Germans themselves, captured
Germans telling of just such occur
rences in town after town History
does not recount that any race since
the beginning Of the world has ever
been guilty of such terrible crimes
and outrages as those perpetrated ky
the German army, and that, too, with
the consent of its officers, and, of
course, with the consent of the Kali
ser; in fact, it seems more than like
ly that it is the Kaiser and his asso-
ciates who are directly responsible
for such conduct
1t is fight of Autocracy against
Democracy, and if the former wins,
then Democracy must perish from
the world, and if the latter wins. Au-
tocracy must perish from the world.
The speaker advocated the use of
great numbers of air battle ships to
win the war; the way by land and
sea may be blocked for years, but
there are hundreds of paths from the
air, and by the use of these, Berlin,
Vienna, and every other important
city in Germany and Austro-Hungary
could be laid in waste and the war
be brought to speedy close, for no
government could stand to see it's
cities and towns destroyed, one after /
the other, and upon schedule time,
without realizing that it was beat.

Automobile Owners and Drivers
TAKE NOTICE

Our local authorities for several
months have not strictly enforced
the law with reference to lights on
automobiles when at rest. A STATE
representative was in town last week
and a number OF people paid tine
for not having their cars lighted
while at rest on the street.
There appears to be tendency on
the part of the State authorities to
enforce this law. Drivers are not
familiar with all automobile laws,
neither are lawyers, but the law
should be enforced, and in view of
the fact that it has not been for some
time, | feel that the people should
be notified before any arrests are
made.
The law is:
when nj rest, an automobile shall
display at least one light, showing
white to the front and red to the
rear, carried 10 the left of the motor
vehicle, visible from both front and
rear, for a distance of not less than
two hundred feet
