The National Defense Society

100000 Americans automatically
pledged not to buy anything made
in Germany. And. pledge or no
pledge. there couldn't possibly be
any buying of German-made
goods in this generation, and per-
haps in the next, by any one in
the United States. "Made-in-

We are made happy by COM
PARSONS and especially by fiat

likes to own a dog that will lick

The man with hundred mil

to lick his feet, cringe, bow and
rush at his nod. That makes him
feel superior
We have seen an owner OF in

back like a shingled roof, look &C

four men with powdered hair, silk

Puritan clergymen once preach
ed that the saved souls in heaven
were made happier by looking
down upon the tortures of the
damned.
In the days of Cotton Mather's
barbarity you would not deprive
the blessed an occasional peek in
to hell. In these days of financial
barbarity, who would deprive the
rich vulgarian of the only out
ward proof of his superiority?
The rich man is at his door, the
butler takes his orders. The valet
hands him hat and stick. The
footman opens the door OF his
limousine. The chauffer tips his
cap, and wheels revolve at his
command, and he thinks that the
earth does likewise.
The passion for lackeys is strong
in the human heart. AS great a
man as Francis Bacon, greatest
mind since Aristotle. took brides
and ruined his life that he might
have many lackeys going before
him when he rode out.

FIGHTING AMERICANS.

Germany looks upon the accom- plishments by the American forces as of little or no importance. It consid- CTS that what has been gained is of small account and of course it may be justified in that view when con- sideration is given to all the terri tory which it has been taking in it's drives, but it cannot overlook the sig nificance of the manner in which the Teutonic troops have not only been stopped in their efforts to get DOS session of an open route to Paris but forced to give up positions which were of special value in such an un- dertaking.
 The fighting which the Americans have been doing around Chateau Thierry and to the northwest of that point makes it evident that they are giving the Germans more to think about than was expected from quick ly trained Yankees. They have showr not only that they are fighters but that they are not easily forced tc abandon their undertakings once they plunge into the fight, ands Germany must realize that the help whicl America is to give the allies Is more than was anticipated from con temptible little army.
 Wherever the Americans have beer tried out they have been found to b. q hard force to contend with. Thi was shown at Seicheprey, at Cantig ny and in the latest display of thei fighting ability. Germany can wei k.4a acf nf ,fs all trained. and this applies to tn youngest as well as the oldest bu they are being driven into the figh while the American soldiers and ma rines are fighting for themselves an, humanity. They are fighting fo principles and not for conquest an, proving a hard antagonist and thi Germany as well as the allies hay come to know, even if it does not ad init 1t.

MEN WHO CAME BACK
WORK OF RED CROSS AND
 STRETCh;ER BEARERS.
By Private Hugh Fleming,

By Private Hugh Fleming,
 Co. c. 1st Battalion, British Expedl-
 tionary Forces.
 I was an observer, on special duty, for the first Battalion of Lelcesters and Bluffs Having been gassed at Ypres and wounded by machine gun bullet, 1 got all that was coming to me, and I can't speak too highly Of the Red Cross work over there. And of the courage of our stretcher bear CTS. Here is an example of it:
 I was gassed at two o'clock in the afternoon. At seven that night two stretcher bearers found me and pre- pared to carry me back to the dressing station. At that moment a Hun ex- plosive struck the top of the shoulder of one of the men, and he had to be helped back by his coworker. The latter soon returned with another streteher bearer to help carry me back This new stretcher bearer was killed when within hundred yards of me, and then the first man by a supreme effort, carried me back him self Talk about courage and hero ism!
 Some of my special work as an ob- server was exciting. One time l was out after spy and had considerable difficulty in proving | was not spy myself This is what happened: We saw a light flash at intervals back of our lines It appeared to be signal ling to the German front line trench es. I started out to investigate, as this was my special job. 1 went of hastily not thinking 1 would have far to go, so did not trouble to get a pass 1 On [ went until suddenly halted bS guard There was nothing to dt but to yield or face his gun. He dit not believe my story. To the Divis ional fead1uarters I had to go, while 1 the real spy and the signalling con. tinued their work. I told my stor. to the British General before whom was taken. Neither did he believe me He called up the o. c. at thu Battery Headquarters at I Farm sure he had secured a Hun passint himself of as a Canadian. My o. c. of cource, verified my statements, a1s was given the necessary paper tt | permit me to carry on. But it wal too late and the signalling had ceased
 The next night the light began flashing again, but a mile and a hal | farther to the right. By the time VI got across the trenches and crossed the roads it had stopped. The mex day I spent surveying this ground. found a man ploughing field. He wa loafing on the job and it was very ev ident that ploughing was not his mai object there.
 | We discovered later that one ma ploughed and got information an
 sniped our lines, and his brother in law did the signalling in the evening The papers found on them told tn
 story.

to the men by the employers should be accepted and the men should re- turn to work while the differences of opinion are to be submitted to the war labor board at wAshington the decision of which Is to be accepted by both sides
 Of all times this is one when com mon sense should prevail and the agreement reached must be so re- garded The final adjustment bids fair to be reached in accord with the facts as they exist and not as the re- suit of pressure. The one regret fl, the whole matter, and this is too often the case. Is that this solution of the trouble was no. resoreed to before taere was any strike and before the public was denied the service upon which they place so much dependence The fact that there is a third party involved is invariably disregarded en- tireiy. Sometimes it is done unques- tionably to arouse sympathy in be- half of the strikers but there is f1t good reason why the adjustment oi labor disputes ought not to be made in the great majority of cases in ac- cord with the cold, hard facts.

THE NEW GERMAN THREAT.

It was the privilege Of Germany to ask through the Swiss government for the exchange of Franz von Rintelen and to offer to give up Siegfried Paul London an American by naturaliza- ton who is under arrest and sentence in that country on charge of being a Russian spy. But when 1t accompan- jed that offer with threat that re- prisals would be resorted to if the re- quest was not compiled with it couldn't have made a greater mistake
 Germany gives evidence by resort ing to such action that there is some reason why it is particularly anxious to get Rintelen back to Germany. He was one of the active members of the enemy's agents in this country and led the bomb plotters in the blowing up of ships and factories. being the financial head of this work in the United States He is now serving a sentence at Atlanta following his. con- viction and it has been claimed that he is relative of the kaiser Such being the case the anxiety of the German government to secure his re- lease may be explained but it is quite evident that it has used the wrong method to secure it
 When it comes to making reprisals Germany should consider the posi- ton of this country in such a matte. and in this connection Secretary Lans- ing well said in his reply 'It would be wise for the German government that if it acts on that principle it vii be inevitably understood to invite similar reciprocal action on the par of the United States with respect tc the greater number Of German sub jects in this country" Germany fol once better stop and think what thl shaking of it's fist in such a manner l might mean. German threats haven frightened the United States as yet

NEW HANDBAGS.

The bag has this year assumed a leading role in the realm of dress. for formerly it's function was purely utilitarian. It was entirely recepta- cle of service, but today it is an in tegra1 part of the costume and by no means so insignificant as it's size might lead one to summarize. Where once upon a time one bag was considered quite sufficient for any we'll dressed woman, nowadays, two, three, four and even five bags are scarcely enough.
 That old fashioned receptacle of leather which we were wont to think indispensable because of it's wearing qualities is this season conspicuous by it's absence, the bags of satin, vel vet or beads entirely nionopolizing the field in the handbag world.
 The most favored bag is without doubt the beaded one, which may be entirely of beads or in eombina tion of beads and satin. Another leader is 1 the bag made of very handsome mate- rial, such as satin brocade in gold or silver. One of these bags was seen recently. This bag had the lower part made of navy blue satin with green urocadsd design. The beaded ornament was in green and blue while large green beads marked ths

While every member will do his bit, there are hundreds of others who must naturally feel that such a novel Fourth of July celebration is a noble one
 Even children have already promised to do without one or two punches of firecrackers and help swell the fund All aboard the Spanish war. train, Let's help all we can to build a big tin can for the Nutmeg boys to attach to the posterior of the wicked kaiser and his horde of Huns.
 No men in the entire armies of Flu rope have done better work than our own 102d. No better use can be made of those extra dimes than to hand them to Hon. Milo R. Waters, Nor wich. Hon. Frank P. Fenton, Wi1liman- tic. or Fred E. Kies of Danielson.
