cry, it has a very different effect. An
American showed me a doll house
which had been stamped fiat under a
German boot with the dolls laid around
il each with its face ground into the
floor by a nailed German heel.
There were much more horrible
things in the house-things beyond de-
scription-but the American rightly
picked that out as most characteristic
and most dastardly. With a look on
his face that would have warned any
opponent to keep his distance, the
American said:
THE next damned German that
tries to murder me had better make
sure that he makes no mistake about
it,"

A MESSAGE TO MOTHERS.

Every mother in the United States
should read the letter written by
Mary Roberts Rinehart, one Of the
foremost ladies of the land, to Secre-
tary of War Baker, regarding hospi-
tai and sanitary conditions in the
arii1y camps and cantonments.
Mrs. Rinehart, whose husband and
son are both in the army, the latter
as private, became alarmed at the
fantastic mass of stories which are
being spread OF inefiiciency, careless
ness and brutality in the military hos
pitals and made personal investiga-
ton OF the camps and environments
with the view Of learning for herself
the actual conditions of things. Her
letter to the Secretary of War, which
tells Of what she found, is message
Of cheer and solace to the. mothers of
America.
Mrs. Rnehart is lady of national
and is one of the best
known writer's of the day. Her sim
cerity and her Judgment cannot be
questioned.

ONLY THE FAULTFINDERS
DISCREDITED.

If the testimony of Secretary o
War Baker served no other purpose i
has shown to the public just how TN,
worthy of future belief are the state
ments OF the men and the newspaDers
who have SO persistently and wilful'y y
accused the administration of inefii.
cheney and incompetence.
Every point under criticism in the
war preparations was taken lip in Mr.
Bakers testimony and the very
things for which the administration
has been the most severely criticized
are shown to have been done upon ex-
pert advice, with the approval of our
army officers and our allies, and to
have been worked ont to the highe st
-dcnrec OF succcAs and eiiiciency--
Mr.. Baker was charged with fail.
ure to advise with experts. The fac's
show that he not only surrounded
himself with experts. but in every in
stance in question has acted upon the
advice oi orr own and the military
experts OF England and France
It was charged that this govern
ment was imposing upon and Grip
ping France by using French artil-
lery, Mr. Baker produced proof that
this was done. not only on the advice,
but at the request of France and Eng
land.
The charge was made that our
troops were sent to France without
sufficient equipment. Mr.. Baker
shows that every man who went to
France was fully and completely
cq,ippcd; that the troops in France
were completely equipped with both
ma ,hinc guns and rifles; that equip
ment will be ready for every man who
will be sent to Europe in the future.
Column after column was filled with
"broomstick preparedness, " 1t is
shown that there are rifles for every
man in training, more than enough
machine guns for training purposes,
and equipment OF all kinds for men
now under arms.
Fantastic tales Of tcrrors in tie
army camp hospitals have been in
dustrious!y circulated. Secretary
Baker shows that with million men
in camps only eighteen arthtntc
cases of brutality or neglect have
been shown and ,lat tie perpetrators
of these have been severely punished
Every charge of inefficiency anh
incompetency against the adn,inistra-
ton has fallen so ridiculously flat as
to prove the utter insincerity Of the
charges
The newspapers and the men who
have SO persistently made and reiter-
ated these criticisms seem to have
succeeded only in thoroughly discred-
iting themselves

SAW BABES ON BAYONETS
German Atrocities Have Not Been

Says.

New York, Jan. 25.-German atroci-
ties have been minimized one hundred
times where they have been nagni-

Club were told today by Capt A. P.
Simmons. a United States military
observer in Germany during the mo-
bilization, having been attached to the
American embassy at Berlin.
Don't 4et anyone tell you that
German atrocities are merely fiction.
Captain Simmons declared. "One of
the most grewsome sights l ever saw
was the impaling OF babies ON the
ends of German bayonets and their
return to frantic mothers. If YOU
knew the horrors that patient, suffer

We've got to sacrifice till the

been obtained, far in excess of the
greatest expectations of those who

DECISION MAY CLOSE

CHICAGO. February 21.-Existence
of nearly every saloon in the business
district Of Chicago depends upon q de-
cision of federal legal officials as to
just what constitutes military post.
It was said today that the question
may be referred to Washington for in
depreciation Of the law giving the
President power to close every drinking
place within half a mile Of a military
post.
Government attorneys here are Of the
opinion that the naval training camp on
the lake front is a military post. but the
Ppoints in doubt are Army headquarters
on North Michigan avenue, the naval in
telligence bureau in the federal building.

A. building. hame Of the Navy Club in the
Chicago and Northwestern railroad sta
ton and the naval training ship tied up in
the river. Should these points be held to
be military posts" it is said, hundreds
of saloons would be put out of business
for the period Of the war. or until the
posts changed locations.
