GLYNDON DELEGATES
+" ITS SERVICE FLAG

Service flag. dedication exercises
were held In the auditorium OF the
Gyndon consolidated schoolhouse
Sunday afternoon. Stars on the flag
represent the IA young men of the
neighborhood who have Joined the
colors. An impressive feature Of the
service was the honor roll call when
the name card of the soldier was re-
moved from the flag and given to
his nearest relative.
DR.. Frank A. Weld Of the Moor
head Normal school gave the adj
dress in which he urged the import
ance Of everyone learning the truth
about the war. He traced the
history of the German people from
the time Of Frederick the Great to
the present; and showed how they
have developed their machine like
system. both military and social.
The musical program included
choral and quartet numbers of pa
triotic hymns and anthems. There
was a large audience present and
all showed a fine patriotic spirit.

SCHOOL SYSTEM
Pres. Weld Says American
Schools Must Be Made
Equal To Task

The last number in the series of ad-
dresses given before the Mems Semin-
ar Of the Congregational church this
winter, was delivered Sunday morn
ing. by Pres. Frank A. Weld, who
spoke on the subject, Education in
AttrIbuting the power of Germany
as military nation, to her system
or education which has through these
years carefully guarded every activi-
" that could have a possible bearing
upon success in arms, President Weld
showed now that people, once weak,
almost helpless, as the result Of the
wars of Napoleon, came back" with
such increase in power and resources
as to enable them to defy the entire
world.
THE German schools are nothinr
less than military schools where boys
not only have impressed upon them
the spirit OF devotion to and sacrifice
for for country. but they are equipped
with military technique as the re-
suit OF daily drill that would enable
them to step into the ranks of the
army at any time and successfully do
their part. We here in America are
pleading for world safe for democ-|
racy. Across the sea the Germans are
stopping at nothing that will make
the world safe for the Germans. The
ambition has been fostered since the
days OF Bismarck. Since that time the
supreme desire in the Germans mind
has been for Germany to become a
world people and for the Germans to
absorb the world into themselves.
This desire has been greatly strength
ened by the teaching that the Ger
man race was chosen by God to rule
the world, that the house of Hohen-
Eollern was the accepted agent, aud
that force was the means by which
the plan was to be worked out But
the world rebelled at the means to
be employed. We, along with other
have for years been encour-
aging this mounting egotiBm OF Ger
many. Now we are discovering where

must cost to break il down.

of Germany can be met, Is |

London. March rs. - The Dutch
cabinet is said to have decided Sun
day to send the allied powers a
formal refusal Of their offer Of grain
in return for Dutch ships, a dispatch
from The Hague to The Daily Mail
says.
Amsterdam. March 24.-The seizure
Of the Dutch ships is characterized
by The Nieuwe Rotterdamsche Cour-
ant as an "act of robbery and a stain
on the history Of the United States
that cannot be wiped out in decades"
On the other hand Ii believes this
solution is the best which un6ek the
circumstances could be attained.
There is no resisting, ii says, Of
organized injustice for the small
country like ours when faced by
practically half of the world. Not
only have the associated governments
removed the last semblance of right
from their iron fist deed and openly
exposed themselves as militarists
with whom necessity knows no moral
or legal law. but we avoid Holland
itself becoming an accomplish to an
action which cannot bear the light
Of day"
Stockholm, Friday. March 22.-The
seizure or Dutch tonnage in allied
ports is strongly criticized in press
comment here. The social Demo-
kraten which is friendly to the allies,
says: These violent measures. even
though it is true that in the last
analysis they were called forth by
brutal German methods of warfare
and Germany's threatening attitude,
nevertheless are a gross violation Of
a neutraps rights and deeply COM
promise the high ideals which the
allies declare inspire them in their
conflict against German militarism,"

its comment to ''the gentlemen who
in the olden days on the highways

the trigger used to demand the way
