HUNS TILL THEY CRY, MERCY!
lBy Herbert Felkel.l


AS the war goes on, the Germans be-
coming weaker and the allies stronger
the Teutonic war lords will make more
peace offers and each of these VIII De
more attractive than its predecessor.
AS the war continues. and those who
are near and dear to us are killed and
mangled and as our purses are de-
pleted, there will be talk of accepting
these new peace terms of Germany.
Men will say. The kaiser wants peace;
lets end this terrible thing"
That is what we will have to guard
against.
We want no peace until that race OF
murderers and rapists is wiped of the
face OF the earth, their nation bank
rupt. their insolence banished and their
spirit broken.
Do not permit persons 20 tell you
they are sorry for the German people.
Does anyone mean to say that man
who is a man would execute an order
| to mutilate little children and kill
women? A real man would die before
he would commit those things, regard
less of who ordered him to Or what it
meant to disobey.
| The writer was told BY a British sea
captain that his wife was caring for
! two little Belgian girls who had their
arms cut off at the shoulders by Ger
man swords.
This is no second hand talk. The
man in whose home these children
/ We're housed told this thing to the
i writer of these words. Red Cross
/ nurses have been outraged and cruci-
/ fled to trees with bayonets and the
Red Crosses torn from their breasts
| and tackled on the trees above them.
Germans cut the throat of an Ameri-
can prisoner and left him in their
| trenches, where he was found when
ms comrades recaptured the positions.
| The cowardly ours are lower than any
| living creature that crawls the earth
| Does any man mean 10 say that
humans do these things whether order
ed TO do them or not? No; bruteS do
them It's in their blood, in the blood
of all of them. and may God damn their
| shriveled Souls and torture their foul
bodies in payment The German race
stinks in the nostrils of civilization
Their universities, their so-called edu-
| cation, science and 'ku1tur" were
| camouflages employed by this Jekyl-
| and-Hyde race for ages to shield it's
true self. which at last has torn off
the mask and made itself manifest in
| the dirty deeds of this, the earth's viii
est scum.
Airplanes are being built in thou
sands; and tanks. large and small,
| armored cars of every description, are
in the making. They are pouring
across the sea to Pershing and to
Foch
It is Americas way to do what II
does we'll and finish what it starts.
The draft age limits have been in
creased to eighteen and forty-five.
There will be no halt in the calling
and training and Shipment of men till
five million of them are in Europe,
and maybe not then
The allies are we'll able now to hold
the Germans, to go back to trench war
rare ana prolong the struggle, but that
is not the American way
| Peace by complete victory and in a
hurry is our aim, and enough men
and equipment will bring that about.
They are going to push the Germans
back and back beyond the Rhine and
| into their own country, killing and
capturing them in thousands the while
Then the skies will be blackened
with airplanes from America and the
fields covered with tanks and armored
cars and soldiers, and they will bomb
the German cities. fire their towns and
! villages and shell their farms until
they cry for mercy.
we are going to bomb them and
bomb them and bomb all of them. Yea
veritable hell will pour down on
Germany
Iheh the hounds will pay and paw
with heavy interest for their premedi-
tated savagery and boosted ruthless
ness.
1t Is said that is the plan. Let us
pray TO God that is the plan of Wood
row wilson Let there be no let-up!
Mr. President, give them no peace
