HAVE. A KNITTING
And SEWING PARTY
METHODIST CHURCH LAWN is
SCENE OF AN INTERESTING
AND HELPFUL OCCASION.

One of the most interesting events
of the past week was the informal
Red Cross knitting and sewing party
which assembled a large number of
women on the Methodist church lawn
at 1870 o'clock Thursday afternoon.
The flower mission department of
the W. c. 7. u, Miss Mary Hornady
superintendent, planned the affair as
a fitting celebration of Flag Day and
the birthday Of Jennie Casseday, the
hopeless cripple girl Of Louisville,
KY, who rose above her infrmities
and distinguished herself in world
wide activities for the relief of suf-
fering humanity. Flags were con-
spicuously displayed under the trees,
and baskets of shasta daisies showed
up well against the green background
of the outdoors. Refreshments con-
sisted of cool water served in abund-
ance.
One of the happiest features of
the afternoon was the presence of a
number of the bright women of Sas-
ser, who have made an enviable rec
ord in war work.
The browning event was the de-
ightful program put on by Mrs. NJ
H. Harper and her medal contest
children with only a few hours no.
tice. The young people were enthu-
siastically greeted as they appeared
in their striking patriotic costumes
marching two and two led by Mrs.
Harper. The readings were all we'll
rendered, but the judges selected
Mollie Stewart and Catherine Jones
as prize winners. BY request little
Miss Josephene Hunt gave very pleas
ingly the reading which won for her
the medal in the recent contest at
the Palace theatre.

that made an American decide a few
years ago to try breeding the sort of
sheep that bear the highly priced

that If they could be bred In Asia,
they could be bred in Kansas, and so

Cause of ApopIexy.

Despite the fact that medical men
look upon apoplexy as nine-tenths pre-
disposition, the courts and laity have
at times regarded it as almost
traumatic in its nature. The physi-
clan thinks in terms of the blood press
ure, hypcrtrophy of the heart and vas
cular degeneration, and to a much less
extent to muscular effort and emotion

Germany's Secret War Council
BY O. J. CAMPBELL Jr, Assistant Professor of English,
University of Wisconsin.
Published under direction of Wisconsin Council of

Austrian premier, admitted to Col. S.
S. Mcclure that Austria believed that
it's attitude toward Servia made the
chances of Russia's interference about
fifty-fifty. Yet her diplOmatists kept
assuring the world that there was no
danger whatever of war. Viviani, the
French Prime Minister, declared on
Aug. 4, 1914, that the Austro- Hunga-
rian government had repeatedly given
assurance that it's demands on Servia
would be extremely moderate. Aus
tria even deliberately deceived one of
her own allies. Berchtold, the Aus
trian foreign minister, while he was
preparing the provocative note to
Servia which brought on the war, as
sured the Italian Ambassador at vi
emma that the situation was not grave.
These are not the actions of nation
with just cause. They constitute a
criminal plot to spring European
war.
Germany knew all along that she
was going to force a general European
war out of the Servian crisis. On
July 81, the transatlantic steamer
Kronprinzessin Cecelie, received a
wireless" in cipher: "War has bro

message was sent out four days be
fore England came into the war and
while Germany was ostensibly making
every effort to avert a general conflict
Austria had wished to settle" the
Servian question as early as the au,
tumn of 1913 Then she suggested to
Giolitti, the Italian minister of For
eign Affairs, that his country join he1
in an attack on Servia. Italy declined
and Austrian statesmen were COM
PEELED to wait for such an excuse as
the murders at Serajevo gave them.
Long before this crime, Germany
had decided that the day was to come
sometime during the second part OF
1914. The year before she had bought
one-half of Americas output of cop
per. In the same year the German
Imperial Bank had made an eXtraor
binary increase in its purchases OF
gold. In 1911 it was TIA million
marks; in 1912, 173 million marks
but in 1913 it was 317 million
marks. In May and June, 1914, she
| called her reservists back from Asia
and Africa. In June arms for cruis
ers were sent to Buenos Aires. Or
June Is contracts were let in America
| for coaling cruisers at sea in August
and September.
The murder of the Austrian Prince
was Germany's opportunity. The Kai
ser and his military advisers dared
not miss this chance. SO a small
group of men sat down together anG
| planned how murder committed by
an irresponsible fanatic could be made
to embroil Europe. So dire an exer
else of autocratic power the modern
world has never seen. That council
cynically decreeing disaster and deatl
to millions of men is autocracy a
work. Against that America is fight
