 Idea From Story.
 The organized drive to eliminate the last trace of Hun propaganda is the SCI lllllldllOil Ol lut lutot CNOlNtd Dg Henry Irving Dodge, author and Amer ican propagandist, who has also made arrangements to finance the campaign without outside help. MT Dodge says that when he put his ideas in story form, he expected them to have effect only upon those whom he reached through the printed pages of his book but the effect of his message has gone | far beyond this. This word picture ht drew of the deadly human Yellow Dog" has stirred the dormant spirit ol | tolerance into aggressive patriotic ac- | tion and the plans he successfully car ried out in fiction are being made { reality and spreading like wild fire.
 The Last Hole.
 | This inclination on the part of si many Americans to thoughtlessly re peat groundless Fumors is the only big medium of circulation not ye closed to the spread of German propa ganda, but with the organization O Boy Detectives of the Anti Yellow Dos clubs, this last avenue of distribution will be closed to our enemies.
 Yellow Dogs are to be found every where. and therefore to be effective the Yellow Dog drive will take in ever! city, town and hamlet of the country and it is estimated that over twent! million boy patriots will shortly b' | enrolled in the ranks of the Boy De tectives. A force that in numerica strength and sound American .spiri will overwhelm the secret agents O the kaiser. who start the destructiv stories that are thoughtlessly repeated by American citizens.
 Slips Summons.
 The plan of the campaign is to en roll all American boys of ten year and older, supply each boy with membership card and book of rule and under the direction of matur leadership have them challenge ever one they hear making an unpatrioti statement or repeating a dishearten ing rumor. Each Boy Detective car ries a supply of slips, known as sum monses. that contain the printed ques ton, Are You a Yellow Dog" and list of definitions that distinguis the thoroughbred American from tn mongrel citizen.
 Enrolment blanks, membershi cards and books of instruction are be ing sent from the national headquar ters without charge to all responsibl persons who will undertake the for nation of Anti Yellow Dog clubs an agree to wage a vigorous campaign fo the suppression of all forms of dis loyalty.
