WHAT THE HUN HAS DONE.

pie. You have to hand it to- them
Wonderfully Efficient"
Mr.. Harry Lauder. the keen Scot
has thus punctured this bubble:
what, then" he inquiries, has the
boastful Hun givn to the world? DID
he discover or invent or perfect
Gas? No.
Electricity? No
The steam engine? No.
The telephone? No.
The telegraph? No.
The submarine? No.
The automobile? No.
The airplane? No.
Anaesthetics? No.
Aseptic surgery? No.
The treshing machine or the farm
factor? No.
The phonograph? No.
To which list might be added the
typewriter, the cash register, the tele-
scope. the adding machine, the sew
ing machine, and cotton gin. and a
host Of other things that have promot-
ed the welfare of mankind.
Still, the Hun excels nsome ways.
For instance:
He has made war more atrocious
than any other human being since the
Red Indian and the Barbary pirate.
He stands alone, supreme. wrap
ped in the solitude of his own immen-
sity' in his bold disregard of human
ity. His inhuman outrages in Begl-
ium and Poland easily excel what aly
Englishman could do.
His support Of Turkey in that das-
tardly massacre of Armeniar5 could
not be equalled by any of the Allies.
He is far and away our superior in
breaking treaties, as with Belgium
We couldn't do that
In the matter of spies and their dirty
work ne is a world beater.
No italian, Frenchman, Britisher or
American can touch him when it
comes to fighting women and children.
He bombards hospitals. torpedoes
hospital and merchant ships, carries
the civilian population of an invaded
country off into slavery, starves, mutt
Iates and insults prisoners of war and
in similar sneaking, dishonorable and
cowardly acts of ferocity is plainly our
master.
He was the first to use poison gas
and other excellencies of frightfulness.
He has the nerve, while doing all
this to talk of his kultur, of the super
iority of German "civilization" and be-
ing the "superman." Granted! No
thing this side of hell is superior to
him in his line,
He is beyond us all in egotisni.
Englishmen are a bit chesty and
Frenchmen and Italians boast occas
ionally and we are not above blowing
our own horn ourselves now and then.
But our hats are OIL 10 tne nuns.
Egotism is his. He wrote it. We are
poor pikers.
And above all the Hun has remov-
ed God Almighty from his throne and
substituted almighty Germany. All
the Ten Commandments are off. The
Beautitudes are piffie Any crime you
want to commit, lying, stealing, assas-
sination, treachery, rape or mayhem,
is glorious if it's done for the father
land.
Yes. the Hun is wonderfully effic-
lent in deviltry. That's about all.
And when it comes to that he makes
old Beelzebub grit his teeth.

The people of Colorado and espe-
cially some Negroes will have to
choose between Mr.. l.. c. Phipps and
Mr.. Chas. w. Waterman for the nom
ination for the U. S. Senate. To the
Star the Negro duty is clear. Both
gentlemen are Republicans: both able
men and both white. Does the race
owe either Phipps or Waterman any
thing for favors or services? Who is
prejudiced: who is not; who is friend
ly, who is not; who has helped the
greatness Of our race or individuals
and who has not; who has given to
our race and has shown interest in
us. not by hot airy words" but by
actual deeds and who has not; who
has helped our churches, club women.
Y. NJ. c. A. and who has not? Mr..
Waterman does not even claim that
he has ever done anything or that he
will ever do anything for you or I.

other way than to nominate our true

Fashions Wise Economy.

Dame Fashion has taken Economy
for her watchword in preparing her
winter styles. She uses expensive
furs, but she uses them discreetly, a
broad band across narrow panel, a
pocket, crushed collar instead of a
wide-spreading cape. She combines
serge and satin in many of her most
fetching frOcks, and what she lacks
in over draperies, although she still
uses them, she makes up for in rows
of silk braid or fringe. AS a practical
garment for street wear in the fall,
she brings out the man-tailored, semi
fitting suit, with no other trimming
than silk-braid bindings, arrowhead
embroidery and bone or self-covered
buttons. Other suit models are less
severe, with jackets of finger-tjp
length, uneven around the hem and
with fur-trimmed panels.
