Of War Savings Stamps passed

tary of the Treasury announces.
They are now going at the rate of
$11, 100000 per week. The sales
for December amounted to $1O,-
236, 451; for January they rose to
$24,559,722 while February sales
SO far reported amount to $751;
790,170. The sales are being
pushed in all parts Of the United
States. Even in South America
the stamps are popular, and are
pouring funds into the Treasury
Department. These stamp saw
ings are now running at a rate
double the total receipts of the
postoffice department, and double
the customs receipts before the
war. The sales are in excess oil

MAKE YOUR PEANUT BUTTER

Delicious peanut butter-a
highly nutritious food-may be
made at home by grinding the
roasted nuts in a food chopper,
according to Miss Flora Monroe,
director of the cafeteria in the
Kansas State Agricultural col.
lege.
The housewife may vary hel
uses Of this food from the Gus
tomary use in sandwiches. Pud
dings, soups, breads, and cakes
are enriched by the use Of pea
nut butter. It serves both as
shortening and thickening and
adds flavor and color.
The true worth Of peanut but
ter has never been realized, be-
lieves Miss Monroe. 1t has been
generally considered a difficult
food to digest, and, consequently
has been avoided in the diets
When properly masticated it is
easily digested.
A prejudice against peanut but
ter is often caused by Ignorance
in it's use. The butter should bt
combined with twice the amount
Of thin cream or milk, and stirred
until it is Of the creamy consist
ency Of mayonaise. The flavor
can be varied by adding chopped
pickles or olives, catsup, onior
juice, cheese or fruits.
Dates stuffed with peanut but
ter are appetizing. Whole-whea'
mullins, drop cakes, and salads
are q few of the numerous ways
in which this food may be used
It adds a delicious flavor to to
mato soup and increases its fooi
value.
Peanut butter is an important
food in creating bodily heat. 1t.
fuel value is worth three time.
it's weight in round steak, foul
times in eggs, seven times in pc
tatoes and twice its weight il

WARPUNCHES
(By B. F. Trefz)

The man who today asks
why we are in the war should be
interned. IF he asks it twice he
should be shot.
There is no neutral citizen. If
you are not helping in the war,
even if you are in poverty, you
are. a traitor.
If you are a pacifist, or any
other kind of a pro-German, for
Gods sake stand out, declare
yourself and be informed.
IF you believed Germany is the
best country, why in Gods name
did you not go back there. Be-
fore the war any man in the
United States was free to 60 to
the ends of the earth; you had
your chance to go back.
There isn't a man in this coun-
try whom the United States asked
to come here. You came here be-
cause you couldn't make a living
in the old country, or because you
didn't want to stay in the lower
classes.
This country was made by men
who gave their blood for freedom.
Because these men died for free
dom the United States doesn't
propose to stand for any pro-Ger-
man talk.
I want to warn every pro- Ger
man that the day is going to come
when the hook Of casualties will
burden the hearts of our mothers
and fathers. When the beating
blood of their boys has conse-
Grated the soil Of France, they
will see to it that pro- Germans
are shut up forever, and this will
be within the next six months.
God help the pro-German in
America today. I warn you right
now.
If I could transfer the people Of
the United States to Northern
France for twenty-four hours, SO
that they could see what has been
done by the Germans, they would
end the war in ninety days.
There isn't man who would not
lay his farm or business on the
altar.
I saw the wife of the president
of the Chamber Of Commerce in q
French town who had been
ravished by the Germans. I had
met her in Boston some years be-
fore. She had been forced to
work with a pick and shovel, and
at night was chained to black
worlmen from German Africa.
Some of you may say that I am
lying. I will meet any man out
side who wishes to make this
statement. broke up a pro-Gsr-
man meeting in New York, and
was in the hospital for five days.
Later I broke up another one.
j White bread is q sacred bread.
a consecrated bread. Let us save
it for our soldiers and the sold
iers of our Allies.

Within the last few days the
America First Association of Min
nesota has been signally honored
IN two ways, each entirely dis
tinct from the other.
In the first place, Robert w.
Hargadine, secretary, was advised
by Chairman George Creel, fed
eral committee on public informa.
ton, Washington, that the Amer
lean First Association had been
designated an agency for carry
ing on Americanization work
among the foreign born residents
Of the state.
This work of Americanization.
defined by Chairman Creel, con-
sists of instructing foreign born
residents in the English language
maintaining information centers
to aid immigrants, holdings meet
ings, with addresses, to bring
about unity Of immigrant peoples
adopting safeguards against anti
American propaganda, and bring
ing foreign born people together
in common loyalty to America.
The second instance in which
the America First Association has
been honored is in its being made
the nucleus for national Amer
lea First organization. This is
the plan, at least, of patriotic citi-
zens OF Montana and Pacific coast
states. At their invitation Sec.
Hargadine recently made a trip
to these states and explained the
method of organization, plans and
results accomplished in Mime.
sofa. As a result work is already
under way to form similar asso-
Citations in Montana and other
states.

"When Germany was defeated
at the Marine, only $4,000 Of the
10000 were left.
Germany cannot win this war.
To win she must have done it
more than three years ago, when
she had 100000 trained men
armed with great guns, the exist
ence of which surprised the
world.
cat Ypres the English didn' t
have anything but old fashioned
field pieces from the Boer war.
They had to face 100000 Ger
mans and rely on the bayonet.
General French had to place
his men six feet apart to meet
Germans four deep shoulder to
shoulder.
cit was a miracle when the Brit
ish won that battle, a miracle
equal to those, of Israel when God
was behind her. In the Ypres
fight four out of five Canadians
were killed, and twelve out of
thirteen British.
Behind those Britishers was
the road to Calais, to England to
the United States. They saved
the world by that victory.
eff the United States will do SO
per cent according to her strength
of what England has done and is
doing, we will close the war in a
short time. 1 take off my hat to
the tight little isle. Before the
war I was anti-British.
j. "In France every man from
twenty to forty-eight is at the
front. There are no exemption
boards.
Mr.. Trefz asserted that Amer
lea is doing more in the war in a
shorter space Of time than any
other nation, and said that cri-
tics Of the government are in the
wrong.
General Petain and General
William Robertson, the British
chief Of staff, both have said," he
declared, "that the American
troops are the finest they have
seen, and that the United States
has done more in equipping and
moving troops in a few months
than any military commander in
the history of the word.
"Once in a while here is a foul
strike down at Washington, and
you hear lot about it. But for
every foul there are fifteen home
runs.
81 am forty Eight years old
and I am going to fight for Amer
lea this summer if they will let
me. I would rathre die at forty
eight, than live to be ninety, sit.
ting in the grandstand and see.

p3dd go by without having part

I Mr.. Trefz, in illustrating the
shortage of -four in France, said
that a French hero who had
crawled into No Mans Land to
save his colonel from death, and
had received a decoration which
only three men have won since
the beginning of the war, de
clared himself grealy honored
when half loaf Of white bread
. was presented to him.
