Thoughts of Today
Burned Into Their Hides.

Germany is like the woman whom
Satan had bound 10! these forty years,
and there is only one VINO can release
her.
Her leaders have reiterated over
and over again, "Thus saith Bernardo" +"
"Thus saith Nietischi" Cor whatever
way the barbarian's name is spelleO ),
"Thus saith Science" but never "Thus
saith the Lord"
The people have worshiped Baal, the
God of Nature, instead of the God of
Revelation, and to this their miserable
end is due. They scoffed at such
Scripture warnings as this, "Pride
goeth before destruction and naughty
spirit before fall" but now they are
about to have these words burned into
their hides. There are a few others
that will scar them, but the first
named will be the text to which they
will sadly assent.

Country Out for a Knockout.

President Wilson asks that he be
supported by the election of Demo-
cratic Congress. Well, as one who
voted for the President twice, I can
only say that if we can get assurances
from the Democratic candidates that
they will come out 1atfooted for the
annihilation of Germany's military and
naval power, for the refusal to Ger
many of the return of her colonies and
for the elimination of the German
navy and merchant marine by the de-
privation of her seacoast, why, think
the Democratic party will be unani-
mously elected and not single Re-
publican gain a seat The only chance
the Republicans have is the fear of a
let-up on Germany by the election of
pacifist Democrat. This country is
out for a knockout"

Germans Lowest Form of Humanity.


The Germans are really today the
very lowest form of humanity. 1t was
always supposed that the black men of
Australia were as degraded as it was
possible for men to be, but this was a
mistake. 1t has been found that ow-
ing to their fear of the white man the
blacks concealed by general consent
all evidences of their worship. They
feared the white man might injure
their gods, and so to protect them they
pretended to ignore all ideas of the
supernatural. Now the Germans have
openly and .avowedly thrown over all
Christian ideals and substituted there
for the ancient myths and supersti-
tions of Thor, well knowing and ad-
mitting them to be myths and super
Stitions. What German minister, or
priest, ever quoted one paragraph from
the Sermon on the Mount" that you
can call to mind? You know the diff
ference between the animal and the
man is entirely that of religion. No
animal can ever be taught an idea of
a future life, whereas in the child it is
an intuition. So when we find the Ger
mans abandoning religion as they
have done they return to the animal
state and must be classed as such.

"Some" German Generals.

Do you recognize the two generals,
General Debility and General Apathy,
two Crown Princes? They did bring
General Retreat into German army
command, as 1 forecast they would
do. The next in command will be Cen
eral Collapse, and when he gets going
France and Belgium will be totally
free for all time. General Surrender
will be the final commander, and then
we can all breathe freely, with all
fears of General Discussion removed
for good.

No German seaboard,

The idea of ending the hopes of the
Germans to return to the sea has
found welcome in many minds in Pali-
sade and elsewhere. "No German sea-
board' is the motto that every one
should adopt if they have any mem
Ory of submarine and raider atrocities.
Never let these villains launch anoth-
er ship. The seacoasts of Holland
and Denmark must be joined and Po-
land and Russia complete the coast
line on the Baltic For years to come

Unconditional Surrender Button.

The chiefs of the allied armies have
been awarded the Distinguished Serv-
ice medals-Generals Foch, Joffre,
Haig and Pershing. / wonder if they
all feel as proud and happy as the
wearer of the Unconditional Surren-
der" button? The man that walks
down the street wearing one of these
buttons seems to walk on air. He has
found way to express the inmost Sc
cret desire of his heart. Put on one
of these buttons and try it out. What
a twinkling glow of geniality is diff
fused over the neighborhood when two
of these button wearers meet!

The Grown Chump.

We hear nothing about the Crown
Chump nowadays. Where is he? 1t
was a strange omission to leave him
out of the list of those who were to re-
ceive the Distinguished Service medal
because he did more than any one else
to bring about a German disaster. OF
course we can't say as bad about him
as he can do, but still he ought to have
some recognition, don't you think?

Governor Frazier has called a special
session of the legs azure 10 convene on
January 9th. The session is called ac-
coordlng to statements in the message.
for the purpose of extending the bond
ing credit of counties in order to provide
seed grain to settlers IN the western
part of the state where che crop was
short last season. If the governor will
see that Mr.. Townley and his five lieu
tenants who sat as tribunal debating
to the legislators what to 90 at the last
session will stay way we can expect re-
suits beneficial to the state. But if
this "body" is there swinging their "big
stick" over those who do not agree with
them the result will probably be what
can be expected.

from the furnaces to the chimney in the
basement caught on fire and resulted in
what we call burning out chimney.
In some unknown manner the heat
started blaze IN between the ventlla-
ting shafts and the chimney in the attic.
AS soon as this blaze broke out in the
attic it spread very rapidly and it was a
question of but very few minutes un.
til the whole attic was ablaze.
All the fixtures IN the the upper rooms
and much material stored in the attic,
especially wireless apparatus, was burn
ed. Most of the library was taken out
but here also there was some loss and
this will be further aggravated by dam
age from rough handling and snow.
The beautiful electric master clock was
damaged and the electric bell system en-
tirely destroyed. The greatest loss to
fixtures was suffered in the chemical
and physical laboratory. The fire broke
through the ceilings quickly IN this Sec
tion of the building and only two cases
Of physical apparatus was saved, and
much Of this suffered damage while
being taken ont especially the electrical
instruments. The entire chemical
equipment including the chemicals was
burned. *. {

THE PROGRESS OF THE WAR.

The week has witnessed very little
fighting and made no changes in the op-
posing lines on any front.
The most remarkable circumstances
of the time have been the statements of
Lloyd George and President Wilson de-
fining the objects of the war on the
part of the entente allies. While both
statements are still somewhat ambigu-
GUS in certain details, yet on the who
they are very clear. and in this regard
much more so than the statements of
the German and Austrian authorities.
Reading between the lines of all these
declarations it is evident that the future
status of Alsace-Loralne is perhaps the
biggest stumbling block in the way of
peace, though Poland and the Balken
states bring serious difficulties.
The talk of the Austrian envoy to the
Russian peace parley shows that Ger
many not only wants her Alsace Lorraine
and her African colonies but desires
either actual possession or a dominating
influence over considerable former Rus.
sian and Balkan territory. The British
premier and the President eveidently ex-
pect to give Alsace to France, and per-
haps allow half dozen new autonom les
to be created "by the consent of the
governor" Perhaps there is nothing
more settled by these statements OF war
purposes, then the fact that there can
be no peace until these questions are
settled by force of arms.
One feature of these declarations by
the President is the fact that for first
time in history. the United States has
stepped directly into the arena as one of
the nations of the world. A few years
ago this country avoided all European
complications as none of our business.
To-day we are assuming practically the
office of arbitrator for all Europe and
attempting to enforce that arbitration
with our armed strength.
One hundred years ago, thirty days
was about the shortest possible period
of communication between Europe and
America. To-day we read Of battles
there that when we look at our clocks,
apparently. will not occur for several
hours later. That "the world does
move nevertheless" has added meaning
since it was spoken by Gallaleo. The
progress OF the world mad brought US in
close proximity TO Europe. We are
compelled to accept the inevitable situa-
tion. That is Why the President assum-
es to dictate to Europe. and that is why
we are 10 this war. The great seas no
longer isolate US.
