supply them and our allies with food

O0O, 900 Of their money has been loaned
to our allies so that they may prose-
cute the war with vigor and strength.
We here at home have an oppor-
tunity to send the Germans some more
bad news. The Germans have great
respect for money; they know its vital
value in waging war. They know, too,
that the support the American people
give Government loan measures
largely the support they give their
Government, the moral as well as the
financial support they give their
armies in the field.
: A tremendous subscription to the
Fourth Liberty Loan will be as dis
tressing to the German people as a
defeat for them on the battle field, and
it will mean as much. 1t spells their
defeat; it breaks their morale; it
means power to their enemies. A sub
scription to the loan is a contribution
to German defeat ard American vic
tory.

Y. NJ. C. A. Important
Function in Keeping Up
Mental Morale of Army

During the first eighteen months Of
war, as many Canadian and English
soldiers were returned to England be-
cause of mental arrangement as be-
cause of wounds. To prevent the
tragic return of American soldiers
physically fit but mentally unfit fol
war or peace, recreation must be pro-
vided to keep pace with the steadily
increasing numbers of the Expeditions
airy Force.
Vigorous recreational sports play a
vital part of the overseas work of the
Y. M. c. A, whose purpose is to keep
men, enduring the strain and continu-
ed tragedy of war, sane and normal.
Often a man RECEIVERS quickly from his
wounds but with his self-control temp
orarily gone, the haunting memory of
friends shot down, his whole company
perhaps wiped out, threatens to be-
come a fixed state of horror in his
mind. With such cases the Y. M. C. A.
physical directors have been wonder
fully successful; football, baseball or
some energetic sport breaking his
hopeless circle of thought.
The Y. M. C. A. physical directors
are carrying on with our soldiers and
sailors systematic athletic program.
1t, must be extended to correspond
with the amazing growth of our over
seas forces.
Funds necessary for this expansion
are included in the $4,000, 100000, the
goal of the big Y. M. C. A. drive this
fall.
The welfare of our boys, who are
giving their all to uphold Americas
ideals, is the sacred charge of the Am
erican people and Minnesota can not
fail to contribute her proportionate
share.

THE NEW MAN-PowER BILL.

Although Uncle Sam was trlf1e
slow in getting into the world wal
things are now moving with a rapidly
which startles the world.
Although it is only seventeen
months since congress declared that a
state of war existed between the
United States and Germany 100000
sterling fighting men are now IN
France, and as many more are under
going training at home.
Americas first field army is being
organized and before many weeks the
Americans as an individual unit, under
the complete supervision of General
Pershing will be pushing the Hun back
toward Berlin.
Many mistakes have been made and
undoubtedly some graft has crept into
the stupenduous undertaking, but in
spite of the Huns within our gates no
other nation in the world could have
accomplished what the United State.
has accomplished in the same period
of time.
The new man-power bill provides
for the calling to the colors men be-
tween 10 and as years. 1t is expected
that this draft will bring enough men
to increase the fighting force to 4,OOO,-
900 strong without Gripping the in
dustries at home or putting into SER
vice men with families.
- o,o e Of tho hill that
the Herald does not like-the exemp-
ton from service of members of con-
gress, state legislatures and other
public officials.
This looks like class legislation to
the Herald and is not fair to my boy,
and all other boys from Sank Centre,
Minnesota, and the rest of the nation,
who have offered their services to
their country.
Congress has the power to legislate
of course, but why should they be i'm
mune from taking equal chances with
other men eligible to war service ?
During the civil war many members
of congress offered their services to
their country, but the Herald doubts
if dozen members of the present
congress have felt the call of pa
triotic duty on the field of battle.
Many of them would undoubtedly
make better soldiers than they are
statesmen. By voting to exempt
themselves from service one cannot
help but be impressed with the
thought that while they are willing to
place the lives of other American
citizens in jeopardy they are seeing to
it that the personnel of congress can
not be touched for military duty.
In the war game put all Americans,
great or small, rich or poor, office
holder or private citizen, on an equal
footing.-A. M. w.

SOME OF THE BITS YOUR LIBER-
TY BOND WILL DO.

If you buy 800 bond of the Fourth
Liberty Loan you are lending the
United States government enough
money to feed soldier in France a
little more than seven months. Or
you have furnished enough money to
give him a complete outfit of winter
and summer clothing, including shoes
and stockings, and slicker and over
coat and blankets, with enough left
over to arm him with good revolver.
You have done that much to beat back
the Hun.

him this rifle and 1000 cartridges for

BAD NEWS FOR BERLIN.

The war news from the eastern

The Liberty Loan bond buyers of
