THE moLLYcooDLE BRIGADE.

Tie trouble with a lot of perfectly honest and we'll
intentioned people in this world is that they are afraid
to look their dog in the face.
In the matter of the war and its conduct they do
not seem inclined TO face unpleasant facts that may be
brought to their attention They admit that there is a
war but yet they try to save as much of their skin as
possible and dodge the truth They want this country
10 conduct its part of the war in a halfhearted fashion;
they would have it reluctant and hesitant in going to
the limit. They are in reality the best friends our
enemies have on this side if the Atlantic. The kaiser in
all his dire need of friends could not have anyone who
could carry on his propaganda here better than the
people who are skinsavers.
This class hees and haws and raises its eyebrows
and querously deprecates the idea Of war for wars
sake. 1t would have a nice little lady-like war-a now
f-you-dont-sto p-Iu Il slapyourfac idea of a war. 1t
gives them the shivers to think about wounds and ban
dages and suffering and death and cofhns. They think
it a terrible thing that some of our boys smoke cigar
cites at the front. 1t makes them gasp to think Of a
cold weary soldier drenched to the marrow having a
noggin of rum before going into battle.
We suppose they would rather have our boys
as they are always pleased to call them go over the top
dispiritedly and surrender rather than be ready to deal
death with determination and vengeance.
There is no way to wage war successfully except
TO be fully prepared to wage it and then to wage it with
the bullet and the sword. You can't bayonet a man
without drawing blood and often you drive it into your
enemy with such strength that you can't pull it out to
skewer another unless you shoot it out. They would
never open their heads when a sappy and caIow sport
on a midnight joy ride, drunk at the wheel of a car
overturns it with death to the occupants. but it makes
them sick you know to have that same youth metanl-
orphosed into a man by intensive cantonment training
going in to do his part in making a world where his
women folk can live without being ravaged and mutt
lated-a world where there are such things as truth.
honor and respect among nations.
The people who believe in halfhesrted prosecution
of this war on the part Of the United States are not
fiji to live within its boundaries. They belong in Ger
many or in the neither regions.

is necessary to make sacrifices and to
suffer in the interests of q great cause,
that sacrifice and suffering are more
precious than enjoyment. In short we
must become convinced that a war
fought for an ideal or fought with the
intention of maintaining ones position
in the world is not a barbaric act but
the highest expression OF true civiliza-
ton: that war is a political necessity.
and that it is fought in the interests OF
biological. social and moral progress.

N%AUMANN'S LAMENT.

In spite of many efforts, the idea OF a cen

missing"

done nothing. Discussing the terms of the proposed
treaty, he says that they should be as simple as possible.
avoiding all unnecessary conditions.
THE task is only to create a military and
economic unity on ground on which the Central
powers can negotiate Jointly. 1t would be suni~
cient to have a State decree issued by the En-
perors and approved by the Parliaments de
caring that the three Central States intend in
the future TO train and equip their armies on
these same lines, conclude treaties with other
states Jointly, and unite their finances on a
common credit system. Other questions can be
settled later. The first thing necessary is an
irrevocable settlement of the historical ALI
