'E.vERYWOMAN" IN THE WAR

This is the story of woman who
converted a food Stacker into an ar
dent missionary of food production
and conservation 1t is the story Of
woman who would not allow a
neighbor, by indifference or laziness.
or greed, to hamper the food pro-
gram of the Nation and thus further
imperil the life of her son who is
fighting in France. 1t is an example
that can be followed by "everywoman
everywhere"
The experience was told to Assist
ant Secretary of Agriculture Clarence
Ousley not long ago, when he was
touring the South to pre- sent the Gov
ernment's urgent message to the cot
ton country-a request, of vital i'm
portance, that the South feed itself
this year, and be not lured by high
priced cotton into such increases of
cotton acreage as will mean diminu-
ton of food-crop acreage. Mr., Gus
ley explained that the Government is
not asking the South to reduce its cot
ton acreage; is not attempting to sug-
gest the amount of acreage to be
planted-but is only urging, with the
earnestness inspired by conviction
that this means much in winning the
war, that the South insure its own
food and feed supply first, and then
plant such cotton acreage as it
chooses. Without food from us, he
said, our allies must fail. If they fail
all the vast burden of the war falls
upon us-and what that might mean
no man dares predict.
And So" added Mr.. Ousley, "the
farmer who knows that, knows his
failure to produce food jeopardizes
our cause, and yet for greed and self
ishness and in order to fatten his own
pocketbook, plants all cotton and ex-
poets the rest of the Nation to send
him food-that man is profiteer in
the blood of your sons!"
After that speech woman sought
Mr.. Ousley. In her voice there was a
quiet determination; in her face SUI
preme, sublime courage, subtle
something of the soul-the same spir-
it shown so gloriously by the women
of France-by the women of all the
un-Prussianized and never-to-be-
Pruzzianized world. If the Hun mad

PRUSSIAN MlLITARlSM MUST BE

No one fact is more clearly demon
strated since the beginning of his

begun by Germany after years of de-
liberate preparation. The frightful
cruelty with which it is waged is not
accidental, but is part of the German
policy of destroying as many of her
foes and devastating as much of her
foes territory as possible so that at
the close of the wa rthe Fatherland
shall be just so much in the lead in
the next struggle which she expects
to begin for the domination of the
