 In this time of crisis and judgment, inspire us to think, act and serve to- gether in the common cause of a victorious righteousness.

ALLIES, TOO. RAISING MONEY

Two of Americas allies in the war have recently had occasion to inau- gurate war bond campaigns. March 4 England started a drive and raised $500,00 ,000 in week.
 Trafalgar Square was the center of activity with tanks, airplanes, mater ials captured from the Hun and many signs bidding all to invest. King George sent message of encourage ment to the people, and Queen Mother Alexandra sent her subscription to one of the tanks by means of a car rier pigeon.
 Italy is also having great success iwth her current war loan. Finance Minister Nitti told the Italian Senate that subscriptions had already totaled 5000 100000 lire ($1, 100000, ,000), or fve-sixths of the whole amount asked. At the time the loan opened, Minister Nitti amde a direct appeal to the pub lie and the response demonstrates the nations resolution and power. No Italian loan up to this time has ex- ceeded 3,O0O,O00,000 lire.

RESOURCES OF AMERICA GREAT

When Germany's new war loan is floated the empires total indebtedness will be $31 000,000,000, which means that each one of her 68,000,00 in- habitants, men and women and chil- dren, will be in debt $456. Here in America, with a population of 110,- 100000, our total indebtedness, if only $6,000,000,000, or per capita indebtedness of only one-eighth that of the German citizen, a matter of S67 each. We can run our Liberty Bond Rotations up to S50,000,000, ,000 before each one of us owes as much as each German across the Rhine.
 In other words, we can run this war at our present rate of eXpendi- ture, for eight years before we are as bad off as the Germans are today, Don't be frightened q the money we are spending. We are lot cak- ing" ourselves. We aT spending very little of our natio wealth. Buy bonds. If this wa lasts for eight years, Germany will be so badly "brole" it can never oe put together again.
