LiMPERLN

There are some people-to the credit
Of America and Americans, there are
not many Of them-who are beginning
to say: well. the Allies have the
Germans on the run, and we won't
need to get into the army or raise so
much money for Liberty Loans"
These are the same whimperine
souls who were ready to admit that
he Allies were whipped last April.
Nay and June, when the Germans were
mashing away trying to get to Paris.
They are willing to do anything that
will ease some of the strain that war
is putting on them and the rest of the
country. They are willing to admit
defeat If II will make things a little
easier for them for a short time.
They are willing to let the Germans
escape punishment if It will keep them
from having to dig up for another Lib.
erty Bond. They are whimperers and
cutters, seekers OF the softest and
easiest way. They would let the Ger
mans propose an armistice, propose
most any kind Of a peace that the
Huns wanted.
They have forgotten, or do not care
anything about the crimes Of the kai-
serites. They r a sort Of human
