Germans have been engaged in SIM
liar work all over the world.
Ii we accept the doctrine that the
devil sends out into every corner of
the earth his unseen workers of evil,
that he puts into every human heart
suggestions of sin, and dominates
all the earth where the power of
God is not superior, and where men
who do not look wholly unto God
for safety from the wiles of the evil
one, then we have an exact illustra-
ton of the work of the German
propaganda OF hypnotism and men
tai suggestion or control. The men
ace is a real one OF tremendous I'M

tion of peace with an uncrushed,
unrepentant Germany, and know
that it comes from pro-German

ABSENT SOLDIERS.

1t has been necessary again to
send out a general warning against
the abSenting OF soldiers from their
training camps. Few men actually
leave the camps without permission,
but large numbers of them over
stay their leave of absence-an Of
fense which, accordingt to strict
army rules, is no less serious.
1t is hardly correct to class such
cases as "desertion'. The boys do
not intend to desert; they are hav-
ing a good time at home, and are
simply tempted to continue it with
too little regard for the military
obligation. If the evil continues to
grow, however, it may become
necessary for the army authorities
10 adopt stern measures.
The men themselves should recog
nize the vital importance OF their
submitting to the army discipline
and getting the maximum OF train
ing in the minimum of time. Wilful
absences from duty is especially
serious when the nation is engaged
in a great war whose successful
issue depends on these men, and
when the units to which they belong
are liable to the ordered abroad at
any time
Almost as much responsibility |
rests with the relatives and friends |
of the men concerned. Any per-
son who knowingly encourages
soldier to overstay his leave is guilty
of little less than treason. In some
of the belligerent countries heavy
punishment would be visited on
both classes OF offenders. 1t should
never become necessary to adopt
such a policy here

WANTED-AN EXPLANATION

FIRST the experts explains TO the
German people that we could not
send an army over to fight them,
because the U-boats would sink
our troop ships. \ little later they
explained the arrival OF American
troops as due to clever strategy on
the part OF the German high COM
mand: We were to be allowed to
land an army in France in order that
the U-boatS might starve them to
death by destroying their supply
ships.
With nearly 100000 American
fighting men in France. il is surely
about time the starvation process
started. From all accounts. how
ever, our boys in the war zonct are
about as well fed now as they ever
were at home. The Sinkings of our
merchantmen, too, are at a low
ebb.
What will be the next explana-
tion? The German government and
press are doubtless open to sug-
gestion. The kaiser might even
award an iron cross for the best ex-
cuse or promise submitted. as a
dope pill to keep his people quiet
i little longer.

THE WOUNDED.

From a statement issued by Gen
eral March. American chief of staff,
it is possible to form a pretty good
idea OF what the casualty lists mean
to the men themselves.
If a soldier is reported killed in
action, of course that is definite
and conclusive. For the great ma
iority who are merely given as
"wounded", without the degre Of
injury being designated, the natural
presumption is that the matter is
not at all serious.
Only Az per cent of all the men
sent to the hospital as result OF
wounds received in action die from
those wounds, says General March.
That is, about 2l wounded men out
of p recoved. More surprising
still. 81 per cent of them. or more
than four out of every five. recover
so quickly and completely that they
are back at the front in less than
two months. \ larger proportion
return 10 duty eventually. OnIy one
out of seven wounded is disabled to
an extent that necessitates his hon
orable discharge from the service.
Don't worry, then, when you see
a loved ones name in the wounded
list. The chances are more than 20
to one that he will come ont of the
hospital as fit as ever for civil life,
and seven to one that he will en-
erge as fit as ever Tor military life
which, as we know, means 4 high
degree of physical excellence. Even
dangerously wounded" cases need
bring no despair. With them
modern surgery works miracles, and
most of them recover.

Mental suggestion, hyponotiSm
and psychology are all being used
by Germany with persistency and
power incomprehensible to people
who have not understood the cam
paign by which for years Germany
has been poisoning the wells OF
thought all over the world.
For some years Germany, ina way
that is nothing less than Satanic in
its wide sweep throughout the
world and its tremendous power for
evil, has been utilizing mental sug-
gestion and hypnotism upon people
who do not themselves realize that
they are becoming possessed of the
devil.
Many man stands in the pulpit
and breaches peace without punish
ment, many an editor shapes an ed
itorial or a headline, many man in
public and private life makes state
ments calculated TO weaken the NOR
ale of America and of our Allies
without himself realizing that he is
under the domination of the work of
mental suggestion and the hypnotic
power which Germany is exerting.
Impressions come TO many peo-
pie lessening their hostility to Ger
many, or lessening their determina-
ton that there shall be no peace
with an unbeaten Germany, who
have not the slightest idea that these
thoughts have been put into their
minds by the devil-work of German
mental suggestions or hypnotic ac-
tivities.
The tremendous power OF this in
tlucnce is not grasped at all; men
scott at the power OF mental sug-
gestion or hypnotiSm without real
izing that there is a fearfully dam
gerous power i'll the possession OF
some people to control the thoughts
and acts OF others. Germany has
developed this power to the fullest
extent. Ii is power from the devil
For years Germany has been util-
izing it in order to plant throughout
the world its poisoned thoughts and
to control men and women who have
no conception of the fact that they
are under the domination OF such an
evil influence, and, therefore, yield
willing obedience 10 il.
We are facing a situation where

control, or hypnotic power, over
other people, in order to secure

Men who think that they are talk

lives are. in many cases, without

by this German hypnotic work, ex-
