MAN POWER

We read much Of power these days; human
power better term, it emphasizes the fact
that the and children also constitute great
factor in this In the final victory every man,
woman, and child in America and should have a
part.
In comparing the power of Germany with that
of the United States it must be borne in mind that
much larger proportion of the labor of the
of the Nation is performed is exerted by the Ger
man than by the women of America. 1t is said
that peace times the constituted AZ per cent
of the agricultural and industrial labor of Germany.
They work in the fields in the factories in the Mines
at the hardest and most aborious tasks doing the
work only done by in this country. With great
proportion of the German men in the army, it is not
improbable that constitute by far the larger
half of German manual labor.
The Of the United States nobly, unset
fshly manfully, may say bearing their share of
the burdens of BY the grace Of God and the power
and of America the fate of the German
is not and will be theirs. But it will be with
their assistance cooperation and their assump-
ton of the burdens and duties of the day that the
United States is to its full power Kidding
world of that ntolerable German kutur which makes
brute soldiers of the and slaves of the women.

socialist plague Minnesota farmers had made

ers of other northwestern state the progress
real progress based upon the prin
cple Of cooperation The only effect of this socialist
propaganda which political rather than
organization, will be to set back and retard
the of farmer organization There is quite
difference between helping the to organize
it and the day is not far ahead when all
will that the socialist invasion retarding
