The Speech Was One to Touch the Hearts of All True Americans
 in Giving Until it Hurts
The Brutality of the Germans Was Referred to as the Only Nation Which Fired on the Red Cross Workers During This War--America in the War for Unselfish Purpose.

''But behind this grim purpose, my friends, lies tho opportunity to demon- lstrate, not only force which will be demonstrated to the utmost, but the opportunity to demonstrate character. and it is that opportunity that we have most conspicuously in the work of the Red Cross.
 Not that our men in arms do not represent our character for they do and it is a character which those who i see and realize appreciate and admire;
 but their duty is the duty of the ! force. The duty of the Red Cross is
 tho duty of mercy and succor and | friendship.
 Have yOl formed a picture in your imagination of what this war is doing
 for us and for the world? In my own
 mind l am convinced that not hun | dred years of peace could have knit
 tod this nation together as this single year of war has knitted it together;
 and better even than that, if possible,
 it Is knitting the world together
 Look at the picture. In the center of the scene, four nations engaged
 against the world and at every point
 of vantage, showing that they arc seeking selfish aggrandizement; and against them 23 governments repre- lsenting the greater part of the popula- ton of the world, drawn together into new sense of community of interest, new sense of community of purpose; a new sense of life.
 "The secretary of war told me an interesting incident the other day. He said when he was in 5taly a member of the Italian government was ex- plaining to him the many reasons why Italy felt near 10 the United States.
 If you want to try an interesting ex- pertinent 80 up to any of those troop trains and ask in English how many of them have been in America, and sec what happens,
 He tried the experiment. He went up to the troop train and he said: How many of you boys have been in America and he said 1t seemed to him as if half of them sprang up, Me from San Francisco and from all over the country. These were men who had lived amongst us, who had worked shoulder to shoulder with us and now friends of America, were fighting for their native Italy.
 ''Friendship is the only cement that will ever hold the world together.

AMERICANS HOLD THE
 THIRD GRE ATEST MILEAGE
Fair Weather Is Reported From Bat tie Front, but Apparently Is Not to the German Liking as 1t Gives the Aerial Observers Too Great an Opportunity.

New York, May 1S.-Nearly three weeks have passed sinco the German offensive commenced on March 2t died at It's final active point in futile assaults on the Flanders front. Every indication, however, points to the probability that the coming week will witness it's renewal. The entente staffs. so far as their opinion can be learned, appear convinced that the enemy has about completed his re- organization and readjustment and ls only awaiting favorable weather. Fair weather is reported from the battle front but apparently this is not to the Germans liking IL is re- called that he was materially aided in his drive from St. Quentin in March 1 by the foggy, misty conditions during which masses could be moved to the point selected for the heaviest stroke without coming under aerial obserya- tion. It may be the enemy purpose to await similar conditions before his forward push.
 On the allied side confidence is ex- pressed in the outcome, particularly with the Germans crippled ill reserve power through their losses in the earlier attack, while the allies have received notable endorsements from ! the United States. The total mile Tage of front held by American troops indeed Is revealed to be the third greatest, the French standing first, the British second and the Americans exceeding the Belgian total
 While the rival forces arc thus poised for the clash in the west, i'm pOrtant developments appear to be impending in the far east. German aggression in Russia has reached q point where the entente press is clam bring for counter measures and some action Is apparently about to be taken, at least so far as the safety of the peace of the far east, and probably of Siberian integrity are concerned.
 In Great Britain the Irish question looms up again.
 The persons arrested in Ireland in clude the Seinn Finn organizations president, most of it's other leaders and all of the Seinn Finn members of parliament. The governments des- cent on the Seinn Finn headquarters and leading personnel was sudden and bold and the rounding up process was not accompanied by disorders.
 The bringing of the conscrlption question to head seems likely 10 re- suit from the governments action and with 1t may come the solution of the problem as to how far Ireland may be counted on to swell the British man power for the fight against Germany either voluntarily or otherwise.
 On the water the only incident of note reported is the sinking of British destroyer by torpedo from German submarine, two of the crew .of the British vessel being killed.

 With the crops made" and the harvest season getting fairly under way the unquestionabe fact that Georgia the threshold of the most in its history stands out radiant and inspir ing as an autumn sunrise The outlook is such that it for the demonstrabe truth, it would seem like Arabian Nights fancy
 In the matter of cotton alone-never before has the great southern staple yielded even approximately such lavish it must inevitably yield this fall
 conservative estimate places the 1918 cotton yield Georgia less than 2250000 bales. Some ordinarily reliable official estimates place it at above those figures but considering the uncertainties and the possibility of further unforeseen damage to the crop still in the field the states yield may be placed at two and quarter million bales with the certainty that it will not be below that.
 A bale of cotton weighs 800 pounds: Georgia this year will produce less than 25 100000 pounds of cotton, which at 30 cents pound means $50 bae-of s337. 7.5o0O00 for Georgas part of the crop, without the seed.
 But that is not al--not by a long way.
 The cotton seed from the lint in the average bale of cotton will bring s75 more, making every bale of actually worth the market less than $225

Better Than Flowers

There are better things than flowers at funeral.

THE DAY OF DAYS

When God in His appointed plan Domlnlon gave OCT all to man lie made the price of this estate That man must watch and work and
 wait.
 Full swift the cunning minds of greed discovered in the hour of need, HOW pest the hours of toll to Shirk, And make another do his work By dangling some glittering prize, Before the willing workers eyes. They took the best of all he made. And thus began the Boards of Trade. As labor's strength and skill increased The trades Hooked unto the feast. Their greed and avarice knew no bar, And finally broke forth in war And thus began the tyrant kings, The privileged and titled things, Who start the fires of hate to burn And eat the bread they do not earn. Full strong the toiler bore the load, All patiently toward the road. That leads unto that Better Day, When AutocratS have passed away. The workers now across the world, With labor's flag of hope unfurled, Are fighting this last war of all That waste and wiclledness may fall And when this horrid war is ended The blood and treasure thus expended If it but break the chains of greed, Will make the workers free indeed. Then smite the Hun and break his will To rob and outrage. burn and kill Then as the chains of greed you sever Make war impossible forever.
