and goods must be released for the
use of the government in waging war
therefore the demand for labor, serv-
ice, and goods must be lessened
among the people.
How to make John Smith not mere
ly undertand but feel to the marrow
of his bones tnat this business Of
thrift is up to him personally is the
task in hand. How shall he be con-
vinced Of the need Of reducing his
expenditures, even before his own
income shrinks and forces him to
economize? This is the problem.
One can say that it is a simple
question Of preparedness. The taxes
will pile up upon us all the more
heavily later on, and the prices of
everything we consume will run all
the higher if the American people do
not get ready now to bear the bur-
den Of the war to the uttermost limit
of their strength in it's final stages,
which are sure to be its most ex-
hausting stages for every belligerent
on either side.

Warning Notice

As local chairman of the War Saw
lings Campaign, it has become my
duty to draft citizens into this war
service work, and it has become inn
perative that such citizens as have
been drafted must respond, in order
to complete the work in due course
of time. l have during the week re-
quested number of citizens to re-
port at meetings, to carry on this
work, and regret to state that the
number responding have been dread
fully disappointing. A number
of regular good soldiers have re-
sponded promptly, and are at present
doing all in their power to bring the
necessary results to meet the quota
assessed to Morgan City, and other
districts, comprising the Sixth Ward.
But more men are required. 1t has
become my duty, in view of the fact,
that so many who have been request
ed to volunteer their services for this
work, have failed to respond, that it
will be necessary to publish a list of
these men who have refused to do
their duty towards the United States
Government, in securing necessary
data and pledges to reach the quota
assessed against Morgan City. l do
not propose to take snap judgment
Jagainst such citizens. consequently
am publishing this warning to all who
have been requested to report for
this work, and have failed to do so.
This list will be published in Wednes-
days Review, unless such men who
have been requested to report advise
the undersigned that they are ready
to assume this DUTY.
Yours truly,
JULIUS P. HEBERT,
Local Chairman.

BLOOD MUST WIN"
The Voice Of the Berlin War Of6es

The Voice Of the Berlin War Of6es.
BY Geo. E. Bowen Of The Vigilantes.
"Bood must win" And so it must
That is the challenge Of barbarism
to the world. An amazing ultlmatum
Unbelievably brutal
But 100000 dead men and twice
as many wounded have verified the
Kaiser's code with their lives
Most of them scorned the idea as
inhuman.
Again, they prayed it might be
false report.
At last. There is no other
answer. BLOOD must win"
Some Of it will be American blood,
mingled with the blood Of France and
England, of Belgium a'.d Russia, OF
Italy and Poland.
But most of the blood or victory
and finally all of it, will be German
blood-that which surged against hu-
manity and all the reason Of history.
The blood of the worlds great vic
tory over the code and claws Of the
Beast will be German blood-but the
victory will not be for the Prussian
Eagles or for the Hohenzollern arms.
The blood of Germany will be the
price it's ghastly ambition pays to the
outraged decency of the world.
Four years ago no sane person be-
lieved we ever again would go through
the red shambles of death to establish
world peace and world decency. The
progress Of ideas, the economy of life
itself, guaranteed peace. The en-
lightenment of the world proposed
equality-accepted the spirit and the
service Of democracy.
The scars of the last great SAN
culinary struggles of nations were q
sure promise of better understand
ing and gentler ways of reconcile
.ation and adjustment.
But once more the tranquility Of
! earth is torn asunder and peaceful
lands are drenched with human
blood. Insanely, ferociously, hatefully,
the power of the Beast has willed
it so-the only answer is one his fury
will respect and comprehend.
"Blood must win"
Ludendorff was right. Victory
must emerge from deluge of blood.
The tainted blood of Germany's royal
murder-bund. The shedding of which
will be its first and only worthy serv-
ice to humanity and the world.
