every principle of honor is malicious
and degrading.
If such system were permitted to
conquer in this struggle, 1t would
wrest from the free people of the
world not alone their freedom and
their ideals Of democratic justice,
which, through generations of priva-
tion, perseverance and indomitabie
will, they have wrung from the past,
but 1t would crush all the achieve
ments Of peaceful industry, of educa-
tion, and especially Of spiritual aspira-
ton, which are the hard-earned fruits
Of these generations of world service.
Must Save Our Children.
We must save our children from the
debasing spirit of militarism, if Amer
lean men and women are ever again
to hope for the things they have cher
ished, and from which their ancestors
sought to escape when they defied the
tyranny of the domination of might
and gave to the world the democratic
ideals Of justice and equality In the
immortal Declaration of Independence
to which our flag and Our country are
dedicated.
1t is not enough that Germany shall
be defeated in battle or conquered by
hunger; she must be shown the truth,
that the world will no longer permit
any people to hold over-rated power
which threatens its peace or paralyzes
the processes of civilization.
: eve Are Awake Now"
Whatever may have been our error
in the past, however blind we may
have been, we are awake now.
Whatever mistakes we have made
in the past, however we may have
underestimated Germany's desire to
crush the democratic ideals of the
world, now that that purpose is known,
1T must be overcome IL womanhood ana
childhood are to be saved anywhere.
There can be reparation for these
deeds nowhere, either In this world
or In the world to come. The only
hope lies In such conquest over the
spirit of Germany that 1t may learn
the truth; that it may understand that
today, as in time past, the only foun-
dalton, security and stability for any
people, Germany included, is In right
eousness; that above the roar of bat
tie, the shrieking Of shells, the groans
of the dying and the cries Of little
children, the prophets Of old are call
ing in tones that the whole world and
Germany must heed, "What does it
profit man? What does the law re-
quire of them but to do justly, to love
mercy and to walk humbly with God?"
"Spirit Regenerated."
1t is not enough that the military
power of Germany be conquered, but
the German spirit must be regenerated.
Her mind must be open to learn the
truth about her false ideals of military
power, and we, too, must learn that
our fight is not alone to save our coun-
try, important as that is. We have
more than our own safety to serve
we must win peace, peace for ourselves
and peace of the whole. world-for
without world peace there can be Sc
cured peace in no part OF 1t.

WHY OUR PEOPLE SHOULD CON.
!. SERVE SUGAR ~ THE UNITED
STATES.

Before the war Great Britain receiv-
ed half her sugar from Germany and
/ Austria France obtained 30es from
these sources. Now the United States
must divide her portion with these two
countries.
: The sugar situation is an outcome Of
war conditions, and must be met as
such We may expect rationing Of
sugar to continue until the war is over.
1t is necessary for the soldiers TO be
supplied with a greater quantity OF
sugar than those who are well housed
and not exposed to out-of-door living.
Therefore you should suffer 10 hard

your sweets to supply the needs Of our
