He must be the one to pick up the
burden and stngger along under 1t.
He must not be allowed to shift 1t to
other shoulders, in part or In entirety.
Must Be Kept Under Surveillance.
The forces of many nations have
been harnessed in the effort TO ham
mer some reasonable degree of sense
into the Hunnish head. Next will
come the p%rOdigiOus effort to hold him
to his work and force him to walk the
straight and narrow path. 1t is to be
almost as hard n task as fighting him
into submission, If the way he is pre-
pairing for Il commercial campaign is
any criterion.
Unless he Is so hedged about by
rigid, inflexible guards that he can do
only the right thing. he will soon be
doing the wrong. one. 1t Is folly to
think that getting n whipping will
change the Hun nature. A cracked
crown will not ensure a regeneration
or any degree of reformation. He
will be no more spiritually redeemed
than lie will be physically restored by
! the war. The living Hun will need Il
process Of refining that will require
more than one generation. The dead
Hun, thank God. will help to hold him
where he belongs by the thinning out
Of evil blood when he died.
So let Vi plan now for what comes
later, that we may enjoy life with no
fear Of despOtic oppression In the fu-
ture years. We must weld Il steel

have about, that will keep the Prus-
sian on his good behavior for the next
two thousand years. In that length

ture, and SO bring him to where he is
a safe neighbOr for decent people.

Making Our Flag

Of The Vgitanses

lists have wrought In their desire to
dominate the world. Armenia and
Syria have high claim to Our sympa-
thy. Suffering the full horror Of the
conquered they have been isolated
from the allies who would have helped
them II they could. Turkey, the part
ner Of Germany and the cause of the
suffering and d~esOlatiOn of the Ar
menians, Ia now conquered and 1t Is
possible for America to rescue the de-
spairing and the hungry in those lands.
This Is n duty which we cannot re-
gretfully postpone. We are and must
continue to he the s%tOrehOuse of the
world. Our resources must be put to
the use Of those who suffer. France
and England. in spite Of their almost
~inconceivable wal burdens, are each
doing their part In the work of freeing
and feeding the oppressed. We should
not fail Of a ready and full cO-Opera-
ton.
Today the War 10 Won.
Thus far we have not felt In any de-
gree the pinch of the war-we have
hardly been incommOded. We have
saved sugar and meat and flour and
submitted to restrictions in other
ways, but we have not suffered in the
slightest the pain and the grief Of
other countries. The sacrifices we have
made seem very small and very poor
In comparison with what Belgium and
Poland and other equally innocent by
ISLANDERS have endured.
Today the var Is wOn-we can seize
our great opportunity. We have made
our flag respected by the valOr of our
sailors and soldiers, o let Vi make
it beloved by the wise use Of u al
most limitless wealth. How great, how
peaceful the United States seems as
we read the reports from the scOurged
and desOlated lands Of the East. From
our plenty we must instantly send In
order that hunger shall not end in
starvation and that a whole people
shall not vanish from the earth.
Germany has narrowed It's field; as
its allies retire they leave a multi
;tude Of homeless and furnishing vic
Tins behind-they have no care for the
ruined and the desolate-and America
must step in to aid till such time as
the oppressor a be forced to in
demnify and restore.
It is not necessary for me to re-
hearse the CHASTITY story Of Turko-I'rus-
sian barbaric cruelties-that has been
done full and most knowingly by others.

have a surplus that they may heal the

The Future of
the Hun
BY e. e. HARTMAN
Of The VgAonfes

There must be Il future for the Ger
man. He cannot stop and resolve into
Il mere memory. 1t is out of the ques-
ton for the civilized nations to ami.
hilate him For their own sakes they
cannOt be as savage as he planned to
be. However many were killed in this
war. there will still be many millions
left to propagate.
What manner Of future awaits those
millions? What will they do? What
will be their status In the world?
How will they prosper?
Already many thinking people are
considering the matter of German
trade. German industry. German debt
paying. The nation itself is making
active preparations for the after-the-
war campaign.
With this war ended Germany will
find herself handicapped with ii double
load: the debts she has incurred
through the financing of the war, and
the rehabilitation of DEVASTATED cOun-
tries. In order to pay either bill she
must be able to manufacture and sell.
She must have markets and supply
them.
In order to secure markets she must
first establish confidence in her wares
and in her business methods. She
must gain a certain. and very decided.
amount of friendly regard or the rival
statesmen, the rival manufacturer, will
hold too great an advantage. She can
only hope to be a %scavenger otherwise,
for the other nations will leave her
only that which they do not wish to
handle.
Al Nations on Guard.
How is she going to acquire the nee
essary standing. the confidence Of buy
ing nations. to give her these markets.
Once she would have sent her thou.
sands Of emigrants to cOlonize. with
rigid instructions to demand German
goods and thereby create IA condition
. that would force impOrtatiOns. That
day Ia past. for In all such cases Ger.
many's colonial idea carried with it the
control Of politics through colony bal
lots. 1t Is incOnceivable that any MI.
ton should v q again cater to the
German vote or allow it to be in con.
troll of even a fraction of national ac.
tivities.
With all nations on guard against
GermanizIng influences, that plan must
be abandoned. If Germany, in her
stupid Disregard of all rights and
%prejudices. should attempt to again
get control Of any part of the national
affairs of America or Canada or Bra.

When bedding or blankets are too
short. sew a strip of heavy cotton tc
the bottom; this tucks in nicely and is
not bulky.
The s of uncooked cereals is a
great saver of time and fuel, and many
prefer them. although they are much
more expensive. They combine well
with such fruits as bananas, and make
a most appetizing and nourishing dish.
All dry cereals should be crisped In
the wen before serving. Hot milk
poured owe shredded wheat biscuit
makes the cream go farther.
