IS THE
 EVIL OF GERMANY
 MORALITY IS GONE

LONDON, Jan. IS. - "The funda- mental eWl o1 Germany today IS Idol- atIy," said Lord Robert Cecil in a statement for the Associated Press today. "They have set up for them selves a grayen image, just as truly as did the worshippers of Baal against whom the prophets of the Bible preached.
 "Gemany's idol is the state. They place the state above religion, above morality, above all laws of God or Man. They believe that any act is justified which advances the interests of the German State, however base that act may be, however, immoral, however inconsiderate of the lawful rights of others.
 lotto Kahn, himself German by origin, has defined this State-idolatry as the demoniacal obsession of pow er-worship and world-dominion'
 This idolatry is at the bottom of our whole fight against Germany. ItI is the secret of the whole revolting list of outrageS and atrocities which Germany has committed against the civilized world. The violation of Bel gium, the Armenian atrocities, the mspeakable horrors of submarine walfare,-all these are the outcome of a creed which holds that no laws of morality are binding when the de- fcnse of the state-idol is at stake.
 "The results of this violating of the foundations of morality by Germany are bound to be colossal and far reaching. They mean the degeneracyI of the whole German structure, and the effects are already seen in the wave of crime and immortality which is sweeping over Germany. So long as the governing classes are infected with this doctrine there is no limit to the wickedness and cruelty which will be put into execution. It means the undermining ultimately of the whole fabric of their civilization. This is what President Wilson has foreseen. This is a reason for the determination of President Wilson and the leaders of the Allies on both sides of the wa ter Co carry this war through, what ever the cost, in order that the world may be a fit world to live in.
 "Thc Lansdowpe letter has been thought by some to indicate some weakening of determination on the part of this country, some change of attitude. believe any such impress sion is a profound delusion, know it is delusion as far as the actual government of England is concerned, . and l believe that the British people !. as a whole, including Lord LansdOwne himself, are more determined than ever to bring the war to a victorious conclusion.
 q see that it is being alleged with certain degrees of plausibility that there are many points in which Lord Lansdowne is in agreement with President Wilson's message. That may be so. But in the case of the Presidents message there breathes through every line not only determin- . ation to win-for in that there is no difference between the two men-but also a certainty of victory Presi-I dent Wilson's message has an inspir- ation of leadership which Lansdowne's letter lacks"

'BOYHOOD DAYS AGAIN.


Since I have been in the army and be-
gun to note things about me, it is re-
markabIe to note the similarity between
camp life and every day life at home,
before entering the army, especially,
when / was n boy under the direct con-
troll OF my good old mother and father
For instance, | see little difference be
tween father and a company command
er I can remember distinctly, as though
it was yesterday, those happy days on
the farm where l spent my boyhood
days. Instead of reVeile there was the
morning chores to do Instead of bugle
we had the large bell, which | used to
hate to hear just as much as | do the
bugle in the morning. Mother was the
first sergeant In those days, and l see

out "fall out of that hay, you lazy
brats" After a hurried shuttle into
oyeialls and shirts, we reported to the
harn-yard to father, who made a nasty
roll call Of my several brothers, and woe
unto the chap, who was A. w. O. l.,
down at the lot-for father would inn
medHNtely go in pursuit of him, with a
strap, While we policed up the mule stalls,
skinned the mules, and did little Is. z.
duty around the COW and chickens.
About six o'clock we all had to hit the

rifles. ono, mean the plowS, and hoeS)
and ont to the drill field we marched in
charge of our oldest brother, who was
just as much a devil about getting out Of
work as some of our commissioned
officers.
At noon. believe me, even the mules
and horses knew when the recall, or din

unloose the haines and slip on his back,
we would be double timing to the barn

GERMANS OBJECT TO
USE OF TRENCH GUNS

Germany has curly informed the
United States that any American taken
prisoner who has a shotgun or shot
gun ammunition on his person will
forfeit his life,
This is just the same as informing
the United States government that
they do not like the trench guns-es-
pecially in the hands of Americans.
These Americans learned to use shot
guns at the gun club and were profici-
ent in scattering the shot before join,
ing the ColOrs.
The trench gun does an irreparable
amount of damage to the German
cause. We might insert at this point
that the German cause is not a wholly
popular one in the United States.
German kultur gloated over the in
vention of poison gas. the cutting off
of hands and arms of children, etc, but
when the Americans bring into the
war nice little subduer in the trench
shotgun the Germans cry "barbarians"
at us. This brings to mind that old
and true remark, there is no account
ing for tastes, etc"
Kaiser Bill, Won Hindy ct al, didn't
figure that the United States would cut
much of n figure In this war Tuey
were assured of this by Won Tirpitz.
But when the Americans opened gaps
in the German lines at Seicheprey, in
April, with shotguns and have been
doing it ever since, the German &c leral
staff now pays us due attention.
We--speaking by and large-are de-
livering the goods as per schedule.
Uncle Sam is the best messenger in the
world.

Inquirer of Sept 2S, voices our senti-

AMERICAN BASEBALL
MAKES HIT IN ENGLAND

London.-American baseball in Great
Britain is a paying proposition
When the Anglo American Baseball
League closed here net profit of near
" $4,000 was turned over to British
war charities
SO confident are promoters of base
balls future in Great Britain that they
have begun plans for an English
Scotch league similar to the Matt lal
and American leagues in the United
States
II. f. Booker who once ran a roller
skating rink in San Francisco has en-
gineered baseball operations in this
country, and after a review of this sea-
sons history, he is confident that after
the war baseball will be paying en-
terprise here.
Booker is general manager of the
league, but what he doesn't know
about baseball, Arlie Latham, who use
to cavort along the paths in the States,
can tell him.
