The Prussia of the Balkans
Bulgaria Hopes to Weld the Mailed Fist ovs
Subject Matiens.

From The American Review of Reviews.
In July, 1915, the Bulgar General Angelof is
sued pamphlet, The Hour of Bulgaria" We
quote
Besides the signal services which Germany
renders to us by the destruction of France
and Russia, she shows us also the unique
way wherebyNW can realize the hegemony in
the Balkans The nation which aspires to
her neghbors. The German example shows
us that cannot attain to hegemony eN-
cept by violence. IL we do not obtain it We
cannot be true Prussians OF the Balkans.
What Bulgaria longs for Is thorough Prus-
sanitation of her institutions
p. Oswald, a German publicist writes:
The role of Bulgaria in this war has con-
sisted in joining Turkey to Germany As the
road from Hamburg to Bagdad goes through
Sofia, and as Bulgaria forms the link between
Orient and Occident, she can now profit by
her geographical position and fulfill her des-
tiny in the world.
The Nazodni Prava Of May 10, 1915, gives the
aims of Bulgaria in a true light:
It may be that the Bulgarian diplomats
will be soon summoned to give their opinion
at the peace conference after the war. They
must expound the theories at the foundation
of the Bulgarian clalms--clatms already suf-
fciently consolidated by force Of arms They
win discuss definite plans as TO the future OF
Siberia and as to our relation to our neigh
bors. On these questions, especially on the
question Of Serbia, our veritable enemy, our
diplomats must be instructed 10 be above all
severe and irexorable They must gut aside
all sentimentalism, every humanitarian con-
sideration and every softnees of heart. The
existence OF a Serb state under whatsoever
form that may be is equivalent to prolonga-
ton OF troubles In the Balkans. This state,
which since It's independence has not ceased
to be nest Of disorder and discussions, must
be exterrlnated from the face OF the earth

DO NOT SEPARATE THEM.

Forcibly separating pastor from his
flock is a cruel process.
Those members of the congregation Of
the New Salem church, who voted to retain
their pastor after he had been convicted Of
violating the espionage act, should not be
separated from him. They should be per
mitted to continue worshipping under his
guidance at the place to which the reverend
gentleman is going.

Almost daily, The Forum is in receipt Of war
verse from It's readers. It is impossible TO find
space for ali OF It, but the following have been
taken from the contributions:
The Call TO outy.
We &C. e. where duty calls US; we go to fight the
we go to end worthy cause. SO nobly begun.
We bid farewell to friends, bound for foreign
shore,
Perchance to clasp their friendly hands or greet
their smiles no more.
If we fall what is our reward, when the banner Of
war is fured,
An unmarked grave in No Mans Land and the
gratitude of the world.
F p. s. Of the n. d. A. G. training detachment
J. Peters of Fargo submits the following:
The Huns on the Run.
The boys have got them on the run;
The treacherous, cruel and murderous Hun.
Old Hindenburg and Ludendorff,
VIII soon cry out, We've got enough.
CHORUS. b.. ..s.
Hurrah! Hurrah! They're on the run,
The terrible, cruel and murderous Hun.
But though they cry they'll not be heard;
Our boys know how to take their word.
And now they have them in their flight,
They'll make them go or make them fight.
Keep at It boys, the end is near;
Inefe S little lett 10 QOUDt OF rear.
The time has come for Kaiser Bill,
With quick dispatch 10 make his will.
Yesl Kaiser Bill, your time has come,
And you must pay for crimes you've done,
A eaIlows high on which you swing,
Will surely make the echoes ring.
Hark! Forward march-on to Berlin,
And on they sweep and enter in.
The tyrants thrown, the victory's won,
And all the world cries out, well done.
Miss Helen Eva Miller submits the following
plea for aid from Kaiser Bill to Lucfer:
My dear beloved Lucifer,
You know your kinsrnen we'll
I am your grea test worshiper, .,.A#
The well known Kaiser Bill
I in the deepest sorrow,
VIII you be friend in need;
I'd like to own a part Of He'll,
A title and deed. .'5
You see it's like this, Lucifer.
I've done atrocious works,
Now l have to, aid me-
But your kingdom and the Turks.
I've invented poison gases
Liquid fire and submarines,
Long firing guns and Zeppelins
And treacherous machines.
I have murdered little children; Fl
Butchered women in the trench,
l have broken arms of nurses
Cut out tongues of captured French
have, made 1t quite business
To sink all ships at sea,
Now 1t seems that every nation
Has quite line on me.
Old Uncle Sam has joined them
With his battle flag unfurled,
He has time to do his duty
For the freedom of the world
I detest that nation, Lucifer,
God sends his aid so cheap
To help him sink our warships -15s
To the bottom of the deep.
It's hard to tell you, Lucifer,
But I confess it's true,
Old Kaiser Bill of Berlin,
Has met his Waterloo.
l must sneak away from danger,
But I have no place to dwell
Unless you, dear old Lucifer,
Will deed me part OF He'll

MILK's VALUE.

Milk is a meal in itself.
AS it alone contains all the ele-
ments necessary to sustain life 1t is
very similar to a mixed diet.
it consist of? Albumin, for one
thing, and this is like the white of
an egg. Then there is fat which is
like butter, also salt which is like
our common table salt, and of course
water
Milk also contains cells, ferments,
gases, antitoxins and other import
ant substances.
Milk, therefore, is equal to a meal
consisting of meat and eggs, sugar
and cereals, oils and fats with salt
and water.
When the various nourishing ele-
ments which milk contains are con-
sidered. milk is found to be one of
the cheapest foods on the market, 1t
is also one of the most easily digest
ed.
For instance. one glass OF milk is
about equal to:
Two large eggs.
One large serving of lean meat.
Two moderate sized potatoes.
Five tablespoons of cooked GER
cal.
Three tablespoons Of boiled rice.
A quart of good, fresh milk is
about equal in nourishing value to
any one of the following:
Two pounds OF salt Goldfish.
Three fourths pound Of lean round
beef.
Two pounds Of chicken.
One-sixth pound of butter.
One-third pound of wheat flour.
One-third pound of cheese.
Two pounds Of potatoes.
Six pounds OF spinach.
Seven pounds of lettuce.
Four pounds of cabbage.
