The Twin City star., 1918-10-26

not make like answer you may as we'll
turn out the light on the statue of
liberty for you will find Berlin date
line on your tax receipt. How to meet
1t? The way to meet Doctor Wag
ners plan is by the united cooperation
or the brain power of this country.
State Of Mind Needed.
That job needs the state of mind of
the French women. When a French
woman drops plate and breaks it, or
she is Informed her husband has been
killed in the trenches, she has the
same answer-'c'est La Guerre'-it is
the war. To perform this job takes
just that state Of mind. I have seen
this state of mind displayed by the
war gardeners who have made up their
mind that General Pershing's call
"Keep the Food Coming" shall be an
swered. Theirs has been one of the
most remarkable tributes to the call
of patriotism the world has ever seen.
We are told there will be three mil
lion men under arms shortly. With
the daily average cost Of fifty cents to
feed soldier that means Uncle Sans
food bill will be one and half mil
lion dollars every day. Where is that
food coming from? 1t means the peo-
pie of this country will have to get
into a state of mind on the food ques-
ton. Some of them are as the nation
al war garden commission well knows
for example let me read one of the
thousands Of letters the commission
receives every day:
My Dear Sir: I want to help win the
war by having war garden. I saw your
notice about getting free book. My
father Joined the army in 1916 and was
killed in 1917 Will you help me by send
ing the book? ..+

New Glasgow, Nova Scotia.
Will you look this job in the face
as that boy, who has lost his father.
looks at it? Or must you wait until
the steel helmets Of the kaiser's jun
kers smash in the windows of your
homes and the arm of worse than mur-
der stands your men against wall
and herds you off to worse than death?
Remember "this Is every ones hope
who has freed himself from his own
local European pride and who places
the race feeling above the love for
home" Remember that prescription.
Are you ready to take Doctor Wag-
ner's medicine? Do the women of the
United States want to swallow any
potion prepared by anybody who at
tempts to rule the world in partner
ship with his royal highness the Sui
tan Of Turkey?
Talk Should Be Conserved.
We are fighting a rankerous growth
that threatens to consurne the world.
German poison Is now running wild in
this country. Talk Is not cheap. 1t
has gone up like everything else and
you should conserve 1t like coal or
-four
There are just two antidotes for
German poison. One is bullet with
the trade mark q. s. A. in the lower
left hand corner as IL whistles cyan
kee Doodle" in its scream across No
Mans land. The boys you have sent
to the front will administer that dose.
have no fear about that as long as you
feed them. The other antidote is the
serum of silence and it is just as i'm
portant in the winning of the war on
this side of the ocean. Without 1t the
work of the soldier will go for naught
for If the German brain cannot be
reached the dragon will rise again.
In the name of humanity do not let
the soldiers sacrifice be in vain. To
you the torch is thrown from Flanders
Fields. Be yours to hold 1t high and
WIN THE NEXT WAR NOW.
