ITZE MUST buy bonds to the last cent of our
vHa5;Gty, because country is fighting for
its very life. Make no mistake citizens of
America, the crisis is just that-ye are fighting
for our very life.
We must fight this war through We must
h8ht It through to peace the basis of which
will be written by and allies.
Germany must not write a single clause in
the Treaty. She must be whipped until she will
sign a treaty every word of which will be crawn
by the Allies. Germany must not be allowed to
dot an or cross a t.
Why?
Because Germany has become nothing but
robber empire, murderer empire, an empire
every purpose Of which is the enslave1nent of
the rest Of the world Such purposes admit Of
no compromise: We must conquer or die. If we
do not conquer shall. nevertheless die -
and die slaves.
Germany began with the intention Of rob-
bng France Of her iron, her coal, her best land
and her great factories; Of making Belgium with
her rich mines. great cities and immense fac
tories part Of Germany of gaining the Bel
gan coast from which she might conquer Eng
land, and Of combining under her flag the hordes
Of Mohanmedan Turks, and all the Balkan
States. SO that she might train soldiers in count
less millions. build navies to sweep the oceans
and conquer the world.

If we do not fight the war through to COM

will succeed. She will surely succeed!
Russia with her nearly 2OO,OOOOOC people

now give up the Balkan States. give up Belgium,
force Austria to yield up the italian territories

up these. and Alsace-Lorratne and If al

have won victory greater than any Of which
she ever dreamed at the beginning of the war.

M E. CHURCH NOTES

We have a treat in store for us
next Sunday morning and evening.
The Rev. w. E. Scott, of Culver, the
one time beloved pastor of this
church will preach for US. There is
another time when you may go to
church in reality as in other days. The
cluster of precious memories may be
a real joy of the present upon next
Sunday.
These are warm days but we hope
no Christian will spit in the face of
God by saying it is too hot to come to
church
The Sunday School is moving on in
spite of the fact that many at this
time are out of town.
Again we call your attention to the
boys in camp, on the sea and in the
trenches. The President expects that
you pray, the boys expect that you
pray. IF you expect to win this war
ypu must pray, and the time is COM
in !. before we win this war that you
will pray. It may be unpopular for
you to pray now but wait; popular or
unpopular when a few more new
graves lie across the sea you will
pray. o shame! that we wait so long
as that Pray now.
Florence Italy.-Fifty per cent of
the ministers of the Methodist Epis-
copal church in Italy are in active ser
vice in the Italian army. The annual
session of the church which has just
been held here, under the presidency
of Bishop William Anderson, of Gin
cinnati showed its confidence in the
final victory of the allies by deciding
to create new Italian district, COM
prising Trent, Rovereto, Udine and
Goriza, all at present occupied by the
enemy, and by voting that it's session
ein 1919 should meet in Triest.
/ The latter vote was loudly cheered by
the meeting.
DR.. Bertrand M. Tipple, chief sup
erintendent of the Methodist church
in Italy is too leave for the United
States soon.
This is a report recently received
here from the annual conference held
at Florence, Italy.

by This has been the hardest week
we have put in so far. But I don't
think it will be that way after another
week or so. We did not get chance
to go out last Sunday because we had
to stay here and play colors in the
evening. What they call playing col
ors is playing "Star Spangled Banner"
at sunset when the flag is lowered.
When this piece is being played every
sailor within hearing distance of the
band has to stand at attention and at
salute until the band is through.
Was at Chicago yesterday in the
afternoon but our stay was pretty
short because we had to get back by
1900 o'clock. Was invited out to the
Chicago Beach Hotel and took dinner
out there That certainly is some
Lakes front. We went out on the
beach and would have taken a swim
in the Lake but time didn't permit.
There was a nice breeze from the
northeast and this brought in the
breakers. The waves would whip up
five or six feet and there would be
continual roar. just wondered what
the briney deep must be Judging from
the way Lake Michigan cuts up.
Was also out to see Lowell HenkeI
and had nice visit with him. He is
still the same, I could see but very
little change in him. He has never
been out to the station here so has

RED CROSS NOTES


Henry P. Davidson, chairman of the
War Council of the A. r. c., recently
returned from Europe after spending
two and one-haf months in the war
zone and has published report of
his inspection of Red Cross work
from which the following is extract
ed:
Up to the time 1 left, our American
Red Cross had either distributed or
held available for immediate distri-
button, more than 22,O0O,00O surgical
dressings and bandag4s. And right
Europe 1 was impressed with the
here 1 want to say that throughout
value and effectiveness of the volun-
tary work the women of America are
doing in their American Red Cross
workrooms. Our women are supply
ing bandages and surgical dressings
in volumes, and of quality that is
wonderful. I only wish the women
could see the need for these bandages
as did. They would then have some
definite realization of the magnif-
cent work they are doing We are
operating a hospital supply system
for 4,361 hospitals in 1,5O9 cities in
France. Their need range from safety
pins to complete photographic installa-
tions and have actually included oxen
to plough fields and cows to give milk
for the use of tuberculosis hospitals.
Since July 1st, 1917, we have supplied
hospitals in France with 1876, 900
separate articles. In Italy we are
sending supplies to 465 hospitals We
are operating 80 ambulances along
the Italian front, driven by 129
American boys. We are serving both
French and American soldiers right
up behind the lines with rolling can
teens and also providing rest stations
and canteens, at railroad stations
Soldiers tell us that food and hot
| drinks that we bring them are enor-
nous comforts, but above all else is
the satisfaction that they have in feel
ing that someone is there who is not
compelled to be there to give them a
| helping hand. In fourteen rolling can
tens at the French front 3,240,O hot
drinks have been served to French
soldiers At IL canteens on the
French lines of communications we
have supplied 3,913,oOO meals. In IA
canteens in the Paris district in
France, we have supplied 4,251,2 ,277
soldiers with food and drink. Our
activities among soldiers at the front
in Italy are on a corresponding scale.
We have established a factory to make
artificial limbs according to the best
American practice and have distribut-
ed more than 1000 artificial legs and
arms to mutilated French soldiers.
Five splint factories are operating
under our supervision making $4,000
splints and accessories month for

Supply Depots.

ceipts were 10000 head, 5000 more

steers sold at $3.50 to $3.50 in both
native and quarantine divisions The
break in the market last week, cooler
weather and good grass. caused own
ers to keep cattle at home this week
in Kansas, Oklahoma and Missouri, to
great extent, although pastures in
those states are full, and must begin
TO d1sgorge within the next week or
two. California sent 73 cars of cattle
Tor yesterdays market, and Sc
arrived from that state today. Idaho
and Arizona also sent several trains
for the market this week, these long
distance shipments being stimulated
by the effort to get in ahead of the
25 per cent raise in rates which be-
came effective on shipements loaded

ing for export is constantly increas-
/ ing.

a speech, said he thought a crown of
glory should be laid up for the man
who cannot make a speech and doesn't
try. He failed to say what should be
done to the man who is similarly gift
ed but doesn't know it. However, it
is likely that the supply of crowns
will equal the demand-if distribut-
ed according to the conditions set
forth.
The C. of c. of Salina gave the
judges a banquet where Judge Blum
don presided and Judge T. L. Bond
and Judge Dallas Grover responded to
toasts. Other responses were given
by Rev. Krantz of the Lutheran
church, and by county attorney W. B.
Crowther.
ALI roads lead to Rome, if you are
a good Roman; all texts lead to i'm
mersion, if you are a good Baptist;
and all good talks lead up to the war
topics, if you are a good American.
The latter statement was also proven
by the speakers at the banquet. One
speaker said we should not say "when
the war is over, but rather say
'when the war is won" What does
the reader think of that? For me, the
terms are synonymous. For all good
Americans the war will not be over
until it is won

during the week. We have been play
ing every day for the seamen to drill
Western Kansas world. [volume] (WaKeeney, Kan.) 1885-current, 1918-06-27

No, only about one third of the
Judges were there-as usual. There
should have been a larger attendance
but there is always plenty of ex-
cuses: It is always much easier to
stay at home, as well as cheaper, and
there are times when the work of the
office demands immediate, personal
attention. Just now the war affects
everything. There is the Red Ccross,
and liberty bonds, the fsY'' work, war
saving stamps-all calling for money
and more money-to say nothing of
the high cost of living and an increase
of fifty per cent in railroad fares. But
after all, the most potent condition
leeping the attendance down is the
fact that at least one of the Probate
Judges of the state are paid too small
tc afford a living for the average
family of five persons.
No, the question of official salaries
was not one of the topics brought up
for discussion. The work of the Office
in one department or another-was
the only thing considered in conven-
tion-and the most experienced judge
could learn something from the exper-
ience of the others, is so inclined.
Yes, there is a lot of old straw
threshed over at these conventions,
and to make it more monotonous it is
largely threshed over by the same
machines. More grain might be CLEAN
ed from the chaff if new separators be
drafted occasionally. But we are told
that the same thing applies to all
such conventions.
