auO yOu ICpi ooSh Ao Siios o1A soldiers have been very cruel to the Belgian rabble and you speak also of the destruction of Rheims and of the burning of villages and towns. We'll, that is war. As in every other undertaking, we are past masters in the mak ing of war.
 You have a great deal to learn before you come up to our standard, and 1 can assure you that what has been done so far is a mere bagatelle compared with what will follow.
 As matter of fact, there is but one race worthy of ruling the world, and which has already attained the highest de- gree of civilization. That race is ours, the Prussians; for though we Germans in general are the lords of the world, the Prussian is undoubtedly the lord par ex- cellence among the Germans.
 All other nations, and among them. unfortunately, the Swiss, are degenerate and of inferior worth. That is why I have always been 50 proud of being a true Prussian.
 Yesterday, again, our pastor explained to us convincingly that our first parents, Adam and Eve, were also Prussian. That is quite easy to understand, be- cause the Bible tells .us that the German God created Jus all after his own image. If, then, all men are descended from Adam and his wife, it follows that only Prussians. or at least Germans, ought to exist in the world, and that all who push on and prosper ought to belong to US. You must admit that there Is logic, and that is why our motto is, God with us! Germany above every thing"
 "You know now why We wished this war. Is it not shame ful that other nations, who have no right to existence on the earth, wish to diminish our her itage? We are the divine fruit and the others are only weeds. That is why our great emperor has decided to put an end to all these irj lstices and to extirpate the weeds. Do you understand hat now? rlmain your school friend,

WARNS WARFARE IS ON.
MRS. JOHN M. PITTMAN.l ]
By Margaret Wintringer,

SllLOllSIIi uUOtflSU, UuI IIIS IIouot of Horrors-the legalized saloon is to be overthrown. To save Democracy, two kaisers must go. The Drink Kaiser and the Ger man Kaiser are both to be un- crowned.ss
 Two wars are on. We may not all cross the see and enter the trenches to fight fer democ- racv, but there should be no ex- emption from service in the great battle which we civilians must wage in behalf of our soldier sons Over There. !"
 They have been assigned to their field of action, we have ours. And our cause, as well as theirs, demands conscription of life and wealth. If we are un- willing to make the sacrifice, then we are unworthy the splendid young manhood of the nation.
 We too must mobilize, and mo- bilize.speedily. We must mass our forces in every hamlet, viii lage, town and city. We too must dig trenches around every state Capitol and turn our guns upon every state legislature But our objective is still Wash ington, our demand is still for Prohibition during the period ot war and demobilization. It Is the blow that mill smash the en- emy's plans and win the war at home and abroad.
 When We have won that, the enemy will know that all our fine phrases concerning sacrifice, justice and protection of the weak are not cant, but the speech of an earnest people, and our al- lies will realize that their purpose must be as great.
 The vote of the House and Sen. ate is not only a great act of pre- paredness on our own soil, it has already loosened the strangle hold of the vested interests upon Great Britain; 1t has given a death thrust to the Continental light wine and beer fallacy, and points the way to the world for relief from the greatest foe Of all Butawe must not halt. If we halt. we perish and liberty dies with us.
 In these war darkened days, sl nave felt that the angels must hide their faces. and weep over d world that has wandered so fal from the Prince of Peace. haC thought to hear no Christmas carol.
 But the 17th and 18th of De cember has changed this. As l sat in House and Senate gallery those days, in the hush that fol- lowed the vote, 1 heard the an. gels sing and mingled with the angelic host were the voices ot the redeemed-the joyous tones ot Nea. Dow, the glad notes ol Francis E. Willard, and all that went before and followed after Glory to God in the Highest and on Earth peace Goodwill to man.
 Peace will come, the dawn of prohibition will usher in the glo- ries of never ending Day of Peace. But God cannot speed that day unless we work with Him.

How Binder Twine Is Made From
Palmetto Trees.


At last the palmetto tree is coming
into it's own. 1t has been posing for
two-thirds of a century In Southern
poetry and Southern oratory, and now
Florida and South Georgia and other
Southern states have turned upon 1t
and said: "NoW you be useful as
we'll as ornamental. You shall take
the place of Mexican sisal for the
manufacture of cotton bagging and
binding twine and, instead OF being
used for broom-making to sweep lgnOn
BILE floors, you shall become useful to
the nation"
A newly invented machine spins the
fibre out of the palmetto leaves. They
are stripped green from the trees, fed
into one end Of the machine and
emerge balls Of binder twine from the
other end.
In four months the stripped tree will
have another coat Of leaves which will
be cut Of at their stems and fed to
the machine. ana 50 on three timea
