Washington, D. c.. April s.
Undoubtedly some mistakes have
been made in our preparations dur
ing the first year of the war. But
taking a broad view. considering
the mistakes in their relation to
the achievements Of the first j
months, the errors are insignifi-
cant and the achievements very
great.
"In my judgment, the United
States has done more in the first
year of the war than any nation
has ever before achieved in so
short a space of time, in the his
tory of the world. Congress must.
in a measure, be credited for our
showing. for without the coopera-
tion and support Of the legislative
branch the president and his ad-
visers could have accomplished
very little"

Just like a regular fan.
She waves II when the bleachers roar
And marks II same's a man;
She munches peanuts through the

She stretches like the rest.
And cheers the sound Of Mattys name
With proud an dswelling chest.
Sometimes. she's so excited that
She tallys In a Slam
And jumps when Larry takes a bat
And starts the ball to lam;
She dances when her heroes win
And trembles when they fall
And often sharply through the din
You'll hear her cry: play Bali"
She writes golf terms across the card
And claps the homing hikes.
She Kisses at the umpire hard
When he counts out on strikes.
She questionmarks each rival run,
But underlines her side;
In ciphers that your senses stun
She indicates slide.

Or mystic Chinese lore.

Germany. the German people. the
German army. the German common
soldiers are all professional fighters"
Every man has been disciplined
from childhood and trained as q
fighter from his young manhood.
Every one has been taught that the
worst crime is disobedience.
The trained professional German
fighter knows that he may be killed,
II he goes ahead and obeys orders.
He knows that IL he disobeys he
will be killed to an absolute certainty.
This country and the allies are
amateurs, men that have thought for
themselves. never learned to take
orders. They have lived as men
should live In civilization, as free men
thinking for themselves, but when war
begins and the occupation Of the
world Is murder. these amateurs OF
democracy questioning. deciding, are
like the unframed men against the
