Germany has suddenly found her
self involved in a maze of difficulties
on the eastern front and is in danger
of losing all the large benefits she
was calmly preparing to realize from
her peace with the Ukranine and
the boIshevik withdrawal of Russia
from the war.
Poland. that land which so fire.
ouently in the court of history has
proved a thorn in the side of military
conquerers, is threatening to constr
tute herself the rock on which the
German hope of peace and gainful ex-
pansion in the east may be shattered.
Embittered by the tearing off OF a
strip of their territory to be gwen
the Ukraine for breaking away from
the bolsheviki and signing a peace
with the central powers, the Poles are
in what appears to be virtually a
state of revolt.
Even the very weapon which Ger

the Polish legions, now an effective
military force, are on the side OF the
prevalent Polish sentiment of bitter

Austria-Hungary is particularly in

Germany's Method
OF Keeping the Peace

Many persons are still asking what
started this war. anyway? Some an
swer one thing and some another
The way does not matter. II it had
not started the way 1t did Germany
would have found another way to start
it.
1t reminds me of two of Aesop's fa-I
bles of the wolf.
A wolf was drinking from 8 stream,
when he noticed lamb a short dis
lance away, also drinking. The wolf
cried out to the lamb, why do you
muddy the w.ter so / cannot drink"
To this the lamb replied, Il cannot
muddy your water, as the stream runs
down from you to me-" Then the
wolf said, We'll, year ago when l
was drinking here you muddied it,"
But the lamb said, How can that be,
seeing l am not year old yet"
Never mind, | am going to eat you
anyway" replied the wolf, as he
seized the lamb.
In the other fable, a wolf asked
lamb to smell his breath and tell him
how it was. The, lamb did so and said
his breath smelled awful This made
the wolf mad, and he ate the lamb.
The wolf then asked a goat the same
question and the goat said his breath
was sweet as new mown hay. To this
the wolf cried that the goat was a
base fiatteTer and he ate him at once.
Then the wolf asked the fox, and the
fox, thinking he would be diplomat,
answered that he had such bad cold
that he could not SMELL
Then you are of no use to any
body said the wolf, and he ate the
fox also.
If a. nation, with base purpose in
view, like Germany, wants to start
war and it cannot find one excuse it
will find another. No one is safe from
such wolf, no matter what answer
they give or how innocent they are of
intending harm.
That is the reason why America
must see to it that Germany is licked
so completely that no other nation will
ever follow the Prussian example of
forcing war ON people who do not want
to fght-Charles F. Jones.

Camp Pike Men Believe Var viii End
Soon After They AriOc "Ooer There "
BY GEORGE M. SMITH.

1t would be the most foolish thing in
the world for anyone to attempt to
draw a comparison between some
other army cantonment and Camp
Pike. 1t can't be done.
1t is interesting to me, and so much
so that am sure 1T will be of interest
to you, to know that there are right
now close to 10000 soldiers and Off
GERS at Camp Pike who compose as
conscientious, patriotic, >"get-the-
kaiser" bunch as can be found in any
training camp anywhere You know,
I'd tell the world I'm proud of them.
When they step out (doesn'G make a
bit of difference whether it is for
drill or ditch digging) they put real
pep" into their every movement If
the soldiers in every camp in the
United States are as we'll trained and
as enthusiastic as are the men at
Camp Pike, this war isn't going to
last as long as we thought it would
1t doesn't make one bit of difference
where the men are from, they are all
anxious to get to the firing line just as
soon as Uncle Sam can send them.
Camp Located on Hill
The 5000 acres of land covered by
IHS camp are right up on great h1ll
making drainage and sewer conditions
just about what they should be. You
keep climbing and climbing, gradually
and when you come to the top of the
long grade you look out over one of
the prettiest sights you'd ever want
to see. There are rows and rows of
barracks buildings 1t takes more
than LOO buildings to take care of
the soldiers of Camp Pike. They are
comfortable and they are cIean-al-
ways. Wipe your feet" is the warn
ing given you if you are about to enter
a building with muddy shoes. The
boys are ready for inspection" at any
time. And, what's more, they are
proud of it. And you can't blame
them. There are some 1000 acres of
floor space that the men, individually,
are proud of. Why, they often drop
their clothes on the floor and then
wear them right out to inspection,
brushing not being necessary.
II you want to walk over the 80
miles of roads in the cantonment you

will see some interesting things
You'H see regular fire stations and on
the street corners you'll find fire
alarm boxes. You will be simply
amazed when you come to the base
hospital. And if you could go through
1t, some of your ideas, or ones that you
have accepted, about army cantonment
hospitals would be revised to a very
great degree.
The finest kind of water runs
through the 81 miles of water mains
In the camp. When the water and the
30 miles of sewers were being put in,
it was necessary in many places to go
as deep as 2S feet.
Slxteen-Mile Clothes Line
If it were possible to stretch out the
weekly clothes line into one long line,
you wouldn't care anything about tax

other If you really insisted, though,
you would enjoy a sixteen mile tramp.

X. OF C.. FUND RALLY At
OPERA HOUSE TONIGHT
Speakers Include Secretary of State
Fleetwood. Capt Frank P. Stretton,
Rev A. C. Griffin and W. R.
McFeeters.

Notwithstanding the fact that the sus-
pension of business as the result of the
fuel administration order has operated as
a temporary setback to the plans of the
X. of C., war fund committee, there are
many encouraging features of the cam
paign launched Sunday, and good be-
ginning for the Barre canvass viii be
made in the opera house this evening,
when large crowd is expected to gather
for the war fund rally. Mayor Glysson
will open the meeting at s o'clock. The
Barre pipe and drum band will furnish
music and the speakers announced are:
Secretary of State Frederick G. Fleet
wood, Capt Frank P Stretton of Chi
cago, Rev A. c. Griffin of Wallingford,
and States Atty w. r. McFeeters of st.
Albans. Everybody is invited to attend,
as some of the little known reasons why
we are at war will be made clear in the
speeches.
To-day members of the committee
were busying themselves with final ar
raneements for the rally. In anticipa-
ton of an intensive season of campaign
ing many posters were distributed about
VI
the canvass. Business men of Barre and
other towns included in the jurisdiction
of the local committee are in receipt of a
letter from which the following extracts,
bearing on the purpose of the campaign,
are taken:
"The uppermost thought of all patriot
ic citizens is to win the war To win the
war -effectively-it is essential
that we aid in keeping up the morale of
our army. No agency is doing more in
this way than the Knights of Columbus
at its recreation buildings at the army
cantonments in this country and near
the fighting lines in France. The aver
age business man has passed beyond the
enlisting age. His spirit of loyalty and
"a atriotism, however, is as keen as that of
he Younger men. But hescannot get into
he ranks. He can and he is aiding to
win the war with his freely given dollars.
IF our American soldier boys in
France should put up the white flag at

would we Think What would we say
,ut there is no danger of that, they will
