AMERICANS URGED TO
SUPPORT WAR POLICY
National Security League Renews Its
Pledge to Government.

New York, May 12.-Celebrating
its third anniversary with a meeting
tonight in the Metropolitan opera
house the National Security League
pledged itself anew to fight for all
things American and adopted resolu-
tions urging all Americans to unite
more firmly than ever before in sup
porting the national war policy.
Elihu Root, honorary president of
the league and chief speaker of the
question which all Americans-the
evening, asserted that the great
mem in the trenches and those at
home-must answer is whether this
government, because it has been
free, because it has left its people
free" is "toO weak to maintain itself
in the presence of this great emerg-
ency.".
"We must answer it with faith, he
said, faith in our fathers and our
fathers God, with courage, courage
that braved the seas and fought the
savage and tanned the wilderness and
built this mighty nation; high cOur-
age that fears the face of no man,
or with craven hearts surrendering
our birthrights. We must answer it
with determination that will outlast
all encouragement, all doubt and pes
simism, determined to win, and to
win by the force of arms, to win by
the power and manhood of this great
virile nation"
There are but two ways out of the
war. continued Mr.. Root.
"One," he said, "is humiliation, re-
treat and slavery, for it will be slav-
cry. The people of Russia have found
out what it meant to yield to Ger
many, and if we retreat, if we sur
render, we will learn what it means
to become a people subject to the
arrogant and brutal power.
"The other way out is by employ
ing the power of the manhood of this
100, 900, 900 people by the unstinted
use of our wealth and by the exer-
| else of that individual strength and
morale which has been brought to
maturity by generations of life and
freedom"
In presenting his report for the
year, S. S~tandwood Menken, presl-
dent of the league, recommended the
! suppression of German language pa
pers in the United States and urged
that the German language be no long
er taught in the schools of this cOun-
try. His audience a%pplauded these
recommendations.

PROPER FOOD FOR
WEAK STOMACHS

The proper food for one man may
be all wrong for another. Every one
should adopt a diet suited to his age
and occupation. Those who have
weak stomachs need to be especially
careful and should eat slowly and
masticate their food thoroughly. 1t
is also important that they keep their
bowels regular. When they become

GERMAN HELLISHNESS-
A TRUE STORY

In a certain section of the state of
Louisiana a colony of Belgian farm
ers located several years before the
present war. Many members of the
peaceful and happy little colony had
left relatives and friends in Belgium,
and when prosperity began to come,
thought of visiting the land of their
birth and the loved ones left be-
hind were uppermost in the minds of
many.
Among these was a family of four
father, mother. son and daughter
"a devoted family educated and re-
fined. In the summer of 1914 it was
decided that the mother-a cOmely
woman on the sunny side of 40, and
the daughter should make the long
hoped for visit, and the two arrived
safely in Belgium, according to a let
ter written at that time.
Then the horde Of Prussian brutes
overran- and devastated that coun-
try and no further word was heard by
the anxious husband and father from
these two innocent and helpless wo-
men, then American citizens, for two
long years, then the broken-hearted
mar received the following note,
smuggled through in some manner by
way of Switzerland:
my Dearest Husband-For many
weary months l have sought means
by which | might communicate with
you, and the hope that | might sue
succeed has caused me to remain
alive. Our poor child is already dead
died by her own hand, to end a
life of enforced shame and degreda-
ton too horrible for human voice to
express.
1--WE were enslaved by these Ger
man beasts in human form, and when
our bodies were no longer useful to
them on account of the horrors of
loathsome disease, we were forced to
perform the most mental tasks, even
to the plucking of crawling insects
from their reeking and filthy naked
bodies.
my own darling husband, you will
now know-if you have not already
guessed-why | never hope to re-
turn to you, and long before this
reaches our own adopted America
if it ever dOeS-I shall be dead.
Say to our boy that | hope he will
join the army in France and that his
mother will pray with her last dying
breath that the Almighty God will
strengthen his arm that he can in
some small measure aVange the
things done by these vultures in hu-
mar form. l pray that we shall all
be joined again in the great Beyond,
where things like this can never be.

a man of the highest standing, oc-

Indoor Baseball Knocks
Cricket Into Cooked
Hat, Say English

Baseball as played indoors during
the winter months in the United
States is proving remarkably popular
among the Allied soldiers in France.
1t is played. of course, out of doors,
but the larger indoor ball is used and
the rules of indoor baseball adhered
to. 1t seems to be an easier game as
we'll for the British soldiers to. learn
than the more scientific and technical
outdoor baseball. 1t is quickly learn
ed, and it's caliber is not too high to
admit an amateur. The English SOL
diers find that any good cricket play
er possesses sufficient qualifications to
feel at home in a few innings.
On athletic fields and aerodromes
all over France, one may see scores of
British, Canadian. Australian and
American officers and men, playing in

ness never displayed at cricket

he will never enter the ring again.

remember the words you had writ

unnecessary chances" Anyway, there
we were, two little Frenchmen hump

say two, because my leader, hav-
ing lower-powered plane than ours
was endeavoring to get away by div
ing to a lower level. That did not
appeal to me though, seeming more
dangerous and when he came home
and said he had fell among seven
l was convinced,of the wisdom of my
decision. for l chanced the menace of
the three Huns and kept heading
straight ahead. AS they drew closer
and 1 could distinguish their chunky
lines. and their white tails with it's
black cross L had a sudden desire to
meet them head on, and fight it out.
With this thought in mind. l looked
up at the strange Spad overhead 90
see whether he had the same thought,
for he was higher than the Huns and
thus in more advantageous posi-
tion while l was on the same level.
"Bang" Go Boches
But apparently he had no such de-
sire. for he kept right on going and
made no sign of showing fight, so
seeing that the odds were three to
one not very favorable at that 1 re-
linguished the idea of opening fire,
but If was undecided the Boche were
not, for about that time they decided
| they were close enough and opened
fire with both guns-au three of
them. They didn't follow us far, for
would you believe it, we ran plunl<
into ten more, who were milling
around in their circle formation at
all heights while several Spads high
overhead dove down now and then
to the attack. Talk about being be-
tween the devil and the deep blue
sea! Golly! 1 sure was glad I had
not stopped to cross bullets with
those three, for those ten coming up
on the other side would sure have
made it hot for me. AS it was I had
troubles enough and three Boche on
my tail not withstanding. T proceeded
to get some more space under me,
for several of those ten were as high
as I was. 1 lost track of the other
Spad about that time and also the
original three Boche.
Home in n Thunderstorm
Incidentally, several of the second
patrol at probably, 200 meters under
me stood up on their tails and began
speaking their little piece also. BY
this time had been shot at so often
that I was getting sore, and seeing
favorable opportunity as one Boche
turned to regain his patrol, I turned
both guns on him and did a little
shooting myself. True. 1 did not
knock him down. but it was a grim
relief to see my bullets go sailing
towards him like little sparks of
fire.
When 1 pulled out of the dive in
which 1 had been throwing flaming
stars around so promiscuous, another
Spad shot past me who had dropped
down from above-and then they
shot at us some more. I jumped in
n friendly cloud then. and seeing
that had been out nearly my limit
, of time 1 came out of the cloud and
| headed home. One would think had
done enough dodging for one day,
but on my way home I had to dodge
a thunderstorm. And believe me a
thunderstorm seen from aloft is an
l.awe-inspiring spectacle.
