WHAT MAKES OUR BOYS FIGHT

81 have talked to bunch OF fellows
since being over here" writes Guth-
rie. Okla, boy to his parents. AT
first, upon arriving in France, they
hadn't got much fight in them-not
that they aren't fighters, but they
hadn't seen some things yet. And then,
after a trip to the front where things
they had heard OF and read about in
the States were actually seen they
would return with changed look on
their faces, and swear that they would
fight until the last Boche ON this earth
was killed and his home burned to the
ground"
And what are the things that
change their spirit so? Such sights
as these, set forth in the same letter:
Refugees are returning to this part
of the country just now, and it makes
a fellow heartsick, or something like
kids hanging on to their skirts, dog
or two, a cat, canary going
back to start all over again, trying to
make living out of nothing, possi-
bly, with their men-folks killed or
fighting, chickens all killed off by the
Boche. gardens ruined by shellfire and
Germans, their little cottages destroy
ed-if not by direct shell-fire, by the
deliberate hand of those dirty hell
hounds. Some return in two-wheeled
carts drawn by horse, others return
on foot, getting a ride wherever chance
favors them. Last night / saw a truck
stop and gather in a couple of fami-
lies returning to their ruined homes.
"In one house | saw piano hacked
from the walls, chinaware smashed,
silver strewn over the room, magni-
ficent candlesticks which can never
be replaced broken and lying about
the floor, great featherticks with which
the French were we'll supplied, ripped
open and the feathers scattered to the
winds. Everything that could possibly
amount TO anything was destroyed.
The dirty Boche certainly deserves
the name. A poor. old woman was the
only resident back in the little village
when we we're there. and the little
cottage was ruined"
II only hope" concludes the
writer, that the war lasts long
enough to give the Germans some of
sI,os- ,,,.,, ,,,ad;c;pa L., thot limo p,t
that will never come to pass First,
the Germans will make peace when
they see we are about to enter Ger
many; secondly, if they do not, and
we enter her country. there is nobody
fighting for the Allies who is low
down enough to do the rot which the
Germans have done to the homes of
the innocent non-combatants.'
This last statement is doubtless
true. The Allies are too decent to pay
Germany in her own coin. But for
that reason they will fight all the more
fiercely. in ways sanctioned by honor
and self-respect. to punish the linus
for all the needless wretchedness, de-
vastation an dpollution they have
wrought
And still those stupid Boches per-
sist in their crazy belief that all their
ingenious malevolence and filthiness
has military value"-when it mere
ly adds TO the severity of their mill
tary punishment and the moral and
financial reckoning they will have to
face hereafter.
