MUST NOT FORGET
SACRIFICES MADE
Continued from first page)

GUM? trust that when the treaties
of peace have been finally formulat-
ed and signed, the government OF
the United States will say to the peo-
pies of these long enduring and
much suffering countries: Here is a
receipt in full for every cent of
money we have loaned you to carry
on this war of democracy against au-
tocracy'
Are we going to prepare for per-
manent peace by insisting that every
nation on the face Of the earth beat
its swords into pillow shares and its
spears into pruning hooks, or are we
going to prepare for future wars by
setting the example of building up,
on the ruins of the German military
machine, equally powerful military
and naval Establishments?
MY countrymen, momentous
problems are facing us and they must
be settled on the basis of right and
Justice | trust that this evening,
when the sable mantle of night has
fallen and the myriad stars are shin
ing down upon us, each family will
gather about its hearthstone and
reverently pray:
Lord God Of hosts be with us yet
Lest we forget lest we forget.

The Stacker!
But like profiteer he goes
And fattens on his country's woes,
And how to tax him, no one knows,
The slackeri

And nibbles here and nibbles there;
He's ruthless and does not fight fair,
The Stacker!
He'd rather choose for his attacks
An armless man who can not scratch,
And always hunts in hungry packs,
The Stacker!

Who thirsts for plumber and for lott
But when in danger tries to scoot,

sAnti-Gas Machine Dem0nstra-

The European War has great

chimes used to make troops safe
against gas attacks. This ma
chine is. similar to those used ir
mining operations, which vii
allow for the miners going into
gas that ordinarily would bt
fatal. This machine will be dc
monstrated by Mr.. S. C. Dickin
son. when he is in Nogales or

Mines lecture course which viii
be given at the Santa Cruz Clut
on January Ia, Is, and 16.
Thesuse of the mine rescue
machine has been wonderful
life saver in both metal and coal
mines, and has served as a
means OF getting close to mine
fires for the purpose of fighting
them. The use of this machine
has extended to the fire depart
ments of the large cities, so
that now a fireman does not
stand on the outside with a
hose, but can go right where
the gases and the smoke are the
thickest.
The demonstration Of this
machine will be but a part of the
many interesting things that
will take place during the days
that Mr.. Dickinson will be in
town. The community is going to
avail themselves Of his services
to the fullest extent, for besides
the evening illustrated lectures,
he will also speak before the

hver that everyone should hear,
