take us into their homes, mend our
clothes and do everything they can
think OF for us. What they can't
do they put up to the Red Cross,
which can and does do most every
thing.
Just a word to close. We who
came from Fort Slocum We're all
enlisted men but they have put
drafted men in with us here. You
can't tell them apart They are all
Americans and they will give their

Christian Organization.

The oath annual conference OF the
Maine Methodist Episcopal church
has been held and adjourned. From
those who have followed the sessions
day by day. We are assured that it
was most successful and satisfactory
in every way. 1t is not our purpose
to dwell upon the detail. the appoint
ments. the addresses or the devo-
ton. All these were expected and
are granted. No Christian organiza-
ton is showing more zeal or ef-
ficiency. greater skill or resource in
meeting the developments of time,
higher evidence of the endowment of
His love. and His mission.
But to us stands out the bigger
fact that at no time in the history of
the world has the maintenance of
Christian organization been so neces :
sary, As in the hour when the very
foundations Of human brotherhood
are tottering before an anti Christ
camouflaged as in partnership with
Gcd.
Are the Christian organizations
p. epared" for war? Are they con-
serving their moral strength. and
their stores Of that ammunition
TUNED over to them 1000 years ago?

DANISH CATARRH
Breathe kiyomei for Two Minutes
and Stuffed Up Head Will Get Relief

If YOU want to get relief from catarrh,
cold in the head or from an irritating
cough in the shortest ,lme breathe Hy
Onel.
X will clean out your head in two
minutes and allow you to breathe freely.
Hyomein will end a cold in one day,
it will relieve you of disgusting snuffies,

in a week.
Hyomei is made chiefly from a sooth-
ing, healing. germ killing antisept!c,
that comes from the eucalyptus forests
of inland Australia where catarrh,
asthma and consumption were never,
known to exist.
Hyomei is pleasant and easy to
breathe. Just pour a few drops into the
hard rubber inhaler. use as directed
and relief is almost certain.
A complete Hyomei outfit. including
inhaler and one bottle of Hyomei, costs
but little at druggists everywhere and al

MUST go ahead ana they Gan MI.
They have won nothing; they
can't 20 back, and they can't remain
THEY CAN'T GO AHEAD MUCH
LONGER"
That was five days ago. two days
before the British planted their feet
and stood like a rock-written at a
time when some Of us were losing
confidence and giving voice TO oar
fears.
What is the logical conclusion"
he asks. 1t is this: Gen. Foch Is
breaking the morale of the German
army. He is permitting to sink into
the minds of the men Of the ranks
the fact that they have won nothing"
but useless, devastated territory:
that they can't go back" over the
windows and heaps of comrades and
face the people at home: that they
can't remain" for they are being re-
lentlessly wiped out of existence 10y
the allied foe who has inexhaustibie
supplies of guns and munitions and
is fighting from prepared positions;
and NOW they can't go on"
Gen. Foch is allowing the in
exorable logic OF me situation to take
possession of the Germany army,
which fully understands that a great
reserve force may be hurled at them
at any hour.
That is Gen. Foch's job, but
We have a Job Of the same kind,
right here in the United States, in
Maine, in Augusta q Job to break
the German morale. to kill the cour-
age of the German war masters, to
prove to the German people the
futility of squandering the lives of
millions of their best manhood in at
tempt to control the world.
How can we thus aid Gen. Foch in
his deep strategy? BY fastening our
shipment of troops and supplies to
France; by sending an unending tide
Of food and funds to our allies; by
appropriating billions for war: by
converting our bond issues into cash
for the government and interest
bearing bonds for home boarding.
At the hour when Germany must
see all her plans and desires
crumbling we should redouble ou- eff
forts for the crushing blow, come
when it may.
3 Now for the Liberty Bonds; rext
for the Red Cross. Hustle the new
regiments along; encourage our own
government: put our hearts and en-
ergies into it for q final drive.
Let's end 1t by July 4. if possible:
if not, then certainly by Thanksgiv
