ARMY SKINS DISHWATER
TO KEEP GUNS WORKING

60 many are the army'S uses for
fats that almost up to the front line
trenches the very grease Is skinned
of the dishwater. Sammy has learn
ed In the school Of experience how
the high explosive shells which splash
ND the scenery In front OF him use up
q whole lot of nitro-glycerine; and
you can't have nitro-glycerine with
out fat Moreover, IN order to have
those shells explode among the Huns
instead of dropping harmlessly In NO
Mans Land the delicate machinery OF
the big guns has to be kept constantly
creased That's why the Sammies
make no kick whenever the Quarter
masters Department thinks out some
new way Of conserving fats and
greases. It's worth the while.
And here in Maryland 1t should
thrill the patriot home to think that
the tablespoonful of fat that Is saved
by a little extra care may be the
means of blowing up q whole platoon
Of Huns.
II the baby-kiliers were lowering
over Hagerstown, instead Of London
and Paris, everyone would be glad to
contribute Atro-glycerine to clean the
heavens Of these agents of Kaiserlsm'

ing the Notifications" ct Ocean City,
as they have shelled equally fortified
seaside resorts In England, there are
mighty few Marylanders who wouldn't
help shoe them off with a little High
E1plosive-if they had it.
But 1t takes time to turn little odd bits
Of fat into loaded shells. Nor Is there
any place where a loyal housewife
can turn In the ounce Of fat she saves
In her cooking or the Tablespoonful OF
grease she saves from her dishwater.
Her task is to meet her own needs
with her own savings. Thus she does
not have to go into the open market
10 buy fat products in competition
with Uncle Sam, and drive further
skyward the price for both. In
hundred ways the war Is tee>hine
small communities. and even indf
Yidual homes, to be more self-sustaln'
ing. This saving OF fats for home use
for cooking. for washing, etc.-is
one Of the ways.
Warfare has changed a lot In its
methods. Oliver Cromwell once said
to his troops, Trust in God and keep
your powder dry" General Perish
ing's advice might be put like this,
Trust in God and skim the grease
of your dishwater." Home folks
have no gunpowder, but they have
lots of dishwater. Thus they are
able to carry out at home very i'm

Sammies at the front

WAR RISK INSURANCE.

What appears to be the meas
ure best calculated to mitigate
the hardships of war, of all those
adopted by the United States, is
war risk Insurance, under which
soldiers and sailors are able to
take out life insurance up to a
maximum of $1,000 for the pro-
lection of dependents at home.
den in the American forces gen.
orally are taking advantage of
this opportunity, as shown by
the fact that up to date about g.
900, 900 applications, calling for
more than $25, 900, 900, 900 of in
surance, have been received.
During the month of July, it is
stated, about $4,000, 600. 1000 of
war risk insurance has been
written.
Another indication Of the pop
ularity Of this protective feature
lies in the fact that the average
amount Of insurance applied for
per man has been steadily in
creasing. The average policy
now is about So, 500, which is
getting near to the maximum of
$4,000 permitted under the law.
The substitution Of the insur-
ance system for the pension sys-
tenn marks a progressive appre-
citation of the relation of the
government to the dependents
of those who go out to fight the
battles Of the nation. 1t is more
justand more definite than the

ttBUT ONE WAY TO PEACE. AND
THAT IS THE WAY TO
BERLIN.

MY OpIIlIOll 10 C1ldG VIC Sc1AAAioS
consider any terms of peace
whatsoever with the German
Government as now constituted.
Germany must be licked and the
Hohenzollerns kicked off the
throne. before we can even talk
of peace without outraging our
self-respect, says Hudson Maxim
in the Manufacturers Record.
The German military ring must
be broken and so shattered that
it can never be reunited. Those
who have been responsible for
the rape of Belgium and France;
those who have been responsible
for the heinous outrages upon
the civilian pop ulations overrid-
den by Germany; those who have
been responsible for breaking
the rules of war and using pois-
onous gas in battle; those who
have been responsible for tor
pedoing passenger and hospital
ships, and for dropping aerial
bombs on shore. hospitals; those
who have been responsible for
the killing and manning OF
women and children in London
and Paris with aerial bombs;
those who have been responsible
for breaking the most sacred
treaties and obligations-have
placed themselves beyond the
pale and cannot and must not be
bargained with in any peace
arrangement.
Those militaristic bandits OF
the breed of Attilla who cold
bloodedly prepared to plumber
the world and enslave mankind,
and to that nefarious end plann-
ed to violate every human obliga-
ton and attribute of duty, mercy
and decency, are not ut to
place their names to a peace
compact beside those of the
heroes who shall, with sacrifice
of blood and treasure, save the
world from their clutches.
Anyone proposing peace with
Germany before Kaiserism shall
have been crushed out of exist
ence should either be interned
or be placed in an insane ASYLUM
for medical treatment. There is
but one way to peace, and that
is the way to Berlin. 1t will be
long, hard, expensive and
bloody road, but it is the only
road, and when we shall have
arrived at the end OF that ROAD
we shall have only a subjugated,
suppliant, Kamrad-calling popu-
lace to deal with, and the terms
which we shall then make will
not be the terms of any bargain,
but merely terms imposed by us
according to our ideas of justice.
Justice will make one inexor-
able demand on that occasion,
and it will be that Germany shall
bear the burden of rebuilding
and reimbursing Belgium and
the desolated portions of North,
ern France in full measure, and
Alsace and Lorraine must be
restored to France.
What other terms may be i'm
posed will matter far less.

The Mount Holly news. [volume] (Mount Holly, Burlington Co., N.J.) 1891-1942, 1918-05-07
Prosecutor Takes a Hand

In THE News, last week, there was
an account OF some boys in Rfverton
having been arrested for stealing and
malicious mischief and the report
was that they were not to be prosecut-
ed owing to their prominence" in
family circles. Prosecutor Kelsey at
once got busy on the case and called
on the Mayor Of Rivsrton to furnish
all particulars and the names Of those
implicated in the offences. The
Mayor conferred with his policemen
and the result was that officer Miller
came to Mount Holly and had q con-
sultation with the prosecutor. The
latter told the policeman what was ex-
pected in the case.
Mr.. Kelsey made 1t plain that the
state Of New Jersey is interested in
this matter and that If the parties who
were robbed or any Of those having
knowledge Of the crime did not tel
what they knew they would be liable
to indictment for aiding in concsaline
crime. Considerable pressure has beer
put upon the prosecutor to let thil
matter 60 by default but he is firm In
his determinatron to see that the endi
OF justice are not defeated.
In distinct opposition to this case Il
one that occurred in Riverton q few
days ago when six boys were taken be
fore Recorder Troth and fined 70
shooting crap. Evidently they wer'
not of the prominent" set of Riyertor
for they were not only punished bu
their names were given to the publi
in the newspapers. The reason for no
giving the names Of the boys in tn
robbery cases was that they had no
been arrested and the matter wa
therefore not one Of public record.
