1862 and 1918.

The Somersworth IN. H. Free Press
prints the following lines, written by
Mary P. Rollins during the Civil War, to
illustrate the fact that the present times
are not unique in our country's history:
These socks l complete, for the soldier
whose feet
Have kept time to the March of the Ma
ton,
That have never yet beat a shameful re-
treat,
Bringing National humiliation.
Remember-the toe to be kept toward
the foe,
Though bullets and bombs thickly rattle,
He his cowardice seals, that showeth his
heels
In the midst of fierce bloody battle.
While for justice and right you shall gal
lantly fight,
The old star spangled banner defending,
Not idly We'll pause, for the glorious
cause
Our tolls and our prayers will be blend
ing.
If united we stand, the day is at hand,
When glad peace shall return to our bor-
ders.
Oh! The deep soulfelt Joy of the brave
soldier boy,
When for home he receives marching

TO THE TOILERS
OF GERMANY

.~To men and women of the labor classes:
We have reached a turning point IN his
tory. The governments war aims are
now brought to head at Brest-Litovsk.
It has been persistently insisted in the
past that the German government only
wanted to protect the empires borders,
and had no intention of making annexa-
tions No true thinking man can longer
believe this statement.
Germany desires annexation OF RuS-
sian territory. Faithful to democratic
principles Russia's socialistic Govern
ment has made proposal that Poles,
Lithuanians and Let's should decide
through free referendum, after troops
are withdrawn, whether they wish 10
become an Independent State or whether
part of either of two countries Con-
trary to this the German Government
demands that the Russian delegates at
Brest-Litovsk shall acknowledge that
those countries have already parted from
Russia and simultaneously our govern
ment refused to withdraw the troops
from these districts Immediately after
peace conclusion or Russian demoblllZa-
ton.
sThis nearly caused the peace negotia-
tions to strand The Russian Govern
ment replied as expected-That decl-
sion taken in presence of foreign troops
cannot be regarded as rejecting the true
desire of the population

Glorious Canada.

Canada has been at war three years
and SIX months. Her population is estl-
mated to be 5000, 000-a little larger by
one million than the New England States.
She has sent across the seas so far ap-
proximately 400, coo men, of whom 35,-
coo have been buried in Flanders; 50, 600
have returned home crippled or PHYSICAL
ly incapacltated and she is now engaged
in raising another 100, 000 for the service
Of the British empire. During these
years Canada has loaned England more
than $500, 000, 600 besides paying her own
troops and meeting her own expenses in
the war Outside of the Province of
Quebec there is hardly family III Can
ada which hasn't some one OF its mem
bers across the sea in the trenches and
the greater proportion of these families
mourn some member who has been either
killed or wounded.

Valuable OIL Frcnl Corn.

The latest by-pr"duct from corn de-
veloped by a chemist is corn oil. Every
buShel of corn used fer starch. corn,
sugar and similar products yi1ldS one
and one-half pounds of corn oil, which
is extracted from the germ of the kerr
mel, the little triangular part of the
corn which one sees when eating
sweet corn. This germ is so full of oil
that its floating properties are used to
separate it from the starch which
makes up the kernel Itself. and the
corn oil is pressed from it. Corn oil is
a wholesome. appetizing substitute for
high-priced olive oils when refined. and
it is said to be much cleaner than olive
oil. The scarcity Of olive oil due to
the war. has led to a marked increase
in the use of corn oil in this country
for salad and cooking purposes. Hth-

Submarine Warfare,

WASHINGTON, Feb. g. Representative
Miller, who recently visited the battle
front in France, told the House Tuesday
that he believed German submarines are
being destroyed about as rapidly as Ger
many can build them. He praised Vice
Admiral Sims for the methods he had
adopted with American destroyers and
cruiser conveys to combat the submarine
menace and urged that American ship
ping should be handled by naval officers
and not by the shipping board There
were no Americans in the crews of the
two transports on which he crossed the
Atlantic, he said.
Mr. Miller said during the past 10
months three times as many submarines
have been destroyed as were destroyed
during the previous two and half years.

RIGHTS of Labor Restricted.

at is true that negotiations have been
resumed, but Germany's population is ex-
posed to great danger no less than that OF
Russia. If Germany should succeed in a
peace of might against the Russian peo-
ple this would be fatal to Russia and
Poles. Lithuanians and Let's, but still
more fatal to ourselves. The conse-
ouence would be postponement of a
general peace, new threats and desire for
revenge, increased ornaments and in
tensitied reaction in our country.
''This calamity must be avoided. Par

PAPER Trousers in Germany.

Paper trousers are now being worn by
a large proportion of the male population
of Germany. Whole suits for men are
being sold which contain practically no
fabric except paper, but the demand for
paper fabric far exceeds the supply. Col
lars are now selling in Berlin for nearly
rs cents each and shoe laces of paper
yarn are Is cents pair Leather is pc
coming almost unobtainable. Boots with
wooden soles are worn even by the better
class and fully 40 per cent. of the SOL
diers at the front are wearing wooden
soled boots. The "standard' shoes that
are sold contain only ten per cent leather.
In many cases the uppers are made out OF
old ships sails, tent awnings and lmpreg-
mated burlap. Paper for ordinary pur-
poses has become SO scarce that some
provincial newspapers are using low
grade colored papers.

Working Masses Want Peace.

"This disclosed clearly what position
the Government takes on question of
policy of might. The Pan-Germans con-
slider themselves in power. They are al
lowed all the meetings they please, and
unhindered discussion of their war aims.
Their press writes as it pleaSeS The
Fatherland party is about to open tenn
pest petitions in favor of the annexa-
tionistic programme. If the laboring
classes now fail to emphasize their posi-
ton it will probably be taken as approval
of this agitation, or it will be thought
that the masses of the German people
are not yet tired of this terrible war and
are willing to give support to continue
the terrible war on still greater scale.
Indeed the masses of the people think
and feel differently. They want the
bloody murder, devastation, sutferlngs
and hunger brought to early conclusion.
This is only attainable upon basis OF
democratic peace Until now the only
adversarles of such peace have spoken.
They vociferously rule over Government
and the public in Germany.
"Women and men of working classes
have no time to lose. After all past hor-
ror and suffering a new and terrible Ca
lamity is threatening our people, the
whole of mankind in fact Only peace
without annexations and compensatlons
and upon the basis of the peoples self
determination can save US. Time has
now come to raise a voice favoring such
a peace. 1t is now your turn.
