HIS FACE TO THE STARS

How little we realize the fine
white light that burns in the soul
of millions of our allies. This let
ter, written by a Slovenian workman
who was offered an honorable dis
charge from the Army, appeared in
The New Republic:
81 received the civil clothes sent
me from Cleveland, and at the same
time thought occurred to me which
never left me, that | should feel
ashamed to leave the Army and go
back to civil life. Indeed, how
I love my young, healthy life; how
| long to be free again, going on
my own ways without hearing the
command of another. But, alas |!
am / justified to think of my own
liberty and happy life, when the
moment is here that calls on every
young man to bring liberty to 9th
ers? Away, you selfish thoughts!
On into the battle! am Slo-
vene myself, and my fathers and
grandfathers never had any oppor-
tunity to fight for liberty. Indeed,
they fought for hundreds of years
under the command of the Haps-
burgs to continue slavery and ty-
ranny. Good bye, my beloved
young life, l shall not return to
my happy home until the day has
come when can proudly see the
liberated Jugoslavia in a liberated
world. Then l shall return, con-
scious that | have done my bit. If
| shall perish am afraid l will
let it be so; the only thing l am
sorry about it that | don't possess
hundreds of lives, giving them all
for liberty.
Dear brother, the suit of clothes
you sent me l sold today to a man
for $50 who thinks less than | do"
The same devotion is in the hearts
of our own boys who have gone or
are going to the front.

WOODROW WILSON

answered as follows:
cat President Wilson's request,
l have decided to accept the nomina-

for service to our people during the
present and coming readjustment, |
am ready and willing to do every
thing | possibly can to assist our
President in this great work. Every
man must expect to make great flu
ture sacrifices and be prepared to
serve wherever the greatest need
exists"

GREATEST RACE
IN ALL HISTORY
(Contributed)


Lloyd George was right in saying
that the war is now race between
America and Germany.
The eyes of the world are watch
ing the contestants in this race.
Europe particularly is holding it's
breath.
And with the speed that America
is demonstrating it is patent that
the Kaiser needs to get his peculiar
sort of Colt to dish out some rare
favors to avert the calamities Amer
lea is about to hurl on the armies
of the War Lord.
That this Colt is deaf and
dumb sort of spiritualistic freak of
| the Kaiser's mad Imagination we
have little doubt. Therefore, we
feel safe in the prediction that his
Imperial Majesty Wilhelm II, Won
Hindenburg and Won Ludendorf and
the millions of Huns are on the
threshold of the damndest licking
any bunch of highbinders and muir
derers ever got in all the ages
whereof history speaks.
Kaiser Bill is a four-flusher.
He is an imperialistic faker of the
first water.
He can only strike the magma
ton in the fact that he is the most
gigantic Conspirator the world has
ever known.
But he can't make good in the ul-
innate
The game has been tried many
times before, but creatures of auto
cratic will cannot stand the gaff
that the freemen of the world can
put across.
The handwriting already is on
the walls of history. 1t is fore
Swallowed in current happenings that
the Mad House of Hohenzollern will
soon tumble like the Idiotic House
of Romanoff.
1t will fall because the freemen of
the world are fully aroused. The
Great Decision has been made in
the hearts of those who love liberty
more than they do life.
Back of the Great Decision are
the Stronghearts of the earth. Ar
mics matchless in their fighting
qualities and the glory that lies in
the human soul are ready for the
Ultimate Attack.
And back here in America-the
land of High Ideals-the working
men of the nation have taken the
high resolve that freedom must not
perish.
And from every shop and mill.
every foundry and shipyard, every
mine and field, every factory and
forest the Sons of Industry are
making the air vibrate with the in
tensity of their earnestness to make
the World Safe for Democracy.
Inc race? No selling-plater like
Germany could ever win a race from
thoroughbred like America! It
isn't in the scheme of things as
God Almighty shaped it.
The House of Freedom is being
improved.
The House of Hohenzollern is about
to collapse.

HUNS MUST ABANDON
WEST FRONT PUSH TO
SAVE MITTEL-EUROPA

BY Newspaper Enterprise Association
LONDON, June 2s.-An extraordinary
official document Just published here
convicts the Germans out OF their own
mouths OF complete guilt for the reign
OF atrocity and murder I'm Belgium dur
ing the opening days OF the war
This document is known as the Bel
gian Grey Book. II has just been pub
llshed in English by the Royal sta
tlonery Office.
In II the Belgian government has set
forth after the most painstaking re-
search the complete story OF proved
cases OF wholesale atroclty committed
by the Huns. But the remarkable feat
ure of the book Is that, parallel TO the
Belgian case. every important passage
from the official German documents
defending the atrocities Is printed.
The Final Evidence.
Thus, side by side, the Belgian and
German stories are made available for
the first time.
The German evidence Is taken verba-
tim from the German White Book.

Official German excuses case by case,
AT Charleroi 60 houses were systemat-
ically burned down, and 10 civilians
perlshed. One witness produced by the
Huns, a private, states that he saw
three civilians around the body OF a
German dragoon whose eyes had been
gouged out On this sole assertion the
White Book seeks 10 justify the Char
leroi massacre.
At Dinant the Germans claim there
was murderous street lighting on the
part OF Belgian women and children.
