Atlanta, Ca, Oct. sergeant

the Croix de Guerre with the palm'
and who is convalescing at Fort NC
Pherson, went out to Camp Gordon
with Mrs. Samuel Lumpkin, district
chairman of woman's work in the
Liberty Loan campaign, and ad-
dressed the army Of civilian workmen
just as they were lined up to draw
their pay. He obtained $4,000 In
bond subscriptions hardly a man fall
ing to subscribe.
In the Liberty bond campaign
among the soldiers in the camp there
were many surprises. A young lieu
tentant took $4,000 and one company
cook took his hands out Of the dish
water, found fountain pen and check
book, and wrote his check for $lO,-
900. His captain said he was good
for ten times that amount.

sections of America sent to the west
ern front by the American Society
of Friends. has been almost COM
pletely wiped out by bombs dropped

scribed his experience as follows:
Il was awake when the bomb fell.
I don't remember much noise, only
the motion. The whole room semei
to lurch back toward where the
bomb fell, and then went down. We
fell fast and seemed to be falling
through all eternity. My life wa
saved by my bed shooting across the
room. The cupola of the adjoining
building fell where by bed stood.
"The adjutant Of the unit was bur
led under the debris for three hours

ON TO BERLIN!
(By Henri Chappelle of The
Vigilantes)

Our boys "over there" write home
as though they really expected 10
march on Berlin some day. Is this
merely delusion encouraged in
them to keep them in heart for fight
ing? Perish the thought! Their
slangy "can the Kaiser" expresses
an intention as serious as that of the
Crusades, and we ought not to dream
Of thwarting them by diplomatic ac-
ton.
Any talk of Peace, by the way, re-
calls the fact that such treaties must
be based ON confidence in the word
of the parties involved, and that our
Government has expressed a cert
tain disapproyal of trying to deal
with a political coterie that sees in
treaties only "a scrap of paper" II

compact with them would at once &C.
knowledge their honorable and legit.
itimate standing as governmental
representatives How, after that,
could this Government encourage the
people of Germany to displace them
as unworthy and to establish more
democratic government? Impossible
The only place where we can help
democracy in Germany is the field
of battle. We can there capture or
kill the guilty individuals or by
straight conquest of territory drive
them to an unconditional surrender.
We could then hold them prisoners
while we called for newly elected
Representatives of the German people
tc treat with us for a lasting peace
Our boys are simple and courageous
enough to expect to do just that
They are gallant fighters enough to
do it, if we too back them by saying
"On to Berlin!
