What the Imperial German govern.
ment offered the farmers OF America
in its ruthless submarine warfare was
not the loss OF profits, but slavery to
the saber-rattler of Potsdam. He pur-
posed to make us slaves by murder
ing the people who took our products
to market. BY all the laws of civil
lied warfare, commerce under a neu-
trail flag was free from any hindrance
by war But the Germans not only
stopped merchant vessels, they sank
them Sank them without warning
without trsce-the most devilish
thing war has seen since the savages
scslped our ancestors and threw
screaming babies into the flames OF
burning cabins.
The German plan OF sinking mer-
chant vessels without trace is based
on the murderer's maxim that dead
men tell no tales II was exc
cuted by the massacre OF men. wom-
en- and children, who, having COM
mitted themselves to small boats in
the open sea after their ships were
torpedoed, were mercilessly raked

last unprotected, unpitied soul. These
are the murders that stain the hands
OF the Kaiser, his advisers and min
ions These outrages were perpetrated
on neutral vessels when all that civ
ilized warfare gave the Germans
right to do even with the merchant
vessel under a hostile flag was to
stop it at sea and make it a prize of
war
To kill the civilians on board, even
under hostile flag, was nothing but
unmitigated murder. And these muir.
ders were committed in order that we
might be enslavedi Having the
right to take the sea with his feet.
but being afraid to do so for fear he
might lose it, and being unable by
fair means to stop the selling of our
products to his enemies, the Kaiser
declared that he would do it by the
foulest methods ever resorted to in
war. He declared the sea closed.
and that he would keep II closed, not
by war. but by murder.
To have submitted would have cost
us dear in prosperity but that would
have been the least OF our loss.

THE WAR, THE FARM
AND THE FARMER
BY Herbert Q--;-.s
Member Federal Farm Loan Board

The farms of this country could
AIRY the war to a victorious con
fusion even IL all the rest of the ma
ions should quit. The rest will not
quit; but we could win il without
hem il we had to do II. The farmers
of the United States can whip Ger
many. We can whip them with guns
We can whip them with our products
We can whip them with our money
Every farmer in the United States
must remember that the war has a
first mortgage on every cent he has.
The last spare cent in the pockets OF
every farmer in America should be
devoted to the war.
The Kaiser began foreclosing his
mortgage on our farms when he de-
clared ruthless submarine warfare.
The war is our answer to his bill of
foreclosure.
Our contribution is, first our sons
and brothers for the trenches; sec
ond the last pound of food products
which we can grow by modifying our
scanty labor supply utilizing the men,
people about us; and third, money
for Liberty Bonds
This is the crucial year OF the war
Our soldiers are at the front, hun
dreds of thousands OF them in the
trenches, and a million more ready to
go. The whole burden of carrying on
our own part in the war and of aid
ing our sister nations in arms, rests
on the United States Treasury.
II the treasury fails or falters or
finds itself unable to respond to every
call upon il, the war is lost Do you
realize that?
Your son, and all the nations sons
are relying on the United States
Treasury to furnish things with which
they may fight
Their lives are lost If the treasury
fails. Our country is lost if the treas
lry fails.
Germany wins if the treasury fails.
Therefore every cent you can rake
and scrape together belongs to the
treasury, that our soldiers may come
back to us alive and victorious. This
is literally true. We can whip the
Germans with our money; but not
with the money in our pockets or
bank accounts. II must go into the
United States Treasury in subscrip-
lions TO Liberty Bonds.

BRUNETTE TYPISTS MORE
EFFICIENT THAN BLONDES
GOVERNMENT, HOWEVER, FINAL
LY is FORCED TO HIRE LIGHT
COMPLExIoNED GIRLS.

The blonde typewriters of America
had reason to fidget the other morning
when the government estimate of them
was casually set forth to the world, says
the Washington Times. 1t appears that
the glowing tributes heretofore bestow-
ed on them by the tired business men
have been as inaccurate as have been the
exceedingly biased estimates of the tir-
ed business man s wife.
The blonde typewriter, though a joy
to the eye, is nervous, temperamental
and othsr than steady, so the govern
.ment has decided.
When the government undertook to
pay its new, growing and splendid
army, it was found necessary to hire a
few acres of typewriters. Every avail
able loft, hospital, dance hall and store
in Washington was fitted out as place
in which typists might type, and so
great was the volume of work that the
utmost care was taken in the matter of
employing help.
Things had to be done accurately.
quickly and continuously and that types
of typists were considered at length by
person qualified to know star key
RATHER at glance.
Well, sir, more than 5000 typists were
at work before blonde typist was ac-
cepted. Every brunette available had
been pounding the keyboard for days
before it was finally decided that the
light locked element must be admitted
through force of circumstances. There
were no more brunette typewriters out
of work
Then came the beautiful blonde spring
drive They came with blue eyes,
dimples, little curls, golden Psychic,
pink ears and smiles, that made the
grouchy expects dizzy, but left them
unconvinced. They knew that all this
dazzle did not alter the fact
that every blonde cherub was as nerv-
Gus as a kitten and that in burst of
might very well send
major general IS pay check to an obscure
corporal.
But they were employed and now
each blonde in the government service
sits between two brunette typists who |
devote themselves to the tasks of doing
their own work and steadying their
golden haired companion at the first
sign of hysteria. Some of them in their
bland brunette way have remarked that
q il must be grand to be born a pet. ~

While Gerard was our am bassador
in Berlin. the Kaiser said to him one
day that he would stand no nonsense
from America after the war.

means that the Germans intend to

out of this war victorious.

megalomania. One OF their great
writer's expressed the prevailing. Of

Never since the Turks threatened
to overwhelm Europe was the world
in such danger as now. Germany
must be defeated this year. Unless
we win, our place in the world Is
lost, and our history as one OF the
"servient elements" begins. We must
withhold nothing from the support OF
the war. We must give our sons. We
must bring forth food in abundance.
We must give into the treasury of the
United States every cent we can
spare.

is up to the farmers; and Uncle Sam
