What our boys in France think
about "peace TALK is forcibly ex-
pressed in 1.-THE Stars and Stripes, !"
official newspaper in France of the
American Expeditionary Force, in
these words:
"Let the weak-hearted who are
dreaming of compromise; let the
pacifots who are talking of peace by
agreement; let the side-liners who
have had enough of war; let the
secretly inclined pro-Germans who
think this war should end without a
decision; let them one and all know
once for all that the American EX-
peditionary Force there is no such
word as peace with the Huns I'M
beaten. THE MAN WHO TALKS
PEACE TODAY, EXCEPT THRU
VICTORY, IS A TRAITOR"
The enemy peace offensive is liken-
ed to the action Of German machine
gun crews in the Vesle fighting,
when they fought and killed Ameri-
cans until they were surrounded, then
shouted "KameraG.

The object of the Fourth Liberty

peace, an American peace.

War is a thing that doesn't take a vacation
Learning Conservation.

Americans learning lesson of conserva-
tion in this that will rebound to the benefit OF
the nation for all future time. In place of being
a nation of spendthrifts, in the past,
learning the lesson that waste is crime
An Atlanta grocer recently received a shipment
consisting of several coops of very small chickens
of the size known as broilers He weighed a large
number and discovered that they averaged about
three-quarters of pound a piece He knew that
when they picked and dressed they would
make hardly than good mouthful. He
knew that if fed for two three weeks they would
practically double in weight.
So he addressed a letter to the Federal Food
Administration for Georgia, suggesting that rule
be issued against the sale of chickens the
weighing less than a pound and half, and the
Food Administration, at once perceving the wis
dom of this idea announced regulation accord
ngly.
This Atlanta grocer feels that he has performed
a genuine service of conservation. He figures that
thousands of small chickens weighing less than
pound being sold for broiers, when by feed
ing them a short time they could be made to weigh
twice as much, thereby securing tremendous con
servation in the food supply
1t is safe to say that two years ago this Allan
ia grocer would never have thought of such
thing He would have taken the broilers as they
came, regardless of their smallness, and passed
them to his customers for whatever price
the market afforded For thing, there
wasn't any Food Administration to which he
could have made his suggestion for economy, and
he would have been laughed at for suggesting
Food Administration in those piping times of peace
and prosperity and prodigal waste

In a letter from a woman in trouble occur
these words:
81 am one of those women who are fighting,
fighting for peace of mind. 1 am one of those you
spoke of the other day, in the trenches at home.
No one but God knows my suffering, and how
many nights have cried myself to sleep.
II am trying bitterly to keep up my courage,
but Oh! it is so hard, and 1 am always longing for
the night, when l Sleep and forget l even
sometimes long for DEATH for death is easy and life
is hard; but must not be coward and shirk my
duty.
Il have a very dear mother, and 1 wouldn't
tell her my troubles for the world, she has had
enough suffering in her life, dear SOUL"
And it is the last paragraph to which 1 wish to
call your attention o girls
For it is the sentiment therein expressed which
contains all too common error OF youth.
The young woman loves her mother That
love finds expression in telling her mother pleas
ant things, all about her successes her good for
tune, her hopes and happy thoughts. She does
this because she wants to make her mother happy,
doesn't want to worry her, and all that.
Which shows that she does not understand
mothers, old age.
For your troubles, child, exactly what
your mother wants to hear. It's because you do
not bring them to her that you shutting her
out of your heart. You are missing privilege and
doing her a wrong.
One of the bitterest pangs of parenthood is that
the children you have brought up will come to you
when all goes we'll, but in their hour of trial will
turn to a stranger.
This young lady has written to me- whom she
never in her life, letter which would have
been worth thousand dollars if it had been adj
dressed to her mother.
Go to your mother with your woes. Don't
imagine she will not understand She sees much

VI etbOdGst War Work.

Asserting their belief that the church that
fails in this time of crisis will have good reason
for its continuance after the war, the laymen of
the Southern Methodist Church have launched
this week great program of service for the SOL
ders in pursuance of the authority granted by
the General Conference.
Under the leadership of Bishop w. R. Lambutn
they will raise a war work fund of Sl,OOO,OOO
year for four years beginning next year, and in
the meantime will finance a very considerable pro-
gram for 1913 already mapped out by the War
Work Commission of the Church.
One of the distinguished men of Southern
Methodism, who has behind him a record of bril-
liant achievement in the foreign mission field
Bishop Lambuth well expressed the spirit prevail
ing in his great denomination when he said 1--WE
fighting the representatives of fraud force and
frightfulness. We fighting for righteousness,
liberty and Christian civilization. Democracy is
not SAT- so long German military power is loose
in the world We will fight on until we win, no
matter what it COSTS
Secretary Baker has said that spiritual rein
forcement is the greatest need of soldiers, and
this the Methodist Church will undertake to sup
ply in its far-fung program of activities. It's
War Work Commission will provide the quota of
chapains assigned to the Church; furnish chan
mel through which the entire membership can
make a contribution of money, literature and per-
sonal service; cooperate with the Y. M. c. A, the
Red Cross, the American Bible Society and other
patriotic agencies; aid the government in protect
ing the men from impurity and intemperance; and
promote a Church-wide campaign in the interest
of winning the through the preaching of pa
triotsm and aiding in all the activities of the
government.
This is program that links religion with pa
trotsm. 1t is a program that will make every
soldier going out from a Methodist home, and
everyone of other denominations with whom it
comes in contact, feel that he is lighting for holy
cause. 1t is a program that will abundantly ex-
press the faith of Methodism in actual accomplish
ment. 1t is a program that will make thousands
of soldiers friends of Christ and fit them Chris
tian leadership in their communities when they re-
turn to civil life.

all that it ever hopes be at stake Prussian-
lied Germany is bent upon destroying our happi-
and freedom along with that of the rest OF the
world. We know for a certainty that nothing
will stay her criminal course break her crimi-
nal ambition except defeat the battlefed-de-
cisive, overwhelming defeat. The uppermost
thought of every true American therefore, will be
of the winning of the and of his own contribu-
tion to that heroic end.
We must win so decisively, overwhelmingly
as to Illustrate Germany's designs in Russia and in
the Near East as well in Western Europe; for
to leave her dominant in those regions would be as
dangerous as leave her in possession of Belgium
and Northern France--dangerous alike to America
and to Europe. Retaining the land and treasure
she has seized in Russia and in the Balkans, to-
gether with her control over Turkey, Germany
would be incomparably powerful than be-
fore She would be powerful indeed that no
future alliance of free nations could stay her from
further and unlimited ACKNOWLEDGMENT save at
cost more terrible than that of the present
war. She could amply afford to give up Belgium
and Alsace-Lorrane itself in return for free
hand in Russia. What greater vantage ground for
its scheme of world dominion could Prussianism
wish than Russia's inexhaustible resources? With
those vast treasures to draw from and with
elusive highway from the North Sea, straight
through middle Europe, to the Persian Gulf,
militaristic Germany would be emboldened to in
wade all seas and all lands. And with anything
like the preparation which she put behind 1914,
she would have much fairer hopes of success. AS
a matter of essential strategy, therefore, we'll
of high honor, the United States dare not pursue
a purpose less liberal less resolute than
that proclaimed by President Wilson when he said,
so far as I am concerned intend 20 stand by
Russia as we'll as by France"
t is this necessity and this obligation that re-
move all likelihood of Germany's making any sort
of just peace until she is Overwhelmingly beaten
on the battlefield How profoundly significant are
overtures Il can say with clear conscience that
have tested those ntimations and have found them
insincere Every proposal with regard to con-
yention in the West. involves reservation with
regard to the East" There doubtless will be
newed intimations of this character when the Hin
denburg offensive has spent itself But not until
Germany lays upon the table unconditional sur
render of her brutal militarism and her criminaly
won spoils will Americas terms, which have been
on the table from the beginning, be met. And the
only point at which Hohenzollern Germany will
subscribe that of justice will be at the
point of incontestable defeat. Hence the wisdom
of President wilson's declaration that
should think and plan in terms of unlimited

Seventeen Million Bond Buyers

The fact that seventeen million persons bought
Liberty Bonds of the third issue shows that this
loan sold outright, not underwritten. Consid-
cred merely a piece of business, this is a won
derfuIly cheering record and is filled with goodly
surance for the future AS the Baltimore Sun apt
" remarks: when the bulk of the bonds are
purchased by the large financial institutions it
means that their capacity to take of the nan-
cial needs of their ordinary customers is CORES
pondingly reduced When the people largely finance
the war out of their savings this burden is removed
from the financial institutions, and the country as
a whole benefits" Still significant and
cheering is the fact that seventeen million Liberty
Bond buyers means seventeen million savers and,
so, an unexamped incentive to thrift, that sturdy
virtue of which Amerc- is vitality in need. Seven
teen million Liberty Bond buyers means, more
over, fresh impetus to practical patriotism. On
this point, however, the American people will show
their spirit more pronouncedly in the Red Cross
campaign now under way. A Liberty Bond repre-
sents patriotism four and a quarter per cent in
terest. A Red Cross contribution represents pa
triotism pure and unalloyed.

The fact of the matter is that poverty ana as

Don't be afraid of shocking her. She may be
shocked, but to her it will be gladness just to
know you dared tell her.
Don't be afraid of causing her pain and
iety Mothers don't dread those things. What
they dread is that the child will not share the
secret pang.
That is mothers pain, the pain of participant
ing in the child's SORROW and it is pain that
is sweeter than any joy.
You cannot make your mother happy by wait
ing upon her, or feeding her sugar plums, or
shielding her. That is children's happiness
Mothers happiness is the privilege Of weeping
when you weep, watching with you, being your
partner in cross and thorns.
Go to her. Tell her all. Wound her Cause
