wasting of four years or nearly
that of war. We should have to
repay her her losses by huge in
IDENTITIES, which would put a stag
gering burden on all of US. We
would liveunder a threat, a threat
from the most brutal nation the
world has ever known. If we
bowed to that threat, and a beat
en- nation must bow, then the
very spirit of America, all we
mean by the word life as we in
terpret it, would lie murdered.
Better that we ourselves die, and
our children with US. The hope
of our fathers, the work of US all,
this nation, our individual char
acter and freedom, all ended.
The price of liberty has been
paid by this nation twice before.
To fail now-to fail now. Shall
our noble dead have died in vain,
and we bow to the oppressor? Or
shall we bring freedom fully to
earth at last, and with the sold
iers Of our great allies see the
dawn of a tomorrow whose
foundations were laid in York
town and Appomattox, by men
whose blood runs in our veins,
whose hopes and beliefs are our
own?
Think of this when you are
asked to buy Liberty Bond and
Thriftstamps. -Hildegarde Haw-

There is little doubt but that
the Liberty Loan will be sub.
scribed- but there is a big doubt,
Mr.. Citizen of moderate means,
that when the subscription is
over you will have done your
share. That some one else was
forced to take more than his
share to cover your failure to
prove worthy of your country, is
hardly cause for you to con.
graduate yourself.

ia, which was destroyed by the
Turks. when the British suffered
there a disastrous reverse, in the
present world war, has been rebuilt
by the British since the town again
fell into their hands and is today q
better and cleaner town than ever
before. For many months Kut was
deserted by even its native popula-
ton, but in the last six months the
population has been so restored that
it is nearly as great as it was before
the war. When the Turks were be-
sieging the British garrison, they
dug trenches right up to and all
round the cemetery, but they re-
spected the graves--an act of hu-
manity and respect for the dead
which never would have occurred
to the Germans. Nearly 1900 Brit
ish soldiers died from disease and
