 These two facts are further reasons why every woman in Arkansas should esteem it her patriotic duty to pay her poll tax and cast her vote in the ensuing primaries, that loyal Americanism may have a strong and dependable ally in maintaining the balance of power.

logical effect. With greater frequency now comes the re- ports of mob violence against the country's enemies. The anger of the people is becom- ing aroused and they are talk ing the law into their own hands.
 This is to be deplored, but there is only one way to pre- vent it. That is for the gov ernment to recognize sedition wherever it rears it's ugly head, and crush it, with an iron hand.
 The day is past when any man in America can occupy middle or neutral ground. Ev- cry man, woman and child in the country must be elassed under one of two heads friends or enemies There is absolutely no other ground to stand upon. l am either for o1 against my government. You are either for or against your country.
 It would seem that German sympathizers would be more careful of their own safety than to uselessly arouse the anger of the entire nation. They must surely know that all thier outrages can have but one result-creating a hatred and bathing for them and thei1 kind. Surely they cannot i'm agine that their efforts will count for anything in the final result. This being the case the people appraise their action at it's true value-unreasoning loyalty to a country they have deserted and unreasoning hos tility and treachery to a coun- try and a people that have talk en them in and protected them.
 The government should force every mans hand. Every man should be compelled to come clean-or take the consequence eS.
 And the consequences should not be in the nature of 9 pink tea.

It is to the credit of our gov ernment that so far, enemy aliens have been most lenieltly dealt with, even when those aliens had given indubitable evidence that they sought to do the country harm. No drastic action has been taken against even the worst offenders, but enc and all have been humane ly dealt with. Internment for the duration of the war has been about the most severe penalty yet inflicted.
 It does seem that considera- tion should and would baget consideration, yet instances are multiplying that it does not so work. While enjoying almost perfect immunity from harm, themselves, these enemy aliens, seem bent on wreaking as much harm as possible on the country that has spared and protected them.
 All of this is now having it's

 My Dear Doctor.-I guess you think l am an awful long time getting around to my in- tended correspondence with you, but for war times. and es- pecially such as we have had for the last month, it is rather rapid work. But doctor. was very glad to get your reply to my little letter and shall write you right along as we continue to bring things to pass lover here When I wrote you last 1 was only an American soldier abroad, but now l am an old veteran, d seasoned sol  dier, made such by consider able work on the front Of course I can't tell you much about the plans that the big fellows and have formulated to deal those husky Huns so much misery that they will never try to establish another Hell on earth. But to say the least possible and do the sub ject anything like justice, Sher- man sure told the truth nearly three score years ago, when he defined war as being hell on earth.
 I've seen a little of all of it except that so far I have not seen d tank in operation or been right close where the boys went lover the top. but I've been right in the midst of the artillery,watehed air fights and air raids, have seen towns shel- led and barrages put on. Taken all together 1t is about the most wonderful sight that 1 have ever witnessed. Some of the sights can be looked at from purely a scientific stand point, such as the artillery, and you would be amazed at it too. Some are beautiful in the ex- treme, such as the different kinds of sky rockets which are shot high in the air. Some are very pitiful indeed and the il lustrations are too numerous mention, while some are sctu- ally comical. Our line of work puts us in position to see more

Sure ly they dealt the Huns some awful misery. 1 never heard such a racket in my life and my the destruction those big guns do! We have been work ing here with the French and our artillery and infantry have done some fine work.
 The French had quite a time keeping our boys out of Berlin when they'd go over the top. Our company has done fine work and has been compli- mented by the colonel. We on- ly had one man wounded and he only slightly with four small shrapnel wounds. One fellow went thru station I was in charge of with 34 wounds and still he is going to get we'll.
 We are just now ready to go back to our permanent camp for rest and vacation. Don't know how long we will be there before going back into action, this time into the ex- elusive American sector, but during the time We are in camp We get 10 day vacation and can go to any town in the area picked for our Division.
