SOME BOOST

The following DAILY Sun" boost
was received from Mosheim friend,
who has Spread it on" pretty heavy:
1.-THE Daily Sun"
'We are saying this unsolicited,
freely and with pleasure. The Daily
Sun was a financial venture that was
made by its promoter, not so much
with the hope Of pecuniary gain, as
to help in the onward progress of af-
fairs with which we are all concern
ed--to push our town and county into
the front rank of aspiring, successful
peoples.
"The paper has some promising
elements of success in its makeup
not possessed by some others. The
editor and proprietor is a practical
accomplished and successful printer,
which is great advantage in reach
ing the desired goal; not all papers
can say as much. The editor is an
able, fluent writer and knows when
hisw riting look geographically cor
rect as wei as attractive, thus making
them sell for all they are worth, both
lieterally and mechanically.
"The Daily Sun is one Of four dali
lies we read, and after four years
reading Of this war, this is the only
one of these papers that is an abso-
lutte rest to the eye and mind to read,
on account of its selection of matter
and Typographical appearance. 1t is
a bright oasis in a desert of dispatch
es, news notes and editorials. 1t
comes to US as fresh as a new-blown
rose, restful in its fragrance to
mind wearied with much study. It
comes in clean new type every even
ing, with its four pages full of the
most important happenings of the
day, and we don't have to grope
thru "a pages of chaff to get a page
Of news. The editor has done this
for us, and has done it well--and too,
we get the latest dispatches from the
war front. A friend said to us, 4
read things in The Sun that / don't
see anywhere else; where does it get
them?' Dead easy this. The United
Press report comes into his office,
giving him the news to the latest
hour. We get The Sun four hours
later in the evening than any other
paper.
$50 1t is with feeling of satisfac-
lion that we lay down the big city
daily and turn to the bright, open col
lmns Of The Sun. 1t is our duty as
citizens of Greene county to lend
helping hand to all worthy home en-
Our county must take care
If its own; no one else is going to do
t for us"

PAY THE LITTLE BOYS.

1t is necessary that subscribers in
the city pay the little carrier boys
either by the week or month. The lit
tie fellows have to collect from their
subscribers before they can get their
money. So don't put them Oft is
too much trouble to have to run af-
ter such small amount. Arrange
to pay them regularly every week and
they viii appreciate it and It will
doubtless encourage them to Be more
unctual with your paper every after
noon.

A manufacturer of German birth, who had lived in
England for fourteen years before the war; nerned
on the Isle of Man at the beginning of the war; short
time ago he notified that it had been decided to send
him back to Germany and Just before the time for his
transportation he committed suicide leaving note
in which he said he would rather be dead than live in
Germany again. That ought to be hint to our gov
eminent Take all these fellows who loud-mouth-
ed about the superiority of Germany pack them up and
send the mover there We don't need them and that win
be an easy way of getting rid Of them let it be under
stood, though, that they must never come back. We
don't need man Who has lived here had the protection
of this land made his her and yet is stupid
to think that conditions under such autOcrat the
Kaiser are to be preferred to those Of this land Of free
thought and free action.

the claims of ambition or party in the

imperiled nation? What American can
entertain or even tolerate the thought
of a divided allegiance in the face
of his passionate patriotism and OF
the inflexible resolution with which
he fought for a united nation?
Can anyone doubt where he would
stand in the crisis through which the
country is now passing if he was

NEW YORK. Feb. 12. - Ignorance

scribed in an address here today by
DR.. Hugh Bircknead, rector of Emman-
uel church. Baltimore. who had tray-
eled extensively in Europe. as a rer-
resentative of the American Red
Cross.
DIR. Birckhead said the German
agents appeared glad to talk To an
American. They told him that the
United States has been terribly de-
ceived by England and France" and
that the present policy of Germany is
not to annoy America as she is not in
earnest"
The American army raised in one
year is not efficient enough 10 cope
with the German machine of forty
years training" DR.. Birekhead said the
German agents told him. The Amer

inevitable conflict with Japan. PTesi-
