War is not only a matter of bullets and bayonets.
1t is a matter of psychology. The most important
thing is the attitude of the people.
The Kaiser knows this. He knows that if he can
undermine the moral fiber of the American people
by destroying their confidence it will sap the
German victory.
That is why his secret agents are flooding the
country with false rumors and malicious lies, cir
culated as facts, discrediting the administrators
conduct of the war, the Red Cross, the care
and conduct of our troops, the condition of our
cantonments, etc.-all tending to create distrust
and discomfort among our people and discourage
those working for our country.
But the Kaiser can't speak through his spies
people would be suspicious. So he speaks through
the thoughtless men and women who listen to and
pass on every disquieting rumor they hear with
out stopping to inquire if it has any foundation in
fact.

and unfortunately are given the widest circulation
by Americans who do not realize that they are
aiding our enemies. They gain credence from the
fact that their purpose is not plain. They have
no German color to betray them. They begin as
malicious lies, progress as gossip and end as author
itative charges so widely believed that official
denial itself can hardly discredit them.
Every time you pass on, or even listen to, one of
these base falsehoods you are working serious
harm to the cause for which our boys are giving
their lives.
Patriotic Americans, whenever you hear a man
finding fault with the government or repeating
disquieting runors, walk right up to him and ask:
"How do you know" That question will make
him pause, take heed, consider. 1t staeeers the
liar. 1t stops the tongue of the slanderer. It
strikes deep at the root of everything that's false.
1t is the weapon which will enable YOU to heln
muzzle the yellow dogs that are swapping at the
heels of Uncle Sam.

OPEN REFoRMAroRY MAY I.
~Or. Lena A. Beach Chosen Supsrin.
tendent Of Institution For Women.


Special to Times Republican.
Des Moines. April S0.-The state
board of control will begin the opera
ton of the new reformatory for
women at Rockwell City, Wednesday.
May 4.
DR.. Lena A. Beach, of Carroll, has
been chosen superintendent and will
begin her new duties Wednesday.
The board will transfer some twenty
two women prisoners from Anamosa
to Rockwell City within day or so.
Accommodations are now ready for
about sixty wards. A short time later
about fifty more persons.
The plan at the new reformatory is
to house the women in cottages. This
divides the women into smaller groups
and affords more Of the atmosphere
and opportunities of home than IS
possible when they are all kept in one
big institution. The cottages are so
arranged that they are more or less
secluded, no one of them being di-
rectly in the view of the other. They
have gardens where the women can
grow sufficient vegetables for their
own cottages and probably have con-
siderable to spare.
Two of the cottages are practically
completed AMI others will be finished
during the summer. the school build
ing. which is three stories, is practi-
cally completed. The upper floor OF
this building may be finished into
dormitories and used for living quar-
tiers for the women until all of the
room is needed for school purposes
