WILL YOU HELP A NURSE
SAVE THE LIVES OF
OF 500 SOLDIER BOYS?

Every nurse sent to the war
zone by the American Red Cross
saves the lives of 500 men, ac-
cording to American, French and
British army officers.
1t costs money to send to
France the thousands of brave
and patriotic women who volun-
teer for this heroic duty. VIII
you go into your pocket for
money with which to pay or help
to pay the expenses OF one OF
these women? If you will. you
will prove yourself an American
citizen OF the first caliber.
The American Red Cross will
start campaign May 20 TO raise
Sl00,000,000, a part of which will
be used for the expenses OF the
nursing personnel in France.
That will be the time for YOU TO
prove your American citizenship,
the time for you to help save the
lives OF the soldiery- who are
fighting for the very existence OF
humanity. When YOU subscribe
TO this fund you will be helping
to save those soldiers Just as
much as the nurse who goes

KAISER AND PEOPLE.

1--WE are not going to separate the
German people from their kaiser"
says former President Taft.
Without being sure of the precise
sense in which Mr.. Taft meant this,
we utter a hearty amen" We are
not going TO separate the German
nation from the kaiser. We are go
ing to go ahead and lick them both
together.
For long time we Americans
hugged to our souls the delusion
that there was an essential differ
ence between Wilhelm and his peo-
pie. 1t was the German government
that was running amuck in Europe
and committing intolerable offenses
against America. The German peo-
pie, we insisted, were all rigfht-
much the same sort of folk as our
own Teutonic citizens, merely
caught by chance in the war ma
chine. We persisted in this idea
even after we entered the war Some
Americans still affect to believe it.
But the majority of us can no longer
close our eyes to the fact that kaiser
and people, government and nation,
are one.
1t is the ruling class, to be sure,
that is primarily responsible. The
Hohenzollerns, the Tirpitzes, the
Hindenburgs, the Hertlings, the
puifed-up royalty, professional mill
tarists, junker statesmen and the in
dustrial leaders who have fattened
on privileges, the sleek professors
and editors who have toadied to the
classes in power. all these have per-
sistently and deliberately misled the
German nation until they have
nodded it in their own evil image.
But it's no use now delving into
causes. We face the fact that the
molding has been accomplished. and
government and people are indis-
tinguishable.
The German nation has stood for
the most criminal war in history, and
still stands for the war in its every
phase. and for the men who direct it.
The German people have rejoiced in
the crushing of Belgium and Poland,
the betrayal of Russia, the murder
Gus Zeppelin raids, the U-boat as
sassinations. the liquid fire and pois-
ON gas and all the atrocities commit
ted by their army and navy.
The German people have not only
acquiesced in these horrors. They
have committed them. This, as ev-
cry child knows, is a war of nations.
The German ruling class by itself
could not fight for one hour. The
kaiser is only a hgurehead, a sym
Dol. 1t is not Hindenburg that is
hammering the French, British and
Americans in Picardy and Flanders.
1t is not Tirpitz who is torpedoing
our ships. 1t is the German people
who are doing this work for them,
and in the name of the fatherland.
1t Is therefore the fatherland that

EAT THEM AND PLANT THEM

We are urged to eat potatoes very
industriously for a while, not only
in order to save bread or wheat, but
because the market is full OF last
years crop and the old potatoes
oughht to be disposed OF before the
new ones come out OF the ground.
In other words, we need to help the
overstocked potato planters and
dealers as well as to save wheat tor
shipment to our allies. 50 far as
possible the request ought to be
complied with and to do so will in
volve no hardship, for the white po-
tato is an excellent staple food and
can be served in many ways. Fried
potatoes, stewed potatoes, baked po-
tatoes, potatoes in soup, in hash, and
Drowned in the pan-the list is al
most endless. To eat another po-
tato instead of another slice OF bread
will neither put strain upon your
palate nor deny your body the nour-
ishment it needs or Graves, and It
will help the great cause.
But while we are patriotically eat
ing up the present stock OF potatoes,
let us see to, it that there shall be
another large stock to be eaten up at
this time next year. Let us not make
the mistake of planting a smaller
crop. Last year at this time pota-
toes were scarce enough to be worth
almost their weight in gold. Then
the country went to work and plant
ed bumper crop, thus providing
our present abundance. Many farm
ers are now likely to cut their acre
age, but let the amateur gardeners
and back-lot planters again make
sure of a good acreage OF this waltz
able and easily-grown crop; for, if
they do not, next spring may find
them once more paying sinful prices
for a staff of life. Eat all the pota-
toes you can and plant all you can,
too.

United States senatorship has
never been a stepping stone to the
presidency. Quite the contrary, and
Champ Clark may have had that in
mind when he declined appointment
to the senate by Governor Gardner
of Missouri, and may still have pres
idential aspirations. Mr.. Clark has
been twenty-five years in the house
and has never been candidate for
the senate. As speaker he ranks
in official life next to the vice
president and receives $4,000 year
more than a senator.

In the selection of Senator John
son of California as member OF
the senate committee on military
affairs to fill the vacancy in the Re
publican membership which has eX-
isted since the death of Senator
Brady OF Idaho, the Republicans
on the committee violated prece-
dent and disregarded the rule Of
seniority. The natural selection
would have been Senator Nelson OF
Minnesota, but as he is 4 supporter
OF the administration and classed as
''cuckoo' he was pushed aside for
Johnson.

The declination of Speaker Champ
Clark OF an appointment to seat
in the United States senate, recalls
the fact that in the past half CEN
tury only one speaker, John G., Car
Isle, has sought the senate, and he
was a bigger man by far as speaker
than as senator. Reed had an OPP
portunity OF going to the senate, but
refused it and Cannon never had
an ambition to be senator.

to hold an audience, if he talks on

war. The 'unchanging issue will
not be factor in any campaign un-
