TIMELY WARNING
Department OF Justice Urges That
American Protective League Be
Kept at Highest Pitch of Active
Service-An War Activities Must
Continue.

Mr.. Fred L. Croninger, chief of
The American Protective League has
recently received communication
from the National Directors of the
League at Washington d. C. urging
him to meet and counteract the idea
that now that an arm. .stice has been
signed, the war is over and there will
be no further need for the services
of this organization. The prevalence
of such sentiment is held by the Ma
tional Directors and by the Federal
Department of Justice to involve
great danger to the Government. In
support Of the necessity of keeping
up the vigilance and work of this or
ganization, the Directors enclosed a
letter from A. B. Bielaski, chief Of the
Bureau of Investigation of the U. S.
Department of Justice, in which
speaking of the impression that the
need for the serv ces of the Ameri-
can Protective League has ended he
says in part:
Nothing could be further from the
true situation; the need for the Ameri-
can Protective League is as great now
as it has been in the past and l am
entirely satisfied that the need for
this organization VIII continue for
sometime to come entirely without
regard for the peace negotiations.
"The tremendous machines which
have been created by the Government
for the prosecution of this war, cannot
be stopped abruptly and must con-
tinue to operate for many months un-
der any circumstances.
"The necessity and Importance for
protecting from espionage the army
and property of the United States will
continue for some time to come and
the need for vigorous enforcement of
sections IL and IA of the selective Ser
vice Act and for watchfulness for
enemy propaganda and financial act
ivity will probably increase.
''To accheive the greatest success,
it is essential that every War activity
be kept at its highest pitch.
The American Protective League is
organized with the approval and op-
crates under the direction of the Unit
ed States Department of Justice, Bu-
reau of invest alton: Cooperating
with and supporting this organization
in Fulton County is the League of
American Patriots. To large ex-
tent the efficiency and continuance OF
the first named organizat on depends
upon the League in Fulton county:
Consequently the plea of the Chief of
! the Bureau of investigation appeals to
the League in Fulton county and gives
to every member reason why there
should be no let down in the work of
this League or any other war work or
| ganization. We must finish what
has been so nobly begun and keep
the men cover there" who have done
so much, sustained and supported and
protected until they have fully com
pleted their great and glorious task.

When the Engine Stalls on
Dead Mans Curve!

THEY climb aboard their loaded
truck at SHUTDOWN, fifteen miles
behind the lines. They rumble
through the winding streets, out on the
white road that leads to Germany
The man at the wheel used to be a
broker in Philadelphia. Beside him sits
an accountant from Chicago. A news

murmurs the accountant from Chicago.
And don't forget" replies the Phila-

The packing cases creak and groan,
the truck plods on-straight toward that
hanging menace.
They reach another village-where
heaps of stone stand under crumpled
walls.
Then up they 60, through the strange
silence broken only when a great pro-
jectile inscribes its arc of sound far
overhead.
They reach a turn. They take it.
They face heavy incline. For half
a mile it stretches and they know the
Germans have the range of every inch

the big Boches' guns are fired. This

The three men on the truck bring up
their gas masks to the alert. settle their

Then it slackens off. The driver grabs

World Given Warning.


Yet the world was warned by some
far-sighted men that the Emperor
would one day bring catastrophe up
on the nations. These men saw in
him then and see in him now as
mad inventor given in his youth the
most dangerous of all toys his army
and navy
They were his playthings. He de-
veloped them throughout the years
to the point where he had to put
them to a test. Like a crazed in
ventor, he feared the end of his
reign would find his inventions UNI
tried; so grasped the first opportunity
to wage world war.
Meantime the German war party
grew with William as its head, and
the scheme Of world dominion await
ed the hour to begin its attainment.
1t came with the assassination of the
Austrian Archduke. Francis Ferdi-
nand, and his wife at Sarajevo.

Athletic Instructor
of CrOWn Prince Leads
Yanks Against Pupil

Brainerd, Mimi, Nov. 30.-Jim-
my Lightbody, who won many a
long distance race for the Univer-
sity of Chicago, and who tried to
make an athlete of the German
crown prince, was on the job in
France when the Germans captitu-
lated, serving as lieutenant with
the American forces.
Mrs. Katherine Lightbody of
Chicago, mother of the noted ath-
lete, who has been visiting with
friends at Gilbert lake, near hear,
received a letter from her son
written late in October. He re-
lated his experiences at the front
and assured her that "the war
would end SOON"
Lightbody is married and has
two children. When war was de-
clared he arranged his business
affairs as quickly as possible and
entered the officers training camp
at Fort Sheridan. After he won
his commission, he was sent to
Camp Grant where he instructed
soldiers in German.
After Lightbody was graduated
from the University of Chicago,
he took up post graduate work at
the University of Berlin. His dth-
letic prowess attracted the atten-
ton of the imperial family, and
Lightbody had the crown prince
and other sons of the kaiser in his
athletic classes.

Former Omaha Man,
J. B. Eagan, Writes
Book Now Published

A former Omaha man, Joseph
Burke Eagan, has written a story
Of the great outdoors, The Beaten
PATH" which has been printed in
book form and bids fair to be one
of the most popular of the new
books of the year.
The author was graduated from
Creighton university in 1899 and
later attended Harvard, where he
graduated in 1904. His mother, Mrs.
Josephine Z. Carroll, to whom the
book is dedicated, was formerly po-
lice matron in Omaha.
The book is for those who love
romance and the freedom of the
open places. The plot is daring and
is full of thrilling episodes. 1t is
a strong, clean, virile story of love
and adventure.
The plot is strengthened by the eS-
quisite style of the author who, at
times, is almost poetic in describ-
ing the beauties of the Washington
woods, "the gray, green waters OF
Ale DkdSll swirl, INC youtH OF inc
everlasting mountains in their flow;
where the air is sweet with cedar
and the giant frs, dark as the dusk,
stand, needless of the centuries, on
the purple-misted hills, there, truly,
is the land of dreams, where dwells
the spirit Of eternal youth.
Mr. Egan is also the author of
Little People of the Dust"
