den has been generally rated the most German of the neutral European nations, except possibly Spain.
 For long time it was feared that Sweden would join the Germanic allit ance. According to one newspaper, 55 per cent of the steel Germany has used for munitions has been furnished by Sweden.
 Denmark has never been considered over-friendly to the entente.
 The latest German move appears to be familiar one. Germany feels that she now is in position where she is so strong in the north that she need no longer cultivate the friendship of the Scandinavian countries and that they may make what ever damaging ar engagements she desires and threaten them.

Throughout the war Sweden has been troubled by the fear that Russia would take them Germany now occupies the islands temporarily, but the German flag flies over the public buildings and no one believes it will ever come down except by force. The most practical effect of German control of Finland and the Aland islands is pointed out by Count Reventlow, who says they will no longer be used as a commercial bridge between Scandinavia and Rus sia. This is bar to American as well as to the British trade with Russia.
 That the Scandinavian countries have been r-friendl-- to the entente came here as an amusing charge. Swe-

BITTER ATTACK ON
 SCANDINAVIA MADE
 BY GERMAN PAPERS
IRepubIIcan A. P. Leased Wirel

LONDON, March 10.-The newest and a novel display of German policy has come in the form of a sudden broadside of denunciation of the Scan dinavian countries by German news papers and publicists, like Count Re- ventlow of the Tages Zeitung. From the similarity Of the articles it is evil dent they are directed by one mind, which mind apparently is the German government.
 The articles accuse the Scandinavian countries substantially of being accom- plices of the entente and warn them that. therefore, they can expect no consideration from Germany. The rea- son for this policy is plain to diplomats here. Germany's dealings with Fin land thus far seem to be designed to make Finland minor German king dom. with the emperor's son, Prince Oscar, on the throne, and to make an- other Helgoland of the Aland islands.
 This scheme is a direct blow against Sweden, and in a less degree against Denmark and Norway and is in line with the German emperor's boast that the Baltic lands have been made per- manently German.

the benefit of those whom he terms SISSY boys"
You say he can't stand the army
The life is too rough for him,
Do you think he is any better,
Than other mothers Tom and Jim?
You raised him up like girl,
He doesn't smoke drink you brag,
If all the rest of the boys were like him,
What would become of our flag?
You say let the rough necks do the fighting
They to the beans and the stew,
I am classed with the rough-necks,
Who would fight for the red white and blue
You say his girl couldn't stand it,
To send him off with the rest
Don't you think she would be glad he had enlisted
When she feels the Huns hot breath her breast?
Think of the of Belgium,
Of the cruelties they had to bear,
Do you want the same thing to happen
To your innocent daughter so fair?
You thank God that the stars in Old Glory
Are not blurred by that kind of stains,
Because there ten million of rough necks
Who have red blood in their veins.
And they go to drill in bad weather
And come in with grin their face
\ While your darling sits in the parlor,
And lets another fight in his place.
Maybe we do smoke and gamble,
But we fight our forefathers did,
So go warm the milk for his BOTTLE
Thank God we don't need your kid!

 Do we want peace soon? Then, buy bonds now! The Liberty loan is only the capital Uncle Sam wants and must have. We cannot fight lover there,' but we can carry on here. Think and talk Liberty loans! It is a privilege even if somewhat of q tax at times. Are not our boys giving their lives? Secretary McAdoo has asked Shall we be more tender with our dollars than with our boysT
