| one square foot Of soil that was moi
a part OF shell crater. What had
once been the richest soil of the
world is today but waste, made so
by the shells that fell upon it be-
cause Germany sought world domino
ton. This soil has been destroyed by
countless thousands of sheAs railing
actually one upon another, each dig
ging deeper into the earth until the
very subsoil has been turned over and
the land made worthless for cultiva-
ton for years to come, If indeed 1t can
ever be reclaimed.
Unexploded Shells Buris. Soil.
There lie today on the surface Of
this land many thousands of unex-
ploded shells, and there are buried In
the soil many, many thousands more.
each one of them a menace to any
farmer who attempts to put pillow
into the soil in an effort to reclaim it.
And this land is destroyed, as the
homes were destroyed, because of Ger
man ambition, of German cruelty, OF
German lust, of German wantonness
and German brutality.
Who is to pay for 1t? Who Is to
risk destruction that it MY again be
put into condition for cultivation, that
it may serve the purposes of the hui
man race? Shall the peaceful Belgian
peasants, who had no part in the start
ing of this conflict, suffer their loss
without compensation? Shall these
peasants who have endured more than
four long years Of homeless agonies,
who have suffered not alone the loss
of homes and land but the loss OF
relatives and friends as well, be the
ones to risk destruction In the effort
to again bring these lands back to
condition where cultivation is posi-
BILE? Shall they be blown to bits by
the bursting of these shells, hidden az
they are beneath the surface of the
ground, when the pillow strikes and ex-
plodes them? If undisturbed, those
shells continue to be a menace for
years to come, but who are to risk
their lives In removing them?

I along this long, straight road between
Ypres and Menin, they would say, a.
say, it is the German who must pay
1t is the German who must risk de
struction In the effort to put this LAND
again into condition for cultivation.
1 believe that one condition of thu
peace treaty should be that Germany
either as one nation,.or proportionately
from the several small nations that
may be formed out of the German EN-
pire, should call its military classes to
the colors each year as 1t has done In
the past; but In place of putting guns

ing them for the purposes Of war-a
war Of conquest-that 1t should put
! these men into the territories she has
devastated, to reclaim the soil and to
rebuild the villages, the towns and
cities the Huns have destroyed. Let
these Germans, under guard Of Bel
gian troops, take the risk of destruc-
ton; let them guide the pillow that may
strike the unexploded shell, and let
Germany pay them the meager wagon
Of the German soldier while they are
doing this
Should Pay and Pay and Pay.
That would be the nearest thing to
an accounting that Germany can rem
der to the world, but she should pay
all that 1t Is humanity possible for a
people to pay who have so ruthlessly
despoiled the world. Her people should
pay, and pay, and pay. until they have
learned beyond the shadow Of doubt
that war for the purpose Of conquest,
for the purpose Of loot, for the grat-
fcation Of selfish ambitions, is the
most Improbable business they could
possibly engage In.
And remember that the devastation
to be seen along the road from Ypres
to Menin Is but an example Of all the
terrible destruction to be found
Belgium and northern |
France and Serbia and other countries |
that have been overrun By the con-
armies Of the Boche.
And remember too, that 1t is not alone
he devastation that Is to be paid for.

farms but in closely built villages OF
from 100 to 500 people each.
Devastation Is Complete.
It Is hard to realize today that these
villages ever existed, that the land
along this long, straight road was ever
cultivated, ever produced foodstuffs
for a people. In fact, 1t is hard to
realize today that this was ever an In
habited country.
OF these peaceful villages, the living
places of these farm people, there Is
no trace left. There are not even piles
OF debris, Of broken brick and stone
and lumber, to mark the spots where
they stood. There is no single thing
BY which the returning peasants. wear

even one small object that would tell
them Of the homes, the only homes,

It was German ambition. German
