Americans out of work and industrial chaos here.
 They know loo. that the surcst, most effective measure to bring that about will be to hamsuing the Amer ican government financially. With no money available, all the after-the~W plans that have been made will come to naught They will fail if they are not financed and the undertakings are far too great for private capital how ever patriotic. to be able to handle them.
 Loyal Americans who have seen their sons and brothers, fathers. and husbands go across the seas to crush the Prussian monster, who have sent their dollars after their fighting men, will be i'll no humOr to palter with these emissaries. They will not hes itate to support the Fifth loan with all that they can afford in order to make sure that the old Germanism will never be able to lift it's head again

 So long as Belgian and French ci- ties could pay, they were forced tC turn over contributions to the Hun Every possible resource was exhaust ed
 Just as long as there was q church or cathedral in cannon shot the German guns slammed shells in to them.
 So long as the U-boats could keep the sea they continued to torpedo passenger vessels as quickly as they would warship. Women and chil- dren made no difference to the Hun And as long as there was any meth cd or spreading terror among their opponents, soldiers or innocent civi- lian population, the German used it without cOmpunction. Do you recall the 15-mile un that killed women and children in the churches of Paris.
 But when the war was lost, when there was no more hope, when there was panic in the army and rioting at home, then the German quit The reddened hands went up. They came begging for mercy.
 But as soon as the first shock of defeat was over, all over the world Germans began working to make the best of bad peace for them Adroit- ly and snbtly they began pleading the cause of Germany with every plausi- ble argument that could be offered
 False Reports Magnified.
 Every kind of possible misconduct of British, or French, or Italian is distorted and magnified. Every thing that shows anything German, or any thing in Germany ill a pleasant light is adroitly brought forward and made the most of.
 But above all things the desire of these prOpagandists~ is to get the minds of the American people off the war and off everything that is con- nected with the war. They are anX- ious to know that German factories are again busy turning out great quantities of goods to undersell allied firms, to rob allied workmen of goods wages and better opportunities. They are anxious to see German ships back on the seas, grabbing at the carrying of the trade of the world They are anxious to see American shipping sink back to it's old pre-war position, giving the freighters of Hunland a chance. They would like to see American industry slowed down,

 Your butcher if he is up-to-date, knows how to bone and roll shoulder of lamb or mutton so that it may he cut into Saratoga chops or made into a roast of unusual sweetness.
 Breeders of sheep have paid more attention tn raising q better favored meat in the last few years, and thelr efforts show clearly in the resulting product.
 Some objectors to lamb and nut ton say that they cannot eat il be- cause of the "woolly taste" and that they know of no way to remove il. That is merely case of pulling the wool over yOHr own eyes. If the fell. or toUgh outer membrane that covers the meat, is removed, there will be no "WoOlV taste"
 You are taking no chances when you order lamb The healthfulness and strength building qualities of this meat have long been recognized by physicians. who have prescribed it's extensive use in the diet of con yalcScents.
