good OF other peoples, the 100000 Germans must labor to the same
end OF the general restoration of the world. They must work not only
ia order to live, but to help in making good the immense losses caused
by war and to pay for some of the damage they have done. They are
needed as part of the world machinery of production, and without
their full assistance il will be crippled and other nations must suffer.
The whole world is under the same penalty of engaging in the task Of
production to the top of its powers. unless it is prepared to sink back

The newspapers carried a statement the
other day to the effect that thousands OF
fish were dying in Lake Erie. One report
was to the effect that they were floating
in such numbers as to make the air foul
for miles around the lake; but we have
seen nothing further upon the subject,
and the dispatches did not say what kind
of fish were dying or whether there were
more than one variety.
But there isn't anything strange about
II. Epidemics break out among the fish
and even among the wild birds and ami
