GERMAN THINKING FOR
THE AMERICAN SnLDIIi

Harry Frees of Menlo, an Ameri-
can soldier in France picked up a
sample OF German propaganda which
was dropped on the American army
by fliers. 1t is just another illustra-
| ton of the kind of thinking Germany
does for other folks.
Are you brave man or a coward?
| 1t takes brave man to stand up for
! his principles. towards stand behind
leaders and die, imagining that by so
doing they become heroes. If you
think that war is hell and that you
as a citizen of the United States of
America have no business to be fight
ing in France for England you are a
coward to stay with it. II you had
the courage to face criticism you
would get out and over the top in
no time to a place where there is
some likelihood that you may see
home again What business is this
war to you anyhow?
You don't want to annex anything,
do you? You don't want to give
your life for the abstract thing thu
manity.' If you believe in human
| ity and that life is precious, save
your own life and dedicate ii to the
service of your own country and the
woman that deserves it of you. Lots
of you fellows are staying with it
because you are too cowardly to pro-
test, to assert your own wills. Your
own wills are the best judges of
what is best for you to do. Don't
ask anyone's opinion as to what you
would better do. You know best
what is the right thing to do. Do
it and save your own life. Germany
never did any harm to you, all the
newspaper tales of wrongs were
printed to inflame you to the fighting
pitch they were lies, you know you
can't believe what you read in the
papers. If you stay with the outfit
ten chances to one all you will get
out of it will be a tombstone in
France.-Guthrie Center Guthrian.

BILOXI BOY OVER
YEAR IN TRENCHES

Dr. Daniel F. Matthias was reared
in Biloxi, where his father and moth
er lived for fifteen years and until
their death. Their home was at 1899
West Howard ave-, and their family
there included their daughter, Miss
Capitola and little Daniel, who was
carrier for the Daily Herald in his
barefoot days-now a physician who
enlisted in August, 1917 in the medi-
cal corps of the army, became a cap
tain, was loaned to the British,
placed in charge of first aid hospi-
tai on the front line for 13 months in
Flanders, where he saw some stiff
fighting with the 55th Lancasters.
His division was in the stubborn and
bloody contest which ensued in
March, 1918 when the Germans tried
to cut through the steady British line
in their efforts to reach the channel
ports. In a six days fight at that
time, when America was holding her
breath for fear her own soldiers
might reach France too late to save
the day by relieving the strain on the
British, French, Belgian and Italian
armies, and the people of this coun-
try read each bulletin with fear of
the worst, DR.. Matthias division was
reduced from 20, 900 to less than half
and the little Biloxi newsbooy was
doing the mans full part, Just as Ed
ward Campbell, another Biloxi boy,
was doing a mans part with the
British on another part of the line.
AS young Campbell returned, strong
and well, so on June End, young Ma
thias returned, and has been resting
at the home of his brother, A. A. Ma
thias, in the comfortable beach home
near Gulfport.
Biloxi is proud to think of these
young men and Tom Grayson and
others, who carried the escutcheon
unstained, and reflected glory on
their boyhood home. One is now in
the war against sin, the other contin-
ues the war against disease and suf-
fering and Lieutenant Grayson is still
on guard. d
DR.. Matthias left yesterday with
Mr.. and Mrs. A. A. Matthias and their
nephew, Cadet Laverne Hansen, who
has been at the Gulf Coast Military
Academy, for family reunion at Au-
dubon. Iowa, their old home. He
brought home an automatic pistol
and other trophies which he person
ally wfested from the German foe,
and modestly tells the tale surround
ing each capture, while relatives and
friends listen with pride, and at the
same time recall the picture, in the
brave outline of the soldier, the little
carrier of the daily Herald, who de-
livered the paper through sunshine
and storm on the peninsular trOd by
D'Ibervlle's men in the long-since
days when Biloxi was very young
withiut any commission form of gov
eminent, night school and all that

BIG NAVY is NEEDED
TO HE'LL POIt,;E WORLD


II hope that our entry into the
League of Nations will not be used as
subterfuge for economy in the
navy, because no one can tell just
what part we are to play in the flu
ture domination of world peace and /
shall always contend that the polio
ing OF the seas shall never again be
left alone to England, but that we
must share equally in this honor and
expense, gun for gun, man for man,
ship for ship, with the greatest naval
power on the earth"
So said Representative Fred A.
Briten of Illinois, one of the foremost
naval authorities in congress and
chairman of the subcommittee on
affairs committee, to your correspon-
dent.
The claim that England is the un-
disputed mistress of the sea should
forever be like water that has passed
the mill. America must take her
stand, IL not mistress, at least as
the equal of any power on earth on
the seas as well as on the land.
Il was astonished when Secretary
of the Navy Daniels informed the
committee that the three-year build
ing program which was used as a big
stick TO drive the nations of the
world into the League of Nations was
to be abandoned, especially in view
OF the fact that he recently said that
ours should be incomparably the best
in the world. 1t was the idea of
naval enthusiasts that America was
to be second to no nation in build

WILL TAKE SHORT VACATION

Rev. Sonnichsen, OF Kirkman, the
gentleman who made the Memorial
Day address in this city this year,
was in Audubon Monday and while
in the city made the writer pleas
ant call. Rev. Sonnichsen is pastor
of the Baptist church in Shelby
county, but has large acquaintance
in this county. He has been doing
considerable public speaking the
past three years, in fact he was sent
to this country by the British gov
eminent when the war broke out. He
is still a young man, but he cannot
continue under the prese stress so
feels that short vacation will be
beneficial to him. He leaves soon
on six months leave to take up
studies in the University of Califor-
