AMERICAN LEGION ACTS.

The American Legion has called at
tention of all posts to an attempt by
Hun propagandists to turn the peo-
pie of the United States against the
allies. 1t is the same kind of propa
ganda that was spread broadcast in
the years between 1914 and 1917 and is
closely akin to that which many enc
my sympathizers distributed even
while we were actively engaged in
the war.
Germany has spent millions of dol
lars in the United States in the last
20 years building up hatred of Eng
land. Diabolically clever stories have
been told of England's aims to con-
troll world trade to the detriment of
the United States. of England's desire
and intention to do this and that and
the other.
And the pity OF it is that the stories
have been believed. German propa-
ganda has done it's dirty work all too
effectively. The army and navy are
full of it. You cannot go on board
a ship nor into an army camp without
some shallow rate coming around to
tell you how I'VE hate the lime-juic-
ers.''
German propaganda. German poison.
There is no duty today more urgent
and more necessary than that every
man should honestly and seriously
question every story that he hears re-
garding pernicious plots by our erst-
while allies. Hun agents have tried
day after day and week after week
to stir up strife. They have told lies,
spread rumors and distributed scandal
of every kind in an effort to set the al
lies at loggerheads.
Not succeeding any too we'll with
the British they have started telling
lies about the French. A few days
ago they complained of atrocities by
Senegalese troops in the occupied
area.
There hasn't been a black soldier in
the area since last November
The Germans were boastfully called
Huns by their own kaiser. They prov
ed themselves to be assassins of wom-
en- and murderers of children. Now
they seek by cunningness to escape
paying for their crimes. They should
be made to pay to the last pfennig for
every deed OF crime and act Of de-
struction

A DAILY MESSAGE
BY DR.. WILLIAM &. BARTON
GEORGE WASHINGTON

The Washington who energies from
the smoke Of the revolution and the
fogs of our early experiments in self
government is a noble figure.
The military genius that could make
an army out of a mob, and free his
land with a blunt sword, is not to be
despised even when compared with
the leaders Of vastly larger armies in
the subsequent decades. When we
consider the conditions under which
Washington wrought his achievement
in leading the colonial forces to vic
tory stands we'll to the front among
the military triumphs of history.
When the revolutionary war had
been fought. and the nations Of Eu
rope stood aside and waited with lit
tile faith or sympathy to see how 10
impoverished and contentious colonies
would fare in their attempt to govern
themselves and each other, and all de-
pended upon a leader whom all the
colonies could trust, and who being
trusted would prove equal to the trust
reposed in him, there was but one
man toward whom the thought Of the
American republic turned. They had
their leader, and had already tried
him, and knew he could be trusted.
The title 'The Father of His Coun-
try" was rather freely applied in Rom
an history. Almost any kind of con-
sui who cared or seemed to care for
the interests of the state was called
Pater Patriae.
The title was not held to mean that
his genius had created the country.
The title meant only that he treated
his subjects in a fatherly spirit.
But in Washington's case the title
meant much more than this. In a
true and noble sense he was, and Is,
the Father of His Country.
He won it's liberties upon the red
field of battle: and what he had won
with the sword he established in free
and durable government.
We Judge os a mans height by the
shadow which he casts. Across the
whole period of Americas history as
a nation has been flung. like the man
tie of a prophet. the shadow Of George
Washington. Heroic, dignified, incor-
ruptibIe, wise in counsel, sound in
Judgment, fearing God and fearless of
man, he stands related to American
history as no other man stands or ever
can stand.
America must continue to produce
great men. and each of them will de-
serve more honor than he gets while
he is living and quite as much as he
tardily obtains after he is dead.
But before them all, and in some
RESPECTS above them all, will tower
the majestic figure of George Wash
ington, the Father Of His Country.

unusually good-hearted boy and very

The beautiful Angora which was
Dickys first housekeeping present to
me, and which had been the cause of
our first quarrel, Dicky had carried
in a basket the Saturday before to
Lillian Underwood's home. She had
promised to care for 1t during our alb
sence, and threatened to keep 1t ever
afterward.
The meeting of the Lotus club,
which l was to address on Wednesday,

and, engrossed as / had been over the
preparations for Katie's wedding, /
had neglected to purchase a hat for
myself.
The felt sport sailor I had been
wearing, when l wore a hat at all, was

but I needed something more preten-
tious for the critical eyes of the wom
en- of the study club. Therefore, /
had told Dicky that I intended to ac-
company him into the city, and, as
always, when he had a train to catch,
he was somewhat irritable.
Hurry now" he repeated, as he
drank his second cup of coffee, and
rose from the table, I'll give you
just two minutes, for 1 won't have you
running and painting along as you
did the last time we tried to get the
train together We've got to allow
plenty of time for you to walk it in or
won't wait for you at all. You can
just take a later train"
But I'm ready now I said, smiling,
as | walked by his side into the liv-
ing room. I caught up my hat from
the table where / had laid it, fastened
it upon my head, slipped on my coat
and took up my gloves and purse.
Dicly grinned good naturedly.
That's the time you put one over
on me-, he said, "but it's a good thing

act after me-

my arm, and the angry tears that 1
had tried TO repress in her presence
came thick and fast, but I did not
weep long. l heard hasty step be-
hind me, and Dicky's tender, masterful
arms drew me to my feet, and l felt
the GOODNESS of his handkerchief dab
bling at my eyes.
"You little idiot" he said, giving me
a shake, 'if I catch you crying again
over my mothers nonsense T'll-Tn
turn you over my knee and administer
a good old fashioned spanking. You
take her too seriously; she's just a
spoiled child"
Remembering the way in which
Dicky had preferred his mothers
wishes to mine when she first came
to US 1 felt with a little grateful, sell
fish thrill that his marriage had
changed Dicky.

1t was the Monday morning before
Katie's wedding. She had stipulated
that she was to be married on Wed
nesday, because, as she explained
naively, she wanted to get washin'
ironin' all out of way before she left.
AS she was to be married early in the
morning it gave me a chance to wish
her godSpeed and 10 go to the CITY
in time to attend the history section
of the Lotus study club, before which
1 lectured every Wednesday. We were
not coming back to the house at all.
Dfckys mother had at last suIlily
agreed to go to a New York hotel. She
was feeling unusually well, and | knew
that she was secretly very glad of the
chance to live luxuriously at a metro
politan hostelry for a week. Dicky and
/ were to stay at the hotel with her
the first night and take the Hudson
river boat Thursday.
Dicky had written engaging a room
for us at the farmhouse, of which he
had spoken to me. A trunk contain
ing all the things he and I would need
had been expressed up there, so that
a small bag was all the luggage we
had to bother with.
Dicky was to escort his mother to the
city early in the forenoon, while I,
after seeing that everything was safe
" locked up for our absence, was to
follow on a later train.
The puppy Dicky had brought me
intended to trust to the care of Eddie

ADVENTURES OF
THE TWINS
By OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON

After the Bobadil Jim had jumped
to earth. Nancy and Nick turned to
say goodby to the Star.
We've had a very nice time" they
said, and thank you for helping u.s.
1t was kind of you to tell US about
the secret passage under the sleemng
pool, and we shall find it at once, just
as soon as we reach the earth"
The Star said they were certainly
welcome and that he would help them
again whenever he could. You will
have to be very careful now" he
warned. The passage is no longer
secret, for the Jim heard everything
told you. He also saw your map,
when he changed himself into white
flower. He was right here on the ia

'Oh, Well" answered Nick. bravely.
I'VE still have our box of charms and
our magic shoes. He cannot do very
much harm"
Soon the twins were floating
through the sky down toward the
earth, and there isn't any doubt, as
the little box shone in the star CLEANS
that earth children looked up and
cried. ooh, see. what lovely shooting
start"
At last, by following the beams that
the Star had sent to guide them, the
children arrived at the sleeping pool.

image OF their own Star smiling up at
