The worst is now known about flood

Similar catastrophies occur in vari-
Gus parts of the world at regular in
tervals.
At first the community suffering
the disaster is stunned and feels help
less
This feeling lasts but short time
as the human mind is ever active and
seeking ways to remedy an urbear-
able condition.
The earthquake and fire which left
San Francisco a waste of ashes for
miles, cost hundreds of lives and caus-
ed S25O,000,000 property damage only
urged its citizens on to build a great
er and better city.
The recent ravages .of storm and
flood in Colorado cities towns and
farming sections will cause the people
there to rebuild better than before.
With the reserve wealth of the great
state of Colorado behind them and
with financial assistance from outside
sources pouring in, rehabilitation of
the flood wrecked areas will progress
much more rapidly than at first seem
ed possible.
Now is no time TO be a pessirnist
The sun is still shining and the ground
will again produce. The people are
here and the wheels of industry mus,
continue to turn.
Look beyond the troubles of the day
and realize that the trials of the pres
ent are but the forerunner of greater
things to be accomplished in the flu

He FORGOT TO SAVE AMERICA
(From u letter to the Editor of the
Philadelphia Public Ledger.)

(From letter to the Editor OF tie
Philadelphia Public Ledger)
However much we may dislike Col
onel Harvey's personality, we should
admit that he told the truth Many
of your interesting letter writers in
sist that we entered the war from
pure idealism and as protest against
German methods. If that was so, why
did we not join in 1914, when we had
sufficiently autkcrtic proof that Aus
tria had deliberately started war with
Serbia and that Germany had invaded
Belgium without the slightest excuse {?
Or, again, when the Lusitaria was
sunk? The man who says that we
entered the war in defense of Belgium
and France and he rights of small
nations must admit that something is
wrong somewhere or we would not
have waited three years.
Nine times out. of ten self-preservT-
tion comes before abnega.ion. We all
knew that If Germany won her mex
ambition would be to capture the rich
est country in the world, so it was to
our self-interest to prevent that from
happening.
Some Of US still remember that this
was to be "the war to end war" and
"derHocracy against militarism."
That's what we were told. As a cold
statement of fact, today eighty cents
out of every dollHr we pay in taxes
to the Federal Government goes for
military ends. Five million dollars
q day is thus spent.
Now just for the benefit of those
Of your readers who are sure TO op-
pose these views. let me state that my
brother was killed in the artillery
service during the late unpleasant
ness, and / don't mind admitting at
sll that I would prefer to think OF
him as having fought for America
rather than the sham notion that this
was the war to end war.

patriot; in the other he was what Saki
