FAREWELL, LITTLE OLD
APPEAL TO REASON
By Alex Van Gundy

Farewell. Little Old Appeal! You
are travelling the road your father
trod and have passed the Great Divide.
But we shall never forget you and the
great cause you fought for up to the
time that the Jews got control Of you
and murdered you. We shall live in
the hope that some great champion Of
the cause you fought for to free the
slaves will rise up in the near future
to take up the battle where you had to
surrender it; that the new champion
will carry on to victory yet before it
is too late. Farewell, old friend, fare
we'll!

MORE TERRORS OF
THE POISON PLANE

Militarists Preparing New Atrocities
Since 1916, when the first cloud Of
poison gas drifted over the British
line, the developments Of this arm OF
warfare have been prodigious. The
old bromine gas. heavier than air. cas-
/ ily isolated in pockets, and fairly cas-
( lily protected against by the improved
gasmasks in use during the last year
of the war, has now been discarded
by the war chemists. Other and more
virulent weapons are now available to
the General Stats of Europe.
1'The war chemistry of to-day"
said French scientist a few days
ago, bears the same relation to the
war chemistry Of 1914 as the ma
chine-gun does TO the old antIock.

Among these is terrible develop

of poisonous arsenical dust, that will
