Newspaper Page TextPace Six? EUGENE DAILY GUABD all ft YOUTH IUERS be Spirit of '76 and '61 Is Just as Strong in American Young Men Says Secretary Daniels of Navy. Secretary Daniels in an address at the Southern Society banquet in New Tork, December 12, said in part: A few months ago there was a prev alent notion that American manhood had become soft and was dominated by materialism. We saw the young man immersed in business and pleasure, and jwe asked ourselves, "Is the youth of our day made of the same stuff as the men .of '76 and of the sixties?" There were many voices telling us of moral flabbi ness, physical unfitness, and spiritual jdeatb. They said the only motto of today with American young men is "Get rich And have a good time." And there was a measure of truth in this diagnosis, but the grim business of war haB already tuught us that we had accepted the life of the few as typical when it was the (exception. Perhaps we would hnve al ways accepted this unfavorable view of 'the youth of our day, and thus wronged ,them, if there had not come a time of testing. But the time came to measure manhood. Is it soft or is it hard? Is it of the stern stuff that gave us Nathan Hale and Paul Revere? Or is it deleted Americanism that lacks virility and read iness to die for principle? War Har Brought Answer. War has given the answer. The ac- cepted misconception of the youth of to day has been removed amid the perils of the deep and in the liquid Pre of the tranches, where American youths have freely given their lives. American valor in 1017 is seen as well iu the canton ments and training stations and on the ships where a trillion lien arc uder oing the rigorous trjioinp to f t'irm Ito do the big task they will f.-'complih. Our sorrow over our earliest sacrifices in this war Is assnajred oy oar pride that America possesses 10,000,000 valorous and chivalrous young ratn and more, ready to fight anitl thj world is freed of the monster of Military Autocracy which knows no law except "Let him take who has the power And let him ke who can." .tot a War of Hate. We have entered in to this war with no passion, no envy, no prejudices, no desire for anything that belongs to any other man or nation. No shibboleth of ,hate, or semblance i it, has been rais ed. When our ships have been ruthless ly sunk and women and children have been murdered, we have highly resolved to make the aouo safe an 1 never to est crimes are made impotent to repent ll:em but in all America thine is no flame of rage, no passion for vengeance, no ha tred of the people of Germany, who have been made the instrunieuts of the bestial warfare. We have locked beyond the men under the sea, whoso piratical acts shocked civilization, and we have seen that they were the pawn? and agents of a Juggernaut which .joaip?'led them to .commit murder or to themselves face tile death squadron. A long Imposed nutv.Tntic imperialism Ihns made German soldiers efficient vas sals of vengeance. Now and then, as Iwhcn certain sailors threw their captafo overboard in the vam attempt to ave their souls from undersea slaughter of children, there has been an attempt to (revolt against the most hignly organized internal tyranny the ingenuiry of subii dited service could imposa. But in' grained submission, trainod skill in the uao of weapons of war, nml the ccttamty ,of cruel destruction by even the whisper jof protest to the enforced barbarism, 'have made the, Kaiser's war marhiue a potent thing of evil. We have son this monster destroy small states, ravage peaceful territories, and seek to inr-te the whole world to sedition and murder. But, deep as Is our determination that the world shall never be dominated by force, it is the glory of America that its voice 1b the voice of resolution and jus tice, and not of hate and vengeance. Mny we not hope, should we not pray, that no matter how gre.".t the provoca tion, the American people will ever keep out of their minds and out of their hearts any passion of hate toward those who war against the .world's justice and tho world's peace and the world's civili zation? 1 Mind you, I counsel no smooth words ,1n describing the murderous deeds con- delved by the German autocrats. I favor no qnarter for the men responsible for the world's war, though us to them our attitude should not be one of hatred. I America Pledged to Stay. We shall stay in this war nntil Ger many shall sec its war lords deposed, and we shall live to sec that capable peo ple freed from the master of militarism that haB made every home a house of mourning. To this accomplishment, bc rnuse until It is accomplished no people can be safe under their own vine and fig tree, America has pledged Its sacrod honor, ond to the pledge every man and icvery resource. nd every dollar are dedicated. again for work Tuesday morning.

By buying War Sayings Certificates the American people will contribute .tq their own success in war far more than the amount they lend to the govern ment. Every economy they practice in order to save money for this purpose will be a double benefit. By saving food they both save money to buy certificates, and they add to the supply of . food which will make good the shortage of our allies. By avoiding luxury they not only save money to help win the war, but they save labor and material which may be used in pro ducing necessary war ma terial In both v cases by reduc ing the demand for com modities of which they re duce consumption, they hold in check the rise in prices and thus increase their savings. They also reduce the cost of the war, .and, consequently, the sum which the government must borrow. First National Bank Capital and Surplus $300,000.00.

' "It has everything thnt a motion pic ture should have," said one man, "and none of the things that a motion picture should not hare. It has snap, dash, fire, romance, youth, thrills, excitement, big scenes and Bplendid actors. It is staged on n lavish scale. It has been Buperbly directed and the photography 1b perfect. This is a wonderful production." This opinion is being echoed by the hundreds of thousands of people in nil parts of the country who nro seeing this memorable production. They are being Immensely entertained by the consist ently, intense and wholly pleasing story; they are being amazed by the magnitude and Immensity of the big scenes; they are being thrilled by the exciting train wreck and the automobile wreck and the exciting horse race at Saratoga, and they are leaving the theatres after seeing "The Whip," declaring thnt it is the big gest motion picture in the world. The people of this city will hovo the opportunity of adding their choruB of ap proval to the general verdict of all peo ple who like a good entertainment, for "The Whip" is coming here.
