'Clown Quince' to Kaiser
The following was taken from a
newspaper published in France
aod sent to Nevada relatives by a
Nevada doughboy, who is now
fighting in France:
"On the run, Somewhere in
France, al the time.
Dear Papa:
I am writing on der run as der
prave und glorious soldiers under
my command have not seen der
Rhine for so lond dot dey have
started hack dot vey, und of course
I am going mit dem. Oh, papa,
der has been some offel tings hap
pened in France. First, I started
in my big offensive, which was to
crush der fool Americans, but dey
know so luttle aboudt military
(laotics dat dey vill not be crush
joost like I want dom. I sent my
men in der h'g vaves, and ven dry
t;ot lo (te Aiinl icuiis dev all by HI L
"Boo" as loudt as dey could hol.er
Veil, according to vut you haf
alvays saidt de Americans should
haf turnt and run like blazes.
But vat you tink? Dem fool
Amerieaus don't know any ting
about var, und instead of running
de odder vay, dey cams right
toward us. Some of dem vas sing
i tig about 'Ve von't come bock till
it's over, over dere,' or some odder
foolish ting, und some of dem vere
lading like fools. Dey are so
ignorant But dey are awful rwk

don't like der dirty Marn river
anyhow. Und oh papa, der A:neri
cans use such offel lunguage. Dey
know noddings of kultur und say
such offel dings right before us.
Und dey talk blasphemy, too. Vai
you (ink dey said right in front of
my face? Von big husky man
from a place dey cull Missouri, he
suid oh pnpa, I hate to tell you
yat on offel ting lie saidt but 1
can.t help it; ho said, ''To hell
with the kaisei !'' Did you ever
hear any ting so offt'l t I didn't
link anybody vould say such a
ting. It made me so mailt. 1
vouldn't stand und hear such on
off el ting so ! hurried und turned
around und run mit der hove,
Vas I light? Nat? Und, oh papa,
you know dem breastplates vat
you sent us can yjuu gel some to
put on our hacks? You know we
are going de odder vay, now, und
der breastplates are no good, for
lor lie cowardly Americans are
shooting us light in der back.
Some of der hoys took off dcir
breastplates and put dtin on be
liindt, but der Americans are
playing "Der Starspangied Ban

Can't you help us? You remember
in your speech you saidt nothing
could stand before the brave Ger

belief dese ignorant Americans

The Home Service
The American Red Cross, the
"greatest mother in the world" is
trying to justifiy the trust placed
in her. From the worthy begin
ning of succoring the wouuded and
dying of the battlefield, thM asso
ciation, which now numbers the
greatest membership of any organ
ization ever known, has during
the present upheaval, or the
nations, expanded her usefulness
to cover all manner of suffering,
whether of tue battlefield, of civil
ized life, or more recently throi gh
its newly inaugerated department,
the Home Service Section, the
finer, more subtile and undmi in
ing suffering of lowered morale of
the families and friends of soldiers
Those brave at home who with
aching hears and lessening energy
must meet new and surpii-hg
conditions of life brought about by
changing world conditions, some
times find themselves facing situa
tions which 110 person's experience
helps to meet, and in the maise of
affairs they know not where to
turn for help.
This has been recognized as a
serious state 01 annus, wincn
needs to be met, and in organizing
the Home Service Section the Red
Cross Society is trying to put its
immense facilitees for securing
knowledge and help at the dispos
al of those in need of it, And any
one who is in need whethur of
financial assistance, or work, or
some particular knowledge that
does not come th.ough the regular
channels, or just a quiet unburden
ing of an over loaded heart, if you
are in need of any of these the
Hume Service Committee is ready
to render assistance. Not that
to . mi-hIImi iwmg or nil puuei'
full. Far from it. But t hoy a: e
tue medium for reaching the im
mense resources of this great'
organization, which has its hand
011 the puke and its sympathetic
ear to the throbing heart of the
world. It is backed by our piesi
1 .
aent and me great men 01 our
own nation, and bowed down to
by the kings of the world.
A Word Aboat the Flag
'J here has been so much said
about an Ame.ican's duly during
these trying times and so many
big issues to meet that the little
cmirtesies due our national Flag
have nftimes been neglected. Do
you remember when (he United
States llrst entered the war how
every home and place of business
brought forth the colors? There
were flags of all t,ues every placo.
It showed that the people were
wide awake, that they love their
flag, that it hold a meaning for
them and they were proud of .it.
Where are your flags today?
(lone? Yes. Frayed by the wind,
worn and discarded and they have
not been replaced. Are you loos,
ing interest in the flag? Areu"t
you proud of it any more? Citn
you expect the boys over there 10
carry our colors to Berlin when
you tiout eyen display them l
lome? Think about it. Talk
about it. Do something.

My name will appear on the
official ballot Navember 5tb, at
an independent candidate for State
Senator from the Sixteenth Sena
torial District.
The great things that are pip
ping us at this time make the
differences which hitherto havt
separated the voters into political
parties seem trival and inconre
quential. For all such old condi
tions there is no place now and by
this time should have passed en
tirely out of our consideration.
How small they seem when the
Nation is battling for the prim
pies on which it was establithn
Only this great present huBinesi-
really counts with us now.
There is a tremendous oblig
turn resting upon us to put 0111
... L. A I - ! . .1 .
nuuia weigni into me scale in
behalf of the Government and ihf
civilization to which we aie in
debted for all we have and all we
are. The immediate task of win
uing the war ia so great am!
absorbing that it is entitled to our
whole attention, leaving other
matters to receive later considei.t
tiou. Civilization is being batteied
out of recognition wherever tb
German armies and boats reach
and thia greatest conflict of man
kind must be fought to a righteous
conclusion- at all costs. The con
quest of Piuesianism is a grim
business that must be put through
to the end, however long and
bitter the way, and for this pur
pose the uncoiiquored spirit of a
free people is getting back of our
government with all they have,
ready at the call.
Not only the resources of the
individual, but also the resources
of the State of Oregon should be
conserved and placed at the dispo
sition of the Government for the
winning of the war and such legis
lation as will effectuate this end
should be immediately enacted.
No person should be elected to
any representative office at this
time who is not enthusiastically
loyal and who will not support
the National Administration in
prosecuting the war to a success
ful termination and iu opposing
a premature peace.
