THE SILENT SENTINEL
For the past two years on Deco
ration day, when the local O. A. R.
committees have gone to the ceme
tery to remove the year-old flags
from their comrade's last resile
place they have found the flags tul
been removed from several of the
mounds and put on other graves,
sometimes on the graves of little
children.
Doubtless this act of desecration
Is done by boys "for fun" and it Is
hoped that In the future there will
be no more reason for complaints of
this kind. Very sacred is the flag
and the silent sleepers beneath to
the heart of the comrade as he lov
ingly places this sacred emblem of
liberty above his last resting place,

THE MENACE OF THE BEAST
Professor Thomas, head of the de
partment of Germanic languages In
the biggest university , in . America,
has been an admirer of; Germany.
But the revelations or this war have
made hlui see a great light.
; "It Is no time now," he says, "for
us who are professors of German,
who have lived in Germany, who
have loved many things In German
life, and who sincerely wish well to
the German people it is no time for
us to sentimentalize in an elegiac
strain and urge that the Germans
are fond of flowers and Christmas
trees and folk songs. They have giv
en themselves over to the beast, and
we have got to fight the beast until
he is no longer dangerous. .
"Prusslanism Is now unmasked; It
stands for conquest, domination and
swag. : It matters not that German
statesmen now and then (take the
trouble to deny that this is so; Ger
many is not ruled by statesmen, hut
by soldiers. We cannot trust a
single word Its statesmen say, but
we can trust what its soldiers do.
And It has become as plain as a pike
staff that there will be no good life
possible on this planet for those who
lore liberty, Justice and fair play
until the menace of the beast Is done
away with."
That' Is a pretty clear statement
of the reason why we have got to
kill Germans, much as we dislike the
task. Those Germans have not only
"given themselves over to the beast."

the people or the country Into three
great classes. In the first class he
placed the soldier, who makes the
greatest sacrifice; second--the pres
ident and those about him who bear
some or the great responsibility, and
third the big class In which those
who support the government by
work or who furnish money to carry
on the government's activity. He
pointed out In a forceful way the ab
solute necessity of a true cooperation
of all three classes that the end of
the war might come as speedily as
possible.
He then called attention to the
food conservation . question and Its
Importance to both the producer and
consumer. He told of how the sec
retary of labor is organizing an In
dustrial army of boys of from 16 to
21 years. Of how an educational
campaign among the school chlldnn
is being handled and how Mr.
Hoover Is bringing 22,000,000 fam
ilies In this country to cooperate in
the conservation of food. He told
of the financing of the war through
