Devitalized physique Invites pneu In the town of Sandy, Clackamas County, a German Lutheran school has been holding sessions five days in the week, teaching German in the forenoon and English in the afternoon, and running in opposition to the public schools and greatly reducing its attendance. Sandy merchants and others in Sandy who have protested against the opera tion of this enemy school in their midst, have been notified in a round-about-way that if they continue their opposition to the school they will be boycotted. This is a condition th& should not be tolerated, these hot-beds ot Hun pro- poganda should be closed forthwith and without argu ment. Patriotic reasons demand that not only these pro- poganda schools be closed, but that our own public schools should discontinue the teaching of German. The best American sentiment favors this action throughout the nation. We must not forget that our country is engaged in a struggle that demands constant vigilance and activity of the part of every loyal American. No matter what hap pens today, tomorrow, next week, or next month, the war will go on, for upon our winning it depends the whole future freedom and happiness of our children and all who monia.

If you have any doubt about this, just try to open the ventilators In a crowded street car on a cold day and see what happens to you. Nutritious food Is harder to get, for a price, than It used to be; but fresh air does not cost any more now than It did before the war.
