TODAY'S DECLARATION WIIEX, in thn course! of ltiimaii.fvciits, it becomes nee cs.siiry.for tho. ncoiile of a democratic, libertv-lov- intr country to fid it unto death for tlx principles they hold most dear, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that tliey should declare the causes which impel them to wage a wm-or-die war. We hold these truths to he great and small arc entitled that till human beings it re endowed by their Creaor with certain inalienable rights, whether they live in Belgium, Serbia, France or travel upon the high seas in peaceful ships of commerce; that among these, are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. That to secure these rights those governments of the people, for the people and by the peo ple, have banded together in one cause and with one pur pose against that government that government winch seeks to overthrow liberty throughout the world and to crush democracy beneath the cruel heel of the autocracy of mightFor loud and many years this power of military might and inhuman greed threatened the peace of the world and tho freedom of all I peoples, but st ill we were patient and hoped that the light oi. justice and honor might break through the coak ot mili tarism into the hearts of the German people and that rea son might come to the German government. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same object, evinced a design to reduce all other na tions and peoples under absolute despotism, it became our right, it became our dutv, to fight that ruler, that govern ment, that people with all of money, food and bullets. J lie of Germany is a history of tions, all having, in direct object, t he establishment ot an absolute tryanny over till people and all nations. To prove tins, let lacts De submitted to lie has commit ted outrageous crimes against American citizens upon the high seas. lie has wilfully and needlessly murdered American wo men and children. lie has tortured and slain prisoners of war. He has violated every known law of war. He has violated every international law which stood in his course of brutalized warfare. He has enslaved the peoples of conquered territory. He has murdered non-combatants, even including little babies. He has made bonfires churches and hospitals. i Te has sunk hospital ships. He has made war upon Ited Cross workers. lie has fomented plots against the United States while this country was at peace with Germany. He has hired destructionists to destroy life and prop erty in the United States and in every other country which resisted his power lust. He has committed unforgivable crimes against the fe male population of conquered territory. " Ho lias torn up treaties and scored the. rights of hu manity. He has plunged the world into this war, and by so do ing, has become the arch-murderer- of all time and the slayer of more human beings than all other murderers of tho world. ' We, therefore, the people of the United States of America, on this Fourth of July, do solemnly publish and declare, that the United States of America will exert its last ounce of st rength, will give its last man, will spend its hist dollar, and will fight to the hist day of our existence as a free nation, to the end that our foe, the enemy of hu manity, justice and liberty, may be defeated; That the final victory may be so complete, so decisive that never again will German autocracy and militarism threaten the peace of the world nor the liberty of the inhabitants thereof. And for the support of this declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of Divine Providence, we mutually pledge each other, that we will loan of our sav ings for War Saving Stamps and Liberty loans, that we will give of our money for war taxes without complaint, that, wo will support with our dollars and our time Red Cross and all other war charities, that we will produce and conserve food as requested by the food administration, that we will not seek one penny of excess profits during the period of the war, that wo who are able, will go "over there" to the trenches of our allies, that we will utter no world which will interfere with our country's war aim, and that we will not fail to utter such words as will keep the people's fighting spirit staunch and true and firm.

It has a greater significance tlmn it ever had before. Jt tells not alone of the birth of this republic, but of the birth of a new patriotism, a more sincere devotion to our govern ment, a higher and holier respect for our flag, tho beautiful Sturs and Stripes. r, The Fourth finds tho wholo coun try united, inspired by it common cause, ready and willing to muke any sacrifice to win a victory for those high ideals, those principles on which this government was founded nearly a century mid a hnlf ngo. Those who buihled the structure builded well and It is the solemn duty of our people of A Patriotic Message (By Henry Watterson.) From the beginning the Issue was not less ours than of the countries first engaged. Each may have had ends of its own to serve. Nor were these end precisely alike. At least France to whom we awe alt we have of sovereignty and freedom and Belgium, the little David of na tions fought to resist Invasion wanton, cruel Invasion; to avert sla very savage, pitiless slavery. Yet, whatever the animating purpose whatever the selfish) Interests or England and Russia and Italy the kaiser's scheme of world conquest justified it. -in us It sanctifies it. Why should any American split hairs over the European rights and wrongs Involved when he sees 'before him grim and ghastly the mailed figure of Absolu tism with hand uplifted to strike Co lumbia where these three years she has stood pleading for justice, peace, and mercy? God of the heart's hope and home forbid! ' "War, horrible as war is -"hell," as a great -warrior said It was is not without its compensations. "No man has more than one time to die. In bringing the realization of death nearer to us war throws a new light upon life. The soldier . Is a picked man. Whether he be a soldier in arms or a soldier of the cross, his Keep An l-xlllorbil by a Woman. Keeping up the corners Is a wom an's Job. ,. In war times It is especially , her Job to keep up the corners of her Hps in a smile! The eyes are tho windows of the soul; the Hps are the door-nlate of the disposition. Mp-corners that turn upward speak tho eternal "Wbleome" of a frequent smile and a happy heart. Lip-corners that turn downward whisper a warning, "No admittance. Bewaro the dog." Wise young men seeking a wife are the mou who give the lips of their lady loves a good hard look- before they kiss, or ask an answer to the question of love. The time to look at a -woman's lips Is when she doesn't know you are looking. Any woman's Hps will curve upward in a smile when she is con scious of inspection. The toll-tale corners must be watched -when the mouth fs in erpose and the owner thinks herself unobserved. The years that bring the girl to womanhood have set In tho corners ot her lips the record of her smiles and gentleness or of her frowns, pouts, obstinacy, and melancholy. lie who runs may read the signs. And now, in war times, Hps which always held the sweet upward curve of smiles must guard It carefully, lest the heartache and the sad thoughts that follow absent lovers, sons, brothers, and friends, hnii erase the beauty and courage our sol diers remember. And those whose fretful thoughts hare been recorded in downward curves must start a new roeord, and In tho beauty ot self-forgetfulness and tho pride and glory or servtce, must "turn the cor ner" toward smiles. There Is one supreme law of beau ty and charm every woman should learn by tho time she Is sixteen, and remember every day thereafter: All men hate tears and love smlles;there is no beauty in a mouth which does not smile. Mouth corners aro like a traffic policeman's signal to men who have eyes and use them. I.lps that turn upward signal "Go ahead!"
