Soldiers Home For Holidays.
Nearly all the boys in camp from
Graham were fortunate enough to
get furloughs for a few days'dnring
tbe Christmas holidays. The follow
ing have been at home: Sergt. Cur
tis Wrike and Charley Jones and
Privates Thos. Cooper, Willard Go
ley, Ammon Moeer Cam Moser,
James Ergle, Buddie Gates, June
Perry and Gales Uradshaw of Camp
Sevier; Clifford Cooke of Ft. Cas
well; Chad. Menefee of Ambulance
Corps, Private Albert Harden and
Sergt. J. D. Kernodle, Jr., of Camp
Jackson. The time of some of them

Desperate Struggle.
Manufacturer's Record.
Former President Taft in a re
cent addrees said the war rasy last
three to five years, anil that we i
may have to raise nu arniy of 5,-
000,000 to 7,000,000 meu. Con
gressman Charles P. Caldwell of
New York, a member of the House
committee on military affairs, is
quoted in the N ew York Timee as
saying "it will be a long war and
A war to the bitter end. It may
take from 6,000,000 to 7,000,000
men from America. It will prob
ably last from five to ten yeais
longer. The price is going to be
high, but liberty is cheap at any
price."
Germany has gone to the point
.where its people know they have
the world's loathing and bat*;
they know that uothiog but vic
tory, it matters not what tbe price
they may now pay, can possibly
give tbem any vantage ground for
generations to come. The Ilohen
zollerns and the Hapsburgs and all
their crew know that defeat would
mean their own death aud the
death of their dynasties, and so
they too feel that they tatter fight
on to the last available soldier
raU>er than givo up.
Everything, therefore, in Ger
many is keyed up to carry the
struggle to the Ja*t desperate
notch, and nothing but overwhelm
ing defeat will make them yield.
We must therefore face the situa
tion of liberty or slavery, of civil
ization or barbarism, and carry
the fight to victory full and com
plete. If by tremendous prepared
ness and throwing into the strug
gle every Ounce of strength we
can shorten the straggle, so much
tbe better. Bat let us nerve out
selvee and prepare for a long and
desperate contest.
