AMERICA'S CAUSE FOR WAR j
"The new German policy swept
every restriction aside. Vessels
of every kind, whatever their flag,
their character, their cargo, their'
destination, their errand, have j
been ruthlessly sent to the bottom
without warning and without
thought of help or mercy for those
on board, the vessels of friendly
neuirals along with those of bellig
erents, tven nospnat snips anu

bereaved and stricken people of

marks of identiiy, have been sunk
wuh ihe same reckless lack of
compassion or oF principle. ' f
"I am not now thinking of the
loss of the property involved, im
mense and serious as that is, but
only of die wanton and w holesale
destruction of the lives of noncom
batants, men, women and chil
dren, engaged in pursuits which
have always, even in the darkest
periods of modern history, been
deemed innocent and legitimate.
Properly can be paid for; ihe lives
of peaceful and innocent people
cannot be. The present German
suhinuine warfaie against com
merce is a w arlare against man

CHECKIM1 SUBMARINES.,
fcvidenees accumulated show
lhal ihe German submarines have
not only reached but passed the
high waier mark of their destruc
liveness. The Navy Department's
announcement thai new devices
applied through co-operaiion of
British and American forces in
European waters have had percep
tible effect on submarine warfare
merely confirms a conviction that
ihe last card of ihe German gov
ernment has been played in vain.
The convoy sysiem, pui into ef
fect recently has been effectual in
preventing any injury lo American
naval vessels and iransrnns. The
' 'depth charge" which ihe British
introduced some nine ago is an
other method which has been used
in dealing wuh the U hoais. Of
ficials have every reason to be en-
couraged over the submarine situ
ation, especially as preparations
aie now under way for newer and
even more effective methods.
As the shipping board enlarges
its control of merchant shipping
and all owners adopt ihe new pro
iccuve devices, the desiructiveness
of ihe submarine will be still fur
ther minimized. There has never
been any offensive weapon that
has not been followed by a defen
sive weapon almost, it noi quite,
as effective. The submarine is no
exception, as the experience of
the allies and the Uniied States
now leaches.
Submarines for a considerable
time had unhampered sway on the
high seas, but even under such
conditions they failed to fulfill the
predictions made fur them by the
German government, which boast
ed of its ability to bring the allies
to their knees within two months.
The two months lung since have
passed, but commerce is flowing
from the United Stales to Europe
with almost as much freedom as
before unrestricted submarine w ar
fare was begun. The submarine
menace is being checked and the
last hope of the German govern
ment has failed. Washington

A crying shame it is that it takes
such an emergency as a great war
to drive us lo the realization that
an appalling number of our young
men are not physically able to cope
in battle wiih an enemy. If had
teeth, hookworm disease, malaria,
constipation, adenoids, detective
eyes, ears, underweight and other
equally unnecessary, sometimes
disgraceful and nearly always easi
ly preventable, defects ean so se
riously affect our young manhood,
how about our young womanhood?
How about our middle-aged men
and women, those thai should be
the real factors in ihe world's
work? I rt' put in end to such
inefficiency. Medical inspection
of schools is the immediate step in
providing for ihe future, while pe
riodic medical examinations for
adults and sanitation and public
health work offer much hope for
us of loday.

I feel il the duly I owe lo you all
io express lo you my appreciation
of the good your Remedy has done
forme and my family. My child was
tearfully attlieteil with what we
concluded was Blood Poison. As
a Isst resort one of my neighbors
suggested thai we try Mrs. Joe
Person's Remedy. We sent to
the drug store for a bottle of it and
the effect was magical. One bottle
of the Remedy and three of the
Wash cured the child, and I have
no hesitancy in saying that we
consider Mrs. Joe Person's Rem
edy the best blood medicine on the
market.
