GERMAN PEOPLE PROTEST
No great nation in the world’s his-
tary has been called upon to accept
terms of -{t^ace so ;stem and drastic
^ were handed to the German dele
gation at Versailles by representa
tives of the Allies a few days ago.
When signed it means the end of Ger
man militarism and a guarantee that
another great war will never be visit
ed upon the civilized world.
The German people object to the
altimatum handed them, of course.
That was to be cxpected. But their
peace delegates have no other alter
native, They mush either subscribe
to tlie terms or submit to consequen
ces which will bring them face to face
'vith conditions morflr humiliating.
They are reaping what they them-
aelves have sown and have no reason
to expect any milder terms than the
victors now propose. In 1914 Ger-
inariy fully believed her armies would
prevail and here are the demands
*
Count von Bernstorf reported to
Premier Clemenceau the latter part
•f the year;
The ceding of Morocco, Algeria,
and Tunis to Germany.
yhe annexation by Germany of all
tiiat part of France following a
ilraight line from St. Valery to
C.yons. This is about one-fourth of
France, v/ith 15,000,000 inhabitants.
An ideamity of ten billion francs.
The admission of goods made in
Germany into France free of duty for
twenty-five years.

Such was the war waged against
American independence. And Am6r-
Ica, by her participation in the World
War, has about evened this score
with the German^. ’ ' i ‘ ^
But the American people are still
debtors—debtors beyond the possibil
ity of computation. NAver can we
duly appreciate the merits of Wood

tions has safely guided this couijtry

CLEAN UP AND KEEP CLEAN
A continuity of purpose and, action
is necessary in all lines of endeavor
if we would succeed. To avail our
selves of well being the first is to be
done, the second to be observed, the
more thoroughly, the better from all
standpoints. It can be stated without
fear of successful contradiction that
a large number of our ills come from
neglect of this injunction. Homes
that are neglected, bodies that are
not clean, foods that are contaminat
ed are sources of danger .as are
premises that are allowed to harbor
piles of refuse offering to any and
all malevolett germs a harbor in which
to multiply and spread by winds and
weather as for instance water chang
ed with them from one place to an
other to say nothing about the danger
from flies and other insect pests.
In our relations with each other
in our -community life no person has a
right to be in any way a menace to
his neighbors. If the person respon
sible for a lack of cleanliness were
the only sufferer it would not be so
deplorable but as stated above whole
communities are. affected by the filt®
of one person even as the useful
ness of a chain depends upon -the
strength of the individual Imks. No
persons, it matters n^t ^hat his sta
tion in life, is immune from danger
