Tha Liberty Bond campaign ts still on. Have you , i Tha fatalist may believe that all precaution! against Influenza, are superfluous and unnecessary, bat then wt ..... are nrt tetalists. . I ., ; Wilhslm wi:i no doubt realise that a nation of peace kying people, whom ha characterised ai money grabbers, la nr extremely dangerous antagonist to 'arouse, before this thing la oyer. After all U said, tha best preventive for influenza or any other disease is individual preparedness. Keeping one's self in fit shape will ward off tha disease when all other measures fail. " '- You can demonstrate your patriotism by buying your quota of Liberty Bonds without .making it necessary for public "hurrah gaWlng to be held, through which tha germs of influenza may ba spread. ALL .EMBRACING ACTION NEEDED. ' Tna time for compromise in the' matter of safeguard ing tho health of this community is pust.' The health authorities should take Immediate ateps to follow the dvica of national and stats authorities and close up thoM places which are known to furnish easy medium of transmittal for tha disease germs. While the recommend' ationa of tha National Council of Defense following con ftre.tca with Health Officer Mitehener are good as far as thy go, they do not go far enouggh, The Free Press fearay to have any appreciable effect upon ihe spread o( the deadly disease. ' Tha Free Press believe that nothing short of tha sug gestions 'of Dr. Rankin, secretary of the Btata Board of Health and Surgeon-General BT.ua of the United States Tubiic Health Service should) be adopted. The situation Is not different in Kinston than It la In other places and If clos ng don all public gatherings, "including church servieet and ths schools ia necessary elsewhere, it Is nec essary in Kinston, j ' , ' V iTha Free Press does ndt agree with the view taken bj Dr. Mitehener and Superintendent Curtia ats regards local schools. Nor does it sgree with the idea to make the pastors of Kinston health officers to pass upon' the ad visability of shutting up shop cr keeping open. The children in Kinston are perhaps better disciplined dur 'ing the five hours of school than on an average outside the school rrxm. But those who are not controlled at home will walk the streets after school hours and run the soma risks that they would if the schools are closed. The cVldren in Kinston are ni more prone to walk the itree'.s than those in other places. The schools have been closed elsewhere. Why should there bo a distinction The churches especially the Sunday 'Schools are hot be' for children's diseases. If there Is reason tp close any. public patherirgs, The Free Press sees none for excluding the churches. ' 1 1 The health authorities, who are vested with all legal authorty, should take the bit in their teeth and close up iu'-h public gatherings and other avenues of contagion. The hnlth of the community is In jeopardy while these fine points of discrimination are being discussed. GFUMANYH ATTITUDE MUST CHANGE While the German Chancellor prefesscs that his Gov ernment is rauly, to send representatives to treat with the Allies for peace on a basis of the terms laid down by President Wileon, he has failed to grasp the most vital phase of the whole question. He either has not caught the fact that his country has forfeited the right of Mjuality and association with the civilised peoples of the world or he declines to admit it. America, England, France and Italy which are giving their life blood un stintedly for tha preservation of all that is true and jacred in the world, cannot consent to receive on equal terms the representatives of a people who have proven theniMeives to be the most barbarous warriors, the most bestiul rapists and the most, monumental brutes of- all time. ' . While Germany may hi willing and anxious to yield til every paint involving territory and the immediate dis position of the peoples that she has made vassal, the thouicht of peace with her is repugnant to the sense f Jeceney and right until she becomes truly penitent for her crimes. Germany has dropped to the bottom of the wcial icale among the nations. Tho very ideathat she will at once bo taken hack into the confidence and fold A respectable nations is unthipkable. She must go Jvrough a period of regeneration, manifesting therein her penitence and true desire to make amends and re icem herself. The mask of hypocrisy has been torn from her Mark heart. The innermost . secrets of her" in humun desires are known. When she ia ready to con- 'es her sin and humbly begs for forgiveness, ack nowledging her unfitness as an associate of her sister nations, then and not until then can the Allies consider hearing her cry. To do so before Germany manifests vjch a contrite rpirit, the forces of righteousness would ba false to all' the rin"diple" that they profess to hold dear and to champion in forum and on battlefield. Germany is an outlaw whose heinousness knows, no bounds. Her: rulers are cut-throats and assassins and they must hi accorded the1 punishment that is justly metod to such culprits. The time for pence may be near at hand but not yet. There must be no question of Ger- many's willingness to embrace the. principles of civiltxa ttm and Christianity as represented in the cause f the Allies and of her teadiness to make those principles the v. rntiiM rnnduct. Then and not until then gUlU -.- - , will peace be the peace earnestly desired and soughtf by the world. ; " ' DR. F. FITTS t OSTSOTATI . - Uffka Ramrai BUY LIBERTY BONDS Dr. Albert D.
