One of the surprises of the newyear for the aged fathers and mothers, the wives and children of the registrants for the army, is to learn of the tender and du tiful support rendered these de pendents by the young men of draft ages, .Matty cannot really tear themselves away from their helpless dependents.

The ordinary linos of national development- have, been subordinated to the Inisruess of winning a victory over those principles Germany stands for. The Allies have en dured roue»i. but they are pre pared to endure everything to tree mankind from the evil that German domination would bring upon it. We are as yet untried, and therefore cannot appreciate the war weariness of some of the European nations. It * 9 to say that complete recuperation from the ejects of this war will require a century ft only requires a brief survey of the unspeakable (resolution in Belgium, Eranee, Serbia, Bo land, Armenia and Itoumani'a to understand their deep need of peace; To go on will require still more of blood and treasure from alt:— .. r Yet with all the immediate' blessings of peace held out to them by Germany and her .al lies, America and her allies spurn the offer and wisely decide to go on. Germany stands for everything that civilization and Christianity oppose. The days of the Western desperado are over. Religion and" good gov ernment had no place for them. There was no agreement to l>e had with them. The only safe thing to do wasfTo hang them to the nearest limb, or kill them with their hootaon. Occasion ally one was giveii a long term in prison.. The German ruling class is the national desperado turned loose among the national peace of the world. The spirit that inspires them must be put down fdrever. We cannot accept a GNmian peace any more than we can accept life in the same town with a man who neither fears God nor regards man. There is yet another reason why we cannot accept a German peace. This reason is well stat ed by The News and Courier in a recent editorial. “An individ ual cannot break faith habitually without payingtt penalty in the end- Neither can a nation. Germany lias broken -faith so often that it is impossible to enu merate the instances. Now, when she comes to the nations nid asks them to believe her word, she finds that they will lot accept it, that they do not rust her sincerity, that they iavo no confidence in her inten- ious to carry out any contract nto which she might enter.” — j * We have arranged for a j aerlea of six interesting articles, “War Talks, by Uncle Dan," written by Mr. Howard Gross, president of the Univer sal Military Training League, of which this is the first. They tell In a graphic way why military training if joT vsjjjpe, both to the nation and to the Individual, and our readers will find them of unusual interest. —: "WT" WAR TALKS By UNCLE DAN Number One BAPTIST CHURCH. .

V Joneses and the Greggs objected. They said the war wouldn’t come over here. Grandma Jones said: ‘They-aln’t no use to worrit, It will soon blow over.’ Well, we put the training In Just the same. You orter heard Judge Brow nell, the president of the school board, do the slackers up. He said unless we take off our coats and* go to it, Ger many may yet win, and If she does, she will take over the great British fleet as a war trophy and compel us to do what ever she wants to; that she could make us pay all the cost of the war; the kaiser could tax us as he pleased and that we couldn’t help ourselves. He could make every one- pay over a part of what he earns; that he could muke the farmers pay rent for their own farms, etc. Now, Uncle, what do you think of that?” “Well, my boy.” said Uncle Dan, “all that Judge Brownell says might easily come true and may unless we go quickly to the aid of the allies with large numbers of men nnd help them break the German line. Unless we can bent the submarines, they may pre vent* us fl-om getting enough food to ^the allies to keep them going. In that case Germany would win. As natters stand today, our greatest need is trained men. If we hnd had several millions of men with military training In our Industries nnd on our furms when the war came, who could have been called at once for service, I do not believe th« kaiser would -have forced the war upon us. As it was, he had no respect for us. nnd now we arfc In It and must go through with It. But never again must we be cuught so wholly unprepared. “There Is only one safe way,” Said Uncle Dan, “nnd that Is to udopt per manently universal ^military training, apply It to every v young man who Is physically fit, say In his nineteenth or twentieth* yeaT. The training can be' carried fortvard In the United States training/camps that are now being es- ed for training men called by leetlve draft. As soon as these aente these stations, they should be filled by younger men, and this should be made the permanent policy of the country.” Billie’s mother, Mrs. Graham, had overheard the conversation. She came out and said: “Really, Brother Dan, are you serious as to the dangers of our country? If it is ns brains that, it is high time fhr us to wake Up and do something about it. ” \ - “Exactly,” replied Uncle Dan. “It Is fetter to wake up now than to be r.udely nxyakeneil later. We may as well understand, sister, that this is our war nnd we must win it or God help America. Everything that we have or hope to have—otlr liberties, our blessings, our opportunities nr\* all in volved in the great issue before us. Nothing must stand between Us nnd winning this war. It is a question whether the peoples’ right or the kai ser’s might shall dominate the world. If there ever was' a holy -war, this is it; We are/fighting for world liberty. We are fighting for the freedom of humanity. We are fighting for ' the right of men to govern themselves in stead of being governed against thei. will by a war-mad overlord Perilous, tijnes are ahead ot us. We must be prepared to make any sacrifice, to per-* form any 'service that may be required of. us.” j “Oh, Uucle~t)an,” exclaimed Billie, "muy I bring my chum, Jimmie Col lins, when we’hnve our next talk? He is a bug on this war business and Just crazy to see you.’ 1 “Certainly,” said Unde Dan, with s hearty laugh". “If we are to have more talks, I shall be glad to have Jimmie join us."
