The watchman and southron. (Sumter, S.C.) 1881-1930, April 25, 1917, Image 3
All of tho nations In this war are
taortgagtng posterity and burning the
money up in powder smoke.
In the March number of Harper's
mejaslne Mr. Joseph E. Davis gave
???he astounding figures on the cost of
the war. It Is costing all tho nations
110 millions dollars a day. The ag?
gregate earr ings of all the people in
?41 the countries is 21 million a day,
?o that for every day that the war
continues they spend five times the
dally savings of the people.
la tho first two years of the war the
governments borrowed forty billion of
tiollars. This vast sum of course will
never be repaid but the Interest must
be met unless there Is wholesale re
Indication by > the nations concerned.
Which la unthinkable. If the war
finishes out another year, the debt
will bo about 100 billion dollars, to
which must be added 30 billion for
W*? debts existing when war was de?
clared. This makes 130 billion which
Is greater than tho total wealth of
either Bag land or Germany and more
torn* the combined wealth of Italy and
France, it will take 21 per cent, an?
nually out of the dollar for every man,
woman and child In all of the war?
ring countries to pay the interest i
^TTiS flower of all the nations are being
killed or crippled so how will the
people pay 25c on the dollar in inter
eat, maintain their government, pay
war pensions and have anything left
to live upon. It certainly looks as if
It would be Impossible to continue to
maintain standing armies on a hin;
scale. The Interest on this debt will
be six times greater than the Jaxe*
Collected In the British empire during
the last year of peace. All of the
taxes collected, federal, state, towns
end countiea In the United States last
year was fifteen hundred million
dollars and this would not pay the In?
terest ono year at 4 per cent, on
Orsat Britain's share of the war debt.
What does it all mean? Are the na?
tions of the world bent on suicide.
But yesterday scientists were busy
hunting disease germs and making sc
rums to prolong human life. We were
building hospitals and asylums, pro?
viding retreats for the aged and doing
all Ir our power to relieve the suffer?
ing and banish disease. Suddenly the
flames of war burst forth, so that men
see each others white faces by the
red glare that blase down from tin
midnight sky while their ears arc
deafened by the roar of mighty can?
non. Every human impulse Is gone*
and satanic cruelty reigns supreme.
Women and children are murderod
whole nations are exterminated, do
ported as slaves or driven like beasts
to the forest. The civilization of a
thousand years with twenty centuries
of Christianity vanished over night.
Trembling on every lip, the question
Is "Is It Armageddon?" I find thai
Armageddon means the great destruc?
tion, the final conflict the judgment of
Qod. It may be that America is now
taking her place on that great Meld
of Armageddon foretold In holy writ
and dimly oeen by poet and painters
where tho final battle shall come be?
tween error and truth, and In which
man's Immortal soul finally conquers
h>s brute nature
I do not know but these are grand
snd awful times, something colossally
good or colossally evil is bound to
come of such a tremendous upheaval.
Wherever 1 go. whether in the quiet
of my farm or on busy Wall street 1
sense a great feeling among the peo?
ple that something of appalling mag?
nitude must happen ere long. A mys?
tical sense of impending trouble ha
hung over us like a dark shadow ever
since the Iaisttania went to her ocean
grave. This universal feeling, half
doubt and half fear, this wistful peer?
ing Into the future .this vague dreac
of the unknown tomorrow Is at once
a warning and u call from God for ac?
tion. It is easy to see now that it
would have beet. Letter for this coun
try to have gone to war when th"
Laisltanla was sunk. We would haV<
at least been prepared to defend our- j
selves.
No sensible man wants war, for two
years President Wilson has used cv ,
eiy means to avoid war. but German' |
has repeatedly broken her promise
and while professing friendship has
conspired with Japan and Mexico tc
attack and dismember our country A
Mexican army officered by Germans
Ulled with lust and love of plunde
are threstening Texas with the fat"
that came to Belgium and France
Congress has spoken for the people.
Theer is no room for a divided alle
glance. Wo had British Tories durlnr
the Revolutionary war. One-third of
all the colonlnt* were Tories In 1775.
They raise. 1 rSglSSOntS, joined the I'.r..
Ish and Joyously shot down their ov.
neighbors. They organized the In?
dians and brought them down on ti<
white settlers In Pennsylvania aivl
New York. I believe the great n: ?
of German Americans are loyal to
the fnlted States and that the t lern?'
Tories who are organizing lit M? \ ?
Will meet the fStS tiny deserve, V .

world oppression will hand a legacy <o

1 dent Wilson and I um In favor of the
United 8tr rejatng an army of two
million men for self-defe? > and
making our navy second to .one. 1
am ready to do my part and make
such sacrifices as called upon for. 1
believe that this in a light between
militarism and democracy. The soul
of Home lives today in Germany. The
very title of Kaiser comes from tlv
word Caesar. The spirit which that
name represents was born in Rome
twenty centuries ago. It swept over
the earth then and no country failed
to pay Roman tribute. All roads lead
to Rome.
The same militarism again threat?
ens the world; under the leadership o?
a modern Caesar it is hurling its pow?
er in every direction. It has organ?
ised the Mnhomedan world and threat?
ens the United States with Japan and
Mexico. If the Kaiser was merely i
man his power would long ago have
crumbled, but he is more than a man,
ho Is an idea. The ideal of imperial
I Rome was law and unquestioning
i ^edlenco to law. Julius Caesar was
[ its embodiment. How like German
Kultur with the Kaiser us its idcul.
The Materialism of Rome finds its
counterpart in the rationalism of Ger?
many. At stated periods this grim
spectre of Caesar stalks forth with its
dark shadow of militarism and do
I luges the earth in blood, before it
shatters its strength against the ever?
growing spirit of democracy. Na?
poleon was a real Caesar, born in a
great revolution without family or
friends, his genius gathered mighty
forces about him. He burled his arm?
ies across the Rhine and the Danub?
into the very heart of Russia. His
banners bore the name of Napoleon,
not France, just as the legions o^
Caesar bore his name not Rome. The
utterance of the Kaiser claiming that
he is responsible not to the German
people, but to God alone is the same
spirit. Napoleon seized France by tbe
throat and led her where he would.
Three million of her sons laid down
their lives at his command. For
twenty-five years his army marched
to and fro making one bloody battle
ground of Europe, finally the dark
tragedy was over. Napoleon chained
liko a wild beast to a rock in mid
ocean and France in the dust under
the armed heel of every nation in Eu?
rope, A like late awaits Germany and
I am sincerely sorry for the hard
working people of that country. They
are being sacrificed to the ambition
of a military Junta.
The Germans are a great peopK
who were developing at a great pace
For thirty years it wus dinned into
their ears, that all the nutions were
jealous and ready to dismember th<
empire. The teed of suspicion were
planted and NlOttchc. Bernhardt. vo?
Buelow and others >oldly claimed that
the Germans were a super race and
the Kaiser a super man fitted to lea;
in a war of frightftlness to force Ger?
man Kultur upon all the nations
Finally the nation believed this and
the killing of one man and one woman
In distant Scrl la was the spark that
set the flame. It is a challenge by
Germany for the domination of the
earth. It Is the lame doctrine. Might
makes right, proclaimed by Xerxes.
Alexander. Caesar, Charlemange. Ma?
homet, Napoleon and every world con?
queror. The German people honest!}
bellc\e. they ha'e been marie to bo
lieve that they can only accomplish
their destiny by blood and iron, und
they proclaim th-* gospel of frightful
ness for all who bar their path. Thov
intend to win the world and fore?
German Ideals upon It with their
Krupp guns and BU ?marines. It is a
terrible faith, when back of it is Ger?
man efheiency and Ihe armed prepar?
ation of 40 yeara
I remember about 27* years ago
reading a speech of BleUiark, w hom I
consider one of the world's gieatesi
statesmen. This speech was delivered
on his 70th birthday, and 1 was so
struckw with it thai I pasted it m ;
scrup book. Hisma k disapproved of
annexing Alsace and Lora inc. lit:
great mind foresaw trouble for Ger?
many. After the death of Frederick
when the. present Kaiser came to the
throne he got rid of Bismark as soon
?s he cjould. The old man lived on hll
estate and on his birthday a great
crowd came out to pay their respects
In his speech he used the phrase th?4
"once aroused, not the whole worb
could overcome the furor tUOtonlCUS.'
in view of what Is happening now ;t
looks as if the old n an knew his pe;>
pie. \jct us not deceive oureelve
thlr "furor tOUtonlCUS" backed by th
genius, amazing resources and or
ganizatlon of the empire will giv
Uncle San? the tussel of his life
The Kalter alma at a new map of th
world. In the pursuit of that obje -
he holds that treaties ate "mere scrap
of paper." and he who is not for m
Is against me and m ist be wiped out
It Im an overbenrlnr and cniel doe
trine, nnd It will take hard blows be
fore the faith Of the German peopb
is Shattered In this I leal. They hav<
ten million men under arms, and I tfn
not take much atoek la the starvation
gtffjfj, Aa long us Guiiuauy bus go*/
session of the Balkans with a li to of
j railroad to Constantinople and on far
into Asia, they cannot he starved. In
a short time now they will harvest an?
other crop, and the figures show that
Germany produces enough vital food
to care for her people. Germany has
.suffered heavy losses, but from all
that I can read her spirit is unbroken.
She still has confidence in her ulti?
mate triumph. Engalnd is the back
bo*' of the allies. Germany believes
if *no can so terrify the world, that
ships will not enter the submarine
zone, that she can starve England into
submission. So far as he United
States is concerned she has no real
friends in Europe. We should ?<> lute
the war strictly in self-defense, to pio
tcct our property and citizens on the
high seas and stop right there.
It is not altogether impossible that
we may find ourselves pitted Jingle
handed against the greatest military
machine the world has ever known.
Let us not deceive ourselves thai this
war will be on paper. We ahould
have universal military service. We
j should equip and train a field force of
at least two million men. The time
for disarmament will come after this
j war is over and the United State*
will lead the way. Our vast national
wealth, without any army and navy,
makes us a prize to tempt the cupid?
ity of the nations who have all their
capital Invested in military establish?
ments, No European power with
the possible exception of France is
our friend except to uso us for selfish
ends, and not one but would levy tri?
butes upon us at the first opportunity.
The foundation of our foreign pol
j icy has been Washington's farewell
address and the Monroe doctrine.
There was never a time when it was
more important to avoid entangling
Vforeign alliances. America has the
men and money. We are protected by
a great ocean on both sides and we
should adhere to establish American
doctrine. We can co-operate as we d?d
in the Boxer trouble In China and
that is as far as we should go. A
foreign war by this republic for con?
quest or for anything except the pro?
tection of American lives and property
or the maintenance of the Monroe
doctrine will be the grave of repubb ?
can institutions. Monarchies may
flourish and aristocracies always fat
ten on war, but the other course
means a military republic, and :hi
soon becomes subject to personal gov?
ernment.
America is the world's leader in de
mocracy. Germany the world's leade:
In autocracy. Our war is not against
the Herman people, it is to overthrow
an Ideal which, if it triumphs, woulc'
enslave the Germans as much ai
ourselves. There were two autocrat
in Europe. The'Czar, also a mo< ill
cation of the word Caesar, is over?
thrown because he w0s secretly tryhv
to aid the Kaiser. There is something
wondorfu'ly contagious in the spirit ot
democracy. It travels on the wings
of the wind and is borne 6n the ray.;
of the sun Into the dark places. Let
us pray that the air of freedom be
carried westward across the wai
swept plains of Poland Into Germany
and overturn the other autocrat.
Modern democracy was born In tin
free cities along the Rhine and there
are three republics in the German
empire. The republic of Germany
would soon end the war. That would
be "peace without victory" except
the Victory Of error over truth, and
the triumph of Germany's better soil
over tryanny and scltishness. For two
generations the world has been steep?
ed in love of money, and greed or'
gain has smothered our noble in?
stincts. It 1* time for a re-action. The
re-action from the brutality of th^
dark ages gave the world the days of
chivalry and the crusaders. The spir?
it of the crusader is always latent In
the human breast. It only needs to
lie fanned into a tlame, and the atti?
tude of Germany will he sure to kindle
the fanaticism of mankind every?
where. In another year it will reach
a point where the destruction of Ger?
many will bo Inevitable. The Rus?
sian Duma replying to Germany's
peace proposal said they would listen
to no proposal until Prussianism was
removed.
Within eight years Turkey, Portu?
gal, China, Persia and flussla haw
had revolutions and now only Ger?
man autocracy bats the path of de?
mocracy. The Russian revolution, the
entry of the United States. China, Bra?
sil and Cuba into the war, spells the
end for the Hohenzollern dynasty
Wilson's speech to congress translat?
ed and dropped from aeroplanes Into
Germany is sowing the seeds of rev?
olution, Germany is bound to lose In
the end, not merely because the allle
are numerically stronger, but when
the United States enters with no sol
fish purpose, it makes her opponents
infinitely stronger spiritually and mor?
ally. Germany with all her military
power ami hoasted efficiency will g<
down before the outraged eonscienc
of n world in arms. The only hope
of escape from destruction is r revo?
lution at home which will remove the
malign inlluence of Prusslo aild gdl
mil her again Into the brotherhood of
i nations, ^ . ^ _^
The time is not yet ripe for peace. |
If it came now it would he based on
armies and navies, and these have
failed. Peace cannot be manufactur?
ed, it must grow naturally. The sol?
emn word of nations must mean more
than a "scrap of paper." Confidence
in the progress of society, a belief in
the high destiny of man and rever?
ence for God'l law must be revived
before real peace can come. Out of
j death comes life. Our of human suf
j fering comes human advancement.
Nations are being destroyed and en?
tire people crucified, but out of their
martyrdom they are finding their souls
and the purpose and meaning of life.
Old you eevr see a field of rank woods
of last year's growth, with the new
growth struggling to come. A big
two horse plow comes along and
turns them under, then the disk and
smoothing harrow chops up every?
thing and it goes to improve the land
and make a good bed for the sowing
of seed. That is what war does. The
nations had reached the climax of
greed and selfishness. The people
were pressed to the earth with taxes
to support monarchies, idle artistoe
racies and tremendous armies. Great
Drltaln was more interested In spo. ts
than anything else; she had danger?
ous labor disturbances and threatened
revolution in Ireland. France was
steeped in atheism with Paris
the center of world's vice. Germany
was either a socialism or a militarism.
It had to go one way or the other. As
for the United States we have had no
God for forty years except tho al
might dollar. The land was choked
with fo\U weeds and along cornea war,
the ploughshare of God. It turns them
over adn when the seed bed is smooth
and clean, in the freshness and silence
of a new morning the Divine husband?
man will come forth and sow the seed
of a new and higher civilization. It
is the old story, terror, blood and
death marking the milestones on the
upward march of man.
This war will go on until right
makes might, and then peace shall
flow like a river, and "joy and glad?
ness cover the earth as the waters
cover the sea."

He is trampling out the vintage where
the grapes of wrath are Stored 1
He hath loosed the fateful lightning
of his terrible swift sword;
His truth is marching on.
I have seen him in the watchfires of
a hundred circling camps;
They have builded him an altar In
the evening's dews .and damps:
1 can read his righteous sentence by
the dim and flaring lamps;
His day is maching on.
I have read a fiery gospel, writ in
burnished rows of steel;
"As ye deal with my contomnors, so
with you my grace shall deal;
Let the Hero, born of woman, crush
the serpent with his heel;
Since God is marching on.
He has sounded forth fhe trumpet
that shall never call retreat;
He is sifting out the hearts of men
before his judgment seat;
Oh, be swift, my soul, to answer him
be jubilant, my feet;
Our God is marching on.

DOMESTIC SCIENCE FOR NE?
UROES.
To Grow Pood, Conserve 11 and Pro
vent Waste.
This one idea should be uppermost
In our minds at present.
The educational board has made it
possible for our summer work to be
along this line.
Bach and every one of us should use
our influence in getting as many as we
can reach to plant or assist in plant?
ing all the foodstuff possible. Wc
should have no selfish aims or pur?
poses, but all should unite as Amer?
ican citizens in furthering the plan of
food preparedness.
Every available space should be
used in planting something to eat.
Then we should take steps to con?
serve it, especially that which h* per?
ishable. To that end wc are making
an effort to establish and furnish a
domestic science kitchen with the best
sanitary equipment our means will al?
low. Wc need to begin with at least
$60 for that purpose, so that by the
time berries and vegetables are to be
had we can show anyone who desires
to know how to can, sterilize, sugar
ize or preserve in any economical way
the produce raised. We propose to
make the kitchen a permanent fixture
in the community for the training of
our girls and women in economy, san?
itary, scientific cooking and domestic
art. The way to secure health and
to prevent prevalent diseases, is *o
know how and to keep clean bodies,
clean kitchens and to cook in a thor?
oughly sanitary way. Our negro girls
cannot do this unless they arc trained.
All do not have homes where such
training Is available, and where it Is
in reach they do not always take ad?
vantage of it. Some seem to think
cooking is degrading. If there is any
degredation in it it is the filthy, care?
less, unsanitary way in which it is
done.
If we realize how much of our real
existence and well being is dependent
?'pon the kind of food we eat and the
way it is prepared, we would see how
very necessary it is to have the best
training possible for those who are to
take charge of our cooking. No one
can thoroughly understand this sci?
ence and art, without a very fair
knowledge of chemistry, physics and
physiology.
We therefore most earnestly appeal
j to both white and colored to cooper?
ate with us and give us the assistance
wc need. No investment could be so
l
far-reaching or will do as much to
prevent communicable diseases ud
premature deaths among white and
colored as the training of persons in
sanitary and scientific methods to do
service in the home.
Preventing Waste.
The first way in which food may be
wasted and also do injury to the body,
is to eat more than can be properly
utilized by the body. It is not what
we eat but what we digest that serves
our purpose.
The second way Is In serving more
food (?n the plate than can be eaten.
The excess is thrown away as table
waste. This is a common mistake
with rich and poor. In preparing
school lunches we find this waste of
food. Now is the time for us to stop
it.
The third is that which occurs in
the preparation of food material for
consumption. In removing the inedi?
ble portions as skins, seed, etc., too
much of the edible part is removed.
Also in the trimming of meats there
is great waste unless the parts re?
moved are utilized in making soup.
Oftentimes the nutrient is removed
with the waste, in buying cuts of
meat as loin of beef, rib chops of
lamb and similar cuts, one-fifth of
the cost pays for bone. By not cook?
ing cereals in double boilers it burns
and sticks to the vessels, there Is
great waste. There are many left?
overs, when if properly prepared in
some other form will be very pala
table and be used, thereby instead of
throwing it in the waste could be
made into .middle cakes, or combin?
ed with fruit and made into a pud?
ding. Scraps of meat chopped fine or
ground may be mixed with mashed
potatoes and butter, seasoned, rolled
in flour or cracker dust, fried in fat
and we have croquetts.
What we desire to do is to make
domestic work so pleasant and In
inviting by the proficiency to do it
ucll that many who ha\ e not the ca?
pacity and are misfits in the schools,
trying to teach, will be drawn to the
work of the household, thereby
making the home what it should be.
helping to solve health problem and
elevating labor to the dignity that it
should have ami thereby get proper
remuneration for service. Won't all
help in this effort to train our women
p.lld girls into useful helpers in the
community and not to become bur?
dens. Any contributions will be most
gratefully received and acknowledged
