GERMANY'S PLAN
NAMES OLD
Spirit of Militarism and Conquest
Is as Old as Germany
Itself.
SEEK CONTROL OF WORLD
Failure Due to Fact That It Old Not
Include a Reckoning With Hu
man Nature a* God
Made It
(By HAPSBURG LIEBE of the Vig
ilantes.)
The average man of those who
have kept up with current events dur
ing the last few years will tell you
that Germany's colossal plan Is 40
years old. As a matter of fact, the
seeds of It were sown more than a
dozen times 40 years ago. The spirit
of militarism and conquest and mlght
Is-rlght Is as old as the Teutonic war
party, which ts as old as Germany It
self. The majority of the other na
tions saw plenty of signs of the mon
ster, for the war lords were brag
garts, and they could not refrain from
boasting of their scheme. The won
der of all Is that these other nations,
the United States included, have not
been taking preparatory and defensive
measures for several decades.
The ultimate aim of the plan was,
of course, the complete control and
kulturlzatlon of the world. It was
born of brains rendered brutish
through the over and over Intermarry
Ing of an autocracy that was barba
rian to begin with. A llttl# like a
moon-calf, it was at the outset, but Its
morally befuddled parents fostered It
until they actually believed It pos
sessed rare virtues; and they Inocu
lated the people with Its germs until
the people themeslves fell for It.
Human Nature Ltft Out.
So far this plan has failed, however
narrowly, for the simple reason that
It did not Include a reckoning with
the human nature that God made. The
soldiermen of other nations are In the
long run stronger than the cast-ln-the
mold iron soldiers of Germany. It Is
the thorough organization of the Ger
man armies that has been the chief
difficulty of the entente allies. Per
haps the greatest strength of the plan
itself, however, lay In the very stu
pendousness of It. Few would be
lieve that any one nation would dare
attempt to enslave the rest of the
world. Half the rest of the world does
not realize It yet. It Is too big for
their Imaginations. Their Imagina
tions are, naturally, peace-time.
This Is the main trouble with us
here In America. So many of us will
not see what we are facing or what
we are fighting for. If we did see, the
success of the Liberty Loan and the
Red Cross drives, the food-saving and
the fuel-saving campaigns, would be
much greater. It's of no use now to
harp that omr administration leaders
should have seen the slgna of the times
'several years ago; It kills no German
to blame our representatives at Wash
ington for having been in the past,
not statesmen, but politicians serving
their own Instead of their country's In
terests during those fat, sleepy years
before Germany pried open the gates
of Hell and loosed Its legions upon
earth. The one thing to do now is to
make stepping-stones of mistakes and
work for Liberty!
The Pregnant Truth.
There Is a great deal of truth which
we must not let go by us. You are apt
to push out your chest, I know, and
say: "Impossible!" Let me remind
you of the fuct that the last three
years have been crowded with achieve
ments of the Impossible I Here Is that
pregnant truth: If we let Germany
win over there, Germany will carry
the conquest over here. It la a part
of her colossal plan. Kite why (his
elaborate apy system lu America? Man,
It Is a more complete organization than
our own government! If they come,
of course, we are willing to die for our
country, tvhlch Is noble and brave, bat
what of our womenfolk? There lies
the reddest Hell of the war, brother.
Remember the unspeakable violation
of Belgium.
And remember It, we who have
not gone to France, should do our part
to plant such crops as we never be
fore planted, to support as we never
before supported such movements as
the Liberty loan and the lUd Cross,
and ta suppress German propaganda.
Selah, and Amen. Go to It, Amer

WHEN HE MADE RECORD JUMP
Youngster Was Trying to Escape Dog
He Thought Was Mad, So\There
Was Abundant Reason. >
Commander C. B. Fry, who has tem
porarily relinquished athletlclam In or
der to train boys for • the navy, de
scribed to me the other day how he
first came to discover his ability as
a Jumper.
"When quite a youngster," he said,
"I was one day strolling along close to
our house, when there came bounding
along the road In my direction an ex
ceedingly wlcked-looklng terrier I had
recently become possessed of.
"The animal was foaming at the
mouth and showed other unmistakable
signs of excitement,and distress. Hy
drophobia was rife In the district at
the time. A horrid fear gripped me.
Turning swiftly aside, I took the ditch
and hedge bordering the road in one
wild leap, landed safely In an or
chard on the other side, and wias up a
plum tree a few seconds later.
"The dog, however, followed through
a gap In the hedge and sat at the bot
tom of the tree, but he brought a toad
In his mouth, and I perceived he was
not mad beyond the degree of trying to
eat the toad. So I came down, and
went to have a' look at the hedge I
had Jumped over. '
"It was much higher than my head,
not to mention the ditch. It was many
years before I jumped as -high again."

phosphorescence on the Moon?
Several European observers of the
total lunar eclipse of July 4-5, 1917,
have reported that the brlshtness of the
lunar disk appeared much greater
around the limb than near the center.
These observations lead M. A. Nodon
of Bordeaux to revive a suggestion
that has sometimes been made to ac
count for the brilliancy of certain lu
nar craters; via., that the surface of
the moon may possess a luminosity of
Its own In the nartire of phosphores
cence. Iu that case, perspective would
increase the apparent luminosity to
ward the limb— Scientific American.
