We Are in a War
As the days go on and events even-
tuate it is very evident that the Uni-
ted States is in a real war, one that
will test every resource of men, mon-
ey, munitions and supplies; a war
that will put every man and woman
in this country on their metal to car-
ry on the war to a successful con-
clusion.
There is no use mincing matters,
no use shutting our eyes to condi-
tions. We axe in a war, the brunt of |
which from now on i3 to be borne by
the Uni-ed State3. England and
France have been worked to their
utmost, and f.*om now on i.i supplies,
men, munitions and money w.ll de-
teriote instead of increase. Rassia j
is out of it completely, being rcvolu- |
tionized and revolutionised daily.
Italy is nearly in the same boat, its
armies retreating daily and the
morale of its people and soldiers fail-
ing. There is every indication that
it will be out of the war in a few
weeks at the most. Nothing can be
hoped for from Roumnnia, Servia or
Greece, which leaves France, England
and the United States to carry on the
war.
' Germany and Austria are by no
means at the end of their resources.
They are in a desperate condition, but \
the desperate man fights all the
harder because he is in that condi- I
tion. Corner a rat, and he fights un- i
til the last drop of blood is drained
from his veins. That is the situation
as regards Germany and Austria;
now. They have nothing to lose and
everything to gain by pushing the j
war as fiercely as possibly—and they
are certainly pushing it.
It therefore behooves America and
Americans to face the situation that
confronts them with every iota of
resolution at their command. We are
in the war, and must go through with
it. That we will eventually win goes
without saying, but that winning may
rfe brought about in our own coun-
try instead of in Europe. It will cer-
tainly be brought about either there
or here, and it is up to us to deter-
mine where.
But let us not forget for a single
moment, let not one of us forget, that
we are in a real war, a war that de-
mands and must have our own indivi-
dual and concentrated and consecra-
ted support if we expect to win.
Entertain your friends at Box
Ball, a healthful exercise, ladies es-
pecially invited.
