The people of Europe will be called upon to shed their blood, to sacrifice even their scanty foodstuffs that their armies may be fed, to pay the cost of the war with their pennies while those who bring about the wars enjoy their usual comforts. The battlefields of Europe will be fertilized with the blood, the crush ed bones, the wrecked bodies of those who clamor to kill their fellowmen for what they know not Just a little masterful lying, more frequently referred to as diplomacy, and a carefully worked out scheme of propaganda will work the trick. It has truly been said that there never was a just war. It is' just as true that war is mass murder, a sacrifice of humans for the miserable narrow vision and hatreds of hypocrites who are not worthy of the of their subjects. The United States will do well to refrain from par ticipation in the schemings of the European war mongers. Yes, let us stay in our back yard and attend to our own business, the present condition of which demands our entire attention. low-lies- t AUTUMN, SEASON OF BEAUTY Harvest time has arrived again, that time of year when the creations of nature, stimulated by the assistance of man, are gathered and stored away for future use.
