Every day the great principles for which we are fighting take fresh hold upon our thought and purpose and make It clearer what the eud must be and what we must do to achieve it. We now know more certainly than we ever knew before why free men brought the great nation and government we love Into existence, because it grows clearer and clearer what supreme service it is to be America's privilege to render to the world. The anniversary of the discovery of Amer-le- a must therefore have for us in this fateful year a peculiar and thrilling significance. We should make it a day of ardent rededication to the Ideals upon which our government Is founded and by which our present her4c tasks are Inspired. Now, therefore, I, Woodrow Wilson, President of the United States of America, do appoint Saturday, the 12th day of October, 1918, as Liberty day. On that day I request the citizens of every community of the United States, city, town and countryside, to celebrate the discovery of our country in order to stimulate a generous response to the Fourth Liberty Loan. Commemorative addresses, pageants, harvest home festivals, or other demonstrations should be arranged for in every neighborhood under the general direction of the secretary of the treasury and the immediate direction of the Liberty Loan committee, In with the United States bureau of education and the public school authorities. Let the people's response to the Fourth Liberty Loan express the measure of their devotion to the ideals which have guided the country from Its discovery until now, and of their determined purpose to defend them and guarantee their triumph. For the purpose of participating in Liberty day celebrations ail employees of the federal government throughout the country who& services can be spared may be excused on Saturday, the 12th day of October, for the entire day.

Pester Widely Circulated in Kaiser's Empire, and Reproduced in This Country, Show, Morale of Huns Is Being Shattered. A poster recently Issued by the imperial German government in an effort to belittle the participation of America in the war and thus strengthen the morale of her people form the text of one of the most striking pieces of literature that the bureau of publicity of the war loan organization has prepared for use In the forthcoming Fourth Liberty loan. The title of the poster Is "Can America's Entry Make a decision of the War?" Integral sections of it attempt to convince the reader that America's army cannot take the place of Russia's withdrawn forces ; that the United States cannot build enough ships to have any effect on the result of the will destroy war, and that the America the that all ships virtually can build when those ships attempt to cross the ocean. A French poster also is reproduced in the German poster and the meaning so twisted as Jo make it appear that France is very bndly in need of food. Two millions of the booklets have been printed and will be distributed in various parts of the country, particularly in theaters where Liberty-Loaspeakers take the book as their n text. The enormous figure of a Russian 'soldier is the first object on the poster to strike the eye. He stands with On the opposite side of the poster Is this catchline: "England's sea power and England's merchant marine have not decided the war!" Below this line appears a huge figure Intended to represent the English shipping facilities at the outbreak of the war, which bears these words: "England went into the war with twenty million gross registered tons of freight space." Alongside tills figure of a ship is a drawing designed to show Uncle Sam carrying the United States tonnage under his left arm. The caption abofe Uncle Sam reads: "Can America replace England on sea?" On the ship which Uncle Sum carries is printed this inscription: "Three million gross registry tons," and below that is another inscription which says: "At the beginning of the war America had only a tonnage of three million gross registered tons." Commenting on these statements, the poster further declares "America cannot increase her gross registered tons for 191S by more than two to two and a half million tons. Our sink twice as quickly as England and America can build!" The answer of the- - publicity bureau to the two section of the poster referring to the tramp station of men and the building of ships follows : "At the moment the bulletin boards of Germany scoffed the possibility of America sending a force, to France, there were already more than a million fighting men overseas, and transports, walled about by the American navy defying the cowardly submarines, were bearing every month hundreds of thousands more. The gauge is set and the summer of 1919 will see 4,000,000 fighting American men in France. Nor will there be a lack of ships to transport and sustain them. The Liberty Bond buyer is fast giving to America a merchant marine that rtll be the peer of any in the world. America launched in July alone 635,011 tons. Losses to allied and neutral shipping combined, from every cause, for the last six months, amounted to 2,089,393 tons. "The distance from New York to England, the Boche points out," comments the bureau of publicity publication, "is two hundred times greater than that from England to France, from which he spells 'Opportunity for the German Fitiful is this boast in face of the facts. Instead of the being an unconquerable engine of war, as the Hun confidently expected, it has become the slinking foe of fishing smacks and other Isolated craft. The vast army of Liberty Bond buyers, thirty millions strong, has built an unbroken bridge over the Atlantic ocean into the heart of the Across this enemy's strongholds. bridge there are streaming our millions of fighting men, as good as the world has ever known, munitions and equipment that have been wrought by those back home, whose determination Is that the American fighting man shall lack nothing that he needs." As a slap at the French, the German propagandists have. reproduced a French poster which pleads with French people to ent less in order that the United States may send over more man power. The French poster pointed out that if every person in France would save a hundred grams of food a day that the American reinforcements could be Increased a division a month. The French catchline on this poster was "Does France want wheat or men?" and the German poster remarks "Also the allies are now beginning to have their doubts!" In a further effort to convince the German people that It will be impossible for the United States to transport troops to France, the German section of the poster says that ten tons of freight space are required for every soldier in crossing the water. The truth is that a soldier requires this amount of less than one-hal- f space. Summing up all the falsehoods which the German poster contains, the booklet says: "The War Lord of Germany may have the futile hope that his people will devour In the place of food, such statements as the foregoFalsehoods, however, are poor ing. substitutes and are likely to aggravate rather than appease when the deluded people of Germany learn that every requirement of the American soldfer will be met by his patriotic and unqualified support back home. If a single soldier required ten tons of freight space, it would be given him But the truth is he requires less than one-haof that. "As for Germany's statement that even If the United States built from two and a half million gross registered tons in 1918, it would not mean deliverance for the allies, no further comment is needed than that by July mark of this year the 2,000,000-to- n has been pnssed. If further refutation of the Hun boast of his prowess were needed. It might be stated that less than 500 American solders have lost their lives in the atpresent war as a result of back-hande- UTAH DALE- - d The Thrifty Farmer. Hired Man Say.
