GERMAN LOAN PLEA PLAYED
ON FEARS.
Success of U Boats and Overthrow of
the Czar Cited as Arguments For |
Subscriptions—Soldiers at the Front |
Urge Relatives at Home to Buy War
Securities.
How the German government appeal-
ed to the hopes and fears of its sub- |
jects in its calls for subscriptions to
the sixth war loan of $3,570,000,000 |
voted by the reichstag over the opposi- |
tion of the Socialist minority on Feb. |
23 is brought out in items found in Ger- |
man newspapers recently received in |
New York and London. The time for |
subscribing to the loan officially expir- |
ed on April 16, and on April 27 Count |
von Roedeen, secretary of the imperial |
German treasury, is reported to have
announced that the amount pledged to
date was almost $3,094,000,000, with
some of the men at the front still to be
heard from,
Dangers Menacing German Homes.
In addition to the special references
made in the appeals issued after April
6 to the necessity of “giving a straight
answer to Wilson,” mentioned in cable-
grams to the American press, the Ger-
man war loan pleas laid great emphasis
upon the alleged atrocities committed
by the allies and the danger menacing
German homes in case the enemy suc-
ceeded in breaking the German defense
lines. Here is an appeal printed in the
Kolnische Zeitung:
“Remember that our foes have re-
jected the sincere offer of peace by our
kaiser, rejected it with insolent mock-
ery. Remember that England, who can-
not conquer us with honorable weapons,
engaged in a cowardly starvation war
against our women, children and aged.
Remember that France stirs up murder-
ous beasts in the shape of men against
you; that she sends colored beasts
against your sons, brothers and fathers
in the field. Remember what Russia's
savage Cossack hordes have made of
the flourishing Yast Prussian province
and its peaceful inhabitants, Remember
that ‘neutral America has broken off
relations with us because our subma-
rines have disturbed its ‘business.’ Re-
member the treachery of Roumania
and Italy. Remember the maltreatment
of our impriscned heroes in enemy
countries. Remember the bombing of
peaceful, undefended towus by our
foes. Remember the Daralong.
“If you remember all this you will
know what you have to expect and
what you have to do. Everything is at
stake. Subscribe to the sixth war loan
and compel our enemies to make peace.”
The Kolnische Volkszeitung, a leading
organ of the Clerical party, printed the
following : ?
“We battle in storm wind and weath-
er turmoil ; we hold out in the rain of
bullets and protect the homeland with
our hard, horny hands. See that we
are not beaten and help us to victory.
In hunger 2nd thirst and hard necessity
we obey the dictate of the hour. Help
us to victory.
“Our blood is flowing in torrents from
the North sea to the Euxine. We suffer
from frost and from the sun's pitiless
heat. We suffer unending tortures for
our country. But our eagle’s wings still
fly proudly. Help us to victory. It is
to you we look to nerve the armed fist
so that when the storm of battle rages
our hands more firmly grasp the rifle,
so that we break the deceitful enemy’s
power. Give us gold and silver for the
fight. Help us to victory.”
Optimistic Note Introduced.
In the official advertisements of the
war loan an optimistic note is often
found, as is evidenced by the following
excerpt:
“Everything is tottering!
“On all the fronts we have torn away
immense territories from the enemy!
«“Qur submarines have administered
the deathblow to enemy commerce!
“The authors of the war, Grey and
Asquith, Delcasse and Briand, have
been hunted by their own peoples from
their offices and honors!
“In Russia there is revolution! The
czar has been deposed!
“Only one thing stands firm—the
solid foundation of the German state
fabric and the unconquerable strength
of the German people. Upon this rests
the absolute security of the German
war loans.
“Help to win the war! Give your
money to the fatherland, the safest
debtor in the world!”
Letters from soldiers at the front ad-
vising their relatives to buy war se-
curities were also prominently display-
ed in the press. One of these epistles,
eredited to “a brave landwehr soldier,”
writing from Roumania to his wife in a
village near Osnabruck, reads:
“Today I write to you about the war
loan. I know you subscribed to four
eut of the last five loans, but now
eomes the sixth and, we hope, the last.
And as the end is approacting we must
make a special effort. I am sure you
have not got much more money at
home or in the savings bank. But, a3
you wrote to me, we have still got a
quantity of other things which we can
turn into money. Sell as soon as you
can our one cow and the calf, the last
remaining pig and some of the geese,
for it is more important for us to get
money than to have a cow or a gocss.”
People of Sardinia.
Sardinians retain traces of the many
races which have occupied the island
through the centuries—Phoenicians,
Carthaginians, Romans, Saracens, Ital-
fans and Spaniards. Many dialects are
spoken, but Italian is now taught in
the schools.—Exchange.

“BIG OPPORTUNITY
T0 LEARN FLYING
Several Ssctions For Aviators
In Signal Gorps.
"FOUR STATIONS ARE OPEN
Physical R®suirements Are Extremely
Rigid, However, and None but Phys-
ically Perfect Are Accepted—All May
Not Get a Chance to Fly, but Those
Who Make Good Will Get It.
For the man who desires to learn
aviation the war offers opportunities
that never before existed and may nev-
er again. There is no one branch of
the service for aviation, but there are
several sections for fliers under the sig-
nal corps in the army and five branches
in the navy.
Three opportunities to learn to fly are
enumerated in the Directory of Service.
This is the section addressed to those
with ambitions to soar:
“They can enlist in the aviation sec-
tion of the signal enlisted reserve
corps of the army, which is operating
schools at Mineola, N. Y.; at Washing-
ten, Chicago, San Antonio, Tex. and
San Diego, Cal. But there are already
3,000 upon the waiting list at Mineola,
headquarters for this district, so that
practically the only opening for aspir-
ants at present is in the navy.
“Men can join either the aviation
section of the naval militia or one of
the units of the national aerial coast
patrol. The navy itself has no orzani-
zation for aviation as yet, and the
naval militia's aviation section is near-
iy full. The national aerial coast patrol
is the best field at present for learning
aviation.
six units—at Harvard, Columbia, Yale,
ete.—and more are being formed daily.
Physical Requirements Rigid.
“Physical requirements for any avia.
tion division are extremely rigid. An
applicant must have perfect sight apd
hearing, sound lungs, a first class heart
(the slightest weakness disqualifies)
and must be absolutely immune to sea-
sickness. No applicant need consider
the aviation service unless he is in the
prime of health and athletic condition.
“Men enlisted in the signal corps of
the army may serve as nonfliers in the
aviation section,
“Requirements: Applicants must be
between eighteen -and thirty-five, un
married, citizens and able to pass a
nhysical »xamination,
“A certain number of the enlisted
men of the aviation se:«tion of the sig-
nal corps may be examined for the rat.
ing of aviation mechanic,
“There is especial need for men qual
itied as aviators or balloonists and for
mechanicians who have had experience
in connection with the construction
and repair of airplanes or internal
combustion engines.
May Be Promoted to Fliers.
“Enlisted men, in general, are non-
fliers and repair the planes and motors,
magnetos, carburetors, etc. They may
also be promoted to the flier rank.
“The reserve aviation section of the
signal corps is divided into two parts
—(a) the signal officers’ reserve corps,
aviation-section and (b) the signal en-
listed reserve corps, aviation section.
“fhe signal officers’ reserve corps,
aviation section, contains the military
fliers. The signal enlisted reserve
corps, aviation section, contains the
nonfliers or nonflying personnel, these
men who have a knowledge of ma-
chines, motors, magnetos, carburetors,
ete, and who work on the motors,
planes, ete. It also contains those who
are learning to fly in order to qualify
for commissions in the signal officers’
reserve corps, aviation section.”

THIS CASE HAS A HINT FOR
MANY DEMOCRATIC WATCH-
MAN READERS.
A Bellefonte woman has used
Doan’s Kidney Pills.
She has found them as represented.
She wishes her neighbors to know.
She publicly recommends them.
No need to look further for a test-
ed kidney remedy.
The proof of merit is here and can
be investigated.
Profit by the statement of Mrs. John
Mignot, E. High St. She says: “I
suffered from a dull ache across the
small of my back for several weeks.
At times when I bent over or lifted
anything a sharp pain shot through
my back. I had heard of Doan’s Kid-
ney Pills and I knew that they were
good so I began taking them, getting
my. supply at Parrish’s drug store.
Doan’s cured me.”
Price 50c, at all dealers. Don’t
