CANNOT PAY FOR LIVES LOST i 1 | Nation Must Be Forced to Pay and Pay and Pay, Until It Has Learned That Might Is Not Right. By WRIGHT A. PATTERSON. There are in France and Belgium today very close to 38,000,000 soldier graves that would not have been there had Germany not started a war of con- quest to gratify the selfish ambitions of a selfish people for world domination. In these graves are buried the heroes of America, of England, of France, of Belgium, of Italy, of Can- nda, of Australia, of South Africa, of India, of Portugal, of Morocco, of ; China and other parts of the world. These heroes gave thelr Hves that the cruelly selfish plans of the Boche might be defeated; that the world might be a dwelling place for freemen pnd not for the slaves of autocracy. And the war in which they made punish the nations that have commit- ted the most terrible erimes known to modern times, at least, by making the people of these nations work only that they may pay. Among the saddest sights to be the spot where g soldier met death by thousands of these seen sides of the thousand miles of road- ways I covered in Belgium and north- ern France, and in very many cases they marked the spot where a German shell had caught a transport driver as front. ly graves were herole American boys, herole French boys, hervole boys, and they have pald the great price that the Boche might not stroy the freedom of the world. DRUFF MAKES HAR FALL OUT | A small bottle of “Danderine” keeps hair thick, strong, beautiful. Girls! Try this! Doubles beauty of your hair in a few moments. AR comparison with this sacrifice. tween the methods of the Boche and those of the nations that have been fighting the Germans. Here He buried soldiers. Around each cemetery French have bulit a fence. Over each Germany only to gratify the selfish | greed of a people who had been taught that might is right, I realized the tragic Interest of America in these graves as I walked over the hilltop at Guillimont farm, near the village of Bony, and found there two large cemeteries in which American dead lle buried. 1 realized it anew as Gen. Henry Rawlinson, commanding the Fourth British army, recounted to me the incidents of that battle in which American troops made the first break In the Hindenburg line, and when he told me of the wonderful gallantry of those American boys, “the most gallant troops that ever fought on a battlefield.” Today more than 1.000 of those gal- lant American boys are buried in sol dier graves on that battlefield, and lit. tle wooden crosses mark their resting places, Severe Lesson for Germany. German money cannot pay for those lives, hut that spirit of greed, of wan- tonness, of selfish ambition, that pro- duced the senseless, needless war in which they died, must be crushed, and it can be crushed only by making the German pay, and pay, and pay, until he has learned that might is not right and that war for the purposes of con- I quest and domination is not profitable. An American regiment, to which 1 had belonged some years ago, and in which were enrolled many personal friends, had fought on that field. As I walked beside the long rows of wooden crosses, and knew that some of them marked the resting places of my friends, I felt, as any other Ameri. | ean would have felt under the same conditions, that Germany must pay in ' order that Germany should learn that might is not right. I am sure that every father, every mother, every brother, every sister, every relative and friend of those American boys who are buried on Eu- ropean battlefields will feel that Ger- many must pay and pay heavily for | the desolation she has caused through out the world. There is on the Somme battlefields, ' pot far from what once was the beau tiful little city of Peronne, a soldiers’ | pemetery in which British troops are buried. On each little wooden cross | had been painted the name of the sol dier buried beneath it, as well as the | Jetter of his company and the number of his battalion. In the onrush of the | fluns last March this cemetery was | taken, and the wanton cruelty of the | Boche 1s nowise better illustrated than . by the fact that he went through that | cemetery and painted out the names | of these British dead. | emphasizes the need that Germany pay for the desecration of the graves of the allied soldiers committed by her troops in France, Further Display of Impudence, an insult to the French people. Here are buried a large number of German officers, government erected a magnificent of these German officers, and over the graves stand elaborate marble and granite monuments erected to memory of these German officers on what has always been French soil, and they stand there as one of the ted by the German nation in this war. This is but another of the many, many incidents that add to the ser) ousness of the crimes committed by pay. A very considerable portion of the soil of Belgium and northern France is today given over to the graves of soldiers of the allles, and these sol- dier boys would not be dead, these Within ten minntes after an appli ation of Danderine you can not find a single trace of dandruff or falling hair and your scalp will not teh, but what will please you most will be after a few weeks use, when you see pew hair, fine end downy at first—yes—but really new halr-—growing all over the sealp.
