"I desire that you view the matter in the light and spirit of the Spartan mothers of old, who, when their sons went forth to battle for freedom and their native land, said to their sons: Tv'her come home proudly bearing your shield before you or upon it.' "War was absolutely necessary on the part of my country, and although I was thirty-four years old and nobody expected me to go, yet some one had to go some one must make the sacrifice, some mother must lose her son. "In the light

facts,

and

knowing our country's great need, I volunteered, and have never for one moment regretted my decision, and I will not, although my life and a useful career must end. Life is not the highest boon of existence. There are ideals that are superhuman, interests greater than life itself, for which It is worth while fighting, suffering and dying.

If possible after the war, I would like for my remains to be brought to America and interred at White Hall. I have provided well for your support, as I have a (10,000 insurance policy with the government and several thousand with the old line companies. My friends, Thompson and Jess, have these policies and other valuable papers. "Goodby, mother, I will see you In the next world. You may know I died fighting for you, my country and all that life holds dear. Tour son,

NOW OR NEVER WITH KAISER, AND HE KNOWS IT, SAYS ALLIES

PARIS, June 21.—1There fs a Confidence today running through the armies of the allies that has the flavor of victory.

V-I-C-T-O-R-T. It is now or never with the kaiser, and he knows it. That is why every soldier, every gun, every airplane that America can put in France in the next four months will be needed, as it will never be needed again. Every resource, every ounce of strength that the German high command can send against the allied lines in the next fotor months will be hurled forward.

The allied armies must from now on face offensive after offensive, until the German army is exhausted.

It is definitely known that the leaders of Germany have reached this decision. Their armies have been pmced in one giant system of attack and rest, attack and rest, so long as it lasts. The kaiser has staked all on beating the allies before winter, for he knows he cannot do it next year, when 2,000,000 Americans will face him, 2,000,000 of the hardest fighting men his soldiers ever met.

Captured German officers say, and they are supported by captured documents, that the immediate German plan is to make one straight line from Montdidier to Compiegne to Chateau Thierry. A glance at the war map shows that to do this.they must take from the allies a salient about fifty kilometers

It Is an out and out battle for the next four months, probably the hardest fighting the world ever saw. It is the allies' task to hold the Germans during these four months. The Americans will play an important role in that task, fighting with the aim of holding the boche until they can get after him overwhelmingly next year.

Germany fears America, ana that fear is growing. At first the high command told their officers and the officers told the soldiers that the Americans

Then the officers told the German soldiers the Amerocan would not fight. Now the German soldiers know the Americans can and will fight and more and more of them are learning every day. There is no lack of evidence that the German populace fears America's power In the war, and no question that the German high command is seriously perturbed at the results when the real news of the Americans' fighting gets back to the people.
