If the so-called "wear cotton" propaganda had gone over, we would have had to fight this war out with fire- PASSENGERS ROOT AS U-BOAT IS SUNK Continued from Page One. Olronde early Monday morning and left tb sea And the U-boats behind us. There was some little thought of submarines from the becinnlnjr of the trip. Even on the first day out from New York the ship ran with all llahta out and the portholes shielded.

Later passengers were forbidden to smoke on deck at night, and once there was a life-boat drill of sort, but the boats were not swung: out until we met. the submarine. An old lady complained to the purser because a young man In the music room Insisted on plaving the "Dead March" from "Saul. There was more cheerful music. The ambulance drivers saw to that.

We had an Amherst unit and one from LeUnd Stanford, and the boys were nineteen or thereabouts. It is well enough to say that All the romance has gone out of modern war. but you can't convtnee a nlneteen-year-older of that when he has his first khakl on his back and his first antityphoid inoculation in hi Arm. They boasted of arms sore with the stress of a billion germs, and they played ban-Jos and sang songs. Mostly they sang At night.

Ignore Listening Submarines. The smallest ambulance driver hAd a nice tenor voice. And when he sat on tbe upper deck he did not care what submarine commander knew that "be learn'd about woman from her." He and his companions raked the stars with "She Knifed Me One Night." Day times they studied French from 1 i It was the second day out that I heard a from Jut outside my porthole inquire 'EST what's that and how do you say it?" Later on the smallest ambulance driver had made marked progress and was explaining "Mon oncle a ne bonne Mle. mals mon pere est riche." Romance wa not hard to find on the steamers. The slow 'waiter who limped had been wounded, at the Marne and the little fat stewardess had spent twenty-two davs aboard the German raider Eitel Friedrich.

There were French soidiers in the steerage, and one cf them bad the Croix de Guerre and seven wounds. Proud of His Americanism. But when the steamer came up the Olronde the smallest ambulance driver the one who knew "csf and women-summed th.ir.g-a up and decided that he was glad he was an American. He looked around the deck at the Red Cros and the rest who had stood along th' rail and cheered in the submarine f.sht and he said: never vcuid have thought it of 'em. It's nice to know American women have sot so much nerve." The smallest ambulance driver drew hmst'if up to his full five feet four and the lint off his uniform.

Ye. sir." he "we men have certainly eot to hand it to the girls on boa.t." And as he went down the gar.cplank be was humming "And I Uarued about women from her." Modest. I you? Not nwii! Well. I ocjy aa or te- s. t.

crackers or soda crackers or pea shooters. That was a fine idea, wasn't it? Up to the Experts. All of which goes to prove that we had better let the expert In this country heaven knows we have enoueh of them carry out th President's ideas. And the ret of us can find plenty to do keeping the fools from throwing wrenches into th gearset. Right now the fools are busier than ever.

Some of them are holding peace demonstrations down In Boston, and the rest of them are sitting up nights trying to work out new stunts for putting busnieps on the "Frit." President Wilson, after conferring with delegates from the nations that have teen In this war from the beginning, tells us that the all-important thine for it to rto Is to keep our Industries in. Jn spit of this counsel, the fools are ahouUnir at the tops of their voices: "Ion't buy any "Don't buy any new clothes. "Don't spend any money with the laundries torn your collars wrong side out and wear them two days! "Keep your wife away from tho department stores! let your children go to the movies: I "Don't do anything- that will keep- our factories and our stores, and our places of amusement running! "Close up everything and pay the expenses of this war out -of the cxccps profits of bAnkruptcy It's Monkey Chatter. The fools of this country might as well be made to understand richt now and rUht her that we are not Koing to tlay into the kaiser's band by. listening- to their monkey chatter.

We know Just how serious this' war Is. But we know, on the other hand, that our fools are even more serious. We Also know that no one ever won a war In sackcloth and ashes. We must have business In this country. must keep our heads up.

We muit preserve our prosperity, because America' wealth is her biggest gun. Shall we let the fools take the whed st this dangeroua turn In the -read?
