came known generally about the tall
s before he delivered his address and
plans for a prolonged demonstration,
with stampeding potentialities, vftrt
quickly changed.
The colonel was received warmly
. as he strode down one of the main
aisles with bands playing "The Star
Spangled Banner" and the crowd on
foot cheering. These reached their
height when he declared that "the
sinking of the Lusitania was the fir
ing on Sumter of this war," and that
if the United States had declared
war at that time, "we would have had
a couple of 'million men across seas
months ago, Russia would never have
broken and the war wouldrfave been
over jiow." J;
, Loyal Idealism Essential.
The colonel adhered closely to his
prepared speech, except on one or
two occasions, notably when he ap
pealed to his hearers to perfect their
ideal of citizenship. At no time did
he refer to the reported death in
France of his son, Quentin, but his
audience felt he had this keenly in
mind when he said:
"In this great world crisis, perhaps
he greatest in the history of the
world during the christian era, where
the events of the next few years will
profoundly influence for good or. for
ill our children and our children's
children for generations;
surely in this great crisis where we
are making sacrifices and making
ready for sacrifices on a scale never
before known; surely when we are
rendering such fealty to the idealism
on the part of young men sent abroad
to die, surely we have a right to ask
and to expect a loyal idealism in life
from the men and the women who
stay at home.
"Our young men have gone to the
other side very many of them to
give up in. their joyous prime all
!he glory and all the beauty of life
lor the prize of death in battle for
a lofty ideal. Now, while they are
defending you, can't we men and
women at home make up- our minds
to try and insist, in public and private
on a loftier idealism here at home?
I am asking for an idealism which
shall find expression beside the
hearthstone and in the family and
in the councils of the state and na
tion, i
"And I ask you to see that when
Ihose who have gone abroad to en
dure every species of hardship, to risk
their lives, to give their lives when
those of them who live to come
home, that they shall come home
' to a nation which we by our actions
have made a nation they can be proud
to have fought for and to have died
for." -
Roosevelt's Address.
Colonel Roosevelt's address fol
lows: "The two prime purposes of the
American people at this time, having
precedence of all others, are: First,
to insist upon the absolute and thor
oughgoing Americanization of our
entire citizenship; and, second, to win
the war, to win it as speedily as possi
ble, and to end it by the peace of
overwhelming victory, a peace which
shall guarantee to ous, and to our al
lies and to-all the well behaved na
tions of the civilized world, lasting
relief from the threat and horror of
German world domination.
"As regards Americanism, we must
insist that there be in this country
but one nationality, the American na
tionality. There must be no perpe
tuation in this country of separate na
tional groups, with their separate lan
guages and special loyalties to alien
overseas flags. There can be no 50-50
. Antericanism in this country.
There is room here only for 100 per
cent Americanism, only for those who
k are Americans and nothing else.
"We must have loyalty to only one
flag, the American flag; and it is dis-
loyal to the American flag to try to
be loyal to any other, whether that
other is a foreign flag or the black
and red flags which symbolize either
, anarchy or else treacherous hostility
o all for which this nation stands.
Only One Language.
"There is room in this country
for but one language, the language of
the Declaration of Independence, of
Washington's farewell address, and
of Lincoln's Gettysburg speech and
second inaugural; the English, lang
uage. Americanism transcends every
party consideration. No man who is
not a 100 per cent American is en-J
titled to the support of any party
whieh is itself entitled to be consid
ered an American party.
"This is one side of Americanism.
The other and equally important side
is to insist that every man who
shows himself to be a 100 per cent
American, wholehearted and single
minded in his loyalty to this country,
no matter what his birthplace, na
tional origin or creed, be treated as
on a full and exact equality with
jvery other good American. The bulk
3f American citizens in whole or in
?art of German blood (and I am my
self in part of German blood) are ab
solntely loyal. They have furnished
is large and as gallant a proportion
sf the fighting men of our army and
navy as any other element; and of
course, it is the fighting men who
meet and furnish the highest test of
sound American-citizenship at this
time."
Colonel Roosevelt advocated urii
. versal obligatory military training in
the field for a period at least of six
months for all our young men be
tween the ages of 19 and 21 years. He
als.0 said that women should at once
have the vote in the nation at large.
He cautioned that government owner
ship should be avoided wherever pos
sible. "These, in brief outline, are the
tasks of rebuilding and of upbuilding
which are before us when peace
comes," Roosevelt said in closing,
"but the prime needs now are the
neeeds of war. We must insist that
this whole country be unified, nation
alized and Americanized.'

CHAPTER V.
The Man at the Old Mill.
(Pessy. made Invisible by Camouflafe
Perfume, visits an army camp. Ben and
Bill Dalton throw Into a river a German
spy who tries to get them to desert They
are warned by their captain that they are
liable to punishment for letting the spy
escape.;
GENERAL SWALLOW quickly
introduced his companion to
Peggy.
"This is Miss Purple Swallow," he
twittered, looking at her very proud
ly. 'iSome day I hope she will -come
to our own Birdland to live."
"I hope so too," responded Peggy,
who at the very first glance felt that
she liked the young lady Swallow.
Then she turned to the trouble of Ben
and Bill. "We are looking for a
'jitney driver who is a German spy
Ben and Bill threw him into the river,
and we think he is somewhere in the
swamp now. I am wondering whether
you know the Birds around here well
enough to ask them to help find him."
"To be sure I do," answered Miss
Purple Swallow.
"And they'd do anything for her.
Anybody would," gallantly added
General Swallow, looking at her
fondly.
"There's a flock of Red-Winged
Blackbirds resorting along the river,"
continued Miss Purple Swallow,
ignoring General Swallow's compli
ment. "No human could be in the
swamp without their knowing it.
We'll report in a jiffy."
"Meet us on the edge of the
swamp," Ailed out Peggy as Miss
Purple Swallow and General Swallow
took wing. '
"Were you talking to those
Birds?" asked Ben, who had been
watching the Swallows very intently.
"Of cours. I 'was," replied Peggy.
"They'll have all the Birds in the
swamp looking for the spy within a
minute."
"Say, that's a splendid idea," ex
claimed Bill. "Wouldn't it be great
if we could train birds to be army
scouts and sentinels."
"You have Human Birds for scouts
in France," answered Peggy, think
ing of the aviators.
As they tramped toward the swamp
Ben and Bill explained why the dis
favor of the captain was such a se
rious matter.
"We have perfect records as sol
diers and have earned promotions,"
said Ben. "This kills our chance to
becoming noncommissioned officers."
"Just because we lost our tempers
and pitched that spy into the river
instead of into the guardhouse,"
groaned Bill.
They reached the edge of the
swamp just as the Swallows -me
flying back.
"We've found him," they shrilled
loudly. "A man in xiue suit, all
wet and muddy."
"That's himl" declared Peggy.
"He is down in the old mill beside
the river," twittered General Swal-

the work at the school. They not
only built their own houses and
school buildings, but took care of
them. Each boy was required to
make his own bed, clean his own
room or his part" of the dormitory,
even wash his own clothes. The gen
eral policing and cleaning up of
buildings and grounds was assigned
to the boys, each boy being in turn
placed in command of other boys to
perform specified parts of this work.
Except for the Chinese cooks and
one fireman in the central heating
plant and power house, all the labor
of the school proper was performed
by the boys. They also did the bulk
of the agricultural labor on the 200
acre farm under the direction of a
farm manager.
One of the educational ideas which
Dr. Rumely brought from Germany
and put into effect at Interlaken was
that of taking groups of boys out
on long tramps over the country
side. Sometimes these pilgrimages
would cover only a couple of days,
sometimes longer periods. With Dr.
Rumely and about 40 boys from In
teflaken school I went on one of
these walking trips. v -
Took a Fifteen Mile Tramp.
We tramped from Interlaken one
Saturday afternoon to a point on
the eastern shore of Lake Michigan,
about 15 miles distant, where we
camped for the night amid the sand
dunes, and the next ' day, after a
plunge in the lake, tramped back to
the school. As we marched along the
dusty roadside -Dr. Rumely talked
enthuiastically about his tramns
around Germany with parties of Ger.
man schoolboys. On this, and other
occasions too, he told me of his
dream of the development in America
of a class of great landed proprietors
who would be the leaders and rulers
of America.
These boys, or most of them," he
said, "will inherit fortunes arfd the
control of great enterprises. If they
are early given training in the funda
mentals of agriculture and the habit
,of outdoor life, are -taught to work
witn tneir nands, and so be able later
to direct intelligently the wofk of
others, who labor with their hands,
many of them will buy large tracts of
land and put it under cultivation with
modern methods of scientific agricul
ture. American men of wealth are al
ready beginning to turn their eyes
back to' the land. It is to hese me.i
that we must look for leadership and
I hope to see the fathers of ma.iy- cf
my boys here buying great farms for
them and starting them on a solid
foundation.
Day of Small Farmer Over.
"The day of the 6mall farmer is
about over. Modern agriculture is a
big business operation and must be
financed by men of wealth."
If this sounds like strange Joctrinc
for a socialist, remember that Dr.
Rumely's socialism is the German
state socialism, the scheme of things
under which a ruling class founded
upon the landed estates and control
ling the wealth and capital of the na
tion provides, through its servants,
the scholars and intellectuals, r.n ex
actly measured modicum of comfort
and happiness for the individ'ials of
the lower classes, whom it trains from
I
Blackbirds saw the soldiers throw
him into the river and they followed
him to the old mill."
Peggy quickly interpreted the
Birds' message.
"I know that mill," exclaimed Ben.
"the fishing is mighty good there."
Quickly they made their way down
a grassy lane that led across the
swamp to the mill. The soldiers
swung along at such a pace that
Peggy couldn't keep up with them.
"You walk awful fast," she panted.
"Can't you fly, Invisible Fairy?"
asked Ben in surprise.
"Not today," answered Peggy.
"Then I'll carry you. Where are
you?" He felt around blindly for her.
and Peggy ran into his arms. He
tossed her to his shoulders, where she
clung to his rifle as they hurried
along.
The lane led thruogh heavy under
growth until it came to the clearing
in which the mill stood. At the edge
of the clearing the soldiers halted.
"Maybe he is armed," suggested
Ben. "We'd better go carefully."
"I'll run ahead and see," volunteered
Peggy.
"No, no, he may hurt you," objected
Bill.
"But he can't see me," laughed
Peggy. "I ll be safe."
"That's so," agreed Ben, carefully
dropping her to the ground. "But if
anything should go wrong, just shout,
and we'll be there in a second."
Peggy ran to the mill very confident
ly. If she hadn't been hidden by
Camouflage Perfume she might have
beeni scared, it was so deserted and
spooky looking.
"He is in the little room at the
side," said General Swallow. Peggy
crept up to the door and looked in.
There was a man sitting on a box
lacing his shoes. His clothes were
wet and on the coat was the badge of
a 'jitney' driver. A board sqeaked
under Peggy's weight, and the man
looked up quickly. To Peggy's aston
ishment it wasn't the "jitney" driver
at all. This was a very unhappy look
ing boy no older than Ben and Bill.

childhood to the occupations of the
artisan and the peasant.
This sort of socialism does not
question the right of the rich to rule
the poor, of the strong to dictate to
the weak. It is the socialism that
comes with its at in its hand beg
ging the rich and all powerful rulers
of the state to grant as a privilege
the things that are every human be
ing's right.
It was on one of these hikes with
Dr. Rumely and the boys of the Inter
laken school that Dr. Rumely ex
pressed himself to me on the subject
of German military efficiency .
Saw Value in Boys' Walks.
"There is wonderful educational
value," he said, "for boys in tramps
about the country like this. My friend,
Harrington Emerson, the efficiency
engineer, told me that his whole
career was shaped by a trip, when a
boy, with his father in the wake of
Von Moltke's army. What impressed
him was the thoroughness and com
pleteness which the German plans for
the advance on Paris had been de
veloped and carried out "
At one time the Interlaken school
had nearly 150 students. The list f
its patrons who sent their boys
there to be educated reads like a sec
tion of the directory of directors.
Through these boys Dr. Rumely came
in contact with many of the parents,
men of large affairs, many of whom
were greatly impressed with the bril
liancy of the young pedagogue's mind,
his enthusiasm and his energy.

troops that the Americans are not

"That's not the man," she whis
pered to General Swallow.
"Then it must be the fellow in the
front room," he answered, leading the
way to another door. Peggy, ventured
inside, moving very cautiously. Over
at one side she saw a soldier. As
she entered he turned around. It was
the spy.
Peggy had almost expected this
when she found that there were two
men in the mill.
"I d advise you to get awav the

to tne Doy.

quivered. "I wouldn't do it if father

spy, grinning evilly to himself.
Peggy understood what had hap
pened. The spy had come across the
young soldier and had persuaded him
to desert, just as lie had tried to per
suade Ben and Bill.
"If they catch me, they'll do some
thing terrible," called the bov.

she couldn't budge the heavy, rusty

the window she saw Bill and Ben ad
vance toward the mill. The spy raised
his pistol menacingly.

helps to capture the spy.)

this limited sector, acquitting them

group of the enemy broke into this
position, but none left it alive. No
more positions were entered. Ameri
can troops were beginning to gain a
real reputation among the seasoned
French troops for their counter at

men have unbounded confidence in
the doughboys at all times and when
action calls for the counter attack

the youthful Americans will get a

to me today. "Americans are not yet

back. This spirit is magnificent- but
hardly prudent when faced with over
whelming numbers of the enemy."
