New York, August .12. Theodore.
Roosevelt, with characteristic force,
has endorsed the ; nation-wide move
ment against (he "yellow does" who
ore aiding the enemy by spreading
Germun made stories and demoraliz
ing lying rumors.
in a loiter addressed to the na
tional deputy at headquarters of the
Anti-Yellow Dog club, in New York
City, our ex-presldent amplifies the
slogan of the Anti-Yellow Dog Clubs,
which is "Free Speech, Yes! Free
Lies, No!" and lends his moral sup
port to the object of (he clubs which
is to make every corner of America
100 per cent American, by awaken
ing the people to the treachery of
the Hun propagandist who is using
the mouths of thoughtless Americans
to spread the gospel of the kaiser.
Mr. Roosevelt says:
Mr. Chas. J. Giegerich, deputy,
Anti-Yellow Dog club,
730 7th Ave., New York City.
Dear sir:
1 wish you all good luck in your
efforts to start the Anti-Yellow Dog
clubs, it is the duty of tho Ameri- j
can people to put this war through
to a finish. It is our duty to insist
upon a 100 per cent Americanism,
in this land and to tolerate no divid
ed allegiance. It is our duty to back
up the government In extending the
draft, i:i encouraging and insisting
upon the speeding up of our war
plane program, our field gun. program
and every other industry connected
with the war and to back it up by
sending the greatest possible number
of our soldiers abroad until we get
an army on the fighting line, bigger
than the combined lines of France
and Kngland. It is pur duty to stand
by every public servant who effi
ciently, fearlessly ami patriotically
does his duty ulong these lines.
It is no less our duty to fearlessly
oppose any public servant who fails
in any point to perform such duty
This isn't any one man's war, and
It isn't any government organization's
war. It's the war of the American
people. It's their duty to insist that
all their servauts carry It on with the
highest efficiency. :
With all good Wishes,
Faithfully yours,
(Signed) Theodore Roosevelt.
' The establishment - of Anti-Yellow
Dog clubs throughout America, is the
result of the suggestion in "The Yel
low Dog" by Henry Irving Dodge, the
well known author of "Skinner's
Dress Suit" and "Skinner's' Big Idea."
In "The Yellow Dog" Henry Irving
Dodge applied his genius for writing
subtle comedy to the serious work of
the moment and in the humor of hi3
latest 'work of fiction, he pointed the
way to completely suppress German
propaganda.
With poignant wit he christened the
American who repeats the lies of the
kaiser's agents, a "Yellow Dog" and
then showed how the yellow dog
could be made to change color by the
application of ridicule in the hands
of the "Thoroughbred American Pup,"
a term he affectionately applied to
the loyal American boy.
This idea has solved the problem
of suppressing verbal disloyalty and
thousands of clubs have already been
formed throughout the country. In
many instances Anti-Yellow Dog
clubs have been formed under the di
rect supervision of the heads of great
manufacturing companies whore it
has had the effect of ferreting out
tho deliberate agitators in the ranks
of the workers.
OLD ENGLISH TOWN
FULL OF YANKEES
By United Tress.
An English Channel Port, July 25.
(By mall.) This is a city of Amer
ican soldiers.
In pre-war days not far from here
the German kaiser used to spend an
annual holiday', racing yachts while
close by stands the headquarters j
rrom where British royalty raced lis !
boats.
: Today Its different. ;'" '
Huge guns, dotting the crests of
green, grasBy hills, other guns hid
den away but ready to blazo forth on
a second's notice, and numerous al
lied destroyers would all join enthu
siastically in a belching roar of gun
fire if one of the kaiser's boats should
show it nose here now.
An Old English Town!
Rack of all these strenuous forti
fications stands one of the oldest
towns in England. It is a relic of the
days of the feudal barons, and a part
of the stone wall which surrounded
the city then still stands.
But instead of remaining a quiet
provincial town it has been turned
into a lively, hustling American com
munity. "
Since Uncle Sam was goaded into
a scrap with Prussianism many tons:
of thousands of Yankee fighting men
have made this town their temporary
headquarters.
Transfer to France.
This is one of the chief American
embarkation ports whence our boys
are transported to France. Every
second or third . person one meets
wears Uncle Sam's uniform. Ameri
can flags fly everywhere. Pretty pro
vincial girls stroll arm in arm with
the doughboys, and vie with one an
other iu showing them a good time.
Thousands of Yankees line the
docks, waiting to board transports
for France. At a dock one sees a
huge transport from Argentine, un
loading horses. Later these will be
sent to France.
Further out to sea one of the now
ambulance training shi;is Is seen,
coming In from France. It carries
wounded Americans and Tommies.
. A long line of thousands of Ameri
cans marches through tho streets to
the embarkation office to prepare to
leave the next day. The inhabitants
here call it the "endless line."

Sugar may bo served only with
puddings and cocoa. The. reason It
happens to be permitted with cocoa
is that when the present restrictions
were drawn up there was no cocoa
in the country. Consequently, it was
not mentioned among the non-sugara-ble
beverages. Now there is plenty
of cocoa and the law does not forbid
serving sugar with it.
