Thi rally to the colors does not
.mean a rally to arms, but a rally to
'abate suffering and death by the pre
vention of communicable diseases.
Frequently there is a rallying to the
colors in the front yard and a call for
the physician because of the insani
tary conditions of the back yard. The
tack yarda of many homes and busi
ness places are good breeding places
for. flies.
Clean up the back yard first and
then the front yard. Clean back yards
will teach more sanitation than a
magazine or a newspaper. If the owner,-,
of a village home 13 blessed with
rear land sufficient for a garden
re-is indeed blessed, and for him. one
will not have to caution about taking
more physical exercise. It may truly
t e said that a garden contains more
"life, liberty and pursuit of happiness"
than the declaration of independence
and the boy or girl who comes into
the relation of operator therein has
i heard the "call to the colors."
Again it may be truly said that an
i Insanitary back yard creates an en
vironment that is dangerous to your
health. Some take pride in a beautiful
j clean front yard and at the same time
have an ugly, unclean back yard. The
j back yard in such case has the ad
vantage, for the weeds of insanitation
grow more profusely and rapidly than
: the flowers of sanitation.
; The Florida State Board of Health
desires to make an appeal to all tho
' people of this state to rally to the
; colors of sanitation.

Christiania. Norway, May 29. (Cor
respondence of The Associated
Press.) Moving picture operators on
German submarines at sea are late ad
ditions to the U-boat fleets. Films
are made of merchant vessels sinkings
and taken home to be shown to the
German populace to give an idea of
the dangers of the deep.
.'Details of how a German submarine
of ',the Jarger type commandeered the
big Norwegian steamer Xorefos and
used her as a tow boat for weeks at
at "time In the Atlantic were related
here recently by members of her
crew.
The Xorefos was overtaken by the
German Submarine off the Canary
Islands early this year. Two German
naval officers and fourteen sailora
were sent . aboard as ,a - prije f boat
crew.. . -'
i . .Then the eubmarine departed on a
'pirating expedition, the Germans dn
the Xorefos adusting the wireless ap
paratus so as to be able to keep in
communication with the undersea
boat. On this trip the submarine was
gone eight days and upon her return
to, the Xorefos the sailors heard that
she had been in search of a British
fleet of merchantment from the other
Bide of the Atlantic.
"The submarine then tied up to the
Xorefos for two weeks and the Xore
fos roamed the sea with the submarine
In 'tow, as the U-boat was short of
fuel.. c
H Tha Xorefos soon ran short of fuel
and an effort was made to utilize
green peanuts from the cargo, but
they soon developed a gas which
caused numerous small explosions in
ine zire ooxes ana createa sucn a
stream of sparks through the funnel
that the ship nearly caught fire. So
no more peanuts were used and for
several days the Xorefos wallowed
along with the wind and tide. "When
other ships were sighted the Germans
unfurled the Xorwegian flag.
After another two weeks cruise the
XT-boat returned to her "mother" ship.
After helping themselves to a part
Of the cargo of rubber, the prize crew
returned to the submarine, the Nor
wegians were ordered into lifeboat
and the Xorefos was sunk by three
bombs exploded In her hold. The mo
tion picture operator on the U-boat
todk film records of all the importart
events, starting with the seizure and
the developments of the voyage with
eaeh return of the U-boat to the cap
turned ship.
'The Xorwegian sailors were in life
boats several days, being picked up
by a French steamer and several
weeks ago they landed in Christiana
after an absence of five months.

Germany instigated the "Holy War"
of Turkey to kill Christians in the
Ottoman empire and India. This fact
is revealed by former American Am
bassador Henry Morgenthau in his
reminiscences in the World's Wterk,
Just published. Baron Wangenheim,
the German ambasador at Constanti
nople, told Mr. Morgenthau in so many
. words that Germany's real purpose in
forcing Turkey into the war wa3 to.
arouse Mohammedan fanaticism
against the British and French. Mr.
I Morgenthau says:
In the early days Wangenheim had
explained to me Germany's real pur
pose in forcing Turkey into the con
flict. He made this explanation quiet
ly and nonchalantly, as though It had
been quite the most ordinary matter
in the world. Sitting in his office puf
fing away at his big black German
cigar, he unfolded Germany's scheme
to arouse the whole fanatical Moslem
world against the Christians. Germany
had planned a real "Holy War" as one
means of destroying English and
French influence in the world. "Tur
key herself is not the really important
matter," said Wangenheim. "Her
army is a $mall one. and we do not
expect it to do very much. For the
most part it will act on the defensive.
But the big thing Is the Moslem
world. If we can stir the Mohamme
dans up against the English and Bus
sians, we can force them to make
peace."
What Wangenheim evidently meant
by the "big thing" became apparent on
November 13th. when the sultan is
sued his declaration of war; this de
claration was really an appeal for a
Jihad, or a "Holy War," against the
infidel. Soon afterward the Sheik-ul-Islam
published his proclamation sum
moning the whole Moslem world to
rise and massacre their Christian op
pressors. The sultan's proclamation was an
official public document, and dealt
with the proposed Holy War only in a
general way, but about this same time
there appeared a secret pamphlet
which gave instructions to the faithful
in more specific terms. This paper
was not read in the mosques; it was
distributed stealthily in all Moham
medan countries India, Egypt, Moroc
co, Syria and many others; and it was
significantly printed In Arabic, the
language of the Koran. It was a
lengthy document the English trans
lation contains 10.000 words full of
quotations from the Koran; and its
style was frenzied in its appeal to
racial and religious hatred. It de
scribed a detailed plan of operation:
for the assassination and extermina
tion -otaU Chxistians--except. thoepf
German nationality. . A few extracis
will fairly portray its spirit:
" But the time has now come
for the Holy War, and by thl3 the land
of Islam shall forever be freed from
the power of the Infidels who op
press It. The Holy War ha 3 now be
come a sacred duty. Know ye the
blood of infidels in the Islamic lands
may be shed with impunity except
those to whom the Moslem power has
nromised security and who are allied
with it. (Herein we find that Ger
mans and Austrlans are excepted from
massacre.) The killing of infidels
who rule over Islam has become a
sacred duty, whether you do it secret
lv or orenlv. aa the Koran has de
creed: 'Take them and kill them
whenever you come across them. Ba
hold we have delivered them into your
hands and given you Supreme power
over them. He who kills even one un
believer of those who rule over us.
whether he does it secretly or openly,
shall be rewarded by God. And let
every Moslem in whatever part of the
world he may be. swear a solemn oath
to kill at least three or four of the in
fidels who rule over him, for they are
the enemies of God and of the faith."
"The Holy Way." says this pamph
let, "will be of three forms. First the
Individual war. which consists of the
Individual personal deed. This may be
with cutting, killing instruments, like
the Holy War which one of the faithful
made against Peter Galy. the Infidel
English governor, like the slaying of
the English chief of rolice in India,
and like the killing of one of the of
ficials arriving in Mecca by Abi Busir
(may God be pleased with him.." The
document gives several other instances
of assassination which t,he faithful are
enjoined to Imitate. The believers are
told to organize bands and to go forth
and Iay Christians. The most useful
are those organized and operating in
secret. "It Is hoped that the Islamic
world of today will profit very greatly
from such secret bands." The third
method is by "organized campaigns,"
that is, by trained armies.
