Why We Are at War With Germany 
 
 Told in the words of President Woodrow Wilson 
 
 IT is a fearful thing to lead this great peaceful people into war, into the 
 most terrible and disastrous of all wars, civilization itself seeming to be 
 in the balance. But the right is more precious than peace, and we shall fight 
 for the things which we have always carried nearest our hearts — for democracy, 
 for the right of those who submit to authority to have a voice in their own 
 governments, for the rights and liberties of small nations, for a universal 
 dominion of right by such a concert of free peoples as shall bring peace and 
 safety to all nations and make the world itself at least free. To such a task 
 we can dedicate our lives and our fortunes, everything that we are and every- 
 thing that we have, with the pride of those who know that the day has come 
 when America is priviledged to spend her blood and her might for the prin- 
 ciples that gave her birth and happiness and the peace which she has treasured. 
 God helping her, she can do no other. — From the President's address to Con- 
 gress asking a declaration of war on Germany, April 2, 1917. 
 
 It is plain enough how we were forced into the war. The extraordinary 
 insults and aggressions of the Imperial German government left us no self- 
 respecting choice but to take up arms in defense of our rights as a free people 
 and of our honor as a sovereign government. The military masters of Ger- 
 many denied us the right to be neutral. They filled our unsuspecting com- 
 munities with vicious spies and conspirators. * * * * They 
 sought by violence to destroy our industries and arrest our commerce. They 
 impudently denied us the use of the high seas and repeatedly executed their 
 threat that they would send to their death any of our people who ventured to 
 approach the coasts of Europe. * * * * What great nation 
 in such circumstances would not have taken up arms? Much as we had de- 
 sired peace, it was denied us, and not of our own choice. This flag imder which 
 we serve would have been dishonored had we withheld our hand. 
 
 For us there is but one choice. We have made it. Woe be to the man or 
 group of men that seeks to stand in our way in this day of high resolution 
 when every principle we hold dearest is to be vindicated and made secure 
 for the salvation of the nations. We are ready to plead at the bar of history, 
 and our flag shall wear a new luster. Once more we shall make good with 
 our lives and fortunes the great faith to which we were born, and a new 
 glory shall shine in the face of our people. — From the President's Flag Day 
 address, Washington, June 14, 1917. 
 
 For myself, I am ready, ready still, ready even now, to discuss a fair and 
 just and honest peace at any time that it is sincerely proposed — a peace in 
 which the strong and the v/eak shall fare alike. But the answer, when I 
 proposed such a peace, came from the German commanders in Russia, and I 
 cannot mistake the meaning of that answer. 
 
 I accept the challenge. I know that you accept it. All the world shall 
 know that you accept it. It shall appear in the utter sacrifice and self-for- 
 getfulness with which we shall give all that we love and all that we have to 
 redeem the world and make it fit for free men like ourselves to live in. This 
 now is the meaning of all that we do. Let everything that we say, my fellow- 
 countrymen, everything that we henceforth plan and accomplish, ring true 
 to this response till the majesty and might of our concerted power shall fill 
 the thought and utterly defeat the force of those who flout and misprize what 
 we honor and hold dear. 
 
 Germany has once more said that force, and force alone, shall decide 
 whether justice and peace shall reign in the affairs of men, whether right 
 as America conceives it or dominion as she conceives it shall determine the 
 destinies of mankind. There is, therefore, but one response possible from us: 
 FORCE, FORCE TO THE UTMOST, FORCE WITHOUT STINT OR LIMIT, 
 THE RIGHTEOUS AND TRIUMPHANT FORCE WHICH SHALL MAKE 
 RIGHT THE LAW OF THE WORLD AND CAST EVERY SELFISH DOMIN- 
 ION DOWN IN THE DUST— From the President's address at Baltimore on 
 the first anniversary of our entry into the war, April 6, 1918.

Americans Terms of Peace 
 
 'President Wilson names the Fourteen Conditions which the United States holds 
 to be the only possible Program of The World's Peace. 
 
 On September 18, 1918, President Wilson replied officially to the proposal 
 of Austria-Hungary for a non-binding conference of the belligerent nations 
 on terms of peace. This was his reply: 
 
 "The government of the United States feels that there is only one reply 
 which it can make to the suggestion of the Imperial Austro-Hungarian gov- 
 ernment. It has repeatedly and with entire candor stated the terms upon 
 which the United States would consider peace, and can and will entertain no 
 proposal for a conference upon a matter concerning which it has made its 
 position and purpose so plain." 
 
 These are the terms to which the President referred, as laid down in his 
 address to Congress defining the nation's war aims, on January 8, 1918: 
 
 "The program of the world's peace is our program, and that program, 
 the only possible pr-ogram, as we see it, is this: 
 
 "1. Open covenants of peace, openly arrived at, after which there shall 
 be no private international understandings of any kind, but diplomacy shall 
 proceed always frankly and in the public view. 
 
 "2. Absolute freedom of navigation upon the seas, outside territorial 
 waters, alike in peace and war, except as the seas may be closed in whole or 
 in part by international action for the enforcement of international covenants. 
 
 "3. The removal, so far as possible, of all economic barriers and the 
 establishment of an equality of trade conditions among all the nations con- 
 senting to the peace and associating themselves for its maintenance. 
 
 "4. Adequate guarantees given and taken that national armaments vnll 
 be reduced to the lowest point consistent with domestic safety. 
 
 "5. A free, open-minded, and absolutely impartial adjustment of all 
 colonial claims, based upon a strict observance of the principle that in de- 
 termining all such questions of sovereignty the interest of the populations 
 concerned must have equal weight with the equitable claims of the govern- 
 ment whose title is to be determined. 
 
 "6. The evacuation of all Russian territory and such a settlement of all 
 questions affecting Russia as will secure the best and freest co-operation of 
 the other nations of the world in obtaining for her an unhampered and un- 
 embarrassed opportunity for the independent determination of her own politi- 
 cal development and national policy and assure her of a sincere welcome into 
 the society of free nations under institutions of her own choosing; and, more 
 than a welcome, assistance also of every kind that she may need and may 
 herself desire. The treatment accorded Russia by her sister nations in the 
 months to come will be the acid test of their good will, of their comprehen- 
 sion of her needs as distinguished from their own interests, and of their 
 intelligent and unselfish sympathy. 
 
 "7. Belgium, the whole world will agree, must be evacuated and restored 
 without any attempt to limit the sovereignty which she enjoys in common 
 with all other free rations. No other single act will serve as this will serve 
 to restore confidence among the nations in the laws which they have them- 
 selves set and determined for the government of their relations with one 
 another. Without this healing act the whole structure and validity of inter- 
 national law is forever impaired. 
 
 "8. All French territory should be freed and the invaded portions re- 
 stored and the Avi'ong done to France by Prussia in 1871 in the matter of 
 Alsace-Lorraine, which has unsettled the peace of the world for nearly fifty 
 years, should be righted, in order that peace may once more be made secure 
 in the interest of all. 
 
 "9. A readjustment of the frontiers of Italy should be effected along 
 clearly recognizable lines of nationality. 
 
"10. The peoples of Austria-Hungary, whose place among the nations 
 we ■«vish to see safeguarded and assured, should be accorded the freest oppor- 
 tunity of autonomoi^s development. 
 
 "11. Roumania, Serbia, and Montenegro should be evacuated; occupied 
 territories restored; Serbia accorded free and secure access to the sea, and the 
 relations of the several Balkan states to one another determined by friendly 
 counsel along historically established lines of allegiance and nationality, and 
 international guarantees of the political and economic independence and ter- 
 ritorial integrity of the several Balkan states should be entered into. 
 
 "12. The Turkish portions of the present Ottoman empire should be 
 assured a secure sovereignty, but the other nationalities which are now under 
 Turkish rule should be assured an undoubted security of life and an absolute- 
 ly unmolested opportunity of autonomous development, and the Dardanelles 
 should be permanently opened as a free passage to the ships and commerce 
 of all nations under international guarantees. 
 
 "13. An independent Polish state should be erected which should include 
 the territories inhabited by the indisputably Polish populations, which should 
 be assured a free and secure access to the sea, and whose political and economic 
 independence and territorial integrity should be guaranteed by international 
 covenant. 
 
 "14. A general association of nations must be formed under specific 
 covenants for the purpose of affording mutual guarantees of political inde- 
 pendence and territorial integrity to great and small states alike. 
 
 "In regard to these essential rectifications of wrong and assertions of 
 right we feel ourselves to be intimate partners of all the governments and 
 peoples associated together against the imperialists. We cannot be separated 
 in interest or divided in purpose. We stand together until the end. 
 
 "For such arrangements and covenants we are willing to fight and to 
 continue to fight until they are achieved; but only because we wish the 
 right to prevail and desire a just and stable peace such as can be secured 
 only by removing the chief provocations to war, which this program does 
 remove." 
 
 America's Peace Creed 
 
 As Stated by President IVdson in an Address to Congress, 
 February 11, 1918 
 
 "The principles to be applied in any comparison of views are these: 
 
 "First — That each part of the final settlement must be based upon the 
 essential justice of that particular case and upon such adjustments as are most 
 likely to bring a peace that will be permanent, 
 
 "Second — That peoples and provisions are not to be bartered about from 
 sovereignty to sovereignty, as if they were mere chattels and pawns in a game, 
 now forever discredited, of the balance of power; but that, 
 
 "Third — Every territorial settlement involved in this war must be made 
 in the interest and for the benefit of the populations concerned, and not as a 
 part of any mere adjustment or compromise of claims among rival states; and, 
 
 "Fourth — That all well-defined national aspirations shall be accorded the 
 utmost satisfaction that can be accorded them without introducing new or 
 perpetuating old elements of discord and antagonism that would be likely in 
 time to break the peace of Europe, and consequently of the world. 
 
 "A general peace erected upon such foundations can be discussed. Until 
 such a peace can be secured we have no choice but to go on." 
 
The ^^Irreducible Minimum'^ 
 
 In President Wilson's speech at Washington's Tomb on July 4, 1918, he 
 stated the war aims of the United States and her allies as follows: 
 
 "These are the ends for which the associated peoples of the world are 
 fighting and which must be conceded thern before there can be peace: 
 
 "1. The destruction of every arbitrary power anywhere that can sep- 
 arately, secretly, and of its single choice disturb the peace of the world; or, 
 if it cannot be presently destroyed, at the least its reduction to virtual im- 
 potence. 
 
 "2. The settlement of every question, whether of territory, of sovereign- 
 ty, of economic arrangement, or of political relationship, upon the basis of the 
 free acceptance of that settlement by the people immediately concerned, and 
 not upon the basis of the material interest or advantage of any other nation 
 or people which may desire a different settlement for the sake of its own 
 exterior influence or mastery. 
 
 "3. The consent of all nations to be governed in their conduct towards 
 each other by the same principles of honor and of respect for the common law 
 of civilized society that govern the individual citizens of all modern states 
 in their relations with one another; to the end that all promises and covenants 
 may be sacredly observed, no private plots or conspiracies hatched, no selfish 
 injuries wrought with impunity, and a mutual trust established upon the hand- 
 some foundation of a mutual respect for right. 
 
 "4. The establishment of an organization of peace which shall make it 
 certain that the combined power of free nations will check every invasion of 
 right and serve to make peace and justice the more secure by affording a 
 definite tribunal of opinion to which all must submit and by which every 
 international readjustment that cannot be amicably agreed upon by the peoples 
 directly concerned shall be sanctioned. 
 
 These great objects can be put into a single sentence. What we seek is 
 the reign of law, based upon the consent of the governed and sustained by the 
 organized opinion of mankind."

 The Co^ of the War 
 
 The two most expensive wars in history prior to the present war were the 
 Napoleonic wars and the American Civil war. The Entente allies expend each 
 month as much as the aggregate cost of the Franco-Prussian war. The cost 
 of the Napoleonic wars could be paid for six times from the expense of the 
 war to the allies in the year 1917 alone, and the Civil war could be paid for 
 over four times. This may give an idea of the importance of this war when 
 it is considered what a prominent part the Napoleonic and Civil wars played 
 in the destiny of Europe and America.

The figures for 1918 are not yet obtainable. Here are the figures for the 
 
 year 1917, and for the four years from August 1, 1914, to December 31, 1917: 
 
 1917 1914 to 1918 
 
 United States $ 6,700,000,000 $ 6,700,000,000 
 
 Great Britain 12,500,000,000 26,250,000,000 
 
 France 6,800,000,000 19,600,000,000 
 
 Russia 6,400,000,000 17,700,000,000 
 
 Italy 2,900,000,000 5,850,000,000 
 
 Small nations 1.750,000,000 5,550,000,000 
 
 Entente Allies $37,050,000,000 $81,600,000,000 
 
 Germany 9,350,000,000 23,750,000,000 
 
 Other Teuton Allies 5,600,000,000 16,400,000,000 
 
 Central powers $ 14,950,000,000 ? 40,150,000,000 
 
 Total for all $ 62,000,000,000 $121,750,000,000 
 
 Estimated cost to Oct. 1, 1918 $160,000,000,000 
 
 It should be emphasized that America's loans to her allies since she en- 
 tered the war are not included as direct expense in the above table. 
 
 Co^ of Other Wars 
 
 Napoleonic wars, 1793-1815 $ 6,250,000,000 
 
 Crimean war, 1853-1856 1,700,000,000 
 
 American Civil war, 1861-1865 8,000,000,000 
 
 Franco-Prussian war, 1870-1871 3,500,000,000 
 
 Boer war, 1900-1902 1,250,000,000 
 
 Russian Japanese war, 1904-1905 2,500,000,000 
 
 World war, 1914 to Oct. 1, 1918 (estimated) 160,000,000,000 
 
 Despite the tremendous expense so far entailed, the resources of the United 
 States have not yet been scratched to pay for the war. Until we have raised 
 $80,000,000,000 by loans we will not have suffered a financial burden as rela- 
 tively severe as Great Britain's. The following tables leaves no doubt of that. 
 
 Wealth of The Nations 
 
 In this table the relative wealth of the United States and its most import- 
 ant allies is compared together with that of Germany. Against these figures 
 the national debt in each case is contracted. 
 
 Est. Debt Per cent of 
 
 Est. Wealth Close of 1917 Debt to Wealth 
 
 United States $230,000,000,000 $ 5,615,000,000 2.4 
 
 Great Britain 86,000,000,000 30,300,000,000 35.2 
 
 France 62,000,000,000 22,200,000,000 35.8 
 
 Germany 76,000,000,000 31,000,000,000 40.8 
 
 It is unnecessary to emphasize that the cost of this war exceeds anything 
 ever seen in history either in terms of human life or money. Nevertheless the 
 degree to which it exceeds the cost of former wars, and the comparative cost 
 to this country against that for our allies who have paid it for four years, is 
 illustrative of the importance of American assistance in the fight for human 
 freedom. 
 
 Casualties of The War 
 
 It is impossible to give an exact estimate of the total losses to all the 
 belligerents since the war began, but competent observers estimated in 1917 
 that the total casualties were between 18 and 20 million men. Germany early 
 in 1918 admitted that her casualties approximated 5,000,000, Taking figures 
 such as these as a basis, the following would appear to be a careful estimate 
 of the losses to Oct. 1 1918: 
 
 Wounded 
 Dead and Missing Total 
 
 Germany 2,000,000 4,000,000 6,000,000

 The Liberty Loans 
 
 America's four liberty loans will produce about two-fifths of the money 
 needed to carry on the war, while taxation will produce the other three-fifths. 
 The nation has responded nobly to the call for money to support the war ac- 
 tivities of the government. The number of subscribers to the First Liberty 
 loan was approximately 4,000,000; to the second nearly 10,000,000, while it was 
 estimated that 17,000,000 persons purchased bonds of the fourth issue. Here 
 are the figures on the first three issues: 
 Issue Amount Rate % Oversubscribed 
 
 First $2,000,000,000 3% $1,035,000,000 
 
 Second 3,000,000,000 4 1,617,532,000

 What it Costs to Feed and 
 Clothe a Soldier 
 
 According to figures given out by the Quartermaster's department it costs 
 almost three times as much to feed an American soldier today as it did in the 
 Spanish-American war. The cost in 1898 was 12.81 cents a day. Now it is 32 
 cents. The ration is a fixed standard, and accordingly the cost figures have 
 mounted in recent years. 
 
 15 
 
It costs $156.30 to equip an infantryman for service in France. The cost 
 is divided as follows: 
 
 Clothing, etc $101.21 
 
 Eating utensils, etc 7.73 
 
 Fighting equipment 47.36 
 
 Total $156.30 
 
 Soldiers' Insurance 
 
 Perhaps no branch of the military or naval establishment of the United 
 States is so little understood by the public which it directly affects as the 
 bureau of soldiers' and sailors' insurance. The benefits of the law are available 
 to all members of the army, navy and nurses' corps. A short summary of some 
 of the main features of the law follows: 
 
 Premiums for a $10,000 policy begin with $6.30 per month at ages 15, 16 
 and 17; increase to $6.40 per month for the ages 18, 19 and 20; $6.50 per month 
 for the ages 21, 22 and 23; $6.60 per month for the ages 24 and 25; $6.70 per 
 month for the ages 26 and 27; $6.80 per month for the age 28; $6.90 per month 
 for the ages 29 and 30; $7.00 per month for the age 31, with progressive in- 
 creases for the ages above those given. The minimum amount of insurance 
 that may be carried is $1,000. 
 
 The compulsory allotment to a wife or children from a soldier's or sailor's 
 pay, which is separate from the insurance, is not less than $15 per month, and 
 shall not exceed one-half the pay. In addition, the government pays monthly 
 allowance as follows: 
 
 Class A. In the case of a man to his wife (including a former wife di- 
 vorced), and to his child or children: 
 
 (a) If there be a wife but no child, $15. 
 
 (b) If there be a wife and one child, $25. 
 
 (c) If there be a wife and tv/o children, $32.50, with $5 per month addi- 
 tional for each additional child. 
 
 (d) If there be no wife but one child, $5. 
 
 (e) If there be no wife but two children, $12.50. 
 
 (f ) If there be no wife but three children, $20. 
 
 (g) If there be no wife but four children, $30, with $5 per month addi- 
 tional for each additional child. 
 
 Class B. In the case of a man or a woman, to a grandchild, a parent, 
 brother, or sister: 
 
 (a) If there be one parent, $10.

 Army Insignia 
 
 The uniform of the United States Army stands for Democracy, and is 
 therefore almost the same for all ranks from private to general. The only 
 way a civilian can tell an officer and his rank, therefore, is by his insignia, 
 that is, the badges, buttons, braids, hat cords, etc, he wears. 
 
 An ordinary private wears no insignia of rank, but a first class private 
 in the Engineer corps. Hospital corps. Ordnance department, Quartermaster 
 corps, or Signal corps, is entitled to wear the design of the department to which 
 he belongs, 
 
 A lance corporal wears on his sleeve an inverted V-shaped bar. A cor- 
 poral has two bars, and a sergeant three bars. Below the sergeant's three 
 
 17 
 
inverted bars appear a number of additional marks, indicating his duties. A 
 first sergeant has a diamond-shaped mark; the stable sergeant has a device 
 representing a horse's head; the color sergeant has a star; the battalion 
 quartermaster sergeant has three horizontal bars; the chief trumpeter has one 
 bar and a bugle device, and so on. Cloth devices such as those just described 
 sewn on the sleeve are known as chevrons. 
 
 Insignia of Rank 
 
 Rank of commissioned officers is shown by various insignia on the shoulder 
 loops of coat, on the sleeves of coats and overcoats, on the collars or shirts, 
 and by hat-cords. The most important are those made of metal and sewn on 
 shoulder loops and shirt collars. Here are the specific devices: 
 
 General Four stars. 
 
 Lieutenant General Three stars 
 
 Major General Two stars. 
 
 Brigadier General One star. 
 
 Colonel Silver eagle 
 
 Lieutenant Colonel Silver oak leaf. 
 
 Major Gold oak leaf. 
 
 Captain Two silver bars. 
 
 First Lieutenant One gold bar. 
 
 Hat Cords 
 
 The hat cords of generals are gold; those of other officers are gold and 
 black. Another mark of an officer is a band of brown braid about three inches 
 from the end of the coat sleeve. On overcoats the braid is sewed on in loops, 
 except that of general officers, who wear two black bands of braid. The hat 
 cords designating the different branches of the service are as follows: 
 
 Infantry Light blue. 
 
 Cavalry Yellow. 
 
 Artillery Scarlet. 
 
 Medical Maroon. 
 
 Adjutant general's, inspector general's, and Judge Advocate General's 
 departments, dark blue. 
 
 Engineer Corps Scarlet and white. 
 
 Signal Corps Orange and white. 
 
 Quartermaster Corps Buff. 
 
 Ordnance Department Black and scarlet. 
 
 The number of the regiment to which each man belongs is on the collar of 
 his coat. The number of regiments formerly of the Regular Army begin with 
 the figure 1 and run to 100; those of regiments in the National Guard begin 
 with 101 and run to 300; those of regiments in the National Army begin 
 with 301.

 Facts Concerning Camp Grant, Illinois 
 
 More than one hundred and fifty thousand fighting men, highly trained, 
 perfectly equipped and flaunting a battle morale drawn from the :n?cturesque 
 Kishwaukee hills where Blackhawk laid down warfare rules f"^. Yanji^es to 
 follow, represent Camp Grant, Rockford's army city, on.the American front m 
 France. They constitute the essence of national service, the sum and sub- 
 stance of success, wrought in one short year in the mammoth military ma- 
 chine ra^-sed as thoucrh by mae:ic at the doors of the Forest City. 
 
 In June, 1917. the vast cantonment which is now a home for fift^ thou- 
 sand <!elective soldiers, evistpd only as a vague preriaredness plan, "s site, 
 ?oS^hlv bounded bv Rockford's citv limits on the north, the timber-lmed Rock 
 r?ver on the west and the vir^^n hills of the wind^n^ Kisbwankee riv^r on the 
 south and east, held a score of peaceful farms and was known as one of the 
 <;cenic show places of the northern Hh-pois river country. Its natural beauty 
 Sale facilities, ideal soil and healthful surroundings won ^"^ta^t ^Jl^^^f^^ 
 from the experts in the government location board which toured the state ,„ 
 search of a cantonment site. Col. C. S. Richie, engmeer of the Central De- 
 partment Lieut Col. James M. Phalen. veteran army surereon, and others of the 
 bSrrcame ?o Rockford, enjoyed the hospitality. of ^^F'^^^^l' ^1^;^^!:^ 
 which was then launchinor its masterly campaign which won the cam_n tor 
 Rockford, viewed the location and went away perfectly certain of their Wash- 
 higton report. It remained for J. H. Camlin. president, WH Barnes, chair- 
 mfn, Adam Gschwindt, R. S. Chapman, W. C. Sparks E. H. F^^J^^' .^«" ^„X^' 
 Ross Beckstrom, of the C. of C. cantonment committee, to invade Washington 
 in a frontal attack and win the camp for the city. 
 
 Secretarv of War Baker was prompt in deciding for the city when he was 
 shown Rockford's clean moral record, and recognized the splendid co-operation 
 
 2S 
 
which has marked city and camp progress from the first. The committee 
 returned and Mr. Barnes, working day and night, secured a blanket lease 
 on 2,250 acres of camp land, farmers evacuating their homes and accepting 
 a nominal rental for their land. Then one thousand five hundred and twenty 
 army buildings sprang up behind the march of fifty thousand workmen, who 
 formed the first construction army and the dream was a reality. A second leas- 
 ing campaign brought an addition of 3,405 acres into the camp proper to make 
 room for barracks areas, the three thousand capacity base hospital, mile- 
 long parade ground, quartermaster industrial city, remount station, maneuver- 
 fields and 300-target rifle and machine gun ranges. A third campaign for 
 land has brought the total camp acreage in September, 1918, to a grand total 
 of 5,656 acres with an option on 1,200 additional acres of Kishwaukee river 
 land for an enlargement of the rifle range and a second army of construction 
 is working out a $7,000,000 program of additional building to meet the growing 
 army demand. Within a m.onth the camp population will exceed sixty thou- 
 sand men. 
 
 Sixteen Rockford business men made the vast acquisition of government 
 plan possible by the purchase outright of farms, making up the heart of the 
 army city and leasing the land to the government at its own price. At present 
 negotiations are going forward for the government purchase of all the camp 
 land and the Rockford syndicate has offered to sell Uncle Sam its holdings 
 at the purchase price without a cent advance in valuation. In all likelihood 
 Camp Grant will be a permanent army post for universal military training. 
 
 Major D. H. Sawyer v/as first in command of Camp Grant. As construct- 
 ing quartermaster he put through the miracle of building which met the 
 national demand for army training. Major Able Davis, commander of the 
 Third Battalion, First Illinois Infantry, shared commanding honors in the 
 early days when his unit guarded the construction work. Then military 
 preference leaped to its climax in the arrival of Major General T. H. Barry, 
 organizer and commander of the Eighty-Sixth Division, National Army. With 
 him cam.e Regular Army leaders of the first water, including Brigadier 
 Generals C. H. Martin, L. W. V. Kennon, whose death in Camp Greene was 
 recently mourned by the entire arm.y, G. LeR. Irwin, Colonels C. R. Howland, 
 C. E. Stodter, G. G. Palmer and brother officers of long regular standing. 
 The great training period, which not only sent one of the greatest of all 
 National Army divisions to the front, but supplied thousands of trained men 
 for other units during the winter of 1917-18, is now history. General Barry 
 launched it and was replaced temporarily by General Kennon when the original 
 commander toured France on inspection. General Martin won his two stars 
 on his camp record and took permanent command of the "Blackhawks" when 
 General Barry was returned to duty in the Central Department. He is leading 
 the Illinois and Wisconsin fighters on the western front. 
 
 In its short year of existence Camp Grant has broken a host of American 
 military records. Nothing has seemed impossible. One hundred thousand 
 patriots celebrated Independence Day in camp with Secretary of War Baker 
 speaking from the boxing ring, where American soldiers wrung the military 
 boxing title from Canada. A like audience commemorated the French national 
 holiday and watched an entire division in the first great field maneuver, 
 review and parade on record. The 161st Artillery Brigade broke another 
 record in its march completely equipped to Sparta, Wis., a distance of 210 
 miles for range work. The camp has led the National Army in boxing, in 
 traming methods, in men transferred and in health. Lieut. Col. H. C. Michie, 
 commander of the base hospital has established and maintained the lowest 
 sickness and death record of any National Army cantonment. 
 
 With the departure of the Eighty-Six Division in August, Camp Grant 
 was transformed into an infantry replacement machine and one of the prin- 
 ciple training places for infantry officers. Five thousand students will form 
 the personnel of the Central Training Camp, hundreds graduating each month 
 into commissioned ranks. The army has adopted Grant's form of personnel 
 classification methods, her form of development for unfit recruits and many 
 of her specialist training devices. 
 
 Among the influences working to this big success are the Y. M. C. A., 
 with eight recreation buildings constructed in camp; the War Camp Com- 
 munity Service, a wholesome power working for soldiers in the camp zone, 
 the Y. W. C. A. with its hostess houses in the reservation; the Knights of Co- 
 
 24 
 
Iambus with its recreational facilities in camp; the Red Cross with its inestim- 
 able service in the cantonment, the Jewish Welfare association and other 
 co-operative bodies. — (J. L. Jenkins.) 
 
 Rockford, Illinois 
 
 At no time in the history of Rockford, Illinois, has its importance among 
 the communities of the United States and the world been so marked as it is at 
 present (September, 1918.) When the original founders of what is now 
 Rockford paddled down the creeks and rivers in 1834 and established their 
 settlement at the junction of Kent Creek and Rock River, possibly they held 
 no dreams of such a nature as would warrant them in believing that their 
 initial venture would ever develop into what is now the present City of Rock- 
 ford. While Rockford for many years has been noted as a manufacturing 
 center throughout the various industrial communities of the world, it remained 
 for the coming of Camp Grant, one of the Government's great troop training 
 centers, to bring Rockford into real prominence. The establishment of the 
 military reservation in the door-yard of the city marks the beginning of a new 
 epoch in its history. For this great advantage and its accompanying respon- 
 sibilities the city is indebted to a small group of its citizens, representing the 
 Chamber of Commerce. 
 
 Since the day the first troops began to arrive at Camp Grant, Illinois, 
 the name of Rockford has gone out over the country and the world as the 
 home of one of the greatest military schools of the United States. A few 
 months prior to this writing when Uncle Sam had, according to his published 
 reports, nine hundred thousand fighting men in France, it was giving out that 
 over one hundred thousand of them, or one-ninth, were the direct product of 
 training at Camp Grant, Illinois. When it is taken into consideration that the 
 United States has sixteen cantonments of a similar nature, together with some 
 thirty flying schools, national guard camps, and various other training depots, 
 these figures may be considered as of the utmost importance relative to the 
 position that Camp Grant, Illinois, holds in the military department of our 
 Government. 
 
 It is to the everlasting credit of the Rockford community that it has been 
 able to give the Government such splendid service in the way of co-operation 
 with the training of troops for overseas duty. At this time attention should 
 be called to the fact that the Government is now engaged in enlarging the 
 facilities of Camp Grant by the expenditure of over $7,000,000 in money, 
 making of it a cantonment with a capacity of between sixty-five and seventy 
 thousand men. Health statistics relative to the welfare of men training at 
 Camp Grant take the highest place among the schedules of all army camps of 
 the country. It has been officered by some of the War Department's highest 
 ranking authorities. It has sent into the fray military units of the highest 
 standard, who are today making their presence felt on the fighting fronts in 
 Europe. 
 
 While Rockford is inclined to look to the coming of Camp Grant as the 
 beginning of a new epoch, it must treat the same event as the closing of an 
 industrial and financial epoch of almost equal importance. At the time it 
 was assured that Camp Grant would be located at Rockford, the city was on 
 the highway to unbounded success from an industrial and commercial stand- 
 point. Nothing so accurately indicates the real stability of a commercial or 
 industrial community as its bank clearings. In 1908 the total for the year 
 amounted to $31,221,374. Beginning with 1908 the ensuing decade marked 
 a steady and gradual progress in the volume of moneys handled by Rockford 
 banks. By the time 1917 had drawn to a close the bank clearings of the city 
 had trebled, the 1917 total being $93,845,620. In the intervening eight months 
 since the close of 1917 the clearings have indicated the same steady and gradual 
 increasing month after month. It is safe to predict at this time that on the 
 31st of December, 1918, the bank clearings in Rockford will show a total close 
 to $115,000,000. 
 
 Nothing has so implanted confidence in Rockford in the minds of the 
 people of the country as a whole as its ability to discharge the responsibilities 
 imposed on it by the exigencies of the times. With virtually 350 busy indus- 
 
 26 
 
tries engaged in their normal tasks of supplying a large share of the world's 
 
 trade in a thousand different articles, it took but a few weelcs to utterly trans- 
 form them into national service munition factories. At the time of this writ- 
 ing a large percentage of the factories in Rockford are engaged in producing 
 war materials. In fact some of the greatest of Rockford's industries are 
 producing nothing but war materials. The patriotism of its industrial leaders, 
 the loyalty of its working classes and the subservance of capital to the dictates 
 and requirements of the national government, stand out today as the most 
 striking features of Rockford's contribution to the successful prosecution of 
 the war. — (Rockford Chamber of Commerce.)

I WOULD therefore urge that the 
 people continue to give generous 
 support to their schools of all 
 grades, and that the schools adjust" 
 themselves as wisely as possible to 
 the new conditions to the end that 
 no hoy or girl shall have less 
 opportunity for education because 
 of the war, and that the Nation 
 may "be strengthened as it can only 
 "be through the right education 
 of all its people. 
 
 Cordially and sincerely yours ,

 is 1009^0 loyal to the war measures
