FATE OF OUR EMPIRE

KIPLING'S VIVID PICTURE London, June 22. Mr. Rudynrd Kipling, at a recruiting meeting at Southport, gave a vivid picture of Britain's fate if she fails to achieve victory. Ho divided the world into two sections, one of human beings, the other of Germans. "Whatever horrors have been dealt out to Belgium and Poland, Britain's fate will be ten times worse. There are special reasons in tho German mind why wo should be morally and mentally shamed and dishonoured beyond any other people. "If Germany is victorious, every refinement of outrage within the compass of the German imagination will be inflicted. The alternative of victory is robbery and the rape of our women, with starvation as the prelude to' slavery. "The present conflict is a war to the death against the powers of darkness, with whom peace, except on o\ir own terms, would bo more horrible thaji any war. Germany has already suffered three million casualties; and she can suffer another three million for the dominion of the world. It seems to me that Germany must either win or bleed to death almost where her lines run to-day. Therefore wo and onr allies must continue to pass our children through tho fire i jitil .Moloch shall perish."
