LONDON, Feb. S.-The Lokalan- zeiger of Berlin, discusses the fight ing qualities of the allied armies. Ac- cording to Reuter- translations, it considers the Walloons to be of slight military value but says that the Elem ish regiments have proved themselves to be worthy descendants of their an cestors who won the victories of Egmont and William of Orange.
 Great Britain's efforts" it adds, although accompanied of course by bluff regarding the creating of a big army proves a will to conquer which we honor in an enemy"
 The French soldiers, the Lokalan- zeiger says, have proved a surprise. "We have seen" it proceeds, "little of the supposedly French theatrical hero ism and reckless braving of every danger. On the contrary they have displayed estimable and praisewOrthy military qualities. Their field artil- lery consists of good guns and per form excellent work and at their head stands an army commander who though he has won no decisive victory has secured a name in the list of most famous generals"

How MANY Plowings :

Has the BILLY Sunday campaign which has
been concluded in Omaha finished this part of
the program, leaving the follow-up work to be
done by the regular church agents, or is It but
the forerunner OF a succession OF REVEALS by
lesser evangelistlc lights and imltators OF the
great soul saver? This question is prompted by
"a message" for the readers Of the Sunday
School Times, published in Philadelphia, sent by
"Rody" through the local correspondent OF that
periodical, in which he says:
zone OF the great results OF Mr. Sundays work
Ia preparing the field for other evangelists Com
and Nebraska have had for being immune TO
gestic effort Ohio had such reputation but since
Mr. Sunday visited Youngstown Ohio has been a
fertile field for evangelists. So It with the
ern part OF tho country there little call for
gests in the and little resulting from their

VIII be the experience. sure. in the points go

they WILL only those cities but all the surrounding
country will be influenced and for years will

We observe that revival meetings are already
being held in a number OF other Nebraska towns
in which evangelists of smaller note are doing
the recruiting for an association OF churches
organized along the same lines as that behind
the Sunday revival in Omaha. And with the
example set here, we have no doubt they will
meet with a corresponding measure of success
But as for Omaha, we take II that the numerous
churches, with their all-the-year-round pastors
are equal to the task they have assumed, and
that Omaha will not stand in noed OF another
religious revival for at least some little time to

Sex in War Times.

Discussion OF the case OF Nurse Cavell, ex-
ecuted at BRUSSELS by the German military
authorities after being convicted Of assisting
belgian and British soldiers to escape from the
military hospital. Is beginning to take on the
form OF sex division. The futilty Of this is so
apparent as almost to dlsarm debate. In the
case of Miss Cavell she sought no consideration
because Of sex. In her own words, quoted by
tn associate who has reached England, she
would nurse the wounded but would not be-
come their jailer." She thus assumed an atti-
tude OF hostility to the Germans, natural enough
for a high-spirited English woman. but placing
Ter within the purview OF the militarys control
Tier admissions on trial showed her offenses
against the military law to be even greater than
her accusers had been able to prove This
made the case against her so clear that the
penalty could not be avoided
So far as protection for her because OF her
sex is concerned, in what position would the
adoption OF such rule leave the military?
Would II not quickly result In the secret service
of the governments engaged in the war being
turned over to women. who would be immune
when taken prisoner Our instructive chivalry
revolts at the thought of sending a woman TO
face firing squad. Just as II does at the thought
Of woman engaging in any of the activities of
war; But We have many notable instances OF
the part played by women in war time both on
the battle line and In the more dangerous work
of spies, and these women realize they are BRAY
ing death In their undertakings.
Nurse Cavell was inspired by high sense
OF loyalty and duty to her country. and for
feited her life as the result. She apparently
did not seek immunity because OF sex while
living. and her manner OF death ought to be a
source OF pride and comfort to her friends.

A notable example OF speedy. straightforward
business dealing with injured community is
furnished by the Santa Fe Railroad company in
settling the claims growing out OF the oil tank

most OF the personal injury and death claims

In process Of settlement.
The method of adjustment combines sim

five disinterested citizens, agreeable to both
sides, determined the damages and the company
laid out the money. Death claims were deter

like manner personal injury damages were deter

Popular Government is Party Government


The decisive defeat OF the constitutional
amendment for so-called non-partisan elections
in California indicates that the people Of that
state, widely known for extreme radicalism, are
not ready to attempt the dubious experiment OF
alolishing party government. The fact is that
Popular government everywhere is party govern
nlent. not only in this country but in other coun-
tries as well, for the only strictly non-partisan
governments in the world are the autocratic gov
ernments in which the people have voice. SO
far as human experience goes, the only way to
make popular government effective is through
the agency Of political parties and the only open
question is whether those parties should be per-
manent, representing fixed principles and defin-
tie policies, or whether new party alignment
based on the particular emergency should be
created for every election.
BY the popular verdict just rendered, Cali
fornia people have decided that they want to
stick to the old established political parties which
mean something, and which be held respon-
sible when entrusted with power and that they
do not want TO take a chance with irresponsible
"hit-or-miss" personal government, which is Of
questionable effectiveness. except possibly within
certain limited fields, such the judiciary and
the administration Of purely local units.
