Notice how insignificant the war
seems today when compared with the
Iowa City Ames game?
"Iowa can furnish an army OF 1858,

Iowa isn't going to do it except under
the stress of actual need. There's too
much corn to husk and were going to
feed lot of cattle this winter.
Maurice Connolly is mentioned as
candidate for governor. Has Maurice
finally given up all hope of job
abroad?
Philadelphia beat woman suffrage in
Pennsylvania. All the rest of the state
went for votes for women except six
counties. How many counties in Iowa
will go against the amendment? Make
your bets.
But at that this bloodthirsty Roose-
velts military program lacks much OF
the tierceness of the Wilson plan.
Still making states of delegates to
the national convention? But remem-
Der that states are fragile things and

Mrs Voter when she gets the chance
will get out to the polls often enough
TO make things embarrassing to the
man who thinks enforcement of safety
laws mad for business.
Senator Borah's nationality is lit
tie hard to guess from his name but
he acts considerably like Greek gov
eminent. The longer Italy stays in the
war the less we hear of her.
Mentioning Mr.. Harding for the vice
presidency the Sioux City Journal re-
marks that the rule is for the candidate
to serve as governor first. An right

Clifford Thorne isn't going 70 the
eastern job and says he hadn't been
offered it. Very well then. The old

willing to keep it.

AN Sorts of OpinienI
saIvationist War.TheoIoay.

| There are something like 10000 Sal
vationists in the British army, 10000
OF them outand- cutters and 10000 adj
herents. These figures are furnished
| to Mr. Harold Begbie by Bramwell
Booth, the present head of the Saliva
ton Army. Some are naturally trou-
bled in their souls by having to kill.
One of them mentioned this difficulty
and another Salvationst made an
swer: Look here, what you've got ia
do is this: you've got to do your duty
to God and king and country. If, in
the course of doing that duty, you hap
pen to kill your fellow man. that's no
affair of yours Mr. Begbe, who in
terviewed the head Salvationist for the
I London Daily Chronicle. reports him
as declaring that the war his strength
ened the spirit of internationalism,
and hence affected the international
character of the Salvation Army:
Turnout the neutral nations there
is a fresh enthusiasm for the army:
and in Germany itself the Salvation
Army is expressing a renewed loyalty
to the international idea. Some of the
relief work in Germany is administered
thru the Salvation Army, and aitho
the German government has naturally
called up a great number Of our Ger
man people, still they have left a con-
siderable body of men whose services
in the administrations of charity
feeding starving children and so on
are felt to be valuable. In Belgium all
our officers, with only two exceptions.
are at their posts. Meetings are held.
relief work is going on; but the meet
irgs are now of strange character
t. efx
pie can't summon up enough joy to
sing 1t moves me to tears"
Mr. Booths characterization is per-
haps illustrated by his analysis of the
causes Of the war:
Wars come about thru a certain
state of society It's no use saying
Germany wants world dominion. Ev-
cry nation wants something very much
like that. Every nation In its policy
affirms the heretical principle of ma
terialism. Almost everybody you meet
is descended from some humping vik-
, ing, No; men Of all nations. our own
as well as others, have forgotten God.
| They are materialsts. They don't be-
lieve in the divine They are after
prosperity, and their only god is Nam
men. Nothing can save them but a
return to God Men say that after the
war all will be changed, and when you
press them you find they are speaking
OF political changes-socialism. and
the rest But there's an old saying in
the north Of Scotland. new boat. old
rocks. No political changes can bring
the millennium. No ipternationalizing
of labor can prevent strikes and wars.
What you want in your boat. new or
old is captain: and unless you have
got the Almighty on the bridge you'll
go to pieces on the very same rocks
which made shipwreck Of your former
state"

family puts upon widow with chill
dren. Judges generally have not con-
sidered the law as q legal loophole
whereby delinquents might be kept al
home but as a just debt Of public
assistance to those who are doing the
greatest public service-maintaining a
decent home for their children.
Settle the matter. If the construc-
ton of the judge at Sioux City hap
pens to be technically proper fix the
law to admit Of no question as to its
purposes and intent. There is no real
question of it's righteousness and its
usefulness.

Sailors B.ik on Pajamas.

Sailormen have their own ideas as to
fashion. and have refused to adopt tho
pajama, according to the Army and
Navy Journal. Two years ago 100000
pairs Of pajamas were provided for the
enlisted men of the navy, it being as
sumed that the bluejackets would like
the innovation. Some sailors used them
to work in while coaling. and some for
underwear, but the department has now
given up the attempt to male this ar
ticle Of wearing apparel popular, and
will sell the remaining stock to the
highest bidder.

Tn. Violation of Greses.

The allies have landed troops upon
Greek soil. They have invaded the
neutral territory of one Of the Oldest
nations Of the world. Greece is little

but in vain. Will the American news

did against the German invasion OF

soci.li.tic M.rri.s. and Divorce.


New York-Bouck White, pastor OF
told his congregation yesterday that he
tomorrow in which Jersey City cou-
pie would be united as husband and
wife only as long as they loved one
another and no longer. If love end
ed then it would be matter for the
divorce courts.
Speaking of Miss Daisy L. Johnson,
of No 179 Winfield avenue. and Vic
tor A. Kilian, of No. 1852 Griffith street,
Jersey City, the two who are going to
be married, Mr.. White said:
II express gratitude to couple who
have the idealism to see the need for
new freedom in marriage and the
courage to carry 1t out"
But before Pastor White began to
speak OF the socialist marriage he
said that the Catholic church's atti-
tude toward divorce was "a sign that
its people merely account marriage a
breeding institution-a union only OF
the body and not of the soul. Adam
and Eve had no divorce problem be-
cause they were united only on the
plane Of breeders
Then he painted a picture or Tur-
key, from which country he has just
returned, as suffering from an inva-
sion Of Germans who are stealing the
love of the Turkish women. those wo-
men who have been so closely guarded
by the Turks for ages, who have been
forbidden to speak to man upon the
street and who have worn over their
faces wells OF mystery and secrecy. He
limited at the complications that this
might bring
1.-THE Turkish woman is beginning
20 feel the feminist sweep" he said.
"In Constantinople the veil is becom-
ing thinner about her face, and the
coming of the German into Turkey Is
already producing some of those COM
plications which become political.
The Turkish women are attractive,
and they are finding the German Of
f1cers attractive even beyond the
charm of their own men. The Ger
man in Turkey is being regarded as
quite the latest thing in love affairs.
..Our marriage rite. by openly rec
ognizing divorce. is safeguard
against divorce. Marriage is joyful
event says our ritual 1 shall tell the
young man and young woman whom
marry tomorrow.
"'You have come to me as the
leader OF this church, that l may unite
you in matrimony. 1t is incumbent on
me- however, in all candor to inform
you that no word may speak or rite
that I personally may celebrate Is or
power to bring that stae of AFFAIRS
to pass. Marriage is an interior
uniting, or it is not marriage. A
joining OF spirit to spirit alone can
make you husband and wife. Because
Of forgetfulness of this fact more than
one marriage has come to disastrous
termination The divorce courts tes-
tify that marriage consecrated only by
exterior celebration is no marriage but
a mockery and a sorrow. Where love
is not. marriage is not.
NO clergyman has the right 70
bind a man and a woman together SO
long as life shall last. Neither we'd
ding day solemnities nor offices OF
earnest friends nor all the power OF
heaven itself shall be Of potency to
keep together two souls that are not
themselves resolved to be one. There
fore, II the marriage here beginning
Is to be permanent y.ou yourselves
must make 1t permanent"

"a month after the wedding presents
have been surrounded by moth balls.
Love Is all right in it's place. but
whenever It usurps the seat Of the
safety razor and plain home cooking
there is bound to be lack of har-
mony which can be heard by every
neighbor in the block. Despite the
limited supply Of bridegrooms, by the
exercise of little foresight woman
will be able to find one that will fit
into the home like an octagon rug in
