President Wilson's peace note may OF meet with favor n the haunts
of some OF the European a lords, with the concerns that have grown
rich and are growing richer through the possession of stupendous MUM
tions contracts O with those who ae specializing in war-brides, but it
will meet a responsive chord in the hearts of the LEI in the trenches
and the great mass of the common people of the United States who are
paying tribute and being taxed to the utmost by the mercenaries who
control the food supply of the nation.
The note of President Wilson will not end the "a abruptly; there
re too many obstacles to surmount, too many deep-rooted prejudices to
overcome and too many preliminaries to arrange. However, it is the
entering wedge. which will widen and spread as its purpose and sincerity
become more generally known. Like seed planted in fertile soil its roots
will strike out in every direction till finally it will combine such dynamic
energy that the demand for cessation of hostiities will become irresis-
tb1e.
In presenting his note and plea at the present moment President
Wilson has given to the world, IS the San Francisco Examiner so fit
tingy observes, "a Christmas message second only in its Joy and good
ridings to that message with which the herald angels rejoced the earth
on the night when He, who is the Lord of the Christmas, lay a newborn
babe in Bethlehem town.

given, and we'll does the noble message of peace and good will. harmonic

AT CHRISTMAS TIME

oh bells, today let warfare cease,
Ring out this birthday of the King,
And tell us of that glorious morn
When Christ was in a manager born.
And wise men came from lands afar,
Led by the glory of the star
That heralded His birth, to pay
Meet tribute that first Christmas day,
While angels sang, DER Bethlehem's hill,
BE Peace on earth, to men Good Will.
Ring happy bells, DER plain and hill
Ring loud, ring clear, ring sweet, and fill
The souls of those who pause to hear
With reverent thought and Christmas cheer.
Swing wide the hearts closed door, and say
Come in!-all men are kin today!
Come income in! Clasp hands, and break
The bread of friendship for the sake
Of Him who anne on earth to find
His brothers in all humankind"
Ring, happy bells, the earth around,
And girdle it with gladdest sound,
And, while we sing His birthday in,
Let Christ-and Christ is love-begin
His reign of peace, and men shall say.
This is indeed a Christmas day.
Your hand, my brother! Lo afar
Behold the radiant Bethlehem star
And hark!-the angels singing still,
BE Peace on earth, to men Good VIII.

TRIBUTE TO DANIELS

Justice to a member OF the presidents official family is Eve looked
for and may seldom be found in a Hearst paper. Therefore it is with
peculiar pleasure that we reproduce the following beated tribute to Sec
rotary Daniels, whose altogether proper order forbiddng the use of in
toxnatng liquors on board vessels of the United States navy has been
so severely criticised. Says the Examiner:
when Secretary of the Navy Josephus Daniels issued his famous
order abolshng drink or Uncle Sans ships O. "a there "a quite a gen.
eal protest among navy officers, and the public, who felt that Secretary
Daniels had done much that a for the detriment of the navy and its
discipline, was inclined to put the non-drinking order down as one OF
his minor bunders.
But already it has developed that, instead of a blunder, that no.
drink order was a wise act and a brave one. The very officers who dis
agreed with it or sneered at it in the first days of its enforcement 10Y
are unanimous in agreeing that they and the navy generally art Far better
off without liquor of any kind, and for once the muchridiculed Josephus
Daniels has come in for widespread praise. The ship of wa is far too
complicated a machine to be handled by drunken men
The cheap wits of the daily press have made great capital of Secre-
tay Daniels order, but experience has proven the wisdom of the secre-
tary, who had the nerve to do the right thing and the manhood to stand
to his gun when attacked by all the force of calumny and rdicule which
his enemies could muster, not only in the matter of forbidding the use
of liquor. but in many matters of far graver import.
Foremost among his assMlants have been the Hearst publications.
Let ush hope that the ability to see clearly in this instance augurs the
removal of at least a portion of the cataract' that has obscured the vision
of the Hearstan hordes-San Francisco Star.

FORMER FILM ACTOR
BECOMES A SOLDIER

From the movies to the army is the
experience of Henry Goebbele of Bill
Lotto, Ariz., who has signed with Cor
poral Hans Hansen, local recruiting
officer of the United States army, for
field artillery service and who for sew
eral years has been doing duty as a
moving picture actor in the west. Dur
ing the winter he resided in Geneseo,
where he was engaged the greater part
of his time in breaking horses for rid
ing. Goebbele's career for some years
has been a romantic one, and firing of
it all he will now settle down to army
life.
Before he departed for Jefferson
barracks he turned over to Corporal
Hansen complete cowpuncher's out
fit, including leather snaps, boots,
spurs, cuffs, lariet and a sombrero,
with a rattlesnake skin band. 1t is
one of the finest outfits the corporal
has ever seen, and it was a great
sacrifice on the part of the former
movie actor and cowpuncher to leave
behind long cherished treasures.
Another recruit who enlisted here, Is
Lawrence Winebeck of East Moline,
who will join the cavalry.

OF embalming and services to $25 was
reached by undertakers of Rock Island
county at meeting last evening in the
+. b. Knox parlors in this city. The
agreement was unanimous The mini
mum hitherto has been $40 and SIS.
Boost in fee comes as result of the
increase in prices during the last year
of embalming fluid and materials used
by the undertakers. Prices have ad
vanced, say the undertakers, to point
where there is little or no profit in
cases where the minimum has been
charged, and the increase is made as a
matter of protection.
Every undertaken and assistant hold
ing a state license was present at the
meeting, which also marked the forma-
ton Of the Rock Island County Funer-
al Directors association, an organiza-
ton which includes all undertakers of
the county.

organization have been prepared by
John F. Rose of this city They were
read last evening and were adopted
unanimously.
The constitution is also accompanied
by a code of ethics, object of which is
to elevate the standard of the profess
sion in this county. Purpose of the
organization and a definite set of rules
are also specified in the constitution.
Esterdahl Is President.
First officers of the new organiza-
ton:
President-A. V. Esterdahl of Mo-
line.

Rock Island and Cook are now the
only counties in the state where the

of the association formed last evening
provides that meetings shall be held
the second Wednesday of each month.
At these times, problems which fu-
neral directors and undertakers have
to contend with will be brought up for
discussion. All members are optimistic
regarding good which can be accom-
plished in elevating the standard of
the profession here as result of organ
