well-filled granaries are testimonies
to q benefcent husbandry. Barren

gest a strange, mysterious story,
In isolated domiciles. and palaces of
fortune an influence, akin to no other
year-time, now reigns with imperial
dignity. No home is too humble to
encompass the inspiration of Thanks
giving; no msnsioH is so, costly as to
exclude the spirit of the hour. Civil
and religious holidays would lack
Significance il they centralized sell
fishness and prompted the citizen to
live wholly within the confines of

BULLY FOR CAPTAIN DUFFY

Hats of to Captain Duffy. Of the
Chemung. who, when n Teuton sub
marine commander ordered him to
haul down the American flag prepar.
atory to having his ship sunk, fatty
refused. He was willing TO go down
with the flag flying; he dared his
captors to come aboard and haul it
down; but neither he nor any of his
crew would do Il.
Maybe Captain Duffy ought to
have taken down the flag. Possibly
there is n precedent or regulation
or q treaty provision somewhere in
the international Law that used to
be something more than scraps Of
paper, pointing such conclusion.
But it's a good guess that II Cap
tain Duffy can be lucky enough to
get himself rcpfimanded for not
hauling down the flag. he, will be
eligible for election to any old office
he wants to run for. without opposi-

CHANCE FOR GRAVE ERROR

The governments of the allied ma
tions confront the chance to perpe-
trate an error that will profoundly
injure their cause, If they shall per.
sist in refusal to grant a safe con-
duct to the newly appointed ambas-
sador to the United States. They
could not possibly gain any adva,;.
tage commensurate with the harm
their cause would suffer on this side.
That they have permitted America
to gather that they will take this
course is evidence that they do not
realize how great a preponderance
of this nations sentiment Is on their
side, or how i'll they can afford to
give such a gratuitious offense to
their friends here.
Interference with trade and mails
has been justified on the ground of
military necessity. and on precedsnts
