The mems meeting in the Lutheran
church on Thursday evening resulted
in the organization of a Lutheran
Brotherhood. Short spirited addresses
were made by several men of the
church. The ideals and aims Of the

great deal of enthusiasm. The follow
ing officers were elected: G. NJ. Wann,
president; r. S. Maxwell, vice pres
ident; Hugo Kohl, recording secretary;
Clarence J. Smith, corresponding secre-
tary; C. w. Reeder, treasurer. These
officers will be publicly installed at the
morning service on Sunday, February

ter roll of the Brotherhood will be left
open for little while so that all men
may have a chance to enroll as charter
members.

much of the talked of emptiness

the world over as the premier granite
producing state. And yet, it would not
be entirely proper to designate Vermont
as the Granite state because Vermont
has other products which entitle her to
highest distinction; and it would not be
treating those other great industries
fairly to insist on robbing New Hamp-
shire of its ancient distinction. There
fore the Biographies will continue TO
call New Hampshire the Granite state
and cause the public to wonder why, in
asmuch as New Hampshire is not now
adays listed with the states producing
the most granite. As for Concord's right
to claim the title of Granite city OF New
Hampshire, we leave that to New HaInp
shire granite towns to fight it out among
themselves. We suspect that Milford
might have something to say about that
narrowed distinction.

mo AMERICANS KILLED"--SITUA
TION UNCHANGED.

II does not lessen the enormity of the
offense against international law or the
insouciance of the affront to the United
States that no American lives were lost
in the explosion which partially wrecked
the cross channel steamer Sussex, provid-
ing, of course, it is certain that the ex-
plosion was caused by torpedo from a
submarine of Germany or Austria.
austria can well be eliminated from
consideration in the present instance as
the scene of the disaster is so far re-
moved from any Austrian naval base.
IL was merely fortuitous circumstance
if none of the score or more Americans
travelling on the Sussex was lost. The
intent of the crime was there. The in
tent was to destroy the ship and all the
human beings that the ship carried.
That the Americans escaped was their
good fortune, not due to any discrimina
ton on the part of the submarine max
ing the attack. Therefore, while a meas
ure of relief comes to all patriotic Ameri-
cans that no Americans lost their lives,
there is no diminution of the seriousness
of the crime itself, for it is nothing short
of crime to attack a commerce ship
which is engaged in peaceful business
even though it may be operating in wa
ter zones in which war is being carried
on. Particularly is it crime when such
attack is made without warning to stop
having been given by the attacker and
thus without giving the steamer chance
to stop and save the lives of the passen-
gers innocent OF wrong-doing, In the
light of history these offenses will be Civ
en- their proper places as among the most
despicable acts which human beings are
capable of performing
