Gompers, since the very outbreak of
the war. has done heroic work for
the mobilization of labor In the cause
of the nation. Hayward, on the
other hand, has been doing every
things possible to embarrass the gov
ornment and to assist the Kaiser, If
he Is not in the pay of the German
government he ought to be. He Is q
flt candidate for the Iron Cross. The
wonder is that he was not arrested
long ago. and with him hundreds of
those who have been misled by his
Establishments or who are simply
wicked apostles of the traitorous and
anarchistic doctrines he has taught
1t is fortunate circumstance that
the public is given this opportunity
to judge between the loyal, patriotic
follower of Gompers and the traitor
Gus disciple of Hayward.
The patriotism of American labor
Cannot be questioned. 1t is an out
rage that Hayward should have tried
to create the impression that he and
his ilk represent the workers of the
nation.

Education of Germany

Every policy of the German gov
ernment for more than three years
has been based upon the belief that
might alone could prevail. The
atrocities committed in Belgium and
France, the wanton destruction of
cities, the Lusitania massacre. the
air raids on unfortifled cities, the
murder of noncombatants. the at
tacks on hospitals and hospital ships,
ruthless submarine warfare. the
driving of French and Belgian civil
ians into exile. the conspiracies
against the peace and safety of neu-
trals-every act of the German gov
ernment has been dedication of the
doctrine of might.
It is only because might has fail.
ed to prevail that the imperial for
eign secretary begins to realize thai
ii was doomed to fail from the star
and that right also must be consid-
cred in shaping the policies Of gov
ernment.
The education of Germany is 6
painful and costly process, but now
that Junkertum As beginning tc
learn, there is all the more reason
why the instruction should be thor.
ough. When Germany has been com.
PEELED by crushing defeat to under
stand that it is right that make:
might and not might that make:
right, there will be security in the
world for honest people.-New Yorl

Road to L Laughtertown

oh, show me the road to Laughter
town.
For I have lost the way!
I wandered out of the path one day,
When my heart was broken, my hair
turned gray,
And I can't remember how to play;
Eve quite forgotten how to be gay;
It's all through signing and weeping
they say.
Oh show me the road to Laughter
town.
For I have lost the way.
Would We learn the road to Laugh
tertown,
oh, We who have lost the way?
Would We have young heart though
your hair be gray
Go learn from a little child each day,
Go serve his wants and play his
play,
And catch the Tilt of his laughter
gay,
And follow his dancing feet as they
stray:
For he knows the road to Laughter
town,
Oh We who have lost the way!

Souvenirs Which Explode
Something of the direction of his

by Tommy who was exhibiting TO
me some of the treasures he had
gathered in cleaning up a recently
occupied German dugout One Of
these. carefully preserved between
the leaves of a magazine, was the
photograph of what was evidently
German girl, punctured with not
less than dozen bullet holes.
Did you take it from a German
soldier?" 1 asked.
No, SIR" was the reply; "only
from the wall of dugout"
But how did she come to get so
shot to pieces?" 1 asked adding
banteringly: II have never heard
that the British soldier makes war
on women"
But this lady was making war on
us, sir" he answered with a smile
''or leastways, one of 'er friends

which the Germans, who appeared
to have got wind of it in some way.

some of these mural decorations to
mines concealed beneath the floor.
The Tommies had already learned
to avoid stepping on the loose ends
of boards, and to refrain from rock

sequential odds and ends from the
