Whether a strong central government
capable of prosecuting a vigorous cam

| from Paris that the American military
uniform and the Stars and Stripes are
TO be in evidence at the French front, the
men being already there to wear the
one and carry the other. Not only that
but these are Americans who have won
distinction by their fighting qualities on
that front, under the flag of France. The
chain of circumstances under which this
comes about is an altogether happy one,
now that we are actually at war and
our enemies are the enemies of France.
These Americans have been thoroughly
tested under fire, and have proven worthy
of the splendid military genius and ster-
ling friend of America whose name their
organization-th Lafayette flying
squadron--bears. There need be no ques-

Nobody on Earth Got More Fun Out of
Life Than Jesus.

An article entitled my Second Part
ner" in the April American Magazine
gives new and interesting interpre-
tation of the life of Christ as applied to
present day problems. In it the writer
says:
Il don't know how this man of sor-
rows idea came to get so strong
who had better time Of it than he.
The whole story about him is filed with
reference like this. A certain man be-
sought him to dine with him. He al
ways seems to have accepted, and he
wasn't very particular who it was that
invited him. at that. In fact / don't think
any man ever lived who had such
a wide variety of friends Straight laced
Pharisees, and rich men that slipped
around to see him at night because it
wasn't respectable to be seen with him
in the daytime, and fishermen, and pros
titutes, and publicans, and sinners. He
knew them all, they all liked him--and
to get him to the house for a meal was
to score social triumph.
"Why, the very first miracle he did
wasn't done to point a moral or even TO
save a life. II was done Just to save
a poor hostess from embarrassment, to
keep a happy party from being broken
up. He was at a wedding land, by the
way, weddings in those days were about
as care-free and boisterous affairs as you
would want to seel. He was enjoying it
all, and suddenly they came to him and
told him that the wine had given out.
And he performed his first miracle-just
to save a social party.
about the only times he was ever
criticized in public, the criticism was not
because he was too holy or a killjoy.
Not much. He was criticized for having
too good time out of life Don't tell
us you are prophet they said to him;
you spend all your time dining with
publicans and sinners. What sort of a
way is that for a prophet TO act?"

gestion Is in some measure responsible
for the decision of the French war de-
partment to put the Lafayette flying
squadron into American army uniforms
and place the American flag at the head
of that distinctively American fighting
organization.
But it is not alone the troops of the
entente allies that will be inspired and
encouraged, by our flag and our military
uniform, to col inued and increased val

says, that the Americans who consti-
tute the Lafayette flying squadron "have
distinguished themselves at the front"
under the French flag, is it not reasona-
BILE to suppose that they will be spurred
to even greater achievement under their
own, And if they have reflected credit
upon the uniform of the French army,
