Without Honor

Judging by the experience Of the U. s. and
Argentina, nations still having German ambassa-
doris in their midst had better arrest them on sus
picion.
German autocracy has no conception of right
humaneness, or law in warfare and knows not
what honor is in dealings with other peoples with
whom it is at peace
To put down such an element is not only the
necessity but also the duty of civilization, and
talk of making an agreement with it is sheer
drivel

A Funny Peace Term

One of the latest German peace terms being
talked about in Washington is amusing anyhow.
1t is the restoration of Belgium and Northern
France to be paid for out of the sale of Germanys
colonies to Great Britain.
Germany's colonies are very largely Great
Britain's now and they are about the poorest in
vestment that any nation could hold, at any time
When Great Britain consents to pay what Ger
many owes Belgium and France, wake us up.

WOMAN'S WAR SERVICE
IN AGRICULTURE

Among the 100000 suffragists now
mobilizing for war service, in response
to the call to the colors by Mrs. Carrie
Chapman Gait, president of the Ma
tional American Woman Suffrage AS
ISOLATION, work on the soil Seems to
be popular. The women are putting
their accustomed suffrage initiative
and energy into the organization Of
hoe and spade brigades-by no means
neglecting their suffrage work as they
dig and plant.
With the cooperation of State and
Federal authorities, already eight
states are In the vanguard for agrt-
cultural work.
Connecticut suffragists are setting
apart patriotic lots" for every rural
and small town league. Upon a farm,
eight miles from Greenwich, belonging
to Miss Ryan and Miss Runtz-Rees,
will be established the Fairfield
County Camp Farming School. Here
an eight weeks course in practical
farming and care of stock is to be
given.

WOMAN SUFFRAGE
A CONSERVING FORCE

Falling in line with the offer OF war
service made by the National Ameri-
can Woman Suffrage Association to
the President Of the United States,
various state suffrage associations
have called their members into real
and practical service.
The first act of the president of
the Nebraska State Suffrage Associa-
ton, Mrs. w. E. Barley, was to line
up her members In suffrage thrift
clubs. Many Nebraska home-makers
have been in the habit Of ordering
in the summer, the winters supply
of vegetables and fruits from their
local grocers. This year the state
suffrage organization Is awakening its
members to the fact that Nebraska
women can raise and put up their
own foodstuffs, and so free the pro-
duce of the canning factories for ex-
p~ortation or for the army, wherever,
IN fact. 1t will b most needed
