Jersey Justice .?
counts

Jersey Justice, sometimes model for
states East and West, seems to have gone
sstray in West New York and missed the
Recorders Court completely in recent
case.
As to the defendant, citizen Of that
community, whose arrest was caused by his
remarks concerning his adopted country
and flag, the Recorders decision may have
been just. 1t is possible that the defendant
was Inundated by being compelled publicly
to wave the Stars and Stripes above his
head, to kiss that flag, to proclaim his al
legiance to it.
But it is not justice to the flag nor to the
ration. The more the Recorders decision
Inundated the prisoner the less were
homage and respect shown to the flag, the
less was the punishment in accord with ma
tional dignity.
The picture presented by German
American waving the American flag at
the command of court, however humble,
in the land he has affronred is too nearly a
picture Of high school initiation ceremony
to make this brand Of justice popular
model.

The Roll Of Honor, June |, 1916

JFrom the Poetry RevteO Of London
Between the rolling sea and rolling cloud
The longships blazed abroad eher battle
light,
Our Viking fathers. filed with fierce delight,
Fell, and a shout Of triumph sounded loud.
They fought for fame, for conquest or for
wealth.
But, last and best, they sought heroic death,
Upon the home seas, in the home winds
breath,
Rather than ease and life borne down by
stealth.
Beyond the mist, above the battle fame,
Their souls Jared forth TO seek the ways
untrod,
To sail those seas that on the gates OF God
Beat the long cadence Of hero's fame.
And you who sail the same gray, mist-bound
seas,
Who know the Same wild torch OF fiery red
That waves in clsmor DER the deathless
dead,
Do your wild beating hearts sxult with these?

Battle Song of the Fusiliers Marins

From the French by William Rose Ben6t.
The fusiliers in blue stride by,
Thrilled with glory and the open sky,
Erect with pride but gay they're found
Who tramp with songs of the wine OF
France!
Above their brave exuberance
Sound, trumpets, sound!
What means the Huns assaulting line7
Women in tears-the stupid swinel
Ambuscade and pompous boast
But raise your faces, drawn with fear,
The fusiliers in blue are here
The horns Of host.
The caissons rumble therebelow
To free the world of the worlds worst foe
Of thieves that long have burst all bound
Through the shrapnel-hail goes the Tri-
color,
And the blue fusilers will win this war.
Sound, trumpets, sound!
Sound. trumpets, sound for those who fall
Over the dead like a glittering pail
A wind of glory sweeps the ground
Blows on our brows All, the Prussians
reel,
And the blue fusilers go up with steel,
And the trumpetS sound.

Truth and American History

1t would do every American good to
read a little volume written by an Ameri-
can business man, Charles Altschul, and
called "The American Revolution in Our
School Text Books" The work is no at
tempt at historical higher criticism. Nor
does the writer waste his time stamping
on harmless myths as do so many Of our
wise young revisers Of the past. He sets
himself a very simple but very valuable
task-that of analyzing the school his
tories of America to find out how they
treated one small specific and undoubted
question of fact in our Revolutionary re-
lations with Great Britain. Thereby he
hoped to find clew looking to the ex-
PLANTATION of the American attitude toward
England.
There can be no question of the wide
spread American antipathy to England
The feeling has deserved stronger word
in some individuals and a weaker in
others. In general it bears a very close
resemblance to that cousinly dislike which
exists in so many families. 1t is largely
unreasoning and usually based on very
scant present day intercourse. But II
exists Enthusiastically, and there is no sense
in pretending that it does not. Mr.. Alt
schul conceded its existence and went to
work to explain it. The hypothesis with
which he started was the following:
1t has occurred to me that the explanation
of this phenomenon lies in the way IN
which facts of history, specifically studied
without due regard TO surrounding circum-
stances, determine our views in later life;
especially if lodged in that mysterious
storehouse, "the subconscious," during
childhood, when the spirit in which instruc'
ton is given leaves more indelible mark
than do the facts themselves. Impressions
gained during the early years of school life
may possibly have had a far-reaching infu-
ence in instilling q prejudice against the
country whose control We repudiated IN the
Revolutionary War. Such prejudice once
engendered would be very likely to distort

Call Out the Flappers
From The Detroit Journal


Among the multitudinous proposals for
speeding up the war is one which commands
the enlistment of the fappers-the young
women Of that exhlarating age which lies
between maidenhood and getting a sure
enough beau. They are said 10 constitute %
per cent Of the feminine population.
The service expected Of the fappers Is that
Of pinch hitting for young men at the front.
They are to do what cubs in the Offices do,
what the fedglng just out Of college is toll
Grated for what the bosses know must DO
cone, but what irritates them the most to
pay to have done.
We are inclined to favor the scheme
simply because there is time drawing dis
nally near when a good deal Of the JOY is
Going TO be taken out Of the lives of bald
heads and gray boards We refer to that JOY
they get from teasing the whippersnappers-
sending them for crosseyed spectacles, &C
cusing them Of stealing the left-hand drink.
ing cups, putting them at figuring, for the
sake Of checking up the bills, the cubic ca
racity of electric light globes. Who can
take the place of these fountains Of merri-
ment? We had been thinking that no one al
all could. And then comes along this sug-
cestion for the utilization Of the army OF
fappers. 1t is an inspiration from heaven.
Hasten the calling of the conscripts!

there are no words strong enough now to
characterize Justly the Kaiser's record OF
cruelty and inhumanity. He enslaved Bel
GUM, though pledged by treaty to main
tain its sovereignty and independence. He
looted and devastated Northern France
committing infamies which will make the
German name accursed in that region fol
generations to come. He fired on hospitals
and hospital ships. lie sent Zeppelins to
attack the civilian population of England
He instructed his submarine commanders
&c destroy merchant ships under any and
every flag. Under his orders German
sailors became assassins and pirates. lie
stood by while his unspeakable Turkish
ally did his best to exterminate the help
less population of Armenia.
Are all these crimes, in which he was
either principal or accessory, to be covered
over now by few hypocritical sentences
about the suppression Of "the material
power of arms" by "the moral power of
right? The Kaiser cynically misjudges
the civilized worlds capacity for right
eous Indignation when he lifts his blood
stained hand to Heaven and poses as
convert to the ideas of international JUS
tice and international fraternity. Because
he sees that might has not been able to
overcome right, because Germany has
failed to secure by force, duplicity and
savagery that world domination which has
been her aim for generation past, shall
re be permitted now to reenter the cir
Gle of nations as an equal on the plea that
the ideals of international comfy and
order which they cherish have now become
his ideals?
It is another curious German vagary.
In the German note to the Pope there IS
not single word about repentance, not
whisper about reparation. The outlaw
and outcast is willing to be reinstated IN
a new society Of nations. But only on his
own terms, which include no sackcloth and
ashes on his part for the infamies of the
past.
The German intellect is notorious for
its inability to grasp the point Of view OF
the non-German world. But even so, 1t
should be tolerably clear to the Kaiser
that his protestations to the Pope will
ring false and hollow in every non-Ger-
manized mind. If there is conversion,
there must be the converts zeal to confess
error. If there is repentance, the fruits Of
repentance must follow. What about Bel
GUM and Poland and Serbia? What
about Italia Irredenta and Alsace-Lor-
raine? There can be no JOY on earth over
the hardened sinner who repents merely
in the hope Of thereby holding on TO i'll
gotten gains.
Professions without works are vain.
Until the Kaiser is ready to make repara-
ton as we'll as to admit remorse the world
will attach just as little Importance to his
rreachments about international solidarity
and amity as he himself has attached to
past pledges to live up to such obligations
and relations. When Satan quotes Script

Gather US to thy heart,
Lay us thy spirit bare;
Give us in thee our part,
o Mother young and fairl
Thou art so great, so great,
Thy children are so small,
We cannot guess thy state
Nor compass thee st all
Our spirits yearn and ache
To forge, from these few years,
What soberer peoples make
From centuries Of tears:
Love, like tempered sword,
Glittering forth at needl
We can but pray the Lord
Who knows nor church nor creed,
The Day-spring from above,
The Truth that maketh free:
Give us great hearts to love
A grea. land worthily!
