BY BERTON BRALEY

It's a pretty good sort of world
But I'm sick of one place in it,
And I'm off like the dust that is
swirled
To seek for more space in it,;
To wander the east and the west
of it,
To know all the worst, and the
best of it.
It's a wonderful world and there S
so much to see of it
So much that's novel and
strange,
That / want to know all there
may be of it;
| want to be footloose to range,
The near and the far and-the
whole of it,
Till maybe, In time, | shall get,
A hint of the mystical soul of it.
But now-now it's time to move
on,
For the SAVIOR of this place is gone
And my heart is athrob and
afret
For the road like a ribbon I'M
furled
Its a pretty good sort of a
world
But I've not seen enough of II
yet.

sternly to task for their imagin-

the cadets was reactionary STEP
He declared that if a counter-rev-

There is no doubt counter

Orekhoff's speech was severe

OCEAN GROVE, N. j., Aug. 20.
SHOULD A WOMAN CONTIN-
UE TO LIVE WITH THE HUS-
BAND SHE NO LONGER LOVES?
Is a marriage certificate a mere
scrap of paper?
Is there higher morality that
answers these questions raised by
the divorce granted T. Lloyd
Lewis of Ocean Grove, from his
beautiful 2S-year-old wife?
A dozen Zeppelins, dropping
bombs on this town, could not
have stirred it more. Ocean Grove
is the most religious community
in the United States. 1t is owned
by the Ocean Grove Campmeeting
Association of the Methodist
church. The church Discipline
rules are its town ordinances.
Moves to Another House
The town is surrounded by a
high fence. On Sunday no vehicle
is allowed, nothing can be sold
not even milk for babies, and no
bather enters the ocean. Only its
dozen churches and the big audi
forum are open.
Mrs. Anna Ballard Lewis, the
divorced wife, is the daughter of
DR.. Aaron e. Ballard, 9S, venera-
BILE president of the campmeeting
association, called 1.-The Father OF
Ocean Grove
1.-The man in the case" is an
organist. Mrs. Lewis was a church
singer
In June, 1914, Mrs. Lewis told
her mother she could no longer
live with her husband, because
another man had won her affec-
lions.
Resumption of marital relations
with her husband, under the cir.
cumstances, Mrs. Lewis thought
would be sinful.
So she moved into another part
OF her fathers house twhere the
young couple were living), anC
maintained her own establishment
speaking only formally to her hus
band.

The husband, New Jersey Anti
Saloon League district superinten

ity against his wife, and both hel
father and mother. who testified
against her, declare she has nevel
violated "the moral code"
Mrs. Lewis is sure she has don,

Second, as to Belgium, even
Hans Delbruck and the extreme
anti-annexationists have failed to
recognize Belgium's right to full
restitution, much less reparation.
Even THEY threaten Belgium
with division.
Third, it is certainly German
war plan that the parts of Rus
STA and Poland now held must be
retained.
Fourth, there is the distinct
project of a Middle European en-
pire from the Belgian and Baltic
ports to the Indian ocean.
"What would then be the direct
menace to America?
"Three possibilities would arise,
with British naval power de-
stroyed, and incorporated in that
of Germany.
First they would consolidate
the German empire itself, greatly
enlarged and strengthened. Their
commerce and industrial power
would soon overshadow all rivals.
They would organize their trade
routes thru central Europe, the
Balkans and Turkey, to the Per-
sian gulf, and develop an African
empire.
"In the second place, they
would extend their power to the
Far East and come to terms with
Japan.
But, in the third place-if not
AT ONCE-their expansion west
ward would lead to conquest in
Central and South America AS
the United States has entered the
war, I firmly believe this would
be their first venture.
CIT WOULD LEAD TO AN I'M
MEDIATE VIOLATION OF tn n
MONROE DOCTRINE, A n D
FURTHER ARMED CONFLICT.
BUT THE GERMAN EMPIRE,
MORE POWERFUL THAN EVER,
WOULD BE INVINCIBLL.
81 have reason to know definite
plans for this conflict ARE NOW
ON FILE in the offices of the Ger
man general staff.
"They include attacks on the
coast cities of the United States
and devastating raids on the
interior. This policy could be car
ried on, were Germany now vic
torious, for more years than the
United Stptes could resist.
$50 It is perfectly correct
to say that America is today
fighting not only for the
great principles Of humanity
common to all her aUies, but
also in immediate self
defense"

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 20
Altho the city of San Francisco

there, this will not effect the pro-
posed Labor day strike OF iron
workers, one of the heads of the
Iron Trades Council stated this
afternoon. Even If the men
should decide not to walk out at
that time, he said, it will mean
only a temporary delay. for a
