Not Always Happy.

It is customary but / think II is Il
mistake, to speak Of "happy" child
hood. Children are often overanxious
and acutely sensitive. Man ought to
be man and master Of his fate; but
children are at the mercy Of those
around them. Mr.. Rarey, the great
horse-tamer. has told US that he has
known an angry word to raise the
pulse OF horse ten beats In minute.
Think then how 1t must affect child !

from the legitimate stage, the producers
had to pay enormous sums; but strangely
enough-and not SO strange either, when
you come to consider the background
from which a good many of the produc-
ing gentry had so lately emerged-they
as class persisted in assuming that
writers of reputation and standing were
persons who were willing to barter away
the products OF their brains for most
puny messes of pottage. In some quar-
tiers the plan most commonly followed
was to steal the authors plots outright;
in others, TO promise him a good deal in
advance, and then, through crafty book
keeping or downright pilfering, TO ehisel
him out of his rightful due of royalties
and profits; in still others to risk lawsuit
and litigation rather than behave with
reasonable fairness toward the men and
women to whom the producers must turn
for themes for their screen dramas; and
in some instances to deal honestly and
honorsbly with members Of the writing
profession

Gen. Won Blume in the semi official
North German Gazette.
There is no possible criticism TO be
made of head held erect; indeed, under
all circumstances calling for an upright
position it is much TO be desired. But
why should a German general need TO
gaze at his eountry's foes with eyes
full of eontempt"y II would not be
worth while to ask this question if con-
tempt for Germany's enemies were con-
fined to one general, but il seems to be
characteristic of the Prussian military
caste to gaze with contempt in all direc-
tions. In the same spirit of contempt
Prussisn army officers in peace times
knocked mere civilians off the sidewalks
in order that their own lordly progress
might not be impeded. Somehow, in spite
of their great professional ability, Ger
man generals, colonies, majors and cap
tains from top to bottom Of the officer
class, have impressed one as being the
most detestsbly supercilious and AFRO
giant set in the world.-Springfeld Re

shoulder, with the French and the Brit.
ish; and more soldiers and still more
soldiers are being prepared TO join their
eompatriots in the struggle to break the
kaiser's arbitrary, insolent and unholy
purpose. We have passed from the stage
of speculative participation in the war
into the stage of aetuality. Soon our
casualty lists will be blended with the
casualty lists of our allies. We shall
sacrifice as our allies have been sacrific-
ing. And is il too much TO hope that
we shall share their honors alsof We
army and in their commander-in-chie
We know that Americans already in the
war have fought bravely and well. We
know that the American traditions have
stood for hard, honest fighting. II is not
too much, then. to expect that the Amer
lean army now gathering on French soil
will acquit itself creditsbly, even nobly,
in the cause of right and Justice. May
.killful guidance and stout heart ae
company them as they go into battle.
The people back home will be with them
IN spirit, always hoping for the best and
lt the same time sending that material
support which viii soon be needed so
much. The whole nation has a quiet con
idence in the outcome OF the approaching
.tr,Igrle. terrible as it may be.
The Barre daily times. (Barre, Vt.) 1897-1959, 1917-06-28

A conservative guess about the num-
Der of American soldiers (of the regular
army now on European soil would place
the number at $4,000. Biased German
report had it that the first contingent
of American soldiers to land in Europe
numbered 5000 men, but it is reasonable
to expect that the number was deliber-
ately misstated because of the effect that
a belittling report would have on the
German people. When the word was first
passed around in this country that Amer
lean regulars were on their way to Eu-
rope, it was asserted that the number
was from $4,000 to 10000. That was
over ten days ago. Since then, it is rea-
sonable to expect, other transports have
been sent on their way with more men,
Taking these details into consideration,
it seems likely that there are at least
$4,000 men already landed. This is the
nucleus for the great army which the
United States is preparing to send to Eu
rope. Germany will have opportunity to
change its sneer about the size of the
American army sent to aid our allies, |
Just as it was forced to change its con-
temptuous references to the British army /
at the outset of the war
