SLOWLY REPEATING.

Chancellor Michaelis, of the Ger
man Government, now says that
peace Is impossible if the Allies are
trying to drive a wedge between the
German people and their emperor,
and. also capture German soil. A few
months ago German said that peace
was impossible without indemnities
and certain territorial readjustments
entirely in their favor Thus do the
Teutons slowly recede from their
positions as victors in the war When
Tie great conflict is ended Germany
will admit her defeat and make some
sert of reparation for the damage she
has done. She can never pay back
all. not if the nation gave up every
penny Of its wealth. But. Germany
niust make sacrifices Tor her sins and
suffer the humiliation Of defeat
Gradually the Teutons viii learn to
pronounce the words restoration"

ART ANp MrsIC ZOE EYERYB8DY.


In small cities and towns where
there are no art museums and no
schools OF music, there is great need
for the very things they would sup
ply. There is a way to get them for
the everyday man and woman who
want them without any great expense
or trouble. That way lies through the
establishment of such departments in
the public Libraries, whether large or
small
Many libraries in the smaller cities
already have the beginnings Of very
excellent art and music collections
they have not only boks about music
and art. but collections and musical
scores. mounted photographs and
prints. and these collections are cir
culated just as the books are.
one library has a music room where
borrowers may try over scores if they
wish. The room is sound-proof, so
that patrons in other parts of the liz
brary are not disturbed when the
piano is in use.
Such collections do not have TO be-
gin on a large scale. A small begin
ming would open the way for greater
interest in these things. and the de-
partment would grow as soon as peo-
PIE realized that it was there for
them to use. Every one interested
and able, ought to do his or her share
10 further this branch OF community
education and service.

nEEp AMERICAN SOLDIERS FIT
10 FIGHT.

Keep the American soldier fit TO
fight and help to win the war by
making clean environment around all
military camps" is the slogan on
which is based the campaign OF the
War Camp Community Service
With the campaign well under way
and with the heart of the American
people being aroused TO the vital inn
portance OF proper surroundings for
the men now preparing TO fight the
battles OF democracy. confidence was
expressed by officials Of the service
as to the outcome OF the work.
Although much service already has
furnished the men at the various
camps by the people OF the nearby
cities and towns. vast amount still
remains to be done. It was pointed out
al the national headquarters OF the
service Many Of the smaller towns
near training camps are taxing them
selves to the utmost to care properly
for the men in camps, who many
times outnumber the populations OF
the surrounding communities by tire
or four times
Encouraging reports are being re-
ceived daily from all parts Of the
country showing the spirit in which
America Is welcoming its army. and
il is to encourage this spirit and to
aid the community in the great task
OF providing all sorts of good, clean
recreation for the men in training
that the war Camp Community Serv-
ice has been established.
"The Community Service workers
arc not providing haphazard recrea-
ton but are giving to these men in
training something like unto what
has been taken from them in their
separation from home times. The
Community Service Committee is not
only effeoting direct beneficial results
to us by aiding in the creating of high
moral standards and clean reerea
tion, but indirectly il is influencing
ali classes Of society TO help towards
our desired goal"
AS to the way the men fee% toward
being made Eat home young stu
dent aviator has written letter in
which he says
eve enlisted men here like to be
able to associate with the citizens
Most of the men want dances where
they can meet decent people on a so
oial footing There is no mother, or
wife sweetheart or sister to love
and we want this human fellowship
more than anything else, and it ought
to be supplied us.
