September the Great
Cleanup Month Around
the COuntry's Trees

September is the great month for
pruning and every dead branch of
importance should be attended to.
Tree growers should not prune un-
necessarily, says the bulletin in the
American Forestry Magazine. which
says that as little of the live wood
as possible should be pruned. Make
all cuts close to the trunk or main
limb and cover all wounds with coal
tar.
Remove and destroy egg masses OF
tussock moth and similar leaf eating
insects.
Mark for removal in winter, all
hopelessly infested and dead trees.
You can discern these trees with
greater definiteness before the leaves
drop, but you can cut them down to
greatest advantage in winter.
Plant evergreens during the last
of August and early September. Move
them with ball of soil.
The American Forestry Associa-
tion will be glad TO answer any in
quiries from readers of this paper
that touches upon the care of trees,
plants or birds. Write to p. S. Rils-
dale. the secretary, at 21O-220 Mary

cracy and the doctrines which that
autocracy has been striving to force
upon the world with such monstrous
cruelty and barbaric force.
Door Not Shut
1t had been predicted that the
President would not close the door
to peace, and that the way would
still be open for further suggestions
and negotiations. These predictions
are all shown to have been base
less.
There is only one road to peace,
and that is through a victory ol
democratic principles and the estap-
lishment of democratic standards OF
right and liberty. If this victory can
be achieved through the awakening
of the German people to sense OF
the horrors their present rulers nave
brought upon the world, so tnat
they will themselves effect in the
German state the transformation
that is necessary to the safety OF the
world, such action would put an END
to the war peaceably.
But if no such awakening comes
to Germany, or if the German people
are determined to share the guilt
of their rulers and to support the
awful criminality which has char
acterized the whole course OF the
German offensive, then peace can be
accomplished only by the overthrow
of the German nation.

PEACE PROPOSAL AS BLOW TO GERMAN AUTOCRACY

of treaty or the long established
practices and long cherished prin-
ciples of International action and
honor; which chose its own time
for the war; delivered it's blow
fiercely and suddenly; stopped at
no barrier either of law or or
mercy; swept a whole continent
within the tide of blood-not the

posed by His Holiness the Pope

War Must Go on Until Dem
ocracy Has Made Safe
Principles of Peace, Says
President Wilson

Washington, Aug. 29.-President
Wilson has rejected the peace pro-
posals of Pope Benedict. His letter
is a direct statement that the war
must go on until the purposes for
which civilization is now fighting
have been accomplished. Any other
course would be merely to invite
repetition of the present horror
when the Teutonic powers have had
a chance to recuperate.
Stern facts, the president says
must alone be considered, and these
facts, he makes it very clear, all
point to the futility of suspending
hostilities until the German people,
not the present German government,
can furnish such guarantees for the
future as the other peoples of the
world will be justified in accepting.
Impossible Now
The President shows that it would
be impossible to accept guarantees
from the present German govern
ment, whose violations of law, OF
treaties and every principle OF
humanity have proved that its word
cannot be taken.
There could be no more effective
denunciation of the German govern
ment than that contained in the
Presidents letter. 1t is mildly pre-
sented, but loses nothing in strength
because of the manifest restraint the
President imposed upon himself IN
presenting to the head of a great
church the reasons that impel him to
disagree absolutely with the pro-
posals submitted by so exalted ana
conscientious a parsonage,

suggested, the guarantees OF the

There is in the note a strong
appeal to the German people to

quite patent that the necessary guar

could furnish would be based upon
a complete reorganization of the
German government and the over
throw of autocracy.

pontiff looks to the restoration of
conditions as they existed before the
war; the President turns his back
upon these, convinced that return
to the status quo ante bellum could
never bring permanent peace, which
can be secured only by agreement be-
tween free peoples on both sides.
Doom of Kaiser
AS one official, commenting, eX-
pressed it, the Presidents response,
rejecting as it does the views of the
entente allies, sounds the doom of
HohenZollernism. and military dom
nation of peoples. That this can and
should be accomplished without the
destruction of the German people is
one of the striking expressions in the
Presidents note, when he expressly
disclaims any intent to seek punitive
damages and the dismemberme of
empires, or even the punishment OF
the central powers after the war by
gigantic economic combinations
against them.
This shaft is aimed straight over
the heads of the army-controlled
German foreign office at the under
standings and appreciation of the
German people, already manitestlne
many signs of determination to as
sert their right to govern themselves
by parliam entary methods.
1t is assumed here that there will
follow a fierce outburst of denuncia-

outside to dictate to the German
people their form of government

High Water Of the War
Reached by President S
Note, Which Seals Fate of

wilson's rejection of the Pope's peace

thermore, 1t is indicative of the vir-
tual selection of the president by the
world.
The note comes as a climax to the
remarkable series of state documents
IN which President Wilson has
argued the cause of the world democ-
racy against autocracy in the high
court of public opinion, and accept
ed more and more by the people of
all the allied countries as expressing
, their ideals.
There appears to be no doubt that
the United States was selected to
MAKE answer before the world, in
advance of all the others.

character of the Presidents com
munication, its immense Importance
In dehn1tely terminating for the pres

compromise peace, and the assured
lact that 1T represents the views of
all OF the entente allied powers Join
ed with America in the war against
Germany, the time consumed in the
preparation of the reply was re-
maFkably short.
Cold Determination
me feature that is certain to fix
puDllc attention is the cold determi-
nation not even to permit the sub
1ect or peace negotiations to be
preached so long as the evil and
dominating forces of autocracy and
mllltarism control the central pow
ers' 1t is not even necessary to read
between the lines of the Presidents
response to see clearly apparent the
inf1eXtble purpose.
For this reason the President was
not to be led into any discussion of
the peace conditions detailed by
Pope Benedict, though that field was
made alluring by the pontiff's adop-
tlon of some of the proposals laid
down by President Wilson himself
in early utterances. On the other
hand, there was no effort to evade
responsibility for an expression of
view as to the basis of sound and
enduring peace, for the Presidents
response in its concluding paragraphs
restates the purposes for which
America entered the great war.
The radical difference that appears
to exist between the Pope and the
President touches this very matter

to a participation upon fair terms
in the economic opportunities OF
the world-the German people OF
course oincluded, if they will ac-
cept equality and not seek DOM

The test, therefore, of every
plan of peace is this: Is it based
upon the faith of all the peoples
involved or merely upon the word
of an ambitious and intriguing
government, on the one hand, and
of group of free peoples, on the
other? This is test which goes
to the root of the matter; and 1T
Is the test which must be applied.
Known to World
The purposes of the United
States in this war are known to
the world-to every people to
whom the truth has been permit
ted to come. They do not need
to be stated again. We seek no
material advantage of any kind.
We believe that the intolerable
wrongs done in this war by the
furious and brutal power of the
Imperial German government
ought to be repaired, but not at
the expense of the sovereignty of
any people-rather a vindication
of the sovereignty both of those
that are weak and of those that
are strong. Punitive damages, the
dismemberment of empires, the
establishment of selfish and eX-
elusive economic leagues, we deem
ineXpedient and in the end worse
than futile, no proper basis for
a peace of any kind. least of all,
an enduring peace. That must
be based upon justice and fairness
and the common rights of man
kind.
We cannot take the word of the
present rulers of Germany as a
guarantee of anything that is to
endure, unless explicitly SUPPORT
ed by such constructive evidence
of the will and purpose of the
German people themselves as the
other peoples of the world be
justified in adopting. without
such guarantees treaties of settle
ment, agreements for disarma-
ment, covenants to set up arbiEra-
tion in the place of force, terri
torial adjustments, reconstitutions
of small nations, if made with the
German government, no man, no
nation could now depend on. We
must await some new evidence of
the purposes of the great peoples
of the Central Powers. God grant
it may be giIen soon and in a way
to restore the confidence of all
peoples everywhere in the faith
of nations and the possibility of
a covenanted peace.

Hair Often Ruined
By Washing With Soap

Soap should be used very care
fully, if you want to keep your hat
looking it's best. Most soaps and pre-
pared shampoos contain too much
alkali. This dries the scalp, makes
the hair brittle and ruins it.
The best thing for steady use is
Just ordinary mulsified cocoanut oil
(Which is pure and greaseless), and
is better than the most expensive
soap or anything else you can use.
One or two teaspoonfuls will
cleanse the hair and scalp thorough
ly. Simply moisten the hair with
water and rub it in. 1t makes an
abundance of rich, creamy lather,
which rinses out easily, removing ev-
cry particle of dust, dirt, dandruff
and excessive oil. The hair dries
quickly and evenly, and it leaves the
scalp soft, and the hair fine and
silky, bright, lustrous, fluffy and easy
to manage.
You can get mulsified cocoanut oil
at any pharmacy, it's very cheap,
and a few ounces will supply every
member of the family for months

Reply to the Pope

To His Holiness,
Pope Benedictus XIV. Pope:
In acknowledgment of the
communication of Your Holiness
to the belligerent peoples, dated

the United States requests me to
transmit the following reply:
Every heart that has not been
blinded and hardened by this ter
rible war must be touched by this
moving appeal of His Holiness
the Pope. must feel the dignity
and force of the humane and gem
erous motives which prompted it,
and must fervently wish that we
might take the path of peace he
so persuasively points out. But
1t would be folly to take it if it
does not in fact lead to the goal
he proposes. Our response must
be based upon the stern facts and
upon nothing else. 1t is not a
mere cessation of arms he desires;
it is stable and enduring peace.
This agony must not be gone
through with. again and it
must be a matter of very sober
judgment what will insure us
against 1t.
His Holiness in substance pro-
poses that we return to the status
quo ante bellum, and that then
there be a general condonation.

nations based upon an acceptance
of the principle of arbitration;
that by a similar concert freedom

that the territorial claims of
